The police wont give you a yes or no answer, it isnt their decision to make, if it is essential pest control then yes, people call their local police station just to get a log number which just let's the police know when and where you are incase they get a call from jo. public...but after Boris,s speech on sunday in my eyes it still isnt clear that we can go unless its essential pest control, which only you can decide, but if you get stopped by a stroppy copper who thinks it's not essential pest control I'm not sure on the consequences...
