The 56-year-old, known for his unruly blond hair, has also booked in at the hairdresser after they too reopen in England at the weekend alongside libraries, museums, cinemas, restaurants and hotels. “But the success of these businesses, the livelihoods of those who rely on them, and ultimately the economic health of the whole country is dependent on every single one of us acting responsibly,” he said. The spike in cases in the English city of Leicester, which led to local schools and shops this week being shut again and the July 4 reopenings delayed, was proof that “the virus is still with us”.
“So as we take this next step, our biggest step yet, on the road to recovery, I urge the British public to do so safely.”, Johnson revealed he planned his own trip to the pub, and “I will be having a haircut as soon as I can. It’s booked”.
