Boris Johnson has said signs of a second wave of coronavirus in mainland Europe meant it was his duty to impose quarantine rules on people arriving in the UK from Spain. He has also suggested that more countries could follow Spain in having quarantine re-imposed for arrivals to the UK, although he also implied that the government is actively considering reducing the period of quarantine from 14 days to 10 days. (See 12.18pm.) Nicola Sturgeon has urged holidaymakers to avoid all non-essential foreign travel and instead stay in Scotland because of the heightened risk of a sudden change in coronavirus quarantine rules. As Severin Carrell reports, the first minister said the sudden decision last Saturday to require travellers from Spain to quarantine for 14 days underlined how volatile the situation had become, after a series of Covid-19 flare-ups in other countries. Speaking during her regular coronavirus press conference, she added: If it was me, I wouldn’t be booking a foreign holiday right now. I would choose, if I had the time to go on holiday, I would be choosing to spend it here in Scotland. With Scotland reporting the 12th day in a row with no deaths of confirmed Covid-19 patients in hospital, Sturgeon said it was essential no unnecessary risks were taken. The Welsh government is also urging people to avoid foreign holidays. (See 1.51pm.) Sturgeon has said she is trying to get the UK government to follow Scotland in committing to the goal of eliminating coronavirus. (See 1.04pm and 4.27pm.) The UK has recorded a further 119 coronavirus deaths, taking the official headline total to 45,878. (See 4.33pm.) The government closing its furlough scheme this autumn is a “mistake” that will drive up unemployment by 1.2 million by Christmas, one of the UK’s leading economics thinktanks has warned. People in Oldham have been told to stop visiting friends and family to avoid a full local lockdown after the number of coronavirus cases more than quadrupled in a week. That’s all from me for today.
