Escaping the country

People say Boris Johnson's father's exodus to Greece is another example of the elite flouting quarantine restrictions, just like Dominic Cummings.

One rule for them and one rule for the rest of us.

However, in this case, I have sympathy for Stanley Johnson's decision to remove himself to a safer environment.

After all, he knows his son better than anyone else and was not surprised by his son's “world-beating” response to covid-19.

Be honest, under the same circumstances, wouldn't you too want to escape the country as soon as possible?
