And coming up nearly a year on from it being toppled and dumped in bristol harbour, the statue of the Slave Trader Edward colston Goes On Public Display again. Good Morning And Welcome to Bbc News. The Travel Industry has described the changes to englands Travel List announced yesterday as a devastating blow. The government moved portugal from the Green List of Countries, meaning you dont have to quarantine when you arrive in the uk, to the Amber List. Amber list Countries are those which Uk Tourists should not visit, and if they do, they must isolate for ten days on their return. Seven Countries including Egypt And Trinidad and tobago were added to the Red List, Countriesjudged to be highest risk which the government says you should only visit in extreme circumstances. The Transport Secretary, grant shapps, blamed the changes on rising numbers of infections in portugal and the presence of the so called Nepalese Variant, a mutation of the Delta Variant, which is thought to have originated in india. He said. We simply dont want to take the risk as we come up to 21stjune and the Review Of the fourth stage. Portugal said it didnt understand the logic of the move, and its Tourism Department tweeted that it would Continue to carry out its own unlocking plan with clear rules for the safety of those who live here and those who visit us. Heathrow boss John Holland Kaye is among those criticisng the move, saying it is all but guaranteeing another lost summer for the Travel Sector. The scottish, welsh and Northern Irish governments say they will adopt the same changes. Public Health England says the Nepalese Variant is already present in the uk. Our Business Correspondent Katy austin reports. Since 17th may, trips to portugal have had The Green light, with no quarantine when you get back. But from tuesday, that will change. It isjust going to put people off is just going to put people off travel and that is very damaging for the Travel Industry. Either we believe in the vaccines or we dont. We just literally missed the Cut Off to change we just literally missed the Cut Off to change our flight, we had to do it within to change our flight, we had to do it within two hours, so we cant even it within two hours, so we cant even get it within two hours, so we cant even get money back.

No new Countries were added to the existing Green List yesterday. Portugal left that category and became amber, with the requirement to self isolate at home for ten days upon return. It is not illegal to travel to these places, but the government has told people not to go to them on holiday. Seven more Countries were added to the highest risk Red List, meaning returning Uk Residents must pay to quarantine in an approved hotel. The government said designating portugal as amber was necessary to avoid bringing variants of concern into the uk. The portuguese Foreign Ministry said on twitter.

This morning, the Housing Secretary, robertjenrick, said a cautious approach needed to be taken to protect the Progress The Uk has made fighting the pandemic. First of all, we always said wed dropped a cautious approach. I appreciate its very disappointing and frustrating for people who are in portugal and for those people who work in the industry. But we have made so much progress as a country as a result of our Vaccine Roll out, that we do need to adopt a cautious approach to protect the uk from infection from new variants. With respect to portugal there are two important considerations. Firstly, we saw a very significant rise in positivity in recent Weeks, in fact its doubled in portugal in three Weeks since the last review point, to take it to a much higher level than we see here in the uk. Secondly, perhaps most importantly, although most Countries have although both Countries have prevalence of what is known as the indian variant, Delta Variant, weve also seen a further mutation emerge, become prevalent within portugal, now known as the nepal variant. And we thought it was important to be cautious whilst were still learning more about this new variant. We dont know yet whether its going to be a problem, but our scientists are doing research as we speak. They are looking at whether it is more transmissible and virulent. And above all, whether our current set of vaccines are effective against it. Whilst we do that research, i think most people, i hope most people will appreciate that its right to be careful. Ryainair chief Executive Michael Oleary says he remains confident that Holiday Maker will be able to travel across europe this summer despite portugal being removed from the Green List. Yes, well have to deal with occasional Government Mismanagement such as their removal of portugalfrom the Green List yesterday. Also, the remarkable failure of the british government to add malta and the balearics. In malta, the balearics, they have much lower Covid Case rates than the uk and malta has vaccinated more of its people. So there is equally no reason why they havent been added to the Green List. There will be short term disruptions, but over the main through the End Ofjune, july, august, september we see most of europe going back on holidays and british visitors will be welcome to the beaches of portugal, Spain And Greece on their ryanair flights. Our correspondent James Reynolds is at Gatwick Airport for us this morning. And james, looking at the weather there, it might make many of us Pine Tojet off to there, it might make many of us pine to jet off to sunnier climes, ijust wonder how many flights are due to leave gatwick for Portugal Today . I leave gatwick for Portugal Today . I counted seven so far. Some to madeira, some to pharos, some to porto, where those 16,000 Football Fans went over the weekend to watch the Champions League final. It is as you say unbelievably miserable here this morning, which must, of course, make people want to go and get away and fly. A lot of the people are leaving here for flights to greece and malta, they know already that they have to quarantine when they come back. The people who booked their flights to portugal didnt necessarily know that. I did speak to one group of four men on their way to portugal, i said you might have to quarantine when you get back, they burst out laughing, they said, no, we are coming back on monday night. So, some people are still avoiding that Tuesday Morning deadline. But others who are leaving the misery of the Rain Hearing Gatwick will have to come back and quarantine at home. find Gatwick will have to come back and quarantine at home. Gatwick will have to come back and quarantine at home. And in terms of Eole Quarantine at home. And in terms of people who quarantine at home. And in terms of people who are quarantine at home.

