Police shot and killed a suspect after a mass stabbing left six people injured - including a police officer who is in a critical condition - at Glasgow's Park Inn Hotel, which was giving temporary accommodation to asylum seekers
Glasgow stabbings: Policeman, 42, fighting for his life after knifeman shot dead in hotel
A knifeman is reported to have stabbed two people to death and critically injured a police officer before he was shot dead.
Witness reports suggest the attacker entered Glasgow's Park Hotel and started knifing people indescriminately. Police Scotland are not treating the incident as a terror attack.
The hotel is currently being used to house asylum seekers. The policeman, 42, is among six people injured and in hospital after the knife rampage.
The ages of those injured have been confirmed by Police Scotland as 17, 18, 20, 38 and 53.
Witnesses reported seeing two hotel workers with knife wounds, including one who had a wound to his abdomen and was "fighting for his life, gasping for breath" as he lay on the floor in the reception area.
One photo showed a bloodied victim as he lay on the steps of the hotel, while paramedics wearing hazmat suits were seen treating patients on the bloodstained pavement.
A witness told Mirror Online he saw five patients being loaded into ambulances.
The area was locked down as armed police officers stormed the 91-room hotel and people came running outside with their hands in the air.

A hero delivery driver, who was carrying food into the building when the attack began, said: "I went into the hotel and a guy had stabbed the receptionist and maintenance guy.
"He then ran back up to his room. I was trying to stem the blood of the maintenance guy when the armed police rushed in and went up to his room and shot the guy.
"It was absolute carnage, I was on the floor trying to hold the guy, the maintenance guy – a big puncture wound.
"It was absolutely horrific."
It is believed the officer rushed to hospital was one of the first to respond to an emergency call at the hotel. Positive Action In Housing said the hotel was housing refugees for the Mears group.
Officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
Witnesses described a distressing and chaotic scene. A man named John said he saw two people stabbed in the hotel.

He said he came down from the third floor of the hotel to see the reception covered in blood.
He added: "One receptionist had been stabbed behind the receptionist desk.

“There were two police officers so I told them what happened.
“After I came out from the hotel I heard people say the attacker’s still in the hotel but I didn’t come across him.
“When I was out of the hotel for ten minutes one of the police officers came out with blood on his face, he had been stabbed.
“My mum’s still in our room - I’ve told her not to come out.”
The Park Inn Glasgow, which is owned by the Radisson chain, has been housing asylum seekers during the coronavirus pandemic since April - and its website states that it is temporarily closed until August 2.
A witness named Sean told LBC he took the stairs to the ground floor "and in the reception it was full of blood everywhere on the floor, a receptionist got stabbed behind the reception.
"And then when I went out of the entrance, I saw another receptionist got stabbed. The sad part is I know them.

He added: "After that we saw commotion, ambulances further up and we saw armed police all running into the hotel next to the Society Room.
"We were still standing outside, after that the police all came down, the riot police and triage team told us to go back in and lock the door."
A Number 10 spokesperson said: “The PM has this afternoon spoken with First Minister Nicola Sturgeon about the incident in Glasgow.
“He has also held a meeting with the Home Secretary and senior police officers, in which he was updated.
“The Prime Minister thanked the Chief Constable of Police Scotland, Iain Livingstone, for the exceptional bravery of his officers at the scene. The PM’s thoughts remain with the injured and their loved ones.”
Witness Callum O'Brien, who lives in a flat near the scene, told Mirror Online that he saw five patients being taken from the scene.
He said: "I didn’t see the attack and first I was aware was from multiple sirens outside.
"I can't see round the corner to where the attack took place but I have seen four people taken into ambulances. They were all taken on stretchers.
"One was very bloodied, the others not so much."
He added moments later while speaking to a reporter: "A fifth has just been taken into an ambulance and was surrounded by paramedic and police and being given oxygen, noticeably more so than the others so this may have been the attacker but don’t have anything else to go on other than that sorry."
A witness named Louisa told Sky News: "I was in a building on West George Street, I was higher up so I could see what was going on.

"We're inside, we're safe on a high floor, we're staying put for the time being.
"In the aftermath I saw people who were being treated, there was blood all over them.
"There were armed police telling people to come out of the hotel with their hands up... there was a large group of them.
"I saw at least three being treated at the scene before they were taken away in ambulances. There were police cars, ambulances all over the street.

