Great news.
Especially for the opposition. But not for those who have to police this.

Anyway, I know of 3 double jabbed people with covid all ill in bed. The vaccine passports will make no difference with the spread, whatever we are told.

Similar story In the US, a Covid pandemic amongst those who refuse to get the Covid Vaccine.

Not sure why I'm bothering really, but it's possible that the alleged 3 people you know might be dead if they hadn't been double jabbed. Ergo anything that encourages more people to be jabbed has got to be a good thing.

I think it will just be on the existing NHS app. I've just checked and mine is already there.

I’m assuming it’ll just be on there too.

All you have to do is pretend you’ve had a test at home and it’s clear - let’s hope they stop that.

Your vaccine passport has nothing to do with home testing - so falsifying your home tests will not be of any help to you.

So the passport is only based on vaccinations? Brilliant.

Yes - The NHS app displays your Covid vaccination history, including which type and dates. You can then request for this to generate a QR code which can be scanned by venues to confirm your status.

Yes - I know that bit, but I was under the impression venues had previously been accepting a Negative home test as condition of entry? I take it that was just something different outside of the ‘passport’?

Correct, some venues had been doing that, but that was just their own policy not governments and was completely prone to pisstaking. The 'passport' is purely based upon vaccination history.

You can download and print off.

So what if you don't have a printer?

Ask a friend, neighbour, family member to print it off.

What if I'm a bit of a hermit, live in a cave in Wales and don't like people?

Then you're fecked.

Simple - just print it off and keep a copy in your filofax.

You didn’t. You mentioned a real one. I don’t think there will be one. Let’s discuss again in December. I will , of course , apologise if I’m wrong
I mentioned that scientists would call for one if numbers rose drastically .

See if you listen to what the scientists actually say , instead
Of what some Doc on GB news interprets what they have said
Youd No already .

If case numbers go up drastically there
Will be pressure on hospitals . If hospitals
Are under pressure , it is inevitable there will be
Further lockdowns .

If the Hospitals arent under pressure there
Probably wont be a lockdown .see pretty much the same as last March really .

Night Night T.Z
See you in December
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58474536

The i newspaper said plans had been drawn up to extend the school half-term holiday, if the number of hospitalisations continue at the current level.

The i said a full lockdown was unlikely - but the government could introduce some rules as part of a "firebreak".

However the Department for Education said the report was "not true".

"It is not true that the government is planning a lockdown or firebreak around the October half term," it said in a tweet.

" The prime minister's spokesman also denied the report. He said plans had been kept for a range of scenarios - "but these kind of measures would only be reintroduced as a last resort to prevent unsustainable pressure on our NHS".


Just a quote from the minister

This has been this Government's approach to public comms throughout the whole pandemic. It also acts to warm people up to the idea first before it is officially anounced.
