Boris Johnson has been accused of sacrificing public health “to save his own skin” by cutting funding for free covid testing.
The Prime Minister signalled that the Scottish government would have to self-fund mass free lateral flow tests after April as he announced the winding down of test and trace in England.
After criticism from Nicola Sturgeon and the Welsh First Minister, Johnson said that devolved nations would have to find cash from their own budgets if they wanted to carry on with LFTs.
