Promenade in Southport

Lockdown rules in Southport and across the UK could start being eased on Monday. 

Prime Minister Boris Johnson today revealed that the current restrictions, which were placed at the start of the coronavirus outbreak in March, may start changing. 

He returned to the House of Commons for Prime Minister’s Questions for the first time since his ordeal with Covid-19. 

He admitted that the UK’s coronavirus death toll is ‘appalling’ with nearly 30,000 deaths of patients with Covid-19 across the UK including more than 100 fatalities at Southport Hospital and Ormskirk Hospital, where they have dealt with more than 500 cases.

As Boris Johnson faced the new Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer for the first time at PMQs, Sir Keir accused the Prime Minister of botching the UK’s response to the outbreak after the UK overtook Italy with our death toll worse than any other country in Europe and second only in the US in the World.

Sir Keir asked Mr Johnson: “How on earth did it come to this?”

Mr Johnson tried to deflect the criticism as he insisted now is not the time for international comparisons due to differences in the way countries compile their statistics. 

Doctors today called for a public inquiry into the UK government’s handling of the crisis to determine why Britain has been worst hit in Europe. 

Despite the grim death toll Mr Johnson announced he is planning to begin lifting lockdown at the start of next week – if the latest scientific data shows the spread of the disease is sufficiently under control.

The Prime Minister is expected to renew social distancing measures on Thursday before then using an address to the nation on Sunday night to set out his lockdown exit strategy. 

Mr Johnson said the Sunday address would prepare people for potential changes on Monday.
