I finally got round to watching you Frankfurt video this morning. I see how you hinted at the similarities of the “period” back then to what we witnessed recently (and still witness). I’m sure many others have said, as I did at the start of the “othering” phase of the WuFlu years…… if anybody has ever wondered what they would have done, how they would’ve treated others (friends, family members, neighbours) during those war years in Germany…. They need look no further than at the start of the 🥕 rollout and the industrial scale demonisation of those who wanted to make intelligent informed choices based of evidence & facts! Thank you for your honesty and for making this video. It helps others to know that they were not alone in their choices. ❤

Thanks James for getting the ball rolling on this one, I wish I had, had the sense to record what happened to me and my husband on our trip to Greece, same as you we paid for the tests to prove negativity (th unvaccinated didnt have to), on arrival in Greece the unvaccinated were sent down a different queue (not many of us), we were once again tested, even though we had negative tests, and told that if positive we ould have to quarantine, we were sent on on our way the test results would arrive within 24 hrs!. Whilst in Greece we were refuse entry onto public transport, ferries, etc, we were not allowed to visit museums, even an open air site. When the weather was warm we could sit outside to eat, but one night the rain was torrential, we were not allowed inside at any Taverna, Bar etc and so had to sit outside under an umbrella to eat. What was shocking was first the people Brits included who stood in line with their vaccine pass, whilst we were sent away, not one, not one remonstrated on our behalf, not one gave any empathy. I asked the guys checking the passes, did they not know their History, did they not understand this was what happened in Nazi Germany, In South Africa. I was just told to go away those were the rules. Like you we had to buy another test to return. We were negative,those vaccinated did not have to test even though it was acknowledged by our Government that the vaccinated could still transmit. At the Airport I was abused and shouted at by an AEGEAN AIRLINES member of staff because I was not vaccinated, she subjected me to questioning in front on the other passengers before she would allow me on the plane. Once again no one did anything they just looked away. Once home we once agian forked out over one hundred pounds for the day 2 day 8 or whatever test. That night in the dark we were visited by wardens who were very threatening demanding to know we were not leaving our home etc. The next day the Police visited to check we were not leaving our home. Can I remind everyone we had tested negative and being subjected to this, the vaccinated who could still be spreaders were free to move about. I asked the Police woman why this was happening, she said it was just her job. After going stir crazy and the day 2 tests not returned by day 5 we decided to cough up the 80.00 each for an early release, we were allowed to drive and walk through a shopping centre to Boots to do this. We once again tested negative and were freed. So if we could be freed by a test at day 5 by paying extra why did we also have to pay for a day 2 and a day 8? Money making and extortion thats why. I wish I had filmed all this, I also wish I had filmed being asked to leave a book club I have been a member of for 8 years because they found out I was unvaccinated. Lessons learned. Its easy to understand how the people of Germany and the world allowed what happened to a minority happened at the behest of a Government. People are basically tribal and sheep and will do what they are told. Governments and the medical profession are corrupt. No one is to be trusted.

Terrible time but people's behaviour still baffles me. A person I know who has had Covid twice, the last time being less than a fortnight ago and ironically after coming home from mainland Spain, told me yesterday that she is about to have her booster jab. I asked her why and she came out with the same old spiel about how the jab doesn't prevent you from getting Covid but that it stops you from getting really ill and hospitalised. I told her that I've had Covid twice this year and I had a sore throat for two days and that was it. I also told her that I was unvaccinated and that our symptoms were obviously no different. When I said that I therefore didn't see the point of why ppl have a vaccine, why inject yourself with something you know very little about for no gain, there was nothing, no real response at all. Just disinterest. It was and still is, almost as if the entire population had/have stopped thinking rationally. As you say in the video about flying home and that it was BS how you were tested but the vaccinated were not, when will people put the very simple dots together and realise the whole thing was and continues to be - a nonsense?

It is crackers how people have gone on with it. Just after his second, within a day, my Father had a massive heart attack. He's fit as a fiddle. Has two allotments and owns a border collie - if you know what it's like to own one...you know! He still refuses to admit that it's anything to do with it. He's a staunch watcher of the BEEB and reads the DM. Just total brainwashing.

@@TimesWithJames Sorry to hear about your dad. Mine is the same, he won't believe anything unless it's on the beeb. He has 2 allotments as well! He's going for his 5th jab this week. The more I say against it, the more determined he is to have it. :(

Have watched your other channel since 2013 James, just found this channel. I’m not surprised to see that your attitude towards this nonsense completely mirrored mine, I’m unvaccinated and to be honest, I just didn’t think the stress was worth it, so I didn’t leave the country until 2023.

Ready salted here (the only one within my immediate family and friends). Well done James for getting away, I didn't bother, just couldn't face up to playing their stupid games and the potential aggro that might entail. Will hopefully get away next year - as long as it doesn't go mad again this winter.

Love El Medano and Los Abrigos (we normally stay in Golf del Sur). Visited (in May) for 1st time since 'the madness'. I know what you mean about being made to feel 'unclean' because although we're both 'Prawn Cocktail' (personal choice given our age/health) I'm mask exempt so wasn't allowed on planes/in airport etc. Was so awful to see so many restaurants/shops closed down and boarded up. Not sure if we'll go back to Tenerife again as I suspect they will re-introduce mask mandates.

Imagine if others held the same view of gas plumbing as you did about the medical profession. Would you want 'balance' and for people to have opinions about changing their own fittings based on dr.google searches. Your basically saying your opinion holds equal weight to medical science yet you have no training or experience with it. Would you want a doctor to have a similarly weighted opinion of gas plumbing as you? Congratulations on your impending fatherhood and i hope that experience helps you become a more mature individual with more societal empathy.
