You keep using this term vaccinated, when it’s patently NOT a vaccine being administered.
Don’t they get it? If we’ve not had it by now, we never will. They are flogging a dead horse.
Indeed. It’s the sheep they need to concentrate on, as they easily get distracted.
“Distracted “…on their way to the slaughter house.
Perhaps they need a good flogging to drive some sense into them?
When I read/hear that word – AND ”cases” – I have a Pavlovian response.
Note to self – order some more crockery…
Yes, they persist in their lying, increasingly fatuous and ignorant narrative …but then look who is in charge …… the Johnson !
All they want is to push and coerce the vax – nothing to do with health or Covid or ‘safety’. But we now know “Jabs Can Kill” – never forget!
Purveyors of the narrative are unable to relinquish the narrative.
Well they can’t, it would mean admitting they were wrong.
All together now:
“Well, They WOULD say this, wouldn’t they!”
Hard for for the normal person in the street to admit they are wrong. Nigh on impossible for a politician.
Let them be buried with it!
Being first in line for hassle-free travel is the ‘reward’ for all those who took part in the game of Russian Roulette. This is a public relations exercise. The testing bollocks will quietly be dropped for the unvaccinated as well within weeks.
But the international travel requirements to show proof of perpetual booster will remain.
Forcing the vax pass on people, one way or another, was always a core feature of this fraud.
I thought this initially but now am starting to wonder. I know so many pro vaccine friends who are not getting the booster and are starting to question the narrative. Omicron has put a proper spanner in the works for Gates et al.
Once fear level drops their eyes can be opened?
Blind Faith is a wonderful thing!
Michie will be busy working on next psy-op angle.
A “Tory” Prime Minister in thrall to a Marxist Leninist Feminist Revolutionary Castro/Corbyn supporter – who would have thought it?
Mitchie. Is there a reason why these people are all so bloody UGLY?
It is their ‘dark soul’ showing through!
Gates and his cronies ignore nature at their peril – in this case how our immune systems have allowed us to co-exist with viruses for thousands of years years. Nature always wins in the long run. Gates et al are the modern day Dr Frankenstein. Read GMO Myths and Truths to learn how, despite the hype, not a single promise of GMO foods has been realised, apart from sales of pesticides used to produce them, but endless environmental damage continues to be wreaked.
that’s how i knew too fairly soon into the plandemic having read seeds of destruction and watched food inc years ago,
“I know so many pro vaccine friends who are not getting the booster”
You mean who ‘said’ they are not getting the booster(s). Will they really want to see their ‘Vaxx Passes’ become invalid?
OK, for old people who don’t want to travel abroad any more, they can let their Vaxx Passes slip…. and just hope that they’re not going to be needed to get into shops, or other places.
So far, this just smacks of cosmetic re-arranging of the chairs.
All that matters is that rules continue to be made and changed, the more capricious the better. The public is kept in a state of suspense and captivity.
How bloody patronising! I know many ”old people” who have been longing to get ”abroad” again – whether for pleasure or to visit children and grandchildren.
If they can stand by their principles, then good for them! If they can’t, then I think we might understand why.
As for ”going into shops” then let’s hope they have neighbours more charitable than you.
We don’t control what other countries ask for, but our Government could be fighting it.
Precisely. During the Cold War we could not stop the soviets censoring the press, imprisoning dissidents, banning protests etc, but we condemned it. We didn’t COPY it!
Well we’ve made up for that now!
That would make political sense yes. Whether the vaccine zealots inside the Establishment are ready to give up the vaccine passports remains to be seen.
They’re not vaccines and they’re not passports
For us “unvaccinated”, the requirement when entering or returning to this country is not just testing.
My life long policy of standing back and watching which way the wind was blowing has served me well again.
And me! Unless a medical procedure is years old I will risk nature
King Log vs King Stork. I have always procrastinated as much as possible. Why do something until you absolutely must? Very often when you DO act you find out eventually you shouldn’t have done. I prefer to sit down with a good scotch and a book and wait for all the shit to collapse.
Right now nor I, my wife, or my kids are jabbed. None of us are dead. So far I’m calling that a win.
“The testing bollocks will quietly be dropped for the unvaccinated as well within weeks.”
There’s no reason to drop it for ‘the unvaxxed’ – they can keep this game going forever. All we can really do to measure it all, is to see how many people take the 3rd ‘booster’, and the 4th… and who gets to keep their ‘Vaxx Passes’ valid.
This is perhaps the only test – as every day goes by, the final date of validity for these passes approaches. Will people be keeping their ‘Vaxx Passes’ valid… as it looks like the only way to do that is to keep taking the jabs.
The so-called vax passports, if they are intended to be Social Credit Passports by stealth, require 100% take up. So if the number of ‘unvaccinated’ remains at its current level, what are the Govt going to do?
kill the dissidents
Or just give them shitty jobs and cut their benefits.
