To get more mothers on the ballot. On these countries around the world live to coronavirus lockdowns there are warnings of a possible 2nd wave of infections in the next hour british Prime Minister Abbas Johnson is due to outline plans over how the lock down there is going to be eased the government has changed its slogan from stay home to stay alert south korea has had to introduce some restrictions all bars and clubs in seoul are closed after a spike in cases linked to some of them russias at risk of becoming the new european epicenter on sunday it reported more than 11000 new cases the highest one day figure yet meanwhile in the u. S. The top Infectious Disease expert Dr Anthony Fauci is in self isolation after coming into contact with someone who has covered 19 well were joined now by paul brown in london whos got more of what the Prime Minister might say so paul were waiting for Paul Boris Johnson to speak probably in a the next hour or so the message has changed but is anything else going to change. Well hes due to speak in one hour from now highly anticipated address to the nation on television its prerecorded will be played out at 7 pm local 800. 00 g. M. T. The reality though is it seems that there wont be a huge amounts of relaxation that was predicted by sources close to downing street saying that you dont expect opening of the floodgates a sudden relaxation people being allowed to do pretty much whatever they want were not at that stage yet in fact the Prime Minister has been accused of giving mixed messages on this there were briefings that took place last week in the National Newspapers here in the u. K. Went with headlines such as for example stay at home scrapped picnics trips outings back on the people who are expecting that sunbathing all the rest of it would be allowed from this week it appears thats not going to be the case not yet anyway. The Prime Minister at pains to say that while there is the need to have a new approach and i spoke about the change in slogan hes gone away from stay at home protect the n. H. S. Is a slogan the new slogan being stay alert. The emphasis is now on the idea that people should be able to go back to i think one of the things we should be watching out for from this address in time is the idea that the Prime Minister wants to get britain back to work if thats all possible and i think watch out for a phrase something on the lines of if you cant work from home if you have to go into work then you should. Certainly what that you know hes at pains to say that the economy really does have to get going again one of the issues that hes also facing is the fact that scotland Northern Ireland and wales all part of the United Kingdom but devolved governments are following their own routines when it comes to how they deal with coal. 1900 putting forward a national covert 19 response is actually very difficult doesnt. It is youre exactly right the Prime Minister of course is the u. K. s Prime Minister but on this matter. Stay at home regulations coded restrictions he really only has jurisdiction of england the other administrations the Welsh Assembly the Scottish Parliament they set their own rules as far as stay at home rules weve heard nicholas judge and for example the scottish 1st minister already saying that while she will go along with relaxation on for example the amount of exercise people can take the Welsh Assembly leader already said back on friday that they want to restrict she will be lifted and people can take as much exercise as they want so long as they abide by social distancing scotland has now agreed that they will go along with that but theyre not dropping the slogan of stay at home because nicolas. Welsh is well im not an island hastens to add all believe that stay at home remains the best slogan the best message to send out to the public and theyre not exactly happy that here in london the Prime Minister Boris Johnson has chosen to divert from that slogan paula no were going to be checking in with you. And speaks but for now paul brennan in london thank you very much.
