The two line charts illustrates the changes of number of visits from France and North America to United Kingdom for business and holiday respectively.
It can be seen from the first chart that holiday visits to UK from North American showed an upward trend before July, rising from only approximately 0.6 million to 3 million.

Overall, more North American travelers visit United Kingdom than French visitors for both travel and business purposes.