“Untermenchen” what would you badge them with so that the Vaxxed ( the Walking Dead) people can keep ‘appropriate’ Social Distance like the Nazis did with the Jews?
A Yellow ( medieval plague warning colour) UV?
I was pointing out what could be likely to happen, not what I wished would happen. You seem to have got hold of the wrong end of the stick this time.
I generally agree with your posts, by the way.
No I haven’t – I understood that – I was just taking the point further into the darkness!
We all know what a “slippery slope” leads to!
The Government doesn’t need to do anything, other than keep on punishing the ‘unvaxxed’ whilst allowing the ‘vaxxed’ to have life a bit easier.
I don’t see why 100% should come into this. The ‘unvaxxed’ can have their ‘Social Credit Scores’ but they’ll just have to use their points at home, and not abroad. Why go to Biarritz when there’s Blackpool?
I do think some kind of ‘social credit score / carbon footprint score’ (or whatever) will be coming along, but maybe not just yet. The ‘Vaxx Pass’ is all that’s needed to keep us all under control.
What are they going to do?
Hold people down and force vaccinate them…if they die on the spot, quickly shovel them into a ditch out of sight of the cameras?
Just a suggestion.
I expect they will be preparing the next crisis to frighten even the unjabbed into accepting digital IDs – climate-related disasters, the complete collapse of the financial system, fake alien invasion etc etc. It might be a rocky ride!
Just design a new deadly variant for which the vaccine is actually effective, then release it to target the unvaccinated. You just need to do it once. If an impressive number of unvaccinated die from it, unlike from covid, the success of all future vaccination campaigns will be virtually ensured. Whether/when it will be done is just a simple matter of technological progress – because there’s billions of dollars in it for the perpetrators.
The plan is clearly a war of attrition. Endless persecution of the unprivileged while the privileged keep rubbing in their face how “stupid” they are.
There’s still the destination’s requirement though. Let’s try going to NZ or Canada…..
Let’s hope you’re right!
This is going to piss off those who reluctantly got boosters no end ha ha ha ha ha!
Sure I had a stroke but it saved me taking a lateral flow test.
And you get placed on the plane first (even though the wheelchair is a bit of a pain)
“Sure I had a stroke but it saved me taking a lateral flow test.”
No – it’s 2 PCR tests for the ‘unvaccinated’ plus 10 days quarantine – unless you test ‘positive’ and quarantine continues.
Whether you choose to skip quarantine or not is your choice/risk.
It’s blackmail – take the jabs or be punished. Mafia tactics – protection money. Give us your money or we “won’t be able to protect you” (from ourselves).
Johnson has a ‘Masters’ in “pissing people off” -women especially ( it followed on from his “First” in Lying! ).
Ah fuck it I’ve given up on this shit show. Head clown pork-pie BoJo should be deposed just for this.
Talking of which…there has been drip-drip PR saying that only “extracts” from the Gray report will be released, or maybe a summary, or maybe the document but not the attachments.
Well that’s f***ing funny, because the oh so contrite Johnson promised the Commons that he would answer questions about the report. MPs including Starmer can hardly question him about it usefully unless they have seen it including its attachments.
Typical government whitewashing! He’s guilty on all counts!
And many more we don’t yet know about!
Really? Zahawi was on the radio this morning saying that it would all be published. In the interests of transparency, you see.
People may be ‘vaccinated’ but they are not inoculated.
It’s time to start again. To hell with Johnson and co. We are better than this. I look forward to mass gaol time for certain people with surnames beginning with F, G, J, W and V.
The trouble is that at least 80% of the voting public always vote Tory or Labour.
Like those red wall bell ends, they thought they were voting for a change by electing the Tories, there is no hope with these retards.
Ferguson/Fauci, Gates, Johnson, Whitty, Valance?
Boris and his Cabinet need to prosecuted for crimes against humanity, coercing people to take a rushed experimental injection is beyond disgusting.
Have no fear – the ‘Alpha Male Assemble’ will be kicking ass soon!

Where are the effin lawsuits and lawyers?!
This should be a shoo-in, unless the UK has gone full Banana Republic.
The latter.
But not just the UK. The entire western world.
No money in it ( yet) Guv…. but wait for the massive claims for vaccine injury and death to start gaining momentum though.
Named individuals can be sued personally and Class Actions are the way forward!
When the £100,000s – start to appear, so will the Lawyers!
Then there is always “Malfeasance in Public Office”!
How are law claims going to work when there is no-liability conferred by law on the manufacturers etc.? Fraud may vitiate all but it can be hard to prove and does it annul statute?
Sorry David, but did you see the establishment takedown they other day by the BBC of Mark Sexton’s incredible work of getting a crime no from the Met police – dismissed in a matter of words by referring to it as “antivaxxer activists”? It doesn’t bode well.
