Prime Minister Boris Johnson warned British residents on Sunday that if they do not follow social-distancing rules in public, he’ll introduce “tougher measures” to enforce them. “The best thing that everybody can do, if you’re going outside, is observe social distancing,” the prime minister said at a news conference. A reporter asked Johnson why stricter measures were not already being enforced after images surfaced of crowded parks over the weekend. Johnson said that if people did not exercise “responsibly” in parks and green spaces, the government “no doubt” would roll out further measures to enforce social distancing. In London, Mayor Sadiq Khan said police could be used to enforce measures.
