it's already mandatory in scotland. wales and northern ireland are still deciding.alth correspondent, sophie hutchinson, reports. millions of us are already choosing to wear face coverings in the uk, both inside and out. they are mandatory on public transport in most places, but now england is set to catch up with scotland and a host of other countries with the new rules to keep people safe in shops. sadly, sales assistants, cashiers, and security guards have suffered disproportionately in this crisis. the death rate of sales and retail assistants is 75% higher amongst men, and 60% higher amongst women, than in the general population. so, as we restore shopping, so we must keep our shopkeepers safe. so, what are the rules for face coverings in england? well, from the 24th ofjuly, all adults and children aged 11 and over must wear face coverings in shops. but there are exemptions for younger children, and people working in shops, and there will be fines of up to £100 for those who fail to comply. but if england is anything like scotland, then there won't be any fines

the new system will apply to people in england only, with scotland, wales and northern ireland setting own approach in the coming days. from tomorrow, the foreign office is changing its travel advice, which has warned against all but essential foreign travel since march. let's get the very latest from andy moore. tomorrow will see major changes to life in england in more ways than one. not only will people be able to go to the pub, they'll also be able to travel to a warm beach overseas, as the government formally lifts its ban on all but essential travel. so, which countries will be open? the first four countries on the list are: germany, france, italy and spain. but it's expected as many as 70, possibly more, will be named later today. some countries, such as portugal and sweden, where infection rates are thought to be too high, may not be on the list. it's good news that the government is removing its blanket quarantine measures, which have caused so much uproar, frankly, in the travel industry over the last few weeks. it's good news that the foreign office will be removing its non—

wales as well. so, this is a snapshot into the afternoon, scattered sharp showers through the northern isles. central and southern parts of scotlandh some heavier bursts across wales and southwest england. maybe the midlands and the southeast of england staying largely dry for much of the day, and if that happens, 21 degrees will be the high. we will see more wet weather feeding in particularly through northern ireland, southern scotland and northern england and it will stay pretty breezy to the south in particular. and because that wind direction again from the southwest, it will drag up some pretty humid air with it, so, despite the cloud, you will notice the feel when you're stepping outside. some of that rain fairly persistent through northern ireland, southern scotland, and in northwest england and wales, and just like last weekend, pretty windy with it and unusually windy for this time of year with gusts in excess of potentially 30 miles an hour. we do manage to get a few breaks in the cloud and there will be very few and then temperatures will likely peak at 22 or 23 degrees. that humidity will start to ease for the second
