Dear MP - HMG has NOT done everything that it could to fight the pandemic

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,
