These are tough times and as I’ve said before, we can’t protect every business and every household. The OBR today have been clear that if we had not taken the actions we have, the situation would be much worse.
In other words, our plan is the right one.
794
Today I held important discussions with my G7 counterparts around our joint response to the Covid-19 outbreak.
It's vital we work with our partners to fight this virus together and support the global economy.

I'd like to wish a #HappyVaisakhi to everyone celebrating today.
At a time when people normally come together I know it's difficult to not be visiting the Gurdwara or attending street parades. But this year we must look after one another, protect the NHS and stay at home.

At home shouldn’t mean at risk. #YouAreNotAlone
