The petition highlights Shapps’s comments dating to 7 May when he said international travel would restart from 17 May, "bringing long-awaited relief to hard-hit airlines, airports and the tourism sector".
However, it contrasts this with the government’s decision on Thursday (3 June), announced by Shapps, to remove Portugal from the UK’s quarantine-free green list.
"After the planned removal of Portugal, only one destination on the green list is accessible and accepting Brits who are not vaccinated: Gibraltar," read the petition.
