Holidaymakers across the UK have been left confused after Wales and Scotland added Portugal to their quarantines lists, but England and Northern Ireland did not.

Along with Portugal, Wales has removed Gibraltar, French Polynesia and the Greek islands of Mykonos, Zakynthos, Lesvos, Paros and Antiparos and Crete from the list of exempt countries and territories.

Anyone returning to Wales from those countries after 4am on Friday must self-isolate for 14 days.

The Azores and Madeira remain exempt from Wales's quarantine list.

Just hours later, Scotland announced that anyone arriving into Scotland from Portugal or French Polynesia will have to self isolate for two weeks as of Saturday.

Scottish Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf added that Gibraltar remains "high up" on his country's "watch list of countries we are monitoring closely".
