I'm confused. I live in france and cannot go to the UK to see my family unless there is a very good reason, death etc?, French rules. The Uk requirements for a visit are another matter, not relevant here.
My brother-in-law who lives in the UK has a second home in france and cannot come because he does not meet one of the 13 conditions to be able to come. He has had 2 jabs but cannot come. Leisure travel from the UK to France does not appear to be allowed (by the french), so what do you know that I don't. I'm not trying to be funny because I'm sure that everyone wants to know the answer to this one.

The rules were changed today by France, completely vaccinated people from the uk can travel to France without any reason as long as they get a pre travel negative test

There are a few links confirming this already but here's the latest official notice from the uk government site

A PCR or antigen test is acceptable for travel to France for vaccinated individuals.

Travel to Franc from the UK is permitted for any reason providing you have had both jabs and a antigen test. I had an angler arrive today with no issues at all and even brought us some cases of baked beans and teabags that were seen but not a problem.

So now, if you're lucky, and meet a kind / lazy French customs official, you can take beans, teabags and bait to France.

Talk about 'taking back control'.

Some will, some won't. Just like taking any other contraband across. You weigh up the pros and cons.
