Boris Johnson has faced serious backlash from Tory MPs and local politicians after plunging just under half of England's population into the toughest level of restrictions.

Almost all parts of England will face tough coronavirus curbs with a ban on households mixing indoors and restrictions on hospitality after December 2.

Only the Isle of Wight, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly have been placed in the lowest Tier 1 set of restrictions, with people in all other parts of England set to face more serious limits to their freedom.

Large swathes of the Midlands, North East and North West are in the most restrictive Tier 3, but London will be in Tier 2. Liverpool, which had been in Tier 3 before the lockdown, will move to Tier 2 in recognition
