A “Careful and Limited” Christmas
Ministers from all the UK nations met yesterday to agree plans for the festive period. According to the Cabinet Office, they haven’t yet reached an agreement, although it tried to spin this as “progress”:
Welcoming the good progress made by all administrations over the past few days to design a single set of arrangements that can apply across the UK, Ministers reiterated the importance of allowing families and friends to meet in a careful and limited way, while recognising that this will not be a normal festive period and the risks of transmission remain very real.
As such, Ministers endorsed a shared objective of facilitating some limited additional household bubbling for a small number of days, but also emphasised that the public will be advised to remain cautious, and that wherever possible people should avoid travelling and minimise social contact.
The Sun was one of several papers briefed on the plans under discussion:
What Brits can do this Christmas:
It is believed a limited number of households will be able to meet up indoors including at the pub
This effectively scraps the rule of six over the five-day period
The relaxed rules will likely come in on Christmas Eve through to the Bank Holiday on December 28
All four UK governments are working on a plan that will allow Brits to travel to meet family
Social bubbles will have to be announced in advance and social distancing is still in place – so hugs are still banned
Assuming the four nations can agree this ‘Christmas bonus’, are we supposed to be grateful? As the Mail on Sunday‘s political columnist Dan Hodges pointed out on Twitter, 12 months ago the idea that the Government would be “allowing” us to spend Christmas with our families and loved ones would have been unthinkable. Have we really been so cowed by the Government’s lurch into authoritarianism that this is good news?
Pubs and Restaurants Bear the Brunt Again
Once again, the hospitality industry is to bear the brunt of Covid restrictions after the national lockdown ends on Dec 2nd. The Telegraph has the story:
Hospitality businesses in Tier 3 will only be allowed to offer takeaways, while those in Tier 2 will only be able to serve alcohol with “substantial meals”.
The measures – which are significantly tougher than under the previous tier system – were described as “catastrophic” by pub chiefs on Sunday night, with a warning that one million jobs are now on the line. While there is bad news for pubs, other restrictions will be lighter than under the old tier system. All shops will be allowed to open in all tiers, together with gyms and places of worship, while recreational sport, including golf, tennis and organised team sports can resume. Cinemas will be allowed to reopen in Tiers 1 and 2, and the advice to “work from home if you can” will remain across the country
What’s particularly cruel about this decision is that there’s no evidence that pubs and restaurants are a major source of infection. According to PHE’s own data, only 4% of COVID-19 outbreaks can be traced back to the venues. On what basis, therefore, is the Government decreeing that non-essential shops, cinemas and gyms can reopen, but pubs and restaurants in Tier 2 and Tier 3 areas have to remain closed?
Opposition is mounting on the Tory back-benches, with the 70-strong Covid Reform Group set to oppose the measures (see round-up below). But that will be small comfort to the affected businesses, particularly as Labour has said it will vote with the Government to get the new restrictions through.
Kate Nicholls, chief executive of UK Hospitality, said the news was “far worse than anyone could have anticipated”.
She said: “This a cruel decision and it just feels as if the whole sector is being thrown to the wolves.
“If the tiers had stayed as they were until March, we were already expecting 94% of businesses in Tier 3 and 74% of businesses in Tier 2 to go to the wall. Now we have restrictions that are even worse.
“We make 25% of our profits in the run-up to Christmas and the Government is taking that away.
“This will have a catastrophic effect on a large number of businesses and all those jobs that were furloughed will now be lost. You are talking about the prospect of a million job losses and 30 to 40,000 premises closing their doors for good.”

