🚨NEW 🚨
🎄Christmas approaching
🚀Infections rocketing
📢Scientists calling for action
😴The PM asleep at the wheel

Have we learned nothing?

Today we launch our campaign to ensure the #Covid inquiry is open, fair & robust so that we can hold this govt to account. Join us
The govt has shown contempt for truth & transparency time and again
▶️ They refused to tell us what science they were following
▶️ They withheld data
▶️ They abused emergency powers
▶️ They gave friends & donors £££s in Covid contracts
▶️ They made rules which they didn't follow Image
170,000 people have died. More than 1 million are living with chronic illness. It didn't need to be this way.

We're building a coalition of scientists, experts & journalists to ensure that the #Covid public inquiry gives people the answers they deserve
