The Conservative Party

What is emerging re the awarding of contracts for PPE is disgusting. It's enough to bring down the PM and his government.

No excuses.

One of the most frustrating things is how long the press has just sat on it. This should have been the main story running for the past four months and you’re absolutely right, it should be enough to bring down the government. It won’t though, one reason being the changes in the law they implemented at the start of the pandemic that allowed them to bypass a lot of the standard checks and balances.

There should have been alarm bells even then. It’s why I hate this government more than any in my lifetime. It’s not the policies per se (we’ve had plenty of cunts before), it’s the way they’re implementing them by changing some of our core foundations, constitutions and rules of law.

What they’ll do is criticise the speculation and avoid talking about it at all. Initially it was “it’s a pandemic, we’ve got to do everything possible”, then it was “now’s not the time for scrutiny, that can come after” and now it will be “that’s in the past, we’ve got to focus on the future”.

They cannot be allowed to get away with it, not by the press nor us. We’re already going to be paying for the impact of the pandemic for years to come, that’s bad enough without also having to pay for them to line each other’s pockets.

Thundercunts.
