The rules were somewhat ambiguous, which allowed him to break them (on the "childcare exception").

But his account of his actions is so untruthful. It is obvious to most that being on a remote farm would be a nicer environment to isolate than a house in central London. This simply _must_ have been a factor in his decision. He did not even contemplate seeking childcare support at home, he stated this himself in his press conference, it hadn't even crossed his mind.

His trip was not safe, and should have been used as a last resort. Is that the impression you got? That he had exhausted all other options?

If you had, then I would say you are even more political motivated than those you are saying are looking to give him the "boot".
