Dozens of MPs are set to meet with members of the Together Declaration tomorrow to demand that the Government never introduces vaccine passports, including as part of a winter 'Plan B'.
Has the winter 'flu season' begun in northern Europe, with signs of upticks in Covid positive tests in the U.K., Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands and also Russia?
In August, modellers predicted a third wave in India peaking around now that has wholly failed to appear. Has any model yet succeeded in predicting the course of the pandemic?
Laura Dodsworth has written a good piece in her new Substack account, arguing that the Government's 'Winter Plan' is packed with 'nudges' that are bound to "confuse people into compliance".
Health Secretary Sajid Javid has attempted to clarify what exactly would trigger the Government to implement its 'Plan B' (including vaccine passports and mask mandates) this winter but was very coy on the specifics.
Vaccine passports will be introduced with a weeks notice if infections don't stay low this winter, and we could see the return of mask mandates as well as of a whole new lockdown, the Government has announced.
The Prime Minister has said there may be a "rough winter" ahead. But since by the Government's own admission lockdowns appear to be the cause of the pressures on the NHS, the cycle of lockdowns will never end.
Justice Secretary Robert Buckland has refused to decline claims that lockdowns could be introduced in the winter, saying that “the essence of the virus is you can't ever say mission accomplished”.