People who are already in portugal and want to get back to beat that deadline, how ready is the airport and airlines to bring them back . Well, if theyve booked their flights already, then clearly they will get on those. Whether or not they are able to get on other flights. We know that 1800 Flights Injune flights. We know that 1800 flights in june have flights. We know that 1800 Flights Injune have been set to leave the uk for portugal, when it was part of that green window. Whether all of those Continue, whether everyone Continues with their bookings, we dont know. But very clearly those people who are in portugal at the moment perhaps having half term, perhaps watching the chaplains like final, will have to get back, if they can, by monday night, or they will have to quarantine. 0ne they can, by monday night, or they will have to quarantine. One should say that some people decide that quarantining is ok, it is the Price Worth paying for a week or two in the sun, and they say, people i have spoken to, that that is something they are prepared to do. find spoken to, that that is something they are prepared to do.

Thank you for having me, i would like to say that having me, i would like to say that i respect the decision but i dont think it is a fair decision. There were no major changes in the portuguese Pandemic Situation in the last few Weeks. We have had a spike in the lisbon area, none in the algarve whatsoever, people wear masks, people obey the rules, we are prepared to receive people, our Vaccination Process is growing steadily, and for us, we were caught by surprise. I have heard today the Housing Secretary stating that the prevalence of the Nepalese Variant, the so called Nepalese Variant, was predominant in portugal. That is not the case. We have had just 12 cases of the Nepalese Variant, and maybe, i dont know for sure, i think the uk has many more cases of the Nepalese Variant than portugal. 50. Nepalese variant than portugal. So, when the Uk Government says that the number of infections has doubled in portugal in the last couple of Weeks, does the despite that you speak of In Lisbon, does that account for that increase in infections . Account for that increase in infections . ,. , �. ,. , infections . Yes. We havent had that Er Da in infections . Yes. We havent had that pEr Day in the infections . Yes.

We havent had that pEr Day in the last 14 days, we pEr Day in the last 14 days, we dont have problems in the hospitals, we have had that spike, and that spike explains that rise, because we had very, very low numbers in the last month. Just in the two past Weeks, the numbers have risen a little bit. But we have 66 cases per 100,000 habitants, we have a Transmission Rate of 1. 07, i think its more or less the same as the uk. So, for us, its disappointing and it is an unfortunate decision. We hope by 21stjune, this will be reviewed, because it was a huge blow for our Tourism Industry. find reviewed, because it was a huge blow for our Tourism Industry. Thi reviewed, because it was a huge blow for our Tourism Industry. For our Tourism Industry. And i want to ask ou for our Tourism Industry. And i want to ask you in for our Tourism Industry. And i want to ask you in a for our Tourism Industry. And i want to ask you in a bit for our Tourism Industry. And i want to ask you in a bit more for our Tourism Industry. And i want to ask you in a bit more detail to ask you in a bit more detail about that in a second, but let me clarify, the 66 cases per 100,000 population, is that in the algarve or is that right across portugal . Right across portugal. In algarve it is much lower. There is no comparison. As i said, the spike In Lisbon explains the amount of new cases that we have been having. 50. Cases that we have been having. So, what are your cases that we have been having. So, what are your fears, cristovao norte, for the Tourism Industry in the area you represent, the algarve . In the past two Weeks we have noticed a very strong recovery. It was a huge boost for us, the decision of giving to portugal The Green light. So, we were witnessing people that never came to portugal coming for the first time, we were witnessing people that didnt come to portugalfor ten, 15 years, coming again. And it was a newmarket, a huge boost for us, and for small and middle enterprises, for small and middle enterprises, forjobs, and so, its very disappointing, because algarve has beenin disappointing, because algarve has been in portugal, in all europe, one of the main regions to be most affected with this pandemic. I affected with this pandemic. I interviewed Portugals Tourism Minister the week before last, she was telling me about the plans that portugal has in place for tourist areas, a Traffic Light system, even for beaches, where if they become too crowded, there is A System in place to deal with that. You say that you respect the decision by the Uk Government, but can you understand it . Understand it . No, i cant understand understand it . No, i cant understand it, understand it . No, i cant understand it, and understand it . No, i cant understand it, and i understand it . No, i cantl understand it, and i stated understand it . No, i cant understand it, and i stated why i cant understand it. I would like to say that we obey the rules, and the only people in the last week that i saw without masks and without social distancing in portugal where the Chelsea And City fans. I know the decision is not about the Champions League and that episode, but i would stress out that our process of vaccination is growing, we havejust a small spike In Lisbon, the nepalese Variant Isjust a small spike In Lisbon, the Nepalese Variant is just 12 cases, nothing more than that, and so we dont understand the decision, its grounds, and im not sure about the reasons why the English Government has decided like that. 50.

