UK Inquiry Into Bad Thing Finds Thing Was Bad
COVENTRY, ENGLAND—Concluding the extensive process of examining the circumstances surrounding a bad thing that left the UK public reeling years prior, a public inquiry has concluded that the bad thing was indeed bad. "Following extensive hearings and examination into the bad thing that happened a few years ago, in which many were left traumatised while the British public felt an immense frustration with how events unfolded, this inquiry has come to the ultimate conclusion that the bad thing was most surely bad," said the inquiry's chair Sir Mark Harrow as he shared the findings of the 367-page report produced by the inquiry. "There were failings by many state bodies that did not appropriately do their jobs, nor share vital information that could have prevented the bad thing from happening. There was a fundamental failure here in how Britain's model of bad thing prevention functions, and that, in this inquiries view, is why the bad thing was able to happen." Sir Harrow went on to ask the UK government take onboard the recommendations that the inquiry put in its report, such as changes to agency structures that work to prevent bad things so that they can stop things from becoming bad before they do so. At press time, British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer promised he would act on the inquiry's recommendations, before proceeding to throw the report in a drawer alongside every other inquiry that also made recommendations that were promised to be acted upon by previous governments.
