A staggeringly unacceptable quantity of the United Kingdom’s population lost their life during the coronavirus pandemic, and plenty contracted the virus through no fault of their own.

At a time when the virus was new to us all, and the information not yet within our knowledgebase on how best to protect ourselves against it, the population of England relied on one voice to inform us on how to stay safe: head of the tory government, Boris Johnson.

The problem, however, was that Boris Johnson was head of the English government at a key period in the country’s history, and undoubtedly failed it several times over.

At first he stood at the podium chanting slogan after slogan, but only ever followed his own: its us, and them. Never before have the elite so blatantly looked after their own, and cared not for the population at large. Failing to hold members of his cabinet for their actions, and putting the interests of his own above the interests of the nation.

This book details the first ten months of the pandemic within England, and aims to highlight some of the key failings of Boris and Co throughout a critical period in the countries history.
