England’s new lockdown will continue until March and some restrictions will stay in place even longer, Michael Gove says.
Just hours after Boris Johnson promised a mid-February review point, his key ally warned the public to expect the curbs to remain for longer.
“Nobody can predict with accuracy exactly what we will be able to relax and when,” Mr Gove said.
And he added: “I think it’s right to say that, as we enter March, we should be able to lift some of these restrictions but not necessarily all.”
