England's upcoming second national coronavirus lockdown should have happened weeks ago, according to Sheffield City Region Mayor Dan Jarvis.

From Thursday, England will enter a second lockdown with pubs, restaurants, gyms, non-essential shops and places of worship closing, but schools, colleges and universities can stay open.

But Mr Jarvis, Barnsley's Labour MP and city region mayor, says the country should instead have been placed into lockdown weeks ago.

He said: "The government’s own scientific advisors gave clear advice on the need for a lockdown almost six weeks ago, and warned that not acting immediately to reduce cases would have catastrophic consequences.

"If that was not enough, there was a brutally clear lesson from the first wave about the cost of delay both in lives and economic damage."

Mr Jarvis added that the new restrictions were "necessary to sage lives" and people "must make them work".

"We must not repeat the mistakes of the past eight months," he said.

In his letter, the Right Reverend Marcus Stock asks the PM to "help places of worship sustain hope in the hearts of a great many of the people of our country".

He also questions whether there's any evidence that communal worship helps spread Covid-19.

In the letter, the Bishop says: "Since the beginning of July, our churches have introduced measures which have enabled the faithful to gather safely for acts of worship.

"There is no evidence churches have in any way contributed to the recent rise in the rate of Covid-19 infections.

"I ask you to amend the proposed national restrictions guidance to enable places of worship to remain open. This truly will help to sustain the hope of many people."

The Bantams were drawn against Kent side Tonbridge Angels in the FA Cup first round, due to be played on Saturday.

However, due to coronavirus restrictions surrounding supporters not being allowed inside the ground, no Bradford City fans will be able to make the trip south to watch their team play.

A crowdfunding page has been set up to raise money for the Angels, with the money benefiting the National League South side.

Jonnie Carrington, who set up the crowdfunding page, said he hoped City supporters could raise £1,000, but more than £4,500 has now been raised.

Mr Carrington said: "The Longmead Stadium has a capacity of 3,000 people. Because of Covid, fans aren't allowed in the ground, so my idea was to donate just a small fee to make up for what would have probably been Tonbridge's biggest money payout away from the cup money.

"Let's all get behind City and show Tonbridge that without fans, football would be nothing."

The game is due to be shown live on the BBC at 12:30 on Saturday.
