These people travel back and forth to their country of origin creating a large risk, but the vast majority are British citizens so they are entitled.
Mind you it is criminal that when we new of the problem they weren't tested or isolated.
That subject presents a pretty graphic illustration of why this government is so f@cking useless. I've just read that the Heathrow airport boss is taking action while the government are still sitting on their arse and doing next to nothing:

The boss of Heathrow Airport has told MPs that it is trialling large-scale temperature checks as the aviation industry struggles with coronavirus. He said they are already being carried out at departure gates on people going to places where this is a requirement.

So he quite rightly suggests that we do our bit to stop us spreading the virus elsewhere, but we are doing nothing at all to stop foreign travellers bringing it in! How difficult is it to do a simple temperature check on arrivals from places deemed risky?

Obviously far too difficult for the bunch of incompetent ***** we have in charge.
