Which? Travel editor Rory Boland has urged the UK government to announce its plans for the travel testing system to "end uncertainty for millions of people".

Chief executive Julia Lo Bue-Said said the travel industry has "struggled" to get its "collective voice heard" by the government during the pandemic

His comments come after health secretary Sajid Javid said he wanted to end PCR testing for those returning to the UK "as soon as he possibly could".

Boland said travellers were "let down badly" during the summer by a "dysfunctional travel testing system" that left people facing "rip-off prices".
