This is the enquiry that they set up and are now taking to court. Pretty much everyone is represented and already the hapless tories are getting a good kicking.
Today we learned about the chaos in govt and the lack of preparedness.
This was not an accident.
Services were run down to save money leaving many people vulnerable.
There was no plan for a pandemic
There was no stockpile of PPE.
Hospital wards had been closed to save money
There was a lack of equipment.
The govt failed to react to initial reports
Johnson didnt take it seriously and missed all the meetings.
Scientific asvice was not followed
Political imperatives were more important in shaping policy.
Communication was poor.
Clinicians found out things from the nightly briefings
Trust brokedown between central andlocal govt
Fraud in govt contracts was evident on a grand scale
And people died.
It promises to be uncomfortable for the tories and scary for the rest of us.If the govt cant keep us safe what is their point.
