🚨 MPs are now debating *mandatory vaccines* for ALL people working in adult care homes after a cynical snap vote was called yesterday.

More to follow 👇
'It states in the explanatory note that a full impact assessment has been prepared (…) where is it?' @William_Wragg

'The impact assessment is being worked on' @Helen_Whately

How can MPs vote on these draconian measures without sufficient evidence?
'There are serious warnings from the care sector that the Government's plan could lead to staff shortages in already under-staffed care homes,'

@DrRosena explains why Labour won’t be supporting mandatory vaccines in adult care homes.
‘Mandatory vaccines tend to increase distrust and suspicion'

@Dr_PhilippaW draws on the findings of The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Vaccinations for All's findings that vaccine coercion leads to distrust.
'We risk going down a slippery slope to chip away at people's rights & freedoms to make their own health choices, this decision sets a precedent and must not be taken lightly,'

👏@munirawilson expands on why mandatory vaccines are a blunt tool for a complex issue.
🚨Breaking 🚨

MPs vote in favour of mandatory vaccines for all people working in adult care homes

Ayes:319 Noes:246
Impassioned opposition to this *erosion of rights* by the govt | @William_Wragg

"90 minutes on a statutory instrument to fundamentally change the balance of human rights in this country is nothing short of a disgrace."
✔️ We will continue standing up against mandatory covid vaccinations in all settings.

🚨 We've just published our latest Emergency Powers & Civil Liberties report.🚨

We detail the realities of this vast expansion of state power: secret trials, unlawful prosecutions and fines, protest bans, censorship, and more.⤵️

bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
We detail how:

➡️ 920 pieces of legislation have now been passed in the UK containing the word ‘coronavirus'

➡️Councils have issued £multi-million Covid marshal contracts, up to to 2022-3

➡️Officials have built capacity to conduct 10,000 home visits a day for travel quarantine
➡️Approx. 120,000 Covid fines issued since March 2020

➡️There's increasing disparity in fines issued, with Asian + black people disproportionately fined

➡️Police even issued a 19yo a £10,000 Covid fine for arranging a memorial for a 17yo who had died of suicide.

🚨 GOV'T MUST STOP SECRETIVE AND RUSHED COVID TRIALS.

independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
⚖️ We are calling on @RobertBuckland to:

1. Review all prosecutions heard under the Single Justice Procedure in relation to emergency Covid laws.

2. Commit to scrapping the use of the Single Justice Procedure for Covid charges.
The Single Justice Procedure means people are being convicted + fined under confusing Covid laws in secretive 'trials' without meaningful oversight or review.

It is likely that hundreds of people have been wrongly convicted under this process.

🚨 BREAKING: UK mass surveillance found unlawful by Europe’s highest human rights court.

This confirms definitively that the UK’s bulk interception practices were unlawful for decades, a finding that vindicates @Snowden's whistleblowing

⬇️OUR RESPONSE⬇️

bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/2021/05/uk-mas…
(1/5) Big Brother Watch Director @silkiecarlo: “This judgment confirms that the UK’s mass spying breached citizens’ rights to privacy and free expression for decades."
(2/5) "Today, Mr @Snowden's courageous whistleblowing is vindicated as is the tireless work of Big Brother Watch and our allies in this pursuit of justice. Mr Snowden clearly deserves the protection of democratic nations across Europe for his selfless defence of human rights."

⚠️TOMORROW⚠️

@ECHR_CEDH will deliver its final judgment on the UK intelligence service's bulk interception of communications, disclosed by @Snowden in 2013.

We brought the challenge alongside @OpenRightsGroup | @Amnesty | @privacyint | @libertyHQ | +other trusted rights groups.
Disclosures by @Snowden revealed that GCHQ was conducting “population-scale” interception, capturing the communications of millions of innocent people.

The mass spying programmes included:

❌ TEMPORA, a bulk data store of all internet traffic;
❌KARMA POLICE, a catalogue including a “web browsing profile for every visible user on the internet”;

❌Black Hole, a repository of over 1 trillion events including internet histories, email and instant messenger records, search engine queries and social media activity

BREAKING: Government scientists tracked 18+ million people to analyse behavioural change after vaccination.

“No one expects that by going to get a vaccine they will be tracked and monitored by their own Government.” - @silkiecarlo

telegraph.co.uk/politics/2021/…
Our statement:

“Millions of Brits will be disturbed to discover they were unwittingly tracked & subjected to behavioural analysis via their phones. SPI-B identified who has & hasn't been vaccinated, where people live, their age and close contacts through this digital stalking.”
“This is deeply chilling and damaging to public trust in medical confidentiality.

"Between looming Covid passports and vaccine phone surveillance, this Government is turning Britain into a Big Brother state under the cover of Covid.

“This should be a wake up call to us all."

🚨 A major milestone today as #lockdown eases for most of the UK.

But can we really call this #FreedomDay?

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9…
#EmergencyPowers are still being used to clamp down on protesters, with 4 arrested on suspicion of breaching Health Protection Regulations this weekend.

And the #CoronavirusAct remains in force, although all 270 charges under the Act have been unlawful.

Today, NHS App users can create a "2D barcode" to show their Covid vaccine status using their NHS number, name and COVID vaccination history.

While right now this will only be used for some international travel, later this month an announcement is due on domestic Covid passes.
