London & Worldwide Vaccine Mandate & Passport Protests

January 23, 2021

An estimated few thousand people gathered at London’s Parliament Square in Westminster on the 18th of December 21 to protest vaccine mandates, vaccine passports and severe Covid 19 restrictions imposed by the UK government.

As protestors questioned the lack of mainstream media attention, many took it on themselves to share videos of the protest via social media. A popular Twitter user from Essex, Adam Brooks, highlighted the strength of the crowds gathered in London referring to them as the ‘majority’.

The 101 rebel MPs showed you that our position isn’t an extreme one,

I am simply here for a free society, against coercion, against mandatory vaccinations and in support for my struggling industry.#EnoughIsEnough #londonprotest

We are the majority. pic.twitter.com/OHZns2T7Zz

Via Twitter and other social media channels many protesters and observers made their voices heard, noticing that hardly any media coverage could be found, especially in one of world’s oldest democracies – Great Britain!

A protestor tweeted about the stark contrast between the actual protest turnout and the confusing narrative reported by a British media house.

Even GB news is lying to you. “Just a handful of protesters” she says, walking nowhere near the actual protest, where up to 200,000 people walked #together

Question everything. Because your revolution will not be televised.#NoVaccinePassportAnywhere #COVID19 #GBNews pic.twitter.com/oH9cKyD3B1

The Scope of European Vaccine Mandate & Vaccine Passport Protests

The demonstrations were organized by ‘Take a Stand London’, ‘Save Our Rights’, ‘The Great Reopening’ and other groups on Saturday 18^th Dec 2021. These came as a response to PM Boris Johnson calling for a discussion about compulsory vaccine mandates, just 6 months after ‘Freedom Day’ from Coronavirus!

The protest is also supported by a movement called the ‘Together Declaration’ with 1,700,000 signatures including those of MPs, religious heads, and business leaders. The movement campaigns against vaccine mandates, vaccine passports and mass testing.

Similar protests echo in France, Germany, Austria, Belgium, and Netherlands as governments reimpose sweeping restrictions on free movement in response to the recent surge in Covid cases due to the Omicron variant.

Hans Kluge, WHO Europe Director, has said mandatory vaccines should be the last resort and public confidence and trust in authorities should be considered.

Overseas Reactions & Vaccine Mandate Protests

Not only in Europe, but all over the world protests and demonstrations are being organised as people rally against governmental Covid restrictions and law changes. And some media and news platforms debate the protests.

In a stride for liberty, an injunction was imposed on the Biden Administration in the US from imposing vaccine mandates on employees of providers and suppliers of Medicare and Medicaid.

Another huge WIN for liberty!

This mandate is downright unconstitutional & the courts agree. #Vaccine pic.twitter.com/D9gUDGMoLv

More vaccine mandate protests happened over the last few months in various countries:

We will continue to cover such events and protests to keep Londoners and the world informed about the latest developments, especially as human rights of protest and free speech are under threat by proposed governmental law changes.

More UK Protests to report

On Saturday the 22nd of January 2022 NHS workers took to the streets of London to protest against the NHS Covid 19 vaccine mandate, which comes into effect on the 1st of April according to the UK government. The London Business News Blog was there live:

It was organised by NHS100K and the turnout was estimated at several thousands of participants in London alone, while protests also happened in other UK cities.

Will these rallies ever make mainstream media? @BBCNews @itvnews @SkyNews @Channel4News @Channel5N
