No suspicion about it of course it is. Cannot believe the press are not all over it but they seem to toe the line these days. Not the fault of the pharmacists and providers though, its government farming it out to their mates making rules, and capitalising on the fact that lots of people have a bit more spare cash after 14 months of not going out etc. How many of us have just gone ahead and whacked a couple of hundred quid down on tests that essentially are exactly the same as the NHS ones?What’s incredible is that the free tests have been good enough for insurance to work professionally, or millions of kids in schools, yet not quite good enough for going to a football match or go on holiday.
Will be one of the scandals of the pandemic period at some point for sure. Family of 5 doing a week trip away currently looking at around a grand in tests. Guess the Tory cunts had to find a way to claw back some of the furlough money.
