No I wouldn’t.
People can meet up with 1 person now and I don’t see the difference of meeting someone in a park 2 metres apart or in their garden 2 metres apart.

Nah I can't be arsed worrying about other people and what they are too, if you are concerned report them they might get a fine then what somebody else in your street has a visitor.

Certainly not … there maybe all sorts of reasons, like your daughter is working from home and not furloughed because she cannot take her daughter to the child minders 'cos it is shut but she can work from home (physically). She is sitting on a ticking time bomb juggling working from home with looking after the child and all the rest that goes with it (with a child of 2) who is restless and wants to integrate. That person needs the support of her mother /father where and when possible purely for the protection of developing mental health issues such as depression due to stress and isolation. There are lots of reasons why people break the rules but sometimes they are necessary (distancing within a home/garden is possible for one or two) … Barbeques with family, mates and others in a group is not acceptable; however. Would I/Wouldn't I, depends on the circumstances. Nothing is pure black/white there are grey areas. I am self-employed and work from home in any case (for the medical sector) so I am used to be on my own. The lack of work currently is very depressing though as I still have bills to pay … but I soldier your on everyday. Positivity is the key to all.

Isn't a "street party" a gathering? Although I know lockdown restrictions are different in different countries.

No - unless we are talking massive party in the garden territory.

Absolutely not. If they have respected the rules so far I would assume there is a very god reason. How on earth do you know they have visitors anyway?

So why would you even ask the question? Genuinely, what is the matter with you?

And who were you planning to report them to?
