Thousands have taken to the streets in France to protest against President Emmanuel Macron’s extreme plans to force all health workers to get vaccinated against Covid and to prevent the unvaccinated from visiting restaurants, shopping malls and hospitals, and from using trains and planes. Unmoved by these demonstrations, French Prime Minister Jean Castex says people should be “convinced” to take the vaccine “at all costs”. Reuters has the story.
Macron this week announced sweeping measures to fight a rapid surge in coronavirus infections, which protesters say infringe the freedom of choice of those who do not want the vaccination.
The measures had already prompted demonstrations earlier this week, forcing police to use tear gas to disperse protesters.
“Everyone is sovereign in his own body. In no way does a president of the Republic have the right to decide on my individual health,” said one protester in Paris who identified herself as Chrystelle.
Marches, which also took place in France’s largest cities such as Marseille, Lyon and Lille as well as many smaller centres, also included “yellow vest” protesters seeking to revive the anti-Government movement curbed by coronavirus lockdowns.
Visiting a centre in Anglet in southwestern France, Prime Minister Jean Castex said vaccination, which is not mandatory for the general public for now, is the only way to fight the virus.
“I hear the reluctance that arises but I think that we must at all costs convince all our fellow citizens to be vaccinated, it is the best way to cope to this health crisis,” Castex said.
Despite the strength of the protests, an Ipsos-Sopra Steria poll released on Friday found more than 60% of French people agree with mandatory vaccination for health workers, as well as a requirement for a health pass in some public places.

That is the dumbest thing I’ve read all day and I’ve read a lot of dumb stuff today.
Take the AZ vaxx and get 100% protection from Bruce Springsteen gigs.
It’s the only promotion tag line so far that makes having a jab seem even vaguely OK.
Very good. Didn’t see this before I posted.
You win Joke of the Week Award
Best comment ever…
I have a life long aversion to Bruce Springsteen sadly, after having him inflicted on me at full volume late at night on an almost permanent basis by a flat mate [she thought he was the closest thing to God you could get] so I agree with you on that score.
I have decided henceforth to no longer refer to the gene therapy as a jab. As per Vernon Coleman’s description I will be calling it “death in a syringe”.
100% correct on Bruce and the experimental biological
What a load of BS!
The Boss telling people what to do
LONDON ANTI LOCKDOWN EVENTS https://www.standupx.info/
Sun, 20 Jun, 1pm – Streatham Common, SW16 5TF
Mon, 21 Jun, from 8am – Gather at Speaker’s Corner, Hyde Park
Mon, 21 Jun, from 12pm – Ready to march to Parliament from Speaker’s Corner
Is this just a Covid information website? It NEVER promoted the demonstration in advance. We do’t want to upset Good Ol’ Boris.
Nothing says rock and roll like coercing your audience into genetic engineering.
Springsteen has been a fake from day one.
He’s openly admitted that his, “Boss,” persona is based on his blue-collar, working class father.
Bruce himself is an America-hating vegan who is amazed he’s been able to get over on the rubes for this long.
Personally, I’d need to be genetically-re-engineered, mentally and aurally, to go to listen to this bloke. Can’t stand his music or his “schtick”.
His stuff is flabby, overwrought nonsense, signifying nothing..
One day, they’ll be locked up for this discrimination.

I’d rather/only see Van Morrison or Eric Clapton anyway.
Ian Brown live, even if he can hardly sing.
Watch recordings of his concerts to absorb what he means to his fans.
Van rocks!!
Imagine all those poor deluded AZ victims if this nonsense takes hold and all those who submitted to the AZ death in a syringe are told that it doesn’t count.
Another one of those “rare” blood clotting cases again .- this time a father and his son …
‘There’s no other explanation’: Utah mom blames COVID vaccines after her 17-year-old athlete son and her husband were BOTH hospitalized with rare blood clots after getting Pfizer and Moderna shots.’

Robert Kennedy’s Children’s defense news (USA) gives a very clear VAERS report each week. Makes for an eye watering read. So far 5,900 dead post vaccine,with nearly a half a million adverse events. Fda postponed their “emergency” meeting to discuss vaccines for children. Guess it really wasn’t an emergency. The deaths and adverse events are occurring around the world. Why has there not been a stop to this nonsense?
Worth reminding ourselves that Moderna has not previously been in the business of developing/supplying vaccines for human usage. The fact people are accepting jabs from this particular brand is astonishing.
That’s OK, they are not being used by humans.
It’s the status shot, don’t you know.
When I was mingling with the venture capital community a few years back, Moderna’s CEO was viewed as “weird & distinctly unpleasant”.
Now, if you’ve ever spent time with venture finance folk, you’ll know that describes the average phenotype anyway, so I’m not entirely surprised.
You won’t know unless told, but this lady is I believe the niece of Mitt Romney.
He hasn’t even called her.
