Petition Action

Arrange repatriation flights for all UK Citizens stuck abroad due to Covid ASAP

Petition Details

Thousands of UK Citizens are stuck abroad, as countries implemented a strict shut down of their airspace post Covid. The Foreign office needs to make immediate arrangements to fly out our citizens. Other European governments ie. Germany are doing just that right now. Why are we always last to act?

Additional Information

Many of these citizens are suffering financial hardship further compounded by purchasing last minute tickets only for these to be cancelled as well. We have also heard stories of citizens still with no accomodation.
Areas of immediate concern are.
South Africa.
India
