| With only 11 days of 2020 to go, this most chaotic of years has delivered one more unpleasant twist for people across Britain.
Yesterday, Boris Johnson announced that restrictions would be tightened over the festive period in a bid to combat a new, mutated form of coronavirus.
In this confusing and ever changing world, now is the time to turn to The Telegraph. Join us today for just 3 for your first four months and face the complex days and weeks to come with unrivalled clarity and confidence.
You’ll find expert insight on everything we know so far as Christmas is cancelled for 20million people. We’ll bring you a clear guide to the new rules of Tier 4, while you can use our handy postcode checker to find out which tier your area is in.
We’ll help you plan properly for Christmas, from travelling safely and meeting loved ones to last-minute festive shopping. And we’ll keep you up-to-speed with all the latest must-read developments and breaking news, including the nationwide response to the Government’s announcement.
Our dedicated team will also tell you everything you need to know about the new strain of the virus, including whether it will respond to the vaccine.
As a Telegraph subscriber, you’ll enjoy forthright opinion and commentary that brings further clarity to today’s complex, unsettling issues. Patrick O’Flynn writes that ‘Cancelling celebrations a week before Christmas is a potent way to destroy a Prime Minister’s credibility.’ Leo McKinstry echoes Patrick’s sentiments, declaring that ‘This diabolical shambles is but part of a pattern of inconsistency and incompetence.’
Philip Johnston calls for an end to ‘wasting billions on testing’, declaring that ‘only a vaccine can save us now.’ Janet Daley believes that Britain’s ‘drastic’ response to Covid-19 reflects ‘the state’s new moral duty to end death.’ Our Global Health Editor Paul Nuki, however, writes that ‘Boris Johnston had no choice but to tighten restrictions’ as he analyses the latest statistics.
Fraser Nelson is more optimistic, looking to the future as he states that the Conservatives’ new ‘equality agenda’ could help to guide Britain ‘out of the Covid wreckage.’ Our commentary team, meanwhile, offers further hopeful analysis in writing that ‘A successful vaccination programme can set Britain free again.’
You’ll find first-rate coverage of the other stories and subjects that you care about, too. In Brexit news, an investigation has found that almost all fish caught in protected areas of British waters end up in the EU. Claire Newell will bring you her exclusive report on how officials are planning a Brexit excuse, after pandemic planning was put on hold.
In culture, Douglas Murray is at his forthright best in arguing that ‘The war on woke orthodoxies is crucial to the UK’s economic survival’. Michael Deacon, meanwhile, applies his incisive wit to Meghan Markle, asserting that ‘she just doesn’t speak our language.’
