UPDATED: Vaccine Passport Protests Around the World

On July 13th French President Emmanuel Macron announced that, beginning later this month, French citizens will need proof of Covid19 “vaccination”, or a negative test, to access public transport, clubs, cafes, shops and supermarkets. He also stated that healthcare workers would face mandatory vaccination:

Quite why Macron’s handlers had him make this announcement the day before Bastille Day we will never know, especially considering the Macron regime’s year-long siege at the hands of the Gilets Jaunes movement only came to an end when the “pandemic” hit.

Nevertheless, that’s what he did…and the outcry was as vociferous as it was predictable.

Thousands of people took to the streets of cities all across the country. Fittingly, Bastille Day became a day of protests…which turned violent when the police fired tear gas into the crowds.

France is not the only country with active, visible and growing “vaccine” protests.

On Monday the Greek government announced they would be making Covid19 “vaccination” mandatory for some sectors, and since then large crowds have gathered opposing the move and calling for the Prime Minister to resign.

In the UK, Boris Johnson’s government has suggested that “Covid passes” might be necessary for service industries and events in the future, but major nightclub chains have already stated they would not enforce them.

Earlier this week the UK Parliament voted through a bill to force mandatory vaccination on care-home workers, but we should take note the vote was fairly close (319-246, with ~80 abstentions). If you compare this with the overwhelming support for previous coronavirus legislation, you can see (hopefully) some growing resistance.

There was even a hint of desperation surrounding the vote itself. MPs from both main parties criticised the lack of time devoted to the measure (they had only 90 minutes to read and discuss it before voting), the lack of research supporting it (no impact study was included) and the fact the vast majority of MPs were voting by proxy.

Whether the bill makes it through the House of Lords or not, the move is unlikely to do much to quell the huge (and growing) protest movement in the UK. Where crowds estimated upwards of a million people have swept through the capital city on a monthly basis. The protest planned for later this month will likely be the largest yet, and this new legislation will be mostly to blame.

The impact of some of this legislation can already be seen in various authoritarian pilot schemes around the world.

In Texas, a Houston hospital chain was the first major healthcare provider to force its staff to get the vaccine. More than 150 of them either retired in protest or were fired for non-compliance. Projected across a national health service, that could cause thousands upon thousands of people to lose their jobs and prove a major disaster.

In Israel, the controversial “Green Pass” program was abandoned after less than three months due to the vast majority of people simply ignoring it.

Does this demonstrate the way forward? What do you think?

  • Will Macron be forced to backtrack due to popular unrest?
  • Was the announcement coinciding with Bastille Day deliberate? Why?
  • Will the Greek Primie Minister be forced to resign?
  • Will the UK introduce domestic vaccine passports?
  • If they do, what’s the best way to avoid them?
  • What would the impact on the NHS be if mass firings/resignations took place?
  • Is mass non-compliance the answer?

Discuss in the comments below.

UPDATE: There are also large, ongoing anti-vaccine passport protests in Dublin the last few days, with more planned for this weekend.

If you’re aware of any other current or planned protests, please let us know and we’ll add them to our list.

The largest protests in France are planned for this Saturday. And for our UK readers, Unite for Freedom are planning more anti-lockdown and anti-vaccine passport protests over the summer, specifically Saturday the 24th of July and Saturday the 28th of August.

Here’s a notable fact about yesterday’s anti vaccine passport demos in France. There was one (that I know of) préfecture in France which officially FORBID any demonstration, in the city of Toulouse, the 4th biggest city in France. This indicates to me that the central government decided to use Toulouse as a type of ‘control’ in their experiment, to see the effect of a policy of direct oppression, via government decree, on the movement. Remember that the central state in France rules the country via it’s direct representatives in every ‘département’, where the ‘préfecture’ can make decisions that can over-rule any local politician, including mayors and local representatives of the départemental government. Every ‘département’ has a préfecture, usually in the major city of the déparement, and with ‘sous-prefectures’ in the smaller cities, with a ‘préfet’ answerable directly to the President in Paris. You can see how this works to prevent… Read more »