Thank you for having me im joined by Dr Deepti gurdasani who is a Senior Lecturer of epidemiology, statistical Genetics And Machine learning at queen mary university. Thank you for your time today. Weve talked on a number of other occasions about variants, so what can you tell us about this so called Nepalese Variant, the World Health Organization says it doesnt recognise it, but public Health England says it does, so, what information are we to rely on . Well, i think its interesting, information are we to rely on . Well, i think its interesting, the i think its interesting, the reporting around this, because it seems to be from what the reports are saying, it is hard to say without seeing the actual detail, that it without seeing the actual detail, thatitis without seeing the actual detail, that it is the Delta Variant or the so called India Variant which has some mutations on top of it which are similarto the some mutations on top of it which are similar to the so called south african variant. And actually, these mutations have already been seen, so this particular variant, if that is what is being described, is already present in the uk. This virus is constantly involving, so, the Delta Variant is constantly developing new variations on top of it and it is no surprise that it will develop mutations if it is allowed to transmit, mutations which may be similar to other variants, and may confer possibly more escape against vaccines or other properties, and thatis vaccines or other properties, and that is why it is critical to contain Transmission And Control imported cases from borders because the situation, although it is not very good now, could get worse, if we let this Continue. 50. Very good now, could get worse, if we let this Continue. Very good now, could get worse, if we let this Continue. So, what data do we have we let this Continue. So, what data do we have to we let this Continue. So, what data do we have to suggest we let this Continue. So, what data do we have to suggest that we let this Continue. So, what data do we have to suggest that this do we have to suggest that this latest variant is actually more infectious, less susceptible to vaccines than the Delta Variant, from which it has mutated . I vaccines than the Delta Variant, from which it has mutated . I dont think we have from which it has mutated . I dont think we have any from which it has mutated . I dont think we have any data from which it has mutated . I dont think we have any data on from which it has mutated . I dont think we have any data on that think we have any data on that yet. So, i think we have to wait and see. As i said, these mutations are even present within the uk, and there are several of these developing. That does not mean they are not concerning, itjust highlights that this is a constantly evolving virus and this is not the last variant that we are going to have to deal with. The current Delta Variant is already more transmissible by maybe 50 70 , it is already more transmissible by maybe 50 70 , it is more severe, 2. 5 times increased risk of hospitalisations, and it has a risk of escaping vaccines. So we really have to have better Border Policies and better containing Transmission Policies to be able to deal with this. ,. ,. ,. ,. , this. The Delta Variant, and any mutations this.

So, i dont think It Isjust about vaccination because what weve seen is that the rise has been rapid amongst School Age children, which now have the highest Infection Rates in england across all Age Groups, and for example in bolton, when cases were rising, the Infection Rates in Secondary School children were three times those of even young adults who were vaccinated. So even if you look at the unvaccinated population, children appear to have. We dont know why this is, whether it is the fact that we dont really have mitigations in schools to prevent this, and the fact that we have actually taken away mitigations rather than introducing them, like other Countries, for example singapore, because of the really concerning spread amongst School Age children. I really concerning spread amongst schoolage children. Really concerning spread amongst schoolage children. I hope you are able to hear schoolage children.