The fucking lawyers are too busy stopping illegal migrunts being deported.
“Where are the effin lawsuits and lawyers?!”
Is the penny dropping yet?
By the time they go on holiday, for many double vaccinated people, it will be nearly or over a year since since they had their 2 injections. It is already looking very silly to pretend that 2 injections over a year ago are having any great effect on a respiratory virus. This does rather beg the question at to whether they are going to wait until all the holidays are booked and then change the rules to 3 injections? In that way people will either have to get a booster or lose their holiday.
Johnson did say at a presser in December that the definition of fully vaccinated would be changed to three jabs at some point.
Confirmed (allegedly) in this article: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/01/24/self-isolation-unvaccinated-travellers-scrapped-time-half-term/
Nudge, nudge, nudge…
Yeah …rule changes in mid-game – what’ s not to like?
Anyone remember the footage of Porker Johnson, pushing a young lad , one-third his size into the mud during a “friendly” Junior Ruby practice?
An Eton Education shows!
“Stay home and stay immune Healthy” could be a new slogan for the English Tourist Board!
The EU ‘Covid Pass’ was valid for 12 months after the first 2 jabs – I think it is now 9 months. It does seem to be a matter of getting the 3rd jab (and then the 4th, 5th, etc.) to keep the ‘Covid/Vaxx Pass valid’.
I think only some kind of civil war, or good old-fashioned punch-up, is going to get rid of all this shite. But so very few are interested in that, and the authorities know it, and so here we are in our current situation. Control by Vaxx Pass. There is no real indication that this is ever going to stop. Any ‘trouble’ and they’ll bring out another ‘variant of concern’.
https://stm.fi/en/the-covid-19-passport
From the link below it states: “The COVID-19 vaccination certificate is valid for 12 months.”
https://www.kanta.fi/en/web/guest/covid-19-certificate-faq
The current requirement for “unvaccinated” people entering or returning to Britain isn’t just testing – it’s 10 days of isolation.
It’s not “quarantine” when you have to stay in your house or garden but you can have a dozen of your mates in every day for a party who can then go wherever they like.
It’s a form of punishment that is meant to encourage “vaccination”.
When the government make an announcement, hopefully later today, we’ll find out whether this position will change soon or not.
Yes, and what an utterly ridiculous business that 10 day isolation is. My unvaccinated partner arrived in England recently. During the 10 days we shared everything (I’ll spare you the details), and yet there was nothing to say that I couldn’t go to the pub with my mates. I’m thoroughly fed up with all these dystopian rules that damage our quality of life for no purpose whatsoever. It’s long past time to put all this bullshit behind us and start holding the perpetrators to account.
It’s called “detention”.
I’m not in the business of defending the government, but given the pressure they’ve put on the population to get vaccinated, in order to avoid an immediate riot by the double and tripled jabbed, they need to, in the short term at least, make it appear as if being vaccinated bring some advantages over being a “disobedient, stupid, misogynistic anti-vaxxer).
I expect the requirements placed on the unvaccinated will be quietly dropped in a few months time. After all they are completely indefensible on health grounds and sooner or later the government would lose a court case over it.
(That is assuming the UK government really has decided to unwind the pandemic response in its entirety, and give up on vaccine passports, something which I’m not entirely convinced of yet).
you forgot “racist”.
Quite right, sorry it’s so hard to keep up. I suppose “granny killer” must also be in there somewhere.
It reminds me of David Cameron calling Brexiteers “fruitcakes, loonies and closet racists”, which didn’t turn out so well for him.
Call me Dave got turned over by “fruitcakes, loonies and closet racists”, well played Dave, well played.
…. and selfish, irresponsible, neo-nazi, alt-right extremist deplorables ….
Well, he was describing Jacob Rees Mogg pretty accurately!
and climate change denying……
Whats “ whats climate change”
Its what happens when you don’t keep up to date with your
vaccinesdeath jabs. Just waiting for them to make that claim any day now.Since when in the last 2 years has the completely indefensible been grounds for not doing something?
This is of course a reward to the jabbed for compliance.
What there is no evidence of any kind whatsoever, at least so far, is that the UK will ever soften on vaccine requirements for travellers. Quite the opposite, I would say.
“Expect” nothing good from Johnson and you will not be disappointed
Your name is Carrie Symonds and I claim my £10.
“That is assuming the UK government really has decided to unwind the pandemic response in its entirety, and give up on vaccine passports, something which I’m not entirely convinced of yet.”
I really can’t see England/the UK standing up against the rest of the world as regards Vaxx Passes (call it ‘Covid paperwork/certificates’ to cover it all).
I find it quite terrifying to see how much has gone into making them already.
And they’re probably made by cheap labour ‘coders’ in India who have flogged all of your personal details to the Chinese.
Read the German interview with their guy in charge of “defending the constitution”, actually an intel oversight board; he calls the unvaxxed “enemies of the state”.
