Following!

I don't know, but he's going to tell you your Tier will depend largely on your hospital capacity rather than your infection level.

Well he won't say that, but that's how it is.

Think 7pm.

Rudolphian · 12/10/2020 16:30

I just dont understand what they mean by not being able to leave your area.
What decides what my area is and how big is it?

user1471441839 · 12/10/2020 16:31

7pm according to BBC news

gingajewel · 12/10/2020 16:33

Thank you all!!

@IronLawOfGeometricProgression, totally agree with you, one hundred per cent!

7pm. Was going to be 6.

(I hope someone has brushed his jacket down as the hair on his shoulder earlier on was a bit distracting. It's falling out !)

HoneyBee03 · 12/10/2020 16:45

Hasn't everything he's going to say already been released in the news this afternoon?

Seriouslymole · 12/10/2020 16:47

Isn't he on now, in parliament - hashing it out before saying it "officially" tonight? I'm following it, he's not saying a lot, just that the three tier system will be easier to follow....

Seriouslymole · 12/10/2020 16:48

Here's it in a nutshell from the BBC

The prime minister has said he does not believe another national lockdown would be the "right course" in combating the pandemic

Instead a new, three-tiered lockdown system will be rolled out, categorised under medium, high and very high

Most areas in England will be put on a medium alert level - meaning current restrictions continue, including the 10pm hospitality curfew

But areas which already have local restrictions on household mixing will be automatically put on high alert. Under this category, social mixing will be prohibited indoors and in private gardens, and many businesses will be closed including pubs, gyms and casinos. The Liverpool City Region will become the first area to enter the very high alert level

The prime minster has also said that all retail outlets, schools and universities will remain open.

7pm,

but no indication they're going to tell us the only thing we all really need to know which is which tier our own area is in.

NandosPeriometer · 12/10/2020 16:52

Did he announce what the magic numbers are for moving tiers?

PineappleUpsideDownCake · 12/10/2020 16:54

The hair was really irritating! Surely an aide could have sorted it?

It doesnt look like its as harsh as suspected. Not everywhere with over 100 per 100000 as suggested.

Splodgetastic · 12/10/2020 16:55

7, was going to be 6. Things still unclear, e.g., what tier each area is and on transport. Expect guidance and law won't be published until Wednesday.

IronLawOfGeometricProgression · 12/10/2020 19:40

I think there might soon come a time when most of the country is on "Local Lockdown" Confused

Sky news website tells you which tier your area is in.