Papiere Bitte!
Several readers have drawn our attention to a new Government scheme which enjoys the backing of the former Secretary of State for Health, Jeremy Hunt. Details in the Mailonline:
Britons are set to be given Covid ‘freedom passes’ as long as they test negative for the virus twice in a week, it has been suggested. The details of the scheme are still being ironed out by officials in Whitehall, who hope it will allow the country to get back to normal next year.
To earn the freedom pass, people will need to be tested regularly and, provided the results come back negative, they will then be given a letter, card or document they can show to people as they move around.
The certificate would be stored on a phone, according to sources, and would allow people to live a relatively normal life until the Government’s vaccination programme gets up to the speed. It would even allow Britons to get away without wearing a mask, it is thought, and visit family and friends without the need to socially distance.
A source told the Telegraph: “They will allow someone to wander down the streets, and if someone else asks why they are not wearing a mask, they can show the card, letter or an App.”
The connotations of such a scheme are of course, pretty grisly. Aren’t we supposed to be freeborn citizens living in a liberal democracy? Why should we have to earn our freedom every two days? It is worth remembering that Brits were carrying their wartime ID cards until 1952.
The Telegraph reports on talks between the Government and De La Rue, the passport manufacturers, to produce Covid travel certificates for those who’ve recently tested negative and who want to travel abroad:
Ministers have asked passport makers to provide Britons with secure certificates to prove they are not carrying coronavirus and help pave the way for a return to normality next year. City sources said companies including De La Rue are discussing certificates guaranteeing travellers have taken tests for the disease and are not infected. However, talks are at an early stage and could come to nothing, with uncertainty among officials about how to navigate an exit from the pandemic.
Worth reading in full.
We’re not convinced these certificates would only be necessary until a mass vaccination programme gets underway. If they’re put in place, what’s the betting that in six months time you won’t be able to go to the pub or go on holiday without a vaccination certificate?
Churches go Underground
Regular church-goers are following the example of religious people in Communist China and holding clandestine services. The Guardian has more:
Minimal information – time, directions – is quietly given with pleas for discretion. Once everyone is assembled in a barn on a remote farm – “away from prying eyes,” says the organiser – it begins.
This is no rave, but an English church service under lockdown, and the organiser is a Protestant pastor. The Christians who will gather illegally in the west of England on Sunday morning – as they have for the past two Sundays – will pray, read from the scriptures, sing hymns and listen to a sermon.
“We’ve been holding clandestine services since this lockdown began,” the pastor told the Observer, speaking on condition of anonymity. “It feels weird for us to act this way. People have said it feels more like an underground church in China.”
“I never thought I’d say this in Britain, but churches are going underground. These are not isolated cases – and the longer it goes on, more churches will join the movement,” said Andrea Williams, chief executive of Christian Concern, a conservative evangelical group, and a member of the Church of England’s ruling body, the General Synod.
Andrew, a minister at a London church, said: “We’ve carried on as normal [during the current lockdown]. We’re holding a couple of services each Sunday, with about 160 people attending in total.
“We’ve asked people to be discreet. This is not a stunt we’re pulling, we’re not seeking publicity. It was a big decision – I’ve never practised civil disobedience before.”
Worth reading in full.
The story comes hot on the heels of the closure of bookshop and tearoom – The Mustard Seed – in Gedling which cited the Magna Carta in its bid to stay open. From the BBC:
The owner of the Mustard Seed in Gedling, Nottinghamshire, had already been fined a total of £17,000 for breaching coronavirus rules, the Council said.
She had argued she had a right under the Magna Carta and “common law” to remain open.
On Friday magistrates in Mansfield granted a closure order.
This means the business has to close immediately. Failure to do so could lead to imprisonment, a fine, or both, according to Gedling Borough Council.

A Pots and Pans Protest
It’s hard to come by news of the Danish Government’s reverse ferret on its new, draconian epidemic law – there’s been nothing in the mainstream media – but Lifesite seems to think it’s definitely true.
Nine days of public protest and criticism from medical and professional sources have reportedly forced the Danish Government to back down from its plan to impose a special law regarding diseases that are considered to be “socially critical”.
The draft “epidemilov”, or “epidemic law”, had provisions allowing the use of police to force vaccinations on certain groups defined by the state. While the ruling Social Democrat coalition Government intends to come back with a new or an amended draft law, public outrage has already ensured that it will be under intense scrutiny, especially since all parties except the Social Democrats have voiced their opposition.
This important news turned out to be hard to pin down and is still being presented as fake by Danish commentators on social media, with a number of users claiming to live in Denmark saying they had heard of no demonstrations or change of mind on the part of the Government. Indeed, mainstream international media, including MSN, were silent about the event, which would have gone unnoticed if it were not for local social media users who posted videos of the “pots and pans protest” that put pressure on Danish authorities.
The story has prompted several of our readers to suggest similar action here. We got this yesterday, for instance:
Bash pans for freedom every Thursday
The Danish overturned a mandatory vaccine law by crowds standing outside their Parliament for two weeks apparently though it’s difficult to confirm.
Nevertheless, every Thursday the whole country could come out and bash saucepans for freedom from government tyranny by safety-ism. When was it? 7pm?
No consent to covid-pass. No consent to mass testing. No consent to mandatory vaccination. No consent to Big Pharma given a free pass on financial responsibility for dangerous vaccines. No consent to fascistic policing. No consent to petty fines. No consent to their divide and rule of people with woke policies. No consent to draconian regulations or Acts of Parliament. No consent to rule by dictat
And from another reader:
I read with interest the idea of a pots and pans protest action. What about a service station protest? Where people meet at their nearest service stations, stay in their individual cars and honk their horns/display messages of freedom? I do think people need to be in the same space physically for it to have any impact and I suspect any ban on protesting will remain after lockdown
Even in Japan
A reader has been in touch with more on the Japanese protest outside Shinjuku station in Tokyo that we flagged up a few days ago.
Thought you might be interested to know that resistance is building even among the super polite, face mask-fetishising Japanese. I chanced upon a protest today outside Shinjuku station in Tokyo. There are minimal restrictions here, but the participants are still angry about the pressure to wear face masks at all times, social distancing requirements, Zoom-only university classes, and the constant Corona ‘case numbers’ updates. “We know it’s all bullshit and we’ve had enough,” said one of the organisers I spoke to. There are apparently three separate sceptic groups here but they collaborate closely. There were 800 gathered outside the Japanese Diet building last week, and there was a ‘no mask excursion’ on one of the train lines recently. Interestingly, this protest was extremely good natured, jolly even, and there were zero police in attendance.
Oh, and the sign reads “Corona is a farce”.
Clarification
Yesterday’s item on asymptomatic spread suggested that the results of the Wuhan study were at variance with new guidance from the CDC. This was to misread the CDC’s guidance which was in fact talking about the risk of presymptomatic and asymptomatic spread combined, not just warning of the risk of asymptomatic transmission. Consequently, the CDC’s advice is compatible with the results from Wuhan – at a pinch.

