Parents to Test England’s Three Million Secondary Schoolchildren for Covid Twice a Week
When secondary school pupils in England return to class they will be tested by their school at the start of each term and parents will be expected to test their children twice every week, the Telegraph reports.
Parents will be asked to test their children twice a week under plans for a phased return to the classroom, the Telegraph can disclose.
Families of secondary school pupils will be asked to administer lateral flow tests at home during term time under plans being drawn up by the Government.
It is understood that schools will only oversee the mass testing of secondary students once, at the start of term, after education unions struck a deal with ministers.
All schools in England are expected to open on March 8th, but secondary schools will be allowed to stagger the return of some year groups so every pupil can be tested on arrival.
Large secondary schools may take up to two weeks to get all pupils back to the classroom, education sources said.
Face masks will also be made compulsory for pupils in English secondary schools where social distancing is not possible outside classroom bubbles, it is reported.
It’s not clear what will happen if parents or children do not wish to comply with the continual testing regime, but presumably the children will not be permitted to attend school in person. Needless to say, this is an outrageous imposition on children and parents. The healthy should not have to be constantly subjected to screening for a disease for which they have no symptoms and from which they are not sick. There is scant evidence that asymptomatic individuals drive more than a tiny fraction of transmission. The risk of false positives (rarer but not unknown with lateral flow tests), and hence needless self-isolation for the whole family, class, teachers and any contacts, is hugely elevated by such a constant stream of testing. And isn’t the risk of false positives increased if the tests are being administered by people with no training or medical qualifications?
The rollout of mass testing as part of a “new normal” to try to keep infection rates low is hard to square with the vaccine exit strategy that was driving Government policy until a few weeks ago.
Dominic Raab told Sky News that rapid testing is a “key part” of the Government’s strategy to end lockdown, saying the aim is to do it “at scale and at pace so that when you do have upticks of the virus, we can come down on it like a ton of bricks”. This is not a vaccine exit strategy. This is a Zero Covid strategy. Is the Government aware that it is switching tracks to a highly contentious and extreme position here, or has it just allowed itself to be softly led into it by various advisers and interest groups? Is this just Operation Moonshine following through, not being shelved despite the vaccines arriving? How will cases ever drop below 1,000 a day with testing being ramped up on such a scale?
Meanwhile, some ministers are exerting pressure to ease restrictions more quickly, says the Telegraph.
Boris Johnson faces pressure from his own ministers to relax social distancing restrictions in shops and pubs as vaccines are rolled out. The Prime Minister will set out his roadmap to ending Covid restrictions on February 22nd.
Whitehall sources said a major study showing the impact of vaccines on transmission, due next month, will be key to decisions about how far the hospitality industry can “get back to normal” as the lockdown eases…
A rapid reopening of the economy after the return of schools is also being considered in Whitehall, internal documents seen by Sky News suggest. The plans imply that hospitality venues could reopen by late April.
But yesterday the Prime Minister said that bars and restaurants were set to be “one of the last things” to reopen, as the Government prepared to publish a roadmap out of lockdown.
Ministers have warned that many pubs will struggle to survive unless blanket rules on social distancing are eased. ...
On Monday, Mr Johnson is expected to announce that schools will start to return from March 8th in a plan setting out the order for other sectors to reopen depending on rates of infection, hospitalisation, deaths and vaccine uptake.

Somehow the Government has allowed itself to drift into de facto membership of the Zero Covid cult. It needs to snap out of it and remember the plan. The one where we discover a vaccine then go back to normal. Actual normal. Not new abnormal.

“Could Somebody in a Position of Political Power Tell Us What is an Acceptable Number of Infections?”
Professor Dame Angela McLean, the Chief Scientific Adviser at the Ministry of Defence and co-chair of the SPI-M SAGE sub-group, told MPs yesterday that SAGE scientists have been “crying out” for politicians to determine the acceptable level of Covid risk so it is clear when the crisis can be deemed over. The Telegraph has the details.
The Government must decide what is an “acceptable” number of coronavirus infections so Britain can finally move on from the pandemic, scientists have said.
Prof Dame Angela McLean, the Chief Scientific Adviser at the Ministry of Defence, said experts were “crying out” for some clarity on when the crisis would be deemed to be over. Next week, Boris Johnson will set out his vision for easing the country out of lockdown and reopening various sectors of society – but it is still unclear what measures the Government is using to determine when the country has succeeded in fighting the virus.
Speaking at the Science and Technology Select Committee, Dame Angela said: “I think it’s reasonable to say ‘let’s not have Covid winters that are any worse than bad flu winters’. But actually, bad flu winters could be quite bad.
“It’s one of the things we’ve cried out for again and again – could somebody in a position of political power tell us what is an acceptable number of infections?”
Dame Angela, a member of the Government’s scientific advisory group SAGE and also co-chairs the SPI-M Sage sub-group, added: “We do need to decide what level is acceptable, and then we can manage our lives with that in mind.”Mark Woolhouse, Professor of Infectious Disease Epidemiology at the University of Edinburgh, said it would be wrong to attempt to get Covid cases to zero.
“If you take the view that no Covid death is acceptable or something of that order, you are writing a blank cheque to do any amount of harm by the measures you have implemented to try and control it,” he said, but added that the current data was pointing to “earlier unlocking”.
“I completely agree that we don’t want to be overly focused on dates – not at all,” he said. “We want to be focused on data. But the point I’d make about that is the data is going really well.
“The vaccination rollout is, I think, exceeding most people’s expectations. The transmission blocking potential is key. But so, of course, is its actual ability to protect against death and disease, and to keep people out of hospital, and those numbers are looking really good.
“My conclusion from that is if you’re driven by the data and not by dates, right now you should be looking at earlier unlocking.”
It comes as latest data shows that current death rates and hospitalisations are far lower than was projected by the Government’s scientific advisers.
Papers released by the Scientific Advisory Group on Medical Emergencies, dated last month, project around 800 deaths a day in England by mid-February, with 2,200 hospital admissions daily. In fact, hospital admissions for the country have now reached a seven-day average of 1,497 – around one-third lower.
Deaths are around 40% lower than the modelling by Sage’s Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Modelling (SPI-M), with a seven-day average of 482.
On Wednesday, scientists suggested that the progress against the measures – previously seen as key to getting Britain out of lockdown – might explain a shift towards a focus on case numbers. It came after Whitehall sources said any significant easing of restrictions, such as the reopening of pubs, is unlikely until case numbers reduce to less than 1,000 a day.
Prof Carl Heneghan, the director of the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine at the University of Oxford, said: “We need the Government to be much more explicit about the criteria they are using, and upfront about the decisions being made.
“It’s right that decisions about easing lockdown should be data driven, but this modelling is so far out that it is worrying, and it makes you wonder if they have shifted to focusing on case numbers because the data on other areas is showing such improvements.”

Stop Press: Even lockdowner David Aaronovitch is calling for the date to be set when all restrictions will end, worrying that “Ministers won’t give up Covid powers easily”. He writes in the Times:
Right now we are talking about (but not debating) what discriminatory restrictions we can impose so that we can lift lockdown. Might nightclubs, theatres, cinemas and bars be allowed to reopen later in the year on the production of evidence (presumably app-based) of each guest’s negative PCR test? At the moment most of us would happily go along with that, whether we should or not.
Should employers be able to demand proof of vaccination as a condition of employment? Think about it. In the context of health employment this makes immediate sense. But what about the non-healthcare company that simply wants to boast to the public “We don’t employ Covid-vulnerable staff”?
A pre-entry PCR test is one thing, a demand that you are immunised for your job is another. I don’t believe the Government can say that it is up to individual companies to decide. It must tell them not to do it.
The time has come to start discussing in earnest where we want to go with all this in the event of another emergency once this pandemic war is over.
We should set out one overriding principle: that some time this year we agree a date for Victory over Virus Day, when excess deaths have fallen or infection rates reach a pre-pandemic level, after which we expect all emergency measures, restrictions, mandatory tracking apps and special discretionary powers to end.

Stop Press 2: SPI-M member Dr Michael Tildesley, an epidemiologist from the University of Warwick, has told Freddie Sayers on UnHerd that we “want the old normal back”.
We should really want the old normal back so that we can see our loved ones and have that level of social interaction because we’re a social species. A lot of the dystopian discussion of a new normal actually really scares me, because I think we lose that level of social interaction that actually keeps us going. We don’t talk enough about mental health. And actually, one of the big challenges in the last 12 months has been people who have suffered more from mental health challenges before the pandemic, but also an awful lot of people who have suffered as a result of the pandemic.

What are We to Make of the 40.5% Hospital Acquired Covid Infection?
We’re publishing an original piece today by Dr Ann Bradshaw, a Lockdown Sceptics contributor and retired senior lecturer in adult nursing at Oxford Brookes. Dr Bradshaw wonders whether lessons on how to minimise infection in hospital will ever be learned.
Hospital spread infection is not a new problem. In 2008 the King’s Fund published a Briefing Paper on Health Care Associated Infections in hospitals, subtitled, “Stemming the Rise of the Superbug”. MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) had increased dramatically: from fewer than 100 in 1990, to more than 5,000 in 2001. Although part of the increase was probably the result of better identification and reporting, there were nearly 50,000 cases of clostridium difficile in 2007 reported in acute trusts in patients aged 65 years and over. Between 2004 and 2006, the number of cases of C difficile rose steadily from 44,563 to 55,634.
The King’s Fund recommendations were for hand hygiene, a ‘clean your hands’ campaign and a ‘bare-below-the-elbows’ dress code for health care staff aimed at facilitating effective hand decontamination. Both these were implemented in 2004 and 2007 by Government. Isolation of infected patients was also recommended. Although the King’s Fund recognised that a hospital’s capacity to isolate patients depends on the design of the building, particularly the number of single rooms, as well as an ability to move patients around, which could be affected by levels of bed occupancy.
These two issues of isolation and hospital hygiene are extremely relevant to the Covid situation today. The importance of isolating contagious patients was suggested by Jefferson and Heneghan but apparently this suggestion has been ignored by Government planners. And it is hard to see why Nightingale hospitals and some imagination with staffing were not used for this purpose (as I have written previously).
The second issue is that of hospital hygiene. When I trained as a nurse from 1968-1971, hospital hygiene was drilled into us student nurses. Doing a dressing for a patient, for example, meant washing down a dressing trolley in the clinical room twice, first with a soap and water substance then with an antiseptic – Hibitane – and laying out the trolley. Dressings were only carried out in the afternoon when any dust created by the ward work in the morning had settled. Dressing a patient followed a procedure. It started by explaining to the patient and making him or her comfortable. Where the dressing pack was placed on the trolley, how the pack was opened, were prescribed. So too were the steps needed to perform the dressing and to dispose of contaminated material. Before each step hand washing was required.
However, this was abandoned in the 1980s as too “routinised, task orientated, ritualised and unnecessary” – with predictable and tragic results.

The Coddling of the Political Mind
We’re publishing another original piece today, this one by James Moreton Wakeley, a former parliamentary researcher who has a PhD in History from Oxford. He recalls the three ‘Great Untruths’ from Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt’s 2018 book The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting up a Generation for Failure. They are the “Untruth of Fragility” (‘what doesn’t kill you makes you weaker’), the “Untruth of Emotional Reasoning” (‘always trust your feelings’), and the “Untruth of Us vs Them” (‘life is a battle between good people and evil people’). He sees these “cognitive distortions” working overdrive during the pandemic, pumping up the over-reaction.
Worryingly, governmental adherence to the Untruth of Fragility appears only to be growing. Hopes that vaccinating those most at risk from critical symptoms would lead to a loosening of lockdown look to be disappointed as the Government and its advisers find ever more excuses for caution. The goalposts have moved: the Prime Minister now seems more concerned about case numbers than alleged pressure on the NHS or fatalities. Virus variants risk becoming a gift that keeps on giving to the lockdown lobby. The seeming desire of ministers to destroy risk entirely is not only unbalanced and delusional, but it also fails to recognise the clear medical fact that younger demographics can deal with Covid, and that the NHS should be expected to cope with the tiny fraction of those demographics who unfortunately suffer serious symptoms.
Reaching such a conclusion, however, risks violating the second Great Untruth: the “Untruth of Emotional Reasoning”. How can I talk about Covid so academically, a critic may say, when we are shown heart-rending footage of hospitals almost every night on television, and hear stories of death every day? And surely, they may continue, does not lockdown, by keeping people apart to stop the spread of the disease, not simply feel like a good idea?
We are certainly emotionally-induced by what we see to panic about Covid, to catastrophise, to focus on the negatives, to assume that lack of capacity at some NHS hospitals speaks to a more general crisis. The sheer repetition of death statistics and warnings makes it worse: the more often something is said, the truer it becomes. Yet around 1,700 people die in the UK every day, every year. Death is always ugly, and winter always brings respiratory-disease pressures to the NHS. Just because you never used to see it on your telescreen does not mean that it was not real. The fact that modern society now habitually segregates its elderly in care homes has probably contributed to the power of obsessively-morbid media coverage as death is now something that happens beyond the home, not a process that families grow-up observing around them.
It is all too easy for politicians to play to this Covid gallery of doom, but they are elected in part to look beyond the drowning man in front of them to the sinking ship on the horizon. Emotionally, we respond to the Covid patient on the six o’clock news, but rationally we are led to consider the huge costs we cannot yet see so easily: the costs of lockdown. As to lockdown feeling like the right thing to do, standing back and looking at the evidence reveals that panic-induced feeling is no substitute for empirical observation. Covid is overwhelmingly transmitted to vulnerable demographics in places that simply cannot be locked-down – hospitals, sustained contact in households, and care homes – and viruses do not respond to pettifogging Government guidance on exercise regimes, distances driven to parks, substantial meals, or group sizes.

Legal Challenge to Hotel Quarantine
Law firm PGMBM are seeking to bring a legal challenge against the mandatory hotel quarantine measures imposed by the Government on UK and Irish citizens and residents returning home to England. They explain:
We believe that the Government, by forcing UK and Irish citizens and residents returning home to quarantine in a hotel at their own cost, regardless of whether they are showing any symptoms of COVID-19, or whether they have tested positive for COVID-19, has unlawfully and disproportionately violated their fundamental right to liberty and right to respect for private and family life.
Whilst we acknowledge the importance of safeguarding public health in these unprecedented times, and understand that any public policy decision aiming to prevent the spread of the virus is by its nature difficult, the Government should in no way use this as an excuse to disproportionately deprive its citizens and residents of their fundamental human rights. Under Article 5 of the European Convention on Human Rights, no one shall be unduly deprived of their liberty. Article 8 further protects everyone’s right to respect for private and family life, home and correspondence from any undue interference by public authorities. …
Citizens and residents paying for the privilege of staying in their own country
We believe that it is utterly disproportionate for the Government to require its citizens and residents to pay at their own expense – an astonishing total of £1,750 – for the privilege of staying in their own country where they already have a place of residence. It is unreasonable for the Government to assume the ineffectiveness of home quarantine without first considering viable, but more human rights friendly, alternatives which have been successfully implemented in many other countries across the world.
Disregarding international obligations
The United Kingdom, as a Member State of the World Health Organization which has committed itself to abiding by the International Health Regulations, has disregarded its international obligations under Article 40 of the Regulations, which expressly prohibits Member States from imposing a charge to travellers who are subject to quarantine requirements.

Farewell to the Lamb & Flag
Responding to our request yesterday for laments for lost high street favourites, Lockdown Sceptics reader Sebastian Lees has sent us this tribute to the Lamb & Flag in Oxford.
The historic Oxford pub, operating continuously for over 450 years has ceased trading, the latest casualty of lockdown.
Established in 1566, and moved to its current site in 1613, the Lamb & Flag was an institution for generations of Oxford residents and students, including myself. It’s panelled walls, wonky layout, and stone floors offered a soothing antidote to the modern, sometimes soulless gastropub chains. To quote Evelyn Waugh, the pub “exhaled the soft airs of centuries of youth”.
It was home to The Inklings (although the pub across the road gets all the credit), a writing group consisting of Tolkein and C.S. Lewis amongst others, who would meet regularly to read and discuss chapters from their latest books. More recently it saw Tony Blair pulling pints behind the bar in his student days.
It was a pub you could feel good drinking in for reasons beyond historical aesthetic – profits were used to fund scholarships at a nearby Oxford college.
My favourite memory of the place was slipping away at midday, to partake in the now lost ritual of the lunchtime pint. What I loved about the place was how egalitarian it was. A brotherhood of lunchtime drinkers would convene at the bar to discuss the day’s events. Members included Oxford dons, security guards, students, lawyers, and of course the barman. It was Moe’s Tavern – Oxford Style.
I will miss the Lamb & Flag terribly. Its future now looks uncertain, but with such an historical pedigree and central location, I hope it will live on through new owners.
CORRECTION: Yesterday’s lament for Barnsbury Stores appears to have been somewhat belated. Two readers wrote to tell us it was already closed by July 2019. One explained:
The closure of Barnsbury Stores, the shop you showed in today’s edition, had nothing to do with lockdown. It closed well before Covid was even a twinkle in anyone’s eye. It was a rather expensive local off-licence, and it closed when the much more competitive corner shop fifty yards away started selling alcohol much more cheaply.

Woke Gobbledegook
We’ve decided to create a permanent slot down here for woke gobbledegook. Today, Nigel Farage is feeling vindicated in the Telegraph as the tide begins to turn against the highly political, far Left BLM movement.
The blinkered excitement that surrounded last year’s Black Lives Matter marches at last appears to be fading. At the recent England versus Scotland rugby international many players, including Billy Vunipola, refused to ‘take the knee’. The Crystal Palace striker Wilfried Zaha has also dismissed this gesture as “degrading”. And now, at last, the Home Secretary Priti Patel has said she would never take the knee either. It has taken much longer than it should have done, but the truth is beginning to circulate widely: BLM isn’t just a loose group of well meaning social activists who enjoy a protest – it’s a political organisation which would like to see Western capitalism brought down.
Those of us who have tried to explain this since last summer can begin to breathe a sigh of relief. But there is one man who should now be worried: the Labour Party leader, Sir Keir Starmer.
Last June, Sir Keir ‘took the knee’ in his parliamentary office and then posted a picture of himself in the pose on his Twitter account. Jumping on this bandwagon was a huge error. Internal Labour Party research, backed up by Lord Ashcroft, shows that voters in so-called ‘Red Wall’ seats believe that the London-led Labour Party is completely out of touch with them. It doesn’t take a genius to work out why. Most people’s priorities relate to a good education for their children plus home and job security for themselves, so they don’t take particularly well to an MP genuflecting in support of a hardline left-wing group.
The Labour Party will only regain many of these Red Wall seats – and will only have a chance of winning the next general election – if it dumps the metropolitan woke act and reconnects with the vast majority of voters in this country. I think Sir Keir understands this, which is why, after years of deriding national flags (who can forget Emily Thornberry’s 2014 tweet from Rochester of a white van driver’s house draped in the cross of St George) Labour has suddenly decided that the flag is acceptable. All Islingtonians have been put on notice: patriotism is the name of the game from now on. This approach may work for Starmer, but it is clear that he still has a major battle to fight with one man in his party, Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London.
The BLM protests were chaotic, to put it mildly. The Cenotaph was desecrated and Churchill’s statue in Parliament Square was daubed with graffiti, among other outrageous acts. In the confusion, the law-abiding majority was silenced, while those who peddled lies shouted loudest, informing us that our past was to be cleansed.
Into this nightmarish scene stepped Khan to announce he was setting up a Commission for Diversity in the Public Realm. This month, he unveiled the members of this sinister-sounding enterprise. Its aim is clear: to remove statues, change street names and alter the imagery of London so that it can reflect the ‘diverse’ city as it is now. Khan believes that it is for him, as a here-today-gone-tomorrow local politician, to eradicate London’s Victorian history if it comes to it.
Farage goes on to list some of the extreme views and behaviours of those Khan has appointed for his Year Zero commission.

“Mask Exempt” Lanyards
We’ve created a one-stop shop down here for people who want to obtain a “Mask Exempt” lanyard/card – because wearing a mask causes them “severe distress”, for instance. You can print out and laminate a fairly standard one for free here and the Government has instructions on how to download an official “Mask Exempt” notice to put on your phone here. And 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.
A reader has started a website that contains some useful guidance about how you can claim legal exemption. Another reader has created an Android app which displays “I am exempt from wearing a face mask” on your phone. Only 99p.
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.
And here’s an excellent piece about the ineffectiveness of masks by a Roger W. Koops, who has a doctorate in organic chemistry. See also the Swiss Doctor’s thorough review of the scientific evidence here and Prof Carl Heneghan and Dr Tom Jefferson’s Spectator article about the Danish mask study 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 in October 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. In February, Facebook deleted the GBD’s page because it “goes against our community standards”. 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.)
You can find it here. Please sign it. Now over three quarters of a million signatures.
Update: The authors of the GBD have expanded the FAQs to deal with some of the arguments and smears that have been made against their proposal. Worth reading in full.

Judicial Reviews Against the Government
There are now so many legal cases being brought against the Government and its ministers we thought we’d include them all in one place down here.
The Simon Dolan case has now reached the end of the road. The current lead case is the Robin Tilbrook case which challenges whether the Lockdown Regulations are constitutional, although that case, too, has been refused permission to proceed. There’s still one more thing that can be tried. You can read about that and contribute here.
Then there’s John’s Campaign which is focused specifically on care homes. Find out more about that here.
There’s the GoodLawProject and Runnymede Trust’s Judicial Review of the Government’s award of lucrative PPE contracts to various private companies. You can find out more about that here and contribute to the crowdfunder here.
Scottish Church leaders from a range of Christian denominations have launched legal action, supported by the Christian Legal Centre against the Scottish Government’s attempt to close churches in Scotland for the first time since the the Stuart kings in the 17th century. The church leaders emphasised it is a disproportionate step, and one which has serious implications for freedom of religion.” Further information available here.
There’s the class action lawsuit being brought by Dr Reiner Fuellmich and his team in various countries against “the manufacturers and sellers of the defective product, PCR tests”. Dr Fuellmich explains the lawsuit in this video. Dr Fuellmich has also served cease and desist papers on Professor Christian Drosten, co-author of the Corman-Drosten paper which was the first and WHO-recommended PCR protocol for detection of SARS-CoV-2. That paper, which was pivotal to the roll out of mass PCR testing, was submitted to the journal Eurosurveillance on January 21st and accepted following peer review on January 22nd. The paper has been critically reviewed here by Pieter Borger and colleagues, who also submitted a retraction request, which was rejected in February.
And last but not least there was the Free Speech Union‘s challenge to Ofcom over its ‘coronavirus guidance’. A High Court judge refused permission for the FSU’s judicial review on December 9th and the FSU has decided not to appeal the decision because Ofcom has conceded most of the points it was making.

Morning everyone – back on the podium at last.
Now to read the REAL news
The true death numbers from Covid over the last year, just over 3,000, from official NHS statistics, people with no underlying health conditions. https://dailyexpose.co.uk/2021/02/17/investigation-nh
First question would be, are there comparable figures for ALL deaths including those at home (their figures only refer to hospitals). We know that at least 25,000 died at home last year, which is probably where the total ramps up to 100,000 who allegedly died with C-19.
Are there also comparable stats from 2019 of those who died from all causes who did not have pre existing conditions to be able to compare.
What new hell can our satanic child abusers in Government and its “saged” devils come up with today ? oh yes ! lets test children twice a week . that`s the idea johnson you useless potato in a wig !
Please don’t i sult the potato, that decent, honourable, nourishing vegetable, by mentioning it in the same sentence as Bozo.
A good roasting is needed for this potato.
A good dose of blight is what he needs.
Mashing better…
This is what Katie Hopkins has been calling the fat pig dictator on YouTube videos every day. Funny how people who were not really my cup of tea become fellow bedfellows.
Oh, it’s insane. Plus masks for anywhere secondary school pupils can’t socially distance – did you spot that gem? No end date given.
At least tests are ministered at home, so hopefully ignored by most, and LFT.
Of course this will only be the first step. Once we get used to testing for covid, flu (so much for “dangerous” for kids!) can’t be far behind. Sherelle Jacobs has an article on this in the telegraph today which I’m afraid is probably correct, much though I hate it.
tests for flu isn’t far behind according to Matt Hancock argued on the lines of people who are sick shouldn’t go to work. Fair point, but I started work in an era that a heavy cold was not a valid reason for sick leave. Which is why most people say flu instead.
Exactly, everyone where I am was in work with a heavy cold last Feb 2020 which spread like wildfire ( the last time I was sick myself)
Noone took a day off
Would be interesting to see if it was the bat cold or not but I ain’t getting tested
Is it not notable to see the power given to the external diagnosis of your own lived experience?
I was in some bonfire smoke once and the stinging and watering eye sickness spread almost instantly.
I exaggerate to make a point.
But in any case the tests do not mean anything – and therefore can mean whatever the test designer and the parameters used by the test, determine to be the result desired.
Yes thanks for this handjob, one small thing if I take time off work I am called into the office and given a verbal warning about my attendance. Will you write to my boss and tell him he can’t do that? Oh you are busy……
People who are ill shouldn’t have to cover their first, most infectious sickdays, out of their own pockets. Wankock can’t have it both ways.
test dog shit and send it in
Its sick what they are doing to children. They are blameless, they are not disease vectors just let them get on with their lives poor sods.
In America, it is everywhere. Even the playground.
And we continue to ignore the mask mandates and the arrows and the distancing x on the floor
If I may ….. I usually post on TCW. I do not come here but the link was set there.
I work in a school. I keep readig about the testing this morning ( and it is not new its been in place since January – except the Fat controller closed the schools which meant it was not rolled out.
I have been told that SCHOOLS will test the children. Testing centres have been set up for this and volunteer teachers ( in my school mainly PE staff and some SLT , who have light timetables)have done their days training in suiting up in a hazmat suit to do the testing. The tests have been delivered to the schools ( not to parents).
Parents were asked for consent for testing, not asked to do the tests.
Teachers have also been told to consent for testing. Again they are to appear in the test centre for this twice weekly.
This is so that parents cannot take the piste out of the test by giving it to the dog, cat or bearded dragon and send it in to school – or that is how I understood it. So children will be subjected to a rather nasty little test at the top of the nasel passage where the tissue is sensitive and painful ( and hope you dont go through the top and cause damage) and down the throat until they gag! Lets be blunt and say what it really is.
As it hat happens if a parent refuses – well no one has actually said but I did ask both the union and my Head about this. I was told children were to come into school anyway. testing was voluntary, not compulsory and they could not be made to take it and parents could not be coerced to sign. I was also told (and had it in writing) that teaching staff could refuse and they too were to report for work in the usual way and to complete their work normally.
Now things may be changing. If they let home tests for parents maybe they will do the same for staff. I certainly hope so . I hope what was put in place in January has been changed but I not heard such. Only a load of MSM articles about children being tested at home. But maybe you should just check out somewhere what the government actually do intend before thinking you can send in a dog sample.
Midwife friend does LFT tests at home twice weekly already. It’s becoming the “norm” (shudder)…though preferable to in-school testing & my littlies being treated like pariahs because their mad maskless mum refuses to let them have sticks stuck up their nose.
Hello, Abbie. Thanks for that.
This is nothing but a systematic abuse of our children and young people. And mark my words they will be living with this for the rest of their lives, resilient or not.
PS. Anyone who still trots that out should be shot.
if all goes according to plan, the rest of their lives won’t be that long
this is my biggest fear.
That’s what we should be worried about.
Yes indeed, absolutely none of this is about a virus. We are entering the very darkest of times.
Or better still get the flame throwers out.
I think a lot of parents will be testing a lot of papayas. Or equivalent.
I’m a gardener. I’ll be testing compost.
Unfortunately I think even tap water has tested “positive”.
They can use it on their kid’s things – bags, shoes, notebooks, pencils and it will have the same result as Tanzania’s papaya and goat.
It’s going to make teaching the concept of consent quite difficult.
‘Yes Paula, you’ve got this thing called bodily autonomy – erm, except when there’s anything to do with Covid.’
‘Okay sir. So if a man accosts me in the park, drops his trousers and tells me he’s going to penetrate me with his Covid probe, and I don’t want him to, what then?’
‘Well Paula, if he’s wearing a latex Johnson or Starmer mask, he can do whatever he wants to you.’
‘Isn’t that a bit rapey, sir?’
‘No, Paula. And if you resist you’re a granny killer.’
Absolutely, I have been telling my family for weeks “if someone stops me in the street and says he will stick something in my bum for 20 quid and I’ll live 10 more years, I would either punch him or move away hastily. Why would you believe big pharma government any more than this man in the street?”
A nice bottle of mineral water sat in the fridge will be tested every day without fail and the swab dutifully posted back to the Gestapo!
If you’re posting the swab back, you’d be better off gobbing on it. At least the swab will be positive for saliva proteins and the gestapo may catch something!
The bottle of mineral water will be flogged until morale improves.
will you be quarantining the bottle of mineral water until you get a negative test result back? not allowing it to hug its granny or go to the cinema etc???
So I just watched a how to video for the Lateral flow test. Its not sent away its like a pregnancy test, except you don’t pee on it. You use a long q-tip stick it in your gob and wriggle it about 4 times. Then with the same end you do both left and right sides of your hooter. Four twists each side. You then stick this in a thin plastic bottle, five twists. Then you squeeze the side of the bottle and get the liquid out. Take out the q-tip and put a lid on the bottle which has a small hole in the lid. Now you get your tester unit which really looks like a pregnancy tester and squeeze three drops of liquid onto the tester. Wait 25 minutes and see the results.
Or you say to your child, how do you feel? Okay? Great off to school. What a complete and utter waste of time and money. No symptoms no disease.
Surely no one will do it. Just pretend. I wouldn t risk damaging sensitive areas of my child’s nose
Those with common sense won’t but there’s plenty out there of the joyfully awaiting their jab as it’s ‘the path to freedom’ variety that will. Little do they know.
Don’t forget that Wanckok will guarantee you 10 years behind bars for telling porkies (almost certainly without trial).
It’s now reached a point where it is obvious that whatever the agenda is, it’s been carried out by a deranged government. There is no sense to the latest proposals at any level.
And the idea is to keep that ‘cases’ rate above 1000 just to make sure we never leave lockdown
Well, as I have noted the Greeks are having trouble doing it and they have a much smaller population, and their lockdown is more stringent (masks mandated outdoors, having to tell the police when you go outdoors etc.)
Are there any psychologists in the house?
What’s the current thinking on people suffering from paranoid delusion?
Do you humour them in their delusion or do you confront them with it and not pander to it?
People are suffering from paranoid delusion in our society. There are some who truly believe that there is an unusually dangerous disease out there. They really believe that human beings breathing is a mortal threat.
But even those people who may realise that this is only a delusion have to play along. The game now is that we have to carefully ease restrictions.
No we don’t. The government just has to say: Everything is now open. The Coronavirus Act and all SIs are now void.
The fact that they haven’t shows that they don’t want to reopen and that, perhaps, just perhaps, this isn’t about a virus.
And as for us. Don’t pander to the paranoid delusional among us.
Wow – very well said.
I don’t live in the UK, but I am horrified by what is going on there. Although you’re under one of the worst covid regimes in the world, take heart in the thought that the many other freer places will be a contagious example of better governance that will inevitably spread your way.
Where are you, Rich?
You’re right. Before long the UK totslitarians will be clearly shown up as
the worst of a bad, evil bunch.
I am in North Carolina. Restaurants are open with a 50% capacity limit, but some are ignoring that. My local sheriff has said he will not enforce covid restrictions.
There’s a lot of mask wearing, but a significant minority do not wear them in my area. When I go to the local supermarket nobody tells me to wear one.
My kids are in school 2 days a week, unfortunately with masks. One of the teachers allows them to take them off though, bless him.
You’re a lucky man in some ways … but the poor kids.
Our local school board has many voices of sanity, so there are signs of progress. The school gives regular mask breaks, and I got ones that are very breathable for my kids. As much as I hate the masks, I just have to be patient and make the best of it till the hysteria dies down.
“Mask breaks” – so they accept that masks are uncomfortable? That being accepted, and evidence of their benefits being weak, surely the masks should be un-mandated.
They absolutely should! If the masks continue beyond this school year we will most likely move to home schooling.
Why not cut out little holes all the way across them? (The muzzles, that is, not the children!!)
I do hope so, but dumbing down seems as frequent as locking down!
I’ve been under the impression that the UK had been singled out for the absolute worst of this bollocks by taking some sort of leadership role, to show the rest of the world how to do it. Obviously that’s backfiring as the rest of the world looks on and says ”What the actual f@#k!”
I think as soon as Covid became a thing, the gov’t tried to take a leading role in it. It’s what British gov’ts do with their ‘world-beating’ programmes. It helps them to ‘stand tall in the world’ and ‘punch above their weight’.
When they punch children, they’re certainly above the children’s weight.
It has been apparent from day one of the corona scam that Johnson and the other psychopaths in his government take their orders from the self appointed global vaccine tsar, the eugenicist and depopulator in chief Bill Gates.
So Sad – classic case of small man syndrome
I’m paranoid, but not deluded. You know the old saying: Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean someone isn’t out to get you. Our governments really are out to get us; unfortunately, it’s no delusion.
Absolutely right.
‘Conspiracy’ Mel Gibson.
as our ex PM Harold Wilson found out
And so did JLK, RFK and MLK.
I know of people who are hypochondriacs and possibly even suffering from paranoid delusion before this shit show and this crisis has exacerbated it. I simply ignore them and when this is over and they want to go “let bygones be bygones” I will simply tell them to take a hike.
Yes you’ve had your chips I will be saying. Society needed you and you were found wanting so do one.
Yep. I was glad when one of the hypochondriacs took voluntary redundancy because it means I will never see her again.
And it is so widespread. Many more people than not (of all ages) go through a ridiculous pantomime of swerving, pulling up masks in addition to putting thier hands over their faces in sheer horror when I pass them in the tsreet or even in the countryside. Where on earth do they get their information and how do they process it to believe a virus (in the unlikely case that I do have ‘it’) can leap several feet through the open air and kill them? I have tried to ask a few of those who do this but they don’t answer and just scuttle off in terror.
I went shopping in the Range yesterday. Two brothers, one was about 7and the other 10, wanted to look at stuff in the toy aisle I was in. When they saw me without a mask the small boy looked at me wide eyed and they scuttled off. A few minutes later they poked their heads round the end of the aisle again but I was still hovering over the toys they wanted to get near. The third time the younger could wait no longer and approached but his brother yanked him away.
I hate to think what paranoid behaviour they will develop when tested x2 weekly?
The sooner Johnson and his bunch of crooks are locked away in jail, the sooner poor kids like these, will have a chance of getting back to somewhere near normal. For some though, it is already too late.
It might also be a bit of Napoleon syndrome. Small people suddenly given unlimited power. So not just politicians, all the curtain twitching people are now empowered to shop their neighbours who have some friends round. Or shout at you for not wearing a mask. This has also bought the very worse out of the police.
Totalitarianism invariably brings out the very worst in the very worst people.
Just got out my verbal Kalashnikov to deal with the Scottish government’s consultation, linked ATL. Almost no tick boxes, and obvious bias easy to recognise and denounce. Doesn’t insist you are resident in Scotland. You don’t even have to give an assurance that you are a mindless MacZombie. Go there and get ’em, mates!

