However, it appears some people just are not getting the message with police spotting a gathering of more than two people in Chatteris in the early hours of this morning to fix a car radio, while others remain confused and have been calling police for guidance about which businesses are allowed to remain open.

“We would encourage people to report any information they have about pubs, restaurants, venues staying open and acting against this advice by reporting this online at www.cambs.police.uk/report.”

She added: “Any venues found to be ignoring or going against government advice will be dealt with appropriately.”
