Vaccine passports discussed on BBC World Service this morning.

Ridiculous Grauniad hitpiece by soyboy aussie who literally lives in Portland, Oregon seething that the fediverse cannot easily be censored. This is exactly the kind of 'journalist' that Glenn Greenwald.substack.com was talking about in that article

Apart from the 76 MPs listed the rest don’t deserve that title. Any assembly that simply rubber stamps the decisions of the executive is not a parliament, it is a version of the old Soviet style Congress of People’s Deputies. When the opposition fail to oppose the government and don’t even try to hold them to account the democracy is well and truly dead.

Thank you for printing the list of those who voted against the extension. It came as no surprise to discover my brown nosed MP Jo Churchill voted for it. She might bear the name Churchill but she doesn’t deserve to.

Thanks to the 76 MPs who have shown integrity. But 484 MPs have voted to say that they implicitly trust a government that is scientifically, morally and financ

ially bankrupt.
It appears Commons’ sense is even less common than common sense.

Daily Mail readers are on case
10k comments must be something of a record.
Equally hostile to our inept government and spineless opposition.

Whoever they are from Green to the most right wing tory, they all deserve our praise and their place in history.

An increase of 20/30 ‘rebels’ every time the Coronavirus Act comes back to the Commons – heck is going to take several years before it no longer exists. It comes back again mid Sept – uuummm surely not the start of the respiratory virus season? Around and around we will go.

Beowa
Some interesting names in that list but well done to all of them for voting against the continuation of this tyranny

BeBopRockSteady

All but 2 MPs from Northern Ireland voted against. The two were SDLP and I think they’ve always abstained. Sinn Fein don’t sit.

So, that’s quite a large block for a tiny region like NI. However, there seems zero opposition to it here. We are already seeing reports of scary cases rising again as we near the lockdown restrictions easing.

They will be extended here I have no doubt. Politicians are such irrelevant beasts at the moment

So yet again. No research just print a headline. The majority of the labour mp’s were not voting against the act. They were saying it did NOT GO FAR ENOUGH. They want a total lockdown and push for the impossible zero covid.

misslawbore

They will not be forgotten. Neither will those who voted for the extension including my Sutton Surrey Conservative MP (drum roll) Mr. Paul Scully

HOIST BY YOUR OWN PETARD- A DISCUSSION ON 'RACISM'
beware false...educators?? Petition to reinstate “BLASPHEMOUS” teacher swells

Nearly 60,000 people have demanded the UK teacher SUSPENDED for showing a controversial cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad in class be restored after a student-led campaign.

The unnamed Religious Education teacher from Batley Grammar School had already been placed under police protection following a furious backlash from local Muslim leaders, one of whom admitted to leaking his name online.

This came after two days of angry parent protests forced the school to close temporarily, despite the actual students themselves defending their teacher for illustrating a discussion on racism.