A witness named Reilly told Mirror Online one of the patients appeared to be hurt "very badly, on a gurney".
He added: "I was watching a girl get arrested for taking pictures then try to throw her phone to her friend, so I could only see one person lying down, not looking conscious getting rushed inside (an ambulance)."
Ben Fitzpatrick saw the bloodbath unfolding while out with his dad to get something to eat at lunchtime.
The 17-year-old said: "I was just on my way to get something to eat and I saw a man come out of the hotel covered in blood.
"It looked like people fighting amongst themselves.

"I've seen around 60 armed officers and there were around nine ambulances earlier.
"I saw someone sitting on a stairwell covered in blood, without an eye.
"I just asked a police officer 'did someone lose an eye', and they said 'yes'.
"I saw two or three stretchers being wheeled out of the hotel. It's mental.
"The police were shouting like mad."
The teen recalled how he was waiting for a kebab as the extent of the attack became clear.
Ben said: "I said to my dad 'something's going on'.
"The next moment some came out covered in blood."
Witnesses said about 20 police cars and several ambulances were at the scene. Queen Elizabeth University Hospital was braced for a major incident.
Scottish Police Federation chairman David Hamilton confirmed the injured officer is male.
He said in a statement: "Whilst there is understandable and considerable public interest in the major incident in Glasgow earlier today, our focus at this time is in assisting the family of our colleague who has been seriously injured.
"This is obviously an anxious time for them and we ask that they be left alone as their attentions are very obviously directed towards the care of their loved one.
"Our thoughts, prayers and best wishes are with our colleague, his family and friends, and all colleagues affected by this incident at this time."
The federation, which represents rank and file officers, wrote on Twitter earlier: We appreciate families of police officers in #Glasgow will be anxious to hear that a police officer has been stabbed.

Police are treating that incident as terrorism.
The victims were friends James Furlong, 36, Joe Ritchie-Bennett, 49, and David Wails, 49.


thedailymirror--2020-06-26--And Boris Johnson wonders why people don't follow his rules

It would almost be worth the government ordering the police to arrest every Brixton block party-goer , Bournemouth sunbather and Liverpool fan , just for the spectacle of courts being filled with thousands of people claiming they were testing their eyesight .
Littering ?
`` I could n't see the bins . ''
Hugging strangers ?
`` I thought it was my mum . ''
Jumping up and down on the windscreen of a police car ?
`` I saw an angry young man attacking me and did n't realise it was my own reflection , y'honour . ''
Because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ increased risk of infection in large gatherings of people .
That 's why there are rules .
But it is still not quite so MASSIVE a risk to public health as , say , driving a tank on public roads while fearing that you are not safe to do so .
People on beaches have to get there .
In Bournemouth and Brighton , train stations were packed , filled with handrails and ticket barriers and hard surfaces where the virus could linger .
In Brixton and Anfield there was no social distancing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ piles of rubbish in which coronavirus could lurk , and human faeces in which it can linger for more than a month .
So let 's have a crackdown .
Close the beaches , shut down the raves , ban people from having a poo .
The government has awarded itself the absolute power to do so , and it has now warned that comparatively-low risk social fun is more of a crime than wilfully spreading infection .
But it might make a teeny bit more sense to acknowledge that the open-air may @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the government is encouraging us all to enter .
That public funds might be better spent on ticketed entry to the beaches , toilet facilities , or maybe even a bit of public health education about managing risk .
The government has instead spunked almost £12m on a phone app that does n't work , millions more on a tracing system that is not tracing a quarter of new cases , and has been farting around with its public health message so badly that a sex worker may visit us in our homes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's all very high risk indeed .
The government 's experts have told it , for months , to be consistent if it wishes to carry the public with it .
Rather than correct its inconsistencies , the government responded by gagging the experts , which has merely made the mistakes more weepingly obvious .
There 's plenty of reasons people headed outside after 13 weeks of lockdown , sunny weather , and covid fatigue .
What risks they ran to do so will only become obvious in another 3 weeks or so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's infections may manifest .
But we do know there are no hard surfaces on a beach , those involved are mostly young and healthy , and the risks they ran are not so great as others .
What WILL send infections soaring is an official failure to track a quarter of 1,100 new cases every day .
What WILL push hospitals into meltdown is the fact that a month after promising to test every care home resident , 37 % of residents and 15 % of all care homes have not had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ destroy public health , even quicker than virus-contaminated faeces in public places , is a government that publicly supports a man who refused to self-isolate after his wife fell ill , who drove to his second home despite fearing his family were all infectious , put pressure on local NHS services , and who when caught out claimed there was nothing wrong with any of it .
It has been 6 weeks since the Mirror revealed the scandal of Dominic Cummings ' dash to Durham .
It might take 5 days before symptoms @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tested , and a further fortnight , on average , for an infected person to be hospitalised and die .
Drawing a straight line between Cummings and the death toll , you might expect a spike 3 weeks later .
But only if you think everyone in the country saw the news , ceased social distancing on the spot , and a huge number of infections happened on the same day .
It 's far more likely people started ignoring lockdown over a week or two , as the scandal rumbled on .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ it was obvious to anyone who looked out of their window that the rules no longer applied .
At the same time , in an effort to `` move on '' , the government was briefing about easing social distancing to 1m , reopening pubs , shops , and schools , getting used to `` the new normal '' .
What more excuse did anyone need ?
Between Monday and Wednesday this week the death toll was a total of 583 , a slight uptick .
Over the same three days the week @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think Covid-19 kills between 0.5 % and 1 % of those it infects .
The extra 31 deaths might mean an extra 3,100 to 6,200 infections on top of those we had anyway .
If the R rate were to creep up to an entirely-feasible 1.1 as a result of this weekend 's shenanigans , it could produce double the infections , and double the deaths , within a week .

