Boris Johnson to reveal details of hotel quarantine for arrivals to UK tomorrow

Speaking at this evenings Downing Street press conference, Boris Johnson confirmed that the health secretary Matt Hancock will set out the government’s hotel quarantine plan tomorrow.

The plan announced by Mr Johnson last week is to introduce a mandatory 10-day quarantine on arrivals to the UK from 30 countries.

When asked whether the border restrictions are strong enough he insisted that the UK has “one of the toughest border regimes anywhere in the world”.

This is despite both Scotland and Wales’ first ministers Nicola Sturgeon and Mark Drakeford promising to go even further on measures they deem ‘insufficient.’.

Nicola Sturgeon yesterday announced Scotland would soon be introducing a “managed quarantine” on all arrivals and not just those from an “at-risk” country.