Speaking for myself, I agree.
Certain kinds of “State” deserve “Enemies”.
Yes they do! Fat Bozo and Savage Jabbit claim it still.
Nikki Kanini, or Panini, or whatever her name is, said it on Saturday while commenting about the NHS jab mandate.
Still playing games with us – this is by no means over!
Concentrate on the damage being caused by the injections, not their stupid, childish and pointless regulations.
“A trip to Corfu for a week, or a working, undamaged immune system for life”?
Still your choice.
Exactly. People are choosing to be injected, no matter how much propaganda they pump out. The way out of this for everyone is to exercise choice.
Logic has long since left the building.
It was never in the country, let alone the building
The reward for the compliant.
And the non-compliant can continue to sit on the naughty step and think about their behaviour, while the rest are outside playing.
Everyone should stop travelling, in solidarity with the vaccine-free. Some hope though!
I don’t think the boycott should be done in solidarity with the unvaccinated or anyone else. Rather, it should be done as a matter of moral principle.
As someone who had to experience the horrors of the hotel quarantine gulag. Shame on this government. I hope Johnson is hanged, drawn and quartered and his body parts sent to four quarters of the planet.
Was it a ‘Government approved’ ‘hotel’? I expect ‘Government approved’ means Javid visited to make sure the pillows were fluffed and there were no stains on the carpet.
Quarantine hotel in Kenilworth – the first 2 minutes tells me all I need to know – just as I thought.

“nice to see the taxpayer is providing employment to half of Africa and the Indian Sub Continent in our security industry....”
Holiday Inn. Last place I’d ever go for a fucking holiday. Twats all of them.
Holiday Inns are kips at the best of times. I suspect they are many times worse under this “new normal”.
They had to excuse the double-shot but not boosted because, if the double-shot were not exempt that would mean 40% of the population would require
pantomimetesting to travel. The real % may be significantly higher but those are the official gov stats. Unfortunately for the single-shot, they’re not classed as “fully vaccinated” and they have to stay behind after school for detention with the rest.I also suspect the numbers are nothing like the ones published. Probably plenty initially double jabbed. But the boosters less so. Including boosters would dramatically reduce holidays booked perhaps.
It is remarkable how keen governments worldwide are to ignore the science.
It is almost as if they don’t want their electorate to realise the negative consequences of their hubris-driven policy mistakes over the last 12 months.
They’ve been ignoring scientific evidence since the spring of 2020, starting with the actual danger posed by the new coronavirus, to masks, to tests, to social distancing all the way through to jabs and vax passports.
The remarkable thing would be if they started to act on the basis of good scientific evidence.
Bonkers ruling, so there no need for the booster then, ever? At least they can’t blame the unvax for bringing in new scarients into the Country! (Not that tests are accurate anyway).
Of course they’ll add the booster requirement in due course.
A bit of carrot, a bit of stick, a bit more carrot…
Jabs and vax passports are here to stay forever, make no mistake. There is nothing in the announcements of the last week, ten days that isn’t consistent with the promotion of jabs and vax passports.
Pfizer’s new shiny specially repurposed anti Omicron booster – you must get that. 98 per cent effective.
Same sh*t, differenet angle!
Gates must have been on the ‘phone again!
It implies unvaccinated can travel, with a test, but where could we even go! lol
Evidence? You mean more ‘mumbo jumbo’
This must be the ‘punishment’ phase.
Mexico!
and Croatia, Slovenia, Portugal, Greece, Turkey and a few others… reward these wonderful places

(Slovenia requires a RVT for day to day stuff – just use your initiative)
Greece? The birthplace of democracy currently fining old people for exercising their human right not to take part in a medical experiment? No thanks.
and only a very few of the locations on that list [thanks Major Panic BTW for the link) DON’T restrict other venues or services to the jabbed only when you are there, even if you are prepared to go through the PCR/antigen testing rigmarole and passenger locator form BS
like I said, use you’re initiative, these are box tickers, we had no problems in recent trip to Slovenia using UK domestic covid pass and screenshots of things – just fcukin do it – restaurants, bars, ski resorts just want you’re business but need to show they are ticking bullshit boxes
And by supporting such “box tickers” you are making sure that the current regime never ends.
Yes…”compliance” hands them victory.
you’ve got to get on with life, do stuff, make things happen, work around obstacles – stop finding excuses to be chicken shits
How many days have you been ‘in isolation’ after your trip? Remind us. Sounds like fun!
“stop finding excuses to be chicken shits”
“I daren’t leave the house in case Test & Trace find out and fine me.”
A the resident retard spouting drivel again. I would have been out last thursday if my 5 day early release hadn’t been positive. I also got 5 days excellent days skiing blue sky on every day – fabulous and well worth the effort – oh and I am also naturally immune for life now. Anyway you keep talking bollocks as if you have any authority you drivel on about, keep hiding from life and avoid mirrors you pointless coward
technically possible I guess, but a complete 3 ring circus of hoops to jump though!
