PM says social distancing will be left up to ‘personal choice’ as he confirms next phase of roadmap will go ahead as planned
Social distancing between family and friends is to be left up to “personal choice” from next week and gatherings of six people from different households will be allowed indoors again, the government has announced as lockdown in England is eased further.
Confirming that the next step of his roadmap will go ahead as planned, Boris Johnson said that from Monday 17 May, pubs and restaurants can throw open their doors to serve people inside – and people can gather in groups of 30 outside.
