CONFIRMED: UK’s Return To ‘Freedom’ Will See Continued Use Of Masks, Government Tracking And Introduction of Vaccine Passports
It’s the complete antithesis of freedom

Summit News | 13 July, 2021

After weeks of denying that vaccine passports would be introduced into everyday domestic life in the UK, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced Monday that the government will ask nightclubs, pubs, and anywhere where people gather to adopt the measure ‘as a matter of social responsibility’.



The announcement was again completely vague, with little details on exactly what venues will be made to use the NHS COVID app system as “a means of entry,” or how it will be managed and enforced.

The only details that were given by ministers are that it will be ‘encouraged’ anywhere where people are “likely to be in close proximity to others outside their household.”

So everywhere then.



Government guidelines, published Monday also state that if sufficient measures are not taken to limit infection, the Government will “consider mandating certification in certain venues at a later date.”



The announcement also comes on the heels of the government suggesting that while face masks and distancing measures will become optional, businesses and transport companies will be encouraged to make their own policies.



In addition, the NHS ‘Test, Trace & Isolate’ system will also remain in place, meaning that people will still be subject to spontaneous house arrest orders.

The government documents state that “Test, Trace and Isolate has an important ongoing role in managing the virus and reduces the risk of potentially dangerous variants spreading.”

“The Government expects the Test, Trace and Isolate system will remain necessary through the autumn and winter,” it adds.

The guidance also states that “Anyone who tests positive will still need to self-isolate regardless of their vaccination status. Further details will be published in due course and the changes are likely to come into effect later in the summer.”

The Prime Minster also stated Monday that the Government will keep Covid data under review “probably, I’m afraid, into next year” adding that he “will not hesitate” to re-impose restrictions if needed.

The series of ‘freedom’ announcements has left journalists, business owners, MPs, and the general population asking what exactly they are being freed from.

Nightclubs, Cinemas Resist Government Demand to Introduce COVID Passports
“Freedom day” proves to be the precise opposite.

Summit News | 14 July, 2021

Nightclubs and cinemas in the UK are resisting government requirements that they introduce COVID vaccine passports to enter their venues.

July 19th is supposed to be “freedom day,” when all coronavirus restrictions in the UK are lifted, but the government is asking numerous larger venues to implement a policy that will block the unvaccinated and those who can’t prove a negative COVID test from entry.

The Night Time Industries Association responded by labeling the requirements “disingenuous and unclear,” and others have followed suit.

The Times reports:

Quote:Peter Marks, Chief Executive of Rekom U.K., said yesterday that its 42 venues would reopen next week “at full capacity and without any requirement for a negative Covid test, something we believe would create a barrier to both customer enjoyment and getting the industry back on its feet”.

Aaron Mellor, Founder of the nightclub chain Tokyo Industries, will reopen all of its 45 venues next week aside from those that cater for university students who are away during the summer.

“Many of our events have already been sold out and to ask us now retrospectively to force a vaccine passport is super-difficult to manage,” he said. “You’ve also got to consider that many of our target age group are people in the 18-25 bracket who haven’t had the option to have two vaccinations yet.”

Cinemas are also wary of having to introduce COVID certification, especially that a sizeable chunk of young people haven’t yet had the vaccine or don’t intend to get jabbed.

“We believe that the overwhelming majority of our members continue to oppose the notion that audience members should be required to show evidence of a double Covid vaccination or negative test before being allowed into their venues,” said Phil Clapp, Chief Executive of the U.K. Cinema Association.

The government is likely to make the vaccine passports mandatory in the Autumn, although this will face stiff resistance from affected industries as it will wipe huge sums off their income and make some events unsustainable.

This is all part of the continuing effort to impose medical apartheid where those who haven’t had the vaccine are treated as second class citizens who will remain under a de facto form of lockdown indefinitely.

Meanwhile, London Mayor Sadiq Khan has said that people who use the London underground network will still be forced to wear face masks after “freedom day” on July 19th.

“Freedom day” is the freedom to remain muzzled while having to show your medical papers at checkpoints that will now litter innumerable aspects of society.

That’s not freedom!
