Boris Johnson has asked cafes, pubs and restaurants to close from Friday night – except for take-away food in order to help fight against coronavirus.

Nightclubs, theatres, cinemas, gyms and leisure centres have also been told to close “as soon as they reasonably can”.

89 new cases have tested positive for Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Wales, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to 280, although the true number of cases is likely to be higher.
