A total of 2,323 cases of the Indian coronavirus variant have been reported in the UK, the health secretary has said.

Mr Hancock told Sky News at the weekendthat the current COVID vaccines will protect against the Indian variant, but it could"spread like wildfire" among those who have not had a jab.

Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng told Sky News earlier it is still"very likely" that step four will proceed as scheduled. The PM's spokesman has said the government is not yet in a position to make a definitive decision on whether the easing of restrictions will happen on 21 June. And Downing Street said announcements on the future of social distancing, guidance on weddings and plans for domestic coronavirus"passports" could be delayed by the Indian variant.

So, now calling the original Chinese variant of the coronavirus as Indian variant is no racism at all

And it’s your fault for delaying the red list

Lockdown coming soon!

Communist UK and it's vaccine passports and NWO nonsense. Typical, and the mainstream media pushes it, by increasing fear mongering. Democracy is a myth, people in power giving other people a choice is a myth.

Ed Conway = Matt Hancock lied about the data out of India when Bangladesh & Pakistan were put on red list. Higher cases from India. Johnson looking for some deal with India? covidmismanagement under the Tories. Again.

Pls just shut up just shut it fffs!

Looks like they are sticking to their script to scaremonger & control our freedom 🤔

So in how many days planning to have next sprint of lockdown, Mr Minister of Pessimism office.
