Amber and what it means ?

<< < (6/9) > >>

BAJ:
Karen, I think the government are confused too. They should just be clear and have a consistent message. Ministers can’t agree themselves what it means. They need some input about how to deliver clear communication! The problem has arisen and the reason tour operators and airlines are  flying there is because FCDO state you can travel to some of the islands, including Corfu, which has always been the criteria used. But the amber COVID rules for entering the uk from these countries and islands are advising you ‘shouldn’t’ travel for leisure.
They need to sort it one way or the other.

Karen:
They definitely need to be clearer BAJ. It's not illegal so people will make a personal choice whether to travel or not. There will be those who can't isolate, on their return, so let's hope it turns green on June 7th..although I doubt it will...hopefully things will become more clear.

Lesley:
Listening to BBC 2 this afternoon, the Travel Minister said  - It was dangerous to travel?  Did he mean anywhere of just Internationally?  Again not clear or concise,  travel is travel so is it now dangerous to get on a train, bus etc after all his title is Travel?

hobbes:
Apparently now BoJo has announced in Parliament that if you travel anywhere on the Amber list you can be open to a £10,000 fine...No idea what he is talking about, think he has finally lost the plot! So what do you get for travelling somewhere on the red list? Lethal injection, stoning?

Confusing again..but I guess it's international and pm said we should only travel to amber list countries, in the most extreme circumstances, ie, family or business..
