Leaked messages between British politicians have caused controversy as they shed light on their true opinions and actions during the COVID-19 pandemic. The messages reveal a lack of transparency and honesty from some of the country’s leaders.
In one message, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson reportedly complained about having to wear face masks, despite evidence suggesting they help prevent the spread of the virus. He reportedly said, “I can’t stand it anymore” and suggested that the U-turn on face masks was “silly.” This contradicts the government’s official stance on the matter and raises concerns about the politicians’ willingness to follow scientific advice.
Another leaked message from Health Secretary Matt Hancock revealed that he was aware of a shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers early on in the pandemic. He reportedly messaged a colleague saying, “We are down to our last 200 gowns” and later wrote, “I fear we will run out of gowns tonight.” This suggests that the government was not adequately prepared for the pandemic and failed to prioritize the safety of frontline workers.
In addition to these messages, a group of Conservative MPs were found to have criticized the government’s handling of the pandemic in a private WhatsApp group. They reportedly referred to the government’s response as “shambolic” and “a disaster,” which further highlights the lack of faith some politicians had in their own government’s abilities.
These leaked messages have sparked outrage and criticism from the public, with many calling for greater transparency and accountability from politicians. They also raise questions about the government’s handling of the pandemic and whether their actions were truly in the best interest of the public.
