- Critique of COVID investigation
- Boris’ sister defends actions
- Government errors acknowledged
The sister of Boris Johnson states on the Politics at Jack and Sam’s podcast that although the administration led by her brother committed errors during the pandemic, it also executed commendable measures that “deserve applause.
The COVID investigation involves “scapegoating” government officials, according to a statement made by Boris Johnson’s sister on the Politics at Jack and Sam’s podcast.
Rachel Johnson stated before the former prime minister’s testimony on Wednesday and Thursday that the multi-year investigation is a “show trial” similar to the Parliamentary Privileges inquiry into Partygate.
The Need for Proper Execution
She stated, “Absolutely, it is scapegoating; as I previously stated, the decision to implement lockdown was the correct one.”
“Therefore, their sole legitimate inquiry is whether or not the task was executed properly.” Moreover, if not, then whom shall we hold accountable? Consequently, this will adhere to the structure that has recently characterised every public inquiry.
Allocation of Resources and Government Preparedness
“Instead of learning lessons for the future, preparatory measures should be taken for the forthcoming pandemic.” They are squandering £100 million of taxpayer funds to determine who is primarily to blame for the past. Instead of investing that money in refining our pandemic response or planning for the next pandemic. “I am driven insane by it.”
Mr. Johnson is expected to apologise for the government’s hurried pandemic management while justifying his actions. Changing counsel, the epidemic, and a desire to put experts against each other will help him perform best.

Rachel Johnson asserts that although the government under her brother did make errors, it also executed specific tasks admirably; therefore, “they ought to be commended.”
Nevertheless, her statement implies that the government lacked the necessary resources to confront the difficult decisions, given that the closure impacted private residences and the principal participants were exclusively male.
She stated that the government needed to be more adequately prepared to make such consequential decisions that impacted the nation’s daily existence because they had only four men in the room: Matt Hancock, Cummings, Michael Gove, and the unmentioned individual [Mr. Johnson].
During that period, I found it highly implausible that these four individuals, who have no experience changing diapers or, as Alison Pearson so astutely put it, could not distinguish their children in a school photo, were micromanaging every aspect of our lives.
Any suggestion that the COVID investigation has predetermined its findings is refuted.
Boris Johnson’s response to the COVID inquiry is discussed in greater detail on the Politics at Jack and Sam’s podcast.
