London, UK, 16 December 2021: In the Old Town area of Clapham pubs and restaurants have gone all out on the Christmas lights but the customers are staying home to avoid the risk of catching the omicron variant of coronavirus. Early on Thursday evening some pubs were almost completely empty and none had more than a third of the seats taken. Mild, dry weather means that outdoor seating remains an option for people hoping to socialise safely. Without some form of government support it seems unlikely that many businesses will be able to stay open. Anna Watson/Alamy Live News
