Closed Close borders to all travellers from countries where India variant present

Closed on

Close the borders to India and other countries where the India variant of covid-19 has been documented.

With the India variant now arrived in the UK, we should close the borders to all countries where it is present, to help keep further transmission down.

With everyone desperate for things to go back to normal, this Indian variant could derail that. The Government should take the appropriate measures to tightly control the Indian variant spreading any further so they can fulfil their promise of the easing of restrictions.
