It seems like the majority of big cities/towns will be under Tier 3. Hopefully Merseyside will be tier 2, Joe Anderson seems to think it will be.

Saying that, there aren't many differences between tier 2 and tier 3 anyway.

Na they've tightened it up now. Under Tier 3 pubs, clubs and restaurants will still have to stay closed. Tier 2 is basically what Tier 3 was prior to this second lockdown.

Most of the countryside will as well because they get lumped in with the bigger areas.....

It looks like everyone will be in tier 2 or 3, maybe @roydo will get in tier 1

anyway by way of lightening the mood...

Indeed. I live in rural Northumberland, the second largest county with the lowest population density. We get lumped in with Newcastle/Sunderland.

It's tier 2 for LCR - pubs closed; restaurants, and back, sack and crack parlours open.

Been confirmed Dave? If so it’s positive news that we’ve been dropped down, would rather they keep restaurants at takeaway only though just to be on safe side

Liverpool and London in Tier 2 - confirmed.

Pretty much every other 'major' city, including Manchester, is in Tier 3.

[Toffe3m4n]

London is Tier 2.

That's what I said royd lol

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

London is Tier 2.

What a surprise...

 

[ToffeeTim]

Tier 1 a bit of a farce

Cornwall
Isle of Wight

That's it???

Good news for Liverpool though

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Indeed.

I think the argument for London was that it shouldn't be treated as one big city but as a series of boroughs where some have been better than others in terms of the R rate.

It's clear though that London was handed Tier 2 because the government are desperate for it to start becoming active again. Apparently the West End alone makes up about 4% of GDP.