I was horrified when I read about testing kids twice a week for C-19.
What was the minister or whoever dreamt up this idea thinking? Or perhaps not thinking at all.
I have tried to find out the cost of the test and all associated costs but cannot find this. Anyone on here know?
I am looking to return to the UK later this year and find that I will have to pre-book and pay for two Covid 19 tests at a cost of 210 pounds. One test is 150 quid over here.
Also the quarantine hotels in the UK are expensive and sound terrible. Here a good hotel with balcony is 750 for 14 nights and includes the cost of tests.
A married couple I know came here(THailand) and got an apartment for two weeks at a cost of 2000 pounds – their only complaint was that there wasn’t any metal cutlery.
for god’s sake, don’t come back here. you are OUT, it means you have a chance of survival. but I understand if you have loved ones here, that is what keeps me trapped here
Yes the only reason I am coming back is to see my friends and family – should have happened last year but c-19 put the kibosh on that.
The lateral flow tests are in the region of £10, whilst the PCR test is in the region of £120.
With 8.82 million children equates to a cost of £176million per week, if using the LFT. If using PCR, the cost would be £2,116million per week.
Kerching. Covid is now big business.
Thanks for that – the term ‘a waste of money’ springs to mind
According to a piece in the BMJ, the government has spent £1.3bn on 384 million testing kits. That’s enough for 3 weeks of testing. So, that’s almost £22bn per year.
That’s for a test that, in the hands of the general public, only picks up around 50% of cases and has a specificity of 99.64%. And that’s what worries me. 16 million tests per week will yield over 60,000 false positives each week, which in turn will result in permanent lockdown.
so all that money to be spent on testing and today they announce they are spending 18m on research into effects of long covid – would the testing money not be better spent on treating the poor people with the long covid?
Sorry, forgive my earlier maths. The supply will last 21 weeks, not 21 days, so a cost of around £5 billion per year.
The harms of lockdown measures are substantial and serious. They have been covered repeatedly and in detail both here and elsewhere. The most serious of these is that the government has deprived us of our liberties. This is fundamental because this fact means we cannot look to the government to solve the problem. Even if the government today announced the end to all the coronavirus restrictions and repealed all the legislation and related guidance, the fundamental problem would still exist, for in the minds of policy makers depriving us of our liberties would still be a possible policy. The only viable solution is for us to reassert our liberty. We can do this by non-compliance. Ignore the rules.
I know what you mean but the effect of the lock-down measures are that there is limited opportunity to do as I wish. The village pub, the village hall and the local swimming pool are shut, my family are spread out, Cardiff, London, Kampala and Calgary, I cannot travel to those places from N Devon nor could I stay if I got there. Devon Wildlife trust have suspended the group work parties that I used to organise in this area.
Government has forced organisations and businesses to shut down and limit our ability to exist as free people. Much to my surprise, yesterday I had a reply from my M.P. Geoffrey Cox, it was a surprisingly positive letter, no he has not turned into a sceptic! but he did express considerable and apparently genuine concern for the effects of lockdown on children, rural community life and rural small businesses and assured me that each week all of Devon’s MPs were now meeting to consider the way forward. So no, the door has not been flung open but a chink of light is showing and we need to push hard on that door.
That’s good to hear
I’m glad that you at least received an intelligent response. My MP responded to the campaign to reopen the licensed trade by going into great detail about how much money this government is spending on various schemes. Initially, I wasn’t going to dignify this nonsense with a response, but I decided to remind her that
I’m increasingly convinced that this is the true reason for BJ’s glacial schedule for a return to normality.
It might also be worth pointing out to her that the government may be the body that authorizes the payment but it is the taxpayer that actually puts its hand in its pocket.
Duly remind her we look forward to reviewing the authorization body at either the next election or lynching, whichever comes first, and that our patience and mental health probably won’t stretch another 3 years.
The bare faced cheek of these cunts.
They don’t want to return to normality. The glacial progression is towards totalitarianism.
Not all that glacial.
Maybe I’ll drop Cox another line. My last email was inviting him to help crowd fund the Manchester cafe owners, Luc and Kate. Oddly enough, I haven’t had a reply yet.
Sorry Steve but that is pathetic. You can travel wherever you like if you have a valid reason.That reason is up to you. I’ve said it many times but, once more, have a piece of paper ready “Sorry officer I have lost my voice. I have a reason to travel to do with mental health. I cannot say any more.”
No, Bungle, no offense, but it is you, not Steve, who is naive. International travel will simply not be that easy. Unless, of course, enough of us resist the new normal before it is too late
I use to post a lot on site at the start
I am just fed up with it all now
They keep changing the lockdown exit route
I had not noticed that they ever had one to change.
Indeed!
the government discussing their lockdown route
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRJby3PCfbo
I don’t understand why we even need to buy into the route/roadmap at all? Any mention of these terms makes me so angry. Just end it. Simple as that.
Hear hear!! And why do we always have to wait two weeks for this crap. Tell me now, if you don’t trust your bullshit figures then what’s the point. If you can’t predict an outcome then all your measurements are bullshit and you have zero control so let’s just “let it rip”
The route out of lockdown should be this.
The government has to try and maximise (length of life * quality of life) aggregated across all of its citizens. If lockdown reduces that amount, then lockdown should end.
Well we know lockdown reduces quality of life. Now according to the governments own figures, because the vulnerable have been vaccinated mostly, that length of life is being reduced due to lockdown deaths which now exceed covid deaths.
But in truth, there are more covid deaths caused by lockdown, see the US where states not locked down have a lower rate of death on average.
So lockdown should never have happened in the first place. Ironically that makes getting out of it a bit difficult because it will reveal the fraud behind it in the first place.
precisely – one doesn’t want to end up with egg all over one’s face does one?
The Gibraltar government has clearly stated that the spate of deaths in January has nothing to do with the vaccine and is purely the chance timing coincidence between the vaccine being rolled out and COVID taking hold there. This has been eagerly lapped up by Reuters and Full Fact, amongst others.
How credible are these claims ? Well, if you look at the graph below comparing headline COVID deaths in Gibraltar in January 2021 to San Marino, a small country in Northern Italy with almost exactly the same population, at the time of the outbreak of COVID in Italy (March 2020) and previously the fastest increasing death rate per million, you have 70 deaths in Gibraltar over a 29 day period compared to 32 in San Marino. Gibraltar’s rate was 218% that of San Marino. What is particularly interesting is that the lines part a few days after the vaccination programme started in Gibraltar.
Now, clearly they haven’t sense-checked their figures, but if you assume that Gibraltar was ‘only’ affected as badly as San Marino in March, the chance of the death numbers being as high as they are is 1 in 229 million (easily calculated by a Poisson distribution with mean of 32).
The government claims only 6 deaths were of people who had had a vaccination. Since the vast majority of the vaccinated were the old and vulnerable, and the overwhelming majority of the deaths were in this demographic group, I think Gibraltar really needs to check this figure – after all the chance of 53 unvaccinated people dying in the period from 10 Jan to 31 Jan is so remote as to make 1 in 229 million look like a virtual certainty!
So there may be no ‘smoking gun’ linking the vaccination to the death rate, but the circumstantial evidence needs some strong explanation.
Looking at other countries with high vaccination rates per million, the UK has had a far higher excess death rate than its relatively unvaccinated neighbour France, and Israel is showing a worrying excess death rate as well.
But some people will believe what they want to believe.
“Alice laughed: “There’s no use trying,” she said; “one can’t believe impossible things.” “I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”
Lewis Carroll Alice in Wonderland.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. … “When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.” “The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.”
Am now wondering whether “Alice in Wonderland” is one of those childrens books one should re-read – only through adult eyes this time…
Yes. Charles Dodgson, the author, was university lecturer in mathematics. His writing for children was simultaneously an expose of the social world.
And a complex philosophical dissertation, probably the only one ever to be a fun read.
Try getting your mind round the ‘grin without a cat’.
It probably, almost perfectly, describes post modernism.
The White Rabbit is fascinating. It is a parable showing how you can follow the one piece of data which does not support a narrative and it leads to a whole new world of insight. Yes, read it again.
I am just pondering whether the Cheshire Cat, the one that carried on grinning after the cat had disappeared, could be a parable for covid – the ultimate ‘grin without a cat’?
The cat is covid, the grin is lockdown.
I can quote large chunks from The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party. Unfortunately that particular talent is not often requested.
We’re all down the rabbit hole.
“I passed by his garden and I marked with one eye,
How SAGE and big pharma were sharing a pie.”
In the reported studies of the mRNA vaccines one week after the injection there is often a reversible lymphocytopenia. It is easy to imagine that this could be of much more significance in the most elderly making them more susceptible for infection with other viruses but also including C-19
The striking thing in common with UK, Gibraltar, Israel and UAE is that immunisation was introduced in an already raging C-19 epidemic not yet reaching the peak. This could explain extra mortality in the elderly with C-19 and possible of other infections more than deaths of the vaccine directly.
In contrast in countries with mass immunisation of elderly in a falling outbreaks like Florida and other states in the US the same pattern has not been repeated. Perhaps not a good idea to start a vaccination campaign on the way up in the epidemic.
Anyhow, bad news for UK. One dose gives not enough reduction of death and severe disease according to Israeli data. It seems 70% protective but only 2 weeks after second dose.
Highly plausible, at least as a part explanation. But does it explain the apparent heart-related problems which occur in the days immediately after the vaccination?
Another informative post from Laurence btw.
I am afraid what you write is nonsense – taking just one thing, the UK pandemic finished at the end of May 2020 according to Heneghan’s CEBM chart so the first sentence of your second paragraph is 180 degrees wrong!!!
I am speaking of the second=seasonal wave which is undeniable.
Have a look at the CEBM deaths chart and tell me where the second wave is??? Of course there is a, seasonal rise, rise to 12,500 deaths (from week 46) but nothing like the 20,000 plus we had in week 16.
Well there is that rather alarming jump right at the start of 2021 (the short purple line) which is just after they started vaccinating.
They started with the most elderly first. Whether it had nothing to do with the vaccine, or a minor adverse reaction to the vaccine finished them off, or they died of other infections due to lymphocytopenia is not clear.
If they died of C19 after the vaccine that would be especially worrying. I doubt it’s easy to obtain data about this.
As far as Florida goes, do you know if there has not be a rise in excess deaths or just no rise in Covid-attributed deaths following the vaccine rollout? I know that lockdown zealots (unsuprisingly) often accuse Florida of covering up Covid deaths. If Florida does have a stricter criteria for classifying Covid deaths, I’m wondering if that would cause any potential vaccine-related deaths to be included as non-Covid deaths rather than Covid deaths.
If this is not a ‘smoking gun’ I don’t know what is. There is no certainty in science, but there is, ‘inference to best explanation’. The best explanation appears to be that the deaths are vaccine related.
If I go walking into a cow field and tread in a big steaming pile of shit i could think that the chances of it being out of a cow being quite high. Yes it could have been a horse or the farmer, his dog or a bird. However in science there comes a point were you have to say, if it looks like cow shit, smells like cow shit and you are in a cow field I think its safe to say the cow did it.
Absolutement.
The expected verbal diarrhoea from HM Fascists in answer to tbe letition to lufe restrictions after the wholesale jabbery.
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/564347
Includes a frank admission that the snake oils don’t reduce infection or transmission, or at least there’s no evidence. So, if they knew that before the jabbery, but gave the impression Snake Oil Macht Frei, they were lying on a huge scale. Maybe to head off mass rebellion when Christmas was snatched away?
Summer holidays next.
Nauseating Fascist claptrap, but includes admission that no snake oil can be shown to prevent infection or transmission. Of course they knew it all along, the liars.

Are 1 or 2 scientists starting to change viewpoints?
An Oppenheimer moment (O,my God,what have we done?)?
Changing opinion belatedly as further evidence is shown?
Or just starting to try and shift blame to the government and politicians before it gets put on them?
Any reliable news on Israel’s vaccination programme viz. outcomes?
Like buses, I’ve been offered the jab twice in 2 days and declined so far (supposedly more vulnerable than most) but I’m under pressure from family etc to take it.
Stay sane,everyone.
Devi has pivoted away from zero-Covid.
TC did ask about scientists though.
Harsh!
But fair…
Technically, isn’t she a “‘The Science’tist” rather than a “scientist”?
Really? is that because her boss is doing the shiny object thing to stop those “awkward questions?” How ironic? God i hate Divi!
The Telegraph article about an acceptable level of infection that quotes Heneghan has an excellent graph clearly showing the peak of deaths on the 19th January. Can someone cleverer than me please copy it as I was unable so to do.
Done.
Thank you Alex B
No worries!
It’s following the low curve of their model’s range quite well though even that is too pessimistic. Maybe they should be using the best case scenario instead of the worse. They might not look like utter catastrophising plonkers so much then.
Looks like the ‘prediction’ used is the ‘worst case’ rather than ‘most likely’. Now there is a surprise. Is there any way of determining the 95% confidence interval for the predictions? I am assuming the Mad Modellers don’t bother with such trivia.
It’s a perfect, Bell shaped curve according to Farr’s Law applied to epidemiology. Why Farr’s Law hasn’t been headlined from the get-go baffles me. Instead we had hysterical, exponential danger pummeled towards a public that has no perception of risk and daily deaths.
Hasn’t lockdown been wonderful – we must do it again sometime.
I’m thinking about taking a pass on that…
Your friend below shows a very few weeks when so-called vaccines were killing people in care homes. Look at ONS care home deaths. The pandemic finished at the end of last May. January had little to do with covid.
They are trying to create apartheid and we MUST OPPOSE IT NOW!! The notion of needing a test result to gain entry to a building or access to goods and services or education is UTTERLY ABHORRENT. They must be stopped. They will get the public to accept it as being somehow more acceptable than vaccine passports. It is NOT! It creates a “diseased until proven healthy” regime. It will lead to a horrific standard and allow them to do what they are doing (repulsive forced solitary confinement – which is considered torture by the UN) to travellers from “red zone countries” to ANYONE. This is terrifying. A disgusting violation of human rights. We must mount a campaign to get this stopped immediately!! What should we do???
They are not trying to create apartheid although that may be a by product.They want to make life so unbearable they we willingly submit to the vaccine and digital passport.That establishes the control grid.They can them move on to the next stage of the plan which is the reordering of the financial system and economy to conform to the zero carbon goals.
Yes I know… it’s horrific! But that is why we have to point out how unacceptable this next step is to unsuspecting businesses…
If the airlines and the travel industry haven’t worked it out by now then there isn’t a lot we can say.
Foreign travel I will forgo… for now… but there cannot be restriction to basic goods and services. That is unacceptable!
They have bought them in.
Remember it is a threat at the moment. The response should be not to give in to fear.
We are the carbon, that they want rid of. That should be clear to everyone by now. Everything else is a distraction.
i agree! and i just met 3 more wonderful people besides the wonderful friend i just discovered has been a sceptic all along and her husband is too,
the latest was a stranger in a store ,the sign to me that this is a possible fellow resister was the mask not covering mouth and nose,
so started chatting
who also wont get the vaccine and sees through it all .we are out there !
i hadnt been to a store in over a month because of my hatred of the rule[ only ever wear a scarf and do my best to let it fall down . and it still caused me so much stress.
will be writing to store owner soon , did monhts ago got no reply of course
Looking at the actual Pfizer research and the exceptions, those who absolutely ought not be vaccinated, is a huge group at least 20-30% of the population (it’s on page 37 of the Pfizer research). Nevermind the trial ends in January 2023, what are those supposed to do?
How can people with exceptions prove they can holiday, travel, buy food? It’s another manmade humanitarian disaster and again, not highlighted in newspapers en TV. Why aren’t reporters reporting on this?
Why aren’t reporters reporting on this?
Because they are part of the scam, whether they know it or not.

Covid discovered in Chinese steel imports
UK government scientists have discovered traces of the Covid virus in steel imported from China as far back as 2006
A spokesperson for the not for profit charity The Steel Emporium said
‘This has grave implications in areas from retail consumption to construction. Most of us have this steel in appliances in our homes. In addition many buildings constructed in the past two decades have been constructed using steel beams imported from China’
An unnamed government spokesperson said they were watching developments closely. The spokesperson added that they did not yet understand the full implications of the discovery but would be making an announcement the day before lockdown restrictions were due to be lifted
Reports of mutant steel rods are even now coming in from Colney Hatch.
Told you
And another one in Port Eliot in Conwall
I have an iron will, but even I will have to steel myself for the results.
Face space rods.
How can the virus possibly live long enough to get here? This is desperation.
And it could be in Grant Snaps butt plug!!
As a teacher I will not be sticking a giant chopstick up my nose to go to work. Neither will I inflict that on the children in my care.
If it somehow becomes illegal to refuse, then I will have to continue to teach via distance. I have been willing to work as per my contract since day one. If schools open tomorrow I will be there. But not like this. I will not be part of this insanity.
Isn’t it time like-minded teachers got together, and start underground classrooms? Maybe, next door to the underground gym?
There are some of us, certainly more than the unions and the MSM would have you believe. But just like the great reopening, it is all about strength in numbers.
It’s a conundrum, no doubt. But there must be an association of teachers/schools, who have done their best to keep schools open, to just get organised and start speaking out against these Common Purpose infiltrated unions!
MOST teachers are SCUM. I think the mathematics and science and language ones will be different. The arts ones are just SCUM who spent three years getting drunk and half heartedly handing in essays for some lightweight degree and now they think they are owed a living. They couldn’t survive a DAY in the private sector.
Yes, you MUST consider Underground Classrooms. It should be part of an underground economy, also, were those who refuse the jab to find themselves isolated from services. Though I hope it can all be STOPPED before then.
I’m in. Where do we sign up and how do we find the students?
First rule of teach club is you don’t talk about teach club!
Of course they would. Plus think of the bonus of not having ‘woke’ teachers who only offer indoctrination. It was bad enough when my kids were at school, with all the climate change BS, and other ‘queer theory’ nonsense, schools have become fully on steroid indoctrination camps.
Remember “Free Schools”? Could be their time for a moment in the sun again. Though, being in Wales (West Wales at that) I’d have been up for that anyway if I were a parent.
Or online? I have already started.
In Germany, we have Doctors, Lawyers, Teacher, Parents fuer Aufklaerung (Enlightenment) since Day 1.
Viciously being diffamated and even prosecuted for their courage and work.
Yes, Sucharit Bhakdi is thinking about moving to Austria, Salzburg, to get away from mandatory mask mandates in schools and such things.
I think underground will be the destination for many other things the way things are going.
And the underground pub and restaurant
If a country has ten million public servants that all go off for 6 months with stress, how much work in manhours will the government lose?
Show your working
I’m the head of statistics for a governmental department so this should be a doddle. 10 times 6, carry the 7, add 77 and divide it by Kuenssberg…. erm, anybody have a calculator?
Oh FFS just give it to Diane Abbot…..
Kajillions.
At 1.5 changed lightbulbs per million man hours per month, and factoring in breakages and changing the air in the room every 7.5 hours, that’s about ….
…0.0000001306218 [recurring]
good for you sir. we need more people like you, prepared to abandon the cowering attitude of ‘oh but my job, my job’ and first and foremost address this fascism, this creeping totalitarianism. do not consent to be its midwife. when the economy is crushed and the population duly culled, your job won’t be there any more anyway, will it
Like some of the comments I read on here yesterday from people in other jobs, we all have bills to pay and families to support, so not many of us can just quit. But on the other hand, most of this, be it testing or vaccines, is not actually law. It seems that way but relies on compliance and an aura of legality, meaning enough people acquiesce.
Not creeping.
Galloping.
the totalitarianism isn’t creeping – it is rampant – truly rampant – I can no longer bear to watch TV because everything now is vegan/climate change/covid 19 propaganda and all so achingly woke. I am sick of constantly being brainwashed – there are only so many times you can shout at the TV in one day
I suppose you could just chuck the testing kits in the bin and say that your kids continually test negative but thinking about it, I suppose our freedom loving government will insist on practical proof.
John Magufuli: test them on your goat or a papaya. nobody will know the difference! – but yes, you will still all be occasionally ordered to lock down on account of the positive result
Didn’t that papaya prove positive?
False positive!
Test them on freshly distilled water. Or just tell the bastards to eff off.
My office requires proof of weekly tests. I’m not sure this is strictly legal to be honest, demanding access to personal medical information. Fortunately I have a sane and decent line manager and nothing is ever said, but I am in a tiny minority.
Hope springs eternal.
Just draw the appropriate lines in the LFT and photograph it. I would imagine that the more mischievous kids will be drawing a pair of lines to get themselves and their class a couple of weeks off.
Most LFT don’t include sample controls (i.e. a test line for something that shows the correct sample was applied). So just dip the swab in water. If the test comes up positive, you can immediately claim the test kit is defective and that you were simply testing a negative control (water) to ensure the result was accurate.
Or you can just keep your mouth shut, say your test result is negative and keep working.
Good for you.
Well said, danny.
Thank you Danny, I wish more teachers would stand up to this nonsense and to the unions. I really want to withhold consent for my kids but desperately want them to get back to education and their friends.
Is there medical exemption for an extreme gag reflex leading to the recipient of the swab throwing up? I was told by my dentist that it’s genetic so would work for the whole family. (Unless they suggest the anal swab…)
My dentist calls it ‘sensitive palate’.
Hear, hear!!! We need more teachers like you ready to stand up to this nonsense. I’m amazed that many in that profession are willing to sacrifice children’s future and well being over what is a bad cold or flu season.
There will be hell to pay for this.
I fully agree with you.
The worry I have got is whether children who don’t want to be tested are going to be treated like lepers?
If testing is done at home, why does it need to be done properly? Surely you could just stick a chopstick a little way up a nose, enough to get some snot on it, and leave it at that?
That way, it would be quietly undermining the whole show.
Or just pour water on the tester. I’ll be fucked if I’m sticking that thing up my nose and doing a Linda Lovelace twice a week.
You wouldn’t want to be doing Linda Lovelace twice a week – she’s been dead for years…
Self testing is as useful as self identifying as the opposite gender
Complete bollox and open to abuse
The thing is mate who would admit to having it? Two weeks in solitary for you, your children and the whole class and their teacher? What madness is this. For a group totally unaffected by the virus. Worlds gone mad. Especially as you have ACTUAL COUNTRIES and some U.S states fully open to compare against. Salute your bravery in standing up to it.
I hope you are not marking these replies, my punctuation sucks, lol. Must do better!!
Substantial fall in Covid infections show that lockdown measures are working.
NO, IT PROVES THAT HERD IMMUNITY IS WORKING AS IT HAS DONE SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME.
Meaningless anyway since the measuring tool is useless …
Of course.
True but even when their only idiotic tool that has been giving out wrong info since day one turns against them you know it’s all going Pete Tong!
Or that the flu season is now coming to its normal end.
“It’s against my religion to take medical tests.” Say it loud and clear. A religion can be a deeply held philosophical belief. If they refuse you entry or goods and services, you are being discriminated against on the grounds of your religion. Violation of the Equality Act 2010. MY HEALTH, MY BUSINESS. They are attempting to remove our privacy rights, having already removed half our human rights. These fuckers want to UK to become the poster child for the “new normal” of a “social credit” system. This is the most sinister, oppressive regime and we have to stop them!
It is against my faith to ingest aborted fetal cells eg Moderna vaxx or any vaxx tested against a murdered baby. It is also against my faith to ingest drugs of any sort from opium to RNA changing concoctions. I don’t need it. I am not sick. I cannot transmit. I refer to Descartes for the obvious links in logic with a footnote to Ockham.
Ooh can we start a new religion?
it will prohibit the wearing of face coverings, and all medical interventions for the healthy (apart from contraception I suppose).
A key tenet of the religion will be close social contact, especially in pubs.Alcohol is considered a sacred substance that can only be drunk and not wasted in tubs of hand sanitizer.
Adherents to the religion should get their hair made as beautiful as possible and should not be prohibited from having their grey roots touched up, if this is considered by the devoted to make their hair more acceptable in the eyes of their god or their soul will be damned or something.
Zoom meetings and school lessons instead of in person ones are heresy.
They’ve set up a new religion anyway – the Church of the NHS and Wokerati so we should do tit for tat and set up our own.
No antisocial distancing, no masks, no gunk, no one way system; lots of hugs and everythinh open.
What should we call it?
There is one that’s started very small – it’s on Instagram. It’s called “Human Functionism” – the belief that our human functions work best with minimal medical intervention, that we need to breathe unobstructed, that close human contact is vital for our survival… it’s really important. Go check it out…
Where do I sign?
Ooh ooh! What about you have to listen to live, loud music in the pub and the evening will end all hugging and singing the sacred tunes. Wonderwall and American Pie. A long, long time ago, I can still remember!!
I have believed from the start that this is leading to the events we see in Revelation and nothing has happened yet to dissuade me from that. We are heading towards a one world monetary system, a cashless society and some kind of proof of vaccination to buy and sell. Therefore I will not partake in any of these rules because it goes against my faith. I do not follow Satan or any of his evil plans, I follow Christ.
We know how it ends:
Rev 14:8 Another angel, a second, followed, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality.”
Okay… let’s all become orthodox Christians. I’m game!! I believe in good over evil, and what we are witnessing is pure evil. I’ll go where the good people are. But none of the Catholic stuff, okay? Some of that is spooky. Not all Catholics are wrong, I know lovely reasonable ones who are more culturally Catholic than zealots ones – they scare me!
Not Catholic here, just a Bible believing, Jesus loving Christian. He has the answers, it was written down 2000 years ago. This is first and foremost a spiritual battle, good against evil. The ending’s good, but you need to be on the right side. Now’s the time to consider whether John 3:16 is true.
Is that the nonsense about Jesus being “the son of God”? Well, there is no God and Jesus was a great Arab teacher, son of a carpenter. His whole teaching was to tell us how the bible’s “eye for an eye” would leave us all blind. Two-thirds of the bible you believe is actually what Jesus fought against.
Bungle, I really appreciate your engagement in this subject. Jesus said, ‘Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.’ Matthew 5:17. Jesus is the fulfilment of all that was promised in the Old Testament. After he returned to Heaven he gave us his Holy Sprit so that we do not need to follow the Old Testament laws, but have Jesus with us (by his Holy Spirit) to help us to rise above even those laws and ‘turn the other cheek’. We no longer seek revenge because Jesus fills us with his love and we often don’t even desire it, but if we struggle, he helps us overcome. The Old Testament laws were give before Jesus was born and so people needed laws to guide their lives. Now the Word and the Spirit are our guides. I’m not trying to Bible bash you, only stand up for the One who died for me and you.
Please feel free to send me a DM if you want to seriously debate/discuss this subject. I have read the Bible through several times and have followed Jesus for nearly 30 years, I would be happy to discuss this subject with you, but this comments section is probably not the place.
It is only sin if we know they are lying. There are many who seem completely oblivious. Maybe the truth would terrify them(thinking of some of the older people in my church). They have always trusted the government and the BBC and I don’t think they are ready to have their bubble burst. Many will go to their grave believing that Boris is trying to help them. Thankfully there are some churches who are awake and seeing the signs of the times. Tony Pearce from Bridge Lane Fellowship has been a clear voice throughout this.
Ignorance is no excuse in the eyes law and neither can it be an excuse for believing the fear porn, that spews out of the BBC and most other mainstream media 24/7. It is incumbent on of each of us to do the leg work and get somewhere as near to the truth, as we possibly can. Most people are simply lazy and want to believe that the government really loves them.
Some elderly people in particular don’t use the internet and only watch the MSM. Can we give them some grace? Also the Behavioural Insights a team have worked hard to brainwash people. Some of those we love have simply been completely brainwashed.
The Xtians stole everything from paganism. See The Jesus Mysteries, was the original Jesus a pagan God? by T. Freke and P. Gandy.
Nose throat arse
The dictatorship has announced that it has no plans to ban the sale of custard slices
PHEW!!
And there will be an increase in the chocolate ration.
But only if the top slice is socially distanced from the bottom slice, and the custard in between is sanitised, and tested twice a day.
You are making things up now. Not taking Covid seriously could lead to the death of four million babies. Please behave yourself
Yes, don’t you know that having a sense of humour is absolute proof of Covid infection?
DOH!!!
Another vaccine myth busting advert https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-56101990
Massive propaganda campaign to persuade the ethnic communities to take the jab.It will be full of straw men arguments without ever addressing the main points.
Why do we need a vaccine for a virus within such a high survival rate and no one can claim it is safe,because of lack of testing.
and, last time I checked, when did the “featured” celebrities invoking their fellow BAME citizens to have the vaccine obtain their medical degrees? How on earth do they have ANY authority, moral or otherwise, to exhort people to take up an experimental vaccine with no known safety track record? They should hand their heads in shame.
As an African of Indian descent and a medical doctor with over 400 years experience I can definatly say that the pronouncements of these three stooges will increase the ‘vaccine’ refusal rate amongst BAME
As a person of colour (white) I agree.
You are a person of all colours, the ultimate in light spectrum diversity.
person of light
is the correct term
BAME groups should be reading this paper by a retired NHS consultant and demanding vitamin D not vaccines
http://www.drdavidgrimes.com/2020/10/covid-19-and-vitamin-d-summary-of.html
Also his Nov 2020 blog on the relative lifespans of white and BAME doctors. Absolutely staggering difference, thought to be due to greater deficiency in the latter.
I’ve been saying this since the day we first locked down last year – it’s all about the vitamin D status and the wonderful NHS that this is all supposed to be about is woeful at testing and treating for vit D status and deficiency
Only 400!
“Sky’s Stephen van Rooyen, meanwhile, said the network was “proud to be part of the biggest roadblock in television history”.
Roadblock? They’re talking about there being so much “misinformation” online. Yet they seem to be using celebrities who are not religious, and many of those in the BAME communituty are religious and will not take this vaccine for that reason.
This was really interesting. Sky news did an article about a rogue minister in August who sold fake Covid healing kits. More recently they’ve wheeled out the same guy to convince his congregation and the black Christian community that the vaccine is good(with no mention of his previous behaviour). Both the minister and Sky news are clearly very corrupt. This gives Christianity a bad name. I do not believe this man can know Jesus. Please don’t ever think someone like this reflects Jesus, this man is a liar and a charlatan. The government are trying to use faith leaders for their evil plans. That was one of the suggestions at Event 201. Good to know they are following the script.
here are the links to both stories.

Anyone promoting this filth is no Christian!
I agree, but he does no good for those of us who truly believe.
I think the Spanish invaders of S. America did enough for Christianity’s bad name, don’t you?
This is first and foremost a spiritual battle, it has been raging since the fall of man. Satan hates Christians and wants to destroy us. One of his favourite ways to destroy is from the inside because a house divided cannot stand. The true church has remained strong and faithful throughout persecution and we will not falter today, for we stand not in our own strength, but in the strength of God. The God of the Bible is not the God that many people think He is, He is the God of love, but many have entered into the church in an attempt to slander His name, but the truth remains, He never changes, He is love.
Indeed, I have avoided them in favour of decent preachers. JD Farag has given some fascinating prophecy updates, explaining everything we see going on from a Biblical perspective.
the article says
“The film will not be shown on the BBC because the corporation’s charter prevents it from taking part in campaigns,”
finally stopped laughing at this. The BBC is prevented from taking part in campaigns???
Nearly every journo in the BBC is campaigning, whether it is on covid, climate change, gender, indoctrination of children, wrong sort of politics etc etc . BBC policy is campaigning .
99 year old in hospital (private, of course) but it’s not Covid related.
Hello!!!, us sceptics don’t automatically think that everybody over 90 who goes into hospital has got covid and only covid.
He will test positive in due course
It is pre ordained
Probably.
But… but… he’s had THE VACCINE!
I looked into his eyes yesterday in the picture in the ToryGraph. He is already a zombie. hasta la vista in 5 day tops sadlidied of the lurgy. Epitaph: If not for the lurgy he might have lied to 1000 years old.
For anyone who runs a business or knows anyone who runs a business, how much financial help has the government given businesses and is this enough to keep business afloat. Lack of financial help I believe drove restaurants in Italy to re-open.
I am in shared building and don’t pay the business rates so could not get automatic grant, only discretionary. I have lost £100k so far and received a grant of £3k. Travel agents were also removed from list of those required to close as work could be continued from home. Many have missed out within travel industry. No specific sector help despite being the worst hit. https://www.travelweekly.co.uk/news/tour-operators/ons-data-reveals-covid-impact-on-travel-sector
Mate I am so sorry. It’s a disgrace that this is not front page news. As soon as there is a sniff that we can get away I am on the first plane out of here. Fuck Cornwall! It would be nice if we could set up a help your sceptic page where you can put your details and we can help out by using your services. I will send a suggestion to Will.
The amount my wife’s business receives covers 65% of just the rent. It’s our personal savings keeping it afloat.
It feels akin to being analy violated and having to pay for the lube.
We’ve lost about 30-40k, the grants pay the rent and elec etc. Luckily every time we reopen the business goes nuts, so we are lucky to have such loyal customers.
In my opinion the grants are just bullshit cover for supporting the banks again, council pays you, you pay landlord, landlord pays banks. The same with furlough govt>you>mortgage. Its not done out of kindness to you or your business its to keep the banks solvent. Fuckers
I think I have read every edition of LDS since it started. The tone at the start of it and the comments was to rebut the arguements for lockdown and put forward reasoned alternatives to save society and the economy. Now it is ever increasing anger and frustration as we move towards a one Covid Party state under our Lord Protector Boris.
Looking on the bright side, hopefully when the revolution comes he’ll have his potato head chopped off.
After he’s dead?
Morning all!

Good podcast this week guys. The modelling bit was spot on!
Fascists always go after the Kids.
Force the kids to test every week, maybe every day. Ramp up the hysteria. Bag them in diapers – triple diapers soon to be sure.
Then force them to take a vaxx…..that will be the next slippery slope step.
LDS has always promoted vaxx’s, it must be happy that forcing 99.7% of the pop who have no issue with the magical CV 19 to ingest experimental drugs is going to be de rigeuer policy.
They always start with the children.
Then put them in brown shirts…….
They’re not coming near my children. This is one mama bear they do not want to stir. I might like to write, but I’ll use that to fight, my children’s future’s at stake, these tests they won’t take!
TEST MY CHILDREN? NOT ON MY WATCH!
Boris can’t stop spending,
He really cannot rest,
He’s had a new idea,
The youngsters he will test.
To boost the Covid cases,
And keep us all locked up,
He needs to test the children,
Our leader is corrupt.
The children they will suffer,
They’re learning to obey,
Just follow all their orders,
To question’s not ok.
We need to wake up quickly,
Their brainwashing our youth,
We must say no to testing,
We must stand up for truth.
Excellent!

