A British lawmaker, Henry Smith who represents the Gatwick area in Britain, has proposed that the ”quarantine be halted”.

He hoped that the quarantine plan for international travellers would be reviewed and scrapped by July 1.

Britain is due to introduce a 14-day quarantine for arrivals in a bid to prevent a second surge in the coronavirus pandemic.

The 51-year-old conservative politician told BBC TV that he would try to challenge the plan.

“In practical terms, making sure this quarantine is reviewed in the next few weeks with a view to hopefully being dropped by the first of July is probably the most practical way forward,” he explained.
