Hitchin: PM Boris Johnson has announced that Plan B measures including face masks and Covid passes are to end.

Speaking at the House of Commons moments after a tempestuous Prime Minster's Questions on Wednesday lunchtime, Johnson revealed that Plan B measures are due to expire on Wednesday, January 26.

What does the end of Plan B mean?

- The end of mandatory Covid passes in England, with businesses allowed to use them if they choose

- Mandatory face masks will end, including in classrooms for secondary students and on public transport meaning people will not be criminalised for not wearing a face mask

- The end to work from home guidance

- Restrictions on care homes will be eased, with detail to be released

- However, there will still be a legal requirement to self-isolate if you test positive for Covid
