Boris Johnson says still no need to delay June 21 roadmap

Boris Johnson says no need to delay 21st June roadmap

BORIS Johnson today said he was pressing ahead with plans to end lockdown on June 21 - but that crucial data was still "ambiguous".

The PM added the Government expected a rise in cases as the UK eased restrictions and was now looking to see if it sparked more deaths. June 21's Freedom Day is the final waypoint of the Government's roadmap and marks the end of all legal restrictions after almost 15 months. One Nervtag adviser even warned Britain could be heading for a third wave and urged the PM to press the pause button for a month.
