Social gatherings of more than six people will be illegal in England from Monday as the British government seeks to curb the rise in coronavirus cases.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson will use a press conference later to announce the change in the law after the number of daily positive Covid-19 cases in the UK rose to almost 3,000.

The legal limit on social gatherings will be reduced from 30 people to six. It will apply to gatherings indoors and outdoors, including private homes, as well as parks, pubs and restaurants.

Gatherings of more than six people will be allowed where the household or support bubble is larger than six, or where the gathering is for work or education purposes.
