Rejected petition Stop UK Airports, Seaports & Channel Tunnel from receiving passengers.
We have to work together to stop spreading Covid-19. While hand washing, social distancing & face coverings are effective, Covid-19 is still spreading. We must close down passenger flights, passenger sailings & passenger services on the Channel Tunnel to prevent spreading new Covid-19 variants.
More details
Slow the spread by closing down all passenger flights, passenger sailings and passenger services on the Channel Tunnel, to stop potentially infected visitors entering the UK.
Enforce a 14 day mandatory quarantine, paid for by any freight visitors themselves, should they need to access the UK.
Test and turn away any freight flights, sailings or Channel Tunnel entries, if any of the freight staff display symptoms or test positive.