Does he have a point, and if we take what the mp said as factual, then wouldnt people be perfectly safe going to the algarve . Going to the algarve . Absolutely not, i going to the algarve .

Absolutely not, i dont agree with him going to the algarve . Absolutely not, i dont agree with him at. Going to the algarve . Absolutely not, i dont agree with him at all| not, i dont agree with him at all because the best way to stay huddled away is denying and minimising the risk posed by these variants, which have been shown to be very real. Its not hypothetical. The risk of the Delta Variant was hugely minimised by our scientific community and leadership, until we found out that it is far more transmissible, can escape vaccines and is more severe. And now it is heading out into a third wave and possibly another lockdown, and that is the best way to save restrictions, to control our borders and let these variants in with all the devastating impacts, and no, i dont agree with that, because its very clear that our Border Policy is not based on any sort of evidence. The green, amber, Red List, they are all ridiculous. Sage advised in january, and i am quoting from their report, that other than a complete pre emptive closure of borders and mandate recurrent to all visitors, in special facilities, we would inevitably import new variants of concern. This was completely ignored by government and the situation that we are in now was not inevitable, it was completely avoidable but our government did nothing to avoid it and we are making the same estates again and not only importing variants, when we had the so called Kent Variant we exported it across the globe leading to what was a third wave in europe and now we have a variant that potentially escapes vaccines to some extent and is highly transmissible and we are happy to send people on holidays to export them to other Countries that dont have the same level of access to vaccines. To me that is completely unethical. Brute to vaccines. To me that is completely unethical. We have to leave it there, completely unethical. We have to leave it there, dr completely unethical.

Big crowds will be allowed back at organised outdoor events in wales from monday, as part of a further easing of coronavirus restrictions. The maximum capacity will be 4000 if spectators are standing, the maximum capacity will be 4,000 if spectators are standing, or 10,000 if theyre seated. Groups of up to 30 will be allowed to meet outdoors, including in private gardens. However, the welsh government said there was growing concern about the spread of the Delta Variant. First Minister Mark Drakeford says hes taking a cautious approach to opening up. Our Wales Correspondent Tomos Morgan is in cardiff. With wales leading Vaccination Rates in the uk and worldwide when it comes to first dose of vaccinations, the first Minister Today in his three weekly review will be easing some Mixing Restrictions in wales. So, from monday, up to 30 people can meet outside in private gardens or in outdoor hospitality settings. And then as well from monday, for the first time since the pandemic began, crowds of up to 4,000 standing and 10,000 seated can go and watch outdoor events such as sporting events, concerts and can also partake in park runs. However, social distancing, two metres will need to be enforced in both those environments. There are less than 100 cases of the Delta Variant in wales at the moment. However, the first minister and the welsh government were concerned about the potential influx of cases from Hotspots Area in the north of england. Weve always taken in wales, a careful, cautious step by step approach. Lifting restrictions when we think its safe to do so, but not putting at Risk Everything that weve managed to achieve together over the last four or five months. We are in a good position in wales today, our rates are the lowest in the united kingdom, our Vaccination Rates are the highest in the world. But just across our border, the new Delta Variant is spreading very quickly. We know it is more transmissible, there are signs that it may create more people needing Hospital Treatment as a result, we will wait to see further evidence. Provided things are good, we will move ahead but we are not going to take risks that would mean that the very good position we are in today could be rapidly undermined. The other announcement the first minister has made today is that from 21stjune, the rule of six will come into play in wales indoors, something thats already in force in england and there will also be an easing on indoor activities and events. I think what is clear from todays announcement, something we already knew here in wales, some think here in wales, something the first minister has always said really that 21stjune will not be a day in wales that all restrictions will finish, as is planned in england. That was never going to be the case in wales. It is a phased move down to Alert Level1 over the next couple of Weeks up until the 21st and the likelihood is, with all the uncertainty still around the delta, that indian variant, is that wales will be in this Alert Level 1 for quite some time, until they get all the details and more people are vaccinated. A leading pro Democracy Activist in Hong Kong, Chow Hang tung, has been arrested, on the 32nd anniversary of the tiananmen square massacre. And police have closed off large parts of Hong Kongs Victoria Park in an attempt to stop the annual vigil which commemorates the thousands killed in a crackdown by the chinese government on student led protests against the regime in 1989. The Hong Kong government has banned the vigil for a second year in a row, citing coronavirus concerns. Ms chow has called on people to mark the anniversary in their own ways. Lets get more now from our correspondent Danny Vincent in Hong Kong. Danny, hello to you. So, on what grounds do the authorities there say Ms Chow has been arrested . Weill. Ms chow has been arrested . Well, they havent Ms Chow has been arrested . Well, they havent been Ms Chow has been arrested . Well, they havent been very Ms Chow has been arrested . Well, they havent been very clear Ms Chow has been arrested . In they havent been very clear about exactly what she said, but the authorities, the police, say that Ms Chow and also another individual, a 20 year old Hong Kong resident, are suspected of publicising and encouraging people to take part in a band event, those are the exact words that the police used, i think we can guess that the event they are speaking about is of course the vigil, which is also banned here because of allegedly coronavirus restrictions. What i can say is that here in Hong Kong, Tens Of Thousands of people for the last three decades have packed Victoria Park to almost the brim in their efforts to commemorate the victims of this bloody crackdown that happened 32 years ago. Last year, there was also a ban but thousands of people still took the risk and they went to the park again and they tried to commemorate those victims, they commemorated the dead. Many of the organisers last year were arrested, they are now detained, they are now in prison. Today, weve seen another organiser being detained and arrested, so i think for many Hong Kongers, they see this as a clear message, the arrest came in the early hours of the morning, so they may see this as a message that the authorities are very serious about this ban, and they trying to deter people from coming out onto The Streets and trying to mark the anniversary of this event. Danny vincent, Thank Anniversary of this event. Danny vincent, thank you anniversary of this event. Danny vincent, thank you very anniversary of this event. Danny vincent, thank you very much, i anniversary of this event. Danny| vincent, thank you very much, in Hong Kong.

