Fears over new COVID ID cards: Tories call on Boris to legislate to stop pubs, restaurants and shops demanding proof of vaccination on entry - as minister repeatedly refuses to rule out new documents being used as 'immunity passports'
Great! I'm amazed that the Government didn't make the vaccine mandatory with stiff penalties for 'refuseniks'.
They should when found be dragged to the nearest lampost, tied and beaten by police with those long wooden clubs like are used by the police in India. Yes beaten soundly mind!
Conservative libertarians whine that Corona restrictions are too brutal. What bollocks, libertarianism is all very well but not during a war. During WWll folk were told to make sure their windows were covered and no light visible to prevent the Luftwaffe from spotting targets. Those who failed to comply were given fines.
They weren't given a choice to comply or not. The first duty of any government is to protect the general public..
It is also reasonable for landlords, restauranteurs, shop owners to demand you prove your not an a-symptomatic superspreader of Corona, that will infect their customers once the vaccine is rolled out. A vaccine passport is the only other way if the vaccine is not made mandatory to protect the public.
- ID card will be handed out to every Briton after they receive their Covid-19 vaccine in the coming months
- Card warns: 'Make sure you keep this card in your purse or wallet' - but Government denies it is a passport
- Tory MPs demand legislation that could prevent the cards being used as a vaccine passport by another name
- Critics say businesses may demand to see them and there are concerns they could be very easy to counterfeit
- The card will start to be handed out when Pfizer vaccine roll-out begins in Britain from tomorrow
