Meanwhile MK Council has been offered the change to become a 'mass testing' area, with the army drafter in to help test up to 10 per cent of the population each week - whether of not people are showing symptoms.

Both city MPs and local Conservative councillors are urging the council to accept the offer. See the Citizen story here .
