You’ve vowed to help firms in UK regions forced into lockdown @rishisunak. The travel industry has effectively been locked down since March – where is the dedicated support for this industry? 90k jobs are at risk/already been lost! #SaveTravel #SaveFutureTravel #Test4Travel

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

@dollyjoyner According to FCO Spain advise they now accept our proof of recovery - have a read of that, highly unlikely you will still test positive on a PCR - you can’t use NHS PCR you need to buy one from Randox or another travel test supplier

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

The Travel industry has been forgotten by the Government. Travel restrictions have decimated our businesses. 200,000 jobs already lost in travel & thousands to follow without urgent support. @rishisunak @grantshapps @ABTAMembers #savetravel #savefuturetravel

Another week has passed without any action from @RishiSunak to save the Travel Industry.
The Travel Industry needs Sector Specific Support or 100,000 more jobs will be lost this Autumn.
We need action NOW @BorisJohnson @grantshapps @Target40629875 #savetraveljobs

@grantshapps Let’s hope the USA repay the favour!

Today is National Travel Agent Day.
Travel Agents have worked tirelessly to support their customers throughout the Covid 19 lockdown without any income
As travel slowly restarts the travel industry needs financial support to see us through until more people can travel @RishiSunak

Our world class cities are losing out on £28.4bn spending from overseas visitors – inbound travel for business and holidays is a huge contributor to the UK economy. Govt needs to allow the safe return of travel this summer #speakupfortravel

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

I am passionate about working in the travel industry and today I want to #speakupfortravel and show my support. #traveldayofaction

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

Travel plays a vital role in everyone’s lives – bringing families and friends together, connecting businesses and offering hardworking people a well-deserved break. @Grantshapps Govt needs to allow international travel to return safely this summer #speakupfortravel

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

In normal times the outbound travel sector generates £bns of spending in the UK and employs 100s of thousands of people but has been the hardest hit by the pandemic. #speakupfortravel as jobs, businesses and livelihoods are at risk. #traveldayofaction

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

Livelihoods are on the line - we need @RishiSunak to bring forward a package of tailored financial support including extending furlough to help protect jobs and businesses in the travel industry. #traveldayofaction #speakupfortravel

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

.@Grantshapps Govt needs to allow travel to safely return this summer by properly implementing the #trafficlight system, expanding the #greenlist & capitalising on the vaccine rollout. Other European countries have opened, and the UK is falling behind #speakupfortravel

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

The travel industry is calling on the Govt to implement the #trafficlight system as intended so travel can resume properly this summer and offer a package of tailored financial support to help businesses through the crisis. #traveldayofaction #speakupfortravel

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

Let’s build on the great progress of the vaccination rollout and safely open up travel this summer @borisjohnson. Jobs and livelihoods depend on it. People are desperate to see friends/family overseas, make business connections & have a break #speakupfortravel #traveldayofaction

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

Hundreds of thousands of jobs lost and zero income for 18 months. The travel industry has been the worst affected sector by the pandemic. The necessary tailored financial support from government is long overdue. #speakupfortravel #traveldayofaction

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

Today my friends & colleagues from the travel industry will be in London to support the “Travel Day of Action”. Travel agents, tour operators, airlines and airports united

No holidays to sell. No income. Loans to repay. Furlough ending. Travel needs Sector Specific Support. @afneil please challenge @RishiSunak on @GBNEWS @TARGET40629875 #TargetTravelAgents

@BorisJohnson Vote of no confidence in @grantshapps : you have failed to support the travel industry - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/wSqkHgcUMA via @UKChange

[Samantha Briggs @samibriggs]

Enough is enough @grantshapps @borisjohnson. You have effectively shut down the UK travel industry for the second year in succession. Travel is not just about holidays, it’s about 1000s of jobs. We are asking you to step up, provide dedicated financial support – and #SaveTravel
