If you only have one night stands its now illegal, but if your hitched up with someone its ok. Surely this is a human rights violation?

The spread of COVID-19 is based on two factors:

1. How dense the population is
2. How dense the population is

You're the second one.

It is still legal in England as long as there are no more than 6 taking part!

Given your previous threads it won’t cause you an issue anyway.

Would be a valid point if it was the case

Of course the original lockdown did disproportionately affect those not co-habiting.

But in a blow to would-be lotharios, casual sex is still banned in government guidance - although it's probably for the best given the rising number of cases.

This looks horrible and I wonder if it’s enforceable in this country?

What's the point in that.

I'm writing to my MP!

But what are the rules that render this the case? I'm not sure such encounters are explicitly mentioned in any guidelines, rather that is how the Mirror have interpreted them, for a good headline.

Of course we've been advised to stay 2m from people we don't live with, but what is the law surrounding that, and how has that changed since March?

We're joking here, of course, but wasn't there some bizarre hedonistic antics at some French nudist camp that ended up in a cluster of cases a few months back?

The BBC's article is a bit clearer than the one from the Mirror, though it isn't clear if 'banned' actually means illegal or just not allowed under 'guidelines'. I thought guidelines were simply guidance/recommendation.
