I think the Guernsey approach is justified. We are back to normal here in our Bailiwick Bubble. We can travel between the Islands of the Bailiwick and the rest of the Island economy is running as normal. I can go for a meal, meet friends and family, go shopping and all without social distancing.

People can come in if they self isolate, for example returning to the Island or coming here to work.

I don't want it jeopardised just for the sake of tourists. Why undo all the good work. Our government is supporting the hospitality industry here and so are us locals. Lots of staycations going on at Hotels. Some are fully booked until September. Try and get a table at a restaurant at a few days notice and you will struggle.

I would love to go and see friends and family off Island but until everywhere else gets it under control we are better off keeping restrictions in place. It would be nice to see friends and family off Island but short term pain for long term gain.