They'll blame people on the beaches. But 6 weeks after his lockdown-busting dash to Durham, the death toll is Dominic Cummings' responsibility
It would almost be worth the government ordering the police to arrest every Brixton block party-goer, Bournemouth sunbather and Liverpool fan, just for the spectacle of courts being filled with thousands of people claiming they were testing their eyesight.
Littering? "I couldn't see the bins." Hugging strangers? "I thought it was my mum." Jumping up and down on the windscreen of a police car? "I saw an angry young man attacking me and didn't realise it was my own reflection, y'honour."
Because yes, of course there's an increased risk of infection in large gatherings of people. That's why there are rules. But it is still not quite so MASSIVE a risk to public health as, say, driving a tank on public roads while fearing that you are not safe to do so.

People on beaches have to get there. In Bournemouth and Brighton, train stations were packed, filled with handrails and ticket barriers and hard surfaces where the virus could linger. In Brixton and Anfield there was no social distancing, and just about everywhere there were piles of rubbish in which coronavirus could lurk, and human faeces in which it can linger for more than a month.
So let's have a crackdown. Close the beaches, shut down the raves, ban people from having a poo. The government has awarded itself the absolute power to do so, and it has now warned that comparatively-low risk social fun is more of a crime than wilfully spreading infection.
But it might make a teeny bit more sense to acknowledge that the open-air may well be safer than the shops which the government is encouraging us all to enter. That public funds might be better spent on ticketed entry to the beaches, toilet facilities, or maybe even a bit of public health education about managing risk.
The government has instead spunked almost £12m on a phone app that doesn't work, millions more on a tracing system that is not tracing a quarter of new cases, and has been farting around with its public health message so badly that a sex worker may visit us in our homes but not a hairdresser. And that's all very high risk indeed.

The government's experts have told it, for months, to be consistent if it wishes to carry the public with it. Rather than correct its inconsistencies, the government responded by gagging the experts, which has merely made the mistakes more weepingly obvious.
There's plenty of reasons people headed outside after 13 weeks of lockdown, sunny weather, and covid fatigue. What risks they ran to do so will only become obvious in another 3 weeks or so, when any deaths from this weekend's infections may manifest.
But we do know there are no hard surfaces on a beach, those involved are mostly young and healthy, and the risks they ran are not so great as others.
What WILL send infections soaring is an official failure to track a quarter of 1,100 new cases every day.
What WILL push hospitals into meltdown is the fact that a month after promising to test every care home resident, 37% of residents and 15% of all care homes have not had a single test.
And what WILL destroy public health, even quicker than virus-contaminated faeces in public places, is a government that publicly supports a man who refused to self-isolate after his wife fell ill, who drove to his second home despite fearing his family were all infectious, put pressure on local NHS services, and who when caught out claimed there was nothing wrong with any of it.

