France to Scrap Vaccine Passports and Mask Mandates – Well, Almost, It is France
Rules requiring people to show a COVID-19 vaccine passport to access venues and to wear a face mask indoors will be lifted in France on March 14th – 11 days time – French Prime Minister Jean Castex has said.
“The health situation is improving,” Castex told TF1 television on Thursday.
In a remarkable stroke of luck for the Government, the rules are being lifted about a month before the presidential election.
Masks will however still be required on public transport, and vaccine passes required to access elderly care homes. They couldn’t possibly let go of them entirely.
Has Macron decided the unvaccinated are adequately “pissed off” now? Has sufficient punishment been meted out to the obstinate and recalcitrant? It appears so. For now.

Profanity and abuse will be removed and may lead to a permanent ban.
It’s not over until the vaccine free can enter on the same terms as the vaccinated.
Absolutely.
And that is the part that I think he will hold on to for 2 reasons – A) to pacify those who got jabbed – that they got jabbed for a reason, otherwise why did they do it? and B) to maintain the con that there was a deadly virus that only a vaccine could contain and all must be vaccinated.
World covid politics now in tatters – just as it was from the get go with the fake case numbers and fraudulent PCR testing.
Yes and with attention turned elsewhere and the vast majority no longer inconvenienced we will find it a difficult thing to overturn. Effectively condemning us.
It’ll be law suits.
I do need a new suit now we’re back in the office
This is a long game.
They’ve shown their hand. We know their nature and what they are trying to do.
I’ll oppose this authoritarianism and contempt for humanity for the rest of my life, and so will very many others.
We can’t let them win – there is no living with them.

Just possibly there may be worries about long term side effects.
Again correct why can’t everyone else see it for the fraud that it is? Never ceases to amaze me.
It’s not over until a new variant turns up and/or there’s an uptick in cases and the restrictions/mandates aren’t reintroduced.
And if nuclear war in Ukraine doesn’t deliver they will need something to get everyone back in thrall to the fear again.
Mark Dolan posited this very thing on his GB News show last night. I know I am in danger of coming over all GB News superfan, but they seriously are the only ones calling it as it is.
Food shortages is my bet – each way bet on cost of living crisis and hyper-inflation. Although with cash being too infectious these days and not having much of it to burn – I’ll have to throw my iPhone on a bonfire
If you throw it on a bonfire, it will produce noxious gases. Throw it in the sea and it’ll leach toxins. Bury it and it’ll poison aquifers.
Nonetheless, rejoice that the life of its byproducts is likely shorter than nuclear waste.
GB news have been vaccine fanboys until very recently when some sceptical vocies have been allowed.
Have you tried UK column news?
https://www.ukcolumn.org/
Yup I enjoy watching them, they can terrify you with the things they expose. YouTube ‘we are change’ I find are a good Global News source along with Russell Brand with his witty take on things.
Do you watch their evening output? Dolan and Wooton make a massive case for standing up for the unvaccinated and really call out the lies and misinformation about the unvaxxed and support bodily autonomy. They, so far as I can tell, are the only ones on a UK television channel who do so, in stark contrast to the other news broadcasters.
It’s all becoming rather strange.
priceless – will likely achieve far more than H+M pulling their merch from Russia!!!
I’m feeling shockingly neutral about the threat of a hydrogen bomb detonation. After seeing how the clown planet has evolved in the last decade, I’m not sure I really want to see how it goes over the next one.
You read my mind BP – I had that very same thought last night. Not only do we seem to face the prospect of being plunged almost overnight into a version of the 1970’s (early part of that decade very dismal in my neck of the woods) but we also face the prospect of being turned into slaves of the state with no freedom of choice at the same time with all the wokeness and the virtue signalling and fascism erupting everywhere. Bearing that in mind, the prospect of the big bomb seems like a way to escape all that.
UK Column are also doing a very fine job.
The only one that goes to the crux of the issue (WEF) is Mark Steyn. Neil Oliver is a brave warrior type, Braveheart etc but Mr Steyn has a funny way with words.
Horses for courses. I like Neil Oliver – Mark Steyn doesn’t have same appeal for me – on the odd time that I catch Farage I have to concede he is quite good. Dolan and Wooton never disappoint. But then those are my tastes. Others might not share them.
