Vincent McAviney: Boris Johnson announces UK Covid restrictions to end on 19 July
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced current Covid restrictions will end on the 19th of July.
The move is hugely political, with it having already been delayed, and half of people still wanting to keep current restrictions in place.
UK correspondent Vincent McAviney told Tim Dower this isn't the big release that many people were hoping for.
"Whilst there are legal obligations lifting for things like mask wearing, there is still the hope and expectation that people should wear them especially in confined spaces."