Seems nowhere is possible without a smartphone, and a local address, so that’soverland travel out the window too.
Do you remember when Boris was ill with covid and hospitalised, he came back looking dog rough.
I have it on good authority that he was actually on a week long bender (not in hospital at all), he over did the cocaine and looked so rough due to an epic hangover.
Had he been told what was expected of him now
We have passports already.
we just cannot use them in any meaningful way, like the purpose for which they were originally intended
Some good news at last!
“Self-isolation for unvaccinated travellers to be scrapped in time for half-term – Holiday boost as Transport Secretary confirms people who have not been jabbed no longer need to quarantine for 10 days”
Let’s hope Shapps does actually say this.
Edit: note that this says “UK”. It’s only an article in a newspaper rather than a government statement, but Nicola “Fake Marriage” Sturgeon had better not DARE retain the requirement of 10 days’ isolation…
getting rid of the punishment quarantine is extremely good news, and the cost of punishment testing is reduced to £63. But this is entirely political with not an ounce of science involved as the vaccine makes people just as, or more, likely to catch and transmit the virus. (Having just ‘recovered’ from the deadly virus i can confirm that the slightly croaky voice was a little bit irritating for a short while)
Anyways – In a just world i would line up all responsible for these crimes and put my forehead through each of their corrupt faces
“Buy your PCR tests from Government approved Honest Faisal!”
Anyway – could easily be a trap. They can make sure the PCR tests of the ‘unvaxxed’ can show a ‘positive’ just to be awkward. Before you get on the plane if they’ve had ‘the nod’.
LOL – a retard and a fantasist
Slightly off topic, I emailed the following to the Prime Minister over the weekend, using the ‘email the Prime Minister’ contact form on the .gov website. Imagine my surprise when it was acknowledged this afternoon. I’m looking forward to the response, although I already know it will be the usual weaselly mealy mouthed dissembling obfuscatory double speak that we usually see from the civil service.
Prime Minister,
I would like you to explain to me why NHS healthcare professionals who have been trained in many cases by the NHS, to work and therefore exercise their clinical judgement in the NHS are now under threat of dismissal (without any severance pay or other standard payments or the ability to receive unemployment support if we are to believe everything that your government officials are telling us) for exercising their clinical judgement by refusing your mandatory so called vaccinations, which incidentally have emergency use authorisation only, no marketing approval and no long term safety data, and with widespread evidence of severe or even fatal cardiovascular adverse events, especially in young men.
I hope you saw the coverage of the anti vaccines protests over the weekend, & the healthcare workers uniforms being returned to Downing Street by the same healthcare workers you were clapping so enthusiastically just last year.
Sincerely,
Name and address supplied
They are still maintaining the illusion that covid is a thing, and punishing unjabbed for knowing it is patent bullkrap.
Pathetic.
Totally! I was just writing my post below as you were posting. It’s all just made up rubbish!
Yup!
Totally made up garbage! “Vaccinated”? Not “vaccinated”? Makes no difference!

The whole thing is utter bollocks!
Mumbo Jumbo Johnson ( ‘a rubbish hair cut makes me a serious politician’ !) was all over GBNews like a rash just now – blustering on with all matters and manner of crap and lies.
It looks like he has been told by his US Big State CIA minders to ‘Big Up’ war with Russia – can anyone even make this sh*t up?
Johnson playing “Blair “to Senile Joe’s “Bush” – history repeats, as pure farce!
It makes you weep!
We need rid of him and his whole “excess baggage” worthless Cabinet – plenty of old Tories on the back benches -and we have Frost and Baker to make Team Leaders.
A purge of the Gates-Davos- Biden Clique is long overdue.
New picture of Johnson with his toy mask and syringe due out soon? Remember Jesus still wants you to have the jab!
2008: Israeli-armed Georgia provokes war with Russia, loses.
2020: Israeli-armed Azerbaijan attacks the Armenian enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh. Unfortunately Russia does not fulfil its treaty obligation to defend Armenia, and Azerbaijani forces conquer most of NK, razing villages, torturing prisoners and posting the film to “social media”, destroying churches, and expelling the population whom they claim had no right to be there (despite the presence of Armenian churches dating back to the Middle Ages). (Cf. the genocide against Armenians in 1915. Anyone who doesn’t know the meaning of what Azerbaijan did in 2020 should ask any Armenian.)
December 2021: Ukrainian defence minister Oleksii Reznikov visits Israel.
Anything that can be said about gangsters in Russia can also be said about the Ukraine…in spades.
Look out for statements by Jens Stoltenberg, secretary-general of NATO. He is a complete loony – a follower of Rudolf Steiner.
