Allow U.K. citizens vaccinated abroad to return to the U.K. without isolating.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

End the discrimination and allow U.K. citizens living and working abroad, who have been vaccinated with an approved single/double dose vaccine and a negative Covid test result, to return to the U.K. without having to isolate.
I am heartbroken, I haven’t seen my daughter since January 2020. She has been vaccinated in the US with the one dose Johnson and Johnson vaccine, which has been approved by the U.K. Government.
She was hoping to return to the U.K. for a two week holiday but, if she has to isolate for 10 days, it gives her just a few days to see other family and friends, which just isn’t worth the expense and lost time. Please sign and help end this discrimination against U.K. citizens living abroad.
