Contrary to common belief , not every break-up happens on bad terms .
Sometimes a couple ends things as friends , no hard feelings involved .
Whether it 's because you 've grown apart or are at different stages of your life , the decision to terminate the relationship was mutually agreed by the pair .
Well apparently not , as Australian radio producer Jana Hocking says there 's no such thing as an `` amicable '' break-up .
The 37-year-old based her controversial opinion on her own experiences , telling news.com.au it 's a common lie we all tell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jana said : `` There 's nothing more fabulously scandalous than a relationship break-up .
`` Do n't pretend when you hear on the grapevine that someone you know had broken up with their partner , you do n't want to know all the details .
`` It 's shameless but true .
Why did they break-up ?
Was there cheating involved ?
Who broke up with who ?
`` So , as you can imagine , there 's nothing more annoying than finding out that it was 'amicable ' .
To which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a friend tells me their relationship break-up was amicable .
I call BS . ''
Although according to Jana this does n't mean you ca n't have a healthy relationship with an ex partner .
She continued : `` Sure , you can break-up and still be friendly towards each other .
It does n't always have to be as dramatic as it looks on Grey 's Anatomy , but honestly , how do two people decide at the exact same time that they no longer want to be together ?
`` Whenever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ assume a ) they got dumped and are too horrified to tell you about it , or b ) they were the dumpee and are trying to soften the blow by saying it was amicable . ''
Jana says the reason that people often say the end of relationship is amicable is because : `` They ’ re not 100 per cent committed to the break-up . ''
She added : `` Now do n't get me wrong , there are those relationships where you have just well and truly worn each other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tells you the relationship ended amicably , just prod around a bit .
I promise you – the truth will come out eventually .
Why ?
Because there is no such thing as an amicable break-up . ''

thedailymirror--2020-09-09--Boris Johnson repeatedly blames the public for Covid-19 testing chaos

Boris Johnson repeatedly blamed the public for overloading the Covid-19 testing system by ordering tests when they do n't have symptoms .
Keir Starmer demanded the Prime Minister fix the `` frankly ridiculous '' Covid-19 testing chaos , as he revealed patients are still being told to travel miles to get tested .
In a bruising PMQs exchange , the Labour leader told Mr Johnson : `` I just want it fixed .
I do n't need to have an argument . ''
Mr Starmer told the story of a mother who lives in London trying to secure a Covid-19 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said the woman was told the nearest place for a test was Telford or Inverness , before being offered Swansea as an option .
Sir Keir added : `` This is frankly ridiculous .
Who does the Prime Minister think is responsible for this ? ''
Mr Johnson admitted he was responsible for the situation , but followed Health Secretary Matt Hancock in indicating the situation had been caused by public demand for tests from people who did not have symptoms .
He said the Test and Trace system was doing a `` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - with capacity of 500,000 expected to be available by the end of October .
And he accused Mr Starmer of `` attacking '' the system .
Mr Starmer said Labour in principle supports the limit on social gatherings and denied he was attacking NHS Test and Trace , telling the Commons : `` The Prime Minister needs to know how anxious hundreds of families are . ''
He said the Government line on testing `` seems to be changing all the time '' , asking : `` Who is right - the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this is a laboratory problem , or the Health Secretary that it 's the public 's fault ? ''
Mr Johnson replied : `` I of course sympathise with all those who are facing difficulties getting a test as fast as they want but demand is at an unprecedented high , particularly because of demand for asymptomatic patients .
`` This country has done more tests - 17.6 million - than any other country in Europe . ''
Mr Johnson said it will increase to `` 500,000 tests a day by the end @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people were being left feeling anxious because they or their loved ones have Covid symptoms but are unable to get a test .
He added : `` Hundreds of families have tried to get a test in the last week and they ca n't get one .
`` I do acknowledge the number of tests overall but this is basic stuff .
People who have got Covid symptoms are very anxious about themselves , their children , their families and what to do .
`` It means they ca n't go to work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to school , it matters .
And if they ca n't get tests the Prime Minister needs to take responsibility . ''
Later , responding to a question from Jarrow Labour MP Kate Osborne , Mr Johnson again appeared to blame the public .
She said Jarrow , one of the government 's areas of concern , her constituents were struggling to get a test .
Mr Johnson replied : `` I have every sympathy for those who want to get tests .
The demand is very , very acute , partly because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't have symptoms who want a test .
`` Our view is that priority should be for people who do have symptoms and the groups that I mentioned earlier .
`` We will do everything we can to address the issues in Jarrow , and across the country . ''
Earlier , Mr Hancock attempted to shift the blame after people with coughs and fevers were told to travel more than 300 miles to get tested for Covid-19 .
Yesterday an NHS testing director apologised and admitted that while test sites had capacity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ '' in labs processing the results .
Yet Mr Hancock - who has admitted it will take `` weeks '' to solve the problem - chose to point the finger at rising demand from asymptomatic people who , according to current rules , should n't be tested at all .
The Health Secretary insisted the test and trace system was `` excellent '' and claimed the problems were due to soaring demand from people not eligible for a test .
In most cases people should only get a coronavirus test if they have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - a cough , fever or loss of taste or smell .
Mr Hancock told Sky News : `` In the last couple of weeks we 've seen an increase in demand , including an increase in demand from people who are not eligible for tests , people who do n't have symptoms .
`` We 've seen an increase of about 25 % of people who are coming forward that do n't have symptoms and are n't eligible . ''
Mr Hancock stressed that anyone with coronavirus symptoms must still get a @ @

The Prime Minister said there was "acute" demand for testing - partly caused by people without symptoms ordering tests
