Boris Johnson hosts a Cobra meeting of senior health chiefs and top ministers on Monday morning before announcing England’s three-tier system to the Commons. The system will be called Local Covid Alert Levels with England placed into “medium”, “high” and “very high” alert levels. There is no detail yet on which area of England will be placed in which tier. The Prime Minister will later address the nation live from Downing Street, flanked by Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Chief Medical Officer Professor Chris Whitty. Millions of people could be banned from travelling outside their areas or mixing indoors with other households.
