Covid inquiry reaches ‘bittersweet’ final day of witness testimony Campaigners say ‘hard-hitting, clear-sighted and damning’ inquiry – the most expensive in history – ‘absolutely has been worth it’ * ‘A new normal’: inquiry’s key findings on how Covid changed UK society Bereaved families have marked the final day of witness testimony in the long-running Covid inquiry by saying government “incompetence, chaos and callousness is now on the public record”. Matt Fowler, co-founder of Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice UK (CBFFJ), urged officials to use the inquiry as a blueprint “to take brave, decisive, urgent action” and warned the country was still not prepared for a future crisis.

Covid inquiry reaches ‘bittersweet’ final day of witness testimony

Courtesy of Sunderland Unites .....

All the #Brexit promises made by the Leave elite 10 years ago have been broken. As this letter in the Newcastle Chronicle today points out, supporters are now making up spurious - and often contradictory - excuses for staying out of the #EuropeanUnion.

...and again in the Gazette.... ten years on since David Cameron announced the referendum have you noticed how the language of Brexit is changing? No more talk of "sunlit uplands" that's for sure!

Wide agreement #Brexit has failed – even #Farage says so. But those behind our #EuropeanUnion departure aren’t yet ready accept blame.

As this Sunderland Echo letter explains, they need scapegoats. Ignore their fictions about ‘blobs’, ‘Remainers’, ‘traitors’ and ‘elites’. Let’s #RejoinEU instead!

On 09/02, the House of Commons will debate the following Petition, which was signed by over 113,000 U.K. voters: “Call for a Public Inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy”
to support the idea of a Public Inquiry.

*Russian involvement in the Brexit referendum amongst others.*

🤢 FIVE WINNERS. MILLIONS LOSERS.

🚨Brexit beneficiaries:
Johnson - PM
Farage - fame
Putin - a weaker UK
Epstein - ???
Steve Bannon - Far right Growth

Everyone else got higher prices, fewer rights, and a divided country.

We'll just let that sink in! #EpsteinFiles #Brexit

So how do you think it's going?
This was the day NE workers like in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet no longer had the right to work in Germany nor 25 other EU countries (or vice versa). The huge brexit queues in the airport may have put them off anyway!

🚨An internal FBI counter-intelligence briefing flagged Britain’s failure to investigate Russian interference in Brexit.

This wasn’t gossip.
It was briefed to senior US law-enforcement officials.

The UK didn’t take it seriously.
Others did.

BORIS JOHNSON: If Labour MPs try to reverse Brexit they will be walking into a hail of machine gun fire - and if that's the fight they want, bring it on! But they should heed my warning before things get bloody..

Jo Cox was murdered before the vote by a far-right terrorist & this is the language this complete disgrace chooses to use

Merry Christmas to EU! 🇪🇺🎄🎅

Still buzzing! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
