So there it is then. Grant Shapps has confirmed vaccine passports are being introduced

Not to enable other countries to enforce vaccinations for anyone arriving on their shores like some do with yellow fever. No, it's been confirmed that the UK government has decided that the only way for UK citizens to avoid 10 days house arrest after daring to have an holiday abroad is to prove your vaccination status via a vaccine passport.
Well I say the only way to avoid house arrest, there's actually another way. Pay privately for a test to prove your purity. You obviously can't use the free NHS test which is available to anyone, to have to pay privately through a select list of very specific private companies as chosen by the conservative party.


And for anyone saying house arrest is the wrong words, well the private test to escape it is actually called test to RELEASE. You get released from prison, you don't get released from a nice rest period at home generally.

 

Anything to escape this island for a bit

 

you:

 

I'm confused as to what the issue is with there now being a method to avoid mandatory quarantine when going on holiday? I hate these Tories as much as the next rational thinking person, but vaccine passports seem like good news to me. I won't be going abroad anytime soon but I'm over the moon that folks who do choose to are being given a means of not losing income and/or personal freedom when they return.

The quarantine rules will exist with or without vaccine passports.

 

Your arguments incorrect really - your making out it’s a conspiracy against the people who don’t want a vaccine but you can go to a green list country and not isolate or test at all regardless of your vaccine status. It’s based on public health not controlling people I think you need to take off the tin foil hat or just go get a vaccine lol

 

Never mentioned a conspiracy

 

So I can’t go to the corner shop without my vaccine passport or even put the bins out. That is bad.
