    The paper work you refer to above are forms of 'taxes', I hope you are not meaning that to carry a vaccine passport is to introduce a new type of tax??

    Requiring people to carry additional forms of personal identification, is legal but unlawful, since it contravenes common law. It is similar to apartheid in Africa, Soviet Russia or Checkpoint Charlie etc., Have we dropped discrimination laws now?



    How you equate apartheid which discriminates on colour grounds with a vaccine that you are entirely free to not have escapes me.

    Checkpoint Charlie is another strange insertion should we build a wall across Southport for you?

    It seems you want the freedom to infect or be a burden on our NHS, personally i wouldn't give you that freedom.

    Oxymoron- a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction.

    How can something be legal but unlawful?

    Legal - permitted by law, lawful
    Unlawful - not permitted by law, ilegal

    Yes, if it is likely to kill you or cost the NHS £0000's to cure you on return.

    A yellow fever certificate is compulsory for many countries, without one you won't get an entry visa.

    Incidentally, many of the vaccinations I had for Kenya were either free or available on prescription, some you paid full price for. Asking the reasoning behind this, the response was if there is a cure for it the vaccination is free/prescription as the cost of treatment outstrips the cost of the vaccine, if there isn't a cure then there no cost in curing you so no benefit to offer it free.

    Well I suppose out of the the umpteen thousands of folk that have seen something since time began if only one of them is not a nut case then most probably given the odds of the millions of stars planets and universes that are still being discovered there most probably is something in it, I think it’s stupid to think we are alone.

    As local suggests, you might want to check those definitions.

    I'm guessing you've never heard the old joke about the difference between illegal and unlawful?

    I did look on Google which gave definitions but also 'similar'!

    Perhaps this sad news of an unnecessary Southport death will help defeat the anti vaxxers


    https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...dies-of-covid/



    Fitness enthusiast, 42, who rejected vaccine, dies of Covid

    John Eyers had been climbing mountains four weeks before his death in intensive care.

    US horse owners face ivermectin shortage as humans chase unproven Covid ‘cure’

    In Las Vegas, the V&V Tack and Feed store posted a sign saying the drug would only be sold to horse owners.

    “MUST SHOW A PIC OF YOU AND YOUR HORSE,” the sign read.

    Interesting that the anti-vaxxers might imbibe this anti-parasite stuff.


    Surely something targeted at parasites puts them at great risk.
