Persistent horn person must be baking

I’m falling about at that. Masterful trolling

this is just utter, utter shite.
Best thing is the horn heckling.

"I was afraid of twitter. Had to run away."

Presumably everyone in the vicinity has to go through some kind of security check? (I'm not actually watching, are they trumpeting from the other side of the railings)

“I drove to see if I could drive”

He did just admit to driving to the hospital with symptoms and picked them up.

He's admitted he broke the rules now.

I'm listening on the radio, so can't see what is happening alas

Really unlucky that he was only ever outside three times, and every time there was someone else who saw and recognized him.

He's in the garden of no. 10 so it will be someone outside.

If it was such a hard decision and he was worried about threats at his home........why was he so cocky and arrogant over the weekend when being questioned about it?

Got to feel sorry for him, happened to find himself in the specific circulmstances that the rules didnt account for

No engagement with his alleged return visits to Durham in late April and May 10th.
I really hope the Mirror/Guardian now come out with photos

I don’t. As I said above, if he’d not been an arsehole yesterday/day before and said this all up front, then not a problem. Instead he’s been a fuck off attitude to everyone asking.

It's all a very reasonable story as told (minus the "driving to check if my eyesight was good enough to drive with two small nature stops" bit) that took an oddly long time to be expressed.

Um, er, I, I, I, ugghhh

(blames media)

Errr

This is surprisingly good questioning by the government PR officer.

Running the clock down marvellously now. Got to ask questions in a specific order. Difficult questioning towards the end and “oh, sorry no time now?”

sorry, that was heavy sarcasm, should of used /s

No appology, no contrition, no sorrow.

Oh and I had to drive 30 miles to see if I could drive; I call BULLSHIT !

WA utter C

Why isn't anyone asking whether a drive, sitting by a river, and then visiting some woods, was breaking the rules?

He drives a range rover, he stayed on a farm so expect there were other 4x4 vehicles around, instead of testing driving on a field at the property he goes for a 30 mile trip to test his eyesight

Also, what about his wife's piece in the Spectator? Why did she feel it necessary to say they were in London if they did nothing wrong?
