To my knowledge they were set up to house people who would otherwise have been hospitalised- obviously there wasn’t enough capacity in our existing hospitals so they were the alternative- like an overflow car park Ultimately they were only used to administer the Covid vaccines- got both of mine at the Washington one

There was a huge staff shortage before they were built …

… but Boris just wanted to boast about building hospitals in a fortnight.

It was obviously ridiculous from the start.
 
Has this actually revealed anything that we didn't know already?
If Jezza had won the election, would he have dealt with it any better?
Corbyn was a hopeless politician but Tory cronies wouldn’t have lined their pockets with millions of stolen public money that’s for sure

23,000 died of covid, how many died of flu or heart attacks? How many died of covid in care homes where no covid was detected? How many would have died if there was NO lockdown like Sweden? Sweden had a slight upsurge of deaths, nothing like 23,000, and after covid the country just went back to normal. Without all of the financial scandle that followed the British lockdown. IMO the lockdown was a complete shambles. The covid enquiry an even bigger expensive shambles!
The enquiry was certainly an expensive shambles for the Tories and their sympathisers as it demonstrates their incompetence and corruption.

For the the rest of us hopefully lessons can be learned.

Sadly, in a few years time it will have all but been forgotten and a new breed of grifters, sorry, politicians, and businessmen, will be there for any opportunities.

Possibly but the politicians were Tories and their corruption was off the scale.

Hopefully the country can get some of the money back from the Tory thieves and cronies

There's a weird conundrum developing in life.

A sliding scale of competance against character has evolved in an almost mathematical way.

Boris Johnson was excused lying to the public, failing to attend meetings, breaking the law, etc ...

... because he was a 'loveable buffoon' who went on the telly being funny.

I wouldn't want the Sunderland owner to be a zany character, drinking in the Wheatsheaf and wearing a Sunderland shirt at SJP ...

... I may be boring but I prefer him to be a serious and determined man who acts in the best interests of the club, not his own ego.
