Dominic Cummings has failed to apologise after admitting to making a 260-miles drive during the coronavirus lockdown. The chief advisor to Boris Johnson gave an unprecedented speech in the Downing Street rose garden on Monday afternoon.
In the statement he confirmed that he had driven his ill wife and child to Durham - almost five hours away from his residence in London.
The 48-year-old stated that he was not considering his position despite a growing number of calls for him to step down.SNP's Ian Blackford was among those to refer to Cummings' press conference as a 'car crash'.Sorry I'm late.Good afternoon, thank you for coming.
