Originally posted by SueEllen View PostThey are both old so maybe he was her carer or vice versa. It was explicitly allowed under the rules.Police spoke to the Mayor after the visits came to light and gave him advice about the restrictions in place. Speaking to BBC Radio Leicester last month, he apologised for the error of judgement and admitted 'it was setting a very bad example'.
But he pointed to other 'high-profile people' who had flouted the lockdown.
Sir Peter told the BBC: 'I don't think anybody would claim that there was anything in my behaviour that ran any risk whatsoever of spreading the virus.
'It can be certainly interpreted as against the spirit of the lockdown, if not against the regulations.'
he said he was 'ready to apologise' unlike 'some of the high-profile people who are far more influential in setting policy about this than I am'.
Officers said they would not be taking further action against him because the allegations, which the mayor admitted, were 'historic'.
Did try a bit of Cummings blaming!
Can't investigate historic crimes unless it involves Cliff, the BBC and a Helicopter.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Originally posted by BlueSharp View PostIt look like Leicester is the first to return to lockdown, any ideas why lockdown failed? Has the virus mutated, lockdown not been followed, did the major refuse to lock down the city in some wired Republican support of Trump?
(I've lived in both those areas at times over the years and they're really nice communities to live in, so don't run away with the idea that they're some kind of poverty-stricken slums. They may not be the wealthiest districts in the city, but they aren't run-down hellholes by a long way.)
