Campaigners from the Together Declaration group which opposes the introduction of vaccine passports will soon meet with members of the parliamentary Covid Recovery Group (CRG) along with other MPs and will together demand that the Government never imposes these passes, including under the pretext of an “exceptionally difficult winter“. The Sunday Express has the story.
Campaigners for the Together Declaration petition, already signed by almost 110,000 people, fear that the U.K. Government will be pushed into agreeing to a so-called ‘Plan B’ to bring in new restrictions over the winter.
It follows warnings by Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty last week that the NHS will “experience an exceptionally difficult winter” this year. …
Already, Sir Graham Brady, Chairman of the 1922 Committee, which represents backbench Conservative MPs has signed the declaration.
He said: “‘Vaccine passports would set an alarming precedent where our medical records become public and some people are subjected to discrimination as they seek to go about their everyday lives. Surely that isn’t the kind of society that we want to create?”
Another senior Tory MP, Sir Desmond Swayne added: “It is contrary to all our values and traditions to have to prove that we have undergone a medical procedure to go about our lawful business.
“It is coercive and discriminatory, the abandonment of liberal values; a frightful precedent to set. I am appalled that a Conservative Government could contemplate such a measure. If we start down this road the future is dark.”
Campaigners will meet former minister Steve Baker, Deputy Chairman of the powerful CRG, and other Parliamentarians tomorrow before unfurling a 40m banner in Parliament Square.
Other confirmed supporters include MPs Esther McVey, Philip Davies, Chris Green and Henry Smith as well as Baroness Fox and Lord Sharpe from the Lords. …
The declaration is being organised by campaigner Alan Miller who fears that vaccine passports in England will come.
He said: “The U.K. Government has never taken Plan B off the table and now they have happened in Wales and Scotland it will be very tempting to introduce them.”
The petition has also been signed by leading scientists and medics including Professor Karol Sikora, leading cancer specialist; and Marcantonio Spada, professor of Psychology at London’s Southbank University.

As Sir Desmond Swayne MP puts it in a recent blog post
“…the BBC (in reality a partisan campaigning organisation)…”

One would have to possess a heart of stone not to laugh.
I’ll only laugh if the BBC admits she lied, apologises for having a liar as a disinformation reporter and sacks her, or I see a flying pig.
Honestly, hasn’t she got a face you would just love to slap?
(A wet slap at that!)
“A brilliant reporter” what smug twat she is!
a BRILLIANT LIAR more like!
Oh what a terrible shame. I thought she was such an open-minded, honest and even-handed person, not someone who is simply reverting to type…./sarc.
Miss Information Mariana Spring falls
“Everything else on my CV is entirely true.” Unless it isn’t. Oh how I laughed. She will however escape punishment or any kind of sanction.
The bottom line wth this Spring creature is that she is a liar. We know that, she knows that and we can always call on this fact when the stupid, evil woman needs taking down a peg.
Those eyebrows look like ‘deliberate disinformation’ to me.
If you’re going to put yourself in this sort of position, you have to be whiter than white. Since no one can be that perfect, there shouldn’t be a BBC Verify. The very idea that a state broadcaster funded by compulsion is now dictating what is and isn’t reality is utterly terrifying. The only conclusion is that the people are consciously malevolent or so stupid that they’ve no idea just what sort of slope they’re sliding down.
Can someone tell me what big news story this person has ever reported on?…..What exactly are her supposed reporting credentials?….…
Before last year I had never heard of her…and the only thing I know about her now is that she seems to be another useless, likely overpaid BBC numpty….with a non-job, paid for at our expense….
….the idea that we, the public, should pay for these people to tell us what we can and cannot see…..or read..or hear…and that somehow they have the magical power of being the only ones capable of being the arbitrators of the truth is beyond ridiculous…
Who the hell do they think they are?… especially air-headed twenty something’s who know way less than me….just bugger off, no thank you….I’m not buying the crap you are selling….
We know civilisation is in terminal decline, but If this is the epitome of what we now call an investigative reporter..God help us…..