Thank you forjoining us on Bbc News. Getting vaccines to lower income Countries, That Has got to be top of the agenda, hasnt it . He would top of the agenda, hasnt it . He would have thought so, given what we have heard about new variants coming from india and nepal. It is about making the world save quickly and fairly. It is a danger the leaders will be looking more to the next pandemic as opposed to sorting this one out. But this ought to be the priority to vaccinate the world quickly.

There are Countries with very focusing on . Yes, i think so. There are Countries with very good are Countries with very good Vaccination Rates and we are talking about going on holidays and coming out of this crisis as if it has all been sorted. But the billions of people around the world, they are still in the grips of the pandemic. It is really dreadful that we are stockpiling so many vaccines at the moment and not sharing them with the rest of the world. On thursday, the Secretary Of State said we brits love queueing. There is nothing more upsetting than someone jumping the queue. That doesnt look to be the case that we love queueing, we should be sharing our vaccine with other Countries. The should be sharing our vaccine with other Countries. Should be sharing our vaccine with other Countries. The messaging from another of organisations other Countries. The messaging from another of organisations to other Countries. The messaging from another of organisations to the other Countries. The messaging from another of organisations to the g7 i another of organisations to the g7 has been focused on an appeal to their self interest, saying, if you want to get back on track with your economies and everything else, you need to make sure that lower income Countries are vaccinated as well otherwise your plans will go awry.

From a health perspective, an economic perspective and a political perspective, but an ethical one as well, it is obvious we should be doing this. There is an amazing inconsistency from the world bank, the imf, World Health Organization and other world leaders that this is what the g7 should be doing. If they are going to go down in history as great g7 leaders, it is almost a case they should prioritise this and nothing else.

