PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
Dominic Cummings (1 June 2020)

That this House calls on the Prime Minister to seek the immediate resignation of his chief adviser, Mr Dominic Cummings; notes with concern the damage Mr Cummings' breach of clear lockdown rules during the Covid-19 pandemic has done to public health advice and public confidence in it; further notes that other senior public employees have resigned or been removed for similar breaches of lockdown rules; and further calls on the Cabinet Secretary to conduct a swift inquiry into the sanctioning of this breach of lockdown rules and any measures taken within government to restrict full transparency on this matter; concludes that there cannot be one rule for the Prime Minister’s senior advisers and separate rules for everyone else.
