Sarah added that the last minute ban on air travel has caused a wave of panic amongst the Irish community in Britain, many of whom were due to fly home this week.
“I think it has caused more harm than protecting people. People have flocked to the airports and train stations as soon as the announcement was made Saturday night,” she said. We never heard of this apparent mutation until Saturday night when the restrictions were put into place. I ve abided by every law and rule to protect others in a hope I will see my family for Christmas and I cannot describe the distraught it has brought us not being reunited.”
