George Eustice says up to 100 Tory MPs have concerns over post-lockdown tier system
Up to 100 Conservative MPs are concerned at England’s new coronavirus tiers, meaning the government may have to rely on Labour votes to get the system approved by parliament, the UK environment secretary, George Eustice, has said.
Amid increasing Tory backbench disquiet about the post-lockdown tiers, in which virtually all regions in England will be put into the higher two levels this week, Eustice also said ministers could not rule out a third national lockdown.
