    It's nice to know that people are looking at deaths and % testing as some sort of competition.

    League tables and all.

    It stands to reason that "some" country will have the highest death rate and highest/lowest % testing of population.

    No ****ing wonder humanity is ****ed with this mind boggling take on things.

    "Yeah but we have less deaths than youse so that's reason to celebrate".

    **** me stupid! It's ****ing tragic.

    It's certainly nothing to be sneezed at.

    I agree, none of that matters. What matters is people using bad maths to score points. And the people liking their fundamentally incorrect point scoring are even worse.

    The comparison was not a total of tests of population, it was a comparison of tests per million people at a specific date I.e. it was the testing rate per million people .

    the chart stated tests per million people for the 4 constituent parts of the UK tests was 136k

    Scotland , as a separate part, accounted for 66k test per million people (of that Uk per million count of 136k)

    take away Scotland , rest of Uk rate would be approx 70k per million people .

    The post by some twitter non entity is flawed .

    If you then used the rate v total population of England then s course the total would be higher , probably 10 x higher .

    That is not how the data was represented but if true then that would account for your seemingly terrible grasp of maths.

    I think it’s your terrible grasp of reading that graphic posted ... You’ve failed to understand it .

    Just re-read, it states that the UK as a whole has tested at roughly double the rate that Scotland has. There is no ambiguity in the wording. If the information is false and you know this: fair enough.

    Some of the so called great actors, just seem to turn up as themselves, Roger Moore for example, whereas the likes of Barker and David Jason can play a character without you constantly thinking of a different one they played. Pop Larkin and del Boy, Fletch and Arkwright etc.
