Boris Johnson has said the current COVID19 situation is 'extremely difficult', with data under constant review - and that he 'reserves the possibility of taking further action'. Read more about this story:
"Those who are unvaccinated, whether out of apathy, for whatever reason, please think of this as a great thing to do for you and your family."
Depending on your persuasion, the PM is either standing up to the scientists and demanding more data, or hesitating because of the anti-lockdown elements of his cabinet and parliamentary party. Commons authorities believe MPs may be recalled next Wednesday for a possible vote on further restrictions. The government has not confirmed this.
Tory MP Dehenna Davison said"we really need some certainty" as she said pubs and restaurants have contacted her over the past two days asking if they should place food and drinks orders, while constituents have asked if they need to postpone their wedding"for the fifth time" or if they can see their mum at Christmas.
Downing Street denied it was an emergency meeting after the government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies warned daily hospital admissions could reach 3,000 without further restrictions.
