Lifting lockdown restrictions has not led to a spike in coronavirus cases, the UK's national statistician has said, but he issued a warning for autumn as the PM insisted he does not want a second national shutdown.

Deputy first minister John Sweeney warned the public of the ongoing threat of coronavirus, with the surge in positive cases coming after lockdown measures were eased on Wednesday, tweeting: "Thankfully another day of no deaths recorded due to #COVID.

Mr Johnson's comments could lead to further tensions between ministers and their scientific experts after Sir Patrick Vallance, the government's chief scientific adviser, warned there was "a risk" that national measures could be needed as winter approaches.

Announcing a further easing of England's lockdown restrictions on Friday, Mr Johnson said he hoped there could be a "significant return to normality" in time for Christmas.

Clearly over the autumn we will need to be ever vigilant."
