The United
Kingdom is at a “critical moment” in the battle against Coronavirus, according
to Boris Johnson. He has warned that he
won't hesitate to put further measures in place if necessary.
The
government's chief scientific adviser has warned that hospital admissions and
intensive care cases are “heading the wrong way” as the number of reported new
infections topped 7,000 for a second day running.
The
government has renewed the exceptional powers it gained in March under the
Coronavirus Act, but only after promising MPs they would be able to vote
“wherever possible” on proposed new regulations.
The Speaker
of the Commons warned the government against treating Parliament “with
contempt”.
