I was informed that these were OTT comparisons to NZ
Vaccine certificate will be central to the new ‘traffic-light’ system – RNZ
“It is that sort of comparison that causes the opponents of the current Lockdowns to be ridiculed. And no, you won’t be able to convince me that basically I am (and just about everyone I know) is just the same as the Nazi SS.“
It’s certainly time to re-visit this goodie, even if she has resigned, because luckily you’ll still be able to laugh without a vaccine certificate.

Yeah, I didn’t think it could possibly happen here.
Have been doing a crash course in the state of the world over the last week and unhappy to admit I was wrong. That is the direction we are heading right now unless enough people realise and pull us out of it.
Not impressed with any of the politicians on this one, they are all complicit.

One might care to watch the video mentioned by Lucia yesterday, because that’s where we are headed..

Pffft…. New Zealanders? Bwhahahahahaha.
No, at best it will be a campaign of passive civil disobedience in which the rules are flouted. Ironically it will be led by our criminal class, starting with the gangs, who are already aware that they have their own “Green Light”.

Heh. Beloved wife just got a call from her mother in Chicago asking what the hell is going on down here. She’d heard via the Polish News Radio station in Chicago. Upon being given the details Babcia was quiet for a bit and then said, It’s like when I was living in Poland in 1949″.

Both my parents would have been horrified.
For the readers, my Mum grew up in Communist Poland and my Dad was deported by cattle car to Siberia by the Russians for being an enemy of the state when he was a child. Makes me somewhat hardcore on this.

Just another ‘major’ announcement that remarkets the same old narrative in another package. Some people still actually believe that if we get to 90%, the borders will open and we will all live forever, happily ever after.
BTW, one might note the narrative that ‘it’s up to us’ implicitly means it’s our ‘fault’ if we have a covid Xmas (we will anyway). This neatly shifts any responsibility, or blame away from the government.

Nothing from National’s Judith Collins or ACT’s David Seymour, both completely and utterly useless.
Have linked to the BFD version of the press releases, the comments are good.

If only we had a party like the Liberal Democrats here in NZ. Here is their Covid policy statement.
