It comes as Ministers outlined plans to allow some island destinations to have different quarantine rules from the mainland. Holiday plans for some Brits were thrown into chaos and confusion last week when Scotland and Wales imposed quarantine rules on Greece and Portugal, but not England. Grant Shapps told MPs the data showing infections within countries is "too patchy" to have regional quarantine arrangements at the moment. Now, quarantine rules will be imposed on people returning from the islands of Lesvos, Tinos, Serifos, Mykonos, Crete, Santorini and Zakynthos. "The islands policy itself becomes actively immediately and I will, of course, update the House on quarantine testing in the coming weeks."
