'Government is failing to understand the scale of the problem' - Justin Madders on Test and Trace numbers

“There is nothing 'world beating' about this. With millions of people going back to work and schools this week it is concerning that the system is not improving.

“It is also worrying that the Prime Minister does not even know how test and trace is performing, and shows the Government is failing to understand the scale of the problem.

"This does nothing to provide the public with the safety and assurance they need."
