More covid mess up with Indian version in UK
The first problem is that UK did not put India on the red list. They allowed flights to come in and thousands of people arrived. Pakistan and Bangladesh were on red, not India. Health Secretary said this was because the other countries had 3 times more cases. The evidence says this is not true.
The people arriving from India had just as many cases. The second problem was the Track and Trace system did not tell the local authorities about who had positive tests. then when they did tell, they missed out the contact information. People were not in isolation and their contacts were not warned and tested. Track and trace cost £37 billion but did not work properly. Now we have a surge of the Indian version.
Windrush people are dying waiting for compensation from the Government

But UK did not give them the correct papers. When the Conservative Government came in after 2010, the decided to get rid of people who were not UK citizens. People who lived in UK for 50 years and brought up their families in UK, were deported. It was wrong and they should receive compensation from the UK. But now we discover that the system to make the payments is so slow that 21 people have died waiting for the Government to pay up.