THE GREAT RECALL
Corona Ausschuss
4 hour summary in English of legal actions from around the world.
UK is conspicuous by its absence
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-9mIzS-Gq0&feature=emb_logo
So, the virus has been falling away since just after Christmas because we have reached the seasonal, endemic equilibrium; the same thing happened in the middle of March 2020. What are the bets that “researchers” will now conclude that the reason for this is that the “vaccines” have stopped transmission? Thank God for New Zealand!!!
Normal seasonal recurrence dressed up as second wave just as predicted here many times from about May last year onwards.
And let’s see how NZ does in winter??
Let’s get this out there! Remember… we are the lucky ones. We have never been taken in. The poor souls who have been terrorised into staying locked up in their houses, making their homes their prisons… they need rescuing!
An Englishman’s home is his castle NOT his PRISON!
Good morning.Some of you may be interested in reading ‘Live Not By Lies’ by Rod Dreher. He explores the stories of Christians who lived under Communist regimes and how they are alarmed by what they see happening in the world today. A thought-provoking and challenging read.
The Devon Live news reports on Covid;
Across Devon there are currently 71 areas which are cluster-free, according to the latest data. The recent figures released by the Government today, relating to new positive Covid-19 cases between February 6 and February 12, also showed the whole of Torridge is now cluster free. (A cluster free area means there have been less than three new positive cases recorded in one seven-day-period.).
So effectively the local press is reporting that my area along with many others in Devon are effectively at Zero-Covid. I have recently had replies from my MP and local Devon County Councillor, both conservative but surprisingly the replies though not sceptical, were positive and seemed to express genuine concern for the effect of lockdown on local children, rural community life and small businesses. Apparently all Devon MPs are meeting on weekly basis to discuss the lockdown situation, one can only guess that they are finding it difficult to support draconian life debilitating lockdowns in areas that seem to rapidly be going zero-covid. Hopefully a small chink of light? if one brick comes out of the wall there is a chance the wall might fall down? … we live in hope.
But how will they vote when the lockdown, C/V act comes up for renewal? If they can see its wrong and there are lots of areas with similar numbers they must vote this down to take away the government’s powers.
If you want to make a difference please circulate this information by whatever social media you use or print out and hand to people.
“Covid in Context”
http://covid-context.com/assets/leaflet.pdf
Thank you, alw, I will add this leaflet to my anger-busting bombardment of flyers on my self-righteous, virtue signalling village (Back to Normal, backtonormal.org.uk, and Recovery, timeforrecovery.org, already out there).
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2021/02/18/the-psychological-state-of-america.aspx?ui=249949329df581682e05c54e7c49dd9c39e8ef605b13cfbfe5e47ee8868a483c&sd=20210130&cid_source=dnl&cid_medium=email&cid_content=art1HL&cid=20210218&mid=DM798025&rid=1086751774
This is spot on…I have seen the look of terror on some people’s faces when they see me approaching without a mask even though I am perfectly healthy. I did try to explain that to one who was clinging to a wall to avoid me but that seemed to send her into a fit of hysterical rage.
She was certainly suffering from a delusion and she may well be a future resident in a psychy ward.
I have had people literally jump out of the way when they have seen me in the supermarket. This is not uncommon.
It will take a heck of a lot for those people to even regain some semblance of ‘normality’. People have been literally terrified by govt and the psychosis is deep and possibly permanent.
To HELL with those people. WE will live, regardless.
I still remember that woman who turned to face the wall when I walked past her in the escalator. And a colleague who constantly tried to back off me.
Both of them are definitely good candidate for a spell in the funny farm.
When someone pulls that “leap a mile away from me and look Scaredy” stunt at me – I definitely never thank them for moving aside and, in fact, give them a very quizzical/puzzled look, as in “WTF? I wonder why on earth they are moving away from me for no good reason” look.
If they are wearing a mask I sometimes say “thank you for protecting me” then laugh maniacally.
Ive found myself doing similar things
Good find – this is the only way to try and sway those on the fence
Not with conspiracy (even if you believe it is or not) but with tangible arguments that relate to everyday life
As an example of how people have literally stopped being able to assess real and imaginary risk, we recently had to brake to avoid hitting a woman who actually stepped off the pavement into the path of an oncoming car to ‘make space’ for another pedestrian! Government messaging is going to kill people. Lucky for her we were a car of sceptics and looking out for such deranged behaviour.
Actually, gov messaging already has killed people, but jumping in front of cars is a new low.

Teachers who go along with this should examine their conscience.
They should say NO. They are not required to cooperate with this experiment and, like parents, should demand assessment of the risks to mental health of this indoctrination of fear.
We are creating long covid.
IF we get through this, leading members of teaching unions need to be put on trial for complicity and silence, and if found guilty, imprisoned for life. And I mean, LIFE!
ANYONE on this forum who disagrees with this is just does not understand the HORROR of what is due to happen.
I am SICK of apologists for these SCUM.
Including school governors who are supporting the teachers. One of these school governors is an Oxford educated neighbour…so up her own fundament. Say no more.
Major leaders of Unions are recruited or coopted by State Security.
‘Parents to test school children twice a week’
…suuuuuure, they are.
While UKGOV’s schemes have already, largely, come off the rails, this wizard wheeze is will surely reduce them to twisted, steaming scrap metal.
I bet most will just pretend. Maybe ask the kid to pop it in its mouth, just in case they have been brainwashed by the school and start talking. My god, that we have come to this.

Breaking news
Government announces new £5bn job creation scheme for graduates
The ‘Pick Up To Make Up’ government funded scheme will provide employment for up to 5,000 graduates leaving University this year
The scheme will involve picking up discarded face masks, cutting them up by hand and repurposing them as insulation for ground source heat pumps
Foreign exchange student Whoda Thunkit welcomed the scheme
Whoda who is in the third year of her GreenTree Life Skills course at the University of Portreath said
‘This is great news. Even without Covid there was no chance of me getting a job with my qualification.
It’s been a really tough year but I now feel it has all been worth it. I have not left my room in the halls of residence since March and have survived on fellow students sliding tins of baked beans under the door”
Whoda has also had personal tragedy to contend with this year having lost 14.8 relatives including three step dads
Whoda added
“Things are really looking up now. I hope to get a job in the sorting depot as it pays 10p an hour more”
(This news item has been fat checked by the Cecil B Foundation)
You’re on a roll Cecil! Keep making me chuckle.
I only got as far as Whoda Thunkit
The Cecil B Foundation should fat check EVERYTHING
Should be in charge of everything!
You made me chuckle. This no more absurd than much of the stuff churned out by the government machine
White people need not apply
The fetishisation of old age.
Has anyone else noticed the contrast of the current era with the era around 2016?
Then there was a fetishisation of youth who were seen as pro EU and open, cosmopolitan, forward looking etc. By contrast the oldies were seen as racist and backward and xenophobic.
Fast forward to 2020 and the oldies are suddenly seen as wise and cuddly and so valuable that the economy must be trashed to save them. By contrast the young are pilloried for being selfish and irresponsible for disregarding the dangers of covid.
Any thoughts?
just shows how susceptible and absurd people are, and how successful media manipulation/77th brigade is.
It’s more like death is unacceptable and tragic. Just look at the maudlin reactions to Captain Tom’s death, the man was 100 for crying out loud but the papers were making it like it was tragic. Instead of being philosophical about the whole thing and saying that he had a good life and dying at 100 was a send off.
Our society has become so averse to death. Witness how people have gone ape over deaths of characters from TV dramas. And this going ape has now transpired into real life where suddenly its unaccpetable to die and those of us who question the narrative are regularly denounced as callous and wanting people to die.
That said since when was it acceptable to die of cancer or suicide but not for Great Aunt Ethel to die of Covid? (to paraphrase Sir Charles Walker)
Discuss.
The destruction of multi-generational households in the same neighborhoods, is probably the biggest factor. As well, medical advancement in prolonging life, as opposed to health, has meant caring for the very elderly today, is a very different proposition from what it was 50 years ago.
I’m not too sure about multi-generational houseohlds even in the same neigbourhood as they have their downsides as well especially with the old able to exert control over and able to bully their children and grandchildren. But that’s for another day.
I do agree with the medical advancement in prolonging life – it has extended the lifespan but not necessarily the quality of life.
coming from an abusive caste-based patriarchal community, I agree there are sometimes terrible downsides in close-knit communities, however, when it works, which it would always, given the right social infrastructure, there is a support system, which, when it’s unavailable, you become a reluctant client of the state, with no real autonomy in the process.
Agree. I come from an East Asian culture which reveres the old hence why I said the above about the old having the ability to exert control or bully the younger generation. Another downside is lazy members of the family taking advantage of the ones who have bettered themselves.
Both systems have pros and cons. I always believe that the best way is to be financially independent so one does not have to rely on the family or the state.
How to find the fine line between responsibility and independence? It’s all very well being financially independent, but when it comes to the time, I don’t want a stranger helping me to wipe my bottom, and I certainly don’t want to spend my last few days in a hospital/care home, at the mercy of the organisation, regardless how benign and well run and my sincerest hope is, I hope I won’t burden my children, but that they’ll be there for me 8f needed.
Good question and I don’t think there’s a foolproof answer.
I don’t have children and Mr Bart and I have agreed that we will go into a home while we’re still fairly alert and well.
i am staying with my mother (age 90+ and dementia) whilst my stepfather 90+ is her carer and he is in hospital for an operation. My mum isnt my mum anymore and her quality of life is poor. Would i be grieving if she died. no – i would be sad, and i would miss her but i do already. That is being philosophical about it, as Bart suggests, and it is the only way to deal with death
Exactly. When my maternal grandmother died at the age of 102, my mum simply said that it was good the way she died – peacefully and that she had a good run.
Was she sad? Yes but that was about it.
There is no society. You have close family, friends if your lucky. Our so called society is just manipulation, just theatre
Not all of them. Many are like Gagool: greedier for life than the young, and anxious to throw everything into the maw if death in order to save themselves.
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a needle jabbed into a human arm — for ever.” ― Billyus Gatesus, 2021
I think you are absolutely right…I think the commentariat pick groups that can be used as a battering ram to further their deeper agenda. Its all bollocks and a cover for the real motives. We saw the same with BLM who were strangely silent on black on black drive by shootings in Chicago and regular genocide in African states.
It’s about creating divisions even where none exist to destabilise society and leave people without trust and support and weakened to the point that they will comply more easily – as many people have said on here, it’s the technique of the abuser. So many have been Stockholm syndromed into compliance and of course the next group to be targeted will be the unvaccinated (I’ve just been asked by a vaccinated relative whether I still use the local supermarket and when I said I did there was a response that suggested to me that he didn’t approve of such dangerous and antisocial behaviour).
Tell him/her you don’t approve of the anti social behaviour of people who support the destruction of society for a virus that almost everyone recovers from. Time to bin that relative off the christmas card list.
It looks as if the vaxxed have been primed to put pressure on the rest of us to conform by saying “OOOOOH….I don’t feel safe near you (ie because you’ve not been vaxxed)”. They’re hoping our fears of being sent to Coventry (and yes I can think of a ?friend? who I’m aware might pull that stunt on me and several others likely to join her in doing so) will ensure we get vaxxed. So if they are weak-minded enough to believe all that guff and to then be so nasty to me as to even think of doing that to me = then why would I want to be friends with them anyway? I’d rather go out and find some new friends – amongst nice people this time. Frankly – I’d rather spend my life as a hermit than be amongst nasty/selfish people like vax pushers.
Just pretend, I will do so with certain people.
Propaganda works
Yes. I was talking to my mum about this several days ago. I remember there being lots of noise around the fact that so many old Brexit voters will have died as the months went on so could we now possibly re-run the referendum? All said in a vaguely hilarious tone but venomous nonetheless.
This was only a few years ago. We cannot be the only people to remember this stuff? I am baffled.
I remember that – and as someone that isn’t elderly yet (still in my 60’s) thinking “How DARE you wish me dead – because I voted for Brexit. That’s my right and my business. Tough luck matey on trying to pull a stunt like that – I’ll still be alive myself to vote the exact same way again”.
Might have something to do with the fact that virtually all the drivers of this car crash planet are, themselves, long-in-the-tooth. From Klaus to Fauci to Boris to Farmer Bill, himself, they’re all more than a bit shop-worn, aren’t they.
Moreover, for as long as I can remember, the young have been convenient scapegoats for society’s ills.
I have had this thought since the very beginning of all this; I remember in 2016 when the results of the referendum came in and there was a very nasty response from a lot of the people I worked with at the time, directed mainly toward the older generation, whom they blamed for the result.
Fast forward to December 2019 and the Conservative victory; I was working somewhere else but the reaction was the same – I have a vivid memory of one of my coworkers saying “well it’s the old people’s fault, but that’s fine, they’ll all be dead soon anyway”
What’s interesting about her and those like her, they’re all very left wing progressive types. This very same person, come March 2020, was singing to the hymn sheet of the Conservative party: save the NHS! And of course that cloying phrase “stay safe!” Hand wringing concern for the old folk she hoped would meet the grave promptly enough to ensure the correct voting outcome!
So ultimately, what struck me about this is the progressives will simply latch onto any group that are politically expedient to them at the time. It reminds me of something C.S Lewis said about progressivism, something to the effect that both the train and the station are constantly moving, therefore a destination cannot be reached. These people sure do have short memories.
I am an oldie..yuk, and not a fetishist, but I wished I was, but not rubber and that stuff. I do not see this as binary as you say, this is a period of mass insanity the humanoids go into at times to stir it all up and see what settles, old young all have a part to play in gleaning the positives from the mad shit.
I don’t understand people who say they will take the vaccine in order to be able to travel.
To me it doesn’t appear to be a one-off deal whereby you have the jab and then you are free to travel for the rest of your life. It looks more like a permanent arrangement whereby you can continue to travel only as long as you continue to let them keep giving you injections of whatever they like.
Fine if you trust the authorities. What if you don’t?
We have no reason to ever trust them again.
I never trusted them to start with.
Those who have chosen to do this may reap what they have sown.
It’s not like most people are jumping on a flight to Majorca next week. What’s the rush?
Government ministers and their advisers have repeatedly stated that the vaccinated have to comply with all the coronavirus restrictions.
If you keep having the toxic rubbish regularly injected into you, if you are lucky enough to survive this beyond the next couple of years, chances are you may not be well enough to even get on any plane.
Talking to a doctor friend yesterday about vaccines and why so few people have had second jab. Apparently there is no rollout plan for second vaccination and medics are having to throw away unused vaccines because nobody wants. In addition doctors are not getting paid until they have given the second job. Think this is part of the plan to keep us in permanent lockdown.
Well – if the doctors are indeed not being paid until after 2nd vax – then that will hopefully backfire spectacularly on the Government – as surely lots won’t be going back for Vax 2. Whereas the Government obviously thought the doctors would do their best to “persuade” them back for no. 2 in order to get their payment.
hence all the calls being reported here. whodathunk
I just have this image in my mind of the mass of humanity, on an eternal conveyor belt of testing and vaccinating followed with a synthetic meal, with a virtual reality headset clamped on permanently.
Re-read ‘The Machine Stops’.
Thank you. Another one for my list of “Recommended by Annie.”
Thankfully, we won’t need that headset once we’re hooked up to Neuralink.
But of course. The Hive Mind watches and waits.
Good luck getting under 1000 positive tests a day when you are testing kids 16 million times a week. At least you’ll have Scotland for company as Stalin will never ease the lockdown here, irrespective of test results.
Precisely the intention.
Yep…
Parents expected to test their kids twice a week? Good luck with that. At least someone will make a killing from the test kits.
As EVERYONE NOW KNOWS that all those tests are unreliable and absolutely useless the way we use them, that MUST BE the real reason for doing them.
Plus their continued ab-use as authoritarian, denigrating and torture instruments.
Why is everything that ends in ‘Foundation’ a fraud?
Why is Johnson such a fraud? Even his surname isn’t real.
Because fraud is the foundation of anything having to do with money.
What has struck me more and more recently is the seemingly lack of pushback from many business sectors. The airline and travel industry, the hotel and hospitality sector, breweries, concert and event companies etc. You’d think they’d all be up in arms over the restrictions and lost business yet I’ve not heard much at all. Is something going on?
Agree. It’s been a bleeding mystery.
I’m beginning to wonder if they’ve been bribed or promised significant concessions when this is all over. Otherwise its not in a business or sector’s interest to remain shut for nearly a year with nothing coming in.
Beginning to wonder?
There is a Reset agenda at work. You should have worked this out SIX MONTHS ago!
FFS They will make a FORTUNE from payoffs and whatever they merge into.
My workplace was not allowed to put us on fulough and has had to go cap in hand for loans to keep us afloat. Certainly there are certain companies that are being favoured and the rest can go to hell.
Why no-one has cottoned on to this is a bleeding mystery.
UK column had a report regarding this.Marc Carney made a speech saying that unless companies conform to the zero carbon agenda they will be allowed to go under.
I’ve been amazed since the beginning that they all stepped back from losing their billions without a squeak
It depends on whether any media outlet is prepared to give dissenting industry voices a platform to be heard.
Or, have they been promised something behind closed doors that we don’t know about?
The industry voices who have dared speak out have been accused of putting their business interests ahead of health.
It’s a very emotive accusation but economically illiterate & irresponsible.
As soon as anyone speaks about loss of business, they’re treated as greedy granny killers.
This. Don’t underestimate the power of moral pressure. Plus the gov used tax payer money to pay them.
Because the big boys are IN ON IT!
They will get MASSIVE pay-offs.
And there WILL be a travel industry but just for those elites who can really afford it.
WAKE UP!
As for small businesses, they deserve to go under.
We are so going to need small businesses – more than ever imo. Reason being all those people that are likely to be sacked (a few already have been!!!) for refusing the vax. There’s likely to be quite a few people that hadn’t planned on doing anything on a self-employed basis that will be wondering what business they can set up to earn some income for themselves. Well – it’s either that or “back to the land in the woods” or unemployed steadily (all of which are states that could maybe go on for a year or two or three – until this “game” is over and we get back to Normal, because even a lot of the sheeple have finally woken up). At the moment there’s lots of sheeple proudly boasting “I’ve lost one/two/three people to Covid” when there’s every chance it wasn’t Covid at all that killed them and they maybe didn’t even have it in the first place. Wait till the sheeple find that sentence gets replaced by “I’ve had one/two/three friends and relatives get injured or killed and They are telling us it was coincidence that it happened just after they had The Vax”.
It’s all about moving assets around, THAT is all.
During redundancy consultations last year, employer presented hotel forecasts that showed a return to usual occupancy levels by 2024.
I thought that was nonsense at the time…..
When the reset happens, it will take place over a few days. They will simply shift to a digital currency and social credit system.
Yes I have wondered the exact same thing
From the very little that I know…..the pilots union (BALPA) have just written an open letter to the PM which they are asking all pilots to sign. They say they have been trying to get something out the government for support from day one, but there has been no response.
I also saw a list of airlines somewhere that have received a subsidy from governments. I can’t remember all but do remember EasyJet getting (I think) circa £80m and TUI being bailed out (for the second time) by the German government because don’t forget TUI are German. As for the rest I have no idea, especially the likes of Jet2 who before all this owned all their planes, equipment etc and a logistics company (lorries). I heard they’d sold the logistics company to help the airline but that was at least middle of last year, no idea how they are still going….or Virgin for that matter.
Employees have never mattered to the airlines, those that work for them (or worked) know that very clearly. All that matters is profit, bonuses and the shareholders.
Lufthansa tops its captains 5k/month furlough payments up to 15k/month with the state aid they received to keep afloat.
Bit off topic but I looked on flightradar last night and there were so few flights over UK – you could probably count on one hand. Seemed to be mainly cargo planes UPS, Fedex and a couple of commercial. With UK being one of the busiest flight paths it was sad to see, and hate seeing the destruction of the travel industry along with others.
I notice quite a few flying over London but no doubt in the past there were more – after all there are five significant airports in the neighbourhood of London.
Yep.
They seem to be more interested in negotiating for a larger share of the handouts&subsidies pie instead of trying to earn their living in the markets and with other private businesses and customers.
They are active main participants in all the woke and discriminatory agendas too, first out of fear of being shamed and its cost, now because they are state dependent believers.
But the numbers confirm and explain that: practically evsry business and every wage is direetly or indirectly dependant upon government spending now, and will continue to be until the state is bankrupt.
An economy that contracted by 10% with gov/debt GDP increasing 20% age points and previous equal gov/private sector shares has really contracted 30%, and its private sector has really contracted 60!% then, meaning the gov/private sector shares are now are no longer an already far too high equal, but 80/20!
We are basically living in socialism already, we/businesses just prefer to fool ourselves about it.
Douglas Murray made that point a few years’ ago when the issue of “Corporate social responsibility” was brought up. While its right and proper that companies should treat their employees fairly and responsibly as is their customers they don’t need to make a big song and dance about being anti-racism or pro-LGBT, etc. I go to a bank or supermarket to use their services, I don’t need to know that they’re figting racism or the like.
Businesses are run by people, and the people running the businesses were blindsided much as we were by the sheer pace and force of the panic in early 2020. There was little resistance to the fear propaganda and no time to organise. Those like Dolan who reacted strongly and quickly were few and far between.
It takes time to recover and to organise intellectual and political resistance that can motivate and empower actual resistance on the ground by people running businesses, who have a lot to lose by doing so if it means defiance of law and popular panic.
Obviously here I’m not talking about the businesses that benefit from the panic – mostly the big multinational corporations in sectors that gain from having their competition shut down or from the effects of lockdown.
I suspect that in many cases it is because only the official industry “voices” will be listened to, and they are dominated by the biggest players in their respective sectors. They weren’t going to rock the boat because they thought they had the resources to weather this (as well has having been given Mr Sushi’s Magic Money) whilst their smaller competitors withered and died. They were banking on a win/win, but the longer this goes on the more difficult it will be for them to maintain that position. Expect howls of pain to increase in intensity.
According to YouGov 190 million
comradespeople in the UK think we should test kids twice per week. Perhaps also shoot or eat them.Progress, that’s down 10% from the last poll
Indeed
comradeCecil. In the last poll only 100 million agreed. A 10% reduction.YouGov get the results they want, as do all polls
The now tory minister of vaccines created YouGov.
I got through the latest one yesterday and, going through it, a lot of the questions seemed to be centred round whether I believed in karma – which I personally do – but this is Britain (ie a nominally Christian country). So I was rather surprised for them to be asking it. I’m guessing the way the questions were (obviously deliberately) slanted was they were trying hard to draw a conclusion that meant Covidians could go “Oh they are paying for their sins of omission (ie not having the vax etc) – it’s karma – they deserve it”. No – when I say I believe in karma – I really believe in karma and I wouldnt want to be Ferguson, Whitty or Johnson in their next life or three LOL.
YouGov is Nadhim Zahawi and family. Say no more.

They should be defunded and closed down.
Absolutely!
I love it… you really sound as angry as me this morning! We HAVE to go to war on this testing bullshit. They knew their dodgy vaccines weren’t going to work. That gives them the leverage to instigate these tests. “Just a simple test to prove you’re negative…” (in small print: if you are positive you will be incarcerated at a facility for 14 days and longer if we take another positive test, and forever if you keep testing positive, you filthy, diseased biological human being…)
I am furious but I keep my anger in a compartment. I try to enjoy things like listening to music etc
It’s not the stones but what they contain even if things are a bit weird at the moment. 96 Nobel prizes from Cambridge by 2016, more than any country apart from USA and Germany (plus UK obviously). One college, Trinity has more than any country apart from that list plus France. That’s worth something. Join the Freee Speech Union and argue against and laugh at the nonsense.
Private College in our town has a frigging BLM sign prominently attached to a wall facing a main thoroughfare

Summer holiday booked. 2 weeks in Italy, and no vaccine passport needed. £261 each way by FedEx signed for!
Thinking about Johnsons (utterly ludicrous) target of 1000 cases a day again the numbers are being looked at wrong.
Surely you have to remove all the cases that caught in hospital (40% according to the above) as clearly those are caused by NHS incompetence and are not affected by lockdown.
Similarly the cases caught in care homes (I seem to remember thats 20% of cases though I may be wrong).
Also remove the percentage of false positives.
Are we close to 1000 yet? We cant be too far away……
One of the many fundamental questions that cannot be answered is what is the accurate picture of symptomatic Covid in the community.
As a Rebel, my gut tells me it is low and always has been. It’s a disgrace that we cannot pinpoint this vital piece on information.
I totally agree.
In North Germany (that’s where I am from and I look at their newsstation) they recently had outbreaks at:
Meatprocessing plant 210
Ice cream factory 170
Care home 30
care home 20
etc
If covid is so contagious why can’t people just breathe on their test prod instead of having to poke around?
You don’t even have to do that. Some people have tested fruit, shoes, the family dog, and even not swabbed anything at all and still tested positive.
you can fool some of the people all of the time!
I’ve been asking this since day 1 yet none of the Covidians can give an answer
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00425-6/fulltext
Lancet helps debunk the myth that PCR test is the so called Gold Standard. Good news.
It’s RIDICULOUS. There is nothing GOOD about it!
What is GOOD about finally not participating in one of the greatest FRAUDS of history?!
Well, we are where we are, but at least some of the excuses are being debunked (not that anyone in power will listen, of course!).
Testing MUST BE STOPPED!
“Somehow the Government has allowed itself to drift into de facto membership of the Zero Covid cult. It needs to snap out of it and remember the plan. The one where we discover a vaccine then go back to normal. Actual normal. Not new abnormal.”
The Government is not allowing anything or drifting along. It’s actively implementing an oligarchic coup on behalf of the Great Reset cult, and zero covid is the latest lie to march the masses along into the techno-totalitarian biosecurity state, ‘vaccines’ (or rather internally colonizing means of population control) and more. There’s no going back to the old abnormal for this agenda, only the Brave New Normal World Order. Rise up, or be led to the slaughter.
Had the first of my work training yesterday and during the session about “working around Covid” the issue of social distancing reared its ugly head again.
I questioned the wisdom of being shut for 2 days when being open for 7 days like we’ve always have would at least give people the option of choosing from which of the 7 days to visit rather than only 5. I’ve long held the belief that people panic when they see the days that are shut and try to squeeze into the other days we’re open.
I also reminded everyone in the training session that with more people losing their jobs or filing for bankruptcy we will not exactly be swamped by visitors when we reopen as we will be classed as “luxury” by people struggling to make ends meet.
Many of my colleagues were in favour of limiting ther numbers even more but the manager took my side and said that since we’re in a deep financial hole, we will need all the visitors we can get. I was told that our opening days is constantly subject to review.
This just goes to show how economically illiterate many people are. Perhaps instead of some of the useless padding we will have next week, they should have a session devoted to “How We Make Money and How It Doesn’t Grow on Trees.”
Jesus wept.
Why are people so economically illiterate?
Perhaps they’re socialists?
I’m a grown up, go somewhere else with BS like that!
If you think socialism works, you haven’t studied history and you don’t understand human nature.
Quite. Socialist societies did a much better job of killing their own people than capitalist ones ever did of killing foreigners. Despite their best efforts.
Well said.
Yep. Or their parents have never taught them where money comes from.
Go on then, where does it come from?
The trees in the back garden of No11 Downing Street of course
Sunak has an estate of Magic Money Trees.
It is not the Magic Money Tree.
Honestly, why don’t people like you grow up. So you’ve got something against people who are socialists. Bully for you but can’t you find a site with other narrow minded people to chirp with? This site is for lockdown sceptics,not anti-socialists, although we allow one as he, she or it sometimes says something useful.
It’s the communist manifesto isn’t it? That was one of the propaganda slogans going around at the start of this. The accusation that people cared “more about the economy than people”. “Oh, you care about the economy do you? Well, personally I’d rather be poor than LET PEOPLE DIE!” It’s to change the mindset of those living in a capitalist democracy… to make them attack that so they accept a centralised economy designed to “protect all” (but also control all, stripping everyone of their fundamental human rights, their bodily autonomy, their freedom of expression… all GONE.) They are not economically illiterate, they’ve been slowly brainwashed.
That’s a good point and of course the brainwashing is aided by trite slogans like “People before Profit” – simple and appeals to the emotion. Then people end up parroting it and not bothering to question it.
Offer those that favour lower numbers a salary that reflects the lower numbers, which will of course soon become no salary. See if that changes their minds
As we still see, many people are feeling no pain or consequences for this nonsense. Until they do they will remain in cloud cuckoo land
That’s a good idea. Funny how we’ve just come though a redundancy process and that still hasn’t woken up my colleagues.
So I see they are now saying headaches, sore throat, diarrhoea are symptoms of Covid. This is just so transparent. They want anyone who has these symptoms to get tested. They are really scraping the barrel now. It’s absolutely shocking!
Are hunger and thirst symptoms as well?
Am guessing depression must be a symptom too – apparently. After all – all of us that are against Lockdown are probably depressed.
… and those in favour of lockdown have induced psychosis.
Malnutrition was a key indicator for diagnosing AIDS.
Rapid weight loss, leading to the illness being nicknamed “Slim” in Africa.
Breathing?
They probably will be along with all symptoms of every disease ever known to man or am I being too cynical!
They’re pretty much saying that simply being alive is hazardous to health.
I’m waiting for someone to be honest and say that mass seppuku is the only way to stop the spread of the virus and achieve zero Covid.
Then they can go ahead to set an example.
Some have already stated this:
Covid 19 is NOT a disease.
It is a merely a collection of as many symptoms as they can get away with indicating ‘IT’.
And breathing?
This could be the only real safe vaccine administered as a nasal spray. Logical local protection and stimulating also IgA immunity.Only on hamsters yet but promising.

Live attenuated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate: Protective immunity without serious lung lesions in Syrian hamsters
“One of the strains, A50-18, which presented mutations in nonstructural protein 14, did not replicate at all at 37˚C in vitro. In vivo experiments demonstrated that this strain replicated inefficiently in the lungs of Syrian hamsters, and intra-nasal inoculation induced sufficient anti-SARS-CoV-2-neutralizing antibodies to protect against wild type virus infection. These results suggest that the A50-18 strain could be a promising live attenuated vaccine candidate against SARS-CoV-2.”
Was the hamster masked?
Good information, certainly one reason I give for not getting jabbed now is that I live in a low covid area and there are other possibly better options coming along. Also I need to know which vaccinations will be acceptable for international travel, these new vaccine possibilities may eventually have more universal acceptance and recognition.
Stop talking like Covid is still a threat in Britain, it’s over, the virus passed through, and is over. Get it! The only people dying because of this shit now, are those who got jabbed, and those refused treatment in our beloved NHS.
I don’t believe now it was ever a threat: the whole thing, from the people dying on the streets in Wuhan, the live bats in the wet market, the whistleblower doctor who died, the wuhan lockdown, the northern Italy lockdown, the Diamond Princess, the chartered flights to rescue western citizens from China, the ‘escaped from the lab’ conspiracy theory…everything…from start to finish, lock stock and barrel, it was all a psyop, 100% fiction, and the sick and the dead are nothing other than the usual sick and dead that have been with us from time immemorial from usual seasonal respiratory viruses. I wish it were about just a pandemic, that would be far less terrifying than it being about an evil totalitarian technocratic coup, a genocide, a satanic death cult
I only present a new article which might be of interest. There are more safer vaccine possible and nasal spray vaccine is very attractive form of immunisation.This could be of interest for people in high rik groups anxious about the the new expereimental vaccines with only EAU. My link above is only a fact based link and has nothing to do with the exagerrated threat level. By definition an endemic virus does not disappear.
Thanks for the link. It looks like they’re a bit late to the party with this though, possibly because this traditional style of vaccine does take longer to make because you basically have to wait for the virus to evolve into the vaccine.
It would have been a fallback if the other vaccines hadn’t worked. But the vaccine race is very much first past the post. The UK for example has already bought more than enough AZ to jab everyone several times over. Even Novavax (who have an effective and cheap vaccine) but were third across the line are having a bit of a wobble in their stock price.
There are/were something like 200 Covid vaccine projects on the go, most of which will probably never be produced.
Not sure if this one would have necessarily been safer but a nasal spray seems to have a few advantages. The risk with live vaccines is they evolve back into viruses… I think some Polio outbreaks in Africa are caused by this effect.
Shoving a chopstick up a 12 year old’s nose twice a week.
Best of luck with that!
PS: I’m sure everybody can remember one kid in every class, in every school in the land who managed to get a crayon stuck up his/her’s nose.
Just detached thoughts.
Which still leaves them having to have one of those awful tests once a term – as, obviously, the others will be done by testing a glass of water or the like.
Just a thought but…. if you’ve got kids in school like me, couldn’t we all just have a bottle of mineral water in the fridge and dip the test swab/probe/thing in that every day and post that back to the wankers?
I know there’s a high risk of it still being positive lol but it’s one way of not playing along rather than removing your kids from school altogether.
I suspect that will happen quite a lot, also people will use mouth wash and nasal sprays to ensure a negative result. Altogether the idea of parents self testing children seems likely to break down into farce quite quickly.
They have been doing a lot of LFT at my daughter’s boarding school. They do a throat swab only luckily. She gargles with Listerine in the car before we do the test. Ha!
How about you package it up and send it back to Boris.
Return to sender. It will be very depressing for them to see the mountain of returned mail.
The kids will be asked to bring in a pot of spit. Presumably, this is used for the lateral slow tests. It’s not compulsory to bring in a pot for testing.
Posted this late last night from the UK Government’s response to the “After the vaccine roll-out to high risk groups, remove ALL covid-19 restrictions” petition (with my emphasis):
“In addition, there is currently limited evidence to support the use of COVID-19 vaccines to interrupt transmission during outbreaks. While Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines provide protection to a vaccinated person from serious disease, we do not yet know if they prevent them from passing on the virus to others. The full impact on transmission will not become clear until a large number of people have been vaccinated, but as larger numbers do get vaccinated, we will hopefully move further along the path back to a more normal way of life. We will continue to closely monitor the impact of vaccinations on individuals, on NHS pressures and on the spread of the virus.”
Speaks for itself.
Translation: We need to run this experiment on everybody, before we know it works.
It’s a straight admission in black and white that this is a trial. The other key takeaway for me is that this can be used as a cast iron rebuttal of anyone who uses the “get vaccinated to protect others” argument. This is a matter for each individual to decide, plain and simple.
Exactly. Language is important. How dumb can people be not to see this.
If nobody gets seriously ill from the disease (because vaccine) why do we care if they pass it on to others.
If you’re scared of the virus, go get vaccinated and then stay out of the way until the potion takes effect. Then you’re not in the way of the rest of us going about our lawful business.
We need to keep the door open for more and varied therapies and possible lockdowns
‘Get “vaccinated” with a product that does not confer immunity, has potentially serious side effects including death, and continue to have to follow all the coronavirus rules,’ says the government. Millions rush to be injected.
Hopeless cases the lot of them. Perhaps the great depopulator Bill Gates was right after all.
“He used to put up a lot of stuff that can get you instantly banned on the internet because algorithms don’t distinguish between supposed intent. So putting up loads of 3R imagery with related slogans was putting this site in jeopardy. Maybe the site administrator told JH to desist because he/she is no longer putting up the imagery and slogans. So “solid”? No.”
OKOK what is this garbage exactly???
Never once have I put up whatever it is you are referring to???
I made a statement about circumstances where I would potentially accept a vaccine and now I have this paranoia thrown at me???
I wouldn’t worry about that sort of person. I agree with you, if it is a choice between earning money and not, I have to choose earning money as I have a young family. This is why I am so angry about this whole vaccine charade – I am being forced into a course of action I know is wrong. I think the best thing to do is to hold fire as long as possible and hope that a vaccine comes along that isn’t mRNA based, even if it means buying it yourself and getting it delivered privately. The worst thing for me about all of that though, past the removal of my choice, is that the vaccine is the thin end of the wedge and will lead, ultimately, to some version of a social credit system.
That’s my plan. I will be putting up a case to my employer and holding out to the very last minute. However, I can see me having to relent and take the vaccine if the choice is binary between working to live or not working.
No case required, yet. Step one is tto not discuss it as its personal. They’ll have to pursue legal advice.
You say you need to earn money for your young family – understandable. What will you say when they come to vaxx your children so they can get an education/play out whatever. It very much is the thin end of the wedge . All dissenters need to stand firm in refusing the agenda – and I mean grannies like me and folks without kids too, we all need to support each other in this NOW or it will be too late. Holidays abroad, concerts etc are not worth it. Sorry but that is the plain choice.
Will you come and feed my child, Barbara? If employers everywhere require vaccines and I don’t have one, I will need you to. It is all well and good talking about ‘standing firm’ when you don’t have any dependents.