According to a senior US politician I’m in touch with.
I’m gratified to learn that he BELIEVES me & wants to link up. It’s a first step.
So many countries are avoiding the AZ experimental biological. I wonder why? Some countries now telling their vaccinees to avoid long flights, if they have taken the blood clot inducing biological. What on earth is next?
Medical apartheid has already begun. Tough luck if you’re a disabled fan who can not get the non-vaccine even if you wanted it.
Isn’t this medical apartheid!
Yes, but he’s ‘the boss’.
Foo Fighters being the other bunch of cunts enabling this bollox. Kurt Cobain wouldn’t have put up with this shit, despite all the drugs he pumped himself with.
I am deeply disappointed by the Foos over this.
Also disappointed by their last album. Didn’t buy it.
Grohl might be one of the nicest guys in the rock business, but on this he’s a dumb*ss
He also wouldn’t have taken part in the dreadful but doubtless long forgotten ‘Eazy Sleazy’ token anti-lockdown dad-rawk collaboration with Mick le Jagger from two months back, featuring such nuggets as:
“Shooting the vaccine. Bill Gates is in my bloodstream. It’s mind control…”
Quite….
Expecting ‘Street Fighting’ from Jagger is risible..
What comes around will eventually go around.
Or even the other way around
Yet asymptomatic transmission has zero scientific support, and you’re told having the vaccine doesn’t prevent you from contracting, or if symptomatic, spreading the virus!
I think at least some of the vaccine fascism is about rewarding those who have been jabbed. If they see the unjabbed getting the same freedoms, they will wonder why they bothered and feel grumpy. As always, nothing to do with public health.
Zero scientific support?!
44,000 preprint, papers or citations currently.
There are many hundreds of papers if you bother looking.
Well they closed down the auto plant in Mahwah late last month
Ralph went out lookin’ for safe jabs, but he couldn’t find none
He came home too drunk from mixin’ Tanqueray and wine
Tried to go to a Bruce gig; now they call’m Johnny 99
Down in the part of town where when you hit a red light you don’t stop
Johnny’s wavin’ gig tickets around and threatenin’ to blow his top
When an off-duty cop snuck up on him from behind
Out in front of the Club Tip Top. they slapped the cuffs on Johnny 99
Well, the city supplied a public defender but the judge was Mean John Brown
He came into the courtroom and stared poor Johnny down
Well the evidence is clear gonna let the sentence son fit the crime
Prison for ninety eight and a year and we’ll call it even Johnny 99
A fist fight broke out in the courtroom; they had to drag Johnny’s girl away
His mama stood up and shouted, “Judge, don’t take my boy this way”
Well, son, you got any statement you’d like to make
Before the bailiff comes to forever take you away
Now, judge, judge, I take blood thinners every day
The vax is no good for me it could take my whole life away
Now I ain’t sayin’ that made me an innocent man
But it was more ‘n all this, Judge, that put Bruce tix in my hands
Well your honor I do believe I’d be better off dead
And if you can take a man’s life for the clots that’s in his head
Then won’t you sit back in that chair and think it over judge one more time?
And let ’em shave off my hair and put me on that execution line
Love it!
<Insert rapturous applause *HERE*>
Yeah!
Good, but to get a better sense of the range of our brethren, Bowie’s “I’m afraid of Americans” takes sone beating.
Well – I wasn’t going, anyway.
But bang goes a reputation in one easy move!
… a quick jump from hero to establishment zero.
He’s been a fake from day one.
Cringeworthy “get together” with Obama made me suspiscious. Another feature of the “pandemic”….finding out people who you thought might just be ok aren’t. Mr Springsteen joins some of my family, all of my neighbours, and pretty much most of the people I know.
James Corden on the other hand; well I always knew that fat bastard was a waste of space so no burst bubble there.
Yes, I am stunned to be siding with Russell Brand, who knew!
It’s not easy. All my U.K. family are on side & never doubted me.
My three overseas siblings, one with a law degree & another a PhD say I’m a conspiracy theorist.
One brother is a cable TV guy & insists he’s right, discounting to zero my 40 years life sciences training & practise.
Not even any inquisitiveness on why I’ve Taken the stance that I have.
I sent them all a two page summary & a dozen or so references.
Since then, crickets.
i don’t suppose you could let us have a copy of that summary and references?
Dr. Yeadon- Thank you so much for all you are doing to get the truth out! You are a true hero. I followed you on twitter and saved about 40 pages of your tweets and I still share them all over the internet.
Fuck You, Bruce!
I always liked the other Bruce better, have to find out what he thinks.
No Brucie bonus with AZ, not that I ever thought he was worth listening to, let alone watch
BBC
Estimates that 20,000 Scotland fans would travel south for the match have been been described as “very conservative” by a London Assembly member.
