It's definitely a them and us scenario but the plebs lap it up
could you elaborate a little please . Primarily ‘ who ‘ are the plebs ?It's definitely a them and us scenario but the plebs lap it up
The fact that he set the rules. And he was defended by every single member of the cabinet for doing so kind of does. Not Cummings but the people that defended him are elected representatives of us, the people. Therefore if they say its ok to break their rules. It must be, surely?Just because he broke the rules doesn’t mean the rest of us should do it
I'll give you 3 guessescould you elaborate a little please . Primarily ‘ who ‘ are the plebs ?
The Cummins saga was a big fail by him and the government for not sacking him. But using that as a reason for not following the guidelines is making excuses. There were many people who were doing what the hell they liked and we all know it.No because people would have taken things more seriously if they could see the repercussions.
Once Cummings was let off, lots of people thought why should I follow the rules. He didn't.
There weren’t enough. There will always be law breakers but when those that introduce the laws defend them being broken, it makes sense many more people would think “if it’s alright for them” no questionThe Cummins saga was a big fail by him and the government for not sacking him.

It wasn't a law that was broken but a guideline. That said he was stupid and paid the price and the government went down in a lot of peoples estimation. But like I said, it's not a get out to use it as an excuse.There weren’t enough.

No, but surely you can see how more people decided to break the rules when you see those in charge defending rule breakers. Surely you can understand the human psyche enough to realise it’s legitimising breaking the rules. It’s certain it’s lead to more people breaking the rules than would have otherwiseIt wasn't a law that was broken but a guideline.

Guess some people like to finger point, and need to play a blame game.
Sad.

What's MSM?Brilliant to see isn't it, people finally reclaiming their lives despite the non stop misery piled on by the MSM. Hancock already talking about tiers in June despite a vaccine. This only ends when we say it ends.
MSM, the purveyors of fake news and government propagandaWhat's MSM?