How Deadly is Covid 19?
Things appear to be returning to normal in Nigeria
I have had fourteen unsolicited phone calls in the past 24 hours
Eight calls were from Amazon telling me that my account had either been suspended or reinstated. I don’t remember purchasing a warrior like woman and I definatly would not have paid by installments
Four were from PayPal saying very much the same. As I pay for everything with hazelnuts gathered from the hedgerows I don’t have a PayPal account
Two calls offered me a tax rebate. Since leaving prison I have been living under an assumed name in a sheep pen on the Brecon Beacons. How did they find me?
Think I might take them up on the tax one. Nothing to lose
A new variant of Branch Covidians has been spotted by A K Haart:
The Covid Witnesses-
The Covid Witness movement appears to be growing with little groups of Coves as they are called knocking on doors with their leaflets in a search for new converts. The main plank of their movement is what Covid Witnesses call their PCR Test or simply the Test. There are three mantras within the Test.
Praise the sacred calling of Epidemiology
Cover the face in the presence of Covid
Report your neighbours
The Third Mantra of the Covid Witnesses probably requires some elaboration. Covid Witnesses are not suggesting that believers should necessarily spy on their neighbours full time. What they do suggest is that they should report neighbours who seem to be the type of people who would violate the first two Mantras of the PCR. Covid Witnesses call it their version of the precautionary principle.
All very interesting and a sign of the times perhaps. However it remains to be seen if this new movement flourishes in the longer term. Does it offer enough spiritual sustenance? This is the real test of any such movement.
It is not known if Boris Johnson is a convert or not, but even if he is a devout Covid Witness, his epiphany may turn out to be temporary. With Boris they usually are.
Good illustration of economic cost of LD

Reads like largest GDP countries are first in line for the great reset
The problem with this point in relation to the costs of the covid panic response is that most people more or less automatically tune it out, instantly.
Firstly, it’s money and of course “you can’t balance money against lives”! Second it’s debt, and “everyone knows” debt is irrelevant – just a matter of shaking a branch on the magic money tree.
It’s especially absurd in the UK, where this approach has been adopted and proselytised by a supposedly “Conservative” regime. One of the core aspects of conservatism has always been a preference for avoiding debt, especially state debt, or at any rate giving lip-service to doing so by requiring at least some attempt to be made to justify it as necessary investment and give an idea about how it is to be repaid.
The obvious answer is, of course, that the “Conservative” Party is no longer meaningfully conservative -something pointed out by some people for many years here. In Peter Hitchens’ case. he has written books about it a decade and more ago.
I have never met anyone who thinks debt is “irrelevant” – and I cannot imagine anyone would: debt has to be repaid.
To whom does a country owe its debt to though? And what position in the relationship with the creditor is implied by the debt?
In our case it’s not real debt;it’s new money conjured by a press of a button.
Bond holders in theory. Then, when times are good, the government will theoretically buy them back to retain a balance of GDP to debt ratio.
Clearly Johnson effectively thinks debt (or fiat money conjured up in excess of income) is irrelevant, as do the entire cabinet (apart from those who realise the truth but choose to keep quiet). They have been incurring it at unprecedented rates without having even bothered to check if doing so made any sense.
Presumably the expectation is that debts will at some point be “forgiven”, or wiped out by government fiat or subsidy.
Or possibly by the introduction of a new, probably digital, currency, to run alongside (a reduced) money-supply.
That, of course, would be one way out of it, that some advocate. (Not that I’m saying it would itself be cost-free or even a good idea at all, far from it.)
It appears that you “know” that debt is “irrelevant” but it isn’t: it is wealth borrowed from the future. It cannot be forgiven or wiped out.
I think you misinterpreted my original comment.
The suggestion that ““everyone knows” debt is irrelevant” was intended as ironic criticism of the literally stupid but widespread opinion to that effect.
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/564347
Just look at our great and glorious leaders’ reply to the above petition. What did we do to deserve this?
Bloody ‘road map’, why can’t they just talk normally
They use figurative language to mislead and deceive.
It is complete bollocks. The latest buzz phrase we will look at the data not the date. Well in that case Bunter, why wait until Monday to announce your plans. Get out today and announce the schools are to be fully open Monday.
Why take another 2 weeks off our children? There is certainly no data to justify this.
This implies that the government know that the so called vaccines do not work. If they worked, the vaccinated could safely mix with anyone, including people who were clearly infected and obviously infectious. A vaccine confers immunity.
People are moving out of London and buying houses in the provinces
People in the provinces are selling up and moving to Tanzania
“SAGE scientists have been “crying out” for politicians to determine the acceptable level of Covid risk so it is clear when the crisis is deemed over”.
I dare say there will be quite a few politicians who are arguing the opposite. Why not reach out – or better still just get in touch!
Buck passing. Can’t wait to see the politicians throw SAGE under the bus, and then SAGE throw the politicians under the bus. No-one can accept blame for this shitshow.
Blame it on the 84 year olds, after all we would not be in this mess if they hadn’t caught it and died

The real problem.
As confirmed by the first ATL comments today.
Hospital Acquired Infections:
Singapore got its Nosocomial infection rate down to statistical zero in March last year by treating Covid as a contact transferred infection- the same as Norovirus or Polio – primary transfer vector is oro-foecal, which is why the Chinese do anal swabs and Covid is detected in sewage plant sampling.
However to do the same here would mean abandoning all the superstition associated with aerosol transfer and treating it as seriously as Singapores hospitals i.e. all the socialist distancing, muzzle wearing etc is a complete distraction from the actual transfer method, which is only controlled by rabid attention to hand hygeine.
There is a good article about it here.
Worth reading in full:
https://market-ticker.org/cgi-ticker/akcs-www?post=239747&page=1
His Covid articles are excellent. He has been excellent for years on markets and politics though
I always thought the primary vector of transmission in hospitality is not pubs but coffee shops as their toilets are a single cubicle opened by a handle.
I wouldn’t worry.Pubs are the target because they are a centre for social interaction.
Anything that supports our traditions and social gatherings/events is being strangulated. Our identity is fast being erased. People can choose to believe it or not, but this is one of the goals set out by the DAVOS elite.
especially the micro pubs in Kent
Thanks. I’ve been thinking for some time that this fixation on PPE as a solution is a red herring, and is distracting from other infection control protocols.
Current HAIs and care home infections remain high vs last spring when there a lack of PPE.
Recording of yesterday’s livestream from the Berlin Coronavirus Committee. Four hours with interesting speakers, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. :
https://youtu.be/u-9mIzS-Gq0?t=102
The email from our secondary school says participation in the mass testing is not compulsory.
It’s not mandatory in the college I work in.
“And isn’t the risk of false positives increased if the tests are being administered by people with no training or medical qualifications?”
No
As someone who developed lateral flow tests for STIs, including pregnancy(!), I can tell you that the ability of someone to discern a particular result is highly dependent on whether or not they want a particular result. A person who’s been trying for a baby for years will read a very faint result on a pregnancy test differently to a 15 year old after her first intercourse. It’s why electronic readers were developed for pregnancy tests
Since most parents will want their child to attend school it’s likely they will under read, not over read tests potentially resulting in false negatives. And that’s if they get the sampling and test operation correct.
Point about the sampling.
Many years ago, home use Group A streptococcus tests were launched but then withdrawn after pressure from the FDA and Health Canada because of concerns over triggering of potentially fatal epiglottic spasm by heavy handed and incorrect use of a throat swab. The government is asking millions of untrained users to take throat swabs and maybe nasopharyngeal swabs from children. Really not a good idea.
Final point
Most tests don’t have sample controls e.g. you could dip the swab in water and run it and the test would likely give a “valid” i.e. control line appears “negative” result
Forcing parents to test their children twice a week is a really bad idea on many levels
Easing out of lockdown back into lockdown before the pubs have had a chance to open. Who would have thought it?
If they can con poor people to part with money to watch smug opinionated millionaires play football then they can get way with anything
WELL SAID!
Please everyone copy on video on your phone the bit from Reiner’s whistleblower yesterday showing dementia patients being held down and forcibly jabbed. 31 residents,8 died, 11 more seriously ill. The more people you show, the more we will win. Yesterday some said it was in German so didn’t bother but the restraining does not need words. It’s disgusting but, if it gets round, the jabbers are finished!

Very good.
The cover of the Spectator reads ‘Power jab’
Dear Spectator, Fuck off and die
It’s gone right down the toilet. It’s only a handful of writers keep me reading anything there. Lionel Shriver has been excellent though.
They’ve been trying to appeal to a younger, female audience, and their editorial line is increasingly wet. Well, at least they’re at record subs numbers – selling out works.
Yes, they’re claiming record circulation numbers of late. Which must prove something.
I started getting it last May as it was more sceptical than my usual news intake (The Times and the FT, both of which have been utterly abysmal).
So I suppose I am the demographic they are looking for (under 50, female).
But I am disappointed by a lot of the articles in recent months.
Couldn’t have expressed my antipathy to the dreadful rag any better myself.
I cancelled my subscription last month.

Lysine. Interesting.
But will probably be diffamated rather than investigated properly, to be able to proceed with the
profitable genocide.
Lysine is a well known virus killer – very effective for cold sores, shingles, chicken pox etc
Been having an e-mail chat with a friend (same age as me and lives opposite side of same county)yesterday and he told me this:
“That’s a coincidence.
I too received a call from a no caller ID today (our call was the GP’s number and they introduced themselves)– Offering me the vaccination.
I told the caller “ no thank you, I self heal and self medicate. If you look at my records, I declined Chemotherapy for cancer, so I would never accept a vaccine” (off the record at the time his cancer specialist told him that he would have made exactly the same decision as he would not take chemotherapy either)
To which she says, “ I will put you on the declined the vaccine list then” !!
I think we may be the last unaltered humans on the planet! I might be able to sell my blood soon as there will be very little of our DNA form available. As soon as this lockdown is lifted, we should grab a well deserved beer or 5 ”
Looking forward to the last bit.
But if us young 50ish are getting calls they are eitehr way ahead of target or need to use lots up due to no-shows.
If you look at the more wilder stuff coming out of the WEF they see a future where humanity merges with machines to create a new race.
But Schwab is in his 80;s he will have to be cryogenically frozen to get the benefits in the ‘future’
I had a similar call. Asked me ID security Qs but I could not reciprocate. I said I may rethink when the jab companies are legally liable for any side effects. Their exemption was news to the nice lady at the other end.
I too declined chemo after an op. My surgeon was not surprised.
It is very clear now that the UK is Covid HQ and is a primary driving force behind all this deranged nonsense. Mass non-compliance has to be the way ahead, because unfortunately this government is batting for another team, and it isn’t the UK.
Reclaim your stolen property – your liberty.
So, in my daughter’s A-level year (except there won’t be any exams cos, you know, everyone will die in the exam hall if they take them), she won’t be able to attend school unless I consent to intrusive, pointless tests at school, and actually administer them myself at home.
I hate every single arm of the State and would rejoice in the death of the scum who staff it.
Of course there will be no way around this, like every member of the family taking the “test” until you hit negative. I assume other work arounds will be available.
That’s really only to play their game. We must stop playing the game altogether, throw the game board at the wall and refuse to do the tests, provide results, and say no, not today, not net week. NO TESTING!
I’m not complying, and I’m not pretending to comply. It’s why I won’t get a lanyard, I regard that as playing the game.
Exactly, I wear a lanyard but feel like I’m wearing a yellow star of David.
I understand that Morrisons tried to make normal people (who don’t wear masks) to wear a yellow label. Isn’t anybody in Morrisons old or educated enough to know that Jews had to wear a yellow star to identify them. I cannot see the difference between a yellow label in Morrison, a lanyard or a yellow star of David.
TBH the yellow star would be a potent symbol of defiance at this point
Never underestimate the power of optics
Exactly.
Too late to edit now, but it’s appropriate to the rage I feel.
No need to edit Jo, I feel exactly the same rage and have wished death on those responsible many a time. I don’t have school age children nor a job that I am afraid to lose if I don’t take the poison, but I do care about the future and our freedoms.
Am I being a tool in thinking this is self testing or will you need to provide evidence?
Not compulsory.
I’m assuming that LFT since it uses a swab up the nose etc will work on house plants and diverse other surfaces. Admittedly there may be awkward questions if the cat returns a false positive.
Fuck testing them, open the thing up wave it in the air and put it back in the tube or whatever.
That’s certainly what I’d do. But make sure to prime your kids against the questions which the teachers will inevitably ask about exactly how you administered the test- like the East German teachers who found out which households were watching West German TV by asking the children about the stories they heard on the previous evening’s news bulletins. And then grassed them up to the Stasi.
you took the very words out of my mouth. see you on the barricades.
Exactly a year ago Whitty and his best buddy Vallance wrote a short letter to Nature about the emerging coronavirus epidemic.
18 February 2020
Coronavirus: global solutions to prevent a pandemic
Charlotte H. Watts, Patrick Vallance & Christopher J. M. Whitty
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-00457-y
The first paragraph says :
Investment in research must be fast-tracked if we are to tackle the new coronavirus disease, COVID-19. We need greater insight into the transmission, progression and epidemiology of this respiratory illness. We need to know the risk factors for infection, the role of asymptomatic or mild infection and the nature of ‘super-spreaders’. We must determine disease seasonality and the viability of the virus in hot, humid environments, and improve estimates of death rates by age.
I have highlighted those sentences wihich are basically project objectives , and now , a year and £500 billion pounds later what results have Whitty and Vallance come up with . How do we assign an annual performance assessment on them?
Risk factors for Infection: Hospitals account for 40% of cases , care homes for 20% , and that about it for risk factors .
Role of asymptomatic infection: Don’t know
Nature of super-spreaders: Don’t know
Seasonality : We (ie we govt scientists) have dismissed that as a factor , despite decades of papers discussing it for flu , often called “seasonal flu” – the clue is in the name, unless you are employed by Imperial College.
Estimates of death rate by age: We have the information but you will have to work hard to find it and we don’t actually know whether death is by or with covid (actually we do but are not going to tell you)
Is my assessment a bit unfair , I would rate them as 2/10 after 1 year of unfetterred power and 500 billion pounds of public money . Given that Whitty is “the greatest living British scientist” that does not speak highly of British science.
2/10 is highly generous. The two of them are out and out rogues and like their political masters they are implicated in the mass murder of many thousands of our fellow citizens.
Don’t forget this one that NO-ONE in the MSM will publish including Toby and Will:
CMO Chris Whitty on the 21st July 2020:
“If you look at the R, and the behaviours, quite a lot of the change that led to the R going below one occurred well before, or to some extent before, the 23rd, when the full lockdown started.”
Here is a link to a video I had made for me by parliamentlivetv of the relevant section of the health and social care committee hearing:
https://1drv.ms/v/s!Agv7JEO8MngCiSmT-rY5ChSI9LV-
And what about this rather prophetic and totally unannounced and unpublicised release of a statement on the 30th January 2020 by the 4 Chief Medical Officers of England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. It stated:
“the 4 UK Chief Medical Officers consider it prudent for our governments to escalate planning and preparation in case of a more widespread outbreak.
For that reason, we are advising an increase of the UK risk level from low to moderate. This does not mean we think the risk to individuals in the UK has changed at this stage, but that government should plan for all eventualities.””
This is the “serious and imminent threat statement” required by the Government so that they could introduce the very first piece of “coronavirus” legislation. It was introduced at 2.30 pm on the 10th February 2020 without Parliamentary oversight or debate and is now revoked. This was The Health Protection (Coronavirus) Regulations 2020 Statutory Instrument and it was subsequently amended on the 25th February 2020.
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2020/129/made
This statement was made 11 days before the piece of legislation it was required for was written and laid before Parliament and came into force the very same afternoon.
How did the 4 CMOs know 11 days in advance of a Statutory Instrument being written that “medical advice” would be required?
Why was this “advice” basically hidden on a webpage on a different department’s section and not on the DHSC webpages and why was it not linked to the Serious and Imminent Threat Declaration?
As this was part of a FOI request answer then either the above is the only advice given by the CMOs or the DHSC have withheld more detailed advice.
Again, NO-ONE in the MSM will even mention this piece of legislation including Toby and Will.
They keep going on about the elgislation that came into force on March 26th 2020 but never mention the legislation from February 2020.
Why not? I cannot get an answer from anyone.
The cognitive dissonance required to believe this “lockdown” has caused any fall in infections has to be the most extreme such example of the whole “pandemic”. The peak of deaths was on the 19th of January you twats!!!
Bits from an email from our school about self testing…
“Students will then bring their test kit and labels home from school the day before their first test as well as a leaflet giving step by step instructions. They will be given enough sample pots and labels for eight weeks of testing. It is important that your child takes the test when they wake up – before they have anything to eat or drink and before they brush their teeth.
Once the sample has been labelled and bagged, your child will need to bring it to school with them and put it into the collection box at the entrance as they go into the building. The tests will be collected and taken to the test centre on the same day. Test results will be returned in the next 24-48 hours and you will receive a text message telling you the result of your child’s test…..
…Whilst this testing is not compulsory, we would urge all of you to take part.“
This was sent end of Jan.
F×CK EM!!
Living on a constant knife edge. Chat at school consumed by Covid test results. This is sick
Everyone should either
– sabotage it
– refuse to take part/throw it in the bin
– send them back to Downing St 10 to produce waste/hassle.
That’s how civil disobedience works and how the whole thing can be ended by the public if it wishes to end it.
They opened a door for it hereby.
Sabotage might still lead to positive result – best not to do it
Stick the swab in a dog turd & send it back see what they make of that.
They will be panicking about a new strain that shares genetic similarities with Pedigree Chum, terrifying!
Collection box?
No chance for cross-contamination there!
What a joke.
That’s probably the whole point of these boxes….
Tap water is free.
So they have known about this since end of Jan? So presumably if it is not mandatory if we refuse to consent, the kids can still attend school?
god, I would so be home-schooling now if I had children that age. the state has amply demonstrated it has zero interest in your child’s education, and I think the only reason they are talking about re-opening the schools is so as to harvest these tests that will keep the lie going – and in due course, the vaccine. I wouldn’t let my kids anywhere near these places
They have not done any of this to protect the elderly, but to kill them. They have not done any of this to harm the young but to stoke hatred from the young towards the “boomers”.
Have you ever wondered how they ended up being called boomers? This idea of a baby boom after the second world war is such a lie. My Grandfather was one of eleven back in the early 1900’s. There was no baby boom after the second world war, but it was the first generation who were allowed to live and didn’t get sent to war.
These labels need to be scrutinised and rejected. Over and over the MSM write the narrative and we end up parroting it.
Another example is the Karen meme – these are middle aged white women. This is an anti-white racist meme, designed to silence the last vocal group of whites. Very few white men in that age bracket dare speak. I’m not saying that there aren’t busy bodies around, but this meme is pure racism, and we should be careful not to use such easy throw-away labels to dismiss people.
I disagree with practically everything you say here.
The boomers and the millennials are driving this authoritarian destruction.
Millennial Karens are indeed the most patronizing and biggest cheerleaders of it.
Individualistic, pragmatic, liberty loving Xers and Silents are either resisting, or helplessly standing by, or have to enforce it or bought into it, while Zs don’t/can’t care yet or are already too de-induvidualised- none of them are the real drivers though.
Read ‘The fourth turning’ before you thin-slice the generations so erroneously in that or any other regards.
I object too infantile labels & name-calling “boomers” & “millennials” straight out of Marxist ideology LOL @ lefties.
Those are standard terms to depict the different generations, nothing else.
Standard terms provided by our enemy! You didn’t make them up, they are provided for you. Stop falling for their lies – every generation has a mixture of behaviours and thinking.
What’s it like down there in the government’s trap? Or are we talking to 77th Brigade?
“There was no baby boom after the second world war, but it was the first generation who were allowed to live and didn’t get sent to war.” – Thank you for this most amazing insight. I never thought of the war casualties this way before.
Is it possible for the 77th to register for this site and then downtick comments in order to suppress them without ever posting anything themselves?
I have no objection to being downticked

I got a reply from the BBC, I’ll only share the first couple of lines, because they are amusing [emphasis added]:
“Thank you for contacting us regarding the Panorama programme, Vaccines: The Disinformation War, first broadcast on Monday 15th February.
To allow us to reply promptly, and to ensure we use our licence fee resources as efficiently as possible, we’re sending this response to everyone. We’re sorry we can’t reply individually, but we hope this will address most of the points you raised.”

“The strict lockdown in the UK was so effective that it stopped the spread of Covid in Sweden as well”
I thought some of you might like to see how credible the suggested 1,000 a day positive test results before easing lockdown was. Here is the data showing the assumed FPR of 0.8%, what 1000 cases a day and what the actual cases per day have looked like.
1,000 a day, given the number of tests being carried out is a tall order, a target that’s never meant to be hit?
Henegen called it in May. We will never be free of lockdown because of a statistical anomoly
Yes, 1,000 a day would be about a quarter of the current assumed FPR of 0.8%.
In Greece, a country with a fraction of the UK’s population and which has never been as badly hit by Covid (assuming of course that its statistics and UK statistics are correct) they still struggle to get less than 1,000 cases a day.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/greece/
“a target that’s never meant to be hit?”
I think you’ve hit on the head, Nick.
I’m going to share this bit about breadcrumbing by Narcissists again. Very helpful – this is just what the government are doing. The BIT know what this does to people – they are the experts. So this is surely not being done in error?
“Breadcrumbing by a narcissist is to throw you a little glimpse of hope, to keep you interested in them, often just as you’ve had enough they’ll throw you just enough crumbs that requires as little effort as possible on their part to give you the feeling that this time it will all work out ok, to stop you walking away, because they still have a need for you, not because the narcissist cares for you.Breadcrumbing is the narcissist’s way of sending you false signals of hope, irregular messages to keep you intrigued and thinking if you hold on just a little bit longer, it will all be ok after all the narcissist told you it would all be ok, that they would never hurt you, lie to you, not to worry and everything will be fine, and they care about you right? Wrong, they lack the empathy to care. However, our trust within their gaslighting words leads us to lose our faith within our instincts.
With a narcissist’s things are not as straight forward as they promise something, don’t deliver, we see them for who they are, and we walk, that would be too easy, with a narcissist, they love bomb, idealise, devalue, intimidate and isolate, so we become confused as to whether they’re our hero or our worst nightmare, however, because they promise us something, then don’t deliver. Yet, within that none delivery, they either blame us for why they didn’t, ”if only you hadn’t.” and as we hold ourselves accountable, we question ourselves and not them, or they make us feel guilty for bringing a broken promise up. They come at us with things such as “It’s not all about you, why are you so selfish? After all, I’ve done for you.” We begin to question ourselves more than we do them. Yet, just as we have finally had enough of false promises and lies, they bring on their admiration face, and play nice, offering us those crumbs of hope, that if we just hold on a little longer, for it to cycle back around again.”
The writer acknowledges that she’s a bit dyslexic, but I think she makes absolutely brilliant points. Link: https://wasitme.blog/2020/11/05/the-narcissists-bread-crumbing/

Similar one about brainwashing techniques in German.
The real problem for us is: it will take decades to treat and unwash them.
What we should all realise this is year zero. For the past year the government as been preparing us for where nobody will be allowed to get covid to do so would mean lockdown. At the moment vaccines are being used to protect the most vulnerable but if infections once again increase it’s lockdown. While the rate of infections in adults is decreasing the government seems hell bent on finding infections in children to justify continuing with some sort of lockdown. This is madness as it means there’s no end in sight and we must all wake up and tell everyone this is not temporary it is permanent. As well as not cooperating we should counter the scaremongering by pointing out for anyone under 60 without any health problems you have 99% chance of survival. Or last year 1700 people died in car accidents while less than 400 under 60 year olds without health problems died of covid. In other words your risk of death from driving a car is four times greater than covid. Risk is part of life when people understand that we will stop living in fear and once again be free.

An infantalised nation depending on the government to give them ‘rules’ to ‘stay safe’ and get through each day, weaponised health care which coincidentally is a money spinner for the few, what could go wrong

Or even worse those numpties who can’t spell and say “aloud”, that really get’s my goat. There is definitely an inverse relationship between intelligence and the level of Covidianism.

Aloud to do what …….

Time to ditch your smart phone NHS Covid tracing app ‘has looked at adding vaccination status onto its software’ amid calls for PM to bring in passports to help open clubs, cinemas and theatres
The Track and Trace infrastructure was always going to be permanent. The £22bn is a sunk cost now
Imagine getting pinged in the middle of a Tesco aisle for standing next to a refusenik?
With 5g the police could be alerted & there to detain the dirty refuseniks within minutes & put them on a train to nowhere!
It gets more sinister every day. This wasn’t technologically possible even 5yrs ago.
Is that what HS2 is for? Transportation to the camp outside Birmingham.
At least it’s outside Birmingham, could be worse, in Birmingham.
Then I’ll pass on clubs, theatres and cinemas.

I am absolutely gutted to learn of the Lamb and Flag closing. I was up (Worcester College) many years ago (we won’t say how long) and spent many a wonderful time with both friends and family in the Lamb and Flag having a pint of Courage or a meal. The food was very good as well, especially Sunday lunches. The staff were always friendly and it was fun knowing that drinking scenes from Morris were filmed there on occasion. Places like this were much more than ‘watering holes’, they were warm, significant cultural and historical places where you could rest from the outside world and enjoy the company of others.
I think that was a pub I had lunch in on a visit to Oxford some years ago. Sadly there will be many others following its demise.
Two great articles in German on Achgut today. One debunking the 10 life years lost per Covid victim calculations, the other one providing more details on the dangers of the so called ‘vaccines’.
One eloquent passage:
Um solche Wirkungen (ADE etc.) auszuschließen, muss man bei der Impfstoffentwicklung 18 Monate lang geimpfte Tiere beobachten, danach 2 Jahre lang eine kleine Gruppe menschlicher Impflinge. Beide Phasen wurden bei den SARS-CoV-2-Impfstoffen übersprungen, weshalb es auch keine Impfstoffe, sondern lediglich immunogene Substanzen sind. Daher haben sie auch keine reguläre Zulassung, sondern Not- oder Sonderzulassungen erhalten. Eine kollektive Verantwortungslosigkeit, die wir nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg bei westlichen Zulassungsbehörden noch nicht erlebt haben.
A never seen collective irresponsibilty to emergency approve these immonu-genetic substances in light of them skipping entirely the normally neccessary 18month/2year animal/human trials to exclude ADE&co.
You heard about a booster shot in Autumn from BJ now BG has gone one further. A third shot needed because variants
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-vaccine-variants-third-shot-bill-gates/
Will it stop at 3 though, once you get into big money its addictive
The frequency of these shots is only restricted by supply.
It can’t be about money.
A) Soon it will be worthless.
B) The deliberate destruction means less/none of it for everyone at some point, even for Bezos, Musk, a teacher or a heart surgeon.
That’s the conundrum, if no one has money, how do the rich get richer
I think it’s about power, not money.
Money is just a medium used to keep score and this can be changed to whatever – land holdings, slaves, serfs, gold, silver, precious metals and rare earths etc. whenever is required and a new medium of exchange is required.
They don’t need more money, how can you spend a hundred billion? They want power & control.
Cybernetics.
Technocrats are way beyond money. It’s about resources, power and control. They are also way beyond politics and politicians will not be needed in their Brave New World. BJ and his muckers should take note. ‘It’s a big club and they ain’t in it’ (either). MW
Its not really about money its about power over the masses.
Look how many updates MS Windows needs there is your answer.
You’ll become just another device like your laptop, tablet, TV, mobile devices. Scary thought eh?
And that’s before Covid 21, 22, 23ff and the 3 shots for each one of them…
Everyone with an IQ above 50 could see what’s (not) happening, once we let them open that door without an exit strategy.

This is a brilliant but very sad article on why we will never be able to get back to ‘normal’ even if we could or were allowed to.
It fits in with today’s Mercola one about the collective psychosis of 98% of people:
How can the few non-psychotic ones ever forgive them, live with and treat them as before?
This would require an external event/enemy allowing people to deny and suppress what’s happened for many decades, similar to Germans collective experience post 1945 to 1989.
Well, given the only way we will get through this is in exposing Gates et al, HE would be the external enemy.
That article is bullshit. Acts as if the virus is a threat. It isn’t: it’s a fucking fraud. What a CUNT article.
Will education be segregated, dependent on getting tested and having the app. Segregation, that’s something I never expected to hear in the UK
No Irish, No Blacks, No Unvaccinated.
Sounds appealing. Keep me away from those genetically modified morons.
This was a news release a few days ago. Also another company called Deepverge (Ticker DVRG) have developed a breath test device using the Avacta affimer where you simply blow into an handheld device containing a chip that captures any virus. Then you take these chips to a test centre where they give you the results immediately. Apparently The hand held device will cost you about £40 and the chips will be about £6 for a pack of 5. Results are then sent to your phone using blockchain technology and QR codes. This could be the way of of the testing cycle.

(“Avacta” or “the Group” or “the Company”)
Results of Initial Evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 Lateral Flow Antigen Test with Clinical Samples
Avacta Group plc (AIM: AVCT), the developer of Affimer(R) biotherapeutics and reagents, announces that it has received the first data for its SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen test from ongoing clinical studies in Europe and the UK. These data show excellent performance of the test in identifying patients with an infectious viral load and no false positive results.
Avacta’s SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen test has been developed to identify infectious individuals so that they can isolate promptly and reduce the spread of COVID-19. A recent report from the Liverpool Covid SMART Pilot Study(1) indicates that individuals with COVID-19 infection had a significant chance of infecting their contacts if they had a viral load measured by PCR, called the Ct value (cycle threshold value), of approximately 25 or lower. The Ct value indicates how many PCR cycles are required to amplify the viral RNA so that it can be detected and a lower Ct value indicates a higher viral load.
The initial evaluation of Avacta’s lateral flow rapid antigen test with clinical samples has been carried out at two sites, one in EU and one in the UK using patient samples with viral loads confirmed by PCR. 30 positive samples were tested with Ct values of 26 and below, with half of those in the range 22-26, and the lateral flow test identified 29/30 of these correctly as positive. This indicates a clinical sensitivity of 96.7% for samples with a Ct value below 26. Importantly, out of a total of 26 negative samples tested with the lateral flow device, the test correctly identified all 26 as negative, giving a clinical specificity of 100%. High specificity is critical for a lateral flow test for mass screening so that large numbers of false positives are not generated which would create a major burden on follow-on testing resources, and result in a significant socio-economic cost of unnecessarily isolating people.
OK OK, yeah I don’t like the narrative either, just showing people tests are being developed.
Here’s an interesting article:

Thanks. Great article
Their plan is falling apart before it starts Vaccine passports branded ‘unworkable’ to help save struggling pubs and clubs because drinkers in their 20s won’t get their jabs until too late in the year
Why in Christ’s name would anyone in their 20s get the jab?
So they can get a vaccination passport.
Cause they are thick. So they can on holiday. Social media likes. Work mandate (not there just yet).
Is there something in the milk Allergy to cow’s milk is the most common cause of fatal reactions in children and is ‘increasingly’ affecting adults, study showsThis is why I don’t trust THE science any more, I don’t believe it, I really don’t.
Just another nudge to push being vegan.
Cow’s milk is disgusting. It is meant for calves. Would you go putting human breast milk in your cereal?
Cows milk is yummy & an excellent source of vitamin B & D. I don’t recall what human milk tastes like so can’t say.
Spinach gives you more vitamin B without the disgusting mucus. Salmon and some meats give you far more.

