Boris J has announced new distancing rules for family gatherings outside the home (so applying to pubs, parks, other people’s houses, etc).

Known as the Cousin Rule, it allows cousins to visit cousins, but NOT 2nd cousins. The fine for visiting 2nd cousins has not been announced. Phoning cousins is still not allowed, but texting 2nd cousins is okay, except for maternal cousins once removed, where the strict guidelines apply. This of course applies only to England. If your 2nd cousin once removed on your mother’s side was born in Scotland before 1985, you can speak by phone, but not by text.

Boris Johnson said “You know it makes sense.”

confused of London, don't get this at all, unless its a wind up
Emmie, I think it's sarcasm (& very funny). I think it was Oscar Wilde who said that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence.
Nice one Allen - just about sums up the general muddled thinking of this useless so-called government.
Childish really for you, allen
ah i see now....
Some people on Facebook etc are pretty good at picking holes but not so good at making constructive suggestions. But this is Chatterbank, the home of chat and nonsense.
Well done, Allen.
Alice will be along shortly to explain the details.
Actually I think that is rather whittey :-)
Sums up Boris's "rules" perfectly - confused and confusing.
Diddly, can't you recognise a wind-up when you see one?
Question Author
I was prompted to satirise the latest Rules change after hearing it on the box, and saying "What? what?" - I really found it confusing, and I don't meet anybody!
It must be difficult for the government to keep up with the changing circumstances surrounding Covid19,especially when the rules and the advice for local areas conflicts with the advice given to the public as a whole.
This is a perfect translation of Tory Goblygook Language ,Spot on Allen.
What are the latest rules?

Very funny, allen BTW. :)
Jo//What are the latest rules?//
It depends on whether or not .you live in an area where there has been a spike in Covid19.
what if your 2nd cousin happens to be your wife ?
[email protected] - did you miss the point of my first comment or was it too subtle for you?
Diddly,//was it too subtle for you?//
Probably, as there was really no point to the post, or to any of your usual rubbish.
What a load of drivel.
Puerile nonsense.
