Is it not time everyone stopped getting so hot under the collar over the Cummings matter?. I think it is.
It's really quite a simple matter but is being complicated by "why did he do this?", "why did he do that", why did he do the other?", "why didn't he do this?", "why didn't he do that?", "why didn't he do the other?", "he should have done this", and so on and so forth, ad infinitum.
I'm not outraged, furious, angry, annoyed or even slightly miffed.
I see it like this -
1. Cummings was faced with a set of circumstances which required some form of action.
2. He looked at the problem, made a decision, made interpretations to suit his problem (therein lies the problem) made a plan and put it into action.
3. Whilst he may not have broken the law, he was no doubt involved at least in formulating the Stay
At Home slogan which scared millions of people into staying at home since 23rd March to date.
4. As at 3, he may not have broken the law but he is wrong morally and has no alternative but to
step down from his post or he should be removed.
I think it is a bit late now for Durham police to change their minds, they should have dealt with it properly in the first place. I think their investigating breaches of the Highway Code is also a waste of time, any evidence, if there was any, is long gone. Besides, it's not law, it sets a standard to which drivers should adhere. However, when was the last time you read it?. For me, it was the day before I passed my driving test.
A change of matters now.
It seems that we may have to put up with live football being broadcast on Saturday and Sunday. I don't have a problem with
a game but it may be five live matches on a Saturday and five on a Sunday. That's at least 900 minutes or 15hrs of football in two days!. Aaaaagggghh.
On even a lighter note, the Yanks are launching a space-shot tonight at around 9.53 pm and at around 9.55pm it will be over Wales. I'll take a look.
