I'm not for one minute suggesting there's not a problem with covid testing but I was shocked by the amount of fake news going around in my local area.
I've lived in my area for 36 years and we had the biggest traffic gridlock ever. Our council recently installed a very bad traffic scheme that has caused havoc and gridlock, then through no fault of the council there was a major water leak which in conjunction with the new scheme caused a total standstill with no way of escaping. Ok I understand you're not bothered by that so I shall skip to the fake news.
Sky news went to a covid testing centre in the area and reported a covid scandal that the centre was the cause of the gridlock.
Then my local MP and councillors tweeted exactly the same for political gain and to pretend the **** traffic scheme they put in played no part in it.
Ok so no one on here gives a **** about a traffic jam (I wouldn't if it were in your area) but what shocked me was that Sky were able to come to my area and report a covid scandal that never existed.
For me this a case of crying wolf, next time I hear a Sky report I will take it with a pinch of salt.
I then switched to the BBC and by chance they had sent a reporter to report on the **** traffic scheme I mention and he got some of the key facts wrong making that fake news.
Just to finish my rant I would like to announce my MP is a **** and so are the councillors.

That sounds about right. If there’s one place you can manage social distancing it’s outdoor pursuits!!!
But its OK for people to virtually stand on each other’s shoulders in a pub 
What’s happening now I could see coming a mile away. Stop, start, stop, start. We should have just took a month stop, the whole nation on lockdown. We need to get business back up and running. This is going to have a major impact on the economy and jobs 
It’s has the potential to make all this furlough pretty pointless, £'s, see if they extended it now!
I think we should just isolate the vulnerable and crack on with heard immunity. Let’s all these morons socialise, get it and get on with it. Sounds callous but we are in danger of it just going around and around here 
Let’s not forget travel into our country either. This needs some control because this has the potential to make everything we do pointless. How we ended up with the bloody virus!

Is that the same voice of the people Jacob Rees mogg who told the people who survived grenfell that their dead relatives should have used common sense and ignored the advice of the fire service?
I know I've missed his words of wisdom

Why do they do it to themselves , the next dose of idiocy and buffoonery , operation moonshi*
10 zillion test's per day !
I can remember , as a kid , a lad who we named spinbad ,he would have a strange and wonderful crock of shi*e for us every week , he once said that there was a spitfire in his attic , also once his garden flooded and when the water subsided there was a shark left flapping around and he had to kill it , thinking about it , he had blonde hair and was around the same age as Boris , hmmmmm

If the website is playing up have you tried calling 119 to request a test, tell them your computer is playing up 😀

This might be awkward, parvenu Jacob Rees-Mogg wants people to stop carping.

If that is a via a code that you enter then you may be disappointed. I had a code and it made no difference, you enter it on the government portal, then go into the same system as everyone else it seems.

We've been told that school has access to a government portal where we can request priority testing for staff and members of our household.
If we or one of our household displays symptoms school submits the request for us and then contacts us to confirm it has been done.
We were told this on Tuesday before Hancock said anything in parliament
