our europe correspondent nick beake joins me now.ink there are two groups, broadly, i many of the eu countries? i think l there are two groups, broadly, who would have been pretty pleased with this. first of all, people living in the eu who have been double jab, who were hoping to get to the uk for a holiday, from next monday they can do that without having to quarantine. so if they had a plan to go to london, the lake district, wherever, they will be able to do that without having to go into isolation when they arrive. and the second group would be british citizens, who live within the eu, countries including belgium, all the rest of it, who have got their two jabs, but it hasn't been approved by the uk government. so what ministers are saying today is that they are enabling people to be reunited with loved ones, brits who live abroad, they can get back to the uk, they won't need to quarantine and in effect it is putting the eu's level of vaccination on the same sort of path or giving at the same weight as the nhs system, so that's
