Plan B restrictions will continue in England for the foreseeable future - and that’s sparked some mixed views among the general public of late.

Under current restrictions face masks are compulsory in most indoor settings, people are being encouraged to work from home if they can and people need to show vaccine passports or a negative lateral flow test to enter large scale events.

We wanted to know how the people of Newcastle felt about the restrictions - and if they think they should be changed or remain the same?

We took to the streets to get their thoughts.
