During a two year period that saw emergency powers granted to governments and unprecedented financial interventions, the introduction of vaccine passports was arguably the most divisive proposal. One side argued that it was, essentially, the only way to prevent the unclean from contaminating the rest of society whilst the counterargument was that they were a step too far in terms of personal liberty. Despite this, governments around the world pressed ahead, ostensibly to facilitate international travel and allow countries to open up.
However, the tantalising opportunity to introduce them into domestic use proved too great and, in the U.K., admission to nightclubs, sports events and pop concerts was only granted to the privileged few who could produce their papers. The project soon stalled, however, as it became apparent that even vaccine passports couldn’t hold back the march of an airborne virus. On October 11th 2021, the Welsh Government brought in compulsory vaccine passports for entry into all nightclubs and other large gatherings. Nevertheless, the infection rate continued to rise, and went higher than in England where vaccine passports were not law at the time. Failing to learn anything from this experiment, the Government brought in compulsory vaccine passports for England as part of Plan B on December 8th.
Under pressure, the U.K. Government had issued a ‘Call for Evidence’ in March 2021. The public were invited to respond to three questions which included:
In your view, what are the key considerations, including opportunities and risks, associated with a potential Covid-status certification scheme?
The Consultation Institute – an organisation promoting high-quality public consultation – criticised the Government on a number of levels, not least for being vague about the feedback process and whether this was simply a paper exercise. What isn’t vague is the public’s response: over 52,000 people responded (a high number for such an appeal), of which most were very much against the introduction. It was a message to the Government so strong that, on September 12th 2021, in a BBC News interview Health Secretary Sajid Javid confirmed that plans for vaccine passports had been scrapped: “We shouldn’t be doing things for the sake of it”, he said. Prior to this, Michael Gove had stated on Sky News as far back as December 2020 that “I certainly am not planning to introduce any vaccine passports and I don’t know anyone else in Government who is.” Yet then the Government introduced them anyway at the end of 2021, before scrapping them in January 2022.
In March 2021 a decision was made by the U.K. Health Secretary to hand over delivery of the Covid Pass programme to NHSX. This is a joint unit which brings together teams from Department of Health, NHS England and NHS Improvement to promote the use of digital technology in care.
In April 2022, an Invitation to Tender (ITT) was issued by NHSX, and a Danish company called Netcompany Ltd won the £18m bid to: “Deliver the NHS Covid Pass App live service including operational management, incident management and support, and app development services.”
In simple terms, all your personal health data will be consolidated in the NHS App which will become the single point of interaction between the user and the Government. It will take data from a wide variety of sources including GP Services, NHS Trusts, Test & Trace etc. and interface with similar projects in at least 70 countries around the world including those in the EU. Although the current emphasis is on Covid, the ability to incorporate many other aspects of an individual’s health profile and link those to a centralised ‘command and control’ system is very much part of the plan.
Through a Freedom of Information request, I obtained a copy of the scope of works for the project (Department for Health & Social Security, Specification for Covid Pass Delivery Partner, Reference: C50516). On page nine is the following operational requirement:
Domestic Pass for use in Voluntary and Mandatory Settings.
The Government may introduce a mandatory Covid Pass to access high risk venues if the data suggests further measures are necessary to protect the NHS. In preparation for this eventuality, we have built the changes to support two levels of domestic passes. The functionality will be toggled off until required. This enables a quick response if/when the Government invokes a mandate. If a citizen is fully vaccinated, medically exempt or has been in a clinical trial, they will be eligible for an ‘all venues’ (mandatory) pass. If a citizen only has natural immunity or negative test results, they will only be eligible for a ‘limited venues’ (voluntary) pass.
The covering letter from Maggie Throup, the MP fronting the programme, states: “Although domestic certification is no longer being used in the U.K., the NHS Covid Pass still requires updating and maintaining for travel purposes.” This is plainly at odds with the operational requirement quoted above, where far more than travel purposes are envisaged.
Despite a public consultation which emphatically rejected the concept and the Government having scrapped the scheme at the start of the year, it is very obviously preparing to introduce it, if needed, at the flick of a switch.

Not really a surprise, they didn’t spend all that money for nothing. However I resigned myself to them being used at some point a while ago and I know which side I am on. And I am fully prepared for the consequences.
It never ceases to amaze me how few people seem to understand the idea of the thin end of the wedge and how much impact it has on their lives.

