"Covid Status Certification" is now how you spell "vaccine passports" 🙃 A disturbing U-turn in the roadmap. And it is precisely because of the exclusion, discrimination and privacy concerns that millions of us will never accept them.

If you thought the £200 fines for demonstrators was bad... try 10 year prison sentences. Because the #PolicingBill would create an offence of putting someone at risk of annoyance or *disease*. A vote for the Bill is a vote to put protest rights under lockdown again, and again.

It is difficult to think of another time in modernity when people in Britain could be arrested under a law enforced by a Minister rather than voted for by their elected MPs; arrested under the same law they are protesting; and arrested simply for the fact of protesting.

400+ people had charges overturned after covid laws had been wrongly applied. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. Fines issued under covid regs have no safeguards at all. We estimate thousands of fines have been issued wrongly. Every single lockdown fine must be reviewed.
