UK risks 'isolation' if current travel corridors policy continues, says Portuguese MP
Telegraph, 12 Sep 2020
A Portuguese MP has branded the decision to remove Portugal from its list of travel corridors as 'unfair'.
Ricardo B. Leite, an MP for the Portuguese Social Democratic Party (PSD) and Medical Doctor, said the UK shouldn't just consider the number of new infections when deciding which countries to green-list.
Leite called for a new approach to decide which countries are safe to travel to, that takes into account testing and tracing infections and suspected infections.
