We welcome the news that Chris Wormald has resigned. When he was appointed Cabinet Secretary, we warned ministers that many would see it as his failures during the pandemic being brushed aside, or even rewarded. Those concerns were ignored. 1/3

NEW: Cabinet Secretary, Chris Wormald has resigned. Time for him to reflect on his contribution to pandemic failures as made clear by the covid inquiry. No peerage please. @cbffjuk.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If the Government is serious about removing peerages from disgraced peers, let them start with Baroness Mone. Faulty PPE killed during the pandemic. Nobody who played a role in selling it should have any role in public life. Accountability now. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

👀 A recent article in @newstatesman1913.bsky.social by @anooshc.bsky.social claims that ‘Britain’s inquiry culture radicalises victims’. If wanting truth & change is what counts as radical, count me in. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 @cbffjuk.bsky.social

Boris Johnson’s old tricks cannot hide his complicity. Our member, Lobby Akinnola, on the disgraced former PM's attempt to wash his hands of responsibility for the deaths of our loved ones ⬇️ www.covidfamiliesforjustice.org/latestnews/b...

Kemi Badenoch has rejected mask-wearing to curb flu, saying she is “still traumatised” by “all the mask-wearing” during Covid. You know what's more traumatising than wearing a mask? Having your family members die because politicians played culture wars with their lives. 1/2

The verdict of the Covid Inquiry is clear: Boris Johnson's negligence led to thousands of deaths. Yet last year, the public was forced to pay Johnson £115k in 'ex-PM' benefits. ⬇️ If you agree it's time we stopped funding Johnson, sign our petition ⬇️ www.change.org/STOPFUNDINGJ...

"Let the bodies pile high" The one promise Boris Johnson kept. Now he wants us to forget and move on. He believes he is unaccountable. We disagree. Sign our petition to stand with us. change.org/STOPFUNDINGJOHNSON

Boris Johnson can moan & whine, accuse us of ‘wangling on’ about deaths, & try to re-write history, but there’s no way back from this: @cbffjuk.bsky.social

It’s a sign of how insane the news cycle is these days that this historic failure of government policy got just one day of news coverage this week. Not saying that’s right or wrong, but it’s astonishing how quickly the agenda moves on these days.

💯 this 👇

"instead of confronting the hard questions Baroness Hallett directs at his leadership, Boris Johnson has instead devoted his column in this weekend’s Daily Mail to an artful concoction of smearing, distraction and airy British boosterism." Spot on @drrachelclarke.com observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

👀 ‘official activity logs appear to undermine evidence that Johnson gave under oath [to the public inquiry].’ Hmmmm @cbffjuk.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Unfortunately there currently isn't a mechanism by which he can be prosecuted for misconduct in public office. But you can sign this petition demanding that he doesn't benefit from the public purse: www.change.org/p/end-public...

Disrespectful to the bereaved, and indeed all those Johnson let down, to respond to the Covid Inquiry's M2 report in a footnote to his column. This man should never be allowed to hold public office again, and certainly should not be benefitting from the public purse. @cbffjuk.bsky.social

My father died in April 2020. I hold Boris Johnson personally responsible for his death, along with thousands of others. All his ex-PM privileges should be removed, including £115k he can claim every year. If you agree, please sign and share this petition 👇 @cbffjuk.bsky.social

Boris Johnson’s silence is deafening, and his contempt for the bereaved is clear. His actions during the pandemic amount to one of the gravest betrayals of the British public in history. His decisions cost tens of thousands of lives that could and should have been saved. 1/4

Our statement following the publication of the Covid Inquiry Module 2 report into Core UK decision-making and political governance:

It’s shocking how much we have forgotten

My Dad escaped the Nazis in 1939 on the Kindertransport. He went to night school then University, trained as a physicist. Married my mum, brought up 3 kids, all work in public sector. Under these proposed rules, he would have been deported. 100% 'performatively cruel' @stellacreasy.bsky.social

Excellent advice and insights from Naomi Alderman on how to survie the information crisis www.theguardian.com/books/2025/n...

