Would be nice for Government announcements to come from Government and not leaks.

If only they enforced the no mask no entry, but they won't as usual the minority gets its way.

Re: Coronavirus

New Tier 4 restrictions in London, the South East and East of England from tomorrow.


https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-55376873


Quote:
London, the South East and East of England will enter a new tier four level of restrictions from tomorrow morning, the prime minister says.

These will be broadly equivalent to national restrictions which were introduced in England in November, Boris Johnson says.

Residents in those areas must stay at home, with limited exemptions. Non-essential retails and indoors gyms must close.

People should work from home when they can, and should not enter or leave tier four areas. Communal worship may continue.

The restrictions will last for two weeks and will be reviewed on 30 December.
Quote:
"We cannot continue with Christmas as planned," Boris Johnson says.

People should not to travel into a tier four area, though support bubbles remain unaffected as do the exemptions for separated parents and their children.

Across the rest of the country, rules allowing up to three households to meet will now be limited to Christmas Day only.

Re: Coronavirus

BREAKING: Prime Minister Boris Johnson announces that London, South East and East, areas moved into new Tier 4 with “stay at home” message by law. Christmas bubbles only allowed for Tiers 1 - 3 on Xmas Day only. Previous 5 day relaxation of restrictions has now been revoked for ALL Tiers.

Re: Coronavirus

Greater Manchester has been in a Tier 3 style lockdown for a considerable time, now for the first time, London is now in a higher Tier than Manchester.

Sorry bud but it has changed, you can only go to your sisters on Christmas day, if you stick to your plans, then you would be breaking the law. There is no longer a 5 day relaxation for any Tier.

Umm unless that’s your support bubble then you’re not meant to, Christmas bubble is now only Christmas Day for tiers 1-3 and not applicable to tier 4

Edit: beaten to it by Mick ��
