Amid much pressure from travel industry leaders, the Government has added a handful of countries to its quarantine-free “Green List”. However, all but one of these countries have also been added to the “Green Watchlist”, meaning they are “at risk” of being pushed back onto the “Amber List”, making it difficult for Brits to confidently book holidays abroad. Sky News has more.
Spain’s Balearic Islands, Malta, Madeira, and some islands in the Caribbean – including Barbados – have been added to England’s travel Green List, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps has announced.
The Balearic Islands are made up of Ibiza, Menorca, Majorca and Formentera.
The move means those heading to some popular holiday hotspots will not have to quarantine on their return following the latest review of the travel traffic light system.
However, all of the new additions to the quarantine-free travel list, with the exception of Malta, will also be added to the Government’s Green Watchlist, the Department for Transport said.
The “Watchlist” will also include Jerusalem and Israel.
It means these countries “are at risk of moving from Green to Amber”, the Department said, noting that “passengers are urged to take extra care when thinking about travelling to Green Watchlist countries”.
The changes come into effect at 4am on Wednesday, June 30th.
Six countries, including Tunisia and Haiti, have been added to the Government’s “Red List”. People returning to Britain from these countries must quarantine for 10 days in a Government-approved hotel – and pay £1,750 for the privilege. Meanwhile, Scotland has added 16 countries to its own Green List, with seven having been added to Northern Ireland’s.

She performs like she is a stand up comedian that everyone should find funny because she is laughing more than a pack of hyena’s.
Full disclosure: I don’t really like Trump.
But I hope he will win because I absolutely, unreservedly and totally loath Kamala Harris.
Assuming that he wins, and that is quite an assumption with the cheating going on, Don really has to take it all the way this time. This cannot be another remix of what we have already, but a complete ‘smash it up and clear it away to the bin’ job in the style of Javier Milei. We, as in the nations of the West, cannot stand another Democratic (sic) government feeding the creeping communism of a World Government. I pray they find enough people to protect him while he does his work.
Indeed.
One thing is for sure: the election campaign was not a level playing field.
The absolute majority of the mainstream media worships Kamala, puts her in the best possible light, covers up for her inadequacy and track record of failure, with celebrities lining up to endorse her, sing praises of her.
Exactly like they treated the incoherent, senile Joe Biden.
With Trump, it’s the opposite.
If he got elected, it would be the same.
So, best of luck to him. Even though I don’t really like him, credit to him for putting up a good fight.
Massive fraud everywhere. 2 Dbs of ‘voters’ in many states – 2nd controlled by the deep state one would assume, completely cryptographically controlled. Plus the usual more registered voters than adults, fake ballots, 10 ballots to a 1 bedroom apartment, illegals, one signature on thousands of ballots etc. etc.
The transgender and alphabet people nonsense doesn’t play well with Black and Latinos as well as “church-people”’.
They are the target of the ads.
I would vote for Trump. He is the one that is not trying to end free speech. No other reason needed.
If this writhing loathsome sock puppet wins it’ll be because of the biggest election fraud outside of Africa.. anyone seen what going on with the so-called voting machines..?
