Our political editor, Laura Ginsburg, has more details.

Yeah, that's when you come down three days until the locks returned, time for discussion.

But the decision isn't really in doubt.

After weeks of resistance, the prime minister moved to back a shutdown prime minister.

But this afternoon he had to explain to Parliament why the change of heart just his first time around, his reason.

Stopping the NHS from collapse.

Let me spell out the medical and moral disaster we face.

The sick would be turned away because there was no room in our hospitals.

Doctors and nurses could be forced to choose which patients to treat, who would live and who would die.

Yet only a fortnight ago, he had mocked the idea, standing in the same place at the dispatch box, that arguments from a miserable looking chancellor on many on the Tory backbenches lost out the prime minister, reluctantly accepting the case for tighter limits.

These restrictions are time limited after four weeks.

On Wednesday, the second of December, they will expire, but I cannot protect that the way ahead is easy or without painful choices for us all.

Remember, schools will stay open on other parts of the UK are following different rules.

This isn't exactly the same as the spring leader of the opposition Kier Starmer, but the charge of the government's been too slow is familiar that every state, the prime Mr has Bean too slow behind the curve at every stage is pushed away.

Challenge ignored advice and put what he hoped would happen ahead of what is happening at every stage is over promised on under delivered.

The lock down comes with all kinds of heavy costs, though Nicholas Inborn myth was made redundant first time around.

Just yesterday he started his own business, obviously going to lock down now the injured.

I mean, I could still continue to work on the financial advice sector, but he's gonna make it very hard.

But Karen, who hopes to form a bubble with her Children, is frustrated.

I think it's absolutely, totally not and wrong to do any lock down.

Polling suggests most of the public like pensioner job back the plan, however reluctantly they've got to do it.

We've gotta have a a break, Um, try and get things under control again.

But the financial pain will be acute.

Thousands and thousands of jobs have already gone, the government's racking up billions of borrowing, trying to keep the economy afloat, extending the Farlow scheme in England and support for the self employed.

But the fear among business about what's next is great.

Economic damage is unavoidable.

Gas tanks are depleted.

Batteries run down in so many businesses across the country, in retail, in hospitality, our aviation sector absolutely on its knees.

Back in parliament, the prime minister doesn't have to worry about losing the vote that will make locked down official.

But he hasn't won the argument on his backbenches.

How Maney collapse businesses on how Maney job losses he and his government believe are a price worth paying as we drift further into it on authoritarians coercive state.

The only legal mechanism the only legal mechanism left open to me is to vote against that legislation.

Can the prime minister demonstrate to me that the damage that will be caused to East Sussex by locking down on our economy on liberty on lives on lively hoods would be a lot worse?

what we to do?

Absolutely nothing.

Despite that irritation when it comes to the vote on Wednesday, MPs are likely to give a grumpy okay with Boris Johnson's huge majority and labor support unless something very unexpected happens between now and then.

England's doors are set to close at midnight on Wednesday.

Temporary, the government hopes.

Tough on everyone.

Ministers No on lock down comes with more political turmoil.

Second time round.

Laura Ginsburg, BBC News Westminster Let's take a look at the latest official government figures they show 136 deaths were reported in the latest 24 hour period as people who died within 28 days of a positive covert 19 test means on average.

In the past week, 265 deaths were announced every day, and it takes the total number of deaths so far across the UK to 46,800 on 53.

Now, a new five level system off restrictions has come into effect in Scotland.

No part of Scotland has been placed in the highest here, but the central belt, including Glasgow and Edinburgh, will be in level three off the new system, with pubs and restaurants, closing at six PM on no alcohol sold.

The Highlands and many of the island communities will be in Tier one, with more relaxed rules are Scotland editor Sarah Smith has more details.

The walk is hot For the first time in weeks, this closed door restaurant reopened today as even under Level three restrictions.

They can serve food before six, but no alcohol.

On balance, I think I'd rather be open and closed.

We make most of the revenue in the evenings and a significant proportion of it from drink sales.

So to be open to a six PM with no drink sales as they were gonna be a struggle, they probably won't turn a profit.

But want to try to save jobs, unsure exactly what support Scottish businesses will get from the government in future as the furlough schemes now being extended through November across the whole of the UK The big question here is what happens if Scotland goes into a tighter locked down at a later date?

Will the chancellor pay for Scottish workers to be followed then?

Nicolas Sturgeon says funds must be available at the time when they're needed.

That can't be right that the only time the additional financial support is made available is when the south of England needs to go into, ah, lock down.

That just doesn't fear.

Then, Taking many by surprise, the Scottish Tory leader later secured a promise from the prime minister that furlough funds will be available if Scotland needs them.

If, uh, if other parts of the UK decide to go into, uh into measures which require the fellas can, then of course it's available to them that that has to be right on day.

That applies not just now, but of course, in the future.

A swell In Paisley volunteers are trying to spread a little happiness.

Somebody up face.

It's bean over six weeks, since people could visit each other's homes in Scotland.

Instead, house plants are being delivered to the elderly who fear another lock down with it.

Different rules for different countries, but the leaders of all four UK nations say they will work together to try and find a joint approach to Christmas.

Sarah Smith BBC News Blasco, the Northwest Ambulance Service in England, has declared a major incident because of the high level of calls this received especially in the Greater Manchester area.

It's warned that people might need to make their own weight hospital if their condition isn't life threatening or to dial 111 for medical advice.

The service added.

There was nothing currently to indicate that the surge was due to coronavirus now in Wales.

The two week firebreak locked down will be lifted next Monday to households will be allowed to form a bubble and to mix together.

But travel across the border to England will not be allowed without a reasonable excuse because of the English lock down coming into force.

Now Our Whales correspondent Howard Griffith is in Cardiff with the latest on what's being expected there.

How?

Well, yes, who?

Well, the watch government says they see no reason to change their plans just because Downing Street have decided on an English locked down.

So a week today, next Monday, shops here can reopen gyms and hairdressers to pubs, bars and restaurants can welcome back customers, although we don't have the details yet on what restrictions maybe in place for them.

What we do know is that as Wales comes out of its firebreak, we won't go back into localized lockdowns, national measures only.

From now on, we're told that includes people in Wales being able to travel anywhere they want within Wales.

But they're not allowed to leave the country for foreign holidays or to go over the border in England without a reasonable excuse, such as traveling for work.

Likewise, people in England won't be allowed to come into Wales during the English locked down, so no popping over the border for a quick point.

Which countries got the approach right?

Will this firebreak have brought success?

We don't know that for a couple of weeks on No one yet is ruling out another fire break in the new year.

How?

Well, many, thanks again hold Griffith there with the latest on the picture in Wales.
