I think the globalist may have gotten a little out over their skis. It’s starting to look like they are pushing their plans for world domination a little too soon and folks aren’t quite ready for it.

Anti-Vaccine Passport Protesters Storm French Town Hall, Pull Down Macron Portrait


Quote:Around 300 anti-vaccine passport protesters stormed the town hall of Chambéry, denouncing French measures to implement a vaccine passport.

The group had gathered in front of the courthouse at around 2 p.m. on Wednesday before heading for the town hall.

After noticing that the door to the town hall had been left open, the protesters entered, yelling various slogans, including, “No to the [vaccine] pass,” and “Macron must resign!” French broadcaster France Info reports.

The protesters then took down the official portrait of President Emmanuel Macron, a symbolic gesture that was also seen in late 2019 when climate activists stole the presidential portraits from some 130 town halls across France.

“The city of Chambéry condemns with the utmost firmness this intrusion,” the mayor’s office said in a statement, and added that it was not “tolerable to attack republican symbols and the symbolic place that is a city hall”.

According to France Info, the demonstrators only remained in the town hall for 10 to 15 minutes before departing. They then continued their demonstration in other parts of the town before attempting to march to a nearby expressway road, but were blocked by local gendarmes. It was the third protest against vaccine passports in the city in a week.

The protest comes just days after an alleged arson attack on a vaccination centre in the municipality of Urrugne in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques county.

Philippe Aramendi, the mayor of Urrugne, said: “It may be too early to know if we are dealing with anti-vaxxers, but if they are, it is saddening.”

Last weekend, over 100,000 people took to the streets to protest France’s vaccine passport policy, which will see people required to present a health pass to access certain businesses such as restaurants or engage in various forms of travel.

Business owners that do not check for the health pass could also be punished under the new policy, with fines of up to €45,000 (£38,487/$53,100) and a year in prison.

PICS: ‘Liberty! Liberty!’ – 160,000 March Against Vaccine Passes in France


‘I Thought We Won the War?’ — Thousands Protest Against ‘Fascist’ Vaccine Passports

Quote:Following Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s announcement that vaccine passports would be required for nightclubs and other public venues, thousands of Britons protested in London to demand a return to freedom.

Amid worldwide demonstrations against Chinese virus lockdowns and vaccine passports on Saturday, thousands of protesters gathered in London’s Trafalgar Square.

One protestor told Breitbart London that she had never attended a protest in her life until this year, saying: “The vaccine passport system is the final straw, it’s the thin end of the wedge”.

“The funny thing is, is that all the conspiracy theories that exist keep on coming true.”

“Deaths have dropped, people are getting vaccinated, and in theory, that’s supposed to protect us and here we still are. I see no end to it, they are never going to let go of the powers that they have stolen, they are loving it too much,” she said.

A young woman said that she was specifically motivated to join the protest because of Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s vaccine passport plan for nightclubs and public venues, saying: “You can’t strip us out of society, we are all humans here.”

Another protester told Breitbart London that he was not a so-called “anti-vaxxer” and had indeed already had one dose of a coronavirus vaccine — but he insisted that “I will not show my papers when the state asks for them because it has no right to do so.”

One woman said that she attended the protest to stand up for her freedoms and that she didn’t “believe the bull**** we have been fed for the last eighteen months.”

She said that vaccine passports are “fascistic”, questioning: “I thought we won the war?”

“I thought we won the Second World War but the Nazis still seem to be in power,” she lamented.



The mass demonstration in London on Saturday was mirrored throughout the world, with large-scale protests being staged in France and Australia.

An estimated 161,000 protesters demonstrated across France on Saturday against President Emmanuel Macron’s proposed vaccine passport plan, which would require health passes for many aspects of French life, including for pubs and restaurants.

The legislation, which is set to be approved this week, would also mandate that healthcare workers be vaccinated as a term of their employment.

In Paris, police fired water cannons and tear gas to disperse the large crowds.

In Sydney, Australia, riot cops once again clashed with protesters, who took to the streets of the city after its draconian lockdown restrictions were extended, despite only eight Covid-related deaths in the state of New South Wales having been reported during the latest outbreak of the Wuhan virus.

There has been growing opposition in Britain to the idea of mandating health papers domestically, with the opposition Labour Party actually coming out against the measure — a significant move, as the left-wing party has mostly backed the Tory government’s lockdown diktats throughout the pandemic.

Labour has said that they would favour public venues using rapid lateral flow testing rather than checking for vaccination status.

More than forty Conservative MPs have also rebelled against the government and signed a declaration from the civil liberties campaign group Big Brother Watch, declaring that they are opposed to “Covid status certification to deny individuals access to general services, businesses or jobs”.

Following the protest in London, Tory MP Tom Tugendhat wrote on social media: “Vaccine passports risk a social credit system of control. If we need a vaccine for events like a party conference or a nightclub — why not to travel by a train, or go to a university lecture or a shop? What other choices will result in denial of service?”

