The Government promised a press conference for any big announcement but it seems to believe this is not such an announcement.
I would have thought good practice would be to either let everyone know as soon as possible as they did then follow up with a press conference the next day or just announce it at the press conference so the message is as clear as possible. (Clarity v speed of messaging debate)

What are you not allowed to do under the new rules if you live in one of the affected areas?
Meet people you do not live with inside a home or garden, except where you have formed a support bubble. (A support bubble can be formed by an adult who lives by themselves, or is a single parent with dependent children, with one other household of any size to form a close support network - allowing close contact with them as you could if they were members of your own household)
Visit someone else's home or garden, even if they live outside the affected areas
