The government offered to give the region £60 million to help people through the new measures.

But the mayor, Andy Burnham, wanted five million MAWR and refused the offer, saying it wasn't enough.

Hours later, Boris Johnson went ahead and imposed the toughest restrictions, saying Not toe act now would put the lives of Manchester's residents at risk.

But from midnight on Thursday, all pubs and bars that do not serve substantial meals will have to close.

There'll be no household mixing anywhere indoors or in private gardens.

Casinos and betting shops will shut.

The region will receive £22 million to help with test and trace, among other things.

But talks are expected to resume with the government on local leaders about how much more will be given as an economic support package for businesses.

The government's offer of £60 million is still on the table.

First tonight, our deputy political editor, Vicky Young.

For more than a week, the politicians have argued for businesses that's meant uncertainty on anxiety today.

Chris's worst fears became reality.

His pub in Wigan has to close when suddenly it was coming.

So it could be bad news for the business in the struggle.

But it's good news to finally get some information to finally know, right?

Okay, we could start planning.

Now we start making plans for the business for the staff.

We'll start figure out what we're actually gonna dio.

I've been waiting in limbo for 10 days.

Feels like a month greater.

Manchester's leaders have been demanding more money to help workers whose income will fall because of closures.

They were given until midday to accept a final offer from the government.

But there was no agreement and ministers in London said they'd impose tougher restrictions.

We made a generous and extensive offer to support Manchester's business.

I want to stress this offer was proportionate to the support we've given Merseyside on blank ship.

The mayor didn't accept this.

Unfortunately on, given the public health situation, I must now proceed with moving greater Manchester as I say to the very high alert level on Dhere.

Is the mayor finding out scraps of information during his own press conference since going to be £20 million only on they are going to try and pick off individual councils.

News that didn't go down well here.

It is brutal, to be honest, isn't it?

What?

This isn't a way.

This is no way to run the country in a national crisis.

It isn't.

This is not right.

They should not be doing this grinding people down, trying to accept the least that they could get away with.

His team calculated that £90 million was needed until the end of March.

Eventually, he said, he'd accept 65 million.

The government offered 60.

Is this a game of poker?

They playing poker with places and peoples lives through a pandemic.

Is that what this is about the people who drive those taxes who work in the pubs, many of them who may have voted for them?

They said to them they would level or what we've seen today is a deliberate act off leveling down eso What help is there for areas in the very high alert level?

Tier three.

The government offers financial support amounting to £8 per head of the local population.

So for Greater Magister that would mean £22 million.

This is just a fund contact tracing enforcement on helping the clinically vulnerable.

On top of that, Lancashire and Liverpool city region also agreed extra economic package is worth millions.

But talks on similar funding for Greater Manchester have stalled.

Are you withdrawing the extra what you called generous offer?

Is that now off the table on What do you say to the mayor of Greater Manchester, who has accused you of grinding down communities through these negotiations?

I bitterly regret any restrictions that lead to damage to businesses into people's lives.

Of course, I do the funds of their their massive on bond.

What we couldn't do, I hope people understand, was do a deal with Greater Manchester that really would have bean out of kilter with the agreements we'd already reached with with Merseyside and on with Lancashire.

Later, Downing Street clarified that the offer of 60 million waas still on the table other areas, including Teesside and South Yorkshire, are locked in their own battle with the government over money.

It's an urgent situation, but progress is slow.

Vicky Young, BBC News Westminster Well, Greater Manchester is one of the largest local authority areas in the UK It's made up of 10 separate boroughs, all of which will move to the highest alert level, affecting around 2.8 million people.

Greater Manchester will join the Liverpool city region and Lancashire in the very high or tier three alert level.

Bolton and Greater Manchester has the fastest rising number of coronavirus cases.

It was already under some of the toughest co vid restrictions on North of England.

Correspondent Danny Savage is there for us now, Danny.

Yeah, so if there's already a high profile campaign here in Bolton telling people what to do on what the restrictions are at the moment there are these signs in the town center and during the day they're allowed speakers which broadcast messages telling people where to go and how to get a test if they need one.

Now, the idea of these Tier three restrictions air to drive down the number of Crate cases ons, stop the spread of coronavirus, But will they work well?

We've been talking to people here today and they are met, some of them doubtful that they will work.

Bolton has been under some sort of coronavirus restrictions for months longer than most places, but the infection rate is still high.

Testing stations are busy.

There were 1300 confirmed cases last week.

