Full list of everything you can and can't do as Boris Johnson eases lockdown restrictions

Boris Johnson has announced an easing of lockdown restrictions across England, to take effect from July 4.

The two-metre social distancing rule can now be relaxed and replaced with a "one metre plus" rule.

This involves keeping one metre apart, plus other mitigations such as wearing face coverings, sitting people side to side rather than face to face to reduce transmission, and increased use of hand sanitiser.

Indoor gatherings of any two households will now be allowed. People will be able to visit someone's house for a dinner party, for example, or to stay over with grandparents as long as social distancing is observed.

Many venues and businesses will be allowed to reopen, as long as they are "Covid-secure", for example by maintaining social distancing.