Yes I agree but there are so many articles where there is an underlying prose of animal produce bad v plant good.
it is the LCT gene and whether you have it or not . This gene allows the small intestine to break down lactose. In the absence of the gene then lactose is not broken down and adverse effects occur. 65% of the world’s population do not have the gene. The 35 % that do have the gene includes most europeans.. Hence milk drinking is common in this country.
However my daughter as a baby had an intolerance to dairy and so we got our no dairy baby formula on prescription …. which was good.
In the ABL article by a senior nurse said this:
“These two issues of isolation and hospital hygiene are extremely relevant to the Covid situation today. The importance of isolating contagious patients was Suggested by Jefferson and Henegan but apparently this suggestion has been ignored by Government planners. And it is hard to see why Nightingale hospitals and some imagination with staffing were not used for this purpose.”
Why did the National Hell Service not follow a diffrent approach back in February 2020 to stop the Rona ripping through all its hospitals by trying to isolate covid victims and try to segragate the infected physically?
They didn’t do anything that would actually help stop the spread of Rona because:
THEY WANTED TO SELL BILLIONS OF FACE NAPPIES AND OTHER PPE.
People who had a companys dealing in PPE said this would stop the Rona and the arrogant corrupt lying scumbags implemented PPE as THE protection policy.
We knew face naps were worse than useless but the psychopaths had the sales of face naps and blue gloves to drive through the roof.
They also had the other incentive of killing as many people as possible to drive The Corona Project.
BASTARDS.
Corona is the ultimate racket.
They are making so much from the tests and PPE that it’s too big to cure.
Geez! I can’t believe I agree with David Aaronovitch’s piece (well the portion that’s on the lockdown sceptics site, I can’t read the Times article).
I agree with him that ALL restrictions and tracking apps etc need to go and it must be explicit that vaccines must be voluntary!
From my employer:
”COVID 19 Vaccination Myths
Myth #1: The speed of development means the vaccine may be unsafe.
Fact: Many sceptics have noted how quickly the vaccine has been developed but this is just a reflection of the extraordinary scientific advances that have been made in vaccine technology. Along with this the development of the vaccine has been backed with significant funding which has allowed for record breaking development and almost 24 hour working getting this vaccine tested and approved.
Myth #2: I have already had Covid-19 and hence do not need the vaccine.
Fact: Due to the severe health risks associated with the illness, the fact that reinfection with Covid-19 is possible means the advice is to be vaccinated again. Research published today by Public Health England (PHE) in the Siren report shows that antibodies from past infections provide 83% protection for at least five months but does not stop you from passing the virus on to others. No one is clear how long our natural immunity will last and it is unclear if a previous infection to Covid-19 will protect against new mutations. In addition, it has been suggested that having a Covid-19 vaccine after having a confirmed infection (at least 28 days after diagnosis) may boost your immune response further (i.e., like having a second jab to prime your immunity).
Myth #3: Covid-19 vaccines have severe side effects.
Fact: As with all vaccines, there are expected short-term reactions and both the Pfizer/BioNTech and Oxford/Astra Zeneca jab are no exceptions. Patients may develop a headache, fatigue, muscle pain or a low grade fever.
Myth #4: You can stop wearing a mask after being vaccinated.
Fact: You are not bullet proof after being vaccinated and can still pass on the virus to others. Unless you have a medical reason for not wearing a mask, it is mandatory to wear one at all times when not at your desk whilst at work. Along with this remember Hands, Face and Space at all times.
Myth #5: Our immune systems are better than vaccines.
Fact: Our immune system is amazing at preventing disease but it needs to be primed so it can respond quicker. Although the vast majority of individuals recover without any long term ill health, a significant number of people will require hospital admission and unfortunately die from the virus. Prevention is better than cure and vaccinations will help reduce the spread of the virus.
Myth #6: Covid-19 vaccines were developed to control the population through microchip tracking in the human brain using ‘nanotransducers’.
Fact: The only device tracking you is your mobile phone! Likewise, false information has spiralled from conspiracy theorist and although technology has moved on, there is no GPS tracker in the vaccine vials. If you believe that this is some ploy to gain control of our minds you probably also believe the earth is flat and the Loch Ness monster is alive and well!
Myth #7: Covid-19 vaccinations will cause infertility in men and women.
Fact: This is not proven and NHS England has supported by stating there is no evidence to suggest the vaccine will cause any issues with fertility. The vaccine was not tested on pregnant women and hence why it is not licensed for use in this group, however no reports of any harm have been reported in individuals as per the evidence collated within COVID-19 in Pregnancy (PregCOV-19LSR) – University of Birmingham) .“
#1 is the baaing of an absolute retard.
#6 shows the those who have written the ‘facts’ are not impartial.
Fact: You are not bullet proof after being vaccinated and can still pass on the virus to others. Unless you have a medical reason for not wearing a mask, it is mandatory to wear one at all times when not at your desk whilst at work. Along with this remember Hands, Face and Space at all times.
So, not a vaccine then?
Virtually all they say is a myth.
Myth 1 : you can’t rush time regardless how many millions of mans hours went into this.
Myth 2: Totally ignoring T-Cell immunity and virology
Myth 3: Yes death, you can’t come back from that one.
Myth 4: Facemasks do fuck all other than to make you ill.
Myth 5: Yep it sure is.
Myth 6: What a stupid thing to put in a fact sheet. They may well as said it will turn shit into gold.
Myth 7: Government own website says they don’t know. If you don’t know then why risk it.
Shocking. You’re being asked to join the herd.
Are you going to send a rebuttal?
Yes I will do sometime next week, when I have got all of my references in a row.
Reads more like the ‘Credo’ rather than an analysis.
Dogma of the Covidian religion.
Founded on the fundamentally wrong panicker precept that covid is some kind of unusually dangerous disease, rather than on the truth – that it’s broadly in the same category as other seasonal respiratories.
Other conclusions are subordinate to that basic error, mostly rationalisations for why normal presumptions should not apply to policies supposedly addressing covid, because it’s an unusual “emergency” situation, such as not bothering with the usual testing regimes for medication, requiring ridiculous over-precautions, etc
Estimated Study Completion Dates from the US National Library of Medicine clinical trials database:

Hi p02099003
Many thanks for posting.
When I see this sort of thing, if I ever I have doubts (and occasionally I do) as to whether I am correct to be at the very least dubious/curious/concerned about what is going on, then this reassures me.
Myth 6 in particular really is written to appeal to dribbling simpletons, no other way to dress it up.
Best regards
Simon
6 is in there to show that everybody that has any doubts about vaccine must believe all these myths and so must be an idiot because 6 is so ridiculous .
personally i think 6 is a myth but all the others are not – or are not verifiable
Shit that’s upsetting, Nessie isn’t real? WTF! Next they’ll be fact checking Bigfoot.
They fact check memes now so nothing would surprise me
Myth 8: covid19 is worse than flu
Myth 9: only one jab then you’re done
Myth 10: This will never be mandatory
There are literally dozens, maybe even hundreds of research projects underway to realize the nanites in point #6.
I work for a health care company and what is really alarming and not a little scary is that this was distributed in the name of our clinical lead, a GP with 24 years experience.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9271839/Dominic-Cummings-wanted-Boris-Johnson-SCRAP-Sage-raging-leaks-pro-lockdown-scientists.html
The Cummings dirt starting to come out. Nice to see some pressure getting placed on SAGE as well.
It’s ironic that SAGE is so crap that even Cummings can be right.
Of course, he was wrong in just wanting to get rid of an advisory body – frying pan to fire stuff. But, as with the MHRA, there is a crying need for proper, independence that also constrains participants from sounding off.
“Of course, he was wrong in just wanting to get rid of an advisory body “
Why? Hasn’t the lesson of this been precisely that establishment certification is no guarantee of not being disastrously wrong? And given that, why have a massively funded patronage body that just gives additional credence to “experts” regarded as acceptable by the establishment?
Any government needs expert advice. But the politicians should take responsibility for their actions, and not be able to palm it off on a supposed official committee of approved experts. So have a Chief Medical Officer, and assume he has responsibility for advising the government on the state of the science.
What exactly does a huge committee of approved “experts” add?
But the experts do not accept collective responsibility. The constant press statements from individuals in SAGE, “Independent SAGE”, NERVETAG, all giving their opinions. This must be intentional to cause more fear and uncertainty.
Wasn’t there something here recently about politicians using the perception of giving up power (supposedly deferring to expert advice) to mask grabs for increased power? “We have to do it because the experts say so”.
Of course the experts will always say in their turn (correctly) that they are not the decision makers.
Advisers advise. Ministers decide.
There used to be politicians who knew this to be technocracy. Not any more. Politicians see Westminster as a stepping stone to private sector networks and mega bucks. The ministerial ones actually need to be driven by this to get a cabinet post I’d say.
Check out a book called Parliament Inc.
True. Devri Sindhar was complaining on twitter this week that people are blaming her for the impact school closures are having on kids.
She only advises apparently. Government’s decide if she raving mad or not.
They were terrified of Cummings
He wasn’t the bad guy in this instance
He was pretty clearly one of the Guilty Men of panic and lockdown.
Cummings is a master at the dark art of manipulation to gain advantage and achieve certain aims. Nothing appears in the MSM about Cummings without his mitts somewhere involved. One of the PM’s concerns, amoungst many, will be what Cummings knows and the damage it can do.

He described an extraordinarily successful ‘natural experiment’ that used physical therapy (physiotherapy) to help the sickest COVID patients clear their lungs which resulted in less than half the mortality rate.
It took place during a surge last year when a shortage of PPE meant they were not able to provide the routine physiotherapy i.e. sitting up on edge of bed, getting out of bed, walking a few steps for 40% of the patients. ( It takes about 45 minutes to prepare and perform this for a patient on oxygen therapy to walk for 5 minutes with equipment attached.) When they compared the results from the two groups of patients the 60% of patients who did mobilise had a large survival benefit and were able to be discharged. It’s obviously time consuming and if there are staff shortages it wouldn’t be possible.
No shit sherlock!
Chest physio for patients with respiratory infections has been going on for ever……
I know as I worked with them in a multidisciplinary team in hospital. Others may be interested.
“Chest Physiotherapy” has been a standard treatment for years for people suffering from cystic fibrosis as this causes mucus on the lungs and the physio can help clear this.
So another example of an accepted and useful therapy that should have been applied to covid patients a year ago
I like this idea Is A Revolutionary Movement Developing In Europe?
Oh no – I’ve just had a *bilingual* invitation by letter to be jabbed as I live in England but my GP is in Wales. I told the GP 3 months ago that I didn’t want one ‘for the time being’. This has not got through.
Nor can I imagine anyone driving to the Royal Welsh Showground in Builth Wells from an address over the border in Herefordshire or Shropshire. So the bosses of Powys Health Board can stick the pile of waste paper they sent me up their arse.
Many GPs in rural Wales are now salaried not independent contractors so seem less able to go against the party line. I think I’ll de-register from any GP to make it harder to track me.
I was never that impressed with my local GP practice here in Suffolk and have been seriously considering deregistering for some time.
Tell them you’ll have it when they let you out of house arrest.
I’d drive there from where I live in Herefordshire just for the fun of a legal drive through Wales. By the time I got to Builth Wells I would develop cold feet about the jab and come home by a different scenic route.
I’m a member of a car club and have just had the misfortune to read a conversation on a neighbouring region’s FB page.
‘1st jab tomorrow BRING IT ON!
‘Nice one’
Mate’s Dad got it yesterday, he’s over the moon’
‘Still have to keep safe, light at the end of the tunnel in sight’
‘I’m all jabbed now, next one 6 May, YES!
They’re going to be so disappointed when they find that nothing changes.
Absolutely pathetic!
I didn’t bother counting the number of thumbs up from other members!
When they start knowing more people IRL who died mysteriously after the jab than with Covid-19 then things will get interesting
That’s assuming if we get to hear about it.
But then it would be due to underlying health problems both known or unknown.
Government ministers and their advisers have repeatedly and consistently said the vaccinated have to comply with all the coronavirus rules. Why are they not hearing this?
Because they don’t want to hear it.
My aunt has decided now that she’s had her first one she can go out with her daughter again, its a miracle
That is one way this thing will erode, I suppose, whatever the government says. “I have had the jab so I’m good to go.”
The virus will kill us all.
The vaccine is complete protection.
Restrictions will be lifted.
The cheque is in the post.
No, your bum doesn’t look big.
LOL quite!
Grim. Have they seen the latest?
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-vaccine-variants-third-shot-bill-gates/
I see this on my FB too. One which sticks to mind is a friends elderly mother actually got all dressed up to go and have her jab as if it was some sort of special occasion. Then her kids & friends were congratulating her on having it. Crazy.
Friend of Mrs FP had her jab the other day and she said how she enjoyed it because it was a day out; she even put some earrings in.
Your FB? Do you really believe it is yours? Honestly, just delete the bloody thing now. Social media is driving the hysteria and delusional psychosis. (That and the BBC and other MSM) MW
Shouldnt being “over the moon” be recorded as an adverse effect of the virus on the yellow pages. Seems to be a mental incapacity of some sort
Testing kids twice a week? For what purpose? It cant be to look after the health of children because Covid isnt a threat to children. Infact the opposite, if a child is exposed to covid then they will become immune to it, protecting them for life. My daughter has had covid, but if she hadnt had, I would want her to get it in preference to the vaccine, risks are far lower and protection is far greater with natural immunity.
So what are they trying to do with this stupid testing. Well apart from the grift for those supplying the testing kits, the answer has to be to farm for new cases so we can be kept in lockdown. That appears to be the only reason on the table.
We need to keep pointing out that now everyone vulnerable has been vaccinated, from this point on even by the government’s own figures and estimates, lockdown is killing more people than it is saving. Not that in reality it ever saved any lives, we know from the US that more people die of Covid in lockdown states proportionally than in non-locked down states. Lockdowns kill.
I am particularly concerned about sticking wands up peoples’ noses. For what purpose? No one should go for that route. If they are that concerned a mouth swab would do just as well.
It’s to pacify the teaching unions, nothing else.
Oh the days when a Conservative government stood up to the unions….
P.S. My letter ‘inviting’ me to be jabbed quotes the usual NHS rubbish IFRs of
Overall almost 1%, probably the 0.9% from the scare mongers in early 2020
10% for over-75s
I may e-mail the Health Board with references for an IFR of nearer 0.2% and probably 0.01% if using vitamin D, etc.
My letter told me that the risk of serious illness due to coronavirus increases with age and that wherever I choose to go for the jab I will be safe from the virus and that I should have 2 jabs.
They have officially gone full quack only now then.
It’s got nothing to do with age really. Many very old people survive a bout of this because they are in good general health. See Japan and their Vit D levels. So age is a bit of a red herring.
Also, rarely mentioned is that sars-cov-2 binds to ACE2 receptors in the body, something which is boosted by all manner of medication common for cardiovascular issues among other things. So over medication in the West may certainly be playing a part. Again this is nothing to do with being old per say but such meds are more common for that age group.
Get the VitD into you. Get out. See your friends. Tell them to do the same. Life breeds life.
Lack of vitamin D is endemic in care homes as, even before the lockdown, they were permanently locked down. The same is true for long term patients in hospitals. I know from experience that you have to insist that they test for vitamin D deficiency but even then the dose they give is very low. It’s extraordinary- almost as if they don’t want people to get well…
Why do the Rockerfeller started and owned medical industry want “well” people? No profit in it.
But being permanently on medications that only hold things in abeyance and never cure you and/or being permanently ill with something is a different matter.
Lack of vitamin D will also makes osteoporosis worse
The mail is reporting that Pfizer is a lot less effective for the South Africa variant. There goes the get the vulnerable vaccinated then we can unlock narrative.
The Sunday Sport is more accurate than The Mail or The Express
Clearly a racist, colonial and white supremacist vaccine and it should be cancelled immediately
They have DEFINITELY used Lockdown as a BAIT AND SWITCH.
They are going to push for the vaccine/experimental gene therapy.
ALL doctors who refuse to question the experimental gene therapy are SUSPECT.
That applies to those of the Great Barrington Declaration, also.
THERE ARE FALSE OPPOSITION EVERYWHERE!
Don’t fall for their ruse.
The new State Of The Art Gene Therapy Units open soon in the UK
Just focusing on the possibility of getting positive tests to sub-1,000 per day. This would mean reducing positive tests to below a quarter of the current assumed FPR rate of 0.8%.
To do this all FPRs need to be eliminated.
All in hospital transmission needs to be eliminated.
The questions MSM should be asking are:
Make no mistake, this is a zero covid policy!
I have called this year zero because it’s zero covid in all but name. The pandemic as been used to terrify the people with its use of psychological warfare. The stats don’t add up,for example every day we are given deaths what no one is asking what effect is covid having on all cause mortality. Now if we assume only covid is causing mortality to increase we find that it as increased by 10% or 66,000 yet the media tells us its nearly double that. What is happening is the government is deliberately misleading us to believe that strokes,heart disease and other illnesses have magically declined. Or look at the infection rate, the government tells us 1 in 200 is infected not that 99.8% are covid free. The main aim is to terrify us so they can bring in authoritarian government be it vaccine passports or whatever this is Owells 1984 nightmare world. If we look back in history we see in politics left wing and right wing parties flirting with authoritarian government in the 1930s. So if you was on the right it was fascism or Nazism while if you was on the left it was communism. All these ideologies ended up in the dust bin of history but not before they killed hundreds of millions through dehumanization and murder. I hope I am wrong because I don’t want my children growing up in such a dark inhumane world.
You have to laugh! Rang the vet again about having my 5 month old male kitten neutered. Apparently they are still not doing routine ops and are waiting to see what Boris says on Monday! I really don’t think that he will specifically mention the neutering of cats, or dogs, but the way things are going at the moment nothing would surprise me.
Boris announces “You can now neuter your cat”
If its allowed should I buy a cat?
Presumably in the New Normal Britain, what is not forbidden is compulsory. So you will be required not just to obtain a cat, but to have it neutered.
Only if you let it be a cat.
Bloody Boris needs neutering. Oh, wait….
Nymeria you beat me to the comment!
A rig is an entire male horse with no signs of external testicles so appears to be a gelding; but one or two testicles are still present, producing testosterone. A rig behaves like a stallion and, potentially, may be fertile. Their behaviour is unpredictable and they can be dangerous to handle so they should be castrated. Some geldings still show stallion-like behaviour despite being fully castrated; they are called “false rigs”. The only form of treatment in these cases is behavioural therapy.
Trot on, Boris
‘Unpredictable and dangerous to handle’. Sounds like my kitten!
And one of my cats. He’s a Bengal.
Find another vet.
Yes, change your vet.
Our vets are operating normally as in delivering care, but no home visits or entering the surgery. Another vet methinks.
Pets are “not sustainable” in the Agenda 2030 green lifestyle so don’t worry about it, they’ll be finding ways to do away with pets soon hence the testing is available for cats and dogs meme starting.
I did read recently about a feline influenza vaccine that is similar to the mRNA ones and that was tested and 100% of the cats died not soon aferewards in the trial, will try and dig it out.
I do wonder whether the sheep would be more inclined to modify their brainwashed behaviour, should the next stage of the plan be to come after pets and livestock.
Should read ‘to come for pets and livestock’
Well Ferguson knows how to do that already.
He sure does. I remember the sickening fires of burning carcasses near to where I live. Bastard him.
I suspect your 5 month old male kitten will be quite happy to hear that bad mews…
Looks like Sweden is going to go the same way as the rest of the world, article talks about closing places where social distancing is difficult so shops, gyms, restaurants etc but museums can be opened.
https://www.thelocal.se/20210217/lockdown-sweden-gets-ready-to-ramp-up-coronavirus-restrictions
Tom in Scotland mentioned this depressing possibility last night.
It’s strange to me that they seem to respond after the peak threat has passed, and I wonder if it’s a matter of political and diplomatic pressure filtering through slowly to political action.
I can’t understand why as the threat is so low now especially in their country so yes I’d imagine the political pressure to conform is pretty immense now
I’m thinking it’s the effects of past pressure working its way through, because although a lot of the pressure will be continuous (from those who just believe in panic response and state powers generally), the peak political pressure comes, as in this country, when numbers in hospital are rising and lots of people fear that there might be some kind of imminent disaster.
That’s when, in this country for instance, the weak reeds in the resistance to lockdown joined the panickers.
But obviously once numbers turn down, that peak of pressure goes.
So perhaps it’s due to structural issues in Swedish society, politics and governance that determine the manner and pace of response.
Hopefully they have some regional heads, like in the US, who can push back. If things worked for them in 2020, why change? Halmstad banned masks in schools yesterday
Though I note that these proposals are to create powers for potential use next time (much nonsense about a “third wave”), not to implement now.
Presumably some Swedes are pointing out the inherent absurdity of introducing supposedly “necessary” emergency measures for next time, immediately after this time has established beyond question that such methods are not required.
I’ll believe it when I see it…
Which?
Bill finally found the pictures of Löfven he can use.
Maybe the politicians there just feel they’re missing out on all the fun.
I think vaccines have changed the game in Sweden. I am not saying it is correct, but the thinking is that they might as well shut up shop until the vaccine rollout protects the most vulnerable. The problem they have is the same one everyone else has which is when will it be safe enough to come out from behind the sofa. Whatever, nothing changes their strategy last summer being the correct one.
Yes, that’s all convincing/true.
Much depends on how the vaccine deployers manage opinion longer term, and how successfully. At the moment they seem to be trying to juggle saying people must have it with saying having it doesn’t allow you to change your behaviour.
I’m not entirely sure what to make of this. I think part of it is simply that policy making in Sweden tends to be very thorough and usually operates in a consensual way, which takes time in a multiparty system where minority governments are common. While I was disturbed to see this last night, I’m trying not to read too much into it because it looks like more of a precautionary thing; the government has not said it plans to use these powers yet.
Part of the problem is that the Swedish government has been attacked by the usual suspects: a rather sensationalistic media (the UK is not alone in this) and some obnoxious busybodies in the ‘public health’ community that want to introduce more neopuritanism (even though Sweden has quite the nanny state now). Although many scientists agreed with what Anders Tegnell was doing, there was a very vocal minority that disagreed, and I suspect that some of them are getting through to the government now. The King’s somewhat alarmist Christmas message didn’t help (time for a republic?) and I’ve been hearing about how afraid some of my elderly and even middle-aged relatives are there for some time. The Rona is a First World problem, in my view.
Remember that Sweden is the land of ‘big government’ and what has surprised me most in all of this is how Sweden was so restrained with its restrictions compared to most other countries – until I remembered how the constitution works and how deeply rooted liberty actually is (they may not be ‘libertarians’, but Swedes do value personal freedom more than you might think).
Makes sense.
The Great Panic will provide material for academics to study for generations, and the dynamics of Sweden’s resistance to the worst of it (and slow partial capitulation) will be an enlightening field of study imo.
The ironic thing is their lockdown Stringency is still less than the UK. And now harder than their scandanavian neighbours. Who had less deaths.
So I think it moves the goalposts but the fundamentals remain solid. Lockdowns do not prevent any deaths, only cause them
Can’t see the Swedes going along with it tbh
at least – not until they amend their own constitution
The NHS much be spending a fortune on postage! Today another letter reminding me to book an appointment. I told them over the phone I’m not having it yet they keep persisting in writing. One thing the public sector does do is spend taxpayers money needlessly.
My local Doctors surgery does this every year with the flu jab. TXT messages, letters in the post, phone calls, emails. I assumed it was because they get sales commission from the pharma companies for each flu jab they give and hence their sales/marketing campaign trying to drum up sales. I guess the covid jab is the same.
Yes they are being paid about £12 per jab for the Covid and about £10 for the flu jab. Its a nice little sideline, along with certain prescription medicines from the drug companies their bank accounts must be looking quite ‘healthy’ even if their patients aren’t.
From ATL –
Come on, Will. You’re a journalist, not a SAGE nudger. The headline should give the essence of the story, not the msm hoped-for message that it will be compulsory.
How do ya know?
Born savvy.
A gut feeling eh? I get one of them about sage too.
I’m actually quite looking forward to seeing how many different things I can test. The world is literally my oyster.
My understanding is that schools still require parental consent for any medical intervention, which presumably includes testing. Why would pupils be excluded if their parents withhold consent? That would be gratuitous punishment of an innocent child.
The current guidelines for the school/college testing is that consent has to be obtained and it is not mandatory. Just strongly encouraged.
I have heard from Rosie today and she is OK but she can’t remember her password so this is why she hasn’t commented for ages. I am trying to help her with this so lets see.
Pass on our regards.
Rosie2 !?
Rosie1, the original.
Be nice to see the old crew back
Lots of names that dont post anymore
I think lots of the old crowd are still around just not commenting as much perhaps.
She could come back as Rosey, with a new password. We’d know it was her because she’d tell us.It would be grand to have her back.
So glad she is ok. I’ve missed her posts.
Irish Doctor says vaccines are experimental and unproven. Prescribes HCQ instead which is banned in Ireland. Yes banned. That’s criminal stuff at this stage. He’ll take the government to court
https://richieallen.co.uk/irish-doctor-to-fight-government-over-refusal-to-give-covid-vaccine/
Is it possible that the fall in the number of vaccinations yesterday is a result of the failure to use vaccination as a means to open up society?
I was coming round to the idea of being vaccinated but if I am still going to have to stay at home, not meet my loved ones, not cease social distancing and mask wearing (not that I ever wear one!) why would I have a novel vaccine for a disease unlikely to kill me?
Seems to me the government has shot itself in the foot by being irredeemably over cautious yet again.
I think the fact that people who have been vaccinated are now realising it hasn’t changed a damn thing, as they were (mis)lead to believe. There appears to be increasing anger and frustration from non sceptics.
God I hope so. Struggling to cope today and had a sleepless night
Stay strong and hopeful fellow NI sceptic. I felt like that a week or so ago and just took a break from all media and here too. Sometimes the screen scroll hole can’t be good for you. Lots of self care and quality time with family helps.
Take a break, I had a few days away and it did me good. Keep the faith.
I recommend a hot decaff drink, a leccy blanket and a favourite audiobook. But double whiskey might do just as well, according to taste.
Who misled them into believing that being vaccinated would mean they would not have to comply with the coronavirus rules? Government ministers and their advisers have repeatedly stated that the vaccinated have to comply with all the coronavirus rules. They could not have been more clear.
Not necessarily from the government, but the media in general have been implying that the vaccine would be a get out clause for lockdown.
Why oh why would anyone after all the shitshow of the last 11 months believe a word the media says?
You are being too forgiving by far. The implication from way back was that vaccination would be a ‘solution’. (‘The Final Solution’?)
The government did when they first started on the “mass vaccinations” theme.
It’s even on the radio adverts – get your vaccination, get back to normal.
Before that , it was “Let’s get tested and get back to what we love” You know, all the things that have been shut ever since…
Vaccines plural. Not vaccine. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-vaccine-variants-third-shot-bill-gates/
Gate said this doesn’t end until the whole world is vaccinated. Now that means multiple times, yearly. Yeah, you’ll be a walking experiment
I hope be reading Gates’s Obituary very soon.
I wouldn’t PISS on his Obituary if someone gave me a printed copy
There was a time when anyone making pronouncements like this would have been gently led away to a padded cell.
Concentrate on IRL on what you can see around you
The media and internet are not representative of real life
The only reason I would have considered vaccination would be to travel internationally now that looks to be off the cards for the foreseeable there is no need.
Asymptomatic transmission needs to be publicly debunked, even the crooked WHO have admitted that asymptotic transmission is rare and no cases recorded. They claim to follow the science, but that appears to be selective – if we had the media properly investigating the PCR and fasle positives and the practical myth of asymptomatic transmission this whole shit show would fall apart.
Parents need to push back on this invasive testing procedure, including mask wearing. Imagine 18 months ago if you read that a mother had kept her child indoors, deprived them of daylight, exercise or social contact. Shoved probes up their nose and throat twice a week, taught them to fear other humans as vectors of diseas and forced them to wear masks, you would consider it abhorrent child abuse, deserving a prison sentence. So, this is where we are, normalised child abuse, unless parents say no on mass.
Munchausen by Proxy on a giant scale isn’t it?
Yes, there is the Wuhan trial (10 million residents) that debunked ‘asymptomatic transmission’ but the TRUTH won’t get in the way of the Government when they have an agenda to lock us up forever.
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19802-w
The Government has been ramping up the concept of asymptomatic transmission with advertisement claiming that 1 in 3 people with Covid have no symptoms.
This is obviously orchestrated to implement stunts like testing school children with tests that are very unreliable. This also helps frighten people more so that any person could be suspected of being the infectious baddie.
The radio advertisement stating the below should be banned by ASA
Where did this idea that children are super spreaders come from? Did it originate from one of those vile government propaganda ads? Was the assumption made by the population that children must be carriers because schools were closed? I don’t get it.
I have been assured by a lot of grandparents that they had the jab so they could see grandchildren. Aaaagh.
I think (simply) that children are a group to blame who can’t effectively speak up for themselves. It’s not massively different to stopping flights because obviously foreign Covid is riskier.
I reckon if you broke positive tests down by age demographic, it would overwhelmingly be the most vocal group – the 50-70yr olds – that are represented.
It’s always someone else’s fault.
It is child abuse and they need telling.
They need to be flogged and then hung by the neck until dead.
You know how Bozo and his ladylove are so into being Green?. Well here’s an article on how things are going in Texas!
https://stateofthenation.co/?p=53051
I couldn’t believe what is happening there. This is a state with its own oil and gas industry suffering from power outages?
Something not right there…
Texas didn’t take kindly to the covid bollox – the power cuts are their punishment.
Global warming will do that. NOT.
“Test and Trace was an expensive failure”
This is a relative view from the perspective of the farmed humans.
From the perspective of crony capitalism – it is a nice little earner, but that is nothing as to the conditioning of the people to a pervasive structure of surveillance and control.
That it could be bought so cheaply!
Unless there is an expansion of perspective in the LDS thinking and reporting, the passive sleepwalk into greater nightmare continues under some sense of righteous indignation that is effectively ‘kettled’ and ignored, or marked out as ‘threat to society’.
So the past tense for T&T is false, because it is active ongoing as the means to control humans at all levels, from thinking to speech, and behaviours to bio-tech.
If the Tech Experiment reveals its true cost and inherent failure, it will be the bottoming out by which an awakening to love as the power of life will be revealed in place of a control-addiction.
Important interview with Professor Anthony Brookes about the problems with ‘mass’ testing:
https://twitter.com/talkRADIO/status/1362331181426102274?s=20
Along with my covid jab invitation letter I was amazed to receive an attachment in 16 languages including Tagalog! Yeh I’ve never heard of that one either, but apparently looking it up its Philappean, you see you learn something every day.
Yes I got a second one today! I’m sure the huge Nepalese community in Cornwall are thrilled to know the caring NHS has their health and wellbeing at heart!
A fairly random (and probably implausible) idea came to me the other day, based on a few things. Let me try and explain, probably in a very convoluted way
Firstly, one of the initial thrusts of the propaganda was to get celebrities – many of them sportspeople – to rattle out the same platitudes (stay home, mask up, we must do more testing etc). I imagine it was very effective, seeing as many people will for some reason listen to Rory McIlroy or whoever saying this, and believe it.
Stay with me here
Then a second more recent thing was that Wilfried Zaha (a black footballer if you don’t know) said the other day that he is not in favour of taking the knee (“why must I kneel down for you to show that we matter?”). So he is one of the few people to question BLM (and he’s black so can’t easily be shot down)
I’m getting there
I also then realised that most sports are still going on, albeit without crowds mostly. So really, the impact of lockdown on professional sportspeople is very small. And similarly for sports fans. We can’t go to the events, but most of it is still televised so we can still watch. For a lot of people, sport is one of their main comforts, so as long as they can watch, the lockdown doesn’t annoy them so much. But it sport was taken away, maybe they wouldn’t stand for lockdowns
Last one
Novak Djokovic has recently spoken out to say that tennis players will soon get fed up of the quarantining that they have to do. A very small, covert indication that he’s sick of the lockdown rules (even though he can still earn his prize money)
So my point – what would happen if they (professional sportspeople) took this a step further and said “we aren’t going to play until you stop this lockdown crap. Let fans back in, stop this 14 day isolation stuff and all lockdown shit. Otherwise we are downing tools”? Not only would it be a very visible message that can’t easily be controlled by the media or government, but it would piss off a high percentage of the population who might not be so badly affected by lockdowns and are therefore either compliant or passive.
If say just a few of the top tennis players, or just one Premier League Team, or a few top golfers spoke out and took this action then it might have a big impact. Do something similar to what Zaha and Djokovic did but with knobs on, and get your team mates or rivals to join in
Sadly I think it’s a pipe dream. I doubt that many of them are even sceptics, and even if they are, they stand to lose their income and possibly reputation. But I thought I would share it anyway. Maybe we should be writing to our football team’s chairman or our favourite golfer rather than our MPs. I think I’m going to see what Eddie Pepperel thinks
There is a lot of truth in what you say.
Elite sport is being allowed to carry on because it would collapse without the flow of TV rights cash. The Government knows this and realizes it cannot allow that collapse to happen.
So much else (including hospitality) is expendable.
Locked Down Lives Matter.
I agree. The reverse (kind of) may also be true. IE that if elite sport stopped, it would impact TV. Moreover, that type of protest may create some sort of public lockdown mutiny by waking up a large proportion of the population (those who are sports fanatics) to the negative impact that lockdowns have on people’s lives, and that lockdowns are not justified
Look, the lockdowns are NOT ending in the sense that you are unlikely to ever travel again or visit a pub again.
The issue is the vaccines.
They are an experimental gene therapy and those who take them are a research farm for later technologies that will be sold to those who can afford them.
WHO… GIVES… A FUCK ABOUT SOME FOOTBALLER.
WAKE UP!
Whoa. Back off a bit! I’m fully awake.
I don’t really get your point if I’m honest. I completely agree that the “vaccines” are gene therapy. I will never take one under any circumstances.
I don’t think “the issue is the vaccines”. The “issue” in my view is that the entire response to “COVID” is way out of proportion. There has been a series of lies, all of which are designed to keep us in lockdown, give us hope, then put us back in lockdown ad nauseum. The vaccine is just one string to this bow.
“Who gives a fuck about some footballer”. Quite a few people. Several million of the UK population. I admit that my scenario will almost definitely never happen, but my point is that IF the top Premier League Teams, or the 6 nations rugby teams, or the PGA tour or ATP collectively said “We will no longer comply with lockdowns and we’re going on strike” then the governments would have to do something, because a huge number of the public would not stand for it.
I wouldn’t want to be in a foxhole with you, FuoL
Lockdown until 1000 cases a day.Its not pessimism but realism.
We should be so lucky . The vast majority of all sports people are Virtue Signalling cunts
Yes, that’s the flaw in my plan. Although I have seen that Lee Westwood and Eddie Pepperell have both tweeted in opposition to the govt on this
I’ve been trying to think of anything positive. I’ve come up with the following:
Thoughts?
They don’t work for us?
It’s a shit show.
I think the regime is trying to decide when to jump so as to escape the rapids between the fear they’ve created and the rebellion against the measures they’ve imposed.
You might be correct that they had a better opportunity to jump last autumn. But the politics are hugely complicated and I’m not sure if that’s correct or not (from the self-interested point of view of politicians, that is – the wider point obviously is that panic and lockdown have been disasters for the nation that never should have been implemented and the sooner they were abandoned the better).
“They may have shot themselves in the foot with the vaccination by making it clear it doesn’t change anything. “
Will be interesting if they change the message on this soon. Presumably their fear was that they would get blamed if society opened up again and the vaccines didn’t work to control the disease. Once the coronavirus season ends they can safely change the message if they need to, to push vaccine uptake.
Agree 100% with your point 3. Expectation was that the jab would mean the return of civil liberties, otherwise there is no absolutely no point.
If there is no very significant reversal of unproven and damaging NPIs, I sincerely believe the sheeple will finally wake up.
Regarding points 1 and 3, I think it depends to some extent on whether you favour the “cock up” model or the “conspiracy” model. I have always believed the latter, and the longer it goes on the more I believe it.
If we this is all deliberate, the obvious next question is why? I don’t pretend to be an expert, but I have read quite a lot on this over the last year. To me it can logically be explained as follows. This has been put forward by commentators much more intelligent and articulate than me, but here is my version
99% of governments are essentially controlled by the “Deep State” i.e. primarily the central bank(st)ers who create fiat currency, lend it to the govt and thus plunge them further into debt. It doesn’t matter who is in power, they are controlled (with the possible exception of Trump, hence the desire to get rid of him, but I digress).
The end game is for the banksters to gain more power / control, which means removing it from the population at large. Basically the New World Order. So COVID is really a trojan horse used to introduce these measures. The vaccine is just one more element of the smoke screen. It was most likely put out there to raise hope but then dash it again, whilst at the same time making a fortune for big pharma
They are playing the long game in my view. A slow burn towards global totalitarianism. They will keep testing the waters with measure after measure. Three weeks to protect the NHS, another month to flatten the curve. Oh, there’s a second wave. Oh, now a new strain. But there’s a vaccine coming to save us. Oh it isn’t 100% effective etc etc. All the time, seeing how far they can go before there’s too much resistance. which so far, there hasn’t been. but if they feel that they’ve overplayed their hand, they will back off and make it look like they’ve saved us
So on point 1, I think the govt is just following orders. Dealing with COVID sensibly was never part of the plan – I think it was always “how far can we go without creating a mutiny”.
On point 3, the vaccine, I don’t think they ever really gave a shit if it “works”. It was how much the population believed it would. I’m sure there is a plan to deal with what happens next. Repress all news of vaccine adverse reactions / deaths. If we want the vaccine to have “worked”, slow down testing and celebrate that we “beat COVID”. Or conversely, say there is a new strain and we have to stay in lockdown until they have a new vaccine.
Possibly the vaccine is there to euthenise a bunch of the population, or even to introduce digital tracking. But I think it’s more likely a test to see what people will fall for. If they pass that test, they can up the ante in future

Why do you think that gags are such a huge thing to the BDSM community. They are symbolic of the removal of the submissive’s voice and his or her ability to share an opinion.
A good BDSM relationship is based on consent.
Kinky people have better mental health and better relationships as they communicate more.
A gag is used as part of a scene, to get into headspace, as it is exciting. It is not primarily used to shut someone up.

