Matt Hancock has promised to review fines imposed on families travelling for childcare purposes during the lockdown period. It came as the Prime Minister faced a growing revolt from his own benches over Dominic Cummings breaking strict lockdown rules after a Government minister quit in protest.
Mr Cummings insisted he had not broken the rules but had rather used his "judgement" to do the best for his family. At the daily Downing Street press conference the first question from the public - asked by Martin from Brighton - was about travelling for childcare, in a reference to the Cummings row. "Will the Government review all penalty fines imposed on families travelling for childcare purposes during lockdown?" he asked.
