Covid 19 Inquiry Government and the civil service failed the public

The UK Government and the civil service “failed” the public due to “significant flaws” in preparing for the Covid-19 pandemic, a public inquiry has found. In its first report into preparedness for a pandemic, the UK Covid-19 Inquiry said there was a “damaging absence of focus” on the measures and infrastructure that would be needed to deal with a fast-spreading disease, even though a coronavirus outbreak at pandemic scale “was forseeable”. A major flaw, according to the inquiry, was the lack of “a system that could be scaled up to test, trace and isolate” people. The report added: “Despite reams of documentation, planning guidance was insufficiently robust and flexible, and policy documentation was outdated, unnecessarily bureaucratic and infected by jargon.” The inquiry said it had “no hesitation” in concluding that the “processes, planning and policy of the civil contingencies structures within the UK government and devolved administrations and civil services failed their citizens”. The Covid inquiry, which is being chaired by Baroness Heather Hallett, published its 217-page report on Thursday. In her foreword to the report, she said lessons must be learned and “never again can a disease be allowed to lead to so many deaths and so much suffering”. The report found: – The UK “prepared for the wrong pandemic”, namely a flu pandemic. Furthermore, this flu plan was “inadequate for a global pandemic of the kind that struck”. – In the years leading up to the pandemic, “there was a lack of adequate leadership, coordination and oversight”. Ministers “failed to challenge sufficiently the advice they did receive from officials and advisers”, and they did not receive a broad enough range of scientific opinion and policy options. – Groups advising the Government “did not have sufficient freedom and autonomy to express dissenting views”, there was a lack of challenge to what was said, and the advice was often undermined by “groupthink”. – The institutions and structures responsible for emergency planning throughout government were “labyrinthine” in how complex they were. – There were “fatal strategic flaws” in the assessment of the risks facing the UK, including a future pandemic. – Emergency planning generally failed to account for how the vulnerable would be looked after, as well as those at most risk due to existing poor health, and the deprivation and societal differences already present in the UK. – There was a “failure to learn sufficiently” from past exercises designed to test the UK’s response to the spread of disease. – The “recent experiences of Sars and Mers meant that another coronavirus outbreak at pandemic scale was foreseeable. It was not a black swan event. The absence of such a scenario from the risk assessments was a fundamental error of the Department of Health and Social Care and the Civil Contingencies Secretariat. The UK government and devolved administrations could and should have assessed the risk of a novel pathogen to reach pandemic scale”. – Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, “there was no exercising of measures such as mass testing, mass contact tracing mandated social distancing or lockdowns”. – The scenario of an emerging infectious disease reaching pandemic scale and requiring contact tracing as a first step to controlling its spread “was not considered”. The report found that the UK’s pandemic plan for flu was written in 2011 and “was outdated and lacked adaptability”. It added: “It was virtually abandoned on its first encounter with the pandemic.” In her recommendations, Lady Hallett called for a new pandemic strategy to be developed and tested at least every three years, with a UK-wide crisis response exercise. She said the Government and political leaders should be properly held to account on a regular basis “for systems of preparedness and resilience”. She also said external experts from outside Whitehall and government should be brought in to challenge and guard against “the known problem of groupthink”. There were more than 235,000 deaths involving Covid-19 in the UK up to the end of 2023. In her foreword, Lady Hallett said: “It is not a question of ‘if’ another pandemic will strike but ‘when’. “The evidence is overwhelmingly to the effect that another pandemic – potentially one that is even more transmissible and lethal – is likely to occur in the near to medium future. “Unless the lessons are learned, and fundamental change is implemented, that effort and cost will have been in vain when it comes to the next pandemic. “There must be radical reform. Never again can a disease be allowed to lead to so many deaths and so much suffering.” Published: 18/07/2024 by Radio NewsHub

Starmer calls for reset in UK Europe relations as he hosts continents leaders

Sir Keir Starmer said he intends to “reset our relationship with Europe” as he hosted leaders from across the continent at a major summit. The Prime Minister is using the European Political Community (EPC) gathering to push for closer security ties and joint action to tackle illegal migration. The summit at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire comes as the new Labour Government attempts to forge closer links with the European Union (EU) after the turmoil of the Brexit years. Sir Keir said: “European security is at the forefront of my Government’s foreign and defence priorities. “We will only be able to secure our borders, drive economic growth and defend our democracies if we work together. “It’s time to reset our relationship with Europe.” Sir Keir personally greeted leaders as they arrived at the 18th century palace. As part of the drive to tackle illegal migration the Government has redeployed more than 100 Home Office staff from working on the now-scrapped Rwanda scheme to focus on a “rapid returns unit” to send people with no right to be in the UK back to their home country. The Prime Minister called for continent-wide action to tackle the international “people-smuggling webs”. He will join a session on migration co-chaired by Italy’s right-wing leader Giorgia Meloni at the EPC summit, which brings together EU and non-EU countries. The Labour Government is seeking a security pact with the EU and Sir Keir is also determined to cement European nations’ support for Ukraine in its war with Vladimir Putin’s Russia. The Prime Minister said: “We cannot let the challenges of the recent past define our relationships of the future. “That is why European security will be at the forefront of this Government’s foreign and defence priorities, and why I am focused on seizing this moment to renew our relationship with Europe. “The EPC will fire the starting gun on this Government’s new approach to Europe, one that will not just benefit us now, but for generations to come, from dismantling the people-smuggling webs trafficking people across Europe, to standing up to Putin’s barbaric actions in Ukraine and destabilising activity across Europe. Under the Government’s plans to respond to the small boats crisis, asylum decisions will be accelerated and, under a new fast-tracked system in the returns and enforcement unit, officials will prioritise those with no right to be in the UK and who have the greatest chance of being returned. A new Border Security Command will use counter-terror powers to fight organised immigration crime, working “across Europe and beyond”, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said. “Dangerous small boat crossings are undermining our border security and putting lives at risk,” she said. “Criminal smuggling gangs are making millions out of small boat crossings and the Tories left us with gimmick rather than grip. “We will work right across Europe to tackle this problem at source, going after those profiting from this awful trade and bringing them to justice.” More than 380,000 people are believed to have entered the EU through irregular routes in 2023 – an increase of 17% on the previous year. Around 41% of those arrivals are believed to have come in small boats across the Central Mediterranean, 26% on land through the Balkans, and 16% coming across the Eastern Mediterranean. The gathering at Blenheim Palace, birthplace of Winston Churchill, is a more informal affair than many international summits. The leaders will attend a reception hosted by the King in the palace’s Long Library, which has walls lined by more than 10,000 books, Sir Keir will have a series of face-to-face talks with key figures including a dinner with Emmanuel Macron and a meeting with Polish counterpart Donald Tusk – who was president of the European Council at the height of the Brexit drama – as he attempts to strengthen ties with the continent. The EPC was the brainchild of French President Mr Macron and involves 20 non-EU nations including the UK as well as the 27-strong EU bloc. Published: 18/07/2024 by Radio NewsHub