Dear Supporter
The current environment is having a real and potentially lasting impact on the mental health of the nation. People are experiencing heightened levels of fear, anxiety and isolation.
The Recovery campaign was set up in order to highlight and address the impact of lockdown policies and seek a more empathetic and effective Government approach to managing the pandemic. Through our work, we’ve seen first-hand how the mental health crisis is developing and we want to do something practical about it.
Three of our members and co-founders who are experts in mental health are volunteering their time by offering a free online clinic on psychological, mental and emotional health, in a safe and supportive environment.
If you feel you, a family member or a friend would benefit from specialist support, then questions or specific issues can be submitted by email. Our experts will then select a broad range of submissions for the clinic, ensuring that an individual’s identity remains anonymous at all times.
How it works
Simply submit an issue/question to info@timeforrecovery.org by 5pm on Wednesday 24th February.
As many questions/issues as possible will then be dealt with during the live streamed clinic, lasting between 60-90 minutes at 8pm on Thursday 25th February on:
YouTube
Twitter
Please spread the word to anyone who could possibly benefit. For further information on this new weekly initiative please visit http://www.recoveryourspark.org
Thank you

Not going as well as it was in our ‘covid free’ paradise, lol.
Govts arrogance, hubris and authoritarianism will be biting them on the backside for a long time to come unless they wake up to reality soon.
Was the IOM govt generally hands off in the olden times??
A while back a selection of great quotes was shared here on LS, my favourite being the C.S Lewis one about the tyranny of robber barons vs omnipotent moral busybodies. Anyway, I decided to revisit the full essay this morning, and I’d say it’s really worth a listen.
https://youtu.be/ZxwnHVr192A?t=760
Starts at the quote and from there on he hits the nail on the head several times. It’s framed for Christians but you can well imagine the example he uses can also be applied to sceptics in our current predicament.
Just wanted to post this as its really angered a lot of the family.
My nan sadly passed away this week after growing steadily worse through dementia over the course of the lockdown, probably caused by the lack of social contact from her family as her care home stopped all access
She had her vaccine about 4 weeks ago, then a few days later tested positive for Covid. Over the last three weeks she has exhibited no symptoms. No temperature, no cough or hard to breath. This week she asked for a cup of tea, then when the carer returned she has peacefully passed away, just over 3 weeks from the positive Covid test.
So no symptoms at all, no ill health beyond the dementia, yet the main cause of death has been listed as Covid, with Vascular Dementia as a secondary course. We are beyond angry – she is now a covid statistic even though it is the Lockdown, not covid, that caused her death.
Unfortunately it seems there is very little we can do about it. We all know that Covid wasn’t the cause. Covid patients dont ask for a cup of tea then pass away straight afterwards. The registrar said she didn’t want it investigating as she saw it as an open and shut case …
Isn’t there something you can do, someone you can complain to? Refuse to register the death or something?
To put down cause of death as covid when it was clearly something else is, in my view, a gross indignity to the deceased, and final insult. Maybe tackle the doctor who signed the death certificate with this? I certainly would.
I’m so sorry about what happened to your nan, how upsetting for you all. It’s outrageous that her death should be passed off as due to Covid when it seems clear that it was nothing of the sort. When my mum died (not of Covid) we were offered the opportunity to speak to a doctor if we had any questions. I took up the offer and they duly followed up with a phone call. Worth asking if you can do that. Good luck.
So sad for you all, and you poor Nan. I hope you can find some peace soon
Your experience is not acceptable but as a minimum you should formally lodge your complaints. There will be reviews, possible legal, once this debacle ends, and your stories will be an important part of exposing the fraud and harm done to millions.
I know this is a trying time but if you are up for a bit of a fight in anger you could ask for a correction on the death certificate:
https://www.gov.uk/correcting-a-death-registration
This is the latest guidance from the BMA to doctor’s about what/how to fill in a death certificate.
https://www.bma.org.uk/media/2843/bma-verification-of-death-vod-july-2020.pdf
The people who facilitated this situation need to swing
The World Health Alliance have successfully challenged doctors in Northern Ireland who put Covid-19 on the death certificate. Seek them out. They did it by threatening legal action for malfeasance.
Sticking swabs up healthy children’s noses, interfering with their education and social development, preventing the elderly from seeing and hugging loved ones, ruining the livelihoods of millions of people, cancelling life-saving treatment for people with cancer, heart conditions and dementia, damaging people’s mental health. Whatever happened to compassion and humanity? The people who govern this country are monsters.
The embodiment of pure evil.
Devils.
Literally.
Hell is real.
According to The Times, NHS Test and Trace is planning to send 400,000 lateral flow tests to homes and workplaces across the country every day!
Yet another shocking example of spaffing taxpayers money up the wall – obviously designed to ensure that ‘cases’ i.e. positive tests never get below the magic 1,000 per day.
If I get one it will be going straight in the bin!
Assuming a tiny 1% false positive rate on JUST ONE DAYS worth of 400,000 tests would give 4,000 false positives.
How convenient. If 1,000 positives is the highest figure deemed acceptable, then we can never escape lockdown based on the false positives alone.
Most amusing. But I think more and more people are coming to realise this isn’t about a virus or a public health issue at all.
£££££££ !!
At £20 per test that’s £3 billion per year. Some pals of Matt Hancock are going to get a nice slice of that.
I’ll be burning mine in the Garden
Fill mine with dogshit and send it back
Ooh I like that better. But what if the dog poo tests +ve..? ;-D
Another expert on the news just now, with the name of Spector, wouldn’t be surprised if he was related to Phil.

Good one.
Out and about this morning, great laugh with the check out girls at B&M my maskless face was joy to behold,all taking the piss out of lockdown,then over to the local bakery plenty of laughter and skeptic comments customers and staff joining in..It may just be my imagination but a smiling happy face seems to be far more appreciated than before lockdown,maybe the old saying “You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone”does have some meaning..
Stating the obvious, but people with masks just don’t engage – no eye contact, no facial expressions, and definitely no social chit chat. They turn into Zombies
This is exactly what I deliberately did here in the IoM when we were forced to wear masks recently, I just did what I had to do, ignored other maskers and didn’t engage in the ‘all in it together, let’s get on with it’ charade.
And Zoombies
And the biggest zombieprat of all is the zombie that wears face knickers on zoom.
Yes, really, some organisations require it.There was a council somewhere in Canada…
Regional comparison of seasonal change of all cause mortality
I’ve produced a chart of all cause mortality for English regions plus Wales, measured against an average mortality experienced over a recent year (2019 used) to remove seasonality from the base and to normalise the comparison between regions.
I’ve used all cause mortality because that best shows the seasonal increase in mortality across regions, whereas using covid labelled deaths is dependent on how you label things as covid over time.
All cause mortality is coming down across all regions, so seasonal deaths are receding quickly everywhere as they do in most years as Winter ends. Some caution is required for the most recent two weeks as the adjustment for deaths that have occurred but not been registered is subject to uncertainty.
Regionally, the graph seems to make sense with herd immunity being an equilibrium that we cycle in and out of because of seasonality and because of changing immunity levels in the population amongst other factors.
So London for example is hardest hit in the Spring wave, and probably overshoots herd immunity considerably more than any region. And so the winter resurgence (driven by SARS-C0V-2 being the dominant virus) occurs much later than other regions.
And the North West less hit than London in April 2020, has an early Autumn resurgence, overshoots the herd immunity equilibrium threshold then, and so is currently (January/February) less affected in the Winter compared to the Autumn relative to other regions.
My own analysis so subject to potential error
And if we look at the covid labelled deaths regionally by date of occurrence, the charts show a similar shape to the all cause data. This is what we would expect in a scenario of Winter viral deaths being dominated by SARS-C0V-2, either actually through SARS-C0V-2 dominating the virome, and/or numerically by all respiratory/seasonal deaths being labelled as covid.
Again the last few weeks should be viewed with caution as only a rough adjustment for deaths that have occurred but not been reported has been made.
You’ve done a good job in mapping this.
My only beef is that you interpret ‘Covid labelled deaths’ as having some solidity as a figure. I think it’s just a random sample following the curve of all-cause mortality – i.e all-cause by any other name.
I agree that covid labelled deaths probably have no solidity, but that was what I was saying when I used the word seasonal
This is what we would expect in a scenario of Winter viral deaths being dominated by SARS-C0V-2, either actually through SARS-C0V-2 dominating the virome, and/or numerically by all respiratory/seasonal deaths being labelled as covid.
And that was why I used all cause mortality in the analysis and used covid labelled deaths as a sense check.
Obviously there can be deaths also that aren’t seasonal deaths but are labelled as covid (the heart attack death in the winter is labelled as covid but the heart attack death in the summer isn’t)
It is important to distinguish between ABSOLUTE and RELATIVE SARS_CoV-2 labelled Winter deaths across regions (current winter resurgence vs Spring 2020 peak).
Absolutely London has been hit the worst in both periods but relatively is arguably the least affected in the Winter resurgence.
The South West was least affected ABSOLUTELY in the Spring and one of the least affected regions in the Winter resurgence absolutely. But RELATIVELY it has been one of the worst hit regions in the Winter resurgence vs Spring 2020
Covid labelled deaths??? Completely meaningless.
And here’s the regional all cause chart with the top and bottom of the chart taken out so the variations can be more easily seen.
Your seasonal effect (small rise) is clearly seen from about 16 Oct until 25 Dec and then you get the huge temporary spike caused by deaths in care homes from inoculation.
Schools and testing
This has been covered by a number of posters here today already, but I’m throwing in my penny worth because I’m so angry. I’m lucky, my kids are in their thirties. If I had kids of school age I would be shitting myself with fear. I would try to find any way possible to protect them from this tyranny.
To those in Government: STOP IT, RIGHT NOW, THIS IS INSANE. Do you really hate children so much that you want to crush them completely? Look at the damage you’ve done already. Education destroyed, mental health destroyed, their future stripped away. You are a disgrace and will pay for this. You are as evil as those who wage war and call the shattered bodies of innocents “collateral damage”.
To parents: Refuse to comply with this evil regime. Keep them away from the testing trap. If necessary, keep your kids out of school and take the consequences. Your children are being brainwashed and mentally tortured. Is their education worth having? What have you got to lose? And make sure to keep them away from the coming “jabs”. Their lives depend on you more now than ever before.
I understand your massive anger. It affects my grandchildren rather than children – but that’s irrelevant.
I’ve refrained from writing to my MP, because it’s a worthless pursuit if used too often (and even less often), but I have done on this issue – restraining my language (incontinent shouting rightly gets ignored more easily), but making it clear by implication that anyone not opposing these measures are complicit in child abuse and in breaches of the agreed international framework governing medical ethics.
It is appalling that Mengele is back from the grave.
There is no way of getting “cases” below 1000 per day if they are going to insist on over 8 million children being tested twice a week. That’s a fact.
Aside from that, given the mental health abuse these kids have suffered over the last 9 months, to now load then with the blame for no lockdown exit is totally abhorrent. Whichever civil servant cunt came up with this should be held to account.
Every single individual who professes to be an advocate for children in this country (especially the medical profession and teaching profession) should be hammering on the door to no 10 to have this cancelled immediately.
If they continue with this not only will it ruin the social and educational lives of these kids but it will also generate a massive strain in the future on the education system as a whole. The system as it is is barely able to cope with those children who need extra attention and it’s a guarantee that there will be a hell of a lot more of them at the end of this.
Parents need to put their children first. Doctors, psychologists, charities etc all need to put a stop to this abuse NOW.
Surely the push back will start , surely !!! Messing with our kids !! How long do we put up with these Bastards ????…
This should/could be one of those Greta Thunberg “HOW DARE YOU!” moments
I think the meeting has already been had within the government and the narrative will become:
We tried to get the “cases” to 1000 per day but as you can see from the super scary graphs it is not possible. In order to plot another roadmap out of lockdown we have no other option than to insist on vaccinations for all and with a heavy heart that must include children.
Totally agree but I think they are trying to set the kids up to face this shit as a normal every day new way of life , we are too wise but the kids are malleable ! It’s a fucking disgrace !! Every day it just gets worse !
I does anyone know how to formally refuse consent for the testing for my child? There’s no way they can do it without. Otherwise she’s staying home.
I think many of the testing companies are now saying in public documents that PCR & LFT (whichever they are offering) should be used in conjunction with the onset of symptoms. The councils seem to be completely ignoring this, as do many of the schools. End of last year, a family acquaintance challenged their child’s school (after an entire year group was forced to isolate for one +ve result) for evidence that a swab test alone is proof of infection, & school significantly rolled down the testing rhetoric after that.
Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is man’s original virtue. It is through disobedience that progress has been made, through disobedience and through rebellion. O Wilde.
Nobody in this house has had any tests but I’m going to refuse testing on my 13 unless she has symptoms. My 10 and 13 year old know the whole thing is nonsense. I always say to them don’t ever think any of this stuff is normal. What scares me is they’ll invent a strain and try and make out it affects kids more. My five year old is autistic and really needs school but I would be scared to death giving them a vaccine that there is no long term data for. I honestly don’t know why people are queuing up for stuff that’s still in clinical trials, it scares me, what if there’s something wrong with it?
I have already seen reports (I can’t remember where – possibly Israel) about more kids being “infected” with these different strains. “What if there’s something wrong with it” – precisely – don’t be the one to find out first! Best of luck to you – stay strong.
Definitely a change in the wind as far as the MSM is convcerned. I posted a coment this morning oposition of the hospitaliy industry to vaccine passports, pointing out the the Pfizer vaccine had already been reported as being responsible for nearly 150 “fatal incidents” (I didn’t use the word deaths deliberately), and 60,000 adverse reactions in 30,000 people.
Last week, that comment would never have got past their moderators.
The censors probably didn’t understand the phrase you used.
Ai is still quite dumb.
I received an email from the branch secretary of the bellringers today (they are all ultra-bedwetters unfortunately, so I am unlikely to ever ring again.)
I am sorry to pass on the sad news that …….. of Chalfont St Giles died in hospital (partly from Covid) on the 12th February aged 95
Partly from Covid? Please.
Saw a woman I know slightly who works at a nursery – she told me 50% of the children attending have been referred for speech therapy.
So without Covid, Bedwetter Bellringer would be only partly dead?
Spot on, Annie.
My ex was dead from the waist down, and I have several friends who are dead from the neck up! Being partially dead happens!
Partly from covid! That made me laugh out loud.
Regarding speech therapists – one attends a local school. They wear a mask during sessions. I kid you not!
maybe covid segments the body. “x died of old age and pneumonia but his arse was riddled with covid”
Also i was chatting with someone who is a early needs trained assistant to a class of 4 year olds. Some are there as key worker children .But a number have been accepted back purely because they have been unteachable zooming from home. At least they are not masked in school
So sad the negative impact on children affecting their development. On a lighter note, it feels as if I could do with speech therapy
“Tan and colleagues1 showed that cortisol concentrations in patients with COVID-19 were significantly higher than in those without COVID-19. However, disease severity scores (eg, APACHE II, SOFA) of the two groups were not reported. The remarkably high levels of C-reactive protein in the COVID-19 group (median 117·8 mg/L [IQR 58·2–180·4]) compared with the non-COVID-19 group (42·0 mg/L [9·5–123·5]) highlights that the patients with COVID-19 were more severely ill than their counterparts”
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/landia/article/PIIS2213-8587(20)30304-1/fulltext
If it saves one life etc.
From this I would say that no matter what, make sure to work hard on your mental wellbeing. It’s you last safe house when things get hard.
So if you deliberately enter into a campaign of scaring a good chunk of the population out of their wits as the Government, Government ‘scientists’ and mainstream media have been doing, and through implementing lockdowns you cause significant stress and mental health deterioration in the population, you cause extra deaths not just from suicides.
Every time I hear “super spreader” I think of Kamala Harris
I think police.

Is anyone else having problems posting today? I have tried several times to post a not particularly long comment but nothing happens. I tried cutting it into 2 short comments but still nothing. I re-started the computer – same result. When I posted ‘test’ it worked. Any ideas? MW
I had something similar I think. I press post comment and nothing apparently happens. When I press it again I get a message “Duplicate comment”. So i copy my test just in case and refresh the page, and the comment is there. Not sure if that’s the same thing as you got though. PS it happened with this comment too!
Thanks, but that’s not what happens. There is something in my comment the system doesn’t like but I can’t for the life of me think what it might be. It’s not even one of my slag-off-ATL specials! MW
any links? — maybe stating the bleeding obvious as you have been on here for a long time!!

Thanks. I have no idea what happened. I tried everything I could think of but eventually posted it as two separate ‘topics’ and slightly changed the wording e.g. substituted ‘another’ for ‘new’ and it worked. I can only assume it was a software glitch rather than some sinister censorship (which I don’t think happens here and anyway there was nothing that LSs would object to in it.) MW

Great article reviewing LFTs in the Lancet – tweeted by Prof Heneghan
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00425-6/fulltext#.YC5vcPbyR20.twitter
“Most people infected with SARS-CoV-2 are contagious for 4–8 days.
Specimens are generally not found to contain culture-positive (potentially contagious) virus beyond day 9 after the onset of symptoms, with most transmission occurring before day 5.This timing fits with the observed patterns of virus transmission (usually 2 days before to 5 days after symptom onset), which led public health agencies to recommend a 10-day isolation period.The short window of transmissibility contrasts with a median 22–33 days of PCR positivity (longer with severe infections and somewhat shorter among asymptomatic individuals).
This suggests that 50–75% of the time an individual is PCR positive, they are likely to be post-infectious.”
So is this supporting ‘asymptomatic transmission’? MW
This is by far the biggest story of the day and I’m surprised it hasn’t garnered more attention from people on here.
The Lancet is suggesting that most “cases” as defined by a positive PCR test, were actually post infectious and recovered people. Think about what that means, even the terrorised and brainwashed might begin to see through the lies with this information.
You no doubt recall last Autumn a number of major cities took their turns at being locked down on the basis of high PCR positives. Leicester, Manchester, Liverpool etc.
In every case the PCR “cases” were high but starting to fall by the time government locked them down. What this new information suggests is that in reality the disease had largely swept though those cities already, those high “case” numbers were mainly post infectious and recovered people.
So we didn’t so much shut the stable door after the horse had bolted, we spunked hundreds of billions of pounds on installing a state of the art titanium door after the horse had bolted.
That’s before we even get to the idea of individual liberty and locking down a population once the disease has almost passed through.
This tallies with what happened in those cities after lockdown too. You may recall much pearl clutching and lamenting about the wave of death that would inevitably sweep Leicester that Autumn. Of course when no such thing happened because it was already on the road to recovery, it got silently dropped from the news in favour of the next scare story.
Our >100,000 death toll consists of people who tested positive within the prior 28 days. How many of them had in reality beaten Covid based on this Lancet article? Quite a lot it would seem…
The truth is starting to leak out like shit from a toddler’s nappy at soft play. And it stinks.

For many years we have been members of the Consumers’ Association, best known for publishing Which. The greatest consumer issue I have known in my lifetime is that created by the Government in their reaction to Covid 19. Shopping, where you can do it, has become a miserable chore and there is carnage on the High Street, while most service suppliers are struggling to survive. What has been the reaction from Which? – unquestioning acceptance of all Government measures. The latest issue features a masked zombie on the front cover; enough is enough – subscription cancelled.
Which face knickers, eh?
And Which vaccine is best? .. You would assume they would have road tested all of them.
Good!
Have no time for Which. A few years ago they had a witch hunt on nutritionists and then appointed an advisory committee full of medical doctors that has no training in nutrition, only drugs
Some years ago they had an offer of a free “Which Computer” publication. It involved registering for a general Which subscription which, however, you could cancel if you didn’t want it. Something like that, anyway, I may have got the details wrong. It turned out that I had to be quite assertive on the phone to get the cancellation done. And I never got the computer guide. Bastards.

Far better than quarantine. In jail you are entitled to exercise periods outside your cell, solitary confinement is strictly limited, and you don’t pay the bill.

Well the council aren’t anticipating any normality in the near future, though they do seem to think there might actually be an election:
Polling stations – what to expectIf you would like to vote at your local polling station on 6 May 2021, please know that we’re putting all the right measures in place to protect voters and staff from any potential spread of COVID-19:
We’re also employing additional staff to help voters and they will all be wearing the relevant Personal Protective Equipment.
If you have symptoms or are self-isolatingIf you have COVID-19 symptoms, have tested positive or have been identified as a contact of someone who has, please do not visit a polling station on 6 May 2021 to vote if you have not completed your required period of self-isolation.
Contact our Elections Team as soon as possible so we can make arrangements for you to vote in the safest way possible.
Notwithstanding that masks don’t work, and hand sanitisers cause all sorts of problems etc, why on earth would they contemplate such nonsense measures for a seasonal virus which by May will be well into retreat once again.
It finished last May as a pandemic; now it is endemic.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7377982/
Figure 1 in that article agrees with you.
By May the vast majority in hospital with a positive test weren’t being treated for covid
It’s a cold (if that) for most people
an extra cold per year OMG how on earth will civilization cope
unfortunately elections no longer work. politics is like the final scene from the Animal Farm animation where the pigs and the humans now look exactly the same to the rest of the animals.
so unless the ballot paper includes a “none of the above” option i will stay in bed
Just spoil your ballot paper.
I will unless there is an anti lockdown party to vote for.
Tell them no-one needs ‘medical’ exemption and if they ask you twice they are committing a crime under the 1997 Harassment Act.
I think queues are unlikely. Lowest turn out ever certain and most of those will be postal voting sheep.

Employment law I think states an employee is under no obligation to sign a new contract with changed terms and conditions. If employed for over 2 years it would be seen as constructive dismissal?
Is the word “new” the key, does he know he cannot change existing contracts unless the employee agrees (as per above)?
If people are willing to accept illegal contract they are willing to abandon the principle of law in their own life.
Regardless that life is founded in and of the laws of cause and effect, balance and exchange.
Precisely – he admitted as much on talk radio a while back – just virus signalling to get more business from the old and vulnerable at enhanced rates no doubt – look, we have your safety front and centre.
He has to pay for his flashy blue Bentley somehow
I meant virtue signalling, but what I wrote may be more apt
There’s something in this. As long as its for CHARITY – people will suspend inhibition as if granted freedom to act as the signal of virtue.
Many would crawl naked across the snow for the exhilaration and experience within a social permission slip.
But taking the clickbait away, the device being used to mould opinion and behaviour is a coercion and deceit. The deceiver is nothing new to the human experience. Masking in deceit is nothing new either, but when we have to change masking out in the open, the whole things shows up as Fear running the Control that says it makes you safe from the Fear.
His views are as plastic as his face (C4 news) last night.
He’s getting a lot of free publicity for his company isn’t he?
We’ll see if he really does it. At the moment he’s getting a not insubstantial amount of TV airtime for free. Cynical perhaps? nah!
Pimlico Plumbers are a total joke. The most famous employment litigation case involves them. I have no doubt they will be seen in court again off the back of this.
IF we get through this, we’ll make the bastard a fucking pauper. I would LOVE to take away the property of those who were a part of this.
And here he is again:
A third dose of coronavirus vaccine may be needed to prevent serious cases of new variants of the disease, Bill Gates said Tuesday.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-vaccine-variants-third-shot-bill-gates/
By locking down safely in your own home, you can be permanently fitted and connected to a drip of medication and management.
Inside the Gates of hell is nothing to fear, because fear becomes the Guide and Protector of a new normal by which to be dispossessed and accept happiness as the total vigilance to make you safe! All unconscious bias to love will be immunised against and eradicated.
Together, we can genetically redeem the stock.
In other words, you are supposed to see Gates and co are taking everyone for all that they are willing to give him. Give him your body and its genetic potentials and see if he cant hack your future as the virus at the dark heart of a web of lies given logical and systemic extension.
In the theme of song titles ‘Careful with the axe, Eugene’ (Pink Floyd) – along with ‘Welcome to the Machine’.
However the signpost does not have to be followed, but Gates and co can help you recognise who and what you are not, so as to drop it as meaningful or useful to use or make anything of.
Yes I made a parody – but it is already a parody.
As many are saying; ‘you couldn’t make it up!’
But we did.
Don’t bother with Pink Floyd: that moron Roger Waters is totally for the lockdown and praises that stupid cunt AOC.
That guy is a complete moron
I followed the link to Dr Malcolm Kendrick and read in a measured and qualified short piece the ongoing summary – nothing significantly unusual going on in terms of death by all causes.
I responded in a comment noting ‘Much Ado about Nothing – but it became
https://willingness-to-listen.blogspot.com/2021/02/how-deadly-is-fear-given-power.html
as the condensation of :
How deadly is the active and funded belief into which almost all other fears and conflicts are repackaged or subordinated to?
If you can see that the ability to manipulate the worlds, meanings and definitions on which we base our sense of self and world, is very much at the bottom of this then you may be interested in my comment.
There are days i’m in total admiration of the Covid-19 fraud! To choose the one group you know will meet all expectations, the elderly, a certainty to die at any moment from causes impossible to verify or can be misdiagnosed due to comorbidities (old age), in environments so easily manipulated to increase or decrease death rates.
Collusion on testing methods of a disease that can’t be proved exists & that shares the symptoms of almost all & any other common respiratory disease, every winter, using testing methods that can switch off infection rates (cases) like a tap. Mitigation measures a self-fulfilling prophecy, reducing care capacity, reinforcing Draconian controls.
Its ingenious, with a little embellishment of established science, introducing asymptomatic transmission to induce fear of the invisible, social measures to create fear of fresh air & contact with others, keeping people in the most harmful conditions to prevent natural & free benefits of priming your immune system with low level exposure to pathogens & denying your bodily vitamin D. All slowing down natural herd immunity of any & all seasonal respiratory diseases.
Introducing a treatment (“vaccine”) that doesn’t do quite enough to end any government control but encourages complicity of the public. All driven by an army of non science scientists who among them are communists, anthropologists & career failures infamous for always getting it wrong. Every single one of which as an obligation to the state, has signed the official secrets act, but is allowed to freely leak information to MSM without a single sanction daily.
Then I remember the sheer number of coincidences makes it statistically impossible for them to be coincidence, the blatant misinformation, misdirection, obfuscation, lies & more lies, junk science, propaganda & out right corruption shakes me back to the reality, of what an incredible fraud Covid-19 is. Despite the evidence & the glaring contradictions a fanatical minority of frightened cowards’ boy up a totally fascistic government plot to destroy the fabric of our culture & country!
Through bullying, harassment defamation & criminality they still maintain a minority of infantilized followers willing to swallow this incredible plausibility! If I wrote a novel with this story line, people would say you couldn’t make it up, BUT they did! A brilliant conspiracy, coercing stupid lemmings to jump off the cliff.
Excellent summation and so dangerously and sadly true.
yes, you have to give the devil his due, don’t you. and right now the victims are looking so depicable and unlikeable that you can practically see his point of view.
Fantastic summary.Thankyou
This is the most profound, forward-thinking piece of writing I have ever read…
It should be prescribed reading for every human being. This is the only route out of this madness. Forget the fight and reconnect, in real life, with each other. Let’s organise a meeting point for 8th March… on humanitarian grounds!

Clapham Common 4pm on Monday 8th March – everyone walk around 2m apart… not breaking any law. Just our presence in numbers to make a point?

Too awkward for me to get to London during the working week. Will be there on 20th March though, for the protest.

Hamburg, Germany again doing post mortems. Just sad that the regional TV station cannot agree on the numbers conducted on their news website.
NDR has a general page covering all 4 countries, there it states 735 PM conducted. Go into the Hamburg section, it is only 618. It has been updated since then and they are now mentioning 735.
According to them 99% had underlying health conditions, the most common diabetes, high blood pressure, obese, lung conditions.
93% died of corona related pneumonia or blood clots. Blood thinners are routinely used to in Hamburg as part of treatments.
We will have to fully return to normal in order to sustain the birth rate, sooner rather than later. Otherwise no births = no future.
You can’t have dating AND face masks + social distancing!
As a singleton I totally concur.
Not confident it will happen though, instead the drive for more young people, will be used an argument for even further mass migration.
They intend to significantly reduce the population. Those left will be slaves.
We have just had a delivery from the local veg-shop, having sacked the ‘dandelions’ from Riverford who treated us like lepers. It was the elderly owner who we very soon talked into losing his stupid face-nappy. He told us that the lock-down has been great for their business. Their turnover was £3k per week before last March, now it’s £3k per day!!
We had a bit of a rant at him. He nodded along but it was clearly water off a duck’s back. He watches TV, listens to the radio, gets regularly fear-porned by his semi-hysterical son. He thinks he had ‘Covid’ in January 2020, along with half this area, including us. Unlike us, he thinks he caught it from the Chinese takeaway owner who had been in Hong Kong!
Despite this, he has had the Pfizer jab because ‘they rang up’. If they had rung up and told him they were going to shoot him in the head would he have gone? And some can’t understand why those people in the 1930s meekly queued-up to get into the cattle trucks! What the hell will it take to jolt these people out of their trance?
We have now watched/read several independent experts who are convinced that these jabs will result in serious illness for many in 3 – 6 months time. We know several people who have had one of them and nobody seems to have had any noticeable side-effects so far. Assuming these experts are right, the predicted huge increase in serious illness should tie in nicely with Ferguson’s otherwise risible ‘3rd wave’ model and Dr Billy’s announcement that we will all need a 3rd jab because of ‘mutations’. MW
It’s all planned. This March onwards to Summer is the LAST chance to reverse it.
We need Nuremberg 2 to specifically target all the local GPs school heads etc who willingly enforced the muzzles on children, given both the psychological harm and the boost in lung cancer.

Another day, another page from the SPI-B playbook. We’ve been threatened for a while with massive increased testing of the healthy despite even the WHO having moved away from ‘asymptomatic spread’. Maybe BJ and the crew want extra brownie-points from the bosses for being top of the tyrannical class.
Secondary children were an obvious target. You can only hope that they and their parents will take the piss (can we hope?) I note they’re also threatened with all-day face nappies as well. Most will comply, I expect, ensuring a nice increase in sickness false positives and more school/year-group closures. And more trashing of what passes for education. The already noted increase in teenage depression and even suicide will continue to mount but will anyone apart from their friends and families notice or even care? MW
The Science indicates that a noose can improve the effectiveness of a face covering by over 90%.
I managed to post it this time. For some reason, the LS system didn’t like ‘New day’. When I changed the wording to ‘another’, the post was accepted. Weird! MW
Story from the AP:
https://hosted.ap.org/thetimes-tribune/article/7a8e8908a0d68da784d1335b3bd6ead8/crippling-weather-hampers-vaccine-deliveries-distribution
Having vaccine centers take snow days is just going to back things up more than they already are,” said Dr. Amesh Adalja, senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. “The virus doesn’t take snow days.”
Adalja said people in charge of vaccination efforts must find ways to be more resilient to weather, “just like mailmen can deliver the mail through sleet or snow.” He suggested clinics use better contingency plans. The goal, he said, must be “a continuous assembly line of vaccines going into people’s arms.”
The last line kills me. We are not considered human beings anymore. I notice this wording of “vaccines into arms” everywhere. The intent, I think, is to obscure the fact that the vaccine will go into and affect your whole body.
So they want old frail vulnerable people to go out in bad weather where a fall will likely end up in a hospital visit?
of course they do! another death,[once the National Horror Service gets its hands on them] another fake covid stat, another useless eater removed from the planet, what’s not to like?
no snow days for the agenda. not surprised, as it is John Hopkins.
Isn’t it curious how the current zeitgeist is simply, “Vax Uber alles?”
I don’t think there’s ever been such a monomaniacal focus on on anything, ever.
And reading my local paper, you’d think there’s not one person in the world against it.
Surely closing the centres for snow days are perfectly reasonable because the frail and the vulnerable will mostly have more sense than to venture out in weather that’s essentially dangerous for them and the centres will have no customers.
Frontline admin would know that.
You can see why Pantsdown didn’t think to add seasonality to his dodgy model.
On the other hand, you can’t educate pork: Fran Goldman, 90, of Seattle, told The Seattle Times she walked 6 miles (9.7 kilometers) round trip in the snow to get her vaccine.
The Mark of the Beast is here – Israel is to bar unvaccinated people from certain jobs and those who forge vaccination certificates will face jail time.https://www.rt.om/news/515939-israel-covid19-certificates-vaccination-green/
A horrible little nation. Maybe Biden will throw them to the wolves, they deserve it..
I imagine Biden’s controllers want to copy Israel.
Hard to say.
There are rumors Biden has yet to call Bibi, which, if true, is rather unusual for incoming Presidents regardless of party affiliation.
Kamala Harris is doing all the foreign leader calls apparently!
https://nypost.com/2021/02/16/kamala-harris-takes-foreign-calls-on-behalf-of-biden/
Looks like Rev 17:5 is ramping up her 25th Amendment play.
Shame, if she could wait until 2 years and one day of Basement Joe, the controllers could legally keep her in the White House for 10 years.
Biden may not know the precise function of his own limbs, let alone who Netanyahu is…
Biden hasn’t even called any of the state governors either, indicating the cabal don’t need him any more and are allowing him to lapse into senescence.
Jill probably said at breakfast “Don’t forget Bibi” at which point he tucked his bib under his chin before reaching for the marmalade on toast.
Biden’s controllers are the genocidal CCP and Iran so that seems unlikely.
You’ll be lucky . Biden answers to IsraHell
Insane anti-Semitism, Joe Xiden answers to CCP and Iran.
Peter Hitchens: In my old-left-wing days, we used to say that anti-Semitism was the ‘socialism of fools’. You can see why. It is an ideology of resentment, a belief in a class or group which exploits the masses and which has to be violently dispossessed. So is Bolshevism. makes sense.
strange, isn’t it…God’s chosen people, and they are in the front lines for Armageddon
Anti-Semitism certainly is strange.
The bastards have totally lost the plot. They think tinkering around the edges of public health bureaucracy is more important than restoring Democracy and a millennium’s worth of hard won personal freedoms. If that’s not important enough for an uprising of the people, then screw the people
there is a kind of justice in it, after all – supine cowardice and a cluelessness of the things that really matter deserve nothing less than to be utterly crushed and annihilated. but they will take their children down with them, who didn’t deserve that.

Good question!
David Kurten (Heritage) is the one to vote for if you’re anti lockdown. He has been rock solid from the start
Thanks!
He seems like a good man
He wears sharp suits though….he looks like an fluffer in a gay bangbang.

It appears the front line is your doorstep.I’m ready with my defences.

