The police and the army are refusing to enforce the "sanitary pass", in the name of "human liberty and dignity". Both will be taking part in a large demonstration against mandatory confinement [tr: lockdown for the unvaccinated] in Vienna on the 20th November.

Only a few days after Austrian Chancellor Schallenberg mandated lockdown for unvaccinated people, political figures and unions are calling for an uprising against this "liberticide" measure, the only one of its kind in the world.

FPÖ (Austrian Freedom Party) leader Herbert Kickl has called for a "mega-demonstration" on 20th November. Soon afterwards, the president of FGÖ, the union of Austrian armed forces, got in step with Kickl and joined the movement in a letter published on 14th November, in which he mentions "defending fundamental rights and liberties". The FGÖ went on to specify that "everybody" has the right to protest, even if locked down!

The requirement for enforcement imposed by the Interior Minister Karl Nehammer has already been rejected by the police union. Besides, the Union of Austrian Armed Forces [not sure if this is the FGÖ mentioned earlier] have announced their participation in the demonstration in Vienna.

The government is in panic

This is a resounding blow to a government which, according to Austrian media, seems to be more and more panicked. According to the weekly Wochenblick, Hermann Greylinger, the president of social-democratic unions (FSG) and of the police union has made it completely clear that the police do not think they're able to perform enforcement. In his letter, Manfred Haidinger (FGÖ) adds that "we are making it clear in this communication that taking part in assembly is a legal right, one which is specially protected, and which is acknowledged in the draft ordinance. Participation in assembly and freedom of movement in the whole of Austria are allowed". Even though unvaccinated people are advised to travel in private vehicles.

Finally, the communication notes that "forbidding a planned meeting of citizens, or forbidding an assembly of political parties has been recognised as illegal" by the Vienna administrative tribunal.