The EU has been planning for vaccine passports since 2016, with a delivery date of 2022.
The British Establishment was obviously fully on board with this programme since it pre-dates Brexit. We are still significantly aligned to the EU so it’s hardly surprising to find that the British Government will be complying with the EU’s policy.
They will have to create an alternative to an APP, since not everyone owns a smart phone and the very people who need to access the NHS most frequently are the ones least likely to be computer-literate and own one.
They are champing at the bit, especially those who would profit from it all. With any luck, a large majority would declare themselves exempt, or take their trade elsewhere.
Vaccine / health passports – who really benefits?
https://www.dr-rath-foundation.org/2021/04/european-plans-for-vaccine-passports-were-in-place-20-months-prior-to-the-pandemic-coincidence/
They are carrying on with their plans, regardless…
People should start joining the dots, the majority leading the push for this agenda have talked openly about population reduction and are eugenicists.
The UK has pioneered the state spying on its citizens for decades. This comes as no surprise, I binned my smartphone in 2020. Haven’t looked back. There’s a company in the USA that specialises in scarves, clothing and masks that disrupt cameras. They’ll soon become a fashion accessory! Plus the old ‘chav’ uniform of hoodie and baseball cap will return.
Assuming the RPTB have yet to completely nobble the ONS etc. (see Professor Norman Fenton re this) it will be interesting to see precisely how the new “bi-variant booster vaccine” is rolled out and more importantly, the percentage of takers.
Make no mistake, the only reasons vax passports aren’t yet mandatory is, thankfully the resistance of the 19 million plus refuseniks and the simple fact that the jabs are, on any cost/benefit analysis, dangerous.
How dangerous remains to be fully seen.
I’ve never had the jab: the NHS gave up contacting me eventually. My parents had the originals and one booster and have said they won’t have any more. We’ve know of a couple of people in our wider circle of friends of family and friends of friends who have either died (one of a heart attack age 38 and another in her 50s died in agony from blood clots all over her body within days of the jab, both previously healthy) or been permanently injured by the drugs (an 18-year-old trainee nurse was severely injured by the first jab and can’t have any more ever, meaning she can no longer work in the profession.) Allegedly they’re going to come after the unjabbed in a campaign starting later this month. We’ll have to see whether it’s been postponed in the last few months…
‘If a citizen only has NATURAL immunity or negative test results, they will only be eligible for a ‘limited venues’ (voluntary) pass.’
This says it all: natural immunity is more effective and longer lasting than waning vaccinated immunity. It is all about controlling the masses and ensuring Big Pharma makes plenty of money in the process.
The purpose of continuing with the injections, which are no longer needed and even if they did work, is not protection from illness but promotion of death.
We have to stop blathering on about a cold virus which has been and gone and accept that government focus now is on killing people.
The covid virus has morphed into a deadly injection virus. That is what we need protection from.
Moderna are rolling out a six in one injection, completely untested, and why, because it will make it nearly impossible to blame the forthcoming deaths on the injections – too many variables.
Morning all…
An update from Professor Norman Fenton on the supposed ‘updates’ on the Government website in regard to vaccination of pregnant women….

Apologies…wrong thread…! Sausage fingers!
I remember there was a job advert for a deputy lead director – covid pass – pulled in June 2022 after questions raised in parliament about it. Savage Jabber was allegedly unaware of it.
https://web.archive.org/web/20220608081858/https://www.civilservicejobs.service.gov.uk/csr/jobs.cgi?jcode=1791653
Yes, they have been carrying on regardless, determined to have a ‘covid pass’ in place by hook or by crook.
It’s just a social credits app by the back door.
“remember there was a job advert for a deputy lead director – covid pass – pulled in June 2022”
ellie, the post was subsequently filled.
I didn’t know – I didn’t follow it up, to be honest. I’m not at all surprised, they are grand masters in the dirty tricks brigade. Accomplished liars.

