To be proudly British and proudly European is possible. I'm sure you'll agree. Together we're stronger, divided we're weakened. However as you say we'll move on, not necessarily for the better. Nighty night, and stay safe/alert
Everyone is entitled to go on holiday to the EU or outside the EU. Where people want to go on holiday, or don't want to go on holiday, is incredibly trivial to the response to coronavirus.

Many people will have lost money earlier in the year for booked holidays, been unable to work or spent months on reduced income on a furlough scheme. All of these people are entitled to the same right to travel worldwide as anyone else if restrictions are eased to allow it.

The threat from the virus doesn't care if you are a leaver or remainer, on the left or the right. And our response needs to reflect that.

Many on this forum wish to dismiss any negativity towards the Government response on that basis - and posts such as this are not helpful in that regard.
