From The Guardian six days ago:
Hundreds protest Covid restrictions in Denmark
Hello, Rebecca Ratcliffe here, taking over from my colleague Yohannes Lowe.
AFP has reported this from Copenhagen, where hundreds of people took to the streets on Saturday night to protest against Denmark’s Covid-19 restrictions and its plans for a digital vaccination certificate.
Organised by a group calling itself “Men in Black Denmark”, 600 or so people gathered in the bitter cold in front of the parliament building to protest the “dictatorship” of Denmark’s partial lockdown.
Plans for a digital vaccine “passport” were a main target of their anger.
Like other European countries, Denmark intends to develop a digital certificate for Covid vaccination for travel. It could also potentially be used for sports and cultural events and restaurants.
Protest organisers say such a passport implied an obligation to be vaccinated and amounted to a further restriction on individual freedom. Vaccination is not compulsory in Denmark.
Demonstrators, including some wearing hoods, marched with torches in the centre of the Danish capital, chanting “We have had enough” and “Freedom for Denmark.”
Protesters carried a picture of prime minister Mette Frederiksen made to look like North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.
The authorised march was largely peaceful and there was a large contingent of police deployed.
Non-essential shops, bars and restaurants are closed in the Scandinavian country of 5.8 million people and the government has extended the restrictions until at least 28 February. Primary schools can reopen on Monday.
Young Adolph sounds like an abandoned film by Mel Brooks.. But I don't think there are many young Adolphs around, except perhaps in South America.
Cool. Thanks for the Thread
