Rachel Johnson defending her brother on @lbc.co.uk currently just blamed the "statest establishment" for the failures.
"He's getting all the blame and none of the credit" and "he did his best."
Really Rachel? Well his best was appalling. This wasn't a gold club tombola. It was a pandemic.

Chris Mason is what happens when a Hospital Radio DJ, whose sole qualification appears to be a sort of soporific inoffensiveness, is somehow promoted to BBC Politics Editor - a position that demands unflinching insight, objectivity, and sharpness. It's like a puddle trying to be the ocean.

And naive people want to claim that Labour and the Tories are the same...
Tories have announced plans for £47bn annual public spending cuts to pay for tax cuts & tax rebates.
This means:
• 67% cut (£7bn) to international development
• 25% cut (£8bn) to civil servant costs meaning a quarter of jobs could be lost
• £32bn cuts to the welfare budget
