Three stories: 🔴No countries added to UK's COVID green list - and Portugal moved to amber 🔴Court rules barracks housing for asylum seekers unlawful 🔴Trump said he would pay £100,000 'not to hear May talk'

He said the emerging Nepal mutation of the Indian variant was of concern and Portugal's positivity rate has"nearly doubled since the last review".

Nearly 20% of Portugal's population has been fully vaccinated and cases are relatively low but have been increasing over the past week.Govt takes 'safety first attitude' on travelPeople arriving in the UK from amber list countries have to take two post-arrival tests on day two and day eight after arriving and self-isolate at home for 10 days, although they can reduce that time if they take an additional negative test on day five.

Labour's Mr Symonds added:"The confusion over the 'Amber List' has led to reports of over 50,000 people travelling to the UK daily, with only a tiny percentage going into hotel quarantine and a stream of flights entering the UK from 'Amber List' countries. "Ministers also now need a clear plan to manage the confusion that will result in Portugal being removed from the 'Green List' so quickly and must publish all of the data behind this decision."

"Everyone should observe the travel guidance, continue to follow hands, face, space and fresh air, and have both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine when offered." The British Airline Pilots Association said:"This excessive caution could be the final nail in the coffin for the travel industry which has borne the economic brunt of the COVID-19 crisis with no help from the government."
