Public Inquiry into Government handling of Coronavirus in UK

Petition Details

A Public Inquiry into government handling of the Coronavirus (Covid 19) epidemic in the UK.

We want the government to set up a full legal and public inquiry into the Coronavirus (Covid 19) pandemic / epidemic in the UK.

This is necessary so as a nation we learn from our mistakes.

Additional Information

The governments handling of the Covid 19 epidemic has been catastrophic that has and is costing many thousands of lives.

It is alleged government policy was for transmission of the virus so the nation acquired "herd immunity" despite its obvious devastating consequences to vulnerable people.

From the start the government has been incompetent, incoherent and confusing.

The government delayed to lockdown, did not close our borders and has failed to protect our medical staff. Costing lives.
