Keyworkers & #NHS heroes who got us through 2020 despite @Conservatives not providing PPE are in poverty & going to foodbanks

Billionaires buds of @BorisJohnson like Serco have made Billions.

Our NHS is on it's knees as the bodies "pile high"
How is this
"taking back control"?

"Rising levels of fuel and child poverty rightly hit the headlines but they are not the only struggles people face in 2021.

Food poverty, which is a shortage of money to put the basics on the table, is a shameful indictment of modern-day Britain."

"The poor decision making highlighted two key issues. One was the purchase of PPE to ensure that those in the NHS and social care were protected from infection by COVID.
What we now know is that this purchasing involved cronyism and incompetence."

"It's a choice between heating or eating,

We have more foodbanks than McDonald's in this country,

We're a G7 country,
How can that be?"

"my son @BorisJohnson has lost count of his children"
Johnson,
Talking about getting the population under control in the 90s

I wonder why #Covid_19 is being allowed to
"run through the population"
As @Conservatives policy?

#ToryCovidDisaster

"Let the disease run through the population"
And
"take it on the chin"

The "news" media knows Herd immunity has always been @Conservatives policy because @BorisJohnson went on TV and openly said it.

So ask yourself why they're pretending otherwise.

Here's @BorisJohnson congratulating @MarcusRashford on being a more effective opposition than @Keir_Starmer

Then they all the well fed (on our money) MPs laugh.

Because peasant children starving is funny when you're on £80k & unlimited expenses.
