PM Johnson To Address Nation At 2000GMT As Lockdown Speculation Intensifies

UK

UK PM Boris Johnson is to address the nation at 2000GMT (2100CET, 1500ET) this evening, with the expectation that he will announced a further tightening of COVID-19 restrictions, and potentially a full lockdown similar to that imposed in March 2020.

  • No. 10 spokesman said 'The spread of the new variant of COVID-19 has led to rapidly escalating case numbers across the country. The PM is clear that further steps must now be taken to arrest this rise and to protect the NHS and save lives. He will set those out this evening.'
  • Unclear whether another lockdown will result in additional economic support measures from the Treasury.
