| Dear reader,
More of the country is being placed under Tier 2 and 3 Covid-19 restrictions, with London joining on Saturday (get the latest in our live blog). So far, the Prime Minister has resisted pressure for a “circuit-breaker” lockdown, but for how long? If he does relent, argues Allister Heath, it would lead Britain into a vicious cycle of lockdowns and terminal decline.
Local lockdowns could persist for several months, leading to a daunting and difficult winter. If your area is under one, read Alice Hall’s six-month positivity plan with tips to help you get through the cold, dark season.
The launch of the new iPhone was billed as the most important for several years, with Apple hoping to return to sky-high levels of sales growth. The reason for that optimism is that these are the first iPhones capable of using 5G. Is it misplaced? James Titcomb writes that, as of today, 5G still lacks the “killer application” to make upgrading worthwhile.
Finally, Lewis Hamilton matched Michael Schumacher’s record of Grand Prix victories last weekend. The Englishman has achieved the feat in an era of mechanical dominance similar to that of his German counterpart, which has led some to question its significance. Those critics couldn’t be more wrong, argues Oliver Brown, insisting that Hamilton truly is peerless.
