Boris Johnson warns public to follow new Covid rules or risk stricter lockdown

mirror.co.uk:

Boris Johnson has set out sweeping new lockdown measures in a sombre TV address where he warned of "difficult months to come".

In a direct appeal to the nation, the Prime Minister said the battle with coronavirus was "far from over" and urged the public to obey a long list of new restrictions - or risk stricter lockdown measures.

Mr Johnson said the new curbs on daily life were vital to preventing the virus from spiralling further out of control - and warned if people don’t follow the rules "then we must reserve the right to go further".

New rules include 10pm closing times for pubs, restaurants and hospitality venues in England - and an immediate order for people to work from home if they can.
