in the hopes of reducing case numbers, though England has yet to follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/news.sky.com\/story\/covid-19-new-restrictions-come-into-force-in-wales-scotland-and-northern-ireland-12503809\">report<\/a> by Sky News, all three nations implementing further restrictions have announced the closure of nightclubs, with Wales and Northern Ireland imposing the restriction on Boxing Day while Scotland allowed one day of reprieve, only forcing closures from the December 27th.<\/p>\n<p>All three nations will also&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-59792754\">limit<\/a> the number of people allowed to meet in certain hospitality venues, with Scotland limiting it to three households max in venues that serve alcohol, while Northern Ireland and Wales will limit meetings in hospitality settings to a maximum of six people.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Northern Ireland will allow up to 10 to meet in such a setting, so long as all in attendance are from the same household.<\/p>\n<p>Wales and Scotland will also implement restrictions on the <a href=\"https:\/\/news.sky.com\/story\/covid-19-new-restrictions-come-into-force-in-wales-scotland-and-northern-ireland-12503809\">number<\/a> of people allowed to

festivities in Edinburgh, Scotland, where New Year\u2019s Even is a major event celebrated as Hogmanay, have had to be cancelled for the second year in a row over the new measures, much to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-59746201\">dismay<\/a> of organisers.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Sadiq Khan has also <a

a gathering in Trafalgar Square over coronavirus fears.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDue to the surge in Omicron cases, we have taken the difficult decision to cancel our New Year\u2019s Eve event in Trafalgar Square,\u201d the Labour mayor posted online, saying that \u201cThe safety of Londoners must always come first.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the rest of the country tightening restrictions, England, where domestic policy is managed by Britain\u2019s central government rather than regional administrations and legislatures, has yet to announce whether it will follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>This may soon change, however, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2021\/12\/25\/uk-to-consider-imposing-new-lockdown-rules-as-early-as-next-week-report\/\">reports<\/a> indicate that ministers may meet as soon as Monday to consider new modelling for future measures, which may be implemented as soon as December 28th.<\/p>\n<p>However, one government source was keen to play down the possibility of restrictions, saying that recent papers \u2014 criticised as <a
