I agree with you that probably the vast majority of people at that party weren't criminals, but there is no way the latest revelations about Cummings have had a big effect in the estates near me.
I'm regularly in the Clapton Park Estate and there have been big groups of young men (demographically most likely to not follow the guidance according to various police forces, and also of course most likely to get caught up in gangs) hanging out in a non-socially-distanced way pretty much since the start of lockdown. Weeks ago this changed to even bigger, mixed sex groups.
I don't think they give too hoots about Cummings-gate, which is ultimately a middle class diversion about something not actually that important, other than in principle (as he didn't actually put other people at risk, although he could have done).
