Burnham didn't know anything about the £20m figure until it was revealed to him as he was about to start a press conference, so he wasn't playing games. if the serco test and trace is being offered nationally anyway, it seems inconceivable that it would need to be announced with a monetary figure attached, so one side is definitely playing games. Looks like Boris is about to start another climb down and needs something to pin it on.
