There is many families without food in the UK. 

The government is doing a great job for all those 80000 who enroled on dhss in one week due to all work stopped.

But unfortunately if you are self employed then the 80% sickness assistance will be given at the end of June. Along time with no wage to feed a family. 

All food prices have tripled. 

Rental accommodation, landlords not getting their rent, more debt and eviction occurs. 

The parks still full of homeless. 

All elderly and vulnerable were meant to get a letter off councils to assist in food provisions. 2 weeks later still no letters arrived. 

Drug dealers have freedom of movement with police so stretched looking after us. Dealers easy to spot going from one house to another selling product. Kids stuck in the house. 

UK not so friendly as every next house is having lock down parties, with groups and loud music. Poor neighbours. 

So on the street life is very much a different reality. I am sure the government will hold up its promises but at the moment families are hungry

As I said before the UK government had given a fund to all local councils to home the homeless during this  crisis I believe it is 3.4 billion and as I stated many are in this situation, because they misuse the handouts they get from the state for alcohol and drugs.

As for repatriation flights, theses are to be paid by the person that is returning to the UK ...

As for the holiday makers you refer to, if  British government had put restrictions on leaving the country the travel company would have cancelled their holidays, so I would consider it is the governments fault.and I hope they enjoyed there holiday.

You seem to refer to this case in Pakistan as your main beef. You state your wife is trapped in the UK perhaps being a carer, she should not have travelled knowing there was a crisis.
