The Covid Inquiry has laid bare what happens when there is a lack of strong leadership at the heart of Government.
As revelations about the actions of the Prime Minister and in the Cabinet Office at the height of the pandemic are made public, it begs the question how did it get to that stage. Politics is not a game. It has consequences for millions of ordinary people. And in the case of Covid, it cost thousands of people their lives. Yet in Boris Johnson the country didn’t have a genuine leader but someone who wanted to play Prime Minister.
It even involved “laughing at the Italians”, Ms MacNamara, who served as deputy cabinet secretary during the pandemic, said. More worryingly, she also said there was an “over-ideological” approach to decision-making and an “absence of humanity”. The sad truth is that this hubris led to hundreds of thousands of people paying the price. These aren’t punchlines on a satirical TV show that can be just brushed off.
