Portugal is being dropped from England’s travel corridor list just weeks after it was added, meaning arrivals from the country will be forced to quarantine for a fortnight.
In a blow to holidaymakers, the transport secretary, Grant Shapps, who made the announcement on Thursday, confirmed the changes would apply from 4am on Saturday leaving travellers in Portugal in a race to get home to avoid quarantine.
