'Rishi Sunak can't shrug off explosive Covid claims - our country needs answers'
The allegation that Rishi Sunak said during Covid that the Government should “just let people die” is an explosive one.
The current Conservative Prime Minister cannot simply shrug off this dynamite charge.
It was documented by Sir Patrick Vallance, No 10’s former Chief Scientific Adviser, after the view was attributed to Mr Sunak by Dominic Cummings – who at the time, was Boris Johnson’s most influential aide.
We got used to this type of callousness from former PM Johnson, now a busted flush. Mr Sunak was Chancellor in the pandemic. Now he is in No10 and could face a ferocious backlash unless he can convince survivors and grieving families he didn’t hold such views. His appearance next month at the Covid inquiry will require answers, not stonewalling.
