I find it hard to see that the threatened £1,000 fine makes any sense - and what an omission of failure it is in the first place.
It will fuel even more resentment, esp after the Cummings and Jenrick sanction-free outings.
For mixing - sorry, mingling - in groups it doesn't begin to match the ability-to-pay of those we've been told are the main offenders. The Govt can 'go whistle' for £1,000 from the young unless it's prepared for lengthy proceedings and custodial threats! - £50 cash probably a more effective deterrent.
If something is really thought needed, community orders would surely be more to the point, esp a bout of street sweeping / rubbish picking.

Parents-in-Law. What do/did you call them?
