Chair of the APPG @LaylaMoran explained why we are urging the government to discourage all non-essential foreign holidays this summer.
“I’d love to be on a beach - but it's just not safe for Brits to go on holiday yet”

"We wouldn't want to have for the sake of one summer holiday us go backwards and have a further wave and a further lockdown." - @LaylaMoran

In the report we call on the travel ban to be reviewed every three months.
A surge in summer holidays would increase pressure on already struggling airports, risking further spread of the virus and the importation of new variants from overseas.
