No, it isn't.

Simple maths suggests false positives in the PCR test the UK is using has to be way less than 1%.

The ONS study that people on here have taken part shows this.

Between 1 June and 15 July they collected 112776 samples and tested them using the standard UK procedure.
50 came back positive.
That gives a positive result rate of 0.0443%.

Now, I'm sure I don't have to explain this to a man with your research ability and microcalculation skills, but you simply can't have a false positive rate higher than the rate of positive results.
So, if we assume all of the positive results are incorrect then that gives a maximum false positive rate of.... wait for it.... 0.0443%!

In summary, stop commenting on testing, you haven't got a clue.

You just choose to listen to what suits you. A million people have died worldwide.

1% of the total amount of tests.
so if they do 150,000 tests, and There are 3,000 reported cases.... 50% of those are false positives

Now say 80% of those real positives are asymptomatic,

that only leaves 300 people with any symptoms and most of them are likely mild/moderate

Total shame people are scared shitless

I was in Trafalgar sq Saturday gone as took the family down, had no idea there was a protest going on.
The fella who was speaking when we were there was completely in it for himself. In about 10 minutes he covered everything from 9/11, Pizzagate, 5G to Bill Gates, whilst continuously shouting about reveloutions and fighting the power.
sure enough the police come in so all he did was start shouting to promote his YouTube channel.
How anybody takes these doylums seriously is beyond me

Any evidence for your figures?

I get that you want things to be inaccurate and wrong to fit your bias but at least provide some evidence.

How many Covid diagnoses are false positives?

Test, test, test said the WHO. And globally, that’s what everyone did: tests have detected more than 14 million cases of Sars-CoV-2 so far. The thinking goes: turn up, have your test, and if positive, you must have the disease. But that’s far from the truth. When virus levels in the population...

So no actual hard evidence just somebody's opinion that you happen to agree with?

No, for every 100 positive tests, 1 is a false positive.
