John Redwood writes: "Berkshire MPs met earlier this week to discuss the possible move of Berkshire into the highest Tier of CV 19 controls.

"Several of us agreed on a joint approach to the Secretary of State urging him to look at the data in smaller areas than the whole County and to keep in Tier 2 those parts and places where the numbers of cases could justify that.

"We were also swayed by figures saying the NHS was coping well with spare capacity still available.

"These representations did not succeed, so the government has decided to place the whole of Berkshire in Tier3, where Slough has been since the system was first introduced.

"I will continue to urge the government to improve the scope and generosity of its assistance to small business, as many of them will suffer again from the tougher lock down."
