German authorities are not taking criticism of the Government’s handling of Covid lightly. On Tuesday, we covered the raiding of the house, office and car of a Weimar judge who earlier this month ruled against the wearing of face masks in schools. Now, reports have emerged that the country’s domestic spy agency is monitoring anti-lockdown activists for suspected sedition. Reuters has the story.
Germany’s domestic spy agency is monitoring individuals who have joined anti-lockdown protests to decide if their rejection of Government curbs amounts to subversion and incitement to violence.
The surveillance includes some members of the “Querdenker” or “Lateral Thinkers” movement, which has been organising increasingly violent protests against coronavirus lockdowns and includes conspiracy theorists and suspected far-right extremists, a spokeswoman for the BfV spy agency said.
The movement started with small demonstrations in the southern city of Stuttgart last year but has grown in scope and reach, drawing to its protests Germans from all walks of life frustrated with lockdowns in place since November.
Authorities fear that far-right extremists and conspiracy theorists who either deny the existence of Covid or downplay its threat to public health are exploiting lockdown frustrations to stir anger against politicians and state institutions five months before a general election…
Domestic spies fear far-right extremists could seek to boost anger against state institutions such as the police after parliament gave temporary powers this month to Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Government to enforce lockdowns in areas with high infection rates.
The new powers have drawn fierce criticism from opposition parties, including the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, whose leaders have joined anti-lockdown protests.
The BKA federal police agency has told parliament that the names of lawmakers who voted for the amendments figured in an online document titled, “Death list of German politicians”, while adding that they were in no imminent danger.
A spokeswoman for the BfV said: “Organisers of demonstrations which are mainly led by protagonists of the Querdenker movement have an agenda that goes beyond protesting against the state’s measures against the coronavirus.” The Interior Minister of the eastern state of Thuringia added that attacks made against the police demonstrate the extent of the radicalisation among anti-lockdown protesters.

Ah, the final’s in Danzig, with its much reduced German population!
I’ll try once again with the vaccines. What I want to know from any advocate of these “vaccines” (or sceptic for that matter) is this.
In France, there have been rather more deaths attributed to covid-19 through April and May than in the UK. The “vaccination” of over 75’s has also been continuing through April in France by my calculations (whilst having more or less finished significantly earlier in the UK). Is there any possible connection to hitting the most vulnerable with these experimental drugs through April and the larger number of deaths, and what is your evidence? And preferably avoid citing big pharmaceutical companies and their various proxies.
The French all causes deaths for 2021 are EXACTLY the same as 2019, monthly and cumulative. The numbers you see in worldometer etc are recording a casedemic.
The number of people who have had one injection is 27% of the population, those with two is 12.7% , the government target is 60% . Currently they stand no chance of reaching that number.
If you want to dive deeper into typically French detail look at this site which is as accurate as it can be , its maintained by non-government people. The main pages are about the virus/disease. The ‘vaccine’ numbers are accessed by the drop down menu under ‘outils’ on the top right hand corner of the banner.

This is of course ludicrous. But is it any wonder that clubs/EUFA think that fans will be willing to do this, when it seems to have been decided that elite men’s football is an “essential” industry that simply had to go ahead despite us supposedly being in a deadly global pandemic?! Bread and circuses…
Welcome to your new future on planet insanity.
Both Left and Right wing governments are no bastion of freedoms shock horror
Seem to be 2 brands of the same globalists to ensure zero real choice.
I have had both AZ vaccines. I am happy and I know some people with real animus towards pharma will call me a willing sheep. I am happy and can defend the science. I know there are people who are sincerely concerned about vaccine safety but I really do think we need to stop conflating lock down scepticism and vaccine scepticism.
Wouldn’t make a scrap of difference if you were a fan wanting to go to Gdansk. Did you get jabbed under the misunderstanding that it would give you ‘freedom’, or because you were really worried about getting a disease with an IFR of 0.15%?
It’s not conflation when it was offered as the means to escap lockdown.
Control sport, particularly football, and you can control the unwashed masses.
It sill amazes me how dumb they all are.
“Face masks must be worn at all times”
From this Saturday this is no longer true, masks outside in Poland will not be required. Will only apply to inside and on the public transport.
