Labour accuses government of ‘moving goalposts’ in bid to meet target of 100k coronavirus tests per day
LABOUR today accused the government of “moving the goalposts” after ministers claimed to have passed their target of 100,000 coronavirus tests per day by the end of April.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock announced at the Downing Street press conference that there were 122,347 coronavirus tests by the last day of April, which was on Thursday.
But guidance on the official government website appears to have changed in the days before the deadline.
