The government is urging neighbors to report groups of more than 6 people to police – BBC News

New laws banning the gathering of people in groups of more than 6 have come into force in England, Scotland and Wales. In England, where fines of up to £ 3,200 apply, Interior Minister Kit Malthouse has asked people to sue their neighbors for breaking new laws. But police forces have not yet been instructed to enforce rules that differ in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Meanwhile, Scottish Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon has been accused of “playing politics with the pandemic” after expressing serious concern about the delay in the results of the coronavirus test. England’s Health Minister Matt Hancock said most people get results quickly. However, the shortage of staff in government laboratories is presenting major challenges.
