A stark warning from the chancellor, but there was more cash in his Spending Review to level up the economy. Im in merseyside to find out if thats giving businesses confidence amid the gloom. The small fish thats helping scientists learn how to heal people with serious injuries without scarring. Good morning. Its a chilly start to the day. Some frost and fog but a lot of dry weather and a fair bit of sunshine. Cloud at times in the south. Detailed in ten minutes. Good morning. Its thursday, 26th november. Our top story. People in england will learn what restrictions they will face when the lockdown ends next week, as the Health Secretary makes an announcement later today. Most of the country is expected to be placed in the two toughest tiers of measures, with london going into tier 2. Our Political Correspondent helen catt reports. The shutters will come up on shops, gyms and hairdressers everywhere in england next week, as lockdown ends. But what else opens again will depend on where you live. The government will announce later this morning, which level of its new tier system its decided will apply in each area. So whats likely to happen . Only a handful of areas are expected to go into tier 1, where groups of up to six people will be able to meet again, indoors or outdoors. Pubs and restaurants can open with last orders at 10 00pm and closing at 11 00 pm. Most of england is likely to be in tier 2. Groups of up to six people will still be able to meet outdoors, but not indoors, unless in a support bubble. Pubs can only reopen if theyre operating as restaurants, and alcohol can only be served with a substantial meal. But some areas will be in the highest level of restrictions. Pubs and restaurants will be forced to provide takeaway only, and therell be no mixing of households, except up to six people in public outdoor spaces, like parks. London is expected to be put into tier 2. Some areas of Northern England have already had months of tight restrictions and fear they are headed for tier 3. I think its more likely than not that the government will put us in tier 3, given the statements that ministers have made about the majority of people being disappointed and practically nobody being in tier1. I think theyre giving a very clear steer that they are going to err on the side of caution. Other areas like lincolnshire were in the lowest tier before lockdown. Cases have soared in some parts of the county, but not in others. Theyre among several local authorities and mps whove appealed to the government to take that into account, and not to impose higher tiers across entire counties. Weve got areas on the east coast which are pretty high at the moment, although they are coming down, and weve got other areas inland which are below the national average. And it would seem very perverse to actually force businesses and families to stay and enjoy the highest restrictions, when theres actually no need in those particular areas. The government says it will look at local context as a factor. That could include if an area is a commuter zone or has lots of students, for example. Rapid Community Testing will be offered to areas which do go into tier three. In liverpool, its been credited with helping to cut transmission of the virus. The government says doing that is key to moving back down the tiers. Its promising to review the allocations by december 16th. Helen catt, bbc news, westminster. Teesside, in the north east, is expected to go into tier 3. The area still has some of the highest levels of Coronavirus Infection rates in the country. Geeta pendse is in middlesbrough. Good morning. The impact of this is going to have on businesses and the way people are living, how does this look . Absolutely. The impact could be huge. Im here in Middlesbrough Town Centre. I have spoken to the owner here this morning and she among lots of people in the hospitality sector across england, are so nervous about hospitality sector across england, are so nervous about finding out which area, the tier for the area will be. Tier. Particularly if it is the most severe tier. Local leaders are anticipating that the town will be placed into the most severe tier, tier 3, and thats because despite of the infection rate dropping, at one stage it was 500 per 100,000 people, rate dropping, at one stage it was 500 per100,000 people, it is rate dropping, at one stage it was 500 per 100,000 people, it is now 327, it is still much higher than other parts of england. As we heard in the piece, there are commonalities between the tier 2. Nonessential shops will reopen and also people can meet in groups of up to six in public outdoor spaces. But if youre in tier 3, different households still are not allowed to mix indoors. And crucially, pubs, restau ra nts, mix indoors. And crucially, pubs, restaurants, bars will not be allowed to reopen unless it is for ta keaway allowed to reopen unless it is for takeaway and delivery. As i mentioned, i spoke to the owner this morning. She said it was absolutely devastating and unsustainable. She also told me that even tier 2 would be extremely problematic for her bar, which relies on alcohol sales and that night time economy. We will be hearing from the government later. There are lots of different factors. Infection rate is one of them, but also things like the pressure on the local nhs. People braced across the country to find out which you or their local area will be in. Thank you.