The daytime offering on the other hand needs a lot of work!!
Actually daytime for me was Russia Today…Oh wait!
Why feel you must apologise for having some common sense, and thinking as an individual? That’s the problem – people are too ready to say they’re sorry for thinking outside the box.
Absolutely right..
“It’s not over until the vaccine free can enter on the same terms as the vaccinated”
and RETURN on the same terms too (even if the second bit isn’t up to Macron).
Don’t think many of the pissed off unvaccinated will be voting for him.
Its not over until the clotshot-free can live exactly as those who have taken it and it is clear that this outrage can never, ever be repeated. Otherwise, its just a temporary reprise.
all are vaccine free, it’s not a vaccination,
At best a risk prophylactic injection for the very sick.
/pedantic
An experimental prophylactic I would suggest. As you say at best, but of course it also kills and injures.
I think they have another virus ready to go late Autumn.
Unless it was one waiting in one of the labs in Ukraine!
Correct
Yes. And the same worldwide. We’re all free, or no-one’s free.
Whatever they do from here, these fascists must pay. I will never forgive or forget and I suspect most of us feel the same.
‘You dirty unvaxxed can do anything now, except get on the bus and visit your mother in her dying days.’
As a filthy unvaxxed, I can get on the bus now, although the window-lickers always terrified me more that the ‘rona. I can’t go to visit my mother-in-law in central Europe, unless of course I fly to Budapest and get the train to my EU country of choice. Of course I can fly back to the UK from anywhere in the EU without issue because the dreaded plague is obviously neutralised the second I land in Hungary.
You’ll need proof of having tested ‘negative for Covid’ for travel between countries in Europe if ‘unvaccinated’. Apparently you can travel to Norway and Iceland without this requirement, but you’ll need to take a PCR before your return to the UK, and have a pre-purchased PCR waiting for you upon arrival to the UK.
On the train no one will ask for anything. And that’s what he said.
Where’s your postcard from Portugal, with details of, for example, from which companies you purchased your PCR tests? You’ve had over 2 weeks to tell us. You can hardly claim you have been short of time, with your numerous other posts on here.
I’m sure many of us want to know how we can travel all round Europe just by “using our imagination”. Unless that’s it – imaginary holidays.
There should be a Hashtag, expose and remove all WEF members from Parliament.
Call me cynical, but promising to lift Corona measures before an election and vocally shelving this promise afterwards has occured elsewhere, in particular, in Germany.
If the French fall for this they, and any electorate, deserve to be treated with the contempt which will be their due.
Unfortunately, the ones who don’t fall for it will cop it too.
The timing is no coincidence.
And in any case, not a single country in the world has stepped back from the principle that, if illness from a respiratory virus increases they will deploy some or even all of the measures again. All they are conceding is the spectacularly obvious: there is at the present time no unusual or even usual seasonal threat of illness to the population.
Furthermore, they are not backing down from the false premise that COVID jabs have solved the problem and save people, despite the equally spectacularly obvious evidence to the contrary.
This is true of Macron and every other national leader.
Hungary has election on 3rd of April and it will shock you but suddenly the government thinks lifting all restrictions on 7th of March is something good and required.
I am indeed very shocked – who would have thought it???
“A remarkable stroke of luck…”
Indeed, a very considerate virus.
What a coincidence that the French have the chance to kick Macron out in a couple of months.
Amazing how he can escape the consequences of what has been criminal misconduct so easily.
They might have the chance.
I don’t think they will take it. Would be very surprised if after the election it was anything but the status quo ante.
Then they deserve everything they get, just sorry for those that get caught up in it all.
I have family members living in France.
On a recent visit home they made a point of inviting everyone to visit them in France – well, they made a point of inviting the jabbees to visit.
They did not invite me.
Formerly, it was me who was invited on a regular basis.
I saw a lot of ‘Macron’s rules’ being rigidly adhered to even though they were visiting in the UK. For example, masks on faces as soon as they crossed the threshold of the front door. I had to point out to them that A) they were outside and should be breathing in fresh air (ie “you are safe”) and B) this is UK where masks outside are only for the very fearful. We went to an exhibit; the French dwelling visitors spent the entire visit to it masked to the eyeballs, with me in bareface.
