People in Liverpool should be prepared to be detained by police this holiday weekend as the shutdown continues.
There are a number of rules that people in the city need to know and that officers can stop people to ask why they are out.
On VE day Friday, Merseyside police said parties and other large social gatherings would end over the weekend.
During the bank holiday, the police will also stop the cars to ensure that motorists make essential trips.
There will also be foot patrols in Merseyside to enforce current restrictions.
Chief Inspector Chris Joughin of the Merseyside Police said: “Many thousands of people made sacrifices to protect us during World War II, so the least we can do is listen to the government when they ask us to stay home.” .

“Like the previous weekend of bank holidays, we will be on the verge of checking that people are not breaking the restrictions and reminding people why the restrictions exist and encouraging them to do the right thing and go home.”
“We will also make ad hoc stops to verify that motorists are making essential trips and officers on foot patrols will speak to members of the public who are about to verify that they are not violating regulations.”

There are also a number of rules that people will need to adhere to if they head out to shop for essentials this weekend.
Many people will plan to stock up on food or DIY supplies, but people shouldn’t jump the gun and go out just because of the good weather.
Yesterday, the Merseyside Police tweeted about having to break a Crosby beach barbecue party, saying “please don’t be tempted to do something so silly putting yourself and others at risk.”
So if you are thinking about going to the stores this holiday weekend, there is a set of rules you should follow to help keep yourself and others safe, MEN reports.
This is the complete list, issued by the Council of Chiefs of the National Police, of what you can and cannot go shopping during the festive weekend.
What you can and cannot buy during closing
- To buy food for several days, including luxury items and alcohol.
- To buy a small quantity of a basic or necessary item (for example, a newspaper, pet food, a loaf of bread or a pint of milk)
- To collect surplus staples from a friend
- To buy tools and supplies to repair a bad weather damaged fence panel
- You are allowed to purchase non-essential items during a shopping trip for your weekly needs.
- The list says it’s not likely to be considered reasonable to go shopping for DIY supplies for a non-essential project – for example, repainting your kitchen.
