What the petition asks
Prevent British citizens travelling abroad except in cases of exceptional circumstances.
The government has given instructions to self isolate on return from certain areas of the world. If they were serious about protecting public health and trying to prevent a pandemic then why do they not restrict British citizens from travelling to these parts of the world. Is commerce and finances more important than keeping the people of Britain healthy. Please sign the petition and make them debate this in parliament.
