Boris Johnson to press Joe Biden to lift the ban on Brits travelling to the US

Boris Johnson will press Joe Biden to lift the ban on travel from the UK during talks at the White House tomorrow.

Britain dropped restrictions on fully vaccinated US visitors in July as a ‘goodwill gesture’.

But, to the concern of ministers – and anger of the travel industry – the US has yet to reciprocate.

Mr Johnson and President Biden set up a dedicated working group in June to take the issue forward, following talks at the G7 summit in Cornwall.

But progress on the issue is said to have stalled.
