At the point of writing the precise relaxations are not yet known but we expect to hear from the Prime Minister shortly following the announcement from the Health Secretary in Parliament. By the time you read this probably the announcements will have been made.

In the meanwhile new cases continue to rise and the health secretary continues to believe that 100000 a day is still possible, or is that in fact likely?

We will keep this short today so that you can concentrate on the PM’s press conference.

Just a week and you will have to decide how you are going to handle this. So back to the restaurant? Our photo today depicts a nice posh place to go if you have been missing it!
