Minister used disappearing messages – Covid inquiry

A recent Covid inquiry has revealed that a government minister used disappearing messages to communicate sensitive information during the early stages of the pandemic. The use of these messages has raised concerns about transparency and accountability within the government.

The minister in question has defended their actions, stating that they were only trying to protect classified information from potential leaks. However, critics argue that this practice undermines the principles of open government and could hinder efforts to fully investigate the government’s handling of the pandemic.

The Covid inquiry is ongoing, and it remains to be seen what further revelations will come to light. In the meantime, the use of disappearing messages by government officials has sparked a debate about the balance between privacy and public accountability in times of crisis.
