If, as I suspect, you are referring to the government's handling of the Covid crisis, I think Labor are wise to keep away from it for two reasons -
One - it is rightly considered unseemly to make political capital out of a situation beyond anyone's control where large numbers of people are dying, and
Two - if Labour was to criticize the government, the not unreasonable response would quickly be "And what would you have done differently in the same circumstances?" to which Labour would have no reasonable response, since they don't know any better either.

What good news , well done Keir //
Clearly you have given yourself a mandate to come on here and beat the drum for Labour, however undeserving (and they absolutely are undeserving!) they are of your fervent support.
Fine, crack on, but the election is a long way away, and as Mr Corbyn proved so comprehensively, sitting on the other side making noise does not win you an election.
