THE decision to keep the Bradford district in Tier 3 has been branded "disappointing" by Bradford Council's Conservative Group, Today it was announced the district, and the rest of West Yorkshire, would remain under the 'very high' alert level. Councillor Rebecca Poulsen, Leader of the Conservative Group said, “It is disappointing that Bradford District residents will spend Christmas and New Year under Tier 3 restrictions. "It has been a long hard year for most people and it would have been nice for residents to have had more freedom to see their loved ones and maybe go out for a meal, so it is very disheartening that this is not to be.
