Prime Minister Boris Johnson Faces Tory Backlash as Britain Heads to ‘Plan B’ with Mixed MessagesBoris Johnson is struggling to contain a Tory revolt today amid fury at 'non-sensical' new Covid restrictions and his handling of the No.10 Christmas party debacle.
The PM triggered 'Plan B' measures Wednesday, with millions of office staff urged to work from home from next week. Masks will be required in theaters and cinemas, with Covid passports introduced for nightclubs and large venues.
However, Johnson stressed that office Christmas parties should go ahead, sparking derision from critics while desperate businesses complain that differing restrictions 'don’t make any sense.' (Daily Telegraph)
Dozens of Conservative MPs are now threatening to rebel against the measures when a Commons vote is held next week - although support from the opposition party means they should still pass.