A dispersal order has been issued for central London, giving the police extra powers to break up groups of people where they believe their behaviour is causing a nuisance, harassment or distress.
Dear Cressida and your female hating TSG
Very best wishes with your dispersal order
You may find it gets shoved somewhere where the sun doesn’t shine very often, but all the best anyway
Signed
An inmate who is not gruntled
That’s ok Bruce. I’m good with not going.
Is this is anything price wise like the last Broadway run for the “man of the people” you will be a lot wealthier watching the same tired act on Netflix.
Disappointed that musicians of all people are happy with medical apartheid. And to think they were the anti “sun city” generation.
Not really newsworthy as it seems this will become the norm for the forseeable future.
Bruce can go fuck himself, sideways, but I did lol at the AZ ban. In the UK we’ve shitloads of that poison with its extended expiry date to get rid of. They are trying to offload it on anyone when really it needs pouring down the sink.
Think of the poor bloomin’ fish!! Or does this chime with TY chucking his face mask in the river? Cripes ‘The River’, we’re back in Bossland!
If these guys fancy rna are safer, they gottta Big shock comin’, man.
There seems to be a lot of people out there who have had 2 jabs and presumably a third to come this winter who are frightened of catching covid.
And I haven’t had any of them and am not in the least bit concerned. Odd that.
Fuck the boring old woke twat
Bruce is a cuck of epic proportions.
I wouldn’t want to be in an auditorium full of a bunch of sheep shedding spike proteins all over the place anyway.
So there are some upsides to getting the vax then.
Just another load of BS!
And if Bruce Springstein or indeed any other artist continues to perform with these divisive rules in place they are no better than if they were performing in Apartheid south Africa or supporting the Nazi party in discriminating aginst Jews. This is segregation and discrimination. Springstein should refuse to appear under such rules. If he does then we can judge what sort ofperson he is
The good old Beatles would not stand for segregated audiences.
Segregation, who would have thought it, or is it only vaccine coercion
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if there is something else and much simpler behind this, and if this was just the trial balloon or signal for it.
After all, we and the EU do not recognize the Chinese and Russian ‘vaccines’.
So why shouldn’t the Americans not accept the 3 American ones only?!
I would not be surprised at all now, if the AZ jabbed were treated like the unjabbed by and in the US once it reopened.
So much for the special relationship or a fabulous new trade deal.
The New York/New Jersey (note the Bruce/Broadway proximity) based US pharmafia is just calling the shots here (pun intended), and that, as usual, for a single, everything else overwhelming motive: $$$$s!
Because they can.
Yeah, I wouldn’t buy a probably highly overpriced ticket to this dried up, old windbag in the first place.
Totally love it! Anything that shows the faux-vaccines for what they are is ok with me! The fact that some aged wanker wants to be the vessel to do it, even better. Party on dude!
Above all, worse than the laws and regulations and nitwit politicians or scientists with sinister and coercive intent, above these are the scum which breathe life into this shit show by managing their little section of the world, like THIS.
makes me sick
Always thought he was over-rated and his music was crap anyway. Stick it up your rectum Brucey Boy.
Initially we were “all in it together”, clapping the carers, shopping for shielders etc. Then they brought in masks and suddenly there were “others” who went free-faced. Then they brought in the vax, and we split again, vax heroes and un-stabbed scum. Now, it has to be the “patriot vax” or nothing. See where this is going?
Facilis descensus Averno…
I think we can conclude that most celebrities are actually as thick as pig shit. No amount of virtue signalling will protect them from the side effects of the experimental gene therapy. Ah well.
What a cnut.
Contrast the attitude of this overrated entertainer to artist Eric Clapton, who eschews any kind of segregated audience.
Appalling behaviour from the artist.
Be more like Ian Brown & Van Morrison, both of whom will never play to segregated audiences. I respect them both immensely.
“At the direction of New York State, Springsteen on Broadway and the St James Theatre will only be accepting proof of FDA-approved Covid vaccines,” the website says.
It doesn’t say “at the direction of New York State and Bruce Springsteen”…
He was only following orders?
GMAFB.
This is “at the direction of New York State”. We don’t know if Bruce had any say in the matter.
Of course he has a say. “No” would be a good start.
I think it was Voltaire who said something like:
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities”.
Scarily accurate.
New York is in a mess. Ignore. And if Bruce had anything to do with this decision he will have lost many loyal fans including me.
Wheres the surprise?
AZ is not FDA approved. It’s unlikely to be FDA approved due to its extreme lack of efficacy vs other vaccines.
You can expect many other countries to not recognise AZ in the future for the simple fact that is really doesn’t work very well.
Jesus another casualty of adverse vaccination reactions (no I haven’t been taking any gene therapy treatments). I used to love Springsteen NO LONGER. He can go and stick his concerts, music and his vaccines where the sun don’t shine. KNOB.
Think I’ll take a rain check!
