The Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced a toughening of Covid restrictions in England to slow the spread of Omicron variant. They include wearing a mask in theatres and cinemas from Friday, and asking people to work at home from Monday if they can. This comes as an investigation into a Christmas party in Downing Street last year has begun following a video which emerged of staff joking about a party at No 10. Government spokeswoman Allegra Stratton resigned on Wednesday after the leaked video caused wide-spread public outrage. The inquiry now could be widened to include other alleged gatherings.
