So for England, here& #39;s your new normal

1. Pubs + hospitality + hairdressers opening sat 4th
2. & #39;1 metre plus& #39; - the new rule on social distancing
3. 2 households now allowed to meet INDOORS
4. Outdoor gyms, theme parks, libraries all able to open too
5. Gyms, theatres, nail bars + some other facilities shut
6. Doors will be locked again if there are new flareups
7. & #39;Mitigations& #39; eg putting your name down at the door of the pub (yup), wearing masks on public transport, screens put in place in biz, all expected too
But PM says & #39;our national hibernation& #39; is coming to an end .. it& #39;s a big moment after three months of extraordinary measures
Also important to note the new rules will be & #39;guidance& #39; not legislation - moving into a phase where common sense, not the cops, will be trying to implement all of this
PM committed to publishing the SAGE advice on the changes - likely the Chief Scientist and Medical Officer will be at the press conference later today too
