DAILY MAIL — Casual sex will be allowed again for the first time this year as part of the Government’s latest lifting of lockdown measures.

Single Britons have been unable to meet for up for sex with overnight stays and indoor socialising banned since December.

But Boris Johnson tonight confirmed a raft of changes to lockdown laws from May 17.

Social distancing rules for those who know each other will also be relaxed to allow people to kiss and hug – meaning casual sex is back on.
