“England will face tougher local restrictions when its second national lockdown ends on the 2nd December,” Downing Street officials have said.
Parts of the country will move into the highest level of
reformed three-tier system in which some restrictions will tightened up to
restrict the further spread of COVID-19 in Great Britain.
The news came before the announcement to MPs on Monday by
Boris Johnson, who will explain the government’s plans of how to deal with the
plague during the winter, including how families can celebrate Christmas.
The Prime Minister’s “COVID winter plan” is expected to
strengthen some existing restrictions in order to maintain progress in getting
the virus under control, according tp Downing Street.
It has also been suggested that the 10 pm curfew, currently
in place, could be amended to 11 pm to allow customers to finish their meals
and drinks in pubs and restaurants.
The plan will also set out how households could spend time together during Christmas. The plan will be singed by the Cabinet on Sunday with the MPs being given a vote on the new proposed changes to the existing tiered system before the end of the current four-week lockdown which began on the 5th of November 2020.
