One woman from Bolton flew out to the Greek island of Kos last week with her daughter, and says she feels safer there than being back home in England due to the strict measures in place.
Speaking from her hotel room as respite from the scorching 36-degree heat, Gail Hadfield Grainger told the M.E.N: “I feel so much safer over here. I know where I stand; I feel comfortable that the locals have got everybody’s best interest at heart.
“In the UK you just don't know what’s going on from one day to the next. Here you feel protected and comfortable.”The 37-year-old booked last minute flights with Jet2 and set off from Manchester Airport on July 16 with her 11-year-old daughter, along with her friends and their daughter.
