Day 2 Lateral Flow tests - Im landing on 23rd
If these are day 2 tests then does this mean that I can order one on the 22nd to arrive in time before the day 2 limit? Am I correct that the passenger locator can be filled any time in the 48 hours before I arrive in the UK. So I could order the new test and then the form all in time? Any advice would be great. Thanks!

The gov website chops & changes mixing up rules between different dates rather than having clear rules. You should be able to select a date and just get the rules for that date!
