Britain eases curbs, forms Xmas bubble

London, November 25

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has confirmed a time-limited one-off dispensation from Covid lockdown rules agreed by all parts of the UK for families to get together to form a Christmas bubble between December 23 and 27.

In a video message on Tuesday evening from Downing Street, where he continues to self-isolate after being in contact with a positive politician, Johnson said a family can get together with two other households to form such a bubble in order to spend the festive period together.— Agencies
