I didn't listen, is he having a moan about Boris wanting everyone to have to have a vaccination passport to enter a voting booth, whilst simultaneously being against ID for voting?

Oh wait that's not Boris, it's Keir.

Voter ID is anti-democratizing. It's basically a way to keep non-white British types from voting.

Surprised you'd be in favour of it, given how much you love democracy.

I didn't express a view either way, I simply pointed out a seemingly contradictory position.

I'm against vaccination passports. As for voter ID, I'm not sure. It's got nothing to do with non-whites. I don't know why everything has to be about race to you. Non-white have access to identification, every bit as much as I do. You already have to be on the electoral register to vote, which means you have to be legally registered as a voter. This already discriminates against people who are not on the system. But those who are not on the system, they either don't want to vote (or they would get on the system), or they are here illegally, in which case why should they vote? I don't see why voter ID is such a problem.

I think Macron said it best on this, speaking to the anti-vaxxers in France. "If you don't want to get vaccinated, you don't have to. But, we've been locked up for a year and a half waiting for the vaccine to free us. Now it's here, and now it's your turn to stay home."

Either get a vaccine passport or get a note from the doctor saying why you can't be vaccinated. Otherwise, fuck off, I don't want your germs.

Of course you didn't. Wouldn't want to hear about how both the PM and Deputy PM/Foreign Secretary went on holiday during a foreign affairs disaster, then stayed on holiday while things got even worse. Or about how a couple of months ago the PM said "there's no path to victory for the Taliban."