NATO is what the US uses when they can’t get a resolution through the UN Security Council. They used it for example in Afghanistan. That was nothing to do with defending any allies against attack, and nor is Ukraine.
You seem to have it in for Israel, which is currently doing itself more harm that Syria, Jordan, Egypt et al. have managed to do in over 70 years.
Any odds offered on Biden’s face -saving 8,000 multi-gendered Woke vetted jabbed and demoralised US Doughboys against 100,000, now professional, Russian soldiers defending Mother Russia from False Flag operators and mercenary CIA stooges?
This’ll get revised by Easter for everyone. The Tory donors who run the fly-by-night ‘testing’ companies will soon wrap them up when there isn’t a guaranteed massive income.
Because it’s about getting to digital IDs via health passes….
This is simply apartheid by stealth.
The following terms should be used:
“Apartheid” was a propaganda word used BY the South African regime of 1948-1991 (during which every prime minister was a Calvinist). An accurate term would be “white supremacist”.

Aid workers ready to help Tonga, despite Covid concerns
Tonga Government: “Better to let our people die of starvation or thirst, or some really nasty disease…
…as long as it’s NOT Covid!”
FFS!
There’s no vaccine for stupid.
This has been the real problem for two years.
The government certainly believe idiocy is a virtue, quite when they will exhaust their supply of stupid ideas I suppose is anyone’s guess. I only wish they could come up with them every 10 minutes, at least then we might have a vague idea of how/when it’s going to end.
Worse case scenario, no one ever leaves this planet and we all die of utter boredom.
‘Holidaymakers who are double-vaccinated’
Please, there is not one ‘double vaccinated’ person on the planet
Indeed!
How can anyone be ‘vaccinated’. with products that do not ‘vaccinate’ ie protect against infection (but have been known officially to kill people – 2,000 at least in the UK alone !)
1,932 deaths and 1,414,293 injuries following COVID19 experimental “vaccines” in the U.K.
“Rare adverse events are defined as those occurring in 1/1000 to 1/10,000 patients”
Thus 0.1% – 0.01% of a vaccinated population experiencing adverse events is considered rare.
The UK currently works out as having 2.7% of the Covid vaccinated population (1 or more doses) experiencing adverse events. This is using official MHRA figures.
Covid vaccine adverse events are therefore not rare, even without considering the under-reported nature of vaccine adverse events.
And if you go chasing rabbits, and you know you’re going to fall Update – January 24th 2022
https://hughboone.substack.com/p/and-if-you-go-chasing-rabbits-and
The MHRA itself claims that only 10% of serious adverse reactions are reported:
“But all spontaneous reporting schemes have a problem with numbers: the MHRA itself says that only 10% of serious reactions and 2–4% of all reactions are reported using the Yellow Card Scheme. This means that most iatrogenic morbidity goes unreported. It’s not as if adverse reactions are unusual.”
This was the case before 2020. It is logical to assume that such biases are likely to be amplified in the hysterical atmosphere that the world now finds itself in.
This means that the number of serious adverse events in the UK could be as high as 14,142,930 – 27% of the vaccinated population.
Every single person I know who has been boosted has been ill.
A Medic friend of mine has reported quite a few deaths of people known to him – some friends.
I think this is extremely likely to be the case – don’t tell the BBC though!
The BBC want to make absolutely sure ‘the people’ don’t find out!
I am finding it increasingly hard to credit what I am seeing around me, every day. The publicly available data is damning enough, let alone the educated criticism of knowledgeable experts. I just do not understand how so many cling to? believe the official narrative. It is moving from watching the world as if in a dream to some scifi nightmare. If it weren’t for people like those here on DS, I might think myself going mad.
I agree. It’s as if we’ve slipped into another dimension, isn’t it?
All the information is out there concerning the lack of vaccine efficacy, side effects, etc etc etc, but it’s as if no-one is hearing it or reading it or acting on it. Not just ignored, but sometimes deliberately contradicted.
If it wasn’t so potentially dangerous, it would be fascinating to watch.
We here on DS do at least try to support each other in this Orwellian nightmare.
Group support of the likeminded appears to be the future as the surrounding psychotic dystopia becomes ever more surreal.
“It is moving from watching the world as if in a dream to some scifi nightmare. If it weren’t for people like those here on DS, I might think myself going mad.”
Same here. I sometimes wonder if I am being overly paranoid about the ‘Covid situation’… but then I go inside a shop and see all the face masks and the zombie-like eyes staring out above them and see that this really is a living nightmare. I wish I could be transported back in time to the 1970s/80s/90s where things were, to my mind, normal.
The Austrian TV station RTV showed an interview with Dr Silvia Berendt, a lawyer who worked for the WHO, on 22nd January about recent events.
She highlighted that the WHO reprimanded covid passes for travel, and said isn’t it strange if the WHO issues a statement that suits the narrative the press pick it up and make headlines, if it is a statement in the other direction it gets buried.

