A family member wants to move in with his girlfriend (I’ve only met her once in passing).

Avoiding the Coronavirus barriers to the move aibu for not wanting another ‘women’ under my roof? I feel like it would just be awkward like I’d need to get dressed everyday/have to clear a space on my shelf for her shampoo/get silently pissed if she ate the last of my favourite food etc etc but also making sure the house was spotless as I would for guests. I’m not sure if I’m being petty?

You must say no because you already can’t stand the idea of it.

A female family member was staying at mine until recently and I was a bit hesitant about her moving in. I hated her presence within about an hour. It already won’t work for you.

Christ no not with that update.

That would be my idea of hell. I love my brother but only meet up occasionally. I also love my own space and in the current circumstances I would rather be home alone rather than fighting or avoiding someone in a small house.

No way. Why why would you believe they've been isolated or would isolate with you if he wouldnt even socially distance?

He sounds selfish and self absorbed. Someone awful to live with, let alone someone you don't know!

You have the perfect excuse. We are in lockdown. Everyone must stay where they are.

His girlfriends parents have probably kicked them out.

How old is he?

Absolutely no way Op.
You’re making sacrifices for your Mother’s health.
Your brother chose to not declare his earnings, and to move in with his GF’s family. Decisions made - he’s an adult. Let him sort his shit out.
