New restrictions in some of the north of England

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53602362
"Separate households will not be allowed to meet indoors in Greater Manchester, East Lancashire and parts of West Yorkshire from midnight, the government has announced. He also said the same restrictions will apply to the city of Leicester."

Not going to enforce that, are they? :wacko:

Don't hold out much hope for this area, one of those listed, going by the councils record so far.

I don't hold out that much hope when you look around the world at places with more outbreaks, of which they aren't necessarily being talked about on the news as one area is focussed on and then another.

You can’t meet friends at home anymore, but you can still meet them at the pub.
brilliant!
Anyone who doesn’t care will carry on as usual. It’s always the same, the Minority of idiots ruin it for the sensible majority.

That covers my area - but where I am has basically no cases. :cursing:

It's down to certain groups meeting up - and it's known exactly who and where they are. They won't take any notice of this, just as they haven't before.

That is rather cryptic.

Who are these certain groups?

The wording says it's covers all in door areas so you can't meet up unless it's outdoors.

It's Eid this weekend and Moslems in the areas specified will be celebrating Eid-al-Adha by visiting each others' houses.

The figures in Kirklees (my area) show concentrations of cases in three specific areas, which also correspond to high BAME (almost entirely Moslem) populations and a large Romanian/Hungarian population who are working in the bed factories/meat processing. It's been covered in local media, together with cultural leaders, for several weeks asking them to stop meeting up.

It apparently covers private gardens as well: https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news...onavirus-yorkshire-bradford-kirklees-18692041

What were the latest ONS deaths in these areas that went to the end of June?

One of the districts here had 66 deaths in such a small area, absolutely horrific.
