METERr Burnham has called on the government to avoid blanket restrictions in certain areas of the economy when the English national shutdown ends.
Speaking at the BBC breakfast, the Mayor of Greater Manchester said: “The opinion we have put to the government is ‘please don’t just make general closures happen’, we think it is much better to look at a targeted approach.
“I would say, ‘open the gyms, open the leisure centers’, it is going to be very important for people, especially when it is more difficult to exercise outdoors.
“The 10pm curfew, I don’t think it worked earlier this year and I am absolutely sure it will not work in the run-up to Christmas. It will be increasingly difficult to implement.
“What we are saying to the government is to take into account what everyone has been through and make judgments based on how manageable the situation will be.
“We need simpler and clearer messages for the public, but also something that will not make their lives very, very difficult to handle, especially as we approach Christmas.”
