Dominic Cummings today gave an unprecedented hour-long press conference - and didn't once say sorry for driving 500 miles in lockdown.
In a lengthy statement in the No10 garden, the PM's chief advisor defended his decision to isolate himself and his family in a home on his father's Durham farm.
He admitted a frantic late-night dash up the A1 - hours after his wife fell sick - despite national advice ordering people to "stay at home", especially if they got ill.
And he admitted he went back into 10 Downing Street in person after visiting his sick wife Mary on March 27. Once in Durham, he also confessed he drove 30 miles to nearby Barnard Castle, saying it was 15 days after he got sick and it was to test his eyesight.
