I think it has been for a while.
I don't remember the exact date, but around the end of 2020 / beginning 2021 at one point travel between France and the UK was allowed. Then suddenly, UK deemed France as too dangerous or something, which could be justified since cases in France were rising rapidly, whereas in Britain they were relatively stable. The next day, France halted travel from the UK "in retaliation".
It seems to me that the level of danger of a country isn't particularly related to how that country's politicians view your own, but what do I know?

(And to be clear I'm not trying to make a political point about migration, just curious about the current state of border security.) https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-35807136 https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-35807136
