I have finally lost patience:
Dear Ms Richardson,
I listened with incredulity and rising anger last night to the Prime
Minister claiming that the Government had done its very best in
tackling the COVID-19 pandemic. That the country has, by a long
chalk, the worst per capita performance in the World clearly puts
the lie to that.
Some things the Government has got right - the furlough scheme, and
early and rapid innoculation being two such. However, the catalogue
of errors is shameful: uncontrolled borders; botched community
testing; delayed implementation of lockdowns; woeful lack of PPE;
procrastination over face mask wearing; eat out to help out; the
Cummings effect - the list goes on.
Please would you take every opportunity to persuade the leaders of
your party to stop lying to the country and induling in self
justification; and to admit that mistakes have been made and to learn
by them?
Yours in hope,
