Seems logical the Canadian government will take measures to keep the trucks far away from Parliament. Close down the city if they have to.

I wonder if the Canadians even have enough tanks and APCs to make a cordon around Parliament. That would be an entertaining visual.

Thanks, that is great news for people living in the UK, and fantastic compared to stupid restrictions in the USA, Canada and Australia. Foreigners unless they are vaccinated have very complicated strict requirements. But I am happy to see that at least one can now enter UK if you are unvaccinated. So maybe now Novak can play at Wimbledon if he goes through all the procedures.

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-to-england-from-another-country-during-coronavirus-covid-19#if-you-are-not-fully-vaccinated

“If you are not fully vaccinated
This is what you need to do if you do not qualify under the fully vaccinated rules for travel to England.
Before you travel to England – not fully vaccinated
Before you travel to England you must:

take a COVID-19 test – to be taken in the 2 days before you travel to England
book and pay for day 2 and day 8 COVID-19 PCR tests – to be taken after arrival in England
complete a passenger locator form – to be completed in the 48 hours before you arrive in England
You will need to enter the booking reference for your day 2 and day 8 tests in the UK passenger locator form.

When you arrive in England – not fully vaccinated
After you arrive in England you must:

quarantine at home or in the place you are staying for 10 full days
take your COVID-19 PCR tests – you must book these tests before you travel
You must take the first test on or before day 2 and the second test on or after day 8. The day you arrive is day 0.

If you are in England for less than 10 days, you need to quarantine for the time you are here. You need to book day 2 and day 8 PCR tests. You only need to take the tests if you are still in England on those days.

If the test result is positive
If your day 2 test is positive, you must self-isolate for 10 full days. The day you took the test is day 0.

You do not need to take the day 8 test if your day 2 test is positive. If your day 2 test is negative, you must take your day 8 test.

If your day 8 test is positive, you must self-isolate for 10 full days. The day you took the day 8 test is day 0.

If the test result is negative
If your day 2 test is negative, you must continue to quarantine.

You must take your day 8 test on or after day 8.

If your day 8 test is negative, you can stop quarantine on whichever is later:

day 10 – day 0 is the day you arrived in England
when you receive the day 8 test result
Example
If you receive your day 8 negative test result back on day 9, you must continue to quarantine until the end of day 10.

If you receive your day 8 negative test result back on day 12, you must quarantine until the end of day 12.

If the test result is unclear
If the result of your day 2 test is unclear, you must self-isolate for 10 full days. The day you took the test is day 0.

If the result of your day 8 test is negative, you can stop self-isolating on whichever is later:

day 10 - day 0 is the day you arrived in England
the day you received the negative day 8 test result
If your day 8 test is unclear, you must self-isolate for 10 full days. The day you took the day 8 test is day 0.

You can choose to take another private test. If that test result is a negative result, you can stop self-isolating on whichever is later:

day 10 - day 0 is the day you arrive in England
the day you received the negative replacement test result from the additional test
Test to Release scheme
If you need to quarantine, you may be able to end quarantine early if you pay for a private COVID-19 test through the Test to Release scheme.

Red list countries
There are different rules if you have been in a red list country in the 10 days before you arrive in England.

Check which countries and territories are on the red list and read the red list rules.

Travelling with children
Children aged 4 and under do not have to take any COVID-19 travel tests.

Children aged 5 to 17 have to follow the testing and quarantine rules for people who qualify as fully vaccinated on arrival in England.

This means that they have to take a COVID-19 test after they arrive in England – before the end of day 2 at the latest.

Check the rules in this guidance for people who qualify as fully vaccinated for travel to England for more details.

You should also check the rules in the country you are travelling from as they may require children to take a test at the start of your journey to England.

There are different rules for children who have been in a red list country or territory in the 10 days before they arrive in England.

Medical and work-related exemptions
Some people cannot be fully vaccinated for medical reasons.

Read more about medical exemptions from vaccination.

There are also medical exemptions from:

testing before travel to England
quarantine for people having medical treatment
Some people are exempt from some or all of the requirements because of the job they do.

Transiting through England
Read separate guidance if you are transiting through England as part of an international journey.

Ireland, the UK, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man
If you're travelling to England from within the UK, Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man, you do not need to:

complete a passenger locator form
take any COVID-19 tests
quarantine on arrival in England
This only applies if you have not been outside of the UK, Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man in the 10 days before the day you arrive in England. If you have, you must follow the international travel rules in the place where you arrive.

See separate guidance on travel within the Common Travel Area after international travel.

Red list countries and territories
There are different rules if you have been in a red list country or territory in the 10 days before you arrive in England. If you need to follow red list rules, you must do so if you are fully vaccinated or not.

Check which countries and territories are on the red list and read the red list rules.”

It's Over England Drops Covid Restrictions

Other sources are coming on line including the P.M.'s speech to Parliament. Other nations are joining in, Sweden and the Chec Republic. Our media can't follow orders to suppress the story for much longer. The spin doctors are burning the oil tonight. Not to mention the growing trucker's strike on the Canadian border.

This is fantastic news. Hopefully our Aussie state governments will take heed.

So if the real truckers go Galt, the third-worlders will be free to destroy each other Road Warrior style, and the only pity is the poor motorists on the interstates, which they will probably studiously avoid after a few crash-ups with big rigs make the news. My middle son is a trucker, and he has my sympathies. Don’t know what his attitude is about the jab and the mandate, though.

I was thinking more of Todd Beamer’s war cry on United 93, but couldn’t say “let’s” not being a trucker.

Our truckers should strike until Biden and Harris resign.
——————
Then you have President Pelosi - how’s that going to work out? We don’t have a parliamentary system like Canada.

I want a strike…let the gibsmedats riot, and let the whole nation see what the consequences of these dictatorial actions are: no protection against disease and greatly reduced liberties.

Even if that unthinkable occurred we would get a new speaker out of the deal which isn't the worst hypothetical.

Do these political clowns understand the anarchy that would ensue if a food shortage ever occurred?

You can be thankful that I did not excerpt the original.

Missing for me as well, now.
