What the petition asks

The governments handling of the Covid situation has been appalling, in light of the handling of this crisis I know I lack any confidence in the government to be able to handle our economic recovery after this let alone Brexit on top of that. It is time to review our government
Handicapping ourselves during an emergency for political gain (https://www.politico.eu/article/britain-top-diplomat-simon-mcdonald-uk-opt-out-of-eu-ventilator-scheme-was-political/)
Money wasted on plane painting, PPE contracts being given to shady companies in offshore tax havens (https://inews.co.uk/news/health/government-ppe-contract-private-equity-tax-haven-494587), blame passed from our leaders to frontline workers. If our leaders can't put the country first we must ask ourselves who might.
