In this sense, what is already known, and is emerging even more now, about the Government's incompetent handling of Covid has to be racked up as one of the huge costs of Brexit. But let's not run away with the idea that this is just because Johnson was utterly incompetent. 1/2

Right, this covid inquiry is making us look like colossal, inhumane, incompetent bellends. We need distractions. Yesterday we U turned & will allow railway stations to stay open, today it’s the AI Summit at Bletchley park. We just need a couple of hundred new ideas. Get thinking!

Back to my desk after a comfort break. Looks like the A team van is parked outside our house.

Enraging as an NHS doctor to see Boris Johnson bragging in Oct 2020 that he “no longer buys all this NHS overwhelmed stuff.”

We were hurtling into Covid’s most catastrophic phase - too few ventilators, too few ambulances, a calamitous wave of death.

It’s easy to condemn Boris right now. I mean he wanted old people to die, kept chopping and changing his mind, ran a toxic, ineffective government, partied, let his wife make big decisions and lied to everyone but please let’s not forget - he has that funny, tousled blonde hair.

Perhaps the single most unforgivable detail from today’s testimony.

We knew Covid was ripping through elderly & clinically vulnerable populations. We knew they were dying in droves.

But Johnson didn’t give a damn about protecting them.

He didn’t give them a second’s thought.

And all coming from a woman who makes her parasitic living off the backs of those she bitches about.

Thanks to all my mutuals. I have been inundated with extra codes to find good homes for.

I'll set about in earnest tomorrow evening.

You all rock!

I've given away all the codes I have.

If anyone has some has some and is struggling to give them away, I can find good homes for them.
