In Politics, one thing is constant. Cheating on your spouse.
And as Professor Neil Ferguson, a member of the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) has shown, it’s not just MPs who love it.
Yet I have to say – aren’t we all getting a wee bit bored of this now? The public scandal, the moral outrage, the humble apology – it’s a predictable routine, and doesn’t interest me much at the moment.
Growing up with the internet as a constant presence in my life, I’m all too aware that someday it may be me who is making a public apology at my front door, my sullen spouse by my side, looking as though they’d rather be attending my funeral.
So with my future indiscretions in mind, I implore you all to give Professor Ferguson a break.
