FFS. Why can’t they protest vaccine passport legislation (which likely won’t pass in the Parliament, as Labour has announced they’re against it and there might be enough Tories opposed to it as well to shitcan the whole thing) with a, let’s say, less insane argument?

“We feel that these vaccine passports, while well-intentioned, are a grotesque infringement on civil liberties. Furthermore, we have no guarantees that such documents, whether physical or digital, won’t be exploited nor do we have any guarantees that what’s being proposed as simply a temporary solution won’t evolve into a permanent state of affairs, where people have privileges granted to them on the basis of their health status. We believe that those with opinions differing from the majority point of view will invariably end up being relegated to the status of second-class citizens, which is repugnant and abhorrent and goes against our tradition and is antithetical to our way of life.”

Look….I’m an American, sitting here in Czech Republic, and I just came up with that off the top of my head.

And all without sounding like an escaped mental patient.
