Thanks Slough and I will. Although I’m not impressed at how a truck was driven through the ECHR already. Is it all meaningless?

Seems to be.

I am in a lot of groups, with thousands of other NHS workers.

Many have had word from their trusts that they will be continuing with vaxx or dismissal as it hasn’t been revoked yet. They are still under huge pressure from managers.

Some Agency workers are being treated awfully too.

The health secretary also spoke about reviewing for other variants of concern. I’m sorry, call me a tin foil hat wearer all you like, but this isn’t the end.

And if the human rights act is replaced with the new bill, this could be for everyone, not just NHS workers. And not just covid vaccines going forward, who knows what the ambiguous wording could be applied to.

And for the love of God, I cannot abide all the idiots who think that would be a wonderful thing. Think about what mandatory vaccines mean.

Anyone who thinks mandatory vaccines were ever a good thing needs to give their head a wobble. Thank god for the NHS staff sticking up for bodily autonomy. Anyone that looks at what is happening in Austria, Germany, New Zealand and Australia where a 12 year old can’t even play sport with their friends without being vaccinated should be appalled. It should be a fundamental human right to chose what we put in our bodies (and yes I’ve been vaccinated) and anyone who thinks this or any other government has our best interests at heart and that it’s about health or protecting the vulnerable has really lost the plot.

Totally agree.

Agree with excellent post above from @Turquoisesea.

Great respect for the NHS workers who have held firm in the face of this appalling pressure.

Hallelujah sense!

👏 👏 👏

If we don’t even have dominion over our own bodies then what the fuck do we actually even have in life?

We just belong to others.

The governments of these countries have seriously overstepped the boundaries of their own mandate and have forgotten the limitations of their remit. I hope the voting public kick them out of office at the first available opportunity.
