A "selfish" sports club has been fined £1,000 for opening its bar and serving alcohol to members.
Council member Rob Nolan said there was "no excuse" for their actions, putting "members and the local community at risk" from Covid-19., hospitality venues, including pubs, bars and social clubs, must remain closed unless they are providing takeaway food and drinks.Mr Nolan, portfolio holder for environment and public protection, said the number of coronavirus cases in Cornwall,in the seven days up to and including 17 January, was "higher than we'd like".
Mr Nolan emphasised the council would work with businesses to help them follow the rules and how to enforce them, but they would "not hesitate" to take action against businesses who "refuse to follow the rules".
So many comments on here are why we are in this mess, stay home, stay safe and enjoy the chance that one day we can meet again in the sun!!
Rules are rules, shut them down and remove the license...endex
Remove their licence.
It is idiots like these who are spreading the virus! Make them work on a Covid ward for a day! They won’t be so keen to break the rules then! coronavirus
Good luck to them 👏👏👏
BBC is scaremongering.
Good! Idiots!

Soon to be offset by the government plans to pay £500 for positive tests and self-isolation.
