Thats exactly what I am saying, if there are 200,000 people getting/requesting tests every day, they either think they have symptoms or as you say are just taking the piss. I currently have no symptoms and would not waste anyones time by just going for a test for the hell of it. It clearly states you need to have symptoms to get a test. Something is wrong with the system if just anyone can get one. But then again nothing surprises me in the UK with the ridiculous protesting etc over this weekend. Just goes to prove is anyone listening to the advice anymore, yes the sensible people of this country are ! Its no wonder why the rest of the world are looking at the UK and do'nt really want us to travel.
