The British government to mask (sic) their failures on PPE stock levels & supply
Made up unsubstantiated slurs on it being misusing
“Everyone should use the equipment they clinically need, in line with the guidelines: no more and no less.”

They simply made up the slur
They prepared this slur
They approved this slur
They calculated this slur
They executed this slur

After all if you can weaponise the fear of police cuts in 2009 by opponents
Win power
Then cut 20k
When upward crime trends that were warned of in 2009 come true
you accuse Police of crying wolf
Then anyone can be the target of deflection or slurs

Now here is the thing
I agree with the concern behind the slur
the correct PPE for the correct situation in line with the correct guidance should be used

Medical & care staff who have taken oath
You slur them with unsubstantiated garbage
Thank you Matt
For confirming just how desperate and hollow you and your government are

Every day you reach for a “sparkler” or a dead cat at the daily press briefing to deflect, dodge, divert attention from simple basic questions
Whether it be Care badges, military staff in camo uniform or vacccine trials
Everything is calculated for spin

And if all else fails regarding stock levels
You threaten the whistleblowers
Or ignore them

So you can look at previous pandemic exercises to see how well the U.K. was prepared
Oh no sorry you can’t
The government are suppressing that report

You could look at why the value of the disaster reserve stocks went down during a decade of Austerity
You remember that decade of austerity right - the choice of a party it’s consequences disguised by lies and racism

A reminder
“Analysis of official financial data suggests £325m was wiped off the value of the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) emergency stockpile, reducing it from £831m in 2013 to £506m by March 2019.”

Imagine being culpable in the reduction of your pandemic stockpile by 40%
Not 1%
Not 5%
Not 10%
But 40%
Now even at 40% - I would be satisfied if a government chose to do that and explain why and stand by that choice

But they haven’t
They won’t
And again
That says so much about them
They won’t

A reminder the Conservatives Under Cameron claimed They would "fix the roof when the sun is shining" while the alternative was "taking a massive gamble with our future".
Well....
No point fixing the roof if you cut the first aid box supplies in half

Oh yes and on concerns expressed by the Leader of the Opposition
The Conservative party can’t play the ball
The Conservative party can’t play the ball
Or the desperation on PPE scheme spin
Now I feel for Matt Hancock
He knows what his party is
A rabble of cheating lying racist incompetents who will do or say anything for self and power
Like 50,000 more nurses
Or 40 new hospitals
Or 250,000 tests a day

How do you row back from 👇
Hancock referred to war veterans saying that proroguing parliament would go against “everything that those men who waded on to those beaches fought and died for”, adding: “And I will not have it.”
