The Government’s ‘traffic light’ travel lists have been updated again, with just seven countries set to join the ‘Green List’. But Canada, which is one of these seven countries, currently has a ban on Britons travelling over anyway. BBC News has the story.
Canada and Denmark are among seven countries moving to the Green List in the latest changes to Covid restrictions.
Thailand and Montenegro are being added to the U.K. Government’s ‘Red List’ – meaning they are considered to be among the highest-risk destinations.
Finland, the Azores, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Lithuania are also moving to the Green List.
The changes will come into force at 4am on Monday.
Travellers coming from Green List countries do not have to quarantine when they come back to the U.K. – whether or not they have had two doses of a coronavirus vaccine. They still have to be tested before leaving the U.K. however and upon their return, and fill in a passenger location form.
But while Canada is on the Green List, it currently has a ban on British nationals entering the country.
Only U.K. or Irish nationals, or U.K. residents, are allowed in to the U.K. if they have been to Red List countries. They then have to pay to self-isolate in a Government-approved quarantine hotel. [Good luck to them!] …
Airlines U.K., which represents U.K.-registered carriers, said the “small number of green destinations” was making international travel “more expensive, burdensome and uncertain compared to other countries”. …
Charlie Cornish, Chief Executive of Manchester Airports Group which operates Manchester, London Stansted and East Midlands airports, said the changes to the travel traffic light system will make “little difference” to the recovery of the travel industry and called on the Government to “overhaul” it.

Never mind “overhaul it”, you useless apparatchik! It’s literally stupid and pointless having travel restrictions related to covid. End them. All. Now.
These people just don’t get it, do they? How many times have we seen calls from assorted industry bodies for tweaks and changes to the arbitrary rules? Hardly ever do any of them just ask for all the rules to be ended.
Unfortunately the blinkered Covidian cultist new normals, the proles that are blindly following the dictates simply haven’t twigged the rules around the ‘virus’ are nothing to do with their personal health. Those airlines in public mass transport, the irony is their executives too in fact are colluding with the enemy…and their guaranteeing their own downfall?!?
The BUILD BACK BETTER five eye govts know exactly what the agenda is and are fully on track – ZERO COVID = ZERO CARBON
The plan my fellow skeptikcs is to kill off dirty kerosene burning mass jet travel ASAP.

Think XR shenanigans aren’t being financed by globalists? PMSL
No of these ‘restrictions’ apply to private jet travel which is booming. Those airstrips serving them [Biggin hill/Farnborough will remain fully functional…. That is until the pitchforks come out.
[Just kidding]
Only 15% of Brits are actually awake to what’s going down, that’s not enough to shut this GREAT RESET crap down for good.
Wakey wakey the remaining 85% if it doesn’t happen soon the 99% are collectively fuxd.

Oh and effectively banning some people from travelling to these countries (it used to be about 20 quid one way for some flights, no strings attached) is causing a huge amount of distress and suffering to some of these people and their loved ones. Cruel, unusual, inhumane, criminal.
Whipsawing.
I’d love a trip to the Swiss Alps, but no, only for the jabbed.

When 4 out of every 1,000 travellers who return to the Uk are Covid positive, what is really going on? You are being lied to people. A friend post Covid vaccine developed a heart and lung problem. One ecg, lung ct scan and two chest X-rays and a visit to a pulmonary consultant, she will now be scheduled for a bronchoscopy. It will be very interesting to see if she drinks the Covid booster koolaid coming up.
It’s so simple really. They just don’t want us to travel. This traffic light system is just a lot of bs.
they’ve simply dropped a few hoops…a little less for the intrepid/stupid traveller to jump through…
And planted a few extra mines for future detonation!
The moron(s) who dreamt up these ‘rules’ are clueless about the wider world and the tremendous impact they have on the developing world.
Here in Thailand we have ‘The Sandboxes’. Highly regulated way to get tourists back to some of the islands. It was slowly working and helping to restore a little of the local economy.
I cannot see any Brits coming here now.
I thought that the jabby wabby were supposed to release everyone and allow travel to return?
Oh stupid me, that was nevr the intention was it?
Oz and NZ’s Zero-Covid Humpty Dumpty has well and truly fallen off the wall.
Their leaders know this. Their 18 months of denial of this predictable and predicted reality are over. They are now angrily lashing out, trying to find scapegoats.
What have they done over 18 months to prepare for this inevitability?
What have they done to learn from the errors of Europe and America to ensure residents of residential care facilities will have superior protection?
What have they done to ensure stocks of anti-viral medications?
What have they done other than shift blame and point fingers?
Greetings all
Canada is dead…we are debating on a new name for our once proud and overly friendly country.
My pick is Union of Sanctimonious Socialist Provinces or USSP for short.
Our leader is a budding young Castro and the majority of people are happy to give up their true freedom in exchange for the security and care provided by the State. Vaxx passes are being celebrated and the un-vaxxed…well, you know where that’s all going.
Stay away!
No reason whatsoever for Colombia to remain on the Red List. With a population of 50 million the country is at the bottom of its curve, posting under 2000 new cases yesterday.
All these ever-changing rules remind me of the old Tommy Cooper joke
“Doctor, I broke my arm in three places”
“Don’t go to those places!”
There mught also be some appropriate Milliganisms
Frankly my dear……
Look until they stop these bloody stupid restrictions that are unnecessary, illegal, coercive and just plain wrong who gives a f..k? I can’t travel anyway refusing to take the EGTT and their invasive debunked useless “tests”. JUST STOP PLAYING THEIR GAME!!