People here think something Mawr is needed.

People have become Lhasa.

And so now what you've got is that they said No, it won't affect me.

Well, they had the fear factor.

People, stop with it.

Some people are just carrying on is normal.

The rest of us are trying our best to abide by the rules.

That's not helping anybody.

Tier three restrictions will not turn places like Bolton into ghost towns.

Many businesses will remain open.

Schools will continue to operate on advice to make fewer journeys is just that advice, not the law.

And as a result, many people we've spoken to don't believe the Tier three restrictions will have the desired effect here.

Do you think people will follow the rules this time?

I don't think people will follow the rules strictly as you did in March in April, the thought of Christmas being canceled.

If it's gonna be that you can, I think people will break break the rules to see the family.

We've done the stint of the full lock down thinking that this would wear off in Nothing's changed, and now it seems like it's getting worse.

Vicky is self employed.

She supported Andy Burnham's efforts to get the best deal, but can't see how many people will now make ends meet.

He bills aren't going to stop being paired, are they?

You know, if we could live on 80% then we would work 80% what we can, and it's going lower now.

So that's another worries in it, being ableto afford everything because nothing is gonna change.

Economist Still rolling, isn't it?

You still got some things to fair.

So yeah, it's just a worry.

Uh huh.

It's taken a long time to get to the point of restrictions being imposed.

There's a weariness, though.

You don't feel that the measures so far this year have worked at all.

Well, obviously, no way we're not getting any closer to an end result so far seems to be getting like, further and further away from an end result of the moment.

Once MAWR into tougher restrictions goes greater Manchester to the relief of some.

So follow the rules where face covering on the annoyance of others keep your 2 m distance.

Danny Savage BBC News.

BOLTON Our deputy political editor, Vicky Young is in Westminster.

So all this wrangling over money of the last 10 days a poker game is what the mayor of Greater Manchester called it.

Yeah, if you just think that the government has spent hundreds of billions of pounds during this pandemic on now, they're haggling over five million.

It doesn't feel like very much, but the government says it wouldn't be fair on other areas, and they don't want to get into this bidding war where the costs do keep escalating.

But just imagine tonight, a business in Greater Manchester.

In the last few hours, you've been told by the prime minister that you will have to close in two days time and you don't know yet the extent of the compensation that you are going to receive.

Or you can hear his politicians arguing.

And that is continuing.

Tonight, six conservative MPs from Greater Manchester have written to the mayor, Andy Burnham, accusing him of failing in his duty on putting his ego before the people off the area.

Of course, there are plenty of others who have described him as a hero for standing up for the lowest paid.

But there is one thing that both sides do agree on.

They are both urging people to follow those rules when they come in.

After all the bickering, they'll have to hope that people are still listening.

Vicky Young Thank you.

The latest government figures show there were 21,331 new coronavirus infections recorded in the latest 24 hour period.

The average number of new cases reported per day in the last week is now 18,235 877 people have been admitted to hospital on average each day of the week to last Friday, 241 deaths were reported.

That's people who died within 28 days off a positive covert 19 test that is almost 100 more than this time last week.

It means on average, in the past week, 136 deaths were announced every day.

It takes the total number of deaths so far across the UK to 43,967.

I hope that just a few pin is here now, and that is a big jump in the daily deaths recorded today.

Yes, Sophia looks pretty surprising.

241 daily reported deaths in the UK, up from 80 the previous day.

You do have this weekend effect whereby sometimes reported deaths or delayed till Tuesday, pushing that figure up.

Even so, Professor Jonathan Van Tam, England's deputy chief medical officer, said at the briefing he expected the trend to go on upwards.

He also said, though, when questioned, that he thought a national locked down in England at the moment was inappropriate because of the big variations in regions infection rates, there was a lot of focus on the North west of England.

Not surprisingly, charts were shown with hospital admissions going up the numbers in hospital with co vid, the highest in the Northwest off any region.

But hospital figures on deaths relate back to cases, which were first diagnosed a couple of weeks ago.

So what a case is doing now in the northwest?

Well, there was one interesting chart which was shown which looks at the trends.

First of all, you've got this for the north west of England, the top two lines three younger age groups, teenagers and those in their twenties going up and then falling back again.

That could because it was a lot of testing a few weeks back.

But then, at the three older age groups the sixties seventies and eighties, you see them going up quite substantially.

But then beginning toe flatten out in just the last few days.

Could that possibly be a slightly more encouraging sign for the north west of England?

Thank you.