PS…a round of applause for all you smug buggers who don’t pay a licence fee!!! LOL!
“What exactly are her supposed reporting credentials?….…”
Apparently she once bumped in to Sarah Rainsford. Err, that’s it.
Who is Sarah Rainsford?
She is, apparently, a leg-end in her own lunchtime.
And a bell-end the rest of the time.
As Vanessa Beeley said of Spring on U.K. Column “she’s a piece of work”.
There’s an article in Spiked on this issue. For a while it seems to find it slightly amusing although by the end it does admit that the BBC’s reach makes it a bit more important.
Well I don’t find it remotely amusing. The woman is a proven liar and yet she is telling millions of people that others who have the temerity to question events are the ones lying.
She should be sacked and never work in the media again but we know that’s not the way the MSM work.
Leave her in place – if she does the equivalent damage to the BBC licence fee payers that Mulvaney did to Bud Lite sales all well and good.
Those doctors and scientists who have stood up to all the covid nonsense have told the truth despite the detriment to their careers
Marianna Spring has lied to further her career, both on her CV and in her reporting.
What a contrast between these heroes and the despicable low-life Spring.
Perhaps the most significant thing about Marianna Spring is that she’s the best the BBC could get to run its Orwellian offshoot. She’s a nobody, who looks about 12 (age, not size!) whom no one had heard of before, who has no significant experience. You would have expected them to front this setup with a big name, but clearly no one experienced with any common sense would take on such a job.
She’s actually probably a nice girl who means well, but a lot of these people suckered by the progressivist left don’t understand just how totalitarian their world view is. In essence: ‘You should be nice to everyone. I’ll MAKE you be nice to everyone!’
That manjaw: this picture makes it look as though Marianna has a huge manjaw. I’m sure she hasn’t got a manjaw like this, so why publish a picture that makes it look as though she has actually got a huge manjaw?
It really is a low blow to try and pretend that she has got a huge manjaw and I think you should reconsider. Women have feelings too, Daily Sceptic.
Check her out on a picture search. That’s what she looks like when they aren’t doing carefully lit publicity pictures…
What she looks like is not particularly relevant. What she spouts is. She is a crook.
BTF that’s putting it mildly.
Hopefully more TV licence cancellations come of this.
The BBC lie by omission. During all the time since the Covid vaccines were first introduced in December 2020 – two years and nine months ago – the BBC have reported nothing negative about the Covid vaccines. Absolutely nothing – apart from the death of the BBC’s own presenter, Lisa Shaw, which the Coroner stated was due to the Covid vaccine, which the BBC could not avoid reporting, briefly.
The BBC have never allowed any expert critical of the vaccines to speak on the BBC. They never report what any critic of the vaccines say. That’s not honest reporting, that’s propaganda.
There was an interview with Dr Malhotra, but he did have to use subterfuge: –
https://twitter.com/DrAseemMalhotra/status/1613837487796850688?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1613837487796850688%7Ctwgr%5Ee29792375d4be71d6ecf52cfad4d8594860d5d06%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeadline.com%2F2023%2F01%2Fbbc-interview-anti-vax-aseem-malhotra-praised-by-andrew-bridgen-1235220965%2F
Yes, the interview wasn’t about the vaccines, but he managed to get a sentence in about them when the interviewer wasn’t expecting it. And it was on a regional BBC channel, not any of the main channels.
By their silence, they have actually endorsed our scepticism about the new
wonder jabs being pushed on the population for a virus that 98% survive.
Jesus. That smile. The smile of the smug and the self-righteous.
What a dupe.
In the private sector, lying on your CV would be an instant P45.
Agreed
Marianna Spring identifies as a Brilliant Journalist but hasn’t actually made the transition yet.
The bigger question is why a 26 year old, with all of her life’s inexperience, could get the job in the first place. Like most of her ilk she knows the square root of sweet FA
Yes, you’d expect a big name BBC journalist to front such an organisation, not someone in her mid-20s with no life experience. Which means no big name journalist would take the job.
Who better to employ to broadcast lies than a liar.
