COVID-19: Tests to end for fully jabbed travellers

Transport Secretary Grant Shapps has declared the Government is "setting Britain free" after he announced COVID tests for travellers arriving in England are to be axed.

The new rules will come into place at 4am on 11 February - just in time for the February half-term.

It comes after the chief executives of the UK's largest airlines urged the government to end coronavirus-related travel restrictions.
