Ensure people who arrive in UK are quarantined & tested. Like other countries!
Put people in quarantine on arrival to the UK, to ensure not carrying Covid and spreading all over the UK, putting people at risk and threatening 2nd and 3rd peaks of the virus.
It is crazy how we all stay home, do the right things, whilst 100,000 plus people enter the UK each week with no checks.
To protect the NHS and save lives. And also protect the economy. The sooner we lock down and lock down properly, the sooner we get back to business and save the economy and lives.
Taiwan are an Island, they put people on 2 week quarantine on arrival. They check people temps during that lock down and track them on their phone. They control their borders and it is no coincidence that they have had only 428 cases and 6 deaths, because they acted swiftly and properly. We have not and it is ridiculous!
