The full extent of the incompetence of Boris Johnson’s response to Covid is being laid out in extraordinary fashion at the public inquiry into the pandemic.
Just in case you missed any of it, here’s a minute or two from yesterday (apologies for Dominic Cummings).
Dominic Cummings is an utter prick but he’s excellent at swearing.
The Covid Inquiry is giving a terrifying insight into the useless fuckpigs in charge during Covid. An absent PM obsessed with killing the elderly. Staff getting pissed constantly.
