UK Covid live: travel industry criticises Portugal green list removal; half of all adults fully vaccinatedTravel industry chiefs disappointed at latest travel list update; Boris Johnson welcomes news that 26,422,303 second doses have now been given Hancock shouldn't even be in a job! Absolutely disgraceful. Caught out lie after lie, making money from NHS contracts for his sister's company (which he has a 25% stake in). He must have some incredible dirt on Boris to still be Health Secretary. Funny fact: Algarve had around 15 cases per day max until we started receiving tourists. Last 2 days have around 35 per day. Madness. Only place safer than this is mars. Enjoy your holidays. And if they stayed on the green list the guardian would be sporting how experts criticise it. The government are wrong no matter what, the press make sure of it.

Portugal removed from ‘green list’ of Covid travel destinationsNo countries added to England’s quarantine-free list, a decision likely to dismay travel industry and holidaymakers How is it justified that Hong Kong, with no local case of COVID in over 5 weeks AND now offering a Pfizer vaccine to everyone over the age of 12, is not on the Green List? A sizeable British community here desperate to to see families. Inconsistent and disgraceful. Good buy Mississippi Mafiosi!
