Sky News published this video item, entitled “COVID-19: PM faces lockdown showdown with Tory MPs” – below is their description.
Boris Johnson will have to persuade rebel Tory MPs to back his new tiers system when the issue goes to the vote on Tuesday.
The government announced its tougher three tiers to tackle the virus last week.
But some Tory backbenchers have threatened to vote against the motion when it comes to the Commons.
That would leave the PM relying on Labour to get his measures through.

Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.
In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
