Christmas will be interesting. People round here have no intention of keeping to groups of six for Christmas dinner. I don’t think they have enough inspectors to catch anything more than a very small minority of the population and I dare say that not many will want to work on Christmas Day!

Don’t the police need a warrant to come into your premises without permission?
Or...

She could have self-isolated in her London accommodation, in line with Government guidelines...

Quote:
Entry into property
 Police need a warrant before they can enter and search premises.
 However, the Coronavirus Act 2020 has provisions within it to cover the power of entry in certain exceptional circumstances.
 Schedule 21 of the Coronavirus Act allows an officer to enter a property where they have reasonable grounds to suspect that a person within is potentially infectious, and they need to direct or remove the person for screening and assessment.
 Officers must be sure it is both necessary and proportionate to enter a property on these grounds. They must confer with a public health officer unless it is not practicable to do so due to exceptional circumstances.
I would imagine Schedule 21 might get invoked quite frequently...
