PM Boris Johnson reinforces England ‘stay at home’ message

PM Boris Johnson has reinforced the England ‘stay at home’ message, stressing a four-week national lockdown will have a “real impact” on curbing the spread of coronavirus.

During a press conference, Johnson said he appreciated the new lockdown restrictions, which came into force today, Thursday, November 5, are “tough” and that people are “fed up”, but said it was crucial to remain indoors.

He insisted if everyone follows the ‘stay at home’ message, the country can “get through this together”.

As part of the new measures, pubs, restaurants and non-essential shops have been forced to close.

Earlier today, Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced the furlough scheme to protect jobs will be extended until the end of March, 2021.