It is possible that I am in some way being “punished” for not being jabbed, not mask wearing, and not going along with the whole covid bollocks. Human nature being what it is I’m not ruling it out.
Silver lining, you now know better who deserves your attention.
Don’t I just!!!
You’re not being punished – you are displaying characteristics that will ensure your survival. If, as it looks from some interesting pre-print journals, the jabbed are becoming sterile and two double jabbed will lead to infertile children (can’t cite my sources but have seen some of this on Jessica’s substack and Igor’s) then our kind will remain and thrive.
I have seen that – I know of double jabbed going through IVF treatment – if they do manage to conceive I almost fear for the end product – how damaged will it be? how may years will it take to manifest itself?
Yes, being unjabbed we will manage to remain and thrive – but I would qualify that by saying, for now, because sooner or later it is hard to avoid the conclusion that another virus of some kind will be released and another jabbing onslaught will begin.
I congratulate myself on an almost daily basis for managing to avoid it this time around, but am I going to have to construct myself the 21st century equivalent of a “priest hole” in which to secrete myself when, if that should happen, the jabbing squads begin to go door to door??
No, they won’t do that. It’s much too costly. There will be other, more subtle ways, of either punishing you or making you comply belatedly Ways that don’t take nearly so much effort or manpower.
I live in France, and to be honest I’m still staggered by the compliance of the French. Especially to someone as hated as Macron. The creep has trashed France in his 5 years of power.
The trouble is, anybody who thinks getting rid of him at the upcoming election will solve anything is deluded. The globalists have a vice like grip on France, and they’re not going to let it go. There’s not one candidate who won’t carry on Macron’s policies if he gets the shove. The French elite are all neo-liberals..
‘The French elite are all neo-liberals.’
A bit like the UK then.
They don’t like being heckled these days in the UK even though you can get footage going back decades where it was par of the course. I think people need to ramp up the heckling especially calling out those who are members of the WEF. If it is just a harmless conspiracy (making there World a better place) they they will have no problems discussing it, and hopefully no microphone problems.
I’ll edit your post a bit – “making the world a better place for everyone”
I think WEF only wants to make it better for them – and the rest of us can jump off a cliff
”Elite”? I haven’t seen one who fits that description. It’s what they call themselves, after all. We should indulge them in their delusions.
Hmmmm, I’m Canadian and think the same of Trudeau – he’s not going anywhere in any hurry, or if he does, then a Globalist WEF clone replaces him. I love the truckers for what they’ve done and shown the world … but Canada is done.
Was reported as 35,000 trucks – where did they all go? I read here last night that the truckers are regrouping … but it’s all a secret where, and exactly what they are going to do … in case the Police find out and attempt to stop them.
Fantasy or Fact? You decide!
Imagine they had all the help Ukraine is getting, he’d be out in days, dead or alive, better the latter.
Take a look at Rebel News about the trucks that were ”confiscated”, impounded, and how badly many have been damaged. Yes, they ARE regrouping – and I don’t suppose they’re ready to talk about it yet. Would YOU?
YOU decide.
Trudeau has done for Canada…..
Not yet – perhaps not ever. Perhaps he’s done for Truedope.
I gave you an uptick for your final sentence – except for the last four words. Canada ISN’T ”done”. There’s still time to claw it back from the brink – but defeatist talk just isn’t going to do it – not when you’ve only just had so many noble people giving their all for you and me and people like us.
The REALLY worrying bit about it all is that my family members living in France think Macron is “amazing” and if they were not ex-pats they would vote for him. (Had to really grit my teeth hard when they said that)
I am very sorry for what has happened to France George and for what has been done to the French people, some of whom have resisted, but others who caved in as soon as the tyranny began – TBH, I’m not even that sure that I would want to visit it now or would enjoy it as much as I did back then in pre March 2020 times.
Did you ask them WHY they think he’s ”amazing”? I always find that when you ask the question, people like this don’t actually have an answer. At least it makes them attempt to put their addled thoughts in some kind of order.
