Covid Inquiry

[Reps AJ]

Thought I'd keep this away from the main coronavirus thread as its more politics, less healthy and wellbeing.

To start us off...

Extraordinary. Truly extraordinary. The Cabinet Secretary on his then boss @BorisJohnson during the pandemic : "He cannot lead & we cannot support him...Government isn't actually that hard but this guy is really making it impossible."

"Why are destroying economy for people who will die soon anyway?"

The only extraordinary part of this is Robinson claiming to find it extraordinary.

No communication to the Prime Minister in Feb 2020 for 10 days, which coincided with half term!

Watched some of this yesterday
Government seemed to have a lot of staff sending emails and memos but not doing anything constructive should have acted more quickly and didn’t seem to have any idea what to do when they were aware of covid
No chain of command and very poor communication
Shambles really
Cummings will stick the boot in today

The true legacy of Brexit? Purging most of the senior pro EU politicians and their aides left a team wildly under prepared amateurs to deal with an unfolding crisis.

They just didn’t seem to have any common sense

Lee "Shifty" Cain asked to use plain English by the chair of the inquiry. A masterclass in obfuscation and bollocks.

What is the likely outcome for BJ in all of this… could he face any kind of criminal charges?

It's an interesting watch. Cummings on later.

Regrettably, I believe the stuff that might lead to chokey, like fraud, is scheduled for the arse end of the inquiry.

If the evidence is given under oath ( I'm not sure if that is the case), there's a fair chance that Bozza might perjure himself.

Baroness Mone was unavailable for comment.

jesus. the main inquisitor is quoting a Cummings email, so far, at 11:54 am, he's used the terms "fvck pig" and "****" live on the BBC news!

[Purepalace]

Enquiry will last until at least the summer 2026. I think I'll just read the weekly summaries.

[Pidster]

It would be a missed opportunity if Cain, who used to dress up as chicken, is not asked about Avian flu.
