Tony Blair: "Inevitable" Global Vaccine Passports Should Be Implemented Now

Authored by Steve Watson via Summit News,

Former British Prime Minster Tony Blair has said that the British
government should take advantage of the fact that it is to preside
over the G7 this year to implement a global vaccine passport system.

Blair’s globalist institute issued a report urging the UK government
to “place the creation of a global Covid-19 travel pass as a key item”
on the G7 agenda.

In an interview with the Telegraph, the Iraq war architect himself
stated that vaccine passports are “inevitable” and that British
government needs to “take the initiative” using its “fortuitous” G7
presidency, and implement a “critical first step” toward global
adoption of the scheme.

Blair argued that without a global standard on vaccine passports,
there could be two problems.

    “One is that everyone just does their own thing, which is much
more chaotic and difficult to manage.

    Or secondly, there’s a set of rules in place that you may not be
that happy with,” Blair said.

What a horrible prospect, sovereign nations ‘doing their own thing’!

Blair added that an international vaccine passport scheme is essential
to “re-connect” the globe.

    “It’s better to have common rules and a common verification
system, so that people know what your disease status is and know it
with some validation,” he said.

    “It’s going to be a new world altogether,” Blair proclaimed,
adding “The sooner we grasp that and start to put in place the
decisions [needed for a] deep impact over the coming years the
better.”

Blair also praised Joe Biden for “completely [understanding] that you
need global coordination.”

Blair has been pushing for vaccine passports ever since the pandemic
began. Last April he declared that the situation is going to lead to
“dramatically increased technological surveillance,” and suggested
that “under the right conditions, this is a price worth paying.”

Blair is correct that the push toward COVID passports has become a
juggernaut that now appears unstoppable. Everyday there are new
reports of countries, airlines, and businesses declaring their
intention to implement some form of vaccine passport system.

He is also correct that at the moment it appears to be somewhat
uncoordinated and disparate, rather than any kind of standardised
plan. However, the EU is debating a standardised scheme, and airlines
seem to be falling into line behind the IATA Travel Pass ‘digital
passport’ which shows passengers’ proof of Covid-19 tests and other
entry requirements when flying.
