Children visiting non resident parent's house

Is this covered in the rules from Monday? Ex is in a household of 7 but has apparently bubbled with both his single dad and his partner's single best friend. And her mum. That's in addition to the 7 of them who actually live there. They live in a hot spot where rates aren't far off 100/100,000. I'm extremely clinically vulnerable and we are currently self isolating anyway due to symptoms but I'm wondering where I stand with being very concerned about dc going to that household. Does anyone know?

Yesit's civere and allowed. DC who have two homes can continue existing patters of contact.

It is however wrong that the other household has bubbled with two singletons when it should only be one.

And I would question the wisdom of moving a self-isolating person between households, especially as you say you are isolating because of symptoms. When does the first symptomatic person get their test results?

Children are allowed to move between their homes but not while the household is isolating. The dads household is not properly following the rules, wouldnt bother me enough to stop my kids seeing their dad but easy for me to say as non of us are vulnerable. Maybe have a conversation with him about it as a starting point

We've not been able to access tests and are now on day 6 so too late. It's been a week of trying several times a day.
At the moment the dc aren't going due to an ongoing court case as their dad is abusive but the court are wanting contact to restart. This isn't safe due to the abuse but also not safe due to covid. It's a nightmare.

@Bercows I've seen a few of your replies to threads I've been on before.
Didn't notice you were self isolating though - last thing you need!

On the original issue, whilst their dad is breaking the rules, there's nothing you can do other than talk to him & try to come to an agreement. Easier said than done whilst dealing with an abusive twat though. I really hope it all works out for you & DC
