UK house prices slip for first time since June, may fall further
British house prices have fallen for the first time in seven months in January before the end of a tax cut for buyers on March 31, mortgage lender Nationwide said, adding that the market could weaken sharply.
House prices jumped in 2020 after Britain’s first coronavirus lockdown last spring, helped by finance minister Rishi Sunak’s decision to suspend purchase taxes on properties worth up to 500,000 pounds ($684,400.00) and by people seeking bigger homes in response to the lockdown restrictions.

Will 2021 Be The Year That Travel Returns To Normal?
Although travel has partially recovered from the early days of the pandemic, air travel is still at 46% of 2019 rates globally, with as much as an 80% reduction on U.K. flights. If you compare that to 9/11, in 2001, 1.66 billion passengers flew, the year after the attack, figures were back up at 1.63 billion passengers. Both 9/11 and the current situation have a lot in common; one of the main reasons people are not flying now is fear. Again, in both scenarios, airlines and airports have done everything than can to instill passenger confidence.

UK is advising against all travel to the US amid the coronavirus pandemic
The U.K. government is advising citizens and residents against all travel to the U.S. in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
In a brief statement, the U.K. Foreign Office said it is “advising against all but essential travel to the USA,” a day after the U.S. government expanded its list of countries whose nationals are effectively banned from entering the U.S. to include the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The announcement by the U.K. authorities follows a move by the Trump administration to impose restrictions on foreign travelers entering the U.S. in an effort to help stem the number of infections of the coronavirus strain, COVID-19, which last week was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization.
