WhyIis The UK Acting Like a Basket Case??

What on earth goes through the minds of those running this country? How can it be that almost every European country as well as most other foreign nations have banned the British from entering their countries due to our high toll of coronavirus cases, but Britain is still allowing flights into Heathrow and Gatwick every single day with thousands of passengers arriving from Coronavirus hotspots such as China, Iran, Italy and Spain, all without a single check as they arrive. And this is still happening today!!

What on earth is going on???

Surely many are bringing back Britons who have been stranded abroad under that particular country's lock down rules. We can't deny them their right to come home. Looking at the schedule for Heathrow today there aren't that many arrivals, many of those are internal.

Agreed, but at least impose testing or isolation.

I've been asking the same question. When those first homecomers were bussed to the Wirral and quarantined for 14 days, why isn't everyone treated like this?

Could it be that the penny is dropping SG?
We ARE a basket case.
We allowed 1000s to go on holiday all over the world in February and March. We allow private jets in and out of all of our airfields without even checking passports and ps they don't show up on "Flightradar24" for some reason.
We allow so called "businessmen" to travel anywhere they like on their "Jollys"

Didn't you vote to "Take back control"? Now do you get it? We can't even feed ourselves without help from those foreigners (who BTW are most of our key workers).

We all saw this coming in January in China. Then we saw it spread to Italy. Then 1000s of British holiday makers came back from their skiing hols in Italy. We stopped no-one and tested no-one and it spread like wildfire. Our "cabinet" cannot even protect themselves let alone organise hospitals equipment, manufacturing, food distribution etc etc.

God help us!
