Covid ‘Blizzard From East' Could Disrupt Christmas

The prime minister said there was nothing in the data now to suggest the UK should move to the government’s plan B, involving compulsory masks, advice to work from home and Covid vaccine passports for crowded venues. But he warned that some areas of Europe were now seeing a “storm of infection” that could spread across the Channel to Britain.

As experts gave the go-ahead for booster jabs for over-40s and second vaccine shots for 16- and 17-year-olds, Mr Johnson urged everybody to take up the offer of inoculation as soon as possible to ward off the danger of new restrictions. The decisions of the 25 per cent of over-70s who have still not had their booster jab will “make all the difference” to the kind of festive season Britain enjoys this year, after its effective cancellation last year, he said.

Borthwick safe for now but optimism is little insurance

Perhaps Allianz is already dealing with a dash of buyer’s remorse. In the two months since the insurance giant took the Twickenham naming rights to the tune of more than £100m, England’s men have played three, lost three; the bedecking of their home in deep blue branding suddenly feels appropriately doleful decoration.
