Brentford will face Tier 2 coronavirus restrictions from Saturday.

It means people will be banned from meeting those from other households indoors, whether that's in their home or in a pub.

Londoners have also been advised to avoid public transport and reduce the number of journeys they make where possible.

Health minister Helen Whately told London MPs, including Brentford's Ruth Cadbury, of the decision during a call this morning.

On Tuesday, London's mayor Sadiq Khan said that further restrictions were "inevitable" as hospital admissions and infection rates were "going in the wrong direction".

He also wrote to the prime minister, telling him: "None of us want more restrictions in London but given the increase in infection rates and the lack of testing we have little choice."

The London-wide average infection rate was 78 new cases per 100,000 people in the week to October 9.
