Mystery woman knew. What a filthy piece of toerag.

Johnson's parsletongue on #carehome staff was skin crawling

Too cowardly to face his mess, #Johnson now wants to blame others.

The #CareHomeScandal top 5* Government acts of negligence
(of ~ 50 total)

New to this?
You've got bits and pieces:

🔵 20,000 dead
🔵 Maybe they'd be dead anyway
🔵 didn't the Government throw a ring of protection around
🔵 PPE
🔵 And we defended the #NHS
🔵 it was unprecedented?

Sound right?

Congrats!
UKGov PR has worked.

What actually happened?
Let's just start this year Jan 1, to even do that you need to pretend the existing problems, effects of austerity e.g. reduced base level track and trace capability had no bearing.

They did.

But it helps isolate what Johnson and gang were directly answerable for
Point 1. UNPRECEDENTED

Johnson likes to say this all the time. No one could have seen this coming. It's even started to leak into his #CaptainHindsight sarcasm.

Surprised to learn we were directly warned? 3 times. With procedures. Starting in Jan?⏬

Part 2. FALSE SOVEREIGNTY

Whatever taking control meant it wasn't hiding failings from scrutiny.

Leave EU laws fine. But leave EU research and support which has no legal powers?

ECDC warned Johnson about #carehomes. So we left it.

Taking control...

Part 3. UNTESTED UNTRACED.
UKGov is now informed about the risk of #covid19. Later they're going to claim a ring of protection, based on a new test and trace intiative.

Which is tricky to stand by since they shut our original test and trace March 12th

Part 4. VERY UNLIKELY FOR #carehomes TO BE INFECTED.

Yes until march 13th that's precisely what Government Guidance said.

But you now know they were warned in JANUARY that was not the case.

Unbelievable negligence.

Part5. TAKE BACK CONTROL TO HAVE NO CONTROL

At this point if you're in Government, privately you know you're in major trouble, more people will die due to your negligence.

So do you cooperate to solve issues.
Or waste time on ideology?
Guess.

This isn't even the end of the beginning. The negligence around #Carehomes isn't just the lies about preparation and procedure; it's all promises they then didn't deliver.

Think of the time on lies and cover-ups?

How many would have lived if we'd used that time to take action?
