" Heavy heart" 👍

AaronPurr · 19/12/2020 16:16

It will now be limited to just Christmas day.

JacobReesMogadishu · 19/12/2020 16:17

Oh just show us the actual affected tier 4 areas! Ffs

Viviennemary · 19/12/2020 16:17

Do we count how many times they say stay safe. Obviously we're not safe otherwise they wouldn't be panicking and introducing these draconian policies.

MarshaBradyo · 19/12/2020 16:17

31 Dec

I just want to know if it's going to be legislated for.

BonnieDundee · 19/12/2020 16:18

"Soon be rid of this virus" load of pish

GrumblyMumblyisnotJumbly · 19/12/2020 16:19

Actually credit to Johnson he's putting peoples health first when he knows it won't be a popular policy. Thank goodness.

Plussizejumpsuit · 19/12/2020 16:19

He's sorry but if he'd done something sooner in feb this shit wouldn't be happening.

chomalungma · 19/12/2020 16:19

There's going to be a lot of spare turkey this year.

BabyLlamaZen · 19/12/2020 16:19

Where is press conference?

Roominmyhouse · 19/12/2020 16:19

Fuck. Tier 4 from tomorrow.

Everyone else in other tiers can now only see other households Christmas Day.

jasjas1973 · 19/12/2020 16:20

Yes Johnson, our european neighbours did implement stronger measures... they did it last week, unlike you, they could make a decision.

But once again we have, by far, the best x, y or z in the world.

lovelemoncurd · 19/12/2020 16:20

Er Boris should have perhaps done that a bit earlier!!

Now bbc one
Dementedswan · 19/12/2020 16:20

Did he say all tier 3 areas in tier 4 now?

I agree. Shame that he's been so weak earlier in the pandemic. He really needs to put on his big boy pants, announce some serious restrictions and enforce them.
CrunchyCarrot · 19/12/2020 16:20

Er did Boris just say no mixing of households apart from on Xmas day in the entire country??

Lougle · 19/12/2020 16:21

@Dementedswan

Did he say all tier 3 areas in tier 4 now?
Yes, sadly.
loobylou10 · 19/12/2020 16:21

Yes

AaronPurr · 19/12/2020 16:21

@Dementedswan

Did he say all tier 3 areas in tier 4 now?
No. It's only certain areas in the South, South East and East, although he didn't state the exact areas.
GameSetMatch · 19/12/2020 16:21

Oh gosh, I know it should be the least of my worries but I’ve got buffet food for 16 Being delivered for Boxing Day! What am I going to do with all that fresh food now?

missymoomoomoomoomoo · 19/12/2020 16:21

I think its the right decision and in line with other countries but why not announce a lot sooner? Think of all the wasted money!

DivisionBelles · 19/12/2020 16:21

Does anyone know what time this in force from.
