BREAKING: Boris: Cummings behaved 'responsibly, legally, with integrity' with Durham trip
Mr Johnson said: ‘I want to begin by answering the big question that people have been asking in the last 48 hours and that is: Is this government asking you, the public, to do one thing while senior people here in government do something else.
‘Have we been asking you to make sacrifices to obey social distancing, stay at home, while some people have been basically flouting those rules and endangering lives. ‘And it’s because I take this matter so seriously, and frankly it is so serious, that I can tell you today I have had extensive face to face conversations with Dominic Cummings and I have concluded that in travelling to find the right kind of childcare at the moment when both he and his wife were about to incapacitated by coronavirus, and when he had no alternative, I think he followed the instincts of every father and every parent. I do not mark him down for that.
