Offer Upgrade  User ID: 78914394  United Kingdom05/25/2020 04:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Some of her tweets are very interesting: Like countless others, J.K. was left furious after reports emerged claiming Boris Johnson’s senior aide had broken the government’s lockdown rules. Cummings is said to have fled his London home to seek help from his family looking after his four-year-old child, after his wife became ill with Covid-19 symptoms. Various cabinet ministers – including the prime minister – have publicly backed Cummings, claiming he acted within the guidelines as his journey was classed as essential. After foreign secretary Dominic Raab claimed that an explanation had “been provided” on Cummings’ journey adding that “those now seeking to politicise it should take a long hard look in the mirror”, J.K. called him out on Twitter. She tweeted: “So those who make the rules get to break the rules? Your government explicitly told us not to visit elderly relatives. Look in your own bloody mirror.” The author also mocked the way lockdown rules appeared to have been rewritten by various ministers in their defence of Cummings, tweeting: “Update to lockdown rules: parents who think they might have coronavirus should drive straight to relatives’ houses halfway across the UK or risk their children being taken into care. #StayAlert.” [link to uk.yahoo.com (secure)]    |
