Boris Johnson has said a raft of new measures for England, which include a 10pm curfew for pubs, bars and restaurants, could remain in place for six months.
The prime minister announced a string of new restrictions in the House of Commons, including a requirement for pub and shop workers and taxi passengers to wear face coverings, a limit of 15 people allowed at wedding ceremonies and receptions, and a ban on indoor sports involving more than six people, such as five-a-side football.
He said the government would be forced to take “more drastic action” if people refuse to follow the rules.
