LONDON - British police said Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s senior adviser Dominic Cummings may have breached coronavirus lockdown rules by driving 26 miles to a castle with his wife and son though they said they would take no further action.
Cummings has refused to apologise for the trip, involving a 400 km trip to his parents’ property in northern England and another trip to a local castle that he said he took to test his eyes and driving ability after falling ill. They added: “Durham Constabulary view this as minor because there was no apparent breach of social distancing.”
