Allow family members from red list countries to visit after double vaccinations

Closed 329 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should allow family members of UK residents to visit from red list countries e.g. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, if they have been double vaccinated and have a negative lateral flow test result. They should not be required to quarantine on arrival.
We have not seen our parents for 2 years now due to COVID pandemic. We didn't travel until vaccinations were available and did socially responsible actions, however now with vaccinations happening in most countries, if family members (who are not UK-residents or nationals) have been given double vaccination and test negative, they should be allowed to visit the UK.
