With the system in chaos, Dido Harding says the increased demand could not have been predicted. Yes, really, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Do you remember Ye Olde Operation Moonshotte, an ancient promise by the elders of this government to test 10 million people a day? My apologies for the leading question. There are absent-minded goldfish who remember that figure, given it was announced by Boris Johnson’s government barely three seconds ago.

KnittedKittie Toss up between her and Grayling... Ooof!

Only if the Guardianistas did self-awareness

Brilliant piece

One of the best articles I have read on the shower of shizzle running this country! The sheer lack of foreseeability comes from the ignorami (has to be pleural) who are driving us head on into another foreseeable disaster MarinaHyde

Has anyone seen the Serco Test Track and Trace contract spec ? If no one could have anticipated the current demand for TT&T was it even allowed for in the contract?

That was most certainly not his decision.

Wow. Absolutely brilliant.

Usual bitter and twisted nedatie criticism from dead end hack and Brexit loser MarinaHyde . No doubt at all that you and your employer are worth at least 10 seats to the Conservatives.

Would have done a better job...

Yes, anyone

Johnson needs to broaden his cabinet instead of relying on diehard Brexiteers.

“There is zero uncertainty about childcare and loss of earnings in the Rees-Mogg household, where even the adults still have nannies. (At the age of 51, Jacob retains the live-in childcare professional who was – formerly? – responsible for wiping his backside.)” MarinaHyde 🎯

Just about the only thing that's kept me sane for the last 6 months has been the thought that I'd get to read MarinaHyde 's take on things...thank you, Marina.

Brilliant, sharpened the razor for this classic.

At this point of the endemic, only the most ignorant/intransigent think contact tracing is a viable tool.

Washington & trump could find the future with an offer they cannot refuse 🧐👽 something like a earthquake season 🕳💫 hope they like the apprentiz 💡📡🎬🎥📲🤗🤗

Little trace of sense in outsourced coronavirus test regime | LettersLetters: Readers are unimpressed by the farcical nature of the UK’s test-and-trace system It's not that bad. Testing just means you have the ability to track the progression of the virus and accurately estimate how many people are infected. Why worry about all that kinda sciency stuff? the Tories will just relabel them 'surprise deaths' or something... NHS is just a logo now. It's being sold.
