This is what you have been writing to us about this week.

Like many others, my daughter and her fiancé had to postpone their wedding during the Covid lockdown. They decided to go ahead at a second attempt on July 3.

We hoped that the rest of the Covid restrictions would be lifted on June 21. In the end they weren’t and so we have had to reduce the numbers of guests at the wedding from 100 to 76 and lots of other restrictions are in place including no dancing or singing.

But, as with most people, we accepted that without implementing the government’s rules on Covid as a whole, we would all become more vulnerable to infection and some may be hospitalised or even die.

You can imagine how angry I was when we discovered former Health Secretary Mr Hancock had disregarded his own rules in his much publicised relationship with one of his aides.

It seems that yet again, as with Dominic Cummings, there is one rule for the government and their advisers and another rule for the rest of us.

In some ways, worse than that was the three week delay in preventing flights from India coming to the UK.

We know that there was a rapid rise in Covid cases in Pakistan, Bangladesh and particularly India from the start of April. These were subsequently found to be caused by the more infectious Indian or Delta variant.

On April 2, flights from Pakistan and Bangladesh were placed on the ‘red list’ and prevented from entering the UK. However, the flights from India were not put on the red list until April 23.

This delay led to a rapid increase in Covid cases in the UK and ultimately the delay in lifting restrictions on June 21.

It seems likely this delay was because Prime Minister Johnson was planning a trade trip to India on April 24 and didn’t want to upset his hosts.

The country has yet again paid for Tory Prime Minister Johnson’s dithering, delay and poor decision-making.

The Tory government overall have lost the confidence of many of us who diligently implemented all the Covid restrictions over the past year.

It now did seems unlikely that the Tory government will be able to persuade many people to accept Covid measures in the future if they are necessary. They have lost all credibility.
