Coronavirus: Pandemic 'will be bumpy through to Christmas and maybe beyond', Boris Johnson warns

The coronavirus pandemic 'will be bumpy through to Christmas' and potentially beyond that, Boris Johnson has warned, as he said it is 'too early to say' whether local lockdowns are working. The prime minister acknowledged there will be some members of the public who are 'furious at me' and 'furious at the government' amid the continuing COVID-19 restrictions. 'I've got to tell you in all candour it's going to continue to be bumpy through to Christmas, it may even be bumpy beyond,' he said in an interview with the BBC's Andrew Marr Show.
