All those people not self isolating / spreading the virus 08:42 - Jun 17 with 986 viewsbluelagos

You know, the ones half the country seem to think are responsible for around 125k dead people...

Well turns out, our own government treasury, at the peak of the second wave, was suppressing publicity of financial help available to some people who were struggling to afford to isolate.

The source are govt emails leaked to playbook.

That is on top of the govt doing so little to offer financial help to people supposed to be self isolating.

Any wonder self isolation rates are so low when many people can't afford to stay home?

Incompetent w@nkers. Still, Richi is the saviour eh?

Now that is the kind of thing the Government (at least the Treasury) can unquestionably be blamed for doing wrong during the Pandemic.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

Along with dithering about international travel, PPE(both acquisition and guidelines), subcontracting out to the patently incompetent, confusing and misleading communications, delayed lockdowns that meant longer lockdowns....

but still the vast majority of the electorate won't care will they.... it beggars belief the support these charlatans get but i've never known such an inept and corrupt UK government. Forget the opposition for a minute and whatever you may think of them and just look at the individuals that currently govern us. It's scary!

Indeed. Altho with the first of those, they would have to have been shutting international travel down in case of new variants, not after they were identified - as by then it's too late.

Tho as Lagos pointed out some time ago, if they'd been more forthcoming with information about mutations and why travel was a bad idea, people would have understood better and not done it.

Is that the same treasury that prompted the eat out to help out scheme, and has also short changed the education recovery program by 11 Billion or so.

Surely not.

At least that was a (misguided) govt policy, what they are doing, here they are actually undermining what another govt department is trying to do (Track, trace and isolate)

Those departmental tensions should be worked out/resolved at cabinet level and then they should all go ahead with the agreed policies. Not undermine each other ffs.

Be interesting to know if Richi Sunak was aware of and/or sanctioned the policy? If so, that is incredibly serious imho. Suspect this may rumble for a few days yet...

Yep. Eat Out, demonstrates, that when he wants too, Richi can personally publicize stuff.

So it is a useful thing to use as a contrast.

You'd think. But, as with everything else they do wrong, I'm fairly sure it will be obfuscated somehow and their supporters will continue to rally around them. Or it'll be ignored and responded to with whatabouterry. At the moment they seem untouchable.
