Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced a second national lockdown for England in an attempt to stem the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.

From Thursday, all non-essential shops and hospitality will have to close for a month, though schools, colleges, and universities will remain open, Johnson said at a press conference in Downing Street on Saturday evening.