Utterly bemuses me that anyone could possibly think that wearing a mask outdoors serves any useful purpose. I saw an old friend outside a shop recently and she had one of those fancy patterned cloth masks that was so badly fitted that all it was doing was muffling her voice and I struggled to conceal my amusement- what on Earth did she think it was achieving?
Agreed. It merely broadcasts to everybody else what an idiotic, deluded, science-denying coward you are. I’ll bet there’s a direct correlation between anyone who wears a mask and BBC/other mainstream news outlets viewing.
I know! Breathe in the fresh air – great lungfulls of it!!!
As she is a friend, why didn’t you ask her, politely? We need to make people question themselves. If she said ”because it makes me feel safe” – then okay. It’s her prerogative. And perhaps next time she’ll actually give it some thought.
Quelle surprise. The fat Nazi Schwab has already phoned the fragrant (not) Jacinda and told her to immediately relax restrictions after Trudeau gave WEF global leaders a bad name by goimg full tyrant. Now the cocky little French mother-lover has had a similar call.
Mother lover.. ????
‘Blimey Charlie’ as my grandson would say; aged 2 and three quarters.
He’d fit right in at MI5/6
“We exaggerated to keep the fear going, but you stopped listening, so it’s your fault.” Said Sage. The excuses for their hysteria are rolling in.
Our fault 300 deaths didn’t turn to 6000 deaths, with or of of course. Or just with the PCR test!
Never forgive these people until they receive justice. Never.
I suspect that justice will be a long time in coming. They are after all the establishment and therefore the normal rules of justice, fairness and even-handedness do not apply.
Iraq War comes to mind, and a few others highlighted by the hypocrisy over this latest War.
Yes. And not “Truth and Reconciliation” – a more thorough version of Nuremberg 2. Far too many got away with their crimes.
I know that might look unattainable. But I don’t think we have a choice. W have to send the message that what they inflicted was intolerable.
That should be Nuremberg 1 (and the de-nazification trials that followed it). They didn’t do the trick.
Hopefully they’ll get their just deserts. That is what the Court of Public Opinion is doing.
I do hope the French eject that nasty WEF turd from office.
Meantime, back in Washington DC, the Zombies have taken over.
Zombie [ zoom-bee ]
noun
A zombie is an undead but unalive corporeal revenant created through the reanimation of election fraud. Zombies today are most commonly found running Western democracies.
Revenant [ rev-uh-nuhnt ]
noun
A corpse reanimated by election fraud, an undead but unalive being.
(Just look at the three fu*king cretins in Washington DC, you could not make them up.)
It’s not only that restrictions are being lifted 24 days before the first round of the election. The announcement that they’re being removed was made today, a few hours before Macron declared that he will be a candidate.
In other news, get this from Reuters: “UK vows to sanction Russian oligarchs, ponders law change“.
They can’t even put a clamp on Russian money in London. Funny how they managed in the past with Iran. They can talk about it though, and they can say they’re thinking about doing it to some extent, when they get round to it. It’s fairly obvious they’re worried about the collapse of their banking system. Or perhaps more exactly, they know it will collapse and they want to have at least SOME control over the timing, because, y’know, most of us need to sleep for several hours in each 24 hour period.
If they do decide to go for a no-fly zone, you have to wonder how many of their planes these suckers will actually get off the ground. They’ll be too busy “vowing” and “pondering” to know what’s about to hit them.

“Today the European Commission is proposing to extend the EU Digital COVID Certificate by a year, until 30 June 2023. The COVID-19 virus continues to be prevalent in Europe and at this stage it is not possible to determine the impact of a possible increase in infections in the second half of 2022 or of the emergence of new variants. Extending the Regulation will ensure that travellers can continue using their EU Digital COVID Certificate when travelling in the EU where Member States maintain certain public health measures. The Commission is adopting the proposal today to make sure the European Parliament and the Council can conclude the legislative procedure in time before the current Regulation expires. Commissioner for Justice, Didier Reynders, said: “We cannot predict how the pandemic will evolve, but we can make sure that citizens continue to benefit from a certificate that works and is accepted wherever they go. Without this extension, we risk having many divergent national systems, and all the confusion and obstacles that this would cause. The EU Digital COVID Certificate has proven an effective tool to facilitate safe and free travel. While I am looking forward to the day when it is no longer… Read more »
Bastards.