Report From Montpellier, July 17 2021 In February 2003 I participated in (and helped organize) one of the biggest political demonstrations in Montpellier history, when, officially, around 10,000 people marched in the streets against the buildup for the USA/UK invasion and occupation of Iraq. Today, I participated in a march which was, in my opinion, equally large, but which, according to the local newspaper, was half the number: 5,500. Whatever the actual count it was a huge demonstration. Keep in mind that the February 2003 demo was in line with the centralized state policy of French President Chirac, who officially was opposing the USA/UK maneuvering in the United Nations. This time the people were vocally opposed to their president, chanting again and again ‘Macron Démission’ (resign). Or ‘Macron en Prison!’. Keep in mind that in 2003 there was a huge coalition of political and civic groups actively organizing, with a… Read more »

Today the people of France have accomplished a historic event. They have come together in peace (yes it was peaceful in Paris, no police violence). There were 1000s upon 1000s just in the Provinces, large protests even in small towns! So you can well imagine in Paris. Its like a new wind rising, a wind of peace, of hope, of humanity coming together… Never before in my life have I seen such a large mobilization, grandparents with their grandchildren, absolutely every age group present… So dont listen to the mainstream media, which is trying to belittle this as though only about a few 100s were present in Paris. And I spent time with the vaccinated (about everyone where I live), we’ve had fruitful discussion. Though silent, some of them now regret having been vaccinated (I tried not to scare them, and withheld telling them the statistics I myself computed), and… Read more »

Since I refuse to be “vaccinated” I am now the only one where I work who must wear my face diaper every time I talk to anyone or get up from my desk. Sure, I could lie and say I’ve been shot up and ditch the diaper, but I refuse to do that as of now. Funny thing, although not funny at all to anyone on this site, NOT ONE person has ever had the temerity to ask my WHY. Not one. I work on my theoretical answers to that question in my head, trying for a non confrontational answer to those who have succumbed to the vax, an answer that won’t simply cause them to stop listening and one that won’t terrify them either. The best I can come up with for a quick one, is how something that does not confer immunity for the vaxxed is going to… Read more »

I too refuse to say I am vaccinated when asked. For me, it would be like starting to submit. And I too would resign rather than submitting to the jab. But I am hopefull, with what I’m seeing in France and elsewhere (US), that it might not come to that.

incomprehensible that controlled mass media are silent, not a word about anything in the above article. however, they tell there are protests in Cuba and South Africa.

They were eager to report on every step, every street, every building where Hong Kong protesters had been. they in fact acted as a mouthpiece for HK protesters.

by the way, the australian prime minister now has 6 press secretaries. by the look of it, they have more work to stop news from being broadcasted than what they want released to the public!

July 15, the fake news channel CNN claimed that it’s competition is literally killing people by broadcasting dangerous ‘anti-vax bullshit’ and that Fox News and Republicans are purposely trying to increase Covid death statistics in order to make the Biden administration look bad.

Well, the latter can’t look much worse than what it already looks like can it, with the rigged election and all that!

Insofar, as “anti-vax bullshit” is concerned, when will they ever come clean and tell us that they have no concrete scientific proof that SARS-COV -2 ever existed except in the vivid imagination of virologists. Which simply means for the nth time, No Virus – No Vaccine, only a massive SCAM!

We need more such proposals just to open up people’s minds to fact that different world is possible however implausible it sounds today . In XXI century era of global monopoly of concentrated capital there is no notion of competition among capitalists as massive cross ownership of assets is rampant and Central Banks serves global corporate needs by printing profits they failed to extract which made XIX century local or general strikes such a power tool of labor impacting national policies oligarchs controlled. Oligarchs were compelled to make a deals to retain their competitive edge as no one was coming to the financial rescue. Today much more effective than factory or office strikes are severe disruptions of global capital system at weakest links meaning transportation and communication, money flows, all blood lines of the system.

So sad your sister’s cancer diagnosis. Heart breaking. And your daughter getting jab despite your warnings.

My daughter’s fiancé just got the vaccine after much bullying from his family. My daughter, who thought she had convinced him not to get it , now says she doesn’t want to hear any negative news re covid or the vaccine from me because she has to live with her fiancé and can’t be anxious.