It has been 6 weeks since the Mirror revealed the scandal of Dominic Cummings' dash to Durham. It might take 5 days before symptoms show, a few more to be tested, and a further fortnight, on average, for an infected person to be hospitalised and die.
Drawing a straight line between Cummings and the death toll, you might expect a spike 3 weeks later. But only if you think everyone in the country saw the news, ceased social distancing on the spot, and a huge number of infections happened on the same day.
It's far more likely people started ignoring lockdown over a week or two, as the scandal rumbled on. Three weeks after the story broke, it was obvious to anyone who looked out of their window that the rules no longer applied.
At the same time, in an effort to "move on", the government was briefing about easing social distancing to 1m, reopening pubs, shops, and schools, getting used to "the new normal". What more excuse did anyone need?
Between Monday and Wednesday this week the death toll was a total of 583, a slight uptick. Over the same three days the week before, it was 552.
Experts think Covid-19 kills between 0.5% and 1% of those it infects. The extra 31 deaths might mean an extra 3,100 to 6,200 infections on top of those we had anyway. If the R rate were to creep up to an entirely-feasible 1.1 as a result of this weekend's shenanigans, it could produce double the infections, and double the deaths, within a week.
These are conservative estimates, in every sense of the word. Because the death toll that comes in the next few days and weeks will prove whether the government's strategy of having no real strategy, beyond protecting its brilliant strategist, was very deadly or only slightly deadly.

If the confirmed cases and deaths rise from this point, it is not an outlier. It is the obvious outcome of spaffing your public health message up the wall by insisting the rules do not apply to those who work in Downing Street.
If the rolling average declines, then it's a blip, but one nevertheless occurring at just the moment a super-forecaster might have predicted. And as we now have a treatment confirmed to work on the worst cases, the numbers should go down anyway.
Either way, it is the Dominic Cummings death toll. One man going walkabout at the peak of the pandemic in April may infect a few people; one man at the heart of government exposed for doing so will have infected millions of people with scorn for the government and its rules.
It's hardly a surprise, then, that people went to the beach. Nor that they have protested, partied, rioted, or brawled. It was inevitable, with a government no longer taken seriously.
The PM is probably wargaming the risks of closing the beaches in the same way as the mayor in Jaws - the impact on the economy, the chances of voters not liking it, the necessity of exerting his authority.
And, just like the mayor, he's missing the point. The economy is already screwed, mass civil disobedience is welcome to many, and if he tries to crack down on people who all, thereafter, claim to be having an optical emergency, then he has no authority left to speak of.
To stop a second wave, there needs to be a functioning test and trace system, rules people happily stick to, and a hygienic means of a having a poo. In the absence of those things, and with an infection that has run rampant for 5 months because of his incompetence, Boris Johnson is blaming the people who went to the beaches.

thedailymirror--2020-06-26--Death threats sent to Cambridge Uni prof after 'white lives don't matter' tweet

A Cambridge University professor says she has received hundreds of abusive messages , including death threats , after tweeting 'White lives do n't matter ' .
Prof Priyamvada Gopal 's comments sparked an huge online backlash which soon snowballed into an `` organised campaign '' against her .
Prof Gopal , who teaches English at Churchill College , tweeted : `` I 'll say it again .
White lives do n't matter .
As white lives . ''
She claims she has since received more than 50 abusive emails and hundreds of tweets , some of which included death threats @ @ @ @ @ @ @ messages , a man said `` We are coming for you , you n***** loving piece of s*** ... '' , accompanied by a diagram showing how to make a noose .
Speaking to Cambridgeshire Live , the professor from India explained her tweets : `` I was saying whiteness is n't the reason lives should matter .
`` Lives do matter , but not because they are white .
I say the same thing about my own community .
`` When I talk about abolishing whiteness , I talk about political practices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whether white or brown , should be abolished .
`` It 's about abolishing a race hierarchy where whites are at the top . ''
Prof Gopal was temporarily suspended from Twitter under its 'hateful content policy ' after the social media platform upheld several complaints made against her .
The ban has since been lifted .
One online forum has dedicated a page to sharing insults and disclosing personal details about Prof Gopal , encouraging others to send her messages .
The recently promoted professor said the last 24 hours had been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's not the first time , '' she said .
`` I 'm routinely targeted , but this is the biggest campaign , mainly coming from the USA . ''
`` It 's like watching a huge amount of sewerage flowing past you .
`` You realise how much hate there is out there and how much work needs to be done . ''
A petition to 'Fire Cambridge Professor for Racism ' has garnered more than 13,000 signatures over the last 24 hours .
The organiser of the petition , Renee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , said : `` Allowing Ms Gopal to continue lecturing at Cambridge sets a precedent that this behavior [ sic ] is acceptable and welcome amongst teaching faculty .
Racism can not be tolerated . ''
Cambridge University has already offered its indirect support to Prof Gopal , who has worked there for 20 years .
A statement read : `` The University defends the right of its academics to express their own lawful opinions which others might find controversial and deplores in the strongest terms abuse and personal attacks .

