The long-awaited independent report into how well or badly the government handled the Covid pandemic has been published. Chairwoman of the inquiry, former judge Baroness Hallett, said the UK's response could be summarised as "too little, too late". The report looks at whether lockdowns were timely and reasonable, and what impact rule-breaking at the heart of government had on public confidence. 5 Live listeners shared their thoughts on the report with Nicky Campbell.
