What Cummings could have said in his #cummingsPRESSconference rather than the aggressive, non-apologetic approach he took which surely will enrage the public further (a thread)
Good Evening Everyone,
Firstly, let me thank you all for coming and I& #39;m sorry that I& #39;m late.
My apology doesn& #39;t stop there, I would like to apologies to everyone in the UK who has sacrificed so much over the last few months

My apology doesn& #39;t stop there, I would like to apologies to everyone in the UK who has sacrificed so much over the last few months
People have had to show resilience and determination, empathy and courage to bide by the rules to protect our most vulnerable and wider society - thank you for the lives you have saved. I
I would like to issue a sincere apology to the public, front facing and key workers. When we starting experiencing undiagnosed symptoms of covid-19 we panicked and thought how can we isolate ourselves to the best of our ability in an area and residence we are lucky to have access
I& #39;m conscious that not everyone has this opportunity and I apologise that this behaviour doesn& #39;t attach to the morale of the rules we set.
There will rightly be anger, in this time we panicked and I thought only about the safety of my family and others. I am sorry.

I have considered my resignation but at this time and in this pandemic I will continue to give my all for the greater cause, reastablish trust in the rules I wrongly flexed and will look again at my role when we are in a safer place.
Thank you for your time, understanding and please for the journalists present let have a Q&A Session to clarify further issues outstanding.
Ends.
Ends.
The above he did not. Anger will continue. No empathy shown and no apology.
Questions will now move to the PM and #Lockdown queried further.
Not the best response from Number 10 if I& #39;m honest
