“I personally don’t welcome this move. Screen more heavily if need be, but I don’t like seeing this sort of action with nations like the UK and Australia with which we have had such long-standing relations.”

This is not about “relations” with allies, it’s about a radical element that is exploiting the weakness of a free and open West.

And to register once for two years of travel into the US is not asking much.

Agreed - as a British businessman who travels ALOT to the US for business, I fail to see the issue with this 72 hr mandate - especially if it gives me a pass for 24 months.

As long as there’s no whiff of “Fortress America”, I doubt this’ll have any impact on either business or leisure travel. To paraphrase, “welcome, but verify”. It’s your right.
