Following a protest in Milton Keynes which saw members of COVID testing site staff abused, Ben Everitt MP has made the following statement:
“The scenes at the testing centre are utterly unacceptable. The staff and volunteers who deliver the tests are doing an amazing job.
“No one deserves to treated like this at work, especially when they're playing such an important role in fighting this virus and keeping our economy open.
“We will not be bullied, if any good comes from the actions of these morons, it's an opportunity to remind people to get a booster and play your part in protecting yourself, your family and your community.
“We know that up to 90% of people in intensive care with COVID are not boosted. Get the booster now.”
