COVID-19: Dead Wrong, a FFS Film.

🔊 Sound ON - Original Score by @DWFilmComposer

Anger over the govt's disgraceful response expressed in film.

Too many lives have been lost/shattered.

They are incompetent and corrupt bullies.

Film has Key Lowlights from Govt Resp :
- 2nd wave is upon us. Measures have been confusing, weak, loose, and late.
- Boris's dashboard (SAGE) has been flashing for over a month. He knows he is late.

COMPARE:
- Our response was disastrous by all measures.
- Nothing has CHANGED!

#Neoliberal deregulation & pure free-market #greed caused the 2008 financial crash, leading to a decade of #austerity which left Britain vulnerable to #COVID19.

Yet since 2009, Britain's richest 1,000 people INCREASED their wealth by nearly £500 BILLION.

#IStandWithManchester
British cities (home to 55% of the population) shouldered 74% of the #austerity cuts, even though care costs have increased year on year, & 99.9% of the UK population did not contribute to the financial crash IN ANY WAY.

Northern English cities were - OF COURSE - hardest hit.
Under the guise of #austerity, successive Governments introduced: crippling student debt; the collapse of affordable housing; the absence of secure jobs; outsourcing; MORE privatisation; unprecedented cuts to disability support & the introduction of the sadistic Universal Credit.