Woke Gobbledegook
We’ve decided to create a permanent slot down here for woke gobbledegook. Today we bring you a multi-coloured mural of Winston Churchill in Cannon place in Brighton, which attracted complaints – but not for the reason you think. The Telegraph has more.
A multi-coloured mural of Winston Churchill wearing stockings and suspenders was bound to raise eyebrows when it appeared on a wall in one of Brighton’s busiest streets.
However, it is not the former Prime Minister’s suggestive lingerie which has attracted complaints from locals – but the trademark “V” sign he is making with his right hand.
The owner of the property next to where the mural is painted, in Cannon Place, was shocked when he received a call from the Council to say a passer-by had found the gesture offensive. They seemingly believed that Churchill was swearing.
Mr Phillips, who runs the Sandpiper guest house, told the Telegraph he was flabbergasted it was not Churchill’s near-naked bottom half which had prompted criticism, but perhaps the most iconic symbol of Britain’s victory in the Second World War.
“The mural was painted a month ago and a week later the Council contacted me. I thought the complaints were going to be about the stockings – and people told me politicians do a lot of strange things! But people take pictures in front of it all the time. This is Brighton after all, and it’s better than having graffiti on the wall.
“The Council said someone would come over to paint over the hands, which would look really bad. They called me half an hour later and apologised and said it was going to stay.”

“Mask Exempt” Lanyards
We’ve created a one-stop shop down here for people who want to buy (or make) a “Mask Exempt” lanyard/card. You can print out and laminate a fairly standard one for free here and it has the advantage of not explicitly claiming you have a disability. But if you have no qualms about that (or you are disabled), you can buy a lanyard from Amazon saying you do have a disability/medical exemption here (takes a while to arrive). The Government has instructions on how to download an official “Mask Exempt” notice to put on your phone here. You can get a “Hidden Disability” tag from ebay here and an “exempt” card with lanyard for just £1.99 from Etsy here. And, finally, if you feel obliged to wear a mask but want to signal your disapproval of having to do so, you can get a “sexy world” mask with the Swedish flag on it here.
Don’t forget to sign the petition on the UK Government’s petitions website calling for an end to mandatory face masks in shops here.
A reader has started a website that contains some useful guidance about how you can claim legal exemption.
If you’re a shop owner and you want to let your customers know you will not be insisting on face masks or asking them what their reasons for exemption are, you can download a friendly sign to stick in your window here.

The Great Barrington Declaration
The Great Barrington Declaration, a petition started by Professor Martin Kulldorff, Professor Sunetra Gupta and Professor Jay Bhattacharya calling for a strategy of “Focused Protection” (protect the elderly and the vulnerable and let everyone else get on with life), was launched last month and the lockdown zealots have been doing their best to discredit it ever since. If you Googled it a week after launch, the top hits were three smear pieces from the Guardian, including: “Herd immunity letter signed by fake experts including ‘Dr Johnny Bananas’.” (Freddie Sayers at UnHerd warned us about this the day before it appeared.) On the bright side, Google UK has stopped shadow banning it, so the actual Declaration now tops the search results – and Toby’s Spectator piece about the attempt to suppress it is among the top hits – although discussion of it has been censored by Reddit. The reason the zealots hate it, of course, is that it gives the lie to their claim that “the science” only supports their strategy. These three scientists are every bit as eminent – more eminent – than the pro-lockdown fanatics so expect no let up in the attacks. (Wikipedia has also done a smear job.)

