The European Parliament has voted to approve an EU Commission proposal to renew the EU Digital Covid Certificate for another year, despite 99% of the responses to the public consultation being opposed. Robert Kogon at Brownstone has more.
The vote was 453 for, 119 against and 19 abstentions.
The certificate regulation had been scheduled to expire on June 30th. Earlier this month, a delegation from the parliament had already reached a “political agreement” with the Commission on renewing the certificate, thus making yesterday’s vote virtually a foregone conclusion.
The certificate regulation was originally adopted in June of last year, ostensibly to facilitate “safe travel” between EU member states. But the EU digital certificate quickly evolved into the model and sometimes infrastructure for the domestic ‘health’ or Covid passes that would serve to restrict access to many other areas of social life over the following year.
The EU has opted to extend the Covid certificate despite the overwhelmingly negative results of a public consultation on the subject that was launched by the European Commission under the heading of “Have Your Say” and that was open to the public from February 3rd to April 8th. The consultation elicited over 385,000 responses – almost all of which appear to be opposed to renewal!
In a letter to the European Ombudsman that the French member of the parliament Virginie Joron posted on her Twitter feed, Joron writes: “I read hundreds of responses at random with my team. I did not find any in favor of extending the QR code [i.e., the digital certificate]. Based on this large survey, it seems obvious that virtually all the responses were negative.”
Getting ready for winter, it seems.
Worth reading in full.

Billy boy has got software and support services to sell plus of course his wide range of fake vax muck.Monkeypoliocovidflu vax anyone?? Of course its safe because Fauci says so lol..
Overwhelmingly negative feedback.
So just who are these European parliamentarians working for?
Democracy? Quest que ce?
Now maybe people will understand why some of us wanted out. You thought Yes Prime Minister was bad? Just imagine a Brussels version!
Not the people that’s for sure !
I suppose the good news from this is that at least some sheep awake, at least a little.
Bad news – just shows how deep the malign influence of TRPTB really is.
Surely the European Parliament members must be primarily concerned with the safety of the gene altering jabs – yet I see no evidence of it.
Just a little digging brings up science like this –

After reading that, nobody in their right mind would have the jab or force it anyone else.
But they have and are intent on forcing even kids to have it.
Beyond evil.
I am horrified after reading this that TPTB are still insisting on jabbing people.
In my view give it a two to three years and all the medical services throughout the world will be overwhelmed with problems that will be related to these jabs.
Bloody scary times we are living in.
Politicians in “Politicians vote to extend/increase/consolidate their own power” shock.
Sometimes I think they have overplayed their hand, and that the last two and a half years mark the beginning of a great awakening to the fact that people in power (“elected” or otherwise) really are not there because they want to make the world a better place for anyone other than themselves.
But I ain’t holding my breath.
I would bet most people would be against the oil and gas sanctions on Russia that sre leading to price hikes, if they asked.
The western world is a bastion of freedom and democracy though. It gets that status by achieving the highly ambitious goal of being marginally better than “other ]places”.
Won’t be using it, won’t be getting the jab and won’t be wearing a mask.
I don’t know where that will get me, but I have made my peace with it and I will accept the consequences.
With you.
Since when has the EU Borg bothered about what the public thinks or wants?
The EU has been planning vaccine passports for years. They aren’t going to meekly give it up just because it’s unpopular with the peasants.
Vaccine passport scheme?the same vaccines that are 100 ineffective and safe causing serious adverse events and deaths? Cdc VAERS 1.2 million adverse events, 28,000 deaths. Underreporting factor up to 41.
On they march in plain sight , it’s all set in stone ! Zelensky “The False” beamed onto the Pyramid Stage at Glasto + I think The Doom Goblin was there as well & Prince Charles spouting more WEF climate nonsense !!.. it’s relentless
Also did Bojoke just promise more £ millions of our money to Ukraine
Can you spell D_I_C_T_A_T_O_R_S_H_I_P ?
We don’t call the Corporatist (Mussolini’s favoured synonym for Fascist) EU the Fourth Reich for nothing.
The EU jab passport expires in June 2023 but in May 2023, the Etias visa waiver scheme will be introduced for travellers to Europe. Online applicants have to submit passport and health details – no doubt, jab status will be required – and travel permission can be denied / rescinded dependant on some health circumstances.
More monitoring and surveillance of the public.
