Almost at 90k signatures, the petition needs 100k for a chance of a debate in Parliament - please sign if travel to you means seeing your family, not an all inclusive holiday. #Summer2021 #LoveIsNotTourism

[John Crowley @mrjohncrowley]

Restrictions on going abroad shouldn’t be just seen through the prism of ‘saving’ our foreign holidays. The millions who also can’t leave the UK to visit their loved ones have seemingly been forgotten by the media. Much needed reframing of the debate by @iroughol

Brilliant article: we are a transnational family: haven't seen children / parents / grandparents for a year; husband missed his dad's last days and funeral. Travel is not only about holidays: ask the SA families locked up at Heathrow. #LoveIsNotTourism https://t.co/OPf84QivgC

A petition on the UK parliament website asks the government to class in-person interaction with family members and unmarried partners abroad as an essential reason to travel. https://t.co/XNtP1KrBbi

I haven't seen my family since Feb 2020. My parents have lost over one year in the lives of their grandchildren. There need to be an exception for those who have family abroad and can't just meet up for a BBQ in their gardens in a couple of weeks time. https://t.co/LNkscJeJV7

If you're a British national or UK resident I'd appreciate it if you could spare a moment and sign this petition to class travel to/from family and unmarried partners as justified. Thanks! 🙏
International travel is NOT just holidays.

Over 20,000 people are currently hospitalised with Covid-19 in Poland, the highest number since early December.

The third wave is very much on.

EU launches legal proceedings against UK for unilateral decision to extend #Brexit grace periods. Ppl were warning abt risk of unilateral action back in 2019. Why? Partly because UK and EU understand role of Joint Committee differently. Short thread

Sadly it happened again: A poor woman lost her eye after being shot by police rubber bullets during #freespeech #PabloHasel demonstration in Barcelona yesterday - even though @EUCouncil urges a stop to these arms and they are explicitly forbidden in Catalonia!
