My advice to the NHS developers would be: don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
The effectiveness of a contact tracing app scales with adoption. A sketchy, battery-draining implementation with questionable privacy may not see widespread adoption.

A battery draining implementation may be the best they can do by themselves, and, from past form, the lack of privacy is a feature and not a bug. They’ve really gone out of their way to adopt a centralized solution, when a decentralized solution would be better in almost every way.
