Ex-advisor to Boris Johnson gives scathing criticism of UK government’s COVID-19 response
Description
May 26, 2021
In a blistering attack on the Johnson administration, Dominic Cummings, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s former top aide, told a parliamentary committee on Wednesday that Johnson would have been willing to have himself injected with the novel coronavirus, so skeptical was he that COVID-19 posed a threat. He also told lawmakers the government was completely unprepared for the worst public health crisis in decades, and that ministers, including the prime minister, were on holiday in February 2020.