Prof Priyamvada Gopal, who teaches English at Churchill College, has sparked outrage after tweeting about 'abolishing whiteness' and police are investigating the racist messages she's been sent
Death threats sent to Cambridge University professor after 'white lives don't matter' tweet
A Cambridge University professor says she has received hundreds of abusive messages, including death threats, after tweeting 'White lives don't matter'.
Prof Priyamvada Gopal's comments sparked an huge online backlash which soon snowballed into an "organised campaign" against her.
Prof Gopal, who teaches English at Churchill College, tweeted: "I'll say it again. White lives don't matter. As white lives."
She then added: "Abolish whiteness."
She claims she has since received more than 50 abusive emails and hundreds of tweets, some of which included death threats.
In one of the most disturbing messages, a man said "We are coming for you, you n***** loving piece of s***...", accompanied by a diagram showing how to make a noose.

Speaking to Cambridgeshire Live, the professor from India explained her tweets: "I was saying whiteness isn't the reason lives should matter.
"Lives do matter, but not because they are white. I say the same thing about my own community.
"When I talk about abolishing whiteness, I talk about political practices and ideologies. Systems of oppression, whether white or brown, should be abolished.
"It's about abolishing a race hierarchy where whites are at the top."
Prof Gopal was temporarily suspended from Twitter under its 'hateful content policy' after the social media platform upheld several complaints made against her.
The ban has since been lifted.

One online forum has dedicated a page to sharing insults and disclosing personal details about Prof Gopal, encouraging others to send her messages.
The recently promoted professor said the last 24 hours had been "tiring and relentless".
"It's not the first time," she said. "I'm routinely targeted, but this is the biggest campaign, mainly coming from the USA."
"It's like watching a huge amount of sewerage flowing past you.
"You realise how much hate there is out there and how much work needs to be done."
A petition to 'Fire Cambridge Professor for Racism' has garnered more than 13,000 signatures over the last 24 hours.
The organiser of the petition, Renee Myers, who is from the US, said: "Allowing Ms Gopal to continue lecturing at Cambridge sets a precedent that this behavior [sic] is acceptable and welcome amongst teaching faculty. Racism cannot be tolerated."
Cambridge University has already offered its indirect support to Prof Gopal, who has worked there for 20 years.
A statement read: "The University defends the right of its academics to express their own lawful opinions which others might find controversial and deplores in the strongest terms abuse and personal attacks.
"These attacks are totally unacceptable and must cease."
The threats were reported to Cambridgeshire Police, who said they are aware of the Twitter post.
A spokeswoman said: "After receiving multiple complaints in relation to the content, officers have reviewed it and concluded no offence has been committed.
"We have also received several reports of malicious communications targeting the author of the Tweet.
"This content is now also being reviewed by officers."


thedailymirror--2020-06-26--No10 says people can keep going to the beach despite Covid-19 fears over crowds

