Doesn't sound a wise idea, the plan is to reduce the spread until the NHS can cope , no exception!

If your daughter lives with you and the plan is for her boyfriend to move to yours for the duration of the outbreak then under government guidance she could go and collect him. That said there are risks with a long journey and also London has a high rate of CV19.

Ask him to use the train to you.

Much safer to pick him up than have him using public transport.

He's been working from home and self isolating so hasn't been mixing woth people who could have the virus. He's coming up to yours to live while the self distancing lockdown continues. Then I see no problem you going down to pick him up. If I was in the same situation I'd do the same.

Ingnore the judgement zealous people who say you can't and that he must stay on his own miles away from his young family.

The OP hasn't answered the question "Have have you, and everyone in your household, been in isolation?". If the answer is no, then it's the son-in-law who's putting himself at risk.

I think the OP may never return to reply to their SPAM question.

Ingnore the sensible considerate people who say anyone with any sense wouldnt and shouldn't for the good of the country as a whole and those brave frontline NHS staff that risk their own lives and the lives of those they hold dearest, as well as keeping the UK economy protected by not prolonging this global pandemic.

Yes, quite.
