A lady who lost her father to Covid teared up as she described her father as a "lamb to the slaughter" amid claims Matt Hancock ignored advice on care home testing during the pandemic.
The former Health Secretary has furiously disputed suggestions that he ignore clinical guidance when he decided to make it mandatory to test those entering care homes from hospital but not those coming from the community. WhatsApp messages leaked to the Daily Telegraph showed Mr Hancock said he did not think committing to testing those from the community - including care home staff - added anything and "muddies the waters".
Jean Adamson, who lost her father to the virus in 2020, spoke to Ed Balls and Susanna Reid on Good Morning Britain today about how she felt that her father was a "lamb to the slaughter" over the decisions made.
