The rules are not clear.
The restriction says gatherings of up to 30 people are allowed, but also says there are exemptions for religious events.
But weddings and funerals are currently limited, so the exemption is not being universally applied.
Not sure the restaurant owner was ignorant of the guidelines, sounds like he was trying it on and got caught.

They should have all taken BLM placards and claimed it was a BLM protest. Plod would have all taken the knee and left apologising profusley.
Currently the law regarding COVID is an ass. No common sense in it at all, which is what you get with knee jerk reactions incompetent,ministers and a hiding PM.

The Manager makes a valid point.
//“It is actually busier here from a Monday to a Wednesday when we have the ‘Eat Out to help Out’ Scheme running. I don’t see the police or anyone making a fuss then?
“We were staffing it the same way with hand sanitisers at the entrance and other measures as we would have during the week.”//

That's because when it's full people are in small 'bubbles' and social distancing is employed. Somehow I doubt that this place holds 120 when social distancing rules apply. Blackburn is in special measures. it has one of the highest rates in the country. I do not believe there was no mixing going on between tables.
I'm not sure why YMB has brought BLM into this- I didn't see any references to colour of the partygoers in the report.
I think there is some sense in the rules than people give credit for. What's really needed is to shut down the pubs and restaurants completely for 2 weeks and stop all weddings/ funerals etc, but those that criticise the government whatever they do would criticise that too. AB shows how it's easy to criticise and make childish jokes about the name ending inCock, but it's harder to make constructive suggestions a sto alternatives

"abdul toheed - - - tawheed is unification or oneness with God"
True, but his name is not Toheed, but 'Abd-ul Toheed'
Abdul, as you surely know if you can translate Toheed, means 'servant of the ...', so Toheed is not a surname but simply an element of the surname that, as a whole, suggests obedience to the unity of the universe (hardly something to deride, even for an atheist like myself).
It is like mocking a Scot for being called Donald Donald if their surname is actually MacDonald, or 'Son of Donald', which makes perfect sense.
We usually use names as they are given, without attempting to translate them. It avoids calling someone an overeducated stone, for example.
Maybe it's just me, but I think it is beneath the dignity of decent people to sneer at others for the names they were given at birth, although obviously those we choose as adults are fair game, Rock Stickler.
