Sorry link was removed but it it is on the El Pais website with headline Spain will not require coronavirus tests or quarantines for travellers arriving with ‘vaccine passports’

Interesting to see in this article that Spain are introduction Digital Green Certificates to open up tourism this summer and believe it could work with countries that have a similar system with a reference to discussions with the UK. I think if this system gets support more widely in Europe there will be pressure for the UK to follow. Clearly this still requires CTEA to grasp the opportunity if it arises.
Morning all some reality mentioned here that it's all about contracts which it is . Somebody said derampers won't have a voice until they won't which is bang on. My criticisms will disappear when the company announces a decent contract simple as that. I stand by the facts of the matter the app apparently was ready last June there was loads of interest and zilch sales.
I agree with you JAdam that Guys comment was immature and ridiculous which we can 100% agree on as not a penny has been generated in a year.
As for the car analogy if you put your car up for sale had loads of interest but didn't sell it you'd be probably a b/s tter and a timewaster. So again we can agree on that as well indeed there maybe a comparison with ctea. Quite obviously if there was loads of interest but mobile players, customers from trials Tec then they would have monetized some of this . They haven't . You may well say that this approach is tiresome but it 100% true and extremely relevant .
To tail on the end of that, the primary logical reason would be because they're only looking like being adopted now.
Companies may have expressed interest, for example, to get their staff back to work, but nobody would have wanted to take that first step and face the wrath of condemnation.
Now, it's looking more and more like an inevitability. As soon as this gets the green light, that interest stands a chance of becoming contractual agreements.
I back the team to deliver here.
Ps great spot below on NI BBC and the link.
Derampers will always have a voice until they don't. Any contract to get the ball rolling and their entire argument is pretty much dismantled. And if I'm wrong then I'll die on my sword.
GL all
What did Guy say last year " there's loads of interest" there certainly wasn't . That's not libellous that true. Let's not hide behind this we expect as shareholders for bods to deliver this lot certainly haven't . They may yet but so far they haven't earned a bean despite having a year to do it , all facts whether we like them or not!
JAdam certainly very true that everybody starts somewhere. Some succeed and many more fail. That's not being premier c just a fact. Now where I fundamentally disagree is that past performance is not a guide to the future. Whether it's the bloke that never buys a round in the pub, German foreign policy before the second world war or more pertinent to this an honest BOD on aim. This lot have really struggled with delivering for years I don't see why they would start now! Nevertheless I believe that if they do then it can rise pretty quckly.
Here we go ... ;)
Well said JAdam and good luck to us all.
The SP has not been going nuts since the spike awhile ago. You can talk all you want on this BB about being ahead of the curve, being in the right place at the right time etc They`ve had a year to sort this out and haven`t. The only change here is that the govt are talking about passports. It would be possible if CTEA had won contracts after Guy said there was loads of interest which clearly there wasn`t , are they likely to go from no paying contracts, trials that don`t lead anywhere etc to a million plus pound contract with the govt. Everyone lets get real here its very , very unlikely.
My gut tells me we might be heading for a strong Friday afternoon won’t be sub 3p for long
