Closed Remove quarantine exemptions for diplomats and international organisations

Closed on

Members of diplomatic missions and consular posts in the UK, and officers, servants or representatives of international organisations should be required to self-isolate or quarantine like everyone else, especially after returning from red list countries.

Returning diplomats and staff of international organisations are exempt from the quarantine requirements when they return to the UK. However, they aren’t exempt from catching SARS-CoV-2 and bringing back new variants. It’s inequitable and an injustice and could contribute to a third wave in the UK.
