John52 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 So, after the 3 million useless testing kits BoJo bought (have we got a refund yet *-) ) we seem to have been scammed again https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/23/less-than-10th-of-ppe-order-arrives-in-uk-despite-downpayment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late - Dominic Cummings has been sacking them and replacing them with his 'wierdos and misfits' that are more 'on message' :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpstart Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The company in Turkey didn’t have an export license so the goods were supplied by Turkish Government . You would have thought the civil service checked this out before hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barryd999 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The full expected load would have weighted over 80 tons. They sent one plane which max can only take 40 tons anyway, so they must have known beforehand they were not picking up what they told us they were picking up otherwise they would have sent at least two planes.

Hate to think how much we are paying for them. All the PPE was bought up whilst BoJo was asleep at the wheel, so now its a seller's market :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh well someone’s got shares in it. Perhaps there needs to be an equalising of the financial burden when this is over and if the Conservatives can’t or won’t do it roll on Labour.
