Apprentice star Ryan Mark Parsons antivaxxers 'have no right to go to pub' and are 'dead wood'

Apprentice star Ryan Mark Parsons has said people who refuse Covid-19 coronavirus vaccines "don't have the right" to go to pubs and restaurants.

Speaking to Richard Madeley on Good Morning Britain, he also said he would "cut people off" if they weren't willing to be vaccinated - and described them, as "dead wood".

His comments came after a GMB survey found that one in five 18-29 years olds will either refuse to take the vaccine when offered or are undecided.

Ryan Mark said those who refuse the jab "do not deserve civil liberties".

"I tell all people under 30 - anybody I meet - to get the jab," he said.

"As soon as I am called, I will be getting my jab. At Twickenham, thousands of young people stepped up and got the vaccine to protect others.

"If they are not going to go out and get a simple jab to protect others, then they have no right to go to the pub, to go to the theatre, to go to a restaurant.

"And they deserve to be punished. I have told my friends this as well.

"In fact, I have blocked my friends who are not getting a jab. They are dead wood in my eyes. I am not going to take it."
