As sad as this is for the family, thousands of others had to grieve at home/alone due to the rules he helped set out.

Frankly if that's the excuse, it actually looks worse. Again, thousands have lost people over the last few months and not been able to be with their family.

Yes 100% makes it worse. With children there is the possibility for a little bit of ambiguity, but with a death, well, as sad as it is for the many that have had to grieve in such an undignified fashion, nobody’s welfare (the child) is at risk from that.

she's also attempting to save some face ... but yes thats quite strong for her 

Well, he literally made a fool of her again, and worse, she must know he's lying because he originally told her he went to his parents, which she tweeted as a 'source says' . Next day he changed his story to sister. So now she knows he's lying (that it was his parents not his sister) but can't say because of 'protecting sources'

This really is a huge story. Ministers and backbenchers pissed that they've been forced to defend him and since been bombarded with messages from fucked off constituents. They've so misjudged this one and completely misread the mood of the country.

Anyone beginning to think Cummings knows a few things about Johnson that Boris would rather remain hidden? Might explain this incredible situation.

Aye it crossed my mind earlier. We all knew Cummings had quite a frightening level of power for an unelected advisor but the lengths they're going to do lead you to think there's something else at play. It's doing a real number on their reputation after they ended up with a such a strong majority. It's utterly needless and I think that's why backbenchers are so pissed off.

    • Thing is, I'd have said that as well.   But then she inexplicably ended up on the Wilderness lineup and that changes everything. I reckon if that goes well, which it will, then she's very much in the picture.
    • This has probably been discussed a hundred times already on efests but what constitutes a legend? I know some of it is my age but I don't see eurithmics or Duran Duran as legend status. Neil young or nils lofgren then yes and neither of them have overly troubled the charts. Duran Duran and indeed the eurithmics I would put in the 80s category and whilst it would be ok (human league at isle of wight we're fabulous) they just arent in my mind legend status.  Zombies played same festival- i would take that. 
    • friendly tonight delayed , pitch draining pretty quick to be fair .... not sure it bodes well for other games with potential fixture backlog 
    • Never happen, but an Annie Lennox solo or Eurythmics reunion would make me very happy.
    • Burnham going to go blue labour to ensure he wins makerfield and gets enough nominations from the PLP. How he’d govern is anyone’s guess. Odds on to win anyway so guess we’re not too far away from finding out.
