No, the EU don't control everything...

The real question is why do you have this type of friends in your life?

Life is too short to be surrounded by garbage people.

Cut ties, move on.

They're not his friends, it's him and his Mrs!

The reason is the two who can't go have just returned from India a couple of days ago.

They are now thinking about faking PCR tests to get a refund (they know someone who is positive, get them to do the tests and post off, suddenly insurance pays up).
This is the attitude and morality of the right.

Please remind them faking a covid test to make an insurance claim is fraud. I have have a friend who is a freelance investigator, the insurance companies use him to phone claimant's and ask casual questions.

The right tend to break rules to benefit themselves (power, money), the left do it for the cause (power, money).

The left in this country gave up on the pursuit of power years ago (thankfully). They're far more concerned with being the People's Front of Judea than the Judean People's Front...

Turns out two of the group can't go, due to failing the Italian requirements.

Friends of ours (who considered Nick Ferrari, GBNews, the Mail and the Tories as reliable, balanced centrists, and followed the big red bus) are supposed to be going on holiday to Italy this weekend as part of a large group.
It appears that they believed that "The EU" control all the border regulations for individual countries, and so, rather than checking the specific requirements for travel to Italy, they just looked what "The EU" said.
They spoke to a travel agent earlier this week about something else, and the travel agent asked them if they had done the necessary checks for entry to Italy. Turns out two of the group can't go, due to failing the Italian requirements.
Our friends then got on to the Foreign Office, the Italian consulate and other government bodies to find out why, only to be told it was the Italian rules and they need to follow them. They have asked for a special exception just for them, etc. No luck.
They sent us an email offering for us to go on holiday with them "Because Italy has broken the EU law"

No matter what, they still won't accept that they believed a lie, continue to believe it, and even when it's proven wrong to them, they won't give in, but instead want special treatment.
I suspect they will be voting further to the right in the next election, as this government have clearly failed to deliver the promised Brexit.

I feel sad for them about their holiday, but not with that attitude.
