Hi all

The UK OGN has tweeted a response to the following comments made by Boris Johnson:

“We discovered too many care homes didn’t really follow the procedures in the way that they could have but we’re learning lessons the whole time…”

The link to the UK OGN tweet is here: [https://twitter.com/OpenGovUK/status/1280430549044256768?s=20](https://twitter.com/OpenGovUK/status/1280430549044256768?s=20)

The tweet reads as follows:

“It is wrong apportion blame without evidence, @BorisJohnson. Blame is not a matter of opinion. Publish relevant and verifiable information. Then direct citizens to it, so that we can form our own view.”

Please like / retweet if you agree.

Good to see the U.K. OGN trying to do something to hold the U.K. Government to account.