excellent – all the big players present
More madness – so as an unvaccinated traveller I will have to take a test to confirm that i do not have the virus – after a negative test I can then travel – however, a vaccinated traveller doesn’t have to test despite the fact that the vaccine does not stop them from catching and spreading the virus and in fact the vaccinated could even spread the virus to me even though I have just tested negative.
I get the feeling this is just government being petulant towards those who dared defy their orders to get jabbed.
Well, yes. They are being spiteful towards people who just won’t do as they are told!
Sort of “smacked legs and sit on the naughty step” sort of mentality.
That’s exactly what it is. Vindictive and spiteful towards those who refuse to play their game. But the game will continue as there is no-one to stop them.
The prime minister of Northrhine-Westphalia (Germany) recently mentioned in a talk show that the reason for the mandatory vaccination is to send a signal to the vaccinated (!) that now the time has come to “deal with the unvaccinated”.
So yes, you are guessing correctly – it is exactly the frame of mind in which these sociopathic scumbags are operating.
It’s a start at least.
maybe they realise there is an argument for not getting vaccinated if vaccinated also need to jump through the same hoops.
Still here, still unvaxxed, still healthy, still a threat.
Ditto….
Exactly. We are a threat to their one weapon, the narrative.
They will NEVER catch up with me.
A few days old, but wtf…?

That’s how the Spanish Inquisition worked. You were tortured until you confessed. But because admissions under torture were not valid in court, the torture was relieved long enough for you to sign the confession, under threat that if you resiled then the torture would come back on harder than before.
It’s marvellous how these people can still hold the principle that submitting against your will is invalid, but will use whatever means it takes to ensure that your will is aligned to that of the torturer.
The thing is, we sort of expect the Germans to behave in an authoritarian manner, but nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition,
LoL.
More proof that we’re better than the other lot – we have a sense of humour, which Guardian types singularly lack.
You can get on the Transports voluntarily or we will shoot you
They will learn to love Big Brother.
Thank you and goodbye
Conservative minister resigns in anger over Covid fraud – BBC News
surely, surely now there must be a lawyer out there who is willing to take a case on for discrimination against the Government. I am sure many of the unvaccinated, and indeed the vaccinated would chip in on this I know I would. Toby can’t you put one of your contacts forward? surely now is the time to strike as this is now blatantly wrong.
The courts are stuffed with collaborators
Did the German courts intervene in the 1930’s or 1940’s…. no, they hung the freedom fighters
“Lord” Theodore Agnew, minister for efficiency and transformation at the Cabinet Office and the Treasury (nice work if you can get it), who is said to have played a “leading role” in the British state’s “vaccination” drive, and who is a notorious “player of both sides of the street” where government contracts are concerned, resigned from the government today. Nothing to do with Partygate, he says. Lol.
Is he related to Spiro Agnew, Richard Nixon’s vice president in the USA, whose middle name was Theodore? (Spiro Agnew is well remembered for sporting a name that is an anagram of “Grow a penis”.)
How can you tell one fraud from the other. the whole of the panicdemic was a fraud!
Interestingly, the places where bookings are rising most are all places that welcome the un-jabbed with minimum fuss!
I’m sure this will not have gone unnoticed in the Mediterranean countries in the EU…
“day two lateral flow tests – which are currently required for fully vaccinated people entering the U.K. – would be ditched, saving a family of four around £120.”
Free LFTs from high street chemists, and yet £30/person from cowboy rip-off merchants ‘approved’ by the Government.
Least bad efficacy against testing positive in the adult age groups with exactly two doses of vaccine around minus 183% according to UKHSA, or nearly three times as likely to test positive as the unvaccinated (based on the raw data)
Where then is the evidence behind this continued restriction on the unvaccinated?
Where is the need to do this? Governments have been running policies for years with no evidence of benefit, and plenty evidence of harm. Climate Change is a classic example…
The dam is breaking slowly…..
“Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, one by one.”
― Charles MacKay, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds
This sets the tone for years to come. There is no way the majority will give a stuff about the rights of the unvaccinated, as said in the article it’ll he viewed as penance for non compliance. The only silver lining is the hope we can continue to exist as citizens in the UK without overly cumbersome discrimination… something that comes without any guarantee.
One senses that the next variant will give the opportunity to bring back every restriction and up the ante too. We are actually quite fortunate to have more time on our hands than our European friends who are being targeted in a much more extreme fashion.
Time is an important weapon as the data is slowly building up and it isn’t looking particularly pretty for mandates…perhaps the bubble will burst…
That’s true up to a point, but there are many double jabbed who have said “enough” and will not get the third jab. And that will only continue if they push more jabs. At which point classifying those with “only” two jabs” or “only” three jabs will push the so-called “unvaccinated” into the majority, making the passports untenable.
