im glad we're having an inquiry to highlight this, everyone at the time thought Johnson was completely competent and handled everything with diligence.

mostly we're hearing selected snippets that confirm bias, while nothing is actually done to address known issues. in 3 years time we'll have a large report with hundreds of recommendations that the government of the day will take years to chew through.
Should 100% stuck with Boris...Of course everyone who had read anything about Johnson knew. We all know what the issue is, but I'm not sure how you address the fact that 50% of the electorate are more stupid than the average person but still have a vote
If we choose to elect a moron to run the country, what else can a report do other than highlight it
Personally, I think a benign dictatorship is the way ahead
It’s slow but essential. Those in charge, whether politicians or medical must be held accountable.
What is essential about gossip?
Hi Nadine.
I don't recall Labour screaming from the rooftops exclaiming 'THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT, YOU FOOLS'.Congratulations. That's the best interpretation of 'they're all the same' that I have heard in a long time
You obviously missed the bit where the scientists explained that the 'narcissistic orgy' (the words from No 10, not mine) at the heart of Government were completely incapable of understanding simple scientific concepts, figures and statistics.
Yep, nobody really knew what to do
idea has merit, tricky finding that benign dictator without the power corrupting them.Of course everyone who had read anything about Johnson knew.

Great answer.It would have been fairly pointless shouting because there were in opposition and had no influence, given the majority you and your associates had given Johnson
You seem incapable of seeing what has been said other than what we already knew about Johnson etc, even when it has happened in the last 3 daysCongratulations. That's the best interpretation of 'they're all the same' that I have heard in a long time

Nice backtrackThat will be because they are scientists and will have different views on the information in front of them. 'Experts' and their expertise are essential to complex decisions, but that's as far as it goes.
So, are we 'fed up with experts' or 'being led by science'. Shirley it can't be both
It's probably for the best
No surprise at all to me that you were headhunted.In the field I worked in, I worked with some absolutely superb 'experts' who wouldn't agree on the most basic of things, but were superb at what they did. Which was why I listened very closely to what they said, and then made my decisions
When Johnson was dithering over the first lockdown, Labour were in the middle of a leadership contest. Once Kier Starmer was installed, Labour acted like a wartime opposition, and were supportive of Covid related measures as far as they felt possible, despite that, Labour were calling for the second lock down weeks earlier than it was introduced.
And willing to keep in place for the next five years.
Starmer is not the messiah, but he would have to be a very, very, very naughty boy to give us a worse ride than the current Tory Party would.
