Hound.It's inevitable that there will be an inquiry. You don't have something as big as this and not have a formal process of examining decisions that were made.Ideally, given that we have the fourth worst death rate in the world, you'd hope that there's be some assessment of previous decisions going on now, while we are still in a position to influence where we go from here. But when pressed on that issue last week, Jenrick repeatedly said this was not the time to be judging past decisions.
I am not surprised you didn't get the figures from the BBC as they don't have discussions giving both sides anymore Billy, at least talkradio give both sides to an argument. But hey you and your buddies wouldn't know as you don't listen to it, just say it is right wing drivel, when you really don't know, or are you a secret listener and don't admit it.
While doing a job at home this afternoon I was listening to Radio Sheffield.They had a bloke on who I think said he was the former head of public prosecutions.He had lost his brother to COVID last April.He is lobbying for an inquiry into the governments handling of the COVID situation.He said that he doesn’t have any suggestions of what the eventual outcome might be.

What left-wing presenters give both sides of the argument?
Of course they are. They are coming from a far further right position than the Govt.

Now you are asking for opinions on motives rather than observation of facts.For what it's worth, my opinion is that Talk Radio exists for the same purpose as their far right forerunners in the USA. To shift the Overton Window to the right. But that's just my opinion.
Hound. You've expressed amazement on this multiple times. Personally, I'm amazed at people who don't listen and read widely but have strong views. For what it's worth, tomorrow I'll have two hours in the car going to and from my place of work where I'll be setting the lads up to start on a £1/4m contract that we won last week. In the car, I'll be listening to various news channels. Like I tend to do on my walks every evening after work. But that's just me.
Hound. Well you've no need to worry on that score. Might be better to address substantive points rather than spend your limited time expressing your opinion on my time management.