Are we suprised that the NWO totalitarian acolytes ignore the statistics provided by the ONS?Insidious ideology, never been about protecting the compliment indoctrinated masses from a malevolently contrived public health emergency! Jab the useless eaters with a hideous cytotoxin and thin the herd out, that’s the fundamental plan along side editable CBDC and neo-feudalism!
Not a conspiracy theory, all been planned in plain sight for decades….but the majority ain’t been looking, “Bread and Circuses”
Depends on the science, in this case psychology. These initiatives are tests to see how the public react.
They typically react emotionally. Few operate on principle and even fewer on facts or data. For most the observed fact that the double jabbed are at best no different from the never-jabbed is not a consideration. What is important is vindication for the effort and sacrifice they imagine the unclean have avoided.
This will be understood by most as a mild financial punishment for unorthodox views that threaten the egos of those who succumbed to the propaganda. We must be punished for not chipping in with some kind of manufactured blitz spirit.
If it backfires, and people object in principle, they can ease off at low cost. If people don’t care and merrily go about booking their holidays they’ll turn the screw a bit harder on the unclean.
They do these tests all the time. One of the earliest was the smoking ban. The country didn’t object, and that gave the green light ever since to endlessly “improve” our lives.
Don’t know if anyone is watching but everyone should go to Rumble sbd watch Ron Johnson’s senate committee offering an alternative view on Co Vid. It’s on now snd it is absolute DYNAMITE. No holds barred. It is all laid bare – early treatment, age stratification, censorship, corruption in efficacy and dangers of the vaccines. If people watch this it is all over! DYNAMITE
is it true that the uk is geting rid of vax passports?. a beacon of hope just like in ww2.
and the u sa soon to join the u k?
meanwhile france is staying true to form collaborating . glad there is the resistance there . i feel like im in the groundhog movie . next russia joins with the uk and the us a?
then nuremberg 2 follows i hope .
It isn’t true.
They have installed the infrsatructure for the vaccine passport, they have dressed it up as an NHS app, for our convenience of course.
. thank you for explaining ,meaning is the way of getting digital passport but they are suppsoedly fine with the ‘ unvaccinated ‘ ?
they a re evil !
why is no one taking this shit to court? This is grossly discriminatory and not supported by a shred of science.
or it is not true a nd they are still going along with everyone must be ‘ vaccinated’ world wide
i can’t tell anymore what is going on if really true they are giving up . i will never give up. glad so many of us non sheep. anyone see washintong dc protest yesterday? not on the ‘ news’ of course
Does anyone know how rigidly the quarantine garbage is being enforced?
A comment I like from elsewhere:
“I’m not an anti-vaxxer. I have never tried to dissuade anyone from having the vaccination. You on the other hand constantly hector and browbeat others into having vaccinations against their will. I support freedom of choice and bodily autonomy, you are a brainwashed pro-vaxxer propagandist. You don’t occupy the moral high ground here Jim.”
In response to this:
“Since when was the drivel posted by some antivaxxers a balanced viewpoint?”
I wonder what would happen if someone was to legally challenge this, all the way from all courts in the country up to Human Rights Tribunal? There should be evidence revealed and so on… Curious it isn’t done yet, or maybe?… Anyone?
It probably won’t get much publicity, that’s for sure. Some might prefer to settle up for damages rather than losing in court. How about the Harassment Act 1997, the Human Rights Act 1998, or the Equalities Act 2010? I’m not a solicitor, but am an experienced litigant re damages claims.
They test for the flu since they’ve never isolated Covid-19. Which makes me wonder how they can tell there is a delta variant. They never isolated the virus but they use a test to show the damage of a solution does on monkey kidney cells then show the cellular debris as proof of the virus. So, they can use this method to claim an UNENDING! amount of variants. A lot of cancers and “viruses” are probably just different forms of parasites. Since the tests can’t differentiate between cold and flu and covid then doesn’t that mean ivermectin cures both the cold and the flu? Welcome to “they’ve been lying to us our entire lives about everything”. Get your Ivermectin while you still can! https://ivmpharmacy.com
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/01/24/self-isolation-unvaccinated-travellers-scrapped-time-half-term/
Britain has become the first major country in the world to spare all unvaccinated travellers self-isolation, as ministers on Monday lifted nearly every restriction for people arriving in the UK.
Grant Shapps announced that unvaccinated travellers will no longer have to quarantine for 10 days, and will instead only have to take a pre-departure test and a day two PCR swab on arrival.
PCR tests sold by ‘Government approved’ cowboys. Backhanders all round!
You forgot ”made in China”. Share profits all round.
Obvious political fraud. Policies like that are crap and not worth following at all. It’s just another con to flog things that many experienced people don’t want.
Evil is as evil does.
Well. WHAT a surprise. Didn’t see that coming, did we?
The title to this piece illustrates that this is just yet more Government manipulative BS.