A statue of the Slave Trader Edward colston, toppled during an anti Racism Protest in bristol, will go on public display. It is in a Museum Close to where it was thrown into the citys harbour. The statue is covered in graffiti and damaged from being dragged along The Street, and is displayed alongside placards from the protest. We thought it was looking pretty wet and miserable at gatwick. Now its time for a look at the weather with nick miller. Temperatures may not be as high as they were in the week but it will still warm and you will see some sunshine today. That is across most parts of the uk. The cloud at times, north of scotland, the odd spot of rain or a few showers around. More cloud across Eastern Parts of england with areas of rain moving northwards, maybe if you heavy and thundery burst around, particularly the further east you are. The odd late Day Shower cannot be ruled out in south West England. Overnight, outbreaks of rain in eastern most counties of england. You may catch a show in Northern Ireland and north of scotland where it is clear temperatures towards mid single figures. Brightening up in Eastern England slowly tomorrow. Chances of showers in northern scotland, Heavy Mab Thundery Run into the afternoon and running into the far west of wales and south West England. Elsewhere, pleasant, Sunny Spells. Time for the sport, with heres jane dougall. Good morning. Just one week to go until the start of euro 2020, and theres a blow for England Fans. Defender Trent Alexander Arnold has been ruled out of the tournament. A scan has revealed that the injury he picked up in the friendly win over austria on Wednesday Night was a quad muscle tear. Hes expected to be sidelined for around six Weeks. Alexander arnold was one of four right backs included in gareth southgates squad. A Replacement Wont be confirmed until after sunday s Warm Up Match against romania. His Liverpool And England Team Matejordan Henderson tweeted his sympathy. He wrote gutted for Trent Alexander Arnold but hell be back. Lots of tournaments ahead of him. Northern ireland were beaten 1 0 by ukraine in a friendly last night. Having seen off malta on sunday, Ian Baracloughs Side Couldnt Build on that win, with Oleksandr Zubkov Scoring after only 10 minutes for the hosts, who are preparing for the euros. The Republic Of Ireland recovered from a goal down to beat andorra 4 1 in another friendly. Its manager Stephen Kennys first victory after 12 games in charge. England Resume Day three against New Zealand later this morning, trailing by 267 runs at lords. The Tourists Total of 378 includes 200 from devon conway, who became only the seventh man to make a double century on his test debut. In reply, england wobbled, but Skipperjoe Root and Rory Burns the latter with a half century have led the fightback. England will resume on 111 for 2. Im really pleased the way we fought back. 130 7, something like that today, from our bowling attack, was fantastic. Got us back into the game which was really important because New Zealand could put a really big score on that first innings and then it would have been tough. As it is, it was still a good score, i think, on that pitch. And having lost the early wickets, we were under pressure so a really good partnership from Rory Burns and Joe Root there. In golf, englands Mel Reid shares the Opening Lead at the us womens open in San Francisco after a four under par score on the opening day. Reids looking for her first major win and she shares the lead with a 17 year old american high schooljunior, megha ganne. She became the first amateur in 15 years to have a share of the lead after any round at the us womens open. Ganne made back to back birdies on the back nine to join reid on four under par. Britains Cameron Norrie will play the reigning Champion Rafa Nadal in the third round of the French Open after coming from behind to beat Lloyd Harris of south africa. Norrie lost the first set, but fought back to take the following three to reach the next stage. Norrie is in great form having reached two finals in may and has now 25 wins under his belt this year. World number two Rafa Nadal cruised into the third round earlier with a straight sets win over richard gasquet. The perfect way for nadal to celebrate his 35th birthday. Theres uncertainty over whether Naomi Osaka will play at wimbledon. She withdrew from the French Open on monday saying she needed to protect her Mental Health, shes now pulled out of a tournament coming up in berlin. Many other athletes have spoken about her decision not to speak to the media. Formula one champion lewis hamilton, whos getting ready for this weekends azerbaijan Grand Prix believes Osaka Hasnt been treated fairly. She is incredibly brave and i applaud herfor her bravery, because i think it is now asking those in power and making them have to think about how they react. Because i think the way they reacted was not good with the fine. Someone talking about their personal, Mental Health and then be fined for it, that wasnt cool.

Now on the Bbc News channel it is your questions answered. Following yesterday s Travel Announcement we ve been asking you for your questions about how the update will affect you. To help answer your questions im joined by Sally Gethin, travel and Aviation Expert, and rory boland, the Travel Editor at � which . Very good morning to you both. Rory, this is a very popular topic for the questions today, we have one from joanne he says, does the change in Portugals Status from next week include madeira .

Tte simple answer is yes, madeira separate are the main line . Tte simple answer is yes, madeira and the azores, another popular Holiday Destination is on the Amber List along with portugal. I know there has been a lot of speculation with the government potentially separating Countries out into regions, particularly ireland. It has talked about the canaries, the balearics, some of the greek islands. The reason is, the Infection Rate, the Vaccination Rates, they can be drastically different. Not dissimilar in this country where the Infection Rate in some Scottish Islands is very, very low, not the same as london or the northwest. But if the country goes from green to amber, whatever level it is, that is the whole country and that includes all of its territories. Unfortunately madeira and the azores, if you have a holiday booked in those locations, they have both moved to the embolus from next tuesday. From next tuesday. Briefly, is it our from next tuesday.

