COVID-19 travel: Pinging causes 'chaos' at border control

Long lines formed and had to wait for hours at Heathrow Airport after several border patrol employees were forced to self-isolate as a result of being pinged.

Heathrow Airport has urged the government to reopen the UK economy to fully vaccinated travellers from the EU and United States by the end of the month.

Heathrow Airport CEO John Holland-Kaye talks about the complications and expense for travellers coming from low risk countries.

The people who will be paid to self isolate are begging to be pinged...talking to a lorry driver yesterday who was gutted his manager got pinged and he didnt..lol

Every member of parliament needs to be arrested and putting on trial for crimes against humanity.

The level of stupid and willful desire to be controlled it must take to not only agree to be “pinged” but to _want_ it.

Two questions which the MSM never addresses. Why did the government abandon the well-established pandemic contingency plan, which specifically excluded lockdowns, in favour of an hysterical response? Why was a credible risk/benefit analysis never presented?

Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men...

Not the pinging but the virus causing the problems.

People are getting pinged because of someone who was there five hours earlier.
