If you agree that there should be a criminal investigation into how over 37 billion pounds was allegedly spent on Test and Trace please like and retweet.

In the Telegraph: some Christians who think that non-Christians are incapable of tackling moral questions. They are so convinced of their moral and intellectual superiority. What an objectionable headline.

Justin Welby making excuses for the Downing Street cheese and wine 'do' on News at Ten: "They were the people making the rules. They were also the people bearing the strain" NO, @JustinWelby, these were the people "bearing the strain" Quite appalling comment you made tonight.

The contrast is shocking
On the left is the last photo I have of my mum alive in May 2020. Living alone with serious illness, she faced the pandemic with stoicism. We went for a walk around her local park. When she suggested sitting 2m apart in her garden, I said: better not, it’s against the rules.

Ever wonder why the #NHS is overwhelmed when there’s a crisis? Hospital beds in England In 2000 - 240,000 In 2019 - 165,000 Now - 103,000 We have amongst the fewest hospital beds/head among developed countries. Thats why

Wow!
Worth five mins of anyone’s time, especially if you’re a serving @metpoliceuk officer.
Today, Keir Starmer addressed the nation and said: 'We must do everything we can to preserve and protect the NHS.' RT if you want Labour to commit to NHS renationalisation! 💙💙💙

For goodness sake @Kier_Starmer, the Prime Minister is not fit for office. Call for him to step down.
People across the country followed the rules, even when that meant being separated from loved ones. They had a right to expect the government was doing the same. To lie and to laugh about those lies is shameful. We have a Prime Minister who’s socially distanced from the truth.

It’s hard to know which videos we post will get widely shared. I posted this one this time yesterday, It’s been ‘most watched’ on @BBCNews for hours and has 2.2 million views here. Thanks if you shared or watched. Produced by Michael Cox.

Boris Johnson hosted multiple parties when the country was in lockdown over Christmas. Yesterday he claimed that was within the rules. He is taking people for fools. It’s one rule for the Conservatives and another for everyone else.

Johnson lied in the Commons again today. It used to be a resigning offence. Having an amoral PM has normalised it with dreadful consequences for democracy which can only begin to be repaired when he and this rotten cabal are gone

If (in the very unlikely event) the UK government had an independent enquiry into its handling of the Covid pandemic, I expect the findings would be very similar to those in Sweden. Maybe that’s why it isn’t happening any time soon.