Moderna is the worst of the mRNA products. Money talks. Moderna have similar deals to build production of mRNA “vaccines” in the UK and Canada. Who has any faith that our authorities will not approve them.
If I were a cynic, I’d say the bank accounts of some regulatory officers should be audited. Unfortunately, I am much more of a realist than a cynic and know that this will not happen.
“Rigorous, independent and based on evidence” – I bet whoever wrote this could not keep a straight face.
The Berenson article the author refers to is worth a read. Besides the points made re the obfuscation of AEs, he also mentions that the data indicated that a 3rd shot (the “booster”, later to become known as the “first of infinite boosters”) was already being trialled in January 2021. Not only did these scum not test the poison as to whether it stopped transmission/infection, they obviously knew from the start that a) not only would it do no such thing, b) they knew that whatever “protection” it offered waned fairly quickly and subsequent doses would be necessary. Had they said any of this from the start, no one other than the very elderly, the very vulnerable and the very gullible would have allowed this garbage anywhere near their body, regardless of the social pressure, bribes and coercion.
Rishi will be happy, Moderna stocks will be on the up.
My neighbour tested positive for the rona was a bit under the weather, took the Moderna jab was really ill and in bed for 3 days. He’ll be lining up for his spring booster, baffles me why people can’t make the link.
Quite likely that the positive test was actually for something else that he would have recovered from easily on his own. Add in the spike protein jab and he’s lucky he didn’t die. If he keeps being jabbed then he’ll die early, that’s almost certain.
That’s why I said tested positive rather than he had the rona. God knows what he had could have been Hay fever. But yes he seems to have aged rapidly over the last 12months.
I too have looked at friends and acquaintances and thought they look tired and older – could be a good comeback i.e. “don’t have that booster, makes you age faster…”
Anecdotal too, but adding up: My 59-yo husband went in for emergency abdominal surgery 2 weeks after his 4th Moderna dose 6 months ago. He took a 5th dose along with a flu shot (“That why God gave us 2 arms!”) 3 months ago. He looks frail and thin and often complains that he’s tired and doesn’t feel that great. He recovered a lot faster when he had the same surgery 3.5 years ago. Granted he’s older now, but that first hospital stay was extended because he also got pneumonia and c Diff while there. Also anecdotal: Some vaxxed people won’t mention their medical issues or side effects in front of an unvaxxed person, so the extent of injuries might not be as apparent until you hear of the injuries second or third hand.
When you are in a hole… keep digging.
It’s quite simple really. Now that I see what gets approved I just don’t trust any drug or vaccine. Why would I?
And there are many like me.
They should keep going and let’s see where it ends. Either our total enslavement to them or their self destruction.
At this point, I’m quite happy to see how this one plays out. I like our odds.
A new and utterly devastating Scamdemic, whoops, “pandemic,” must surely now be waiting in the wings given all the preparatory work that’s been completed.

”Sell the bird flu fear. Next pandemic fear. How can other animal viruses cross over and infect humans blah blah blah.
Heads on a swivel friends. The zoonotic narrative continues, they are priming the fear pump for another zoonotic jump illness. Articles such as this make zoonotic jumping appear normal when it is not. It is likely all lab manipulation of a virus much like “the illness alleged to be covid to deploy a DOD bioweapon injection”.
They will come for us again. Sooner than later. Articles like this keep the fear going and the sleepy sleepers will keep slumbering and trusting this nonsense.”

Yes, they’ve nearly got everything in place. The new WHO Regulations and Treaty are anticipated to be in place in 2024, so it’ll be announced anytime after that.
What sort of clinical trial is that? How does it compare with a control group? Whut? No control group? No proof. Maybe an FOI request can reveal their ‘working’.
We’ve seen their working, it’s utterly incorrect and miscalculated.
Since when did evidence matter? That’s so 2019 BCW ( Before Clown World ).
Does this mean Moderna lose the Emergency Use Authorisation liability shield? If so, it could be the beginning of the end for the company. Ever the optimist.
With Melbourne the lockdown capital of the world, the TGA the leading “Big Pharma funded” drug regulatory body in the world, and the Moderna mRNA factory announced almost before the jabs were released, am I the only one to see an issue here?
Fortunately, as with most of the world, people are voting with their feet.
Victoriastan is in so much debt that Chairman Dan recently had a trip to China with no journalists allowed, in order to beg (unsuccessfully) for money. He then went to the Prime Minister of Australia (also from the left faction of Labor) also to beg, and it appears that was knocked back also.
Just because the Australian authorities have approved the Moderna jab doesn’t mean the Aussies have to get jabbed. It’s approval may suggest that the Aussie health regulators are not executing due diligence of care but we know they are captured by the global bio-security industrial complex and its nefarious agenda. As the old saying goes ‘Its difficult to get someone to understand something when their careers depend on them not understanding’.
