Further comments

I do understand the yearning for certainty but certainty is hard in a pandemic.

People will have to be patient; we are doing everything we can to make sure people can have a holiday in the summer.

Because the vaccine roll-out is going so well, that will all help us to get out of this.

On booking holidays right now, I have.

I make no apologies for taking a tough approach to borders.
