Now that the BBC has mentioned it, is the Govt going to do a proper investigation of why and do something to fix it? Covid, Covid vaccines or not, excess death

Now that the BBC has mentioned it, is the Govt going to do a proper investigation of why and do something to fix it? Covid, Covid vaccines or not, excess deaths should be falling because the excess deaths of previous years should mean a deficit of excess deaths in the following years. Something has gone deeply wrong and the Govt is doing nothing and leaving the underlying causes to BBC speculation. These figures should also be analyzed properly by age group, something the BBC journalists are clearly not interested in even though they have the resources to do.

Hey, it's absolutely not true that the government is doing nothing. They're actively cutting the pay of Nurses, junior doctors, ambulance workers, and emergency services call handlers. This has resulted in a series of strikes further destroying the service as well as causing a recruitment crisis. In response the government is planning to pass legislation to ban strikes that will allow ministers to ban strikes in practically any profession - from tram drivers to the passport office to nurses to border guards. In response to this legislation there will be a general strike, probably causing the government to collapse.
