https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/57905459A capacity crowd of 140,000 attended the British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday - the largest crowd for a sporting event in the UK since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. There, all adults had to provide proof of full vaccination or be in possession of a negative test.Laughable that will have taken place.

This is my point…might be allergy for some tinpot nightclub in some back water town (not sure doorstaff will bother either) but large outdoor gigs won’t bottom themselves…bigger things to worry about, more important things to worry about. Nobody at Silverstone seemed to be arsed either…if you’re worried, don’t go. Nobody is making them…

Quite interesting wasn't it. Needed a negative lateral flow test for entry. You can just enter a negative result on the app regardless of the result with zero verification.

I’m sure someone will come on here and tell us silverstone was a hotbed of Covid blah blah but I agree, a system that allows you to just put whatever you want seems pointless…as have most of the rules…

Interesting there has been zero feedback from these events. Good decision to not introduce them but have zero faith in a possible introduction another time.

Might have something to do with them tanking in the polls. Would have achieved nothing in controlling Covid, good decision for all of us.

Cynically I don’t think they were ever a serious consideration and the cancelling of the idea is a good way of changing the news agenda from a tax hike.

The Covid passport nonsense has only ever really been a bullying tactic to frighten people in to having a vaccine…if anyone genuinely feels safer knowing people surrounding them have had the vaccine then I’d argue they probably never feel safe anywhere. Similar to the deaths reported just now on the news…any death recorded in which the poor soul tested positive within the last 28 days…test positive this week, gone by next week, killed by a bus the following week…get that included in the figures heir Johnson… The Covid passport would’ve served zero purpose…having been to three events ‘requiring’ a Covid passport I can hand on heart say that worrying whether and checking whether someone has a vaccine was the least of anyone’s worries, nor did it make the event any more or less safe…not to mention security seemingly not that arsed.

They were always gong to change their mind. It's what they do best.
Boris has spent his life saying one thing and doing another.
