So not kids atm ... kids are tested in schools to protect their education and health of the school community not so their parents can go an get pissed Seriously need a face palm emoji here | |||

Some places will require it, some won't. 100% there are companies that have said they will require proof of vaccine so something has to be easily available, doesn't mean it has to be mandatory."

For example someone who is blind cant have a driving licence and thats it more than reasonable. its also funny these people only seem interested in discrimination when its their own life that might be infringed upon - don’t see many posts shouting s loudly about the lack of wheelchair access, gender pay gap, lack of diversity on company boards etc I've been told that as a wheelchair user, I shouldn't expect to be able to do the same as others. That if buildings are inaccessible, I should just accept it. That if I'm left on the train platform because they can't be arsed getting the ramp out, that's okay. That if the pavement is blocked by parked cars, I should simply sit and wait or turn back. Very few able bodied people notice or care about accessibility for disabled people and yes, it is somewhat ironic that many of those people are now getting their knickers in a twist because they might not be able to go to a concert or to the pub. I can't get into a number of theatres or pubs due to the steps and lack of accessible entrance and no-one gives a shit. I've had my vaccine so it's taking a lot for me not to feel a smug sense of satisfaction, to be honest. It's not nice to be discriminated against, is it?! Welcome to our world, everyone!" Exactly! I would like to think people have started to realise how difficult our world is to navigate for many but sadly they don't. On the London tube I find it quite sad that there are signs everywhere saying please remember not everybody is able to move as fast as you please be considerate and patient! I'm glad to see the world is waking up but it is sad that we need these signs. | |||