A “health passport” to keep people healthy.
Sorcery lives. ‘kin hell.
Yeah.. they must think we’ve just fallen out of a tree. It never was about health, and still isn’t.. total population control is what they’re after and nothing less..
COVID = Certificate of Vaccination ID
It was always their intention to control us. The mistake is thinking things will ever return to normal.
Sound to me like they’re sh*tting themselves over what Russia is doing.
That was exactly ONE MONTH ago. I have already replied to you that the best thing you can do is lobby locally to try to get your government not to support this. There will be several EU States not happy with this going forward. Its encumbent on us to try to stop France/Germany driving this through. Its clearly totally unnecessary now.
Slightly off topic but this is worth 8 mins if you’re wondering how the hell we got to where we are.

Will, your cynicism is well placed regarding the lifting of measures before the election.
He will bring them back out after getting re-elected at the first opportunity.
Hopefully, the French citizens won’t fall for his ploy.

Thomas Renz: “I Wanna Know Who’s Going to Jail for Murder First”
The data Pfizer was forced to release showed a 3% mortality rate for the vaccines, which is 12 times the COVID death rate.
Well, I’m not an optimist, by any means. And I rarely look on the “bright side of things”.
My sister lives in Paris. She couldn’t make it for Christmas but came over to England at the end of January (when the psychopaths allowed travel).
We had a week of visiting pubs, restaurants, public transport, shops, stores, family and friends – all unmasked and without showing a sani-pass equivalent. Ever. My sister was in shock.
In St. Pancreas, as she headed towards the Eurostar departure, she said to me: “You know what David, England has been a breath of fresh air!”
I didn’t know what to say or how to react, I was taken back.
After almost 2 years of rallying actively against the Dystopian tyranny our Authoritarian Insect Overlords have attempted to ram down our collective throats … to hear England is a “breath of fresh air” really threw me.
Anyway, just thought I’d share.
See my post. Compared to France just about anywhere is like a breath of fresh air right now. Well except for Canada, Australia, NZ, Germany, Austria, Italy, Greece; and I suppose China, Ukraine, Russia. Malaysia, Thailand, India . OK there are quite a few. But France is BAD!
Not so in Thailand ok masks are encouraged to be worn especially so in big supermarket and buses but most people wear them under their chin.
Relatively free movement even fot the unjabbed
that is very good to hear.
I have not checked entry requirements recently, they were still quite tortuous a few weeks ago, any improvement recently?
As my dear old wonderful Grandmother used to say to me “Dear, there’s always someone worse off than you.”
The difference between our experiences with our relatives visits was the fact that your sister might have gone home having “seen it” – seen that she was being played by the French government, that the French are being subjected to unnecessary draconian rules – she might now be thinking differently about those.
My relatives just stuck to the “French rules” when in the UK – they didn’t “see” it – I think they have so bought into his fear porn that they believe that covid presents a dreadful danger and that they have to keep masking up to “protect” themselves from it.
A couple of corrections. The Vaccine pass is to go entirely. The Health pass remains for health care premises and long distance public transport. Health pass use to be double jabbed , or prior infection, or antigen test 24 hours prior. Its unclear whether the double jabbed has morphed into treble jabbed ( same as vaccine jab). Health care premises are I believe hospitals, clinics and care homes, although local clinics of all kinds have never applied this. This probably means that to visit say your sick wife/husband in hospital unless you are treble jabbed , and boosters have to be mRNA, you have to stick a kebab stick up your nose every day. Masks are health care ( see above) and long distance travel , TGV/airlines( ie not local/commuter travel). Nothing whatsoever about entry/exit conditions for travel. Which remain ‘prison state’ as of today for total unvaxed ( ie none , single or double jabbed cannot leave France unless its to an EU state unless they have a ‘valid reason’ which does not include ‘just because I want to’. ) Mrs Peyrole remains extremely pissed off, to such an extent that we will be looking to sell up and… Read more »
Excellent insight, thanks, Mr and Mrs Peyrole.
