Only the Isle of Wight, Cornwall and Skilly Islands have to move to Tier 1, with more than 32 million people in Tier 2 and more than 23 million in Tier 3.

Pubs, restaurants and cafes will be barred from serving liquor, and will not be open to customers beyond 6 p.m. Businesses can provide takeaway service after 6pm, and can sell takeaway alcohol until 10pm if they have an off-license. Bingo halls, bowling alleys, soft sports centers, casinos, skating rinks and amusement arcades should also be closed.
The rule will be in force to allow four people from four different homes to meet in-house in hotels and restaurants. The results will be reviewed on December 17.
Ministers will review data on UK corona virus cases on a weekly basis throughout the stratification period, while the law requires that the tire allocation be systematically reviewed every fortnight. The first review point is December 16, and the next day new allotments were announced – decided by a cabinet committee headed by the Prime Minister. Boris Johnson said they will take effect on Saturday, December 19th.
Rules across the UK will be relaxed to create a ‘bubble’ of up to three houses for five days at Christmas so they can socialize indoors and stay overnight to enjoy the festive season together. In Scotland, a maximum of eight people will be allowed, but not those under 12 years of age. In Northern Ireland, the window has been extended to December 22-28 to allow additional travel time between countries.
Johnson has announced a “sunset” section on restrictions built in the UK, which expire on February 3 and will require the approval of MPs if they are to be extended to March.
Peter Marx, the CEO of Deltic, the company that founded the group in 2011 by buying up the collapsed luminaire nightclub business with the support of several private investors, has been a vocal critic of the government’s policy on nightclubs, which has not been fully operational since March. He said the government’s failure to provide additional support “slowly put us to death”.
In an effort to survive, Deltic has already cut 1,000 jobs and reused parts of its clubs as liquor stores. But in October Marx said the company would burn $ 1 million a month and that the money would not be out by the end of this year.
The Night Time Industries Association (NTIA), a trading organization, has said that without the necessary financial assistance, three-quarters of night-time economic businesses are now facing permanent closure. It says the government-sponsored Furlough program and subsidies of up to $ 3,000 a month are not enough to keep large clubs afloat, and its costs are higher than those allowances.
Clubs, including Egg London and Glasgow’s Sub Club, launched a campaign to keep the crowd alive.
NTIA CEO Michael Gill said: “Deltic is a prime example of a business stolen from Peter. [Marks] By restrictions. This is not for him or the credibility of the business, it is under control and not proportionally supported to allow him to survive. ”
