London is joining a growing number of European cities going into stricter lockdown, as the UK battles a second wave of COVID-19
President Emmanuel Macron announced night curfews for four weeks from Saturday in Paris and other major cities.
Manchester, in the north of England and one of Britain’s largest cities, had been tipped to be moved to “very high” alert from “high”, but Hancock said talks with local leaders were continuing so no decision had yet been made. Johnson, who scored a landslide election victory in December, says his government is fighting a war against the virus and that some sacrifices are necessary to save lives.
The “very high” alert level forbids socialising, forces pubs and bars to close and prohibits travel outside the area.
