What will remain galling for those still suffering the lingering effects of Covid, those who lost loved ones, and those who suffered from the isolation, is that all of those named and shamed by the report will, in all likelihood, suffer no personal material detriment as a result, and will continue to enjoy their comfortable lives. Their reputations, such as they are, will be further undermined, and they will (or more accurately should) feel some sense of shame. But that’s the most they will suffer.

What the work of the Hallett inquiry once again evinces is a great sense of injustice, of innocent people wronged by a negligent political culture. Is there any hope that Mr Johnson and others will face up to what they did wrong?

And Mr. O'Brien.

Mailwatcher in “agreeing with Piers the Cunt” shock …….

And now a third of the electorate wants the dregs of that administration to be senior ministers in the next government.

Stopped clock, Abers. Stopped clock.

And worse. I think Hancock probably tried his best, unwise personal relationships aside. His successor would be someone like Victoria Atkins who was last seen trying to accuse the government of causing a farmer's suicide.

His best? An incompetent charlatan and a crook. People like him don't have a 'best'.

My friend the consultant thought he wasn't too bad. You haven't seen Victoria Atkins lately.

Once Bozo did engage properly, they played it pretty straight during the first lockdown. Which of course is no more than we should expect, but I don't know if you'd get that now. You'd have Kemi and all immediately going for the cheapest politics. Which is what Bozo did at the start of the winter lockdown, of course.

And not one of them will be imprisoned for so much as a day, be fined so much as a minute's income nor suffer the slightest bit of inconvenience. Their apathy, incompetence, arrogance and stupidity killed tens of thousands and not one of them will think they did anything wrong.

I think he was bent as a dog's hind leg and incompetent to a murderous degree.

And getting something half-right after a year of getting it disastrously wrong does not absolve guilt or evade blame.

Lou Reed wrote beautifully of these beasts;

Men of good fortune, often cause empires to fall.

No apology, no contrition, no self-reflection. Just why he was right and everyone else was wrong. Oh, and won't Putin be laughing himself silly at us.

An absolute arsehole, a pile on the national colon, a haemorrhoid of entitled pus.

You missed out anal fistula, Andy.

For entirely different reasons, I hate him as much as I hate fucking Thatcher

Shame is the only sanction these people face.

Shame?

He should be taken out and disposed of...

I don’t think the Hallett enquiry’s objective was to answer either of thse two questions, was it ?

Dissembling cunt.

Chinese scientists did it and ran away.

The former prime minister was questioned on his activities between 14 and 24 February 2020 when he appeared at the inquiry in December 2023. He said: “There wasn’t a long holiday that I took. I was working throughout the period and the tempo did increase.”

But official activity logs appear to undermine evidence that Johnson gave under oath.

I'm old enough to remember when it was bad for Starmer to say he didn't like to disturbed on Friday evening.
