2:38Now PlayingWhatsApp messages between Boris Johnson, Dominic Cummings and Matt Hancock have revealed the "infighting" in government as ministers struggled to control the COVID-19 pandemic.
The COVID Inquiry heard the messages "portray a depressing picture of a toxic atmosphere" and "factional infighting and internecine attacks on colleagues".
The second part of the inquiry, led by Baroness Heather Hallett, begins nine weeks of public hearings looking at the UK government's actions during the pandemic.
