With Starmer clearly stating that the government advice quoted was "up to the 12th of March" Johnson, then decides to continue digging with, "I have sought to build the maximum political consensus behind our response to Coronavirus." - CONSENSUS? What planet are these clowns on?
"I'm surprised the Prime Minister queries the advice of his own government up till the 12th of March...the deaths in care homes for April was a staggering 26,000, that's three times the average, 18,000 additional deaths this April" Even Matt Hancock was agreeing with Starmer!
"Government advice, kept in place until 12 March, said it was "very unlikely" care homes would be infected - however SAGE committee minutes in February said "there is a realistic probability that there is already sustained transmission in the UK."

The UK Statistics Authority has written to Matt Hancock expressing its concerns about clarity, trustworthiness and standards around the govt’s figures on testing....
Many will remember that the same Authority wrote to Boris Johnson twice over his misleading use of the £350m a week stat. He didn't give a shiny shite then, he won't now; even though their lies this time are contributing to thousands of needless deaths. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
Is it any wonder that the Statistics Authority has written to Matt Hancock? Yet again, the government has once again massively missed its own testing target with only 65,337 people tested yesterday...

@darrengrimes_ do you recall a video posted on your Twitter & Facebook accounts in the run up to the 2019 general election?

It was a slick affair, seemed way beyond your pay grade?

The premise was a Corbyn victory, Lab/SNP coalition, followed by Scottish independence.

1.
The soundtrack used (without permission?) was by @murraygold for RT Davies’ @BBC drama, Years and Years. It also featured @BBCNews, @Channel4News, @krishgm, @SkyNews, @BBCScotland, @NicolaSturgeon

And was quickly promoted by Toby Young @toadmeister:

As said, this was pro-produced, not knocked together by amateurs. And then, as swiftly as Toby Young promoted this slick piece of right wing Tory propaganda, the video disappeared. Deleted by from Twitter, Facebook & Darren's website.

Luckily, we screenshot a scene or two.

Secret government report produced after the 2016 'Exercise Cygnus' that highlighted the UK was not prepared for a pandemic, and forewarned of the Covid-19 crisis in care homes, is being published by the Guardian.
theguardian.com/world/2020/may…
The report contained 26 key recommendations. Martin Green, the chief executive of Care England, said "If they had put in place a response to every one, we would have been in a much better place at the start of this pandemic.”
A government spokesperson said: “The UK is one of the most prepared countries in the world and, as the public would expect, we regularly test our plans. What we learned from previous exercises helped us to rapidly respond to this unprecedented global crisis..."