We already can’t talk politics because he is an extreme liberal and we, including my daughter, are conservative.

I feel I am running out of people I can share info with or even talk to. I know many others must feel the same way.

Suspiciously my daughter was very sick days just after his first dose. Congestion, flu-like symptoms, etc when she is never sick. Coincidence?

An old friend of mine, M., was “on the fence” about whether the “pandemic” was legitimate or a fraud. When she first called me out of the blue last year to see how I was doing, she pretty much bought into the official Big Lie narrative. No surprise– her family is fairly conventional-minded. (FWIW, we’re both 66 years old.) She knows I’m a contrarian type, and she respects my intellect, so over the course of several intermittent phone chats I educated her on what I call the “Megadeath Virus of Doom scamdemic”. It was a bit of a struggle, because she would accept certain criticisms, then suddenly blurt out things like, “Well, if there’s no deadly virus what are so many people dying from?” Earlier this year, M. developed chest pains and had an emergency angioplasty with stent placement. She also has a husband with advanced MS in a nursing… Read more »

Yes apparently there are people within the army and the police who are very unhappy with whats happening. But to be realistic, the leadership in private (in public evidently they keep hopeful) expects all the laws to be passed by parliament because we’re already in a dictatorship. They’re not pessimistic, in the long run, it will be fine, at the moment its more both at the top and at the base, like a spiritual reawakening of a people: perhaps we are seeing the early signs of a regenerated humanity.

There are hundreds of thousands who SUPPORT THE FRENCH people in their protests.

Meantime, some of us are seeing Macron’s latest dictates being made due to the French Election coming up next year. To think any French person would vote for that hated puppet figure is beyond our imagination. But, the French people have to decide this.

WHY Macron made that statement is puzzling. Are there enough VAXXED French people that he may be bolstered in the political polls coming up? We don’t know. All we can hope & pray for is that the French people will wake up to this carnage of VAXXED dead and severely disabled citizens, and hope somehow a new, independent politician will be elected.

The statement was a bluff to scare people to get vaxxed. According to Alexandra Herion-Caude whom Im in touch with, it appears to have worked: millions out of fear have put their names down to get vaccinated since his speech. On week 24 there were about 60% vaxxed adults, now its reaching 70%. What we have to make people realise is the fear are the vaccinations: how will they work in a year if they are debilitated, and what will they live on when they are given everyone has been given legal amnesty from consequences?

Oh come on. If 60% of people were already vaxxed, why the need for the massive persuasion/coercion campaign? You really should not uncritically accept and disseminate figures like that. It’s doing ‘their’ work for them, and we should not trust any supposed ‘opposition’ figure who is doing so.

Passports represent the PEOPLES rubicon. If the PEOPLE submit – game over. If the PEOPLE refuse to comply, the TYRANT’s strategic objectives will suffer a setback. The PEOPLE hold the advantage of ‘numbers’, unfortunately, the TYRANT, as well demonstrated, e.g. mask-wearing take-up, has tuned the public’s psyche, over many years applying psychological warfare techniques, to obey authoritative dictates. Unless the PEOPLE can recognize, en masse, how they are being psychologically manipulated, the TYRANT will win when they apply their ultimate compliance weapon, an ECONOMIC COLLAPSE. The world is currently running on digital thin air. Winning will ultimately require a CATALYST capable of uniting the PEOPLE in a constructive and effective way to facilitate GLOBAL DECENTRALISATION. The only long-term solution to our present predicament.

Really – when was the last time the gov of any nation actually reversed a policy? Or if they reversed it, didn’t reinstate it moments later under a different name (For those about to shout ‘poll tax’ at me)? Genuine question – when? It took women decades to even be permitted to vote for the fuckers, with a terrorist campaign of burning down MPs homes in full swing. That was only permitted in the end because women were handling the homefront for four years so they had no more reason (women are too stupid and hysterical to make a selection) to refuse, but it still took another decade for it to be fully implemented, dribbed out in increments like treats to a dog.

