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.

    • but it is loyalists doing the rioting...so he can also make a point there.
    • I don’t know what was going on with SEE tickets for Phoebe Bridgers this morning.. I had a presale code, got into the sale after queuing for 15mins with the green bars of doom.. but no map to choose seats from, just categories like “aisle seat” and “reserved seat” and sometimes a drop down of the section, but you had no idea where in the section the seat was… then you clicked through and either got “no tickets available” or a captcha which just kept looping no matter how well you selected the thing it was asking you to identify.. then eventually it spat you out to another “not enough tickets available” message.. I went through that loop SO many times.. I was doing captchas endlessly.. it was totally borked.    in the end I went back to the email with the presale code in, it then directed me to ticketmaster rather than see, still for Manchester, and I could then see the tickets on the map .. get them in my basket etc ..but there was only upper tier left.. so going to try my luck on ticketmaster for the main sale.. SEE was total garbage!
    • For the 25th anniversary would be hopeful for  Pavement, Neutral Milk Hotel. Guided by Voices .  Modest Mouse. 
    • Yeah we're in prime random announcements time so worth keeping an eye out for anything revealed 
    • Wonder what that could be. Too early to announce Geese…
