So you may have seen that the commentariat has decided that one key issue coming out of the Covid Inquiry is its cost (at around £200mn) with all sorts of opining that this really is not not a good use of scarce money...

Well, I'll tell you wasn't a good use of scarce money: the nearly £1.5bn that was lost on contracts for faulty/unusable PPE & the associated fraud(s).

It makes £200mn for something actually (potentially) useful look like pretty good value to me!
