PM takes full responsibility for all decisions Govt have made
We cannot wait 10yrs for public inquiryI have instructed my lawyers to consider whether anything he did or didnโt do amounts to gross negligence or misconduct in public office & what consequences should follow#Covid

The Prime Minister says "the government did everything it could to minimise deaths."
This is a lie.
It repeatedly rejected the scientific advice to lockdown: First in March, then in September, and then again in December.
The government is to blame for this catastrophe.

After 100,000 have died, the reality is that we had a Prime Minister critically unsuited to a time of crisis. He is someone who may have got by in better times but not when serious and timely decisions had to be made & when administrative ability was required. I leave it there.

Johnson says he "takes responsibility" for the terrible Covid death toll
WHAT does that statement mean?

The UK's Covid death rate is 300 times higher than New Zealand's.
It's 450 times higher than China's.
It's 1,500 times higher than Thailand's.
It's 4,000 times higher than Vietnam's.
They all follow a Zero Covid strategy.
To save lives, our government must do so too.
