The West Midlands are currently under Tier 2 restrictions, meaning people cannot mix with any other households or bubbles inside.
Mr Jamieson told The Telegraph: ‘If we think there’s large groups of people gathering where they shouldn’t be, then police will have to intervene. If, again, there’s flagrant breaking of the rules, then the police would have to enforce.
