One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that there is an undercurrent of authoritarianism in society at large. There will always be those who desire to bend others to their will. The psychopaths and the narcissists. This Covid scare has brought them crawling like cockroaches into the open enabled and encouraged by a government that has trashed our liberties for the illusion of some temporary safety. The government and their enablers in the media have behaved like an abusive spouse, gaslighting the population with their exaggerated figures, lies and subversive propaganda and among all this, suitably encouraged, we have the petty tyrants who think that they should tell others what to do and how to behave – even to the point of what they should put into their bodies.
Nearly half of care home staff won’t take the coronavirus vaccine, with bosses desperately calling on ministers to make jabs compulsory among healthcare workers.
Those staff quite rightly do not wish to become part of an experiment (or are concerned about possible side-effects). I am with them all the way. I will not be taking this vaccine either and for the same reason – there is no long term data on any potential side-effects. This is not a conspiracy theory, nor is it anti-vaxxer rhetoric. It is a perfectly reasonable stance to take. And we have dominion over our bodies. No one has the right to tell us what to put into them.
One care home owner claimed if they got to such a situation, they would feel obliged to disclose the low take-up not only to family members but also the local authority, adding it wasn’t clear who would be liable if someone were to fall ill.
No one, you idiot. No more than anyone is personally liable for someone contracting influenza. Also, the vaccine does not stop contagion, it merely reduces the effects of symptoms in those vaccinated.
As a result, there are growing calls to make it a requirement for such workers to take the jab in a bid to win the war on Covid-19.
At the risk of going all Godwin, it’s less than a century since the world recoiled at a regime that indulged in enforced medical experimentation and here we are with people thinking that it is now a moral thing to do.
Anyone who advocates for enforced vaccination is objectively evil.
What’s the care home going to do when the majority of their staff have resigned, rather than be part of this mass experiment?
Oh wait: you are forbidden from resigning, you will work as you are told.
How shallow the pretence we have left slavery behind. How quickly it is embraced.
And how revealing this mass resistance to the ‘vaccine’ already has them panicking.
The vast majority of Westerners have spent the last seventy years enthusiastically encouraging government to prohibit the ingestion of certain substances – for your own good.
That’s only a short step away from government MANDATING the ingestion of certain substances – for your own good. Shut up and roll up your sleeve!
Someone saw it all coming:
What is involved is not a minor but a major step along the road towards the brave new world of Aldous Huxley. If we here in Parliament do not maintain the vigilance which is the price of liberty, who else in this country will do it? Not the Government, not civil servants, not interested pressure groups, but only we hon. Members on a free vote.
I am astonished that those of my hon. Friends who so often expound the virtues of freedom and who are so often astute to attack hon. Members opposite for any incursion of freedom do not realise just how important even this small step is. Once that barrier is well and truly down, once the thin end of the wedge is in place, what other of our human activities, as the right hon. Member for Down, South (Mr. Powell), with his customary eloquence, said, will not shortly be the subject of well-meaning legislative interference? My hon. Friend the Member for Twickenham (Mr. Jessel) called it a small freedom to surrender. I reply that it is all the more precious because we have so few freedoms, big or small, left. I for one do not see why we should not defend the small freedoms just because there are no big ones left to defend.

NI peeps tend to be more anti-authoritarian, plain speaking and pragmatic than GB peeps – maybe due to ongoing ‘war’ with ira since RoI/NI split
Huxley’s ‘Brave New World
‘ – the aim of IEF’s Agenda 2030 “Great Reset” and path we’re on

Much of the Groundwork for this was laid in the 1960s or 1970s
Very interesting link! Also shows how dismal the quality of contemporary MPs is..
Employees must be vaccinated – bonanza day for ‘ambulance chaser’ lawyers
We don’t know yet if that is the case. At present we know asymptomatic do not spread. If vaccined can spread we’re in a worse situation as “Typhoid Mary’s” created
Like you I won’t be taking based on my risk/reward cost/benefit analysis. One key factor being I have had one cold in last 25+ years and no other bacterial/viral illnesses. Even when Mrs Pcar, mum, brother etc ill I don’t catch.
Be ‘unclean’, ‘unhygenic’ (unless surgical procedure); buy a dog – boost your immune system
Do I mask, sanitise trolley, hands….. etc – No, never have
You may remember I called it as a “bad Flu nothing-burger” in late February. I’ve removed “bad” since age cohort revealed
Indeed
