Prime Minister Boris Johnson has revealed his roadmap out of lockdown restrictions, providing a series of key tests are met, such as falling coronavirus infection rates.

The Government says, that from April 12, hospitality venues can serve people outdoors only.

It says: “There will be no need for customers to order a substantial meal with alcohol, and no curfew – although customers must order, eat and drink while seated.”