PandaCast | A Conversation with Knut Wittkowski
Thanks, Nick’s work is excellent, I’ll watch that later.
This is a must-watch! For those that don’t know Dr Knut Wittkowski is of course is one of the first professional lockdown sceptics.
What he’s basically saying here is enough to clap Boris in chains, lockdown not only slowed Covid-19 infection down effectively making it worse but is literally creating a more virile number of mutations, that may never have existed without mitigation measures. Lockdown is the cause of mutation!
We all knew that right, but he’s demonstrating it with scientific hypothesis.
The technocrats must be held accountable!
THAT is EXACTLY what he and Sunetra Gupta said AT THE BEGINNING, before the Great Barrington Declaration was even signed.
Nevermind whether there is truth in the coming technohorror about social cloud hookup and so on, THIS alone so far is a BIOTERROR CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY!
CUNTS!
One of the best interviews I’ve seen for months with a new perspective on vaccines & zero covid.
When asked his opinion on zero covid his reply, ‘once you have herd immunity, you have zero covid’.
Also, a fascinating alternative to vaccines, its best watched to understand
thescience involved.I notice a hospital is looking for volunteers who are healthy in the 18-30 age bracket, who are to be given a small amount of the Black Death in order to study its effects.
I don’t quite know what to make of this. It can be considered yet more evidence that the dread contagion is not dangerous to the young. On the other hand volunteers are being offered over 4,000 quid, which sounds like danger money.
I wouldn’t touch it with a bargepole. not that I’m scared of covid, which I don’t even believe exists, but I wouldn’t trust THEM- even if the volunteers are not their target, you would be unwittingly assisting them in some diabolical plan
Good point. How will researchers know that they’re giving them sars covi 2? It can’t be cultured right? I guess they’ll be getting whatever respiratory virus a sick person with a positive pcr has. Nothing could go wrong with that then. The size of the payment suggests a long residential stay.
How the hell do these people get ethical approval for things like this? I have to complete a 20-page form simply to interview a lying politician. Can’t be allowed to cause unnecessary ‘harm’ to the bastard, right? FFS!
I was wondering about that aspect, especially because of the propaganda over the last year and still visible on every street corner. Then you offer four grand to someone to try out a little of the elixir of death. Something is wrong with this picture…
I think £4000 might be standard for medical tests. I know a couple of people who have taken part in various trials (not recently) and this figure sounds familiar.
Ask those whose children are damaged from the Swine Flu vaccine how far THAT would go in compensation.
It isn’t a lot for risking your health and possibly your life.
Unless of course they are well aware there is no actual f****** risk!
its a depressing sight to visit the local garden centre, to wander around the plants in the sun and fresh air, and see everyone muzzled up, even the kids. Unless it becomes voluntary in any sort of outlet they won’t see me again.
I’ve just come back from our local one and had the same experience. At least two of the children were well under 11 and looking very bemused. At least no one jumped away from me!
just been to a log seller . Open sheds full of wood. web site says wear a mask . parked up. lady says mask.. i say we are outdoors. also exempt. She was masked . anyway chatted picked some bags of logs . exchanged cash at arms length. . all a bit over the top
Get your own fucking wood ready, or burn furniture, that cunt doesn’t deserve the business. Fuck her!
I cannot bear to see kids muzzled, if adults want to do it then have at it, it’s their decision no matter what I think, (I have never worn a mask and will not), but children, what the ever loving fuck!
Anyone else noticed that the new ‘symptoms’ being suggested as Covid are the most common side effects of the vaccine.
Get the vax > get a headache > get a test > you have covid > die > you died of covid.
And round and round and round it goes.
While quite. LS need to focus on this. Can you test positive for Covid if you’ve had the vaccine (Pfizer in particular I think) but are not infected with the virus? Yes or no. I think Dr John Lees suggested it was possible.
Let’s face it, you can test ‘positive’ for covid if you are a lump of rock just brought to Earth from Mars!
Today’s AIER podcast seems important to me. Incredible, no doubt posted earlier.
https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/american-institute-for-economic-research/id1475285499?i=1000509665127
Precis for those of us in a rush?
Linking decision in America to eject elderly from hospital directly to Gate’s research group. AIER are too serious for this not to be well researched. Only four mins.
The write up is here: https://www.aier.org/article/anatomy-of-the-nursing-home-death-warrants/
The common thread seen in the United States is the delegation of state policy to prediction modeling forecasts from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), a Washington State-based institution that is wholly controlled and funded (to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars) by The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
In March and early April, politicians were informed by the modeling “experts” at Gates-funded IHME that their hospitals were about to be completely overrun by coronavirus patients. Modelers from IHME claimed this massive surge would cause hospitals to run out of lifesaving equipment in a matter of days, not weeks or months. Time was of the essence, and now was the time for rapid decision making, the modelers claimed.
On two separate April 1 and April 2 press conferences, Cuomo made clear that his policy decisions were based off of the IHME model.
“There is a group that is funded by the Gates Foundation. Thank you very much Bill Gates,” Cuomo said on April 1 in discussing ICU needs and how he was using Gates models to make other healthcare policy decisions.
“There’s only one model that we look at that has the number of projected deaths which is the IHME model which is funded by the Gates Foundation,” Cuomo said on April 2, adding, “and we thank the Gates Foundation for the national service that they’ve done.”
And the Gates foundation bankrolls Ferguson’s mob at Imperial. Same result.
This is the actual document that was put out by the NY Department of Health after advice from the IHME.
Note the underlined section regarding the rights of homes to decline patients (or lack of rights).
Source: https://dossier.substack.com/p/how-the-gates-foundation-seeded-americas
This has to be spread everywhere.
NIMH it’s called I think. As pressure on Cuomo increases he’ll only have one option but to pass the buck. A chink of light.
There is also this. The Wuhan lab leak won’t go away

Few observations from a trip into town today.
Firstly, car is due it’s MOT tomorrow (I know that there will be no nonsense there) so I thought I’d treat it to a car wash. Normally you’d get a guy give you a pre-wash pressure wash and brush but that’s now not allowed “due covid”. Still, at least they still take cash and no mask nonsense.
Next off to get a new tyre – local independent, completely normal. Could’ve been 2019. When I paid I asked if he wanted card or cash and he said card because many more people had been paying in cash and he had too much!
Hundred of people out and about enjoying the sunshine, going about their business. Only saw a handful wearing masks, exclusively the terrified elderly or virtue signalling youngsters. Even got stuck in a mini-traffic jam! The wheels are definitely coming off this lockdown, come the spring and decent warm weather it’ll be up blocks like a covid marshal’s car.
In other news, reading through Mail Online over lunch comments massively in favour of sceptical views. I think we’re winning.
Hopefully.
Hopefully but I’m disappointed how many people have believed the psy-ops, especially well-educated ones.
If anyone still dares use the words ‘stay safe’ I respond ‘stay sane’.
MailOnLine comments are hard to fathom. Sometimes I get hopeful but sometimes not. For instance, last summer, the suggestion to stop working from home were always met by howls of protest. I would guess that many want lockdown to continue indefinitely purely because they do not want to resume their normal working regimes rather than any genuine fear of Covid. I personally know several people with this view.
What are they doing to our children?

A must watch – the impact of school closures on children
Closed schools = child abuse
Well, if they take the vaccines they will either die or become seriously damaged with lifelong issues. Then the real fun starts with the nanotechnologies.
I despair of this country. Lockdowns, masks, vaccines, health passports, Covid Marshals, testing, Track & Trace and all the nasty, self centred, hysterical, narcissistic, hypochondriacs and sheeple promoting it, supporting it and shouting for more. I don’t know what’s worse, that the conspiracy theorists are right or that this utter immoral insane dystopian world can occur naturally.
The pub bosses have stormed out of a meeting with ministers. I’m surprised they closed down the 2nd time after spending thousands making places ‘safe’. The comments on the DM are a disgrace from the government bots.
The comments on the Quarantine Hotels do seem out of whack with comments on other articles. For example the comments on the pub bosses walking out of their meeting article in the Mailonline are overwhelmingly hostile to the concept of vaccines and vaccine passports etc
‘Angry pub bosses ‘STORM OUT of meeting with ministers’ over reopening plans as vaccine passports deemed ‘unworkable’ with drinkers in their 20s unable to get jabs until later this year’
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9273521/Vaccine-passports-branded-unworkable-help-save-struggling-pubs-clubs.html
What really annoys me is it is not about pubs saying lockdown needs to go, it is the acceptance without any fuss about vaccine passports, the complaint is it won’t work because the over 20’s will not be vaccinated until the end of the year. When is any business actually going to come out and say no vaccine passports, return to normal. If someone wants to go into a pub they can to eat or drink, inside or out with no social distancing, no muzzles and no passport to say they can.
When is any business actually going to come out and say no to vaccine passports as they are immoral?!
It’s almost like vaccine passports are a given and they are arguing about practicalities.
The comments are excellent though.
They have only one option then, don’t they? The one that was always there. It is still not too late but they really need to do it now, not just leave it to the occasional brave cafe owner, hairdresser or gym owner.
Dave Cullen (‘Computing Forever’) often says that if you give in to bullies they will just demand more from you. It has never been truer than now. MW
Well I sent tehri trade body teh FOI about social distancinga nd guidelines being non-enforceable and do not ahve to be followed and are non-enforceable but unsurprisingly no acknowledgement (nor from Wetherspoons) so it’s their own fault for not standing up sooner.
All the ammo they need is in the public domain.
Just read that one too, a lot of the comments do seem to be from paid bots, all with the same rhetoric
Yeah. No way the comments are real. Most articles on the DM tend to have comments slamming the regime, not supporting it.
In fact the whole damn article could be ‘bots’ – fake escape staged for DM to ‘report’ with loads of bot comments ready to go? Stranger things and all that.
Psyops propaganda.
That’s the article I just read that prompted my rant (posted same comment there but doubt it will get past the moderators).
On the majority of yesterday’s DM articles I observed that the comments were overwhelmingly sceptical so maybe it’s just a blip on that article…..or 77th?
It appears most of the human race are just fine existing as two-legged livestock.
Maybe the Georgia Guidestones do have the right idea.
Don’t think so: look at the protests in Austria and Italy. Plus, German protests though Sucharit Bhakdi seemed depressed at the German situation.
Britain has always been a bunch of smug losers who think they are still a major power and somehow better than any other country. This was true at a certain time: Britain’s contribution to civilisation was incomparable. But now it’s a dump. Pathetic Brits couldn’t even look each other in the eye before lockdown. Bunch of nervous nelly wanbots.
Fedup-
I pray you are correct.
It’s all jellyfish and pod people in my part of the US.
My personal work situation also has me a bit despondent.
I thought the situation was much better in the United States. That over half the country thought it was all nonsense. I always thought the United States was the only hope, ironically given Fauci and Gates et al are from there.
Could this be karma for all the acquisitiveness, industry and technology we exported to the world and they took it on and sold it back to us better and cheaper. Plus this mythic Blitz spirit, as Britain won the war despite the best efforts of the bureaucrats, defeatists,profiteers,and bigots and blackmarketeering, …Bless!,
I don’t give a shit anymore, any friends or family promoting or agreeing to this soul destroying mess will be told where to go.
You should try to persuade them first. Have you done so?
And just to put the bloody tin hat on it all, you’ve got RLB for an MP.
Yes indeed. Life’s a bitch and so is she. Needless to say I didn’t vote for her.
never mind, you can take comfort in the knowledge that they are all going to die soon, and see all their loved ones die (leaving aside the fact for the moment that so are we) – but it brings back the point that there is some ‘rough justice’ in what is about to unfold
Lovely afternoon round my way
Been for a walk around the common – people everywhere, young and old, families and groups, friends, bikes, kids in the playground. All pretty normal looking, no swerving, only masks I saw were on police
There’s an appetite for life – just need to harness it
Sun out and blue skies here too. On my lunchtime walk only had one Covidian – spotted her two hundred yards off and could just tell. Left her plenty of room on the pavement when she passed but she crab-walked and cringed into someone’s driveway as she passed me. Other than that fine.
I agree. That is why the issue is turning to VACCINES. THAT is the point.
They have ALL BEHAVIOUR monitored and PLANNED.
Question is: are we anti-lockdown OR anti being held hostage to experimental gene therapy ?
Lockdowns are the VESSEL, Big Pharma Therapies are the RAISON D’ETRE.
I think in general here we are anti both of those things, for many reasons, not the least of which is that the vaccine will probably enable governments to get away with this absurd, evil nonsense without having been held to account or found
I’m sure the Pharma companies are happy, but I don’t think governments are motivated primarily by that, though I am sure it is a factor. I think the main thing is that governing by fear gives you immense, easy power and not much accountability, and the chance to look like a saviour – what average politician would not want those things, having seen the genie come out of the bottle?
definitely anti vaccine here

Once more, let’s hear from the experts all the reasons why masks don’t work:

And why we don’t need a vaccine for the whole world.

And let’s hear it again from Professors Wittery and Thingy who explained to us last May why a vaccine just isn’t necessary:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Quelle surprise.
Time for another new killer variant.
And right on cue there is one from (drum roll) FINLAND…
Don’t tell me, one of the symptoms is a red nose?
NASA will probably bring back something from Mars that should fit the bill.

“Deaths in over-80s plummet as data suggests vaccines are working”
Or, as it’s more commonly known in this country… Winter is almost over.
There is that.
Exactly!
I expect all of the death’s door vulnerable ones have been bumped off by jabs already.
A paramedic in Germany described the treatment -or not- he received from his GP and other GPs for seeking help after developing severe “side effects”, namely paralysis of the side of body where he was vaccinated with AZ.
GPs refused to see him. His employer very helpful, arranged for him to be examined in University clinic, which he cannot fault at all, they prodded and tested him for 10 hours and it is ongoing.
All he needed was a GP’s letter and authorisation for taxi fare to hospital. Apparently he finally managed to get into the building, just to be insulted by receptionist and doctor. Doctor mentioned his name and reason for visit on the street around waiting patients.
Comments under his YT channel are vile, a lot of people are like, serves you right for taking vaccine.
I recommended to forward his story to Corona ausschuss.
Luckily he is slowly getting better and will complain to authorities about GPs.
After first examination they are unsure if the vaccine triggered an underlying central nervous system illness or it is an acute inflammation as result of vaccine.
I am not sure, but I believe the Germans did not introduce a law like Britain which gives vaccinators immunity, so he could sue the doctor who gave it to him at a vaccination centre. When he contacted them to tell them about his symptoms, they said it is none of their business.

Just seen another twat swerver from my front door.
Gender: Female
Age: early thirties
Mask status: Unmasked (yes, really!)
Did the crab walk (with face almost buried in hedge) to avoid two little kiddies passing her on the pavement. Kids couldn’t have been more than 8 years old.
Brain status: Missing
Hilarious! ‘twat swerver’, that made me laugh so much! I’ve seen my share of them over the months.

We need to follow up with this sort of action here clearly
hear hear!
Just reading about the guy protesting from his “hotel” incarceration.
He is locked in a room and masked guards physically restrain him from leaving. Yet, when you look at the average comments in the main news outlets, they are all either mocking him or insulting him.
I continue to find it utterly astonishing how selective people can be, allowing illegal things to be, simply because they chime with their current belief system.
if you put aside Covid, an innocent, presumably healthy father is being locked in a room and prevented from leaving. That is the simple fact. Now, that can be something you think is warranted or not, but it does not change the fact that it is detention against his will.
I would imagine that most of the very same woke people applauding this, were, just a few years ago denouncing extraordinary renditions of terror suspects to Guantanamo without trial as illegal. And they’d be right. It doesn’t make it ok just because you like the end point.
What horrifies me is them having to pay for the BS, and apparently the food delivered to the door is airline flight meal-type stuff. If I was being locked up and they made me pay for it I would insist on top-quality cuisine and a magnum of champagne.
I think the thing to do would be a ten day hunger strike. If a large number of people did that it might make people think.
It would suggest some degree of politicisation, and perhaps what I would do in their shoes (I was abroad when this quarantine was mooted and thought I might be affected, but was not in the end).
I don’t know if they would be up for challenging it in the courts but they might have a case for it being false imprisonment. But the human rights lawyers seem to be on holiday during this thing…
A dirty protest like jimmy Boyle would do the trick
What happens if someone defaults on the cost, not a British national then returns to their own country?
No idea. Probably an admin nightmare. In fact it all is…
We pay.
I think that article has been produced in the form of the 2 minutes hate. When there is no moderation especially at night comments are overwhelmingly sceptical. Yesterday they removed all the over night comments criticising a govt policy.
In the day the comments are moderated and probably infiltrated by Integrity Initiative or the 77th or both. Add the JTrig bot the responses and they get the effect they want. Criticising someone calling out this obviously inhumane incarceration.
This will then give the lie to the proles that people are onboard with this bs.
Can anyone explain why we would want to test people who are plainly not ill?
For some reason or other the government and/or SAGE and their equivalents around the world want the “emergency” to continue forever
Trying to look for logical public health justifications for any of the actions taken is futile – it’s all theatre
They DGAF about whether any of it actually WORKS, it’s all about how it plays with the public and whether it keeps the narrative going
I am really beginning to think there is some kind of DNA harvesting going on.
They haven’t got mine.
Thankfully not mine either.
Control.
Hi all – is there any evidence out there to support the idea of asymptomatic spreading? I have just received an email from my uni telling us that ‘each and every one of us’ needs to get tested regularly due to asymptomatic people still being able to transmit the virus. I know of that study in China which showed no evidence of this but just wanted to know about any supporting evidence in case I am rebutted in the email I’m about to write? (Any further evidence to dismiss the idea is welcome though!) Thanks.
I saved this at the time:
Asymptomatic spread of coronavirus is ‘very rare,’ WHO says
Published Mon, Jun 8 2020
“From the data we have, it still seems to be rare that an asymptomatic person actually transmits onward to a secondary individual,” Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, head of WHO’s emerging diseases and zoonosis unit, said at a news briefing from the United Nations agency’s Geneva headquarters. “It’s very rare.”
“We have a number of reports from countries who are doing very detailed contact tracing,” she said. “They’re following asymptomatic cases. They’re following contacts. And they’re not finding secondary transmission onward. It’s very rare.”
If asymptomatic spread proves to not be a main driver of coronavirus transmission, the policy implications could be tremendous.
Retracted the next day, apparently.
I also found this that I saved. What is said at the 7-minute point with a link to a report is probably interesting….
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7tJh7D4w-U
Demand the university provide you with evidence of asymptomatic spread. They can’t as there isn’t any.
That’s my plan!
There is the big Wuhan study – look on covid-context.com
There is a link to the full study on nature.com
Wordy but the biggest survey – maybe not that truthful but helpful for your cause?

BMJ: much of the testing on students is completely inaccurate:
https://www.bmj.com/content/371/bmj.m4941
Also, Isabel Oliver (PHE Dir. of the National Infection Service) said last year that they have no way of proving where people caught covid-19. Any suggestions that people definitely must have got it from a certain person or place, eg. guy in a Supermarket, would therefore be “inaccurate” she said.
You do not consent to testing in a non-clinical setting when you have no symptoms. Any test needs your consent. And you cannot be denied any of your basic rights for refusing a test. They are nasty bullies. Stand your ground.
https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2774102
“New JAMA meta-analysis of 54 studies with 77,758 participants finds household secondary attack rate (chance an infected person will infect one or more people at home) is 18% if the index case is symptomatic and 0.7% if asymptomatic.” “Asymptomatic spread is so rare that it only happens 0.7% of the time even in households Asymptomatic spread is one of the main justifications of mask mandates for the general public There will be no acknowledgement that 1) masks failed 2) they were unnecessary to begin with”
And a more recent paper – https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33484843/
they made it up to justify all their stupid restrictions and most of all the need for masking everyone.
Why not just reply back and ask them for their evidence/study whatever to prove that it actually exists? Their risk assessment with all the details that they ‘must’ have done before requiring this. Pound to a pinch of shit they’ve done nothing.
Good idea!

Last pub in Britain closes for good
Pig Dictator announces “It’s another great day for Britain. It was a long haul but we got there in the end”
There is an advert in Scotland they show on tv and it it goes “stick with it Scotland we know it’s tough but there is some light on the horizon” Any time i hear it i get an adrenaline surge through my body that can’t be good for me. I despise this idea that i’m “Scotland”. This kind of bullshit makes your individuality a thing of the past. I’m not part of anything these government cunts want me to be. I want nothing but the total and utter destruction of government of any kind. I’m sick of them nd people who think we need them to live on this planet. My one life in this universe is ruined by cowards who can’t survive off their own efforts so they’ve got out humans to force other humans to do shit to make their life easier.It’s a sickness that most of those suffering from it don’t even know they’ve got it. A bit like the covid bullshit
I don’t whether Biker has changed or whether I have , but these days I find his contributions polite and restrained compared to how I feel about this whole business and the people gleefully destroying us.
I haven’t changed. I don’t post much anymore. What’s the point? I just go about my life best i can safe in my belief that this will all be over soon. Plus the weather has broken and the bikes are out the garage and back on the road and soon i’ll be back playing gigs in the pubs, clubs and festivals. They can’t do this for much longer. Here in Scotland it looks like they’ll sacrifice another year of tourists and that will be the final nail in Scotlands coffin. I’m glad for that.
Light on the horizon reminded me of this Half Man Half Biscuit classic tune!

But will we soon be seeing the Trumpton Riots?
I’ve just been shopping. Muzzle-free – and no problem personally. But I am SO disappointed and actually downright appalled that there seem to be no other muzzle-free shoppers INSIDE the shops. A good few take off their muzzles when they get outside.
Where is everyone who thinks as we do?
I’ve just been reading something from a London nurse who says she’s seen many more bacterial pneumonia cases than ever before – and they’ve been told to log them as ”covid” cases. And a doctor who says she has treated more bacterial pneumonia cases than ever – she believes this is due to people wearing masks all through the working day.
More pleurisy cases too due to mask wearing.
Pleurisy is a very very nasty, painful disease. I’ve had some. Feels like knives in the back.
It’s really awful.
Is there any documented proof of this claim about pleurisy? It was subject to fact checkers in August but we should have evidence of it now.
Yeah, I’ve had pleurisy twice and it is pretty unpleasant.
That’s quite specifically not a covid symptom
Will be soon.
I’ve never worn a mask, never been socially distant and continued to hang out with my friends. I pity those in a mask. I’m grateful for one thing though, i now know whom amongst all the people i know who are cowardly fascists and i can’t trust. Thankfully most people i know don’t buy this bullshit but there are some who’ve shown themselves and i won’t have anything more to do with them
I have noticed this too. Ever since there was that extra push for supermarkets to enforce mask wearing and all the door Nazis appeared I seem to have been the only person bar none without a mask, despite the fact some of those wearing them are clearly struggling to breathe.
History must surely call this era “The Madness”. The time the government outlawed breathing and the masses did their best to comply.
I haven’t been in shops anywhere near as much as in pre-muzzle days (which wasn’t much anyway) but only recall ever seeing TWO other un-nappied people in supermarkets, and ONE in an antiquarian shop. And this was before the supermarkets joined PHE in January. SNAFU.
If they think i’m gonna stick a cotton bud up my sons nose twice a week they’re fucking dreaming. What is this insanity? Fuck off Johnstone you utter cunt. Nearly a year into this bullshit and still they have their grubby corrupt hands round out throats. I will never forgive him for destroying my sons education.
Hear hear. I totally agree your views
i up-voted you agreeing with me to show how i agree with myself
I think that is how Sage works.
lol
I’ve upvoted you and Janet to show my solidarity.
Good one, Biker, right with you!!!
Perhaps a little hopeful but the reality of lockdown seems to be catching up with people,
Just sitting on the beach in Somerset. No masks, lots of families (some meetings of sorts too as people wave in cars next to them). Kites flying and car park fuller than I’ve seen it for months. People are voting with their feet here.
Also some interesting stuff from USA – CNN contract with capital “rioter”, Cuomo under investigation by FBI… this shitshow is in its decline. I can sense it too.
Nick Clegg (remember him), is working for facebook in some ‘strategic’ role and also features on this video. No wonder the UK is so successful in clamping down on anyone that asks questions
My town has just got covid wombles. No idea why, town is EMPTY.
“Covid marshals are patrolling West Berkshire, as the time is now right for their introduction.
From yesterday (Monday) six marshals will be working across the district, with a further two based at testing sites.
Speaking on their introduction at a meeting last night (Monday) Public Protection Partnership (PPP) manager, Sean Murphy, said that the marshals would operate seven days a week during daytime hours but this was likely to change once lockdown eased.
The marshals will be in place for an initial three-month period but Mr Murphy said the partnership would assess how that fitted with the changing local and national landscape.
He added: “The brief they have been given really is high streets but also public spaces, the parks, the commons.
“We’ve identified set event days in a sense, things like markets, so they’ve been asked to prioritise things like that, but also things like out of town shopping areas and the likes of supermarkets.”
The marshals have no enforcement powers but Mr Murphy said they would work closely with the police.
He said: “The role is to support the community, talking to the public, talking to businesses and to promote social distancing and face covering wearing.
“They will have a visible presence across the district. They are identified as West Berkshire marshals. They have no enforcement powers, that’s an important point because it’s about engaging the public.
“Primarily their role is to pick up issues that are not enforcement issues. There are a large number of those that come in to ourselves and the police where people raise concerns about specific areas, issues such as social distancing and things like that, that aren’t necessarily primarily enforcement issues – but they will work closely with those responsible for enforcement.”
Covid marshals were introduced late last year nationally to help enforce restrictions.
Calls for West Berkshire marshals were made in September “to help the community feel secure and help businesses stay secure”.
Asked why the marshals were being introduced now Mr Murphy said: “When the enforcement marshal scheme was first developed, a lot of the emphasis was around businesses.
“A lot of businesses were open and at that time we felt that our efforts were best-placed working with those businesses… to operate in a safe as possible manner in accordance with the law and the prevailing guidance.
“We see the timing as the right time in the sense that in the next few weeks, few months, hopefully restrictions will start to ease, and we do see the timing of bringing them in at this point will help a lot with that.”
“As spring comes and as people have had their first jabs… people are already feeling a little bit more optimistic, confident – things are starting to relax a little bit, so I think the Covid marshals will remind people that we’re not quite there yet.
“Also I think there’s a sort of reassurance of having people visibly there to talk to if you have got concerns.”
Mr Murphy said that there had “inevitably” been a small number of enforcement actions, primarily prohibition notices, handed to businesses.
He said they had been “businesses that were perhaps operating outside of the permitted operating hours or businesses that shouldn’t have been operating at all”.
“We’ve served prohibition notices requiring them to stop whatever particular activity it was they were doing,” he added.”
This is supported by the uber twatt that is the lib dem leader in our area.
Twats in hi-viz vests. Just tell them to fuck off.
Can’t wait to meet one. Guaranteed to be 100% morons.
And probably “overweight”
That is a given.
you made me think of FatPeopleHate, a much missed Reddit sub.
WTF –
“As spring comes and as people have had their first jabs… people are already feeling a little bit more optimistic, confident – things are starting to relax a little bit, so I think the Covid marshals will remind people that we’re not quite there yet.”
So now they’re feeling confident, we need to beat that shit out of them again
Calling Bruce Reynolds – we need a few tips?

I believe he is also doing good work with the PCR Claims people – saw something posted from their twitter feed yesterday. He’s still around!
Sent them the FOI saying they meant nothing but no answer from them.
Anyone got a contact e-mail for Mike Yeardon?
Does anybody else remember a SF writer of the 1960s/70s called John Christopher?
He wrote a trilogy for children called ‘The Tripods’. It concerns a future world that has been conquered by an alien race. The aliens permit humans to live in a sort of peaceful pseudo-medievalism. All adults are ‘capped’: as adolescents, they are fitted with a metal mesh that covers their heads and meshes with the flesh, so that it can never be removed. The Cap fixes them in n attitude of servile, unquestioning obedience to the aliens, whom they love and adore. Society is geared towards promoting Capping: the day you are Capped is a local festival, the vicar preaches a sermon about the joys of Cappedhood, and the local church rings the Capping Peal.
There is an underground resistance. They find out that the alien ‘Masters’, currently living in special domed cities, are preparing a Great Reset: they plan to adapt Earth to their own needs by changing the atmosphere, which unfortunately means that all humans will die. This doesn’t matter, however, because the Masters have some choice specimens preserved in museums.
Funny how foresighted SF writers so often are.
Oh, so they actually used the term Great Reset?
The technocrats get a lot of their ideas from sci fi .
No, actually.. Same idea, though.
Well Wancock got his plans from a Hollywood film so consistancy reigns!
I’ve read that, too, Annie. Some of the lesser known names in SF wrote some cracking stuff in the 50’s and 60’s.
There’s a series that was made a while back by Ridley Scott called “Prophets of Science Fiction” (can be found on YouTube). They featured a few of the better known Sci-fi names, e.g. Asimov, Dick, Verne, Wells. It is quite astonishing how much they got right.
My wife said to me the other night, “You’re always going on about your SF writers suggesting that euthanasia at a certain age will become the norm for the planet. Do you think this is what they are planning now?”
I replied, “I’ve been suggesting this to you for the whole 30+ years we’ve been married. Whether they are actually doing that now, I don’t know, but I do believe it is inevitable.”
Don’t remember that, but do remember the Peter Dickinson trilogy the Changes which was a brilliant children’s BBC series in the 70s. I reread the books a few years ago.
The Changes posits a Britain where a sudden enveloping noise emanating from all machinery and technology causes the population to destroy them. The resulting upheaval displaces many people and reverts society to a pre-industrial age where there is a deep suspicion of anyone who may be harbouring machinery. Even the words for technology are taboo. The remnants of modern technology that escape destruction (such as electricity pylons) produce a physical and sometimes violent repulsion among those left in Britain.

Thanks, I’ll look that up later on.
The true death numbers from Covid over the last year, just over 3,000, from official NHS statistics, people with no underlying health conditions. https://dailyexpose.co.uk/2021/02/17/investigation-nh
Just over 100 in Northern Ireland
https://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/new-figures-show-number-covid-19781110
Notice that 6% number again? I’m sure that’s the same for the UK and the US.
Turn it round; 94% of deaths marked as Covid were from people with one or more co-morbidities.
Also approx. 60% of fatalities were people who had disabilities.
400 billion debt last I heard, I can only shake my head so much at the damage done.
And just under half of those 3000 were over 80 years old.
Dear God, when will the truth ever be told to the masses?
But it is not a conspiracy, I really believe that. Now, where did I put that letter from the Docs about getting my Covid Jab?
Ha ha
Failed!!
Dicklord Starmer!
I know, so infantile…what can ya do?
But funny and true.
I am sure his eyes are saying “I wish it was real”.
Maybe that is why you always see him down on one knee?
Lol!
Mask with a dick on it, or…
Dick with a mask on it.
I cannot see a way forward, a future, for The Labour Party in the current political and cultural climate that they have helped so much to create. Any lacklustre policy they put forward has the stench of overthought, committee led failure about it.
Not to mention odious creepiness.
They do not want to win. Maybe Corbyn did but not the current creep.
GLOBAL GROUP HUG
Monday 8th March
4pm local
RIGHT… it’s ON!!
At 4pm local time, go outside and approach another human being and ask, “Would you like a hug?” If the answer is no, move on and ask someone else.
Time to rehumamise our world!
Transhumanism is not organic. It is anti-nature.
Talked to another customer lady today. Do I fix televisions…errr no but well lets have a lovely chat about covids shall we.
The lady says she hasn’t talked to anybody who thinks covid bollocks is a scam but she has thought herself that things aren’t right. I gave her me email and said I would be more than happy to send her stuff. Another possible convert….
Honestly the normies are waking up. They are very receptive to ideas they would have just dismissed as “conspiracy theory” or “tin foil hat stuff” this time last year.
They can see how all the conspiracy theory stuff is “coming true” right in front of their eyes, even if they have no idea what is going on. They can see it clearly now.
Let us at her!!!! Too soon maybe . . .
Working on it
Tell her a broken telly is a good thing to have at the moment.
I did say that. Well I asked her if it was something on the telly that made it get broken, but in all seriousness I said to her she was better off without a telly as everything on it about brainwashing people and it’s evil toxic poison.
I also said that I have “given up” telly 20 years ago.
Apparently she was moving house and dropped it on the stairs, a £700 HD TV…OOOh and this was the 2nd they had broken in a 6 week period so not covered by her insurance.
Ouch.
I have thought that – they always ask “But why would they lie?”.
My first answer is that without answering the why – isn’t it enough to start with that you can see the evidence and you know that they’re lying?
Se actually *admitted* to me that she had heard it was about stopping global warming….so the door was open.
yes – that’s the response I always get! every time! it’s as regular and predictable as Solzhenitsyn’s victims of the door being beaten down by the NKVD in the dead of the night: ‘but what have I done? I haven’t done anything!’ – there’s something so surreal about evil, people just can’t take it in
I’ve had a few people say that to me. Conversation tends to go:
“But why would they lie?”
“Are you telling me that you’ve gone through your whole adult life believing everything the government tells you?”
“Well, no, but this is serious.”
“Is it?”
“Well, people are dying; hundreds of thousands have died of Covid.”
“Have they? Says who?”
“The Government.”
“And you believe those numbers are real?”
“But why would they lie?”
And round and round and round it goes…
They lie to frighten people into being vaccinated with an experimental vaccine that’s making a few people a huge amount of money.
I would think that’s a good enough explanation.
I would too! But we’re different
Why would they lie?
Money. Power. Covering up their incompetence. Bribery. Corruption.
That tends to put them off unfortunately – they just shrug and frown and say ‘hmm – I don’t think so’
I’m not sure what the answer is that keeps them in the conversation when they dismiss all those things.
A good answer I find is that I have no idea why they are lying, although there are many theories.
All I know for sure is the data does not in any way support this response.
I black-pill everyone I talk to. I don’t care any more if they think I’m crazy. I consider it my duty. it’s the only form of resistance/sabotage I do.
Yer really. Everybody I talks to get the full monty, with variable levels of scare chucked in for good measure. I have made covidians literally go white a few times.
Obviously not in a race war kind of way, just a good old honest to goodness fear response.
LOL.
Well, if you tell them everything from the resetting of the financial system, the democidal aspects and the possible fact that people will be owned by a corporation as they are hooked up to a social credit cloud, at least, WERE it to happen, and I mean we HAVE to make sure it DOES NOT, at least they will understand a lot quicker once they’ve been programmed to hear it.
Thats pretty much what I tell them with a few extras thrown in if I don’t think they quite GET IT.
Above all, it’s good for yourself.
Agree.
To me the turning point was “jab granny and we’ll get back to normal” , suddenly they knew people testing positive after the jab and then dying or being very ill in their little bubble and parent’s or granny’s care homes and got told “still no return to normal” they finally asked what the fuck?
Don’t disagree. I also think that there are other things that you can add to the mix, such as pulling the plug on Christmas, the Boris bike ride, Wankcock playing footy in the park, the ban on holidays, the failure of getting kids back to school, experimentation on 6 year olds etc etc. The fat pig dictator and his farmyard chums have sown the wind. Hopefully they will reap the full force of the whirlwind. And I hope that will come none too soon.
Forgot to add the bit about Proturder (I think that we need a new name for these people) Edmunds saying ‘Masks would be forever’. In my book that amounts to mental cruelty.
Masks forever = humiliation and subjugation.
I think that is going to be the big problem for Governments worldwide. Once proved to have lied about this, the next question will be what else have they lied about.
I am a former public servant, a son and grandson of retired senior civil servants and also have caught one particular Government owned entity with its pants down (so to speak) on multiple occasions. It is no surprise that I trust little that emanates from Government and prefer to apply a policy towards the State of ‘guilty unless proven innocent’.
For those who don’t have my background (especially if they are in any way dependent on the State), it will come as a big shock to find out that the State in its various forms lies to them routinely and even regards it as the State’s duty to do so, to preserve the worldview that the State holds.
Hey, if we’re supposed to act like we’re sick until proven healthy I think it’s only right that we assume the government is corrupt until proven otherwise.
I think it’s less a matter of what they’ve lied about.
It’s more what they haven’t lied about.
Climate change.
Green New deal.
You live in a democracy.
Etc.
It’s impossible not to realise something very bad is going on.I think the announcement that lockdown won’t end until the cases are below 1000 and the fact that the vaccine will not end the restrictions should wake a lot of people up.
The failure to deliver on the promise that “Vakzine macht frei” will p*** people off enormously – agreed.
Unfortunately, I don’t think 1000 ‘cases’ impinges on most people’s reasoning. It’s just a big number devoid of context. Many people can’t equate a £10.00 note with 1000 pennies.
“We told you last week how the UK Government had released a report highlighting adverse reactions to both the Pfizer and Oxford / Astrazeneca vaccines. The report covered data inputted to the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme from the 9th December 2020 up to the 24th January 2021. Well the UK Government has since released a second edition of the report up to the 31st January 2021, and things have not improved.”
https://dailyexpose.co.uk/2021/02/14/think-the-oxford-jab-is-safe-adverse-reactions/
Even Canada is not prepared to green light the AstraZeneca vaccine yet and our population is irate that our “vaccine” rollout has been so slow (which is good news from my perspective).
I wonder how many whistleblowers, e.g. test centre workers, doctors, nurses, etc, have approached the papers and been told, “Not interested!”
They would not even have got a reply, I haven’t about some of the FOI answers I’ve received.
When it is obvious the tide has not just turned but gone out then the MSM will suddenly wake upa nd say “we knew all along blah blah blah”.
Yup! Like all the public who will also say, “I knew it was all bollocks; I just went along with it because…” Lots of us here know plenty like that.

