We have reached what George Orwell warned about in 1984

Sky News host Alan Jones says we have reached what George Orwell warned about in 1984 after the government released a “vaccine passport under another name”.

“I now notice that every vaccinated Australian can access a high-tech digital certificate to prove they have had the jab,” Mr Jones said.

“If you have, you will automatically be issued with a certificate through your Medicare account, which you can easily access and save to a mobile device.”

According to Mr Jones, this is government “again not telling the full truth”.

“This is not about proof of vaccination … this is a vaccine passport under another name,” he said.

“We have reached what George Orwell warned about in 1984 where, ‘Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture repainted, every statue, street and building renamed, every date altered and the process continues day by day … nothing exists except an endless present in which the party is always right.’

“I am a very positive person, my negative question to you is this: are there enough of us to fight this continuing erosion of freedoms?”
