The government’s policy of asking British Citizens and residents to stay in isolation for 10 days when they have been doubly vaccinated and have shown a negative PCR result is a stupid policy. I saw hundreds of innocent residents crying at Nigerian airports. @BorisJohnson and the
health Secretary should review the policy quickly. I am a Solicitor who works with many UK-residents on immigration matters, many of them cannot save up £2000 in 3 years. It is that bad. To ask them to pay that much unexpectedly rather than ask them to quarantine at home is
simply inhumane. I was on a BA flight from Lagos and a plane that was supposed to take 318 people took just 23 people. Many who wanted to pay for hotels cannot get bookings as directed. Young children are stranded. It was a gory sight to behold. The protection of the
community is necessary but not by punishing innocent residents. If it was a ploy to squeeze money from the people of South Africa and Nigeria, it was a stupid ploy as huge damage is being done to the economy of the UK. It was a typical political reaction so that the
government can be seen as doing something. I was moved to tears as I spoke to a few of them. Some used credit cards to buy tickets to travel to Nigeria and they cannot return. Policies must have human eyes and this is another governmental mismanagement.
