Mark Drakeford: Pubs to stop selling alcohol in Wales

Pubs, bars, restaurants and cafes across Wales will not be able to serve alcohol and must close at 6pm in new restrictions which come into force from 6pm on Friday, First Minister Mark Drakeford has announced. Mr Drakeford told a Welsh Government press conference that coronavirus was “accelerating across Wales” and the gains achieved during the country’s 17-day firebreak lockdown were being eroded.
