British holidaymakers have been dealt yet another blow tonight, with the Government announcing travellers arriving from France will still have to quarantine even if they have had both Covid jabs.
The sudden reversal, which will likely throw thousands of summer holiday plans into disarray, comes just days before the end of school term and 'Freedom Day' on July 19.
Holiday hopefuls had previously been told that they would be able to avoid 'Amber List' quarantine rules from Monday.
That's the date when the Government had set down for allowing double jabbed Britons return from Amber List countries without having to quarantine.
But France will now be made an exemption to the rules, amid concern over the spread of the Beta (South Africa) strain across the Channel.
