[SUN] Boris Johnson told MPs yesterday it "may be up to the landlord" — adding: "The concept of vaccine certification should not be totally alien to us."But last night Tory MPs slammed the idea of showing "papers for the pub."
Government sources told The Sun that allowing pubs, bars and restaurants to set their own rules was within the scope of a review being led by Michael Gove and due to report back next month.
Mr Johnson had previously poured cold water on the idea of a vaccine passport being needed to nip into a boozer.
But speaking to a committee of MPs yesterday, he indicated the decision will be handed to individual businesses.
He said: "I think that’s the kind of thing that may be up to individual publicans. It may be up to the landlord."
