Boris Johnson announced a third coronavirus lockdown, telling the country to stay at home until at least mid-February.

Police will enforce the rules with £200 fines for anyone flouting restrictions.

However, there are exceptions to the rules allowing people to go out for 'essential' reasons or exercise once a day.

For example, Leeds residents can go to the shop to buy food or collect necessary supplies, attend medical appointments or get a coronavirus test.
