How do you think the government has handled the coronavirus pandemic?

With Covid holding sway over our lives since March – five long months – do you think Boris Johnson and his ministers have done a good job?

How do you think PM Johnson and his chancellor Rishi Sunak have fared in protecting jobs, businesses and our economy for example.

People in Hitchin, across North Herts and the entire country spent March, April and May in complete lockdown.

Respite has come in stages this summer as lockdown restrictions have been eased somewhat, but the 'new normal' appears to be with us for a while yet, perhaps even to the end of 2020 and beyond.

Your opinion matters to us – went want to know how you feel the government has handled the crisis so far?

How do you assess the way the government has gone about minimising deaths, their effectiveness in testing and tracing not to mention in providing PPE, as well as their handling of lockdown rules?

Also, how do you think the opposition parties have fared during the pandemic. Have you been impressed by the way new Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has performed.

We want to hear from YOU.