I would also not be able to live in such a country. Especially when it is now apparent what sheer abuses of civil liberties and human rights the government is capable of, and looking to other countries which have a much more sensible approach and lenient set-up regarding restrictions ( or lack thereof ) right now. I could not live with the ongoing uncertainty of “will they/won’t they?” for the foreseeable future and the amount of anxiety that would bring. It would really do a number on my mental health and we only get one life, so I will take quality of life every time, even if it means the huge upheaval of having to move country. And if Micron honestly thinks that relaxing ‘most’ restrictions just before an election will magically make all those that hate and oppose him suddenly vote for him then his naivety and arrogance are off the charts! After the way he’s treat his citizens he should be ousted then hung, drawn and quartered, the psychopathic little bastard!! I’d love it if the people of France were allowed to go full Medieval on him! lol
Don’t you live in the Netherlands? EU Vaxx Pass in use there? Sounds like just another prison to me!
“People travelling from within the EU/Schengen area who can show proof of vaccination can travel to the Netherlands. Travellers from outside the EU/Schengen area must always show a negative test result as well. Even if they have proof of vaccination.”
“If you do not live in the EU, you are subject to the EU entry ban and cannot travel to the Netherlands, unless:

No the vax passes have been dropped here. I linked the news on this a while back. I went to the cinema like a normal person yesterday and today I will go to 2 museums, all places I’ve been barred from for ages unless I had the QR code vax pass. It’s only for large events that it’s in use but that isn’t a concern of mine.
I am so sick of this covid aka great reset nonsense. But I undertake as a duty to inform people about facts about cheaply, effectively and qucikly curing this so called virus symptoms. Search for c19ivermectin on your search engine. On that website you will find as of right now there are 142 studies. 93 of them are peer reviewed about curing covid19 with ivermectin. These are undeniable evidences. Get your ivermectin before it is too late https://ivmpharmacy.com

Polling says that “pouvoir d’achat” (“purchasing power”, i.e. real income) is the top political issue for the electorate in France, but I’m not sure that that’s actually so or that even if it is it still will be at the time of the election. The war in Europe may well be bigger. In any case, the war may by that time already have had a large effect on incomes in France – for example if NATO has started fighting Russia directly, or if the banking system has collapsed. This is quite aside from the emotional effect on people of videos such as this https://twitter.com/i/status/1499497097728561154 (Warning: this is a horrible clip of the deathly results of the Russian bombing of a residential area in Chernihiv – don’t watch it if you would rather not see it.) I don’t fancy Le Pen’s electoral chances one bit. She may not even get into the second round. Then again, Macron has been made to look a fool over his Russia policy. Whether any candidate might be viewed as actually talking sense about the war that voters might want to get behind is an open question. The idea that “Russia has bitten off more than… Read more »
Our Hotels are already full of people who came across the channel.
The international bankers puppet has been given instructions as Johnson and many other of their puppets to ease the leash on the necks of the complaint while they ramp up the next level of fear/ obedience about their war in the Ukraine!
It’s a classic (well, an “operant”) behavioural conditioning technique – on-off, variable schedule.
The next level of fear and the next level of obedience are both going to shock a lot of people.
It’s not over until there are NO vaccination requirements.
I don’t really care: the French have made slaves of themselves and they’re stupid enough to vote for Macron again in a month’s time. As an unjabbed, free-woman, I don’t intend ever visiting the country again.
Yep bang go my skiing holidays. Incidentally is there anywhere one can go skiing without encountering all this nonsense? Legitimately that is I know plenty with phoney “vaccine” passports/certificates.
Can I go there without being jabbed or taking a pointless test? If not, none of this means anything to me.
On another note, how is using radiation on peaceful protesters in Australia even legal. Reading about kids getting strange burns etc. These evil… Need ‘taking out’.
Here’s film:
MORE RADIATION BURN VICTIMS FROM MICROWAVE ENERGY WEAPON USED ON CANBERRA FREEDOM CONVOY (brandnewtube.com)
It’s been done in NZ too, I hear.
He’s still a bastard and the French would be insane to vote him back in.
Only suspended not got rid of. Vaccine passport required for health care. My husband has radiotherapy every day 30 sessions takes 10 minutes. In order to access this treatment he has to have a daily PCRtest at his own expense 43 euros per day. The fact that we can now have a cup of coffee without being vaccinated is not much help!
Madness!
