Hi all,

Looks like some positive news for those of us, resident in Spain and double-vaccinated here, to be able to travel to the UK without restrictions from 1st August:

Kind regards,

What GP? What makes them think British ex pats who are permanent residents of Spain still have a GP in the UK?

Typical Little Britain thinking from Boris and his incompetents.

Sorry, Steve, it came through on my Newsfeed, but I didn't realise it was behind a payroll.  I'll see if I can find another source.

Kind regards,

I've already written to my MP on that point, HJ.  I await his answer with baited breath - not least, because my MP is Michael Gove!  😉😄

Kind regards,

What planet are they living on?

Planet xenophobia I suspect.

They seem to think the NHS is the only reputable health service in the world. A post colonial view.

Certainly it's world beating if you're in a queue for an op.

Shambles.
