UK PM Johnson resists calls to sack Cummings over 400 km lockdown drive
Johnson’s most senior ministers, including Michael Gove, Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab and finance minister Rishi Sunak, also defended Cummings.
“The prime minister’s chief adviser appears to believe that it is one rule for him and another for the British people,” the Labour Party said. “We are still unclear who knew about this decision and when, whether this was sanctioned by the prime minister.” Shortly after Johnson announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19, Cummings sprinted out of Downing Street on March 27 and developed symptoms on the weekend of March 28-29.
