So far, ten people in the UK have died with the virus, and almost 6-hundred have been diagnosed. But government experts believe between 5 and 10-thousand people here might have it. The PM's also asking all foreign school trips to be cancelled - while people over 70 shouldn't go on cruises. He says the most dangerous period is still weeks away.

The Treasury said hundreds of billions of pounds will be pledged on Wednesday to invest in infrastructure including roads, railways, broadband and housing. However, the Government has faced criticism for delaying its key National Infrastructure Strategy to tackle the climate crisis and boost transport connectivity.

Dr Jenny Harries defended the Government's decision to delay closing schools and the introduction of other stringent tactics, saying experts are assessing new cases on an hourly basis to achieve a "balanced response".

319 people in the UK have so far been diagnosed with the disease. The Prime Minister says 'preparations' are being made for the UK to move to the next phase of tackling it.

Here - the Government's expected to say workers will get protection if they take time off to look after anyone who's sick. Some court proceedings could be heard via video link.

The total number of cases in the UK's gone up to at least 115. The Prime Minister's expressed his concern but insists the outbreak is under control and being well managed:

The 27-page document sets out the UK-wide response to Covid-19 amid widespread concerns about the impact the virus will have on people's wellbeing, the economy and public services. Measures aimed at delaying the spread of the virus could include school closures, "reducing the number of large-scale gatherings" and encouraging greater home working.

Four new cases - among people from Hertfordshire, south Devon and Kent - were announced on Monday. All had travelled recently to Italy, which is experiencing the biggest outbreak in Europe. The Prime Minister warned earlier that more cases in the UK are likely as he urged people to wash their hands to the tune of Happy Birthday. Speaking after an emergency Cobra meeting where ministers discussed a "battle plan" to be published on Tuesday, Mr Johnson said the spread of Covid-19 was likely to become "more significant" for the UK in coming days.

Sir Philip Rutnam, the department's most senior civil servant, quit on Saturday after accusing Ms Patel of orchestrating a "vicious" campaign against him, of lying about her involvement in it and of creating a climate of fear among her officials. Plus do you know the news tax rules around IR35?

The UK's guidelines for the negotiations, which cover trade and other aspects of the future relationship with Brussels, sets the deadline for progress against a backdrop of deep divisions between the two sides over issues including fish, state subsidies and standards. The Government has set out its plans for the talks ahead of the first round of negotiations on Monday, making clear that it "will not negotiate any arrangements in which the UK does not have control of its own laws and political life".

The frontrunner in the race to replace Jeremy Corbyn also vowed to scrap salary thresholds for migrants coming to Britain if he becomes Labour leader. He said salary thresholds - which are set to be introduced under the Government's post-Brexit immigration system - were not the "right measure for the worth of an individual coming to this country".

But he has vowed to keep his own preferred candidate close to his chest out of fear of doing them "damage", he told a central London audience on Thursday. In his strongest intervention yet in the race to succeed Mr Corbyn, the former leader said the party would need a "head to toe renewal" to win power again.

A policy statement published on Wednesday said free movement would end, laws surrounding this would be repealed and a new Immigration Bill would be introduced for a "firm and fair" system which would "attract the high-skilled workers" to create a "high wage, high skill, high productivity economy".

The country will need to adapt to "more frequent extreme weather events" brought on by climate change, a Government minister has said. Rebecca Pow, a minister at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), said the "top priority" at the moment was responding to flooding, and keeping people safe.

The US President told one of his ambassadors that "any nation who chooses to use an untrustworthy 5G vendor will jeopardise our ability to share intelligence and information at the highest level". The Chinese telecoms firm is regarded as a high-risk vendor by the UK but is being allowed to play a limited role in the country's 5G infrastructure.

Plus Boris Johnson is coming under renewed pressure from key British allies over his controversial decision to give Chinese tech giant Huawei a role in building the UK's 5G network. A delegation of senior US officials - including Donald Trump's acting chief of staff - are set to fly to London to raise their concerns directly with Number 10, according to the Daily Telegraph.

Mr Javid, the first British Asian to hold one of the great offices of state, was the first name announced when Mr Johnson unveiled his new Cabinet after taking office in the heady days of July. The appointment was seen as a reward for a strong performance in the early stages of the Tory leadership contest to succeed Theresa May before he was eliminated.

The Labour leader challenged the prime minister to say if he would treat a white boy the same way as one of those being forcibly removed from the UK back to Jamaica. Speaking at Prime Minister's Questions in the Commons, Mr Corbyn said an intervention from the courts blocking several people from being deported proved "the government has learnt absolutely nothing from the Windrush scandal".

The Prime Minister acknowledged that "cost forecasts have exploded" and criticised the company responsible for developing the high-speed railway. "I cannot say that HS2 Ltd has distinguished itself in the handling of local communities," he told the Commons.
