UK-Manchester to enter lockdown to stop COVID-19

Pubs and bars will shut down sed in Greater Manchester for a 28-day period after consultations with the UK’s government failed without compromise and Boris Johnson forced the toughest level of coronavirus restrictions.

Other businesses to be expected to close as the city joins Merseyside and Lancashire in tier 3 of the government’s regional alert system include betting shops, casinos, bingo halls, adult gaming centres and soft play areas.

The restrictions were imposed after Mr Johnson refused mayor Andy Burnham’s request for £75m in funding to support affected businesses and residents in two phone calls today.