We were talking about it last summer as well, the Travel Corridors, as they were called back then which were effectively Traffic Light. I think it is the governments intention, but i imagine there is some complexity around it, in getting the right data at the right level in some of those islands.

To Countries on Red List, people are allowed to travel . Allowed to travel . To the first thin , allowed to travel . To the first thing. There allowed to travel . To the first thing, there are allowed to travel . To the first thing, there are very allowed to travel . To the first thing, there are very few i allowed to travel . To the first i thing, there are very few people travelling to Red List Countries and back from Red List Countries. So even your most dreamy scotland or wales, even England Fan who believes they are going to win the European Championships, a bill of £1750 for Hotel Quarantine when you come back to the uk, that is going to put most people. People travelling from Red List Countries are either the very, very wealthy, who can afford the cost, but people are in dire need to come back to the uk or to go and see family abroad. I agree with amber, it is confusing, the government has set up a Traffic Light system to facilitate travel, comedy tells the rules, but then immediately turn round and say, we dont really want you to use this system for amber and red. I suppose what the government would say about amber is, it doesnt want you to travel, but it does recognise that there are reasons people do need to travel beyond holidays, beyond leisure and beyond the European Championships. There are millions of people in this country who have family abroad. They will have varying, desperate reasons to go and see that family after a long period when travel was completely banned. It is confusing at the Governments Position is there are some nuance around amber and there are reasons why you may need to travel. It doesnt want you to do that for holidays or to go to the european championship. Craig, i hoe the european championship. Craig, I Ho E that the european championship. Craig, i hope that answers the european championship. Craig, i hope that answers your the european championship. Craig, i hope that answers your question. I hope that answers your question.

Ttee Isnt Anything legally preventing you from travelling, even for a holiday and that is a purposeful government decision. If it had wanted to make it more difficult for people to go to Amber List Countries, then it could have used foreign Commonwealth Development Office advice. For many Amber List Countries, there is a warning about travelling and that does lead to holidays being cancelled and sometimes flights.

If a warning is put on a destination, your Tour Operator will cancel. We have a situation with portugal, where there isnt a warning. The government doesnt want you to go but Tour Operators are not obliged to cancel and refund you. It puts people in a difficult position because they cannot claim a refund, they would like to follow Government Advice in most cases and not go. Your choice is to rebook. That is often more expensive. We now have a backlog from 2020, a backlog from 2021 of everybody trying to cram in dates, which drives up the price. If you cannot afford the extra outlay, and that could be several hundred pounds, you are at risk of losing the holiday.

I know it seems like the End Ofjune isnt i seems like the End Ofjune isnt that far away, but in travel terms there is a little bit of time, maybe another week to see what happens with the maldives. The likelihood is, yourflight with the maldives. The likelihood is, your flight will be cancelled. They will not all be cancelled and if it is cancelled you will be due a refund within seven days, those are the rules. Most airlines are meeting there. If it isnt, you are in a tricky situation, this is the difference between booking a Package Holiday and just a flight. You have greater protections with a Package Holiday. If a flight is not cancelled then all you have to rely on is the flexible Booking Policy of the airline. That means you will be able to rebook for anothEr Day, but the same warning applies, the new dates may be more expensive. About half of the airlines will allow you to take the booking as credit, so essentially you say you cannot go, you can move the credit into a Bank Account with the airline and use it for a latEr Date. Unfortunately for now, just wait and see if the flight is cancelled. With the warning, which is in place against the maldives and it is on the Red List so making direct flights difficult, imagine yourflight will so making direct flights difficult, imagine your flight will be cancelled, but you will have to wait a little bit longer to see what happens.

It is an interesting question. Rory, from amanda, can you advise if turkey is on the Red List after Yesterdays Announcement . Trio after Yesterdays Announcement . Th . Changes to turkey at the moment. There is Fcdo Warning for turkey so most holidays will be cancel to that destination. That is a heartache for people, particularly families who want to go on holiday, turkey is incredibly cheap. You could be getting a 5 Star Hotel for 400, £500 for a week. You are unlikely to get even a field in the uk at that price. Turkey has seen a great deal of speculation suggesting it may move into the Green List. One of the problems the government is dealing with, and cannot say explicitly, is the reliability of the data from turkey.