Must be some remarkable scenes playing out there for the next few days, three days of official mourning. So, a picture. Here is an image for you. If you have got quite a few cats at home, maybe two, three, maybe four. Can you see that . Which camera are we on . Over that way . It is worth dwelling a little. I hope you can see. How clearly is that coming across . This is a picture from a lady who lives in oman. She has, not all of the cats are in the picture, she has 480 cats. Domestic cats. This is not a home for cats. Well, it is their home. It is not a rescue place. 480 cats. She has also got dogs, 12 dogs. You can see one down the bottom. Thats quite extraordinary, isnt it . Shes not just rescuing isnt it . Shes notjust rescuing them and. . You assume there must be a story. But it is not a rescue centre, as such. I have three cats, and the only thing i can think of, i dont know if you will be with me, the smell . Cats dont tend to smell. But 480 in a house . I feel duty bound to say if you have got more than 480 cats in your house this morning, sent us a picture we might not believe you. Im fairly confident. Its not going to happen. Ami to happen. Am i right in thinking you dont play chess . No. Would you like to learn . I would find it very challenging. You dont mind challenges, do you . I have nothing against the sport or those who play it. There are so many things people are catching up on, streaming on television etc. There is one i am really enjoying. It has really caught the imagination of quite a few people when it comes to chess. It is a limited series, the queens gambit, about a young woman who becomes brilliantly successful at chess and is challenging middle aged men in corduroyjackets, as this size. This is a documentary . Its not. It is a drama. Its based ona its not. It is a drama. Its based on a novel. The woman is called beth, a talented young woman in the ra nks beth, a talented young woman in the ra n ks of beth, a talented young woman in the ranks of the male dominated world of competitive chess. What has been happening as a result, there has been more than a 200 increase in chess set sales. Since this was released in october, john lewis has seen a 120 rise. Lots of people now asking for lessons. Younger people wanting to learn the game. What is a chess set accessory . A timer . Yes, youve got the clock thing. That is when you are really serious. You could have marking pads. You can roll up chess sets rather than in a box. Different ways. On another thought, we all know cars are getting bigger and bigger. You know that parking thing . You go into a car park and you find a space but you cant get the car door is open . Theyve done this analysis of how much bigger ca rs this analysis of how much bigger cars are. From the 19705 to 2020, the mini, for example, has gone up in size 55 . So break it down. Say youve got a big car like a range rover, and you park in a regular sized space, what you end up with, because of the width of your car, ease either side of the vehicle. I am going to illustrate this. A handy piece of yellow all. Either side of your car you end piece of yellow all. Either side of yourcaryou end up piece of yellow all. Either side of your car you end up with this amount of space for the door to open. It is 21 centimetres either side of the carfor 21 centimetres either side of the car for the 21 centimetres either side of the carfor the average space 21 centimetres either side of the car for the average space with a big car for the average space with a big car like that. You cant get out of that, can you . Car like that. You cant get out of that, can you . No. Im notan angry, road rage person, but one of the things that infuriates me is when people dont park within the lines, but when they parked just on the edge one line. It the space. Well, with that itll space it doesnt make much difference anyway. At least you have 21 centimetres. Stay calm out there, whatever the circumstances. Despite beginning his Spending Review with pretty dire economic forecasts, the chancellor did promise billions of pounds to help level up the economy when he addressed the commons yesterday. Nina is at a Printing Firm in merseyside to get their take. Good morning. There will be a lot of businesses paying very close attention to what the chancellor said yesterday. Tell us more from the place you are in. What do they do there, how are they feeling . Absolutely right. Good morning. Have a little look here. These are admissions letters for edge hill university, heart off the press. They provide businesses and the Public Sector, like universities. Ive also seen material for charities and hospitality businesses. When the wider economy is doing ok, these guys are doing ok too. This was the warning from government. Borrowing is up to nearly £400 billion. That translates to nearly seven grand for every individual in the uk. A lot of money. We know the economy is going to shrink. That will mean fewer jobs. Its predicted 2. 6 Million People will end up out of a job. The economy wont recover for quite a while. In fact, even in 2025 so, half a decade away the economy will still be 3 smaller than we expected it would be pre coronavirus. A little bit of light at the end of the tunnel about. The government said they would find £4 billion for levelling up the economy, which means investing in places outside of london and the south east, so things are fair. The money trickles down and around the north of baghdad. Lets talk to somebody for whom that would be very important. Good morning, mario. This levelling up promise, is it meaningful . It is as long as they follow it up. From our point of view as a business, we want to see more optimism. I understand the chancellors position in terms of what he is saying and he has to bea of what he is saying and he has to be a little bit cautious. From our point of view as a business, we are optimistic and what we are doing. We are looking to invest. If they can actually transpire a lot of that confidence down to businesses like us, then hopefully we can get the economy going. Yesterdays announcement important, but presumably even more important for you is where the north west, merseyside, ends up in this tier system . If business merseyside, ends up in this tier system . If business is here contract, where is yours . We have been working during lockdown with some of our clients. We have got a lot of clients who are very. They are waiting to see what is going to happen today with the tier system. We are dealing with companies and hospitality. So for them is a crucial decision today. It obviously filters down to us, because if they are not opening their doors to trade, then effectively it does filter down to us. And finally, mario, you have taken advantage of a couple of the governments initiatives, including the Apprenticeship Scheme . Yes, its something we have been talking about in recent months. This is the extra incentive, to bring on a new apprentice, to help sean, who has just disappeared. And also, to other areas of the company, to be someone who can gain a lot of skills over a good period of time. That is what lots of businesses are telling us, although the outlook is pretty ble
