Boris Johnson faces defeat in Parliament over vaccine passports
Telegraph ^ | July 21 | By Ben Riley-Smith, POLITICAL EDITOR

Posted on 07/22/2021 4:58:37 PM PDT by RandFan

Boris Johnson faces defeat in the House of Commons over his plans to bring in vaccine passports after Labour indicated that it would oppose the measures.

A Labour spokesman said making people show proof of Covid jabs for "everyday access" to venues was "costly, open to fraud and impractical".

Mr Johnson said on Monday that he would change the law to require proof of two doses of a Covid vaccine for entry into nightclubs and "other venues where large crowds gather".

To do so he must hold a vote in the Commons and the Lords but is now facing opposition from both Labour and the Liberal Democrats, with defeat a real possibility.

At least 42 Conservative MPs have already signed a petition opposed to Covid certification being used for "general services, businesses or jobs". A rebellion on that scale could be enough to overturn Mr Johnson's Commons majority of around 80 seats if all other opposition MPs voted against the measures.

I used to like BJ. Seems the globalists got to him and now he’s just another Eurotyrant.

You can’t convince me he isn’t in cahoots with Gates and Soros. Too much coincidence. He’ll probably retire and work for them.

He is worse than the other so-called conservative Theresa May. An abject failure. What the hell is wrong with the Tories? It’s time to elect Nigel Farage as PM.

It's a strange day when I find myself in agreement with the British Labour Party. Though I do notice they get to the right position for the wrong reason, basically because it would cost too much money and be difficult to enforce rather than it's an authoritarian violation of personal freedom.

Outside of Thatcher, the Tories have been hot garbage, since they chose Ted Heath over Enoch Powell.

Hmmmp. I would've thought the Labour Party would be all-in for totalitarian Covid passports. Maybe they're just against them because BJ is for them.

It’s CO-ORDINATED... France, Greece, Italy, Spain and now the UK.

This is a globalist/UN agenda.

Thankfully it’ll be defeated amid mass protests..

They’re under public pressure not to go along with it and to OPPOSE for once.

They have supported all the lockdowns, etc. and pretty much everything Boris has done re: Covid.

Uniparty in action.

Vaccine passports are much closer than you think.

Just got this email from Safeway:

“Thank you for completing your COVID-19 Vaccine appointment!

Our records indicate you’ve completed your vaccination series. As a service to you, our pharmacies offer a free digital Vaccine Record™ that you can download and save to your digital device. Now you can easily show proof as needed for return-to-work, return-to-school, and other activities!”

Other activities...........

I would have thought Labour would love this horrible idea. They want testing instead.

They’d probably be all for it because it’s a fascist big government overreach, but since it’s being proposed by Boris the “conservative”, they have to knee-jerk oppose it so he can’t score a political “victory”.
