The delayed lockdowns, PPE failures, billions wasted on test and trace, the cronyism: the public need answers, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

They need the anti-protest bill enacted first. They know what's coming to them.

It's OK. More nukes will save him.

Pandemics never end when humans say so.....the virus is always on the lookout for Covid Idiots... Plenty around....esp in Little England...so yes another lockdown is due again and again and again.

Move on from COVID. Move on from Brexit. Move on from corruption. Move on from lies. He wishes

it will never happen - 'I feel the time has come for us to march forward to the triumphs of the future and forget the tragedies of the past' or some such guff and no resistance worth a damn

Why Bother? Sir, Lord, Baroness, Chilcott, Hutton.... they are called 'Independent inquiries' and then set up and established with curtailed parameters by the PM of the day. The member of the establishment appointed, a trusted poodle who will slap a wrist or two.... Pathetic.

Of course he does. We must never forget 130,000 DEAD

More desperation from a failed Guardian hack rafaelbehr 84% of care homes are owned by private sector and they failed themselves. The Government had to bail them out. Obesity cannot be laid at the governments door - personal choice. Bames - well say no more.

dismiss incompetent PM

Starting to believe that’s why the roadmap out of lockdown is so bloody long. The second it’s back to normal everyone will be asking what he did with all our money and the decisions he made. By Friday all the age groups responsible for 99% of deaths will have been vaccinated.

We can assume a bill making such inquiries illegal will be along shortly then.

Safernoc934 And how many died before it was 'officially' here? Many got it at back end of 2019.

To be fair to BorisJohnson at the time there were too many roads to take but none had final destinations.

Of course he wants to 'move on'. He knows himself that his 'management' of this pandemic has been appalling.

No we don't need to pay someone to state the obvious.

devalara44 why does my brain say that mask is photoshopped?

After their 3rd wave in France, Italy, Germany - we’ll all be 125-150k deaths. Every nation has failed to be prepared in some respects. Perhaps the inquiry could wait until 2022 when the pandemic is over? Seems foolish to hold it now mid-pandemic.

He wants to move on to what exactly? Stealing yet more public money? He's doing literally nothing else anyway.

Yes, but not with £2billion spent on it and a simple outcome of ‘lessons will be learned’.

It's time to move on we don't want this over our heads for more years to come like Brexit. Is an enquiry going to bring back the life of my auntie🙏🏻🙏🏿🙏🏼

1/2 Right now EV in Germany & UK has lifetime emissions of: 34t CO2 🔥 (petrol 33t) by 2030: 30t CO2 (25% cleaner electricity) Is this decarbonization? Multiply by 88M cars: 2640M tons of CO2 Or is it a 'net zero' path to +4C degree world? ! Analysis in next hidden comment

The world needs to be scrutinised especially China

Of course he does! Now that the NHS has come to the rescue with the vaccinations he needs to move on to something else to f**k up!

No point in spending even more money on a whitewash. Let’s face it, they’ve played the whole thing perfectly, the master stroke was turning the police on the innocent. You now can’t even protest in the street about the corruption.

Yes ...mainly an inquiry into 'of or with', 28 days, gerrymandering of statistics and ignoring the likes of Profs Gupta & Ioannidis and the Cult like belief in SAGE & Ferguson... All of which made a monumental mountain of madness out of a manageable medical molehill.

Investigation?! Aha! A very convenient way to avoid responsibility. Until then, yes, either the donkey dies or the padishah. I have a simpler solution - to prosecute Oxford for their poisonous vaccine and buy Sputnik-V in Russia. How do you like it? Ahahahaaa!

idem in Gallia

Move on from another catastrophic failure. He would wouldn’t he!

Yet again this pathetic rag making the news rather than reporting it. Anything to match its political Labour supporting agenda

BorisJohnson you can’t run from investigation

The crisis has shown the UK at its worse. Crap gov decisions, inept civil servants, agenda driven media, a substandard NHS, whining ethnics, a migrant dependent, fragile economy. And us, and our lack of health and hygiene awareness.

Actually 140,000 deaths with Covid on the death certificate

Boris done a good job , best in the world at giving the vaccine, England is the most overcrowded major country in Europe, worst obesity problem, always gonna happen

Why is he still PM? This is sick.

I bet he does. Highest deaths and rates of death don’t warrant another term when the dust has settled. Buck stops with him.

No, it has to be a royal commission or else the government can frame the terms and scope of the inquiry in such a way as to make it meaningless.

It's boring to sit at home alone, looking for someone to spend time with