People in England can keep going to the beach , No10 declared today - despite fears crowds risk a new coronavirus outbreak .
Heaving scenes on Bournemouth Beach yesterday prompted the council to declare a major incident - and warn people not to travel to Sandbanks .
But No10 said today that in general , as long as social distancing rules are followed , people do not need to stop going to the beach in England .
And Downing Street passed the buck to councils , not the government , to issue any direct orders to close popular spots .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ have that power '' to shut beaches entirely .
Yet today Downing Street rowed back on his comments .
A No10 spokesman said : `` I believe Matt Hancock , when he spoke , was referring to the powers to impose localised lockdowns .
`` We have been clear throughout [ they ] may need to be the case if we see case numbers rise in a particular area . ''
When it comes to directly shutting beaches , he added : `` Local authorities are best-placed to make these decisions on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could close schools , shops and public spaces like beaches - but crucially , they would likely only come after a spike in the number of cases .
Asked if beaches should be closed pre-emptively , the spokesman repeatedly said it was for `` local authorities '' to decide .
No10 also stood by Boris Johnson 's claims this week that coastal resorts should `` show some guts '' and `` roll out the welcome mat . ''
`` The PM 's words speak for themselves , '' the spokesman said .
`` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enjoy the open space that we have in this country and take exercise where they need it .
“ But we also at the same time need to ensure that we ’ re following the social distancing guidelines that e have set out on a number of occasions.
” Asked if the Tory leader took any responsibility at all for the scenes in Bournemouth , the spokesman said : `` We published the roadmap in May that set out the government ’ s plan for the easement of lockdown .
“ As the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we want people to be able to enjoy outside spaces and we want them to be able to go to and enjoy leisure facilities such as the beach .
“ But we ’ ve also been clear we need to ensure we don ’ t see case numbers start to rise again , and therefore we continue to ask people to abide by the social distancing guidelines . ''
Thousands travelled to the coast and packed out the beach , flouting social distancing guidelines as they squeezed together in the 33C temperatures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ England 's coastline - despite authorities pleas to stay away as the UK 's official coronavirus death toll tops 43,000 .
Environment Secretary George Eustice warned there is “ clearly an increased risk ” for people packing Bournemouth Beach and it was of `` concern '' .
But he said the government is `` very reluctant '' to shut beaches - saying it would only happen if absolutely necessary .
And he predicted the hordes of people would reduce once this week 's hot weather begins to cool down .
Local MP Tobias @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said : `` This place was deluged and social distancing went out the window and that 's why a major incident was declared , because the local authority and indeed the police could n't cope . ''
He told BBC Breakfast : `` The beach should have been closed down , or at least shut down to prevent further people from entering it .
`` We need to learn from this and recognise that if we 're going to be serious about tackling this pandemic then we need to be swifter in being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who are unable to cope . ''

"We have been clear throughout [they] may need to be the case if we see case numbers rise in a particular area."
When it comes to directly shutting beaches, he added: "Local authorities are best-placed to make these decisions on a case-by-case basis."
Any local lockdowns could close schools, shops and public spaces like beaches - but crucially, they would likely only come after a spike in the number of cases.
Asked if beaches should be closed pre-emptively, the spokesman repeatedly said it was for "local authorities" to decide.
Boris Johnson today warned people against "taking liberties" with social distancing rules, saying it could lead to a "serious spike" in infections.
Speaking during a visit to a restaurant in east London ahead of an easing of lockdown on July 4, the Prime Minister said: "If you look at what's happening elsewhere in the world where people have been coming out of lockdown.
"I'm afraid what you're also seeing is people taking too many liberties with the guidance, mingling too much, not observing social distancing.
"So in some parts of the world - I won't name them - you have got spikes, really serious spikes, in the instance of the disease.
"So it is crucial that people understand that on July 4 we get this right, we do this in a balanced way."
No10 also stood by Boris Johnson's claims this week that coastal resorts should "show some guts" and "roll out the welcome mat."

"The PM's words speak for themselves," the spokesman said.
"We want people to be able to enjoy the open space that we have in this country and take exercise where they need it.

“As the PM and other ministers have said repeatedly, we want people to be able to enjoy outside spaces and we want them to be able to go to and enjoy leisure facilities such as the beach.
“But we’ve also been clear we need to ensure we don’t see case numbers start to rise again, and therefore we continue to ask people to abide by the social distancing guidelines."
Thousands travelled to the coast and packed out the beach, flouting social distancing guidelines as they squeezed together in the 33C temperatures.
The overcrowded beaches caused chaos along England's coastline - despite authorities pleas to stay away as the UK's official coronavirus death toll tops 43,000.
Environment Secretary George Eustice warned there is “clearly an increased risk” for people packing Bournemouth Beach and it was of "concern".
But he said the government is "very reluctant" to shut beaches - saying it would only happen if absolutely necessary.
And he predicted the hordes of people would reduce once this week's hot weather begins to cool down.
Local MP Tobias Ellwood, speaking from Bournemouth beach, said: "This place was deluged and social distancing went out the window and that's why a major incident was declared, because the local authority and indeed the police couldn't cope."
He told BBC Breakfast: "The beach should have been closed down, or at least shut down to prevent further people from entering it.
"We need to learn from this and recognise that if we're going to be serious about tackling this pandemic then we need to be swifter in being able to provide support to local authorities who are unable to cope."

Mr Drakeford said the reasons were 'complex' and still be explored, but Wales having older, sicker and poorer population than the UK was a likely factor.
