I’m not sure they’re incompetent, I think it’s all calculated and deliberate. Re COVID, not sure what else they could have done. Again re Covid it’s a “storm in a tea cup” in comparison to climate change which they’re effectively doing nothing about.
Best start at the beginning, would you expect a competent government to at least check to see if any PPE purchachased met UK standards, would you expect a competent government to hand out Ł100 mill cheques like confettii. this government did, they handed over all these massive cheques for PPE. the PPE arrived in crates, they opened the boxes and said this is shite, the boxes were hidden away from public view in the hope people would forget about them.
This is what I can't get my head around, people opened those boxes and knew they were not up to standard straight away. did nobody even ask the sellers to at least hold 1 PPE garment up in front of a web cam. we still don't know the full extent of the PPE rip off contracts and corruption, we do know UK PPE sellers offered PPE to the government that must have met UK standards. seems they were either ignored or made to jump through hoops with a long questionnaire. all these questions need answering. BBC had a documentary on the Tory PPE incompetence last week, only caught the last 5 min, shocking. it needs to be shown more often.
Next comes test and trace and Dido Harding, Ł37 bill. someone who was there to protect us," Nobody could have predicted Covid would mutate" Dido Harding. she should have been grabbed by the collar and thrown out. nope. Torys thought nothing of it.
