UK's Passenger Locator Form for travel 'to be reviewed', says PM

A "bureaucratic" overseas Covid travel form is being reviewed, according to the Prime Minister.

As Boris Johnson made a statement on loosening all remaining Covid restrictions in England, Labour MP for Exeter Ben Bradshaw said: "Given everything else the Prime Minister said this afternoon, why is he keeping the bureaucratic and irritating passenger locator form when the whole of the rest of Europe can already travel freely by showing a vaccine certificate?"

Mr Johnson described the question as a "welcome call for liberty from the opposition benches", with Mr Bradshaw gesturing to him from the Labour back benches to hurry up his answer.

The Prime Minister added: "I can tell him we have one of the most open travel systems in the world and the passenger locator form, I understand his grievance against it, we are certainly reviewing it."
