🇫🇷 Yesterday the French National Assembly prevented the reintroduction of the vaccine passport for minors, international, & domestic travel after an amendment was put in by @dupontaignan. A major defeat for despot @Macron and a major win for the people!

Triumphant scenes Tuesday (July 12) night in French parliament as Marine Le Pen’s National Rally and Jean-Luc Melenchon’s La France Insoumise defeated Macron’s “COVID pass” for travel in and out of France beyond July 31.
Opposition MPs from across the political spectrum—including the far-right Rassemblement National and the left-wing coalition Nupes—joined forces to remove it from a COVID-19 bill.
The atmosphere in the chamber was likened to a football match.
