Ambassador pleads with US to lift ban on European travellers

The Irish ambassador to the United States has called on the government to lift its temporary ban on European travellers as the continued restrictions were “damaging” relations with the EU.

#UKGov wants to move towards a travel system based on “individual” rather than “blanket country” risk. So two people returning from the same country would face differing testing approaches depending on whether they’re fully-jabbed. This should have been in place this summer.

The US Congressman Brendan Boyle has criticized the government for the travel ban imposed on European nationals for more than 500 days now, saying it “makes no sense” and that vaccinated travellers and those who test negative for Coronavirus should be permitted to enter the country.

“The blanket ban on EU citizens coming to the US makes no sense, especially given many EU countries have higher COVID-19 vaccination rates and far fewer COVID-19 cases. As long as those wanting to come to the US test negative for COVID-19 & are vaccinated, they should be allowed in,”

thanks mararab, l can accept that..

Good luck, when you do decide to get back in you have done well so far..

mararab, are you worried about profit or the share price?

..the first thing to change the fortunes of the share price will be the daily people tested positive stats...

Most Asian stocks rose Tuesday as Japan extended a rally and traders took heart from indications that the global recovery is weathering challenges from the delta virus variant... bloomberg

Profit vs Scale

..l am sure focusing on profit in the current climate would shrink the business, sometimes it is about just surviving and In BA’s case it is about surviving with scale so it can capitalise when the market is there…

..my trade is based on price analysis and that is where leave it, it up to IAG to run the business and for anyone else to decide if they want to invest based on there own analysis..
a lot of analysis here is based on what isn’t happening, instead on what is happening…

With respect

yes mararab, they need to make sure demand is there..

..let them run the business, all their energy will going into what they are doing at the moment and by the sound of it going to Gatwick will in part be taking market share from Easy Jet...

February 18th when the price was at this level, the question was will the international market open, with no Revenue income in hand.. a fact

now, at the same price, will America open up, with a growing Revenue income in hand...

l cannot see how this isn't a keen price and should be taken advantage of as price analysis confirms it..!

..if you disagree that is fine but don't tell me l am wrong...

honestly, at this price it is not about when the US market will open up but 'will' the US market will open up...

honestly, at this price it is not about when the US market will open up but if the US market will open up...

increasing activity mararab, how can that be misleading...

like l said if you don't like it's your bad luck...

...respectfully
