Although many coronavirus restrictions have been relaxed in recent weeks, which has allowed large parts of the UK economy to reopen, many businesses, especially those in the hotel and entertainment industry, have failed to do so because they are not financially feasible. According to the plan of the month, these enterprises are ready to reopen on June 21, which is the date designated by the government to remove restrictions on social contact.

However, due to the first discovery of a more infectious delta variant in India, the recent surge in new infections has overturned the plan.

In announcing the postponement, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Monday: “It’s time to relax the accelerator, because now we are cautious. The lives of a thousand people.”

After the announcement, the union and business leaders urged the government to compensate people affected by the delay, especially those in the arts and hospitality industries.

Frances O’Grady, secretary-general of the trade union conference, said that the delay means “many workers and companies will need more help.” She stated that the government should postpone asking companies to donate to its wage support program since March 2020 starting in July.

The Confederation of British Industry urges the government to postpone tax cuts for companies and extend the suspension of commercial rents in the most affected industries. It also stated that a solution must be found for the stressful international tourism industry.

“We have to acknowledge the pain that companies feel in hotels, leisure and on-site events,” said Tony Danker, CBI Director General. “At best, their operational capabilities have declined… At worst, some are not open at all.”

Minister of the Cabinet Office, Michael Gove, a close ally of Johnson, seems to have indicated that financial assistance will no longer be provided, and that the government’s support plan is based on the assumption that the road map to lift the blockade may be delayed.

Gove told Sky News that the “worst thing for businesses” is to allow them to reopen and then have to re-impose restrictions. He hoped that the government would not have to postpone the reopening again.

He said: “This requires an unprecedented and significant change in the progression of the disease.”
