    Good story, didn’t know. Lovely look behind the corrupt scenes. However it is more than 4 years old. It’s undoubtedly still relevant and ongoing in one way or another, but it’s not breaking news.

      It’s relevant in that the inquest into the Government of the time’s handling of the covid-19 pandemic has just concluded. Their findings come as no great surprise to anyone. Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson -to refer to the self serving sack of festering syphilitic fucks by it’s full name- is responsible for the government mishandling of the whole affair.
