"We haven't been home in a year and a half" - South African stuck in UK

Loading player...
This morning, we were able to chat to one of the people affected by the travel bans placed against South Africa. This is James Howse who is from South Africa but based in the UK for work.
He shares the details of how far in his journey back he was when the news broke. \
He also tells us how the entire year of consistent lockdowns have made it impossible to come visit family.
Take a listen as he shares the general consensus on the ground in the UK. Are people annoyed with the South African government, or with the UK government?
