The UK could be forced under a full lockdown within hours if the public does not heed pleas to stay two metres apart outdoors.
The Prime Minister responded to scenes of huge crowds flocking to Britain's parks, beaches, and holiday spots on Mother's Day yesterday.
Boris Johnson said there was no ban on going outdoors for fresh air - yet - as he told Brits to stay home as much as possible.
But the PM warned in yesterday's press conference the Government is ready to impose tougher restrictions to curb the spread of the coronavirus if people do not follow the guidance on social distancing and stay two metres apart.
