UK business groups are not impressed with new Covid-19 restrictions, calling them a 'real kick in the teeth' for many businesses

A sign reading open for deliveries, outside a restaurant, ahead of the county moving into Tier 3 of coronavirus restrictions from Saturday, in Windsor, England, December 18, 2020.

"This third shutdown comes at the worst possible time, as businesses face close of year challenges as well as uncertainty and upheaval from the Brexit transition period which ends in just 12 days' time — with still no deal agreed," said Mike Hawes, chief executive of Britain's car industry body, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders.
