What the government said - don't go and visit your parentshttps://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/apr/09/robert-jenricks-messages-to-the-public-we-need-to-stay-at-homeWhat the government did - these rules dont apply to me I can go and visit my parentshttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/09/cabinet-minister-robert-jenrick-visited-his-parents-during-covid-19-lockdown
I've shopped for my parents throughout this, once a week. Live round corner and they haven't left house in 4 weeks. If I lived an hour an hour away id still do it if there was no one else mp or not. Its not like the Scottish 2nd debacle, it's making sure your parents are fed
Why is he needing to take stuff to his parents'?I heard Matt Hancock tell the country 5 weeks ago that the Govt had arranged for supermarkets to arrange deliveries for isolated people. Surely it's not taken them this long to sort it?

That has nothing to do with him going to give his parents medicine as well you know

We live opposite a care home and there are also so sheltered housing nearby for old people. We are always seeing pharmacists vans dropping off prescriptions at the care home and the private houses. This service is a free option. Surely this must be the same around the country and an option in this case? Maybe but we would be guessing we don’t know what issues if any they have, he didn’t go in the house and stood in the garden so is there really a problem? I’m sure there are more pressing problems than trying to find scapegoats
Nice to hear Stanley Johnson talking about his son's recovery on the radio this morning from his house on ExmoorThat's Stanley Johnson whose main home is in London and has gone to his second home in Devon despite the government and local councils telling second homers to stay away.

Apparently his parents were lucky enough to be already receiving help from the local community, but knowing the people down there they probably refused to take them any food