About France: just had a long conversation with Alexandra Henrion-Caude who is one of main voices of opposition in France. She thinks that all the laws will be approved by parliament because we are in a dictatorship. So that from that point of view the protests wont change anything, but that they are nonetheless essential. But that people have to learn to say no, to not apply a single measure in their lives, to understand that all the places that will from July 21 prevent us from having access will be in totally illegality. Because the measures are illegal. That we have to continue our lives with those within the true legality. But yes, there is not much expectation here for the short to mid-term. People like her, as well as the base of the resistance, are expecting a long haul. The unvaccinated are the new Jews. Its interesting, a… Read more »

This is a data gathering and tracking system to control where everyone’s location, consumption, health condition, productivity, behaviour and more at all times.

I wondered about that too, given that they are probably the most rebellious nation in Europe when it comes to authorities. A French friend of mine in Paris suggested that’s probably because the restrictions in France were not as severe as in the UK up until now. It could also be because the Yellow Vests run out of steam after one of the longest and most violent protest post WW2 in Europe. Enfin, they are finally on board.

“The State should be subject to the law, for the law creates the State. Without law no state could exist. No nation. No county government. No international force. No state of any kind can exist without laws, for it is by laws that states are created. This maxim teaches us that, just as the state is created by laws, so the state must be subject to law. And, of course, every state should be subject to these principles of law … for only by the principles of law can we judge the state as just or unjust, wise or foolish, strong or weak.

All government rules by force, up to and including killing you if you don’t comply. Why would anyone put up with their male bovine organic fertilizer without that threat? Why would anyone ever pay a tax? But, if you refuse to pay a tax, they come to take your property. If you resist that confiscation, they shoot you.

So many have said that this or that – COVID or climate change or whatever – is the greatest scam in human history. But they are all wrong.

The single biggest scam ever is, quite simply, The Law. A peaceful people, who respect one another and have no wish to take what others have, have no need of Law.

It’s never a coincidence that one of the first Laws a society initiates is The Draft. And even though it is not consistently enforced, it is always there, lurking in the background if needed.

All Laws are covenants ensuring the society will always be able to plunder others whenever necessary – and the more insane the Lawgivers get, the greater the necessity of plunder.

Did Macron come out with the dictates, because his puppet masters perceive there’s enough Pro-Vaxxers in France….that would cause a political conflict with the French Elections coming up next year?

See how the media works hard to avoid connecting social protests around the world? It’s all about Zuma, Macron and Le Pen, and countless local squabbles. In Britain it’s almost always about hanky-panky or someone’s knickers not being fit for purpose. The spirit of Benny Hill lives forever. Funnily enough, in October 2019, the BBC was all in favour of seeking out commonalities: Do today’s global protests have anything in common? Not today. It is clear why the state-corporatist media has an interest in portraying protests as single-issue campaigns on disparate domestic issues unique to alienated and isolated populations. The last thing they want is for diverse peoples to build cross-border coalitions that unite them in fighting for livelihoods, health and children.

No one wants to think of themselves as part of the system of control and exploitation – let alone as a functional organiser and operator, or active agency, of the systematic totalitarian pathology CJ calls GloboCap ….but even the nominal ‘globocap’ precludes their being an actual outside. We live in a systematically organised social reality, reflexively and intentionally orientated toward maximising exponential profitability: but we think of it logically and grammatically in terms of mechanical and linear sequential determination and rational-causality: in terms of non-contradiction and ultimately, absolutely fixed determination of identity. Which is exactly why we are here.

Covid is irrelevant. The aim is to blockchain everyone via their “cell” phones (an apt description), on which your ‘digital passport’ resides. If no cell phone you will be forced to wear an electronic bracelet if you haven’t been injected with a nanochip. This will enable you to be 24 hour tracked, traced, monitored, ordered, transhumanised, chipped, ….. and all the rest that the digital dictatorship demands. If you disobey, you won’t get your UBI (universal basic income) or other services ……. and so on.

Here’s a different take. Europeans must feel far more “heat” in being vaxxed than in the US. Ther large geography of the US AND is one fact. But it’s “States Rights”that allows the rebellious States, like Florida, some of the Plains States, Southern states, in removing, bit by bit, these Covid mandates. It largely depends on the Governors in each state, and whether he/she has majority rule with his party in their establishment.
