Worth noting that in Wales, the Plaid Cymru leader has openly asked that the Welsh government imposes restrictions to arrivals from highly infected English areas, seemingly echoing the message of worry expressed by the Welsh health minister. From the Guardian:The Plaid Cymru leader, Adam Price, has called on the Welsh government to act at once to ban people from travelling from high infection areas in England into Wales.

Welsh ministers have said they are disappointed that Boris Johnson has not stopped people travelling out of Covid-19 hotspots and are considering their next steps. Price said:
I would be more than disappointed, I’m livid at the attitude of the prime minister.

Previously Mark Drakeford [the Welsh first minister] has said there was not any evidence of this kind of infection from people travelling from over the border.

Now, we heard from health minister Vaughan Gething for the first time that there is actual evidence that has been identified of transmission that has happened as a result of people coming from high infection areas of England into Wales.

We’re beyond the point of ‘consideration’ – the Welsh government needs to act today.
