Rejected petition Hold a public inquiry into government preperation and handling of covid 19
Hold to account those decision makers who awarded their friends and relatives large private contracts. Those who counted single gloves and mops as PPE. Those who decided no regular testing for blue light services and carers. Those who ingnored the warnings and allowed thousands of needless deaths.
More details
It was clear that covid was a global pandemic, and in europe on its way to the UK, and the government did not close borders, order PPE, make PPE in the uk, awarded contracts for testing to private companies instead of using the NHS with higher processing capacity and allowed us to have the largest mortality rate in europe before actioning lockdown. self employed people are still under supported, and the NHS needs drastic funding and support now.
