Good Morning and welcome to Saturday, Let's get started.

In America, it seems that you have a big choice in November and that is to elect either an old orange narcissistic sexual predator in the midst of dementia who clearly sees all women no matter the age as a trophy partnered with a god botherer of a VP to win or an old white gaffe prone suspected sexual predator who promises the world with the intention of partnering up with a female VP to win. My opinion is vote for Biden to be president then six months in impeach him so the female VP can start doing the job properly and also once Trump is out of office find out all the skeletons in the closet and prosecute him to the fullest of the law making him the first ex-president or president to be jailed.

As example of Trump's criminality he has gone on record and deemed houses of worship as essential services, so should be opened which will only spread the virus quicker. This has been proved this week in Germany, where the virus spread rate has increased after church services were held taking the stated precautions of social distancing and sterilisation in to account. In the same god botherer speech he attacked state governors who have deemed liquor shops and abortion clinics as essential services, but have deemed churches as not essential, telling them that he is overruling them once again and declaring that houses of worship are essential.  This is a man who never leaves his white castle or mingles with the lower classes and takes unprescribed medication to fight a disease it wasn't designed for. America please ignore this persons advice.

Anyway let's check in on dear old Blighty. So the big headline is how the PM's chief aide Dominic Cummings travelled with Covid-19 symptoms from London to his relatives in Durham during lockdown. A spokesperson has said it was "essential" for Mr Cummings to ensure he had childcare while he and his wife were unwell and that he had behaved reasonably and legally when he made the 260-mile journey from his London home to County Durham during the lockdown. The spokesperson also said that Mr Cummings sister and nieces had volunteered to help so he went to a house near to, but separate, from his extended family in case their help was needed. His sister shopped for the family and left everything outside. Labour has called for a "clear explanation" for Mr Cummings' actions and that the government should use the daily Downing Street COVID-19 press conference on Saturday to provide answers over the reports adding that the public have made extraordinary sacrifices during this pandemic and the lockdown, so It cannot be one rule for those who set them and another for the British people. As stated in the press there is a clear divide between the have's and have not's in this country as more and more celebrity's, politicians, rich and entitled people decide they are above the law and flaunt any guidelines set out as if they weren't expected to adhere to the rules. 

In other news the primeminister has been urged to appear before a panel of senior MP's as he as yet to respond to a letter requesting him to schedule a two hour slot well before the end of June by the committee's new chairman Sir Bernard Jenkin. In his letter, Sir Bernard said the committee would allow MPs to subject the prime minister to "more detailed scrutiny" than is possible in the Commons chamber, so in other words they can control the narrative unlike in a live televised debate where MP's could throw legitimate questions at Johnson and the public could hear the answers first hand making their own mind up about Johnson's guilt or innocents. As the prime minister is yet to be grilled by the Commons Liaison Committee - made up of select committee chairs - since taking office in July. Also it was added by the Tory MP for Harwich and North Essex that at this difficult time, it is of crucial importance that Parliament is able to hold government to account. This is a primeminister who has a dubious past trying to hide from tough questions he does not want to answer publicly by using different excuses like the one he used last October stating he was too busy trying to deliver Brexit. Clearly he is inept at doing any of his elected roles whether it be mayor, member of parliament, cabinet minister or primeminister, this man is just useless at the job and is a privileged wannabe.

Rant you tomorrow!
