"The UK loosened its lockdown restrictions on people meeting up in public yesterday as a first step on the road to a complete reopening. While this was a relatively small step it showed that the country is on the path to recovery following the complete lockdown that was ordered at the turn of the year.

The success of the vaccination programme still feels like a myth with over 30 million people having received their first jab and close to 3 million receiving their second.

The Prime Minister confirmed last evening that the country remains on track to achieve its roadmap for easing restrictions gradually with most non-essential retail outlets and hospitality venues opening on April 12th.

There will be several restrictions that will remain in place until May 19th, while the scientific community remains concerned about new variants of the virus arriving in the UK.
