Regions to go into Tier 3 accuse government of giving London preferential treatment

BORIS JOHNSON was accused of giving London special treatment today as details emerged that it would be spared the toughest Tier 3 controls when lockdown ends next week.
Nearly 99 per cent of people in England will be under Tier 2 and Tier 3 restrictions from December 2, with restrictions being reviewed every 14 days. Just 1.27 per cent of people will be under Tier 1.
More than 32 million people will enter Tier 2, said Downing Street, while around two fifths of the population — more than 23m people — will be under Tier 3, a substantial increase compared to October.
