Christmas Shopping.

Hordes of Christmas shoppers queue outside Primark at MIDNIGHT as stores opened for 24 hours - while revellers in Tier Two areas enjoyed plenty of drinks (and 'substantial meals') on first night of freedom after lockdown



Revellers took to the streets of Tier 2 towns and cities (Liverpool pictured) across the country to enjoy a drink with their household inside or with their friends outside. Londoners enjoyed a night of largely al fresco drinking and eating with many businesses fully booked as possible toasted a tiny taste of freedom after four-weeks in lockdown. Queues stretched around the block outside some pubs in Soho and east London. Many appeared to already have spent the day storming shops to grab pre-Christmas bargains in the West End with hundreds of thousands of people expected to hit the shops again today. Outside the capital, Liverpool was particularly busy after being dropped down from Tier 3 - but neighbouring Manchester's pubs, bars and restaurants, usually teeming with people in December were quiet and either closed or only open for takeaway. Boris Johnson has imposed strict lockdown tiers on 99 per cent of England, with 55million people banned from socialising with other people indoors until next year. Only Cornwall, the Isle of Wight and the Isles of Scilly have been placed in Tier 1 despite infections falling in almost every corner of the country.