It remains to be seen, however, if the tentative alliance between the Labour Party and the rebel Tories will be enough to defeat Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s parliamentary majority and pass his vaccine passport plan.

Watch: Things Explode in Australia Over Tyrannical COVID Orders


Quote:As I wrote yesterday, Australian officials have lost their minds in regards to COVID mitigation. We are talking about a nation that has averaged zero deaths from the coronavirus over the last seven days. Yet, because of a small number of cases originating in Sydney, cities are re-entering lockdowns with a demand for three, yes three negative tests to leave one’s house to basic functions.

This kind of irrationality serves no one. Per my piece, the idea that Australia is just uniquely good at lockdowns doesn’t pass muster when you compare them to European nations that took the same path but saw far worse results.

Rather, other explanations likely exist for the low COVID impact in the country. Perhaps it’s because it’s an island with closed borders (unlike, say, the United States or Germany)? Maybe it’s due to Australia’s position on the globe or something to do with their climate aside from just raw temperature numbers? We’ve seen countries in Africa with similar climates also experience little impact from COVID despite having scattered mitigation and few vaccine doses. Or perhaps it’s because those African nations and Australia make heavy use of certain malaria medications we aren’t supposed to talk about?

I’m not claiming to have a definitive answer. What I am saying is that what Australia’s tyrannical leadership is doing makes no sense. You can not lockdown for forever, especially when deaths are quite literally nonexistent and cases are rare. COVID will always be with us, and the vaccines protect against the much-talked-about Delta variant. Setting an impossible standard by which to abuse people is disgusting no matter which government is doing it.

That reality isn’t lost on the citizens of Australia, and things blew up in a big way yesterday. Massive protests and scuffles in Sydney were caught on tape. Here’s one such scene.



This isn’t going to be popular in some circles, even on the right, but I believe there are times where it’s morally justified to push back against the government. What’s going on in Australia is one of those times. In short, the police are the bad guys here, abusing people and beating up women for daring to exercise basic human rights. If this were happening in China, there’s be headlines about it how horrific it is. But because it’s happening in a supposedly civilized, free country, excuses are made instead.

Those chanting “you serve us” are correct, though, no one in the Australian government seems to care about that. In the end, the only way to stop this is to stand up and make it unsustainable for these government officials to keep doing what they are doing. That may be ugly at times and produce videos like this. It may involve disobeying the police and other authorities, but in this case, it’s completely justified.

No citizen of any country should accept this kind of behavior from their government.

Adelaide authorities say they will use CCTV surveillance and shop purchase data to enforce contact tracing and quarantine


Quote:In Australia, announcements have been made just this week that credit card data trails and CCTV surveillance footage will now be used for contact tracing.

South Australia State’s capital Adelaide will go into a seven-day lockdown and in announcing this, officials there said that in order to more efficiently implement their contact tracing scheme, they will use QR scan information to determine people’s location.

In addition, the authorities will also be accessing people’s bank account details and CCTV cameras, while restaurant owners are said to be “aware of this” and working very closely with the state.

Although these latest measures might seem draconian, they are not surprising in a country that boasts having “very sophisticated contact tracing.”

This means that tracking of people and collection of their data from a variety of sources is widespread – but any “sophistication” seems to end there, as there have already been cases of abuse of data supposedly harvested only for public health purposes, to then be turned over to the police investigating their unrelated cases; and there have been some rushed attempts to retroactively write contract tracing into law to avoid legal trouble down the road.

Regardless of all this, some Australian states are still championing contact tracing, crediting it for the country presenting itself as a “test case” showcasing the spread of the Delta variant among Australia’s “largely unvaccinated” population – which also has low case numbers – thus providing “clean data.”

So far, the accepted “wisdom” of how the virus spreads and what represents risky behavior has been to avoid indoor gatherings; but now, some scientists are looking to suggest that outdoor transmission is also becoming a problem, and single out Australia’s “well-resourced contact tracing teams” in helping test and prove this claim.

Once again, this time in the state of Victoria, contact tracing that employs QR codes, CCTV and ticketing – though people’s banking details are left out here – is said to have provided good information on the spread of the Delta variant.

And, the notion of outdoor transmission (which, if it becomes COVID “canon,” would further restrict (unvaccinated) people’s activities though various restrictions) is being brought up as a real possibility.

“There’s been a lot of reports of, ‘well, we’ve never heard of outdoor transmission’, a lot of that is because (across the world) they haven’t got the very sophisticated contact tracing that we’re now doing across Australia, and in Victoria in particular,” said Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton.

Many large mass protests have been going on worldwide for the past several months. Anybody seen anything about it in the American press?

[crickets]

No, they're not biased. They DO know that if the pictures and stories about what people are doing worldwide were shown here, it might give people ideas....... You know, be leaders instead of followers.
