BRITAIN has hit the peak of the coronavirus outbreak but must stay under lockdown to stop a fresh surge in cases, Dominic Raab said last night.

In an appeal to the country to stick to social-distancing rules, the Government’s First Secretary said restrictions on movement must remain in place “for the time being” to avoid a second shutdown later that could devastate the economy. “We’re making progress through the peak of this virus, but we’re not out of the woods,” he said. He also acknowledged many Britons were under an “immense mental strain” in obeying the draconian rules.
