Coronavirus restrictions are due to end on June 21st. UK prime Minister Boris Johnson is on the record as saying that there will be no return to lockdowns thereafter. So why are local authority’s recruiting covid-19 marshals on contracts that run to 2023?
Data released today reveals that nearly 40 million UK residents live in covid free areas. 25 million Brits have had two doses of a vaccine and University College London is claiming that the country reached herd immunity against covid some weeks ago.
Yet according to The Mail Online, councils are set to employ “armies” of covid marshals to begin patrolling UK town centres and parks from July. According to The Mail:
Hertfordshire County Council is among those advertising for Covid marshals, with the local authority offering a contract worth an estimated £3 million to a provider that can supply 60 marshals from July 1 until January 31 next year.
The contract also comes with a possible one-year extension to 2023.
In its description of the marshals’ duties, the contract notice reads: ‘Provide practical support to aid and encourage compliance, such as dedicated staff in public areas, business support, or support for individuals.’
It continues: ‘Introduce measures to aid public and business awareness and understanding of regulations and guidance.’
The Telegraph newspaper revealed today that councils in Darlington, Portsmouth, Cornwall and Carlisle have extended covid marshals contracts beyond July.
According to recruitment website North East Jobs, Covid Marshals will be used to advise the public on social distancing rules and other coronavirus measures in public areas.
They will also patrol the city, manage queues and one-way systems, to prevent mixing between groups in public spaces. The site states that a marshal employed by Sunderland City Council can earn £20,092 to £21,748.
Are plans already in place for lockdowns this coming Autumn and Winter? Will the threat of the Indian double-mutation variant be used to bring restrictions back in and force businesses to close again?
UK Chief Scientific Adviser Patrick Vallance has said several times that social distancing and mask wearing might become the norm during Wintertime, to deal with respiratory illnesses in general.
Recruiting marshals just at the height of summer, like the face masks were introduced, both totally unnecessary. As the likes of Professor Dolores Cahill and others have stated, Coronaviruses cannot survive past the end of April, or as the weather becomes warmer, so blatantly obvious to anyone that all measures are about control and compliance, nothing to do with anyones safety.

Perhaps we should stop paying for it all. Withhold Council Tax legally by using Escrow accounts until the council stop wasting our money on anything that is not in our favour: i.e Covid Marshals, LED Street Lights, 5G, Police brutality and sifting through our own rubbish.

Are these the modern day equivalent of the Infamous “Kapo’s” in World War 2 ?
In the concentration camps Kapos were recruited from the rest of the prisoners and given preferential treatment and extra food in return for them keeping the rest of the prisoners Inline which Included beatings and sometimes even killings of their fellow prisoners.
When the camps were liberated many of the prisoners caught and killed both SS Guards and Kapos – they did not distinguish between them.
In 1950 Israel passed a law regarding these Nazi Collaborators and some 40 trials were held over the next few years, many of these Kapo’s recieved 5 year prison sentences and I am aware of at least 1 death sentance handed out.
The worst Insult a Jew can give to another Jew is call them a Kapo.
Ok so we cannot realisticly compare a Kapo to a Covid Marshall but the similarity ie recruiting citizens to oversee other citizens cannot go unnoticed.
One day they will be tarred with the same brush as the rest of the oppressors.

Just as Jewish Kapo’s dealt with their own people then those “covid marshals dealing with their own community, nationality are modern day Kapo’s.
The job they do is oppression of human rights. Plenty of people will do that job as it is easy and many need the money.
No doubt they will look for people of a large build and low empathy so they can look intimidating just like those who patrol town or city centres as enforcement officers looking for criminals who are dropping litter on the floor.

Large frame? They’ll also need to be MMA fighters. I remember readin the following quote from a biography of the great Miles Davis written by the English Trumpter Composer Ian Carr. “you can get tired of anything, even of being scared”.

This is how the elite circumvent the law, and why corporations and private companies are issuing rules which have no basis in law, and they lie about it, saying things like ‘it’s now law to wear a face mask’.

5th April 2021 – Boris “Pinnochio” Johnson – Speaking in response to questions, he said the Government is “some way off finalising any plans” on Covid or vaccine passports, highlighting “ethical and practical issues” surrounding vaccine certification.
3 weeks is an eternity in politics.
Report
The Government put out the tender for the vaccine passport back in June 2020 and the contract was signed in early December. Its been in the plan all along. Its only a couple of months ago that Michael Gove was telling us all very piously how the Government had absolutely no plans whatsoever for a vaccine passport which would infringe civil liberties and would be completely un British. You cant trust a word they say.

“to aid and encourage compliance”, “to aid public and business awareness and understanding of regulations and guidance.” Typical government gobbledygook.
Allow me to address your rhetorical questions. “Are plans already in place for lockdowns this coming Autumn and Winter?” Of course. It has all been carefully planned from the word “Go!”.
Will the threat of the Indian double-mutation variant be used to bring restrictions back in and force businesses to close again? Yes. DId you notice the sudden change inMSM coverage. A couple of weeks ago it was all about Brazil being a danger to the world. Now they have dropped Brazil and chosen India as more fertile terrain. (In the meantime, the BBC (not the BBG) has started their expected environment/climate change campaign with a couple of articles about Brazil and the Amazon.)
