A stunning new set of vaccination figures from the UK with more than one million people being jabbed in just two days taking the overall total of people receiving a first vaccination to 14,556,827 or 22% of the entire population. 534,869 of these have also received a second vaccination.
All other metrics including infections, hospitalisations and fatalities are down by around a quarter on the week.
Ireland added an extra 8397 to its overall total of 256,681.
Meanwhile, behind the scenes the UK government is working on an online version of an immunity passport to allow the tourist industry to take off again this summer. Fancy Greece this summer ? You won’t have lost your marbles if you do …

Good evening Kate, I know it’s not important to you but after today’s figures, there’s almost 117,000 deaths from the virus in the UK. The UK death rate is over twice that here.
You were bleating on earlier about some poll showing the Tories ahead of Labour. It’s funny how you haven’t written about his approval ratings in a while. I wonder why. Would it ever be that he is -16% in the latest ones old boy?
Marvelous.

Good to see a majority of players and officials not taking the knee before the rugger games this weekend.
It comes as Priti Patel , the Hindu UK Home Secretary , also confirmed she wouldn’t be doing the knee while attacking the political violence of BLM.

“A number of items were seized by Gardaí. These items will now undergo analysis,” the spokesperson confirmed.
According to Mr O’Brien, Gardai and detectives seized oils, butter, teas and other edible products he sells.

I see the New Zealand government has just ordered a country-wide snap lockdown after only a few new cases were detected there. One new case triggered a lockdown in most of Australia a couple of weeks ago and yet another lockdown was imposed in the state of Victoria a couple of days ago. And all this is during the summer season. Seems to me that the two countries are looking increasingly like ‘cautionary tales’ for having taken the control-freak, elimination approach to the virus.
Perhaps what’s going on is that those governments are attempting to manufacture consent for the blockchain digital ‘health passports’ in coordination with all the other countries as part of this ‘Great Reset’ They began with an extreme totalitarian-like approach and it’s set to continue until the objective is achieved. “Dear citizens, only the vaccines and digital health passports can break the never ending cycle of snap lockdowns!”

Surely even the DUP aren’t stupid enough to believe the brits would build a channel tunnel to NI.
It’s almost as bad as the Irish believing ” the EU have our backs ” …
As distinct from the EU being glad to see your backs.
But the EU are not… which makes that comment appear silly.
