The police? Just a left wing campaigning organisation that are still sore about Brexit. |  |

What odd wording. It's either a breach or it isn't. It's like being slightly pregnant. | |

Consistent with previous high-profile offenders Nigel Farage(travelled 100 or so miles to do some racism) and Stephen Kinnock(150 miles to deliver 'essential supplies' to his parents in London) who both had tickings-off(albeit via social media in Kinnock's case) in all fairness.
Farage of course, complained about what a terrible waste of time it all was.

They were all acting legally and with integrity, but can understand why reasonably-minded people might disagree with them. | |

Did Kinnock travel that far given he has a house in London? |  |

A couple of lawyers have explained the wording on twitter. "Might" basically means that they believe he did, hence if they'd pulled him over they'd have advised him to return home. If he'd refused then they'd have issued a fixed penalty notice but if chose to refuse to pay the matter would end up before the court and they would have to determine. That's why they have used "might" as, in principle, a court could disagree with their interpretation. |  |

Incoming from Laura K - A PM's source has just told me "the Police are of course entitled to their opinion".
Probably. But I may have made that up  |  |

You mean MPs who were in London while the lockdown was announced and returned home for the Easter recess ?
I'm sure there will be many from each party there. | | | |

Returning to their primary residence. Not the same as leaving your primary residence to stay with the folks. |  | | |
