Green list update LIVE – Portugal to be REMOVED from travel list in huge holiday blow as Spain and Greece left off too
BORIS Johnson warned the Government will have “no hesitation” over moving countries off the green list if necessary.
The PM said he will “wait and see” what the recommendations of the Joint Biosecurity Centre are before announcing changes to the UK’s travel lists.
The UK government will announce more changes to the travel green list today – with fears Portugal could be taken off the list.
Initially, it was hoped that holiday hotspots including the Spanish and Greek islands could be added to the quarantine-free travel list this week, opening up more destinations by June 7.
However, it is now feared that few if any countries will be added to the list as part of the announcement planned for later today, and some such as Portugal could even be taken off.
