Awake in the middle of the night again with hundreds of thoughts going through my head. Why are we not banning flights from coming into the UK or at the very least making people go into quarantine fro 14 days on arrival. We need to shut down our borders.
Frightens me, that a quick check of airports arrivals boards showing flights coming in from known hotspots.

I’m awake scaring myself with some threads too ! I’m thinking the same thing , I just don’t understand why any flights are allowed at the moment 🤷🏻♀️

Because people need to get home and in for essential travel? People from hotspots are having to self isolate upon landing and the rest are being sensible. You would strand thousands of people abroad if you didn’t fly them home. The planes are flying only a third full, if that

I flew home from london (hotspot), with my eldest from boarding school, this week to a country with low recorded cases. Am in self isolation for 14 days, with threat of arrest if caught out and about.
If i hadn't have come back my younger children and i would have been separated for potentially months.
