UK transport minister Grant Shapps says that countries will demand full vaccination “forevermore” and that young people “won’t be able to leave the country” without being double jabbed.
Shapps made the comments during an appearance on BBC Radio 4’s Today show.
“I think double vaccination, full vaccination, is going to be a feature forevermore and most countries, probably all countries, will require full vaccination in order for you to enter,” said the minister.
“It’s important to understand that there are simply going to be things that you will not be able to do unless you’re double-vaccinated or have a medical reason not to be, including going abroad,” he added.
He then directly addressed people in their 20’s who were under the impression the virus doesn’t effect them by asserting, “You won’t be able to leave the country” without the jab.
The comments were intended to combat vaccine hesitancy amongst young people, with figures showing fewer than 60% of 18- to 25-year-olds had received their first jab in England.
The UK is set to introduce vaccine passports in September that mandate proof of full vaccination before allowing people to enter venues such as nightclubs and concerts.
The option of providing a negative COVID test result instead will be removed despite the fact that fully vaccinated people can still spread the virus.
The government initially vowed to never introduce vaccine passports because they were “discriminatory,” but if the government is successful in doing so, expect the list of venues requiring them to rapidly expand.
However, some nightclubs have vowed to resist the measures, insisting that they are impossible to enforce and will eliminate profit margins, making staying in business unworkable.
As Sir Desmond Swayne recently warned, vaccine passports are merely a veil for the introduction of national identity cards.
“It is the Trojan Horse for an identity card system. Once you bring in requirements of this sort, they’re very, very difficult to remove,” Sir Desmond said.
He looks a tad like The Grinch.
Until a change in Government with all the nutjobs gone
i imagine these petty bureaucrats have 24/7 security
A homosexual Grinch.
Tell me by just looking at this idiot he doesn’t look right
Not hard to believe, some TSA employees are going to be hitting 20 years this year.
He looks a tad like a real wanker...
Well, they are “subjects” after all.
I live in Spain. Less than a week ago the regional leaders decided that anyone going into a nightclub would have to show proof of vaccination. The national leadership stopped it before it could go into effect.
What is that Stupid Twit smiling about ?
Well, let’s narrow that statement down to the real nitty-gritty: (1) not your town, (2) not your neighborhood, (3) not your block.
In fact, you (Yes “you”) have just been found wanting and must be interred forever more. Bye.
“However, some nightclubs have vowed to resist the measures, insisting that they are impossible to enforce and will eliminate profit margins, making staying in business unworkable.”
Exactly. Plus the back-alley fake vaxx cards are now prevalent, even in canada.
So true and as the Regime continues to spread the Covid 19 as fast as possible while pushing ever more draconian restrictions and vacs on the law abiding Americans, how soon will camps start being used for "our own good?"
Yep, he’s a Brit... and he’s got the bad choppers to prove it.
Yup. He looks like an asshole.
“ Sooner than you think.”
People will act before that. I believe it.
The option of providing a negative COVID test result instead will be removed despite the fact that fully vaccinated people can still spread the virus.

Brilliant. At this point it’s an accident waiting to happen and it’s an accident totally of the making of these arrogant bureaucrats. They so very highly deserve this disaster to explode in their face. Control freaks.
