The nightclub thing is ridiculous. Are they really trying to introduce new rules, just to stop people having fun there?! And forbidding "vertical drinking" 
there, means it'd have to be forbidden in pubs too. But I thought the point of removing SD, capacity limits and stuff meant that people would be allowed to order from the bar and drink there if they want, where that is normal for the venue (council licensing may impose restrictions too, I suppose). If there are still limits based on the number of tables a venue can fit in, and people still need to be at a table to eat/drink that's not "removing restrictions" is it?! It's keeping existing restrictions, just without the requirement to be 1m apart. It can't be to do with masks, because eating/drinking is a valid reason to remove a mask, whether or not you're sat down.
Also, without a full revamp of the regulations I'm not sure how any "guidance" (no vertical drinking etc) can be imposed anyway. I thought the only laws that were going to be kept was the masks, keeping customer details in hospitality, and the whole testing/ isolating with symptoms thing. As the requirement for businesses to "have regard to SG guidance", allow for SD, and so on is tied in with the various tiers it won't apply from Monday, as we won't be in tiers from then. So unless it is changed wholesale before then I can't see how anything can be enforced. I'd assumed they would just revoke sections of the existing regs - but I don't think that will work.
It's all very underhand and secretive anyway, and I'm not sure that's the best way to make laws!