Not holding my breath, given how Covid Inquiry chair behaved towards Johnson, Hancock et al when they gave evidence. We must not forget what happened, and we must understand what went wrong in order to prevent the same mistakes being made again. My dad would not have died had gov made better choices

Four years after we created the Covid Memorial Wall in a guerrilla action born out of grief and determination, the Government has now announced it will be made permanent. This is a powerful step towards ensuring our loved ones are never forgotten.

#NHS #covidvaccine policy EXCLUDES health & care workers, & younger people in long term care. Has not taken #longcovid into account. #Canada INCLUDES these groups (& others). Policy takes #longcovid into account. @cbffjuk.bsky.social @longcovidjustice.org www.canada.ca/en/public-he...

We’ve formally written to the Honours Committee calling for Baroness Mone to be stripped of her OBE. No one who profited from unusable PPE while people died without protection should hold an honour. It's in the Government's power to make this happen. They must act now.

At the Inquiry yesterday, Boris Johnson was asked if the Government prioritised the economy over vulnerable children with Eat Out to Help Out. He dodged the question, claiming nobody knows what impact social contact had on the spread of Covid. As shameless as ever.

Harbinder said: “The whole focus has been on a few months of lost learning. My children haven’t been well enough to go back to school for the last three years. We are not even on the radar. It’s almost as if we don’t exist.” www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news... #LongCovidKids #LongCovid #COVIDinquiry

Unsurprising. Can anyone explain why JCVI recommendations for #covid booster this autumn different from Canada’s where 65+ & health & care staff still eligible unlike in NHS? @cbffjuk.bsky.social @longcovidadvoc.com www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Well, it took longer than many of us expected, but in the end it happened. Let's try and not turn the horror in Manchester into an opportunity to advance any and every agenda. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Covid this autumn/winter: ‘Vaccines remain our best defence.’ BUT health & care staff not eligible for vaccine this year 😱 @cbffjuk.bsky.social @longcovidjustice.org @longcovidadvoc.com

This morning, the Covid Inquiry began hearings on the impact of the pandemic on young people. Our thousands of members include parents who lost children and children who lost parents. But the Inquiry has chosen to silence those voices by denying us core participant status. 1/2

Ordinary humans do make a difference. Charlotte Hennessey is you or me. Because of her relentless Hillsborough campaigning, & willingness to form a coalition with other campaigns against state sanctioned violence & coverups, she got to take a national stage. As @cbffjuk.bsky.social proud to stand.

👀 A must see: Charlotte Hennessy’s speech at opening of Labour Party conference on how the Hillsborough Law campaign has been fought & won by an incredible coalition of campaign groups fighting for truth & justice. Proud that @cbffjuk.bsky.social played our part. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq0J...

We are approaching the start of module 8 of the @ukcovid-19inquiry.bsky.social dealing with the effects on children and young people. I want to take this opportunity to remind everyone that the Inquiry Team and the Chair have chosen to deny COVID 19 Bereaved Families For Justice UK, core

Why aren’t Labour talking about the risk to families living in Britains most deprived communities? If you are a single parent mum, who can’t afford to take time off work and rest, you have a 3 factor risk of #LongCovid Poverty and disease have always gone hand in hand. @ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social

Today is a monumental day and I am so proud to be part of the coalition of campaign groups that have helped to make this happen. The culture of state cover ups must end. @cbffjuk.bsky.social @inquest-org.bsky.social @hillsboroughlawnow.bsky.social

Today, after decades of campaigning by the families of the 97 people unlawfully killed at the Hillsborough Football Disaster, the government will introduce the Hillsborough Law to Parliament. The families have campaigned tirelessly to ensure future families don’t face the same injustice.

"Whereas a small change in transmissibility conditions is enough to stop flu in summer, Sars-CoV-2 can basically evolve its way over this barrier" – I spoke to The Guardian about why COVID doesn't seem that constrained by season: www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
