This is in addition to Scotland effectively enforcing a travel ban between Scotland and England more thoroughly than ever before.

I truly hope that I am wrong, but from the vibe I'm getting, I very much fear that in the next few days, and for a number of weeks, most if not all travel from the UK to the EU might become impossible (in addition to separate and unrelated Brexit challenges to come).
If you follow Matt Hancock's thinking today, the bans could be for 3 months until the vaccine is rolled out! Just when I thought it couldn't get worse.
