BRITONS NEVER EVER SHALL BE SLAVES
By Grant Shapps, Secretary of State for Transport
For two long years Britons travelling abroad have had to contend with a host of restrictions and test requirements resulting in lost time and money.
Families have been separated, holidays scuppered, business meetings cancelled, and airlines, airports and tour operators starved of revenue.
So, it gave me enormous satisfaction to announce to the House of Commons on Monday that we are scrapping all tests for inbound vaccinated passengers and reducing test requirements for the unvaccinated, while at the same time removing the self-isolation requirement for the latter.
The Prime Minister and I have always believed that Covid restrictions on travel should last not a minute longer than is necessary.
A Conservative government must maintain personal freedom as its core value – we should never become addicted to bureaucratic restraints on free movement and free trade. And now, we can remove the last shackles to international travel.
We can set Britons free.
