Couples living apart in areas with Tier 2 restrictions are not allowed to have sleepovers unless they are in a “support bubble”, Downing Street confirmed today.

Boyfriends and girlfriends will be able to meet outdoors in Tier 2 but are expected to adhere to social distancing rules such as hands, face and space. They must also adhere to the rule of six.

The Prime Minister’s official spokesman told a briefing of Westminster journalists: “The rules on household mixing in Tier 2 set out that you should mix with your own household only unless you’ve formed a support bubble and that obviously does apply to some couples.”

Asked if couples in Tier 2 can meet outside, he said: “Yes, as it was set out in the guidance that was published this week the ban on household mixing is in relation to indoors and outdoors the rule of six applies.”

12. So they risk getting corona?

I don’t see this as getting rid of sex but keeping people from getting coronavirus. It’s flared up in many part of London.

4. Who enforces no sex "inside"?

So can you go to a pub and drink but not have sex at home? Good luck with that.

6. You can only go to the pub or restaurant with a member of your own household

So most forms of dating for non-cohabiting couples are essentially banned.

I would imagine that everyone on POF and Tinder has suddenly taken up hiking as their main hobby!
