Put Portugal back on the green list

What the petition asks
We believe the decision to remove Portugal from the green list is completely irrational and indefensible. Covid rates in Portugal have not risen dramatically. New daily case numbers are almost identical to those in the UK.
Portugal was apparently safe at the end of May for Chelsea and Manchester fans. Now it is considered dangerous. This decision is a massive blow to the Portuguese economy.
The major concern is that this government is making irrational, flawed decisions. The data to support these is never revealed. It is terrifying and the Government needs to be held to account.
This is not a problem for Portugal alone. There are many other countries who are almost certainly being discriminated against.
