London: Boris Johnson’s government faces mounting calls to press ahead with lifting lockdown restrictions this month, after the UK recorded no new COVID-19 deaths for the first time since the pandemic began.
With the UK registering more than 127,000 coronavirus deaths since the start of the pandemic, the highest total in Europe, Tuesday’s figure is being viewed as a highly symbolic moment - even though the daily death toll is likely to creep up again due to reporting delays over last weekend’s public holiday.

Britain distributed almost 96,000 shots on Sunday and just over 105,000 on Monday, the lowest figures since the government started publishing daily numbers in January.