BB – what a bloody eye-opener.
It most certainly is.
Power, once acquired, WILL be used and will never voluntarily be given up.
The vaccine passport is the control mechanism, the civil service in most countries positively salivate at the prospect of locking ppl they disapprove of out from society.
Let’s be clear – £37,000,000,000+ wasn’t spent on phone calls, min wages and dodgy tests. But it did buy a world-class surveillance system. The Stasi-esque NHSX is sheltering – unaccountable and out of sight – in the bosom of the sacred NHS.
Its purpose is the deployment of personal digital biometric IDs.
For your own safety, of course.
In the same week that the weather turns colder the health-harms of fuel poverty will be linked into the repurposed NHS app. The NHS app will be a pathway to the issuing of ‘energy vouchers’ to those on welfare and pensions. These vouchers will be redeemable against fuel bills, including your care home, your family or neighbour – to keep us all safe (i.e.warm).
And where have we heard that before?
Non-welfare people will be able buy these vouchers a heavy discount – as long as they get that digital NHSX ID and submit to its controls on how you then ‘spend’ your voucher on energy ONLY.
And following this ‘brilliantly effective and successful Govt vouchering scheme’ expect similar schemes for food and fossil fuels.
In this way – linking the distribution and spending of personal vouchers – the money we call CASH will be replaced by a programmable digital currency.
The people will willingly sacrifice the freedom of cash and choice to just keep warm ands fed in mild, abundant Britain. The new fudalism.
Beware vouchers!
Beware personal digital IDs.
“Let’s be clear – £37,000,000,000+ wasn’t spent on phone calls, min wages and dodgy tests.”
Well I had worked that out early doors. And I remain convinced that a large portion of the money was spent on road / traffic measures which will allow for vehicle tracking. Some of the money has been used on ‘track and trace’ but not in the ways we have been led to believe.
But people on pensions are the people least likely to have a smart phone. My mother, my elderly neighbours….none of them have internet or phones.
If they do this, there will be chaos. It’s too mad, surely, even for our government? we don’t even have mobile phone coverage in our village so goodness knows how they think it would work.
The vast majority of people without smart phones will be older people who are unlikely to be a threat to TPTB so they will be ignored – literally. If they fall ill, tough. If they die they help towards government targets.
To be blunt – the unconnected will be disconnected and permanently.
My feeling is that it’s the infrastructure (and the funding to implement it) that was desired, and that this relates to the imminent introduction of CBDCs. Once the system is in place, and the public is primed to accept conditional entry to venues and constant surveillance it will be much easier to install this new type of economy.
However the ‘Covid-19’ enterprise fraud cover story was so unbelievably weak and stupid that the wheels fell off, and it began to look absurd. They’ll be some scratching of heads about how to proceed now. They had one chance to gain the initiative, and ended up looking ridiculous and back at the drawing board. My guess is they’ll go for ‘cyber attack’ next.
Yes of course they kept the vaccine pass. I must have been fooling myself big time. For a brief moment in the summer it seemed like all their plans were going to be ripped to shreds, stuffed down the pants of Javid, Johnson, Patel et al and set on fire but unfortunately that never happened. So despite all thousands of reams of evidence, all the weight of knowledge and understanding about the true dangers or, rather, non-dangers of Covid and the very real dangers of the vaccine itself over two and a bit long exhausting years, despite all the science that actually shows a completely different picture, all the eminent scientists and doctors speaking out, all the evidence of vaccine harms, nothing has persuaded them that anything is amiss with the vaccines. No doubt at all. The good ship Lollipop – or Vaxalot – sails on, on calm steady seas with nary a hint of a breeze to ruffle the waters of absolute certainty. Meanwhile all the shock troops, the Covid Marshalls in Waiting, the mask manufacturers, BIg Pharma, all the cohorts of believers and cheerleaders will fall into lockstep again come the next vari-airy-ant this autumn or winter. Well, carry on if you must, but I’ve got a train to catch – it’s called the Reality Express and it’s not stopping at any stations on your line…

Bureaucratic opportunism. That’s what it looks like in the DHSC paper published above. In various departments, fashions come and go. E.g. a few years ago, there was a push to develop car engines that would churn out less than 100g/km of carbon dioxide, which resulted in zero road tax. I bought one of those in 2013 – I still had to “pay” tax every year, except that it was zero; I’m not joking!
Farage hit the nail on the head. All governments are into short termism(vote winning). No long term strategic planning, hence the energy crisis. So I wouldn’t worry.. Everytime the public push back, the government about- face.

I think there can be no doubt that covid passes will return this winter. When they do, the propaganda will be ‘anyone can get it, even if you’ve had it before, and anyone can spread it, even if not unwell’. People in general will support the covid pass’s return.
The facts, meanwhile, will remain (1) that at most 20% of the population has been susceptible to any variant, (2) no one has been at mortal risk from covid unless age-frail or already seriously ill, and (3) no evidence or rationale whatever exists for saying covid can be transmitted by people not coughing, sneezing and running a temperature.
Now its been fully established that the vaccines do not prevent spread of Covid, Why is our government wasting money on this?
