Lifting of Covid measures reportedly could be put back to 5 July, as adviser says reopening this month ‘foolish’

The Telegraph and the Financial Times reported on Saturday that civil servants were drawing up contingency plans to delay the easing lockdown restrictions by two weeks, possibly to 5 July.
