Speaking on the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show on Sunday (7 February), Nadhim Zahawi said as vaccinations were not mandated by the state and were administered “by consent” such a policy would not be feasible.
Despite Greece’s prime minister saying last week he would welcome British holidaymakers if they could prove they have been vaccinated, Zahawi said: “that’s not how we do things in the UK”.
“There are several reasons why we’re not doing that. One vaccines are not mandated in this country, as Boris Johnson has quite rightly reminded parliament that’s not how we do things in the UK, we do them by consent.
