Grant Shapps says stricter measures would necessitate recall, amid disquiet in wake of Tory rebellion
Any further measures to limit the spread of the Omicron variant of coronavirus would lead to a recall of the House of Commons for a vote, the cabinet minister Grant Shapps has said.
After disquiet among backbenchers over plans for vaccine certificates led to a rebellion by 99 Conservative MPs on Tuesday, Shapps told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that he believed the precautions now in pace would be enough to keep Omicron under control.
