I’m not clamouring for one.

But there will be one though.  I have absolutely no doubt about that. 

But why should there be one? What makes you so sure there will be one?

Because they have one after pretty much any event where there is a large loss of life. Why would this be different?

Because the government has taken on extraordinary powers have committed to billions of speed and nearly 10k people have died. 
 

There will and should be an enquiry to see what lessons should be learnt. It is critical we have one and that it is not a witch hunt. 
 

General consensus seems to be 7/10 for the government so surely we need to understand what 10/10 looks like.

I think the question is why wouldn't there be one

There's gonna be over 10k dead, hopefully under 20k and it's going to cost a fortune

There's things we would do differently if it happened again

Bozo shaking folks hands for one

This Boris shaking hands business- was it at a hospital?

And if so, why wasn't he told to fuck off by doctor types?

There will be worldwide analysis to see which methods worked, and which didn't, to guide governments on how to prevent it happening in the future. 

I'll be massively shocked if the UK response comes out as being the one to follow. 

At the moment it looks like we were too slow, the messages weren't clear, shake hands ffs, masks dont work, delaying lockdown, taking weeks to write and pass the coronavirus bill.

If we'd locked down 10 days earlier, less people would be dead today, less people would be infected, the end of lockdown might be nearer.

How do you think the families of the dead are going to feel if they see other countries coming out of  lockdown before us with a lower % of the population dead. 

It's going to be the biggest enquiry ever unless we can pull something out of the bag. Time will tell.

Analysis and learning from mistakes or areas we could have improved on given hindsight I completely agree with 

a politically motivated witch hunt can fuck off for me. And anyone that supports that or wants to be involved can get themselves to fuck as well. 
 

what we don’t need is making this any harder for those who have lost loved ones to this disease. And I include myself in that although I will never know the exact truth of whether my dad died of this but I’m pretty sure.

Its gonna be worldwide mate, and I agree it shouldn't be politically motivated, and I doubt that any other UK political party would have dealt with this in a much different way, it's the system that needs to be looked at, we arent fast at making decisions and I think we have a bit of a superiority complex in the UK

Peelyfeet was calling out government inaction

Weeks ago

And he's just a idiot on a football message board

First thing kier starmer did when he got voted in as leader was state how many mistakes the government had made that set his tone immediately. 
 

we need to make sure our nhs is in a better place to deal with anything that ever comes it’s way. That’s what we need from this.  
 

but those frothing are the mouth for other reasons can go and boil their heads

Sorry what bit of that are you referring to?

Politicising it. 

Obviously there should be an enquiry after this is all done, just to see what could have done better and whether the government's action or inaction exacerbated the situation. Things like an immediate full lockdown, PPE issues etc.

It will obviously be politicised but that would be the case whether Tories, Labour or the Monster Raving Loonies were in power.

There's loads we can learn from this. Loads. 

But we have to be mindful not to apply the benefit of hindsight.

Folk have been doing their level best throughout!

Nobody purposefully sets out to allow thousands of people to die..

China lied, 

the borders should have been closed instantly, with people having strict quarantine on the way in

PPE should have been ordered just in case, and then left in a cupboard for donkeys years if needed. 

Lockdown should have been done a week before it should have

 

People make mistakes on this scale, it's an invisible enemy, but the main question that will arise, is where did it come from?

For the most part, I feel they've reacted quite well. However, could they have been more proactive before it hit our shores? Sure.

That's for the enquiry and what we can learn if it ever happens again

If we'd locked down earlier, it would have been against the science experts, though. Would the politicians be better off following scientific advice, or ignoring it?
