A taxpayers' fortune was handed to celebs to send the test and trace message viral, the Sunday Mirror can reveal. As the much-criticised Covid scheme failed to hit targets, reality TV stars pocketed thousands to plug the message to their followers.

Yet some posted pictures in which THEY appeared to flout social distancing rules. Love Island stars Chris Hughes, Shaughna Phillips and Josh Denzel were paid for telling Instagram followers testing is “free, quick and vital to stop the spread”.

Downing Street came under fire for blowing money while failing to fix the service. No 10 refused to say how much was spent on ads involving dozens of “influencers” and bloggers.