This is Sky on the virus trials – volunteers being given the dread contagion on purpose.
What’s next up for them? Vaxx to see if it kills them with an ADE? They’re young they should pull through. Have another £4.5k and that’s a year’s tuition at Leper U. sorted.
But they say that the March 2020 version was ‘less dangerous’ than what we have now. If so, it sounds unlike most previous viruses in our history which have become more infectious and less deadly over time.
Mainstream media anchor in the US asks White House Senior advisor on Covid 19 why there is no difference in covid stats in States that lockdowned and those that didn’t. The guy totally fails to answer the question. Obviously the truth hurts. Worth watching to the end. ‘Vaccination’ , well least the first dose, doesn’t ‘set you free’ (or words to that effect) Sound familiar?
https://www.msnbc.com/stephanie-ruhle/watch/-it-s-going-to-require-more-patience-from-the-public-than-people-may-want-andy-slavitt-on-covid-cases-falling-101167685981
The guy has no answer because it’s now obvious that lockdowns are a political tool, not an epidemiological one.
Got it in one!
I’m stunned the MSM would put this question to this regime so soon.
Maybe some buyer’s regret is creeping in?
Oh you better believe there’s plenty of buyer’s regret indeed..
BREAKING NEWS (AGAIN) – Pope Francis set to join Pimlico Plumbers.
Charlie Mullins, owner of Pimlico Plumbers welcomed Pope Francis to his team today saying: “Frank’s a great bloke. He’s gonna need a bitta trainin’ but the good news is that he’s already vaxxed up and he’s pretty good with big spanners. He’ll also be helping us go green, whatever that means.”
Speaking from the Vatican Pope Francis said: “It is never too late to make a career move and I’ve always enjoyed the challenge of flowing water. And let’s face it, with all this social distancing malarkey, the whole god thing is done for. I look forward to working with Charlie and his vaccinaires”.
You are Cecil B and I claim my £5.
No – we are separate beings – I did offer to shack up with him, but he said he was too old for that sort of thing. Shame.
Yes, but will he be able to pass the ‘crawling naked through snow test’ ( see earlier post).
That could be tricky for Frank given his age. What a total wanker Mullins is.
He’s certainly proof that the old saying, “no such thing as bad publicity”, isn’t true.
I imagine a lot of people who would think, “What a tosser, I’m not going to him.”
The ‘Holy’ Father is a CUNT and I would say it any Catholic’s face. He is of an extremely malicious and antichristian type.
Testing children, that’ll bump the numbers up, keep the kettle boiling into early summer, justify more lockdown sanctions..cynical opportunism from a ‘guvmint’ lead by a man who would not look out of place crouched on a lilly pad.
Yet another study, this time from Ecuador, showing importance of T cells and showing huge amount of pre-existing immunity from this not so novel coronavirus
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33582369/
Results: As measured with INF-γ production, 80% of the convalescent COVID-19 patients, all IgG-RBD seropositive, had a strong T-cell response. However, unexpectedly, 44% of healthy unexposed healthy controls, all IgG-RBD seronegative, had a strong virus-specific T-cell response with the COVID-19 IGRA, probably because of prior exposure to common cold-causing coronaviruses or other viral or microbial antigens.
Conclusion and discussion: The high percentage of unexposed healthy subjects with a pre-existing immunity suggests that a part of the Ecuadorian population is likely to have SARS-CoV-2 reactive T cells. Given that the IGRA technique is simple, and can be easily scaled up for investigations where high numbers of patients are needed, this COVID-19 IGRA may serve to determine if the T-cell only response represents protective immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infection in a population-based study.
Possibly your ex-future fil then.
It’s good someone is trying to put some context around the headlines, and I think they send a briefing to MPs, but I found the linked article a bit puzzling. It gives some background and talks a bit about the April spike and deaths caused by lockdown but seems to tail off a bit and not talk much about winter 2020, which is surely the key now.
Also would have liked to see some context on age- and population-adjusted all-cause mortality this year compared to previous years this century
“In the next part of this analysis, which will be published on this website in the coming days, we will analyse the actual impact of the SARS-CoV-2 respiratory virus during the first half of the 2020/21 “winter” season.”
This was at the end of the paper – so winter 2020/21 will be covered in the next instalment.
Personally I found this to be very well explained and is certainly a document that the less numerate of the populace (which is quite a large proportion – including MPs) should be able to take in and understand.
I’ll look forward to the next instalment.
How could any of this be legal? The answer is it is not. There has been a coup d’état
All those involved must be held accountable for their crimes. They must be punished in such a way that no one would ever consider doing anything like this again
Unlike 1945 the minor players must not be allowed to escape justice. Without people like government lawyers and parliamentary draughtsmen this could not have occurred
I estimate the number to be about 200,000 and include
The pig dictator and his cabinet
MP’s with some exceptions
Senior Civil Servants
The majority of Police Officers
Council Officials
Covid Marshalls etc
We should start planning now
Is it OK if they dig their own graves? That’s a lot of work.
Sending the leaders and major helpers to a Gulag after their show trial will do.
Maybe the Falklands can be handed over to them and then the keys to there will just be thrown away.
The majority of the helpers, enablers and sheep must just be forgiven, reeducated and given a different distraction and occupation to suppress their bad conscience and our anger about their collaboration, see Germany post WW2.
A bit unfair on the Falklanders (and their sheep).
Gruinard or, better still, Vozrozhdeniya.
Had to look up the Russian one – sounds ideal for them.
Yes they’d have the freedom to choose between anthrax, bubonic plague and smallpox. What’s not to like?
Are there not plenty of spare ones left over, ready dug, from last March when we were all going to die?
Oh yes that infamous headline “Mass graves may be needed in UK to cope with deaths from coronavirus”. Should have been “Mass graves may be needed in UK to cope with deaths from lockdown” of course.
Graves?
Lol. No.
Stack the carcasses in shipping containers, put them on a cargo ship, scuttle it mid-Atlantic.
Need to add a large chunk of the so-called “Media”.
And the church/clergy – not a peep.
Has it got so bad that the only resort is to wild fantasy?
‘Doctors/Scientists’
Speaking of legal, a statement of claim was filed in early July against the Canadian government, the Ontario government, the CBC (our version of the BBC) and others challenging the state of emergency and the subsequent infringements on our rights and freedoms. The deadline for them to file their statement of defence was extended once and they’ve blown past it again. While Vaccine Choice Canada (the plaintiff who hired the lawyer) president said on our weekly Zoom call last night that this is indicative that they have no defence, my question remains: what is our recourse when the court — which is an arm of the government — does not hold the defendants to task for missing their filing deadline? I want to believe that these court challenges will bring an end to this insanity, but it’s hard to be optimistic when 7 months has passed and there’s been no rebuttal and no hearing in sight. On the plus side, the comments in one of our national newspapers today about Toronto public health pushing for yet another 2 weeks of lockdown, despite falling “cases,” is not going down well with people.
I’m happy for the tea-lady at the SAGE meetings to get off with a clip round the ear.
…but not if she gave them chocolate biscuits.
Dream on.
Think of the evidence we’ve got.
Vast. Detailed. Circumstantial.Incontrovertible.
Agenda 21, planned long before Johnson got there, put into place, possibly, for this reason, easy
DR REINER FUELLMICH ON THE FAKE AND CRIMINAL “CORONA CRISIS”

He discusses the current situation and his efforts to bring justice to the situation.This interview was done as apart of the full length documentary.
https://alethonews.com/2021/02/09/dr-reiner-fuellmich-on-the-fake-and-criminal-corona-crisis/
We are releasing the full interview for the betterment of public understanding of the situation.
The full film, when released, will be available at https://www.PlanetLockdownFilm.com
Thanks for this. It is absolute dynamite.
The village I live in has had a few deaths in the past year. Numerous elderly with serious illness or old age. The street I live on has had 4 deaths within 4 weeks.
I see the younger ones, early sixties as counting as preventable deaths. One died during number one house arrest at home on his own, he had a stroke. My husbands cousin died 2 months ago at home sudden heart attack and last night my 64 year old neighbour who died suddenly of a heart attack.
These deaths have one thing in common, all 3 were during house arrest and none of them would leave the house. My neighbour we found out has not been able to leave the house due to the scaremongering media, they had panicked him into believing he would die if he caught the virus but instead did no exercise and never left the house for the last couple of months and died of a heart attack instead.
I don’t know how much longer these men may have lived if they hadn’t been stopped from working and doing the things that gives them purpose, but I really believe that sitting at home and not moving is unhealthy and that this situation is what contributed to their deaths.
When someone tells me now that we’re in the middle of a pandemic, I will just answer, yes your correct, a pandemic of heart attacks and strokes.
My days are spent now on the streets of the village outside houses attending a 2021 funeral. I had a funeral last Thursday, I have a funeral tomorrow, both lived on my street, another funeral next week and probably my neighbours the following week.
However a year into this terror our government have inflicted on us, none of the deaths were ‘died from covid’ two had covid on the death certificate but died of something else.
This state of extreme unhealth is going to cause the early deaths of huge numbers of people. I would say that many people have gained at least a stone in weight due to not doing anything for a year, probably more. Their muscles have wasted away, their fitness is in the shit-can and most people will get out of breath walking up their stairs to bed.
Smoking too much, drinking way too much, eating crap food, no nearly enough fresh food or none at all. No sunlight, diabetes, blood clots, lymph odeama, ulcers, pressure sores, bad feet, stiff joints, wow, this is gonna hurt way more than the Rona will.
Obviously.
Exactly, it’s mass murder on an industrial scale.
A state, civil servants, politicians and health officials truly concerned about the wellbeing and health of their people would have basically always done the very opposite of EVERYTHING the British government in particular has done sofar and continues to do.
Their malevolence and incompetence could have only
been topped by HM opposition.
Look how the gyms have been relentlessly targeted with restrictions.
That’s a complete giveaway they want us weak and broken down.
Well said. How the NHS could go along with this lockdown nonsense but not one in that organisation had thought that the fallout from the lockdown would have been far, far worse is baffling.
“Stay at home” must be one of the worst pieces of health advice ever.
For myself I don’t think my physical health has suffered, as I always have enjoyed walking and it’s now the only non-domestic leisure activity which I can do, as everything else is closed. So I’m doing more walking than I did pre-March 2020.
Thanks for sharing this. This is the tragic result of the constant fear campaign and the stay home to protect the NHS mantra. The excess death figures in private homes for almost a whole year, show the full effect of these policies. It’s pure evil.
Our parish has had 1, yes one, and the idiots in the village think there’s a plague.
Did any of these poor soles (RIP) had the experimental vaccine.
The closed golf clubs in NRW have just written an excellent letter to PM Laschet, incl. a swipe at masks and a reference to the fact that Germany’s CMO equivalent (sort of) Wieler, is playing golf himself all the time.
Worth getting hold of, translating and sending it to the pig dictators for British golf clubs as well.
Even my obedient, mask zealous dentist friend there has now had enough and can’t see the sense of any of it anymore.
Like me, he just can’t figure out the Why?, as he understands that in the end, there will be no more money for teachers salaries, drugs, dental treatments, hip or heart operations anymore as well.
Just had the Cabinet Office in contact with me as they required more information about my FOI asking about Ministers being in contact with the BBC under the 2016 Framework Agreement and Section 67 Defence and Emergency Arrangements.
They claimed not to know what it is.
Their question:
What a bunch of numpties -10 seconds and 1 entry into google would have found the reference.
So sent them this:
Will post any answer.
Fucking iditos – if this is the best they can employ then we should be able to run rings around them with ab it of assistance from Toby et al (but which is not really forthcoming yet).
Are there any other sceptic journos who you can tap into for support and assistance? Toby appears to be taking a backseat since the death threats (I would be the same tbf).
If there’s no pushback we’re all in peril, one way or another.
I’ve been in TY’s shoes and can tell you that all logic and reasoned argument goes out of the window when you are seriously threatened in that way.
I’ve never had a death threat, so maybe that disqualifies me from comment. However, what is beyond debate is that if we do not resist, ‘the plan’ will go ahead, which will be living death (serfdom), population reduction or involuntary quarantine – possibly for life. To yield ground is simply to fall further under their power.
Laura Perrins at Conservative Woman?
She has a forensic legal mind, is clued up and vocal, and writes for Daily Mail as well so has MSM clout.
I am continually amazed at the great stuff that you do for the cause!
Should’ve known they wouldn’t pick one of the many, MANY Covid zealots for punishment following Captain Tom receiving online abuse.
Just seen this comment in a Telegraph article:
Hospitality doesn’t spread Covid. Hospitals do.
It’s straight and to the point, and accurate.
1% of “cases” picked up in” pubs and restaurants according to Wank Wanksock’s wanky app, versus 40% hospital transmission according to their wanky data.
My only issue with this is that pubs and restaurants have been closed for quite long periods of time. whereas hospitals have been operating throughout.
I don’t doubt that hospitals are the major vector, but it would be nice to have a comparison that takes that into account.
That is an awesome slogan that needs to be propagated everywhere.
My suggestion is “Stay home, avoid the NHS, save lives”.
Mine is similar but would be, “go out, avoid the NHS, save lives”.
So true and something that should be shouted from the rooftops!!!
Go Sir Charles!!! This brought tears to my eyes:
https://twitter.com/darrengrimes_/status/1362420871508410369
As I’ve said before the “improved” attitudes towards mental health and disability were only skin deep and due to this shit show, it was proved to be nothing but a sham and fake. We’ve regressed back to the Stone Age.
Well done to Sir Charles for highlighting this issue.
Will definitely write to him.
A decent man, who gets it. Most of the politicians only see Covid, not the collateral damage. I think lockdowns will kill far more people than they have ever attempted to save.
Once again apologies for repeating myself, the 1922 committee should move against the PM and replace him with Charles Walker.
He is a genuinely decent man, and has campaigned for a variety of mental health causes for quite some time. Nick de Bois wrote a quite entertaining book about his time as a 1-term Tory MP, and said Sir Charles Walker was so outstanding, that if there were such a thing he would be Parliamentarian of the decade.
He has emotion which is genuine and he does not use it to further himself. Other MP’s of all parties should understand that rather than pretending to cry…………looking at you Wancock.
He knows about mental health issues; he’s struggled with severe OCD his whole adult life.
He not only understands the problem of living with a mental health condition oneself, he also gets the pain and suffering of those who have to live with a sufferer.
He may be a politician, and sometimes he acts like a politician, on occasions, but believe me, this is a very genuine man who does care about this issue. He’s lived it; he lives with it every day.
That may be true , and certainly he is the one, singular, best political voice we have , but I don’t see Obsessive Compulsive fighting against the threadbare fabric of lies and misinformation peddled by the govt and political class.
The real facts are there to be exposed yet no one in power dares to confront them.
The one thing all politicians should learn from him – if you are honest it will shine through.
If you’re not, everyone can see it in an instant.
This man really cares – it is that obvious.
Agree with all your comments. Sir Charles is genuine and passionately committed to the issue of mental health and how lockdowns have affected him.
More power to his elbow.
Headlines on BBC Wales: NHS lists get longer and longer.

channel 4 news .. wouldnt believe a word those lying bast*rds say,
too right. !!!! and Holyhead would not have been as funny
I don’t understand what is happening. I have been diagnosed with a minor, non-life threatening, problem that I have had in the past. It needs an op that will need an overnight stay. They are working more quickly this time than they did a few years ago – strange.
Talking to a Russian friend in Rostov on Don who tells me that the vast majority of people she knows will not have the Sputnik vaccine because they don’t trust the government (now where have I heard that before). The only person she knows who has had it had a bad allergic reaction and had her eyes swell up.
Great that they don’t want the vaccine. I hope more and more refuse
WATCH: Black Country garage turned into ‘Covid Arms’ pub busted by police | Express & Star (expressandstar.com)
well, in a normal healthy society, that would be right. he just hasn’t noticed that we’re no longer living in one of those. if your society is nazi Germany or the USSR under Stalin, or the UK under its Pig Dictator and his evil entourage, then it’s a different story.
So even the government scientist are having to admit that infections are dropping like a stone. Of course it’s all down to the lockdown. Just a pity they’re not looking at the data which show this started happening before we did lockdown.
Or out of my kitchen window which is showing perfectly normal traffic, or at the fuel price which is the surest indicator of supply and demand.
Agree every lockdown occurred at or just after the rate of infections began declining. The problem is as my daughter pointed out there’s lag between the data and what is happening in the real world. Every one thinks lockdown causes the decline in infections and as nothing to do with what happens in the real world. Think about it you become infected recover and then have immunity this process occurs every time a new germ appears. In fact when covid first appeared in Wuhan it was noticed that as infections increased the growth began slowing down peaked and then declined. At the same time in Wuhan lockdown occurred and the world believed it was lockdown that brought the pandemic to a stop. The rise and fall of infections is a natural process which if you interfere with not only stops the spread of infections but also the spread of immunity. Eventually when you reopen the vulnerable become infected due to no immunity and the whole process begins again.
It is lockdown that is prolonging the pandemic and creating mutant strains.
Hopefully vaccination will give the vulnerable enough immunity to complete the process of infection followed by recovery and immunity before this process begins again.
Yes but there are 30+ papers proving they don’t work
Or at Sweden.
Or at Florida, South Dakota&co.
Or basically the entire planet.
Not a party political comment this, the opposition and others have clearly shown themselves to be on tge same side as those governing.
However, keirs lunatic speech this morning was very purple. Tie matching backcloth.
Labour colour is red is it not?
He’s from the Trilateral commission / anti democratic and the colour purple denotes a merging of red and blue so not representative of either side ..
Purple , the colour of Caesars , Popes and Royalty also a masonic colour denoting deception .
Spot on.
And the basis of a good Asterix joke.
So that’s ‘hot dogs’ in Latin??? Always wondered.
Massive Asterix fan when I was a wee lad .
People here will not like this but purple has deeper historic symbolism and is connected with the hidden society groupings who are in control.
The public displays of the colour is a simple way of communicating association and allegiance with the cause.
a bit like the old school tie or regimental tie.
It is far more significant that just the mixing of blue and red.
It’s worth researching into.
Purple is also mentioned in Revelation 17:4 as a color present in the Whore of Babylon’s garb:

How I could do with her right now!
A Few Words of Thanks
I log on to LS most days, mainly to read the Comments, where I find what often feels like the last vestige of sanity in a world I no longer recognize.
I regularly feel like posting ‘Thank You!’ simply to let Comments contributors know how much your sharing and comradere makes a difference.
So: Thank You! to everyone who makes LS a sanctuary of sound sense, in an otherwise intellectual wasteland of mindless compliance.
Thanks for being one of us, Bill.
One more brick in the wall of sanity,
Thank you, Bill. There is a good spread of regular posters here but most of us have no delusion that we’re a mighty army. It’s encouraging to know that we’re not just talking to ourselves and others are reading it even if they don’t comment themselves.
Who thinks the boris ‘irreversible’ unlock is a complete lie.
Not me, i think it’s on. It’s on because the Chinese made and intentionally released virus has been shown not to be an airborne HIV virus they thought it was in the beginning.
Don’t be so quick to blame the Chinese
Have we nuked China yet?
Time we got on with it.
What other options are there? (Sincerely)
I would wager most on this site. I wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him and that wouldn’t be far. Apart from promulgating a crime against humanity through lockdown this abysmal apology for a PM has destroyed the social fabric of our society. It may take a generation to repair this.
Ever considered the idea that destroying the social fabric is the intention?
Yes, that is becoming more and more obvious as time goes on. I have no words to describe how evil this is.
It’s obvious, so they can, “build back better,” by their implementing their sociopathic globalist ideal for human society.
Precisely, you can’t build something without destroying what is already there. It’s obviously not going to be “better” for the vast majority of mankind though.
He’s a lying bastard so yes, complete lie.
Correction: he’s a lying, manipulative bastard.
To be trusted as far as I can sling a prize bull by its caudal appendage.
No he’s telling the truth.There won’t be another lockdown because we are never getting out of this one.
Agree. These restrictions are to prepare us for the privations of the coming new age: energy rationing, travel restrictions, mandated diet, withdrawal of education, social credit scoring, involuntary quarantine, sudden arbitrary arrests.
Hmm let’s think about his past record shall we… Three weeks to flatten the curve, turn the tide in 12 weeks, Easter at Christmas, significant normality by November, lockdown is the nuclear option, LOCKDOWN TO SAVE CHRISTMAS, Christmas at Easter, sunlit uplands of vaccine world, freedom on Easter Monday…
Yep. It’s a lie.
I’ve heard September being pitched as the end. Noooo! Has no one figured out that flu like illnesses are seasonal?! Any talk of autumn just gets us to the next series of lockdowns, (from whatever grudging, miserable concessions we’re living under in August). It’s the story of 2020. Beware anyone suggesting an end happening after April. Someone suggesting any date after tomorrow is wrong as well but probably not evil. For Pete’s sake.
I’d bet a month’s salary that whatever happens in the meantime, we’ll be locked down in January 2022.
I wrote on January 1st this year in my diary- and took a date-stamped photo of the entry- “This time next year we will be pretty much exactly where we are today.”
As a kid there is no way on earth my mouth would of opened or my head remained still if my parents when for attacking me with a qtip. I would have kicked and punched to defend myself from invaison. I would lock doors and run away.
This is not because I was a problem child, nor was I physical or knowledgeable about tyranny.
Just get that fucking eye watering disgusting procedure away from me. A clear and present danger to my life.
Poor parents for having to deal with that. A suitable out is to wipe the swabs on the floor and/or papaya instead.
As an adult i’m interested in the anal swab test. Not for me you understand but i could see a niche market on pornhub for hot people testing each other
Why do you think they brought it in?
Good to see you back, Biker.
If my kids were still of school age, I’d refuse to let them be swabbed, end of.
Mine will be taken out of the packet and will be tested without going anywhere near my nose, throat or anus.
Then you will be an accessory. Refuse.
Sorry but it’s the truth .
POOR PARENTS?
Any parent who does this is on their way to becoming a filthy MENGELE only to THEIR OWN FUCKING CHILDREN!
Do we do lost and found on this site? anyway I’ll give it a try I’ve lost a pandemic, I’m sure it was here a while ago but I’ve just looked and I cannot find it anywhere, if you have seen it can you let me know? Plenty of manic news reports, one minute encouraging, the next minute doom and gloom, megalomaniac politicians talking in a manner that in no way recognises the world I live in, but no pandemic! goodness only knows where it has gone?
Our local hospital, Barnstaple, currently has zero ‘covid’ patients, the few that it had seem to have been transferred to the Exeter nightingale covid quarantine hospital, much as the old fashioned approach to quarantine hospitals. This approach seems to mean the Barnstaple and presumably other district NHS hospitals in the South West are now operating as relatively normal NHS hospitals.
So all in all I just cannot kind this pandemic, all the people locally are out walking in the spring sunshine, they all look happy and healthy and cheerfully stop and chat to each other, so I just cannot find this pandemic? has anybody seen it?
I haven’t but I believe Bill Gates can sort you out a new one.
And you get to call it whatever you want as long as it is named after a country.
Haha that’s funny
as Bill signs off on his annual letter with this cheery note “It’s not too soon to start thinking about the next pandemic.”
They seek it here they seek it there
That darned illusive disease from hell
I’ve asked around… not been seen since April 2020 apparently.
You ain’t seen nothing yet. Wait and see what this probe brings back…
there are bats and pangolins on the moon?. well i never!
They must have a takeaway cooking bat soup at the secret moon base!
Look at the pic, end of May.
DT: Pregnant women at risk should get Covid-19 vaccine, WHO expert says
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/women-and-girls/pregnant-women-risk-should-get-covid-19-vaccine-expert-says/
So we want you to take something we don’t know is safe.
Complete and utter bastards!
Wow, that’s some logical chicanery there…
These people are criminals – Remember SWINE – FLU – FRAUD.
But I thought the original advice was for pregnant women NOT to take it.
Well, the ‘advice/recommendation’ doen’t get more ambiguous than this.
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/priority-groups-for-coronavirus-covid-19-vaccination-advice-from-the-jcvi-30-december-2020/joint-committee-on-vaccination-and-immunisation-advice-on-priority-groups-for-covid-19-vaccination-30-december-2020
I remember someone ringing up LBC and saying he would bet his bottom dollar the “advice” originated from social media!
Pregnant women are, by virtue of their age, at almost no risk from Covid-19. If they have conditions that would put them at great risk from Covid-19, surely these are conditions that would make pregnancy itself incredibly risky. I’ve been pregnant twice and don’t recall abject stupidity being one of the side effects.
when I see the phrase “though more research is needed.”. you can understand the speaker’s motivation.
Ah, come on, my pregnant grandma is 86, she’s in a vulnerable group.
Not a chance will I allow this on my child.
Anyone who does is not fit to be a parent.
News from Israel
those who have been vaxxed will be given a “green pass” and allowed to return to “normal” vax refusers will remain locked down.
govt says if everyone takes the vax covid goes away for ever .
Well well ,it couldn’t have just been a scam to manipulate people could it ?
see Paul Joseph Watson Summit News
As per the leaked Canadian report
More and more of the report is happening, scares the life out of me if I am honest.
Don’t be scared, be aware, be prepared
The leaked Canadian doc may be fake, it may not , taken together with other sources the info is all part of a bigger picture showing the direction of travel.
People have to wake up and wise up , the govts are basically determined to take the people to an undefined future without their instructions to do so.
The people have forgotten that we hire them to keep the place tidy .
They have gotten too confident thinking the ruling classes hold power,
We hold the power and it’s high time we exercised our responsibility to ourselves.
Don’t be scared be angry. We need to team up and fight back, we are digital warriors, the terrain we fight on is human we must take back the human terrain – the minds of the many.
I still can’t believe so many people cannot see what is now so blindingly obvious!
I was always open minded about it.It seemed far fetched but a lot of it is coming to pass.
It was very similar to the German Bundestag leak too wasn’t it.
Where did the e-mail mention Israel?
It didn’t.It said all countries have their own version of the plan.
If you study what is happening around the world it does seem countries are implementing certain measures that they think they can get away with.
Our lockdown was always a bit lenient compared to other places yet we will all end up in the same place.
What do you expect from an APARTHEID state?
At least they didn’t choose a yellow pass.
How can that be correct when even the vaccine makers do not know if the vaccine stops you spreading the virus. All vaccines do is reduce the symptoms, they do not stop you catching or spreading the virus.
I could see the nut jobs on the fringes of Israeli politics and on whom every Israeli government relies putting up with that.
Ivor Cummins latest vid about Florida shows they are doing well with no LD
I’ve recently read some olympic-tier mental gymnastics from a zealot still trying to claim Florida did worse than New York state because higher average age is more important than per capita and also because the CFR is the true mortality indicator. Their defending stretches are just amazing.
I have read a lot of similar bending of the mind from zealot son India and their recent success.
One was masks. As per usual.
Another was that they are deliberately under reporting their numbers. Now who’s the conspiracy theorist.
Another was families do not report deaths from Covid due to the social stigma.
Not one of these people have any evidence of course to back up their brain farts
Positive test results are in rapid decline across the world.
3 things happened on Jan 20th,
Below I’ve repeated a chart I posted earlier asking how the target of 1,000 positive tests/day can be achieved when the FPR rate produces 5x that number with the level of testing we’re doing. Well the answer may be to reduce the Ct rate.
Surely a total coincidence. Just like Pfizer chosing the day the result of the presidential election was
fixeddeclared to announce their vaccine ready to go.Who was the minister who fell when Martin Sixsmith & Jo Moore decided it was a ‘good day to bury bad news’, 9/11/2001. Jan 20th was a good day to bury any other news!
I always thought it was to do with Princess Margaret’s funeral but it appears 9/11 seeded the idea
If I remember correctly it was Stephen ‘cab for hire’ Byers, the MP for my former home constituency.

Feeling mischievous waiting for a wash to finish so I tried to post this under the DM pubs passports story. ‘Comments are not moderated’ so it says but seems they’re not having it
‘Hello SeventySeventh. How are you? I just wonder if you can share – what’s your motivation? Without going down conspiracy theory rabbit holes even you must know now this is disproportionate to the problem. A scam, follow the money etc. Are there any ex-77th here that realised what’s going on and for the love of human kind stopped trolling? You can’t honestly believe the psyops propaganda you’re paid to promote………is the money just too good that you’ve abandoned all integrity and sold your soul? Would be interesting to know….for the trials that will surely follow this atrocity. ‘
I’ve often wondered that, its like a total disconnection between what they’re promoting and what will actually happen to their own lives. Can’t imagine the money’s that good either
They’re a bunch of thickos.
I mean, Tobias Ellwood is a Lieutenant Colonel.
With a name like Tobias he has to be a CU@T
apparently you can volunteer
When I was at school, in the English class we once were discussing debating and as an exercise we were assigned one side or the other on a particular topic, irrespective of our personal views. We then had to develop arguments for our assigned side. Maybe 77th brigade treat it like that, just a piece of work to do.
Have you had any replies?
Keep checking but so far it’s not posted. I’ve tried 4 times now and even changed ‘ex-77th’ to ex seven seven but still no luck. Anyone else welcome to copy and try.
We should all post the above on as many comments sections we can as many times as we can.

Supermarket in Israel checking vaccine papers. No vaccine no food. Another CoNSpirAcY THeoRy doomers said wouldn’t happen
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoNewNormal/comments/lmk4mx/supermarket_in_israel_checking_vaccine_papers_no/
It looks like a shopping centre and we have no idea what is being said to the people or by the guy at the end. Let’s not get hysterical now.
from what I read last week-Israel is still in lockdown but a number of shopping malls have taken it upon themselves to defy the lockdown but insist on proof of vaccination.

Desmond Swayne has a blog
Other than being a bit pro-vaccine for my tastes, he is usually on the money
https://www.desmondswaynemp.com/blogs/
That’s great. I’d love to show him my support by ‘following’ him but not a chance I’m opening an account in that cesspit called Twitter.
It’s not on Twitter – it’s just a web-page – take a look
Sorry for the confusion, I read the blog which was great, then clicked into something that said ‘Follow me’ but it linked to signing up with Twitter.
There is no vaccine, Julian, only gene enhancement.
Yes, he’s always worth watching or listening to. Agree he’s a little bit trigger-happy with the ‘v’ word but having said that, there’s probably more chance of the overall message getting through that way. If the first thing he said was ‘Oh I’m not totally sure about this jab stuff…’ the rest of the [blog, interview] would be dismissed – even if it detailed how he genuinely could turn water into wine, had completely eliminated homelessness, cured 17 types of cancer, and found Shergar – it would all be ignored or attacked.
Woman Gets Police Home Visit Over Anti-Mask Facebook Post
Should be the Conservatives new logo
Just a reminder that the clear evidence that police are over-funded, over-manned and have too much time on their hands is not just a UK issue.
I give up. I was wrong and the BLM scum were right on this: defund the police, damn it, until they genuinely don’t have the time or manpower to enforce non-criminal “crimes”, from “hate speech” to lockdown bullshit.
BLM: wrong reason but right policy.
We certainly need police reform, but that can’t happen unless the whole system is overhauled.
We live in a world run by an organised crime syndicate of corporate billionaires & technocrats.
We have to bring all those oligarch funded NGO’s down first.
Only take a weekend LOL.
The next time the police cry “poverty” and “cuts” as their excuse as to why many crimes go unsolved, they must never be believed.
This shit show has shown that they have the time, money and resources to harass people getting on with their lives so it should be a doodle to solve grooming gangs, knife crime, theft, assault, anti-social behaviour and the like.
A rather accurate poster that, succintly describing the zeitgeist.
I posted this, this afternoon, thought it was worth bringing to the top for anyone who hasn’t seen it, worth watching.

What exponential bullshit is this?
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/coronavirus-news-covid-lockdown-end-vaccine-uk-cases-shielding/

Coronavirus latest news: More than 20 million years of life may have been lost due to Covid, study finds
Covid-19 has cost more than 20.5 million years of life across the globe, including well over 800,000 in the UK, according to new analysis.
The paper, published in Scientific Reports journal, found the virus has cut short thousands more lives than comparable illnesses, such as influenza and heart disease.
‘Years of lost life’ (YLL) is a measure of the difference between an individual’s age at death and their life expectancy.
The researchers found that across 81 hard hit countries, Covid-19 caused people to die on average 16 years earlier than they otherwise would have.
Dr Simon Clarke, associate professor in cellular microbiology at the University of Reading, said: “This study shows the staggering scale of the human cost of this pandemic.
“[It] highlights the combined cost of the pandemic so far in terms of lives cut significantly shorter by a virus that kills people earlier than seasonal flu, or even heart disease.”
The study suggests that 44.9 percent of the YLL have occurred in people aged between 55 and 75.
While 30.2 percent occurred in individuals younger than 55, and 25 percent in those older than 75.
The authors caution that the results need to be understood in the context of an ongoing pandemic, and that they only provide a snapshot of the possible impacts of coronavirus on years of life lost
It is the exponential bullshit you have brought to the table. Go to bed!
Unsurprising really, the “global health” title immediately confirms it’s commissioned propaganda, even worse than the main headlines.
I make it 67m years just in this country – and that’s just for those of us who have survived.
Wait a sec – for everyone who has had their life put on hold in the UK alone that’s at least 60 million years of life lost. And counting.
Would YOU trust this man?
The Daily Telegraph link to the original paper does not seem to work. However there is a link to another Daily Telegraph article about the “scientific” paper involved: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/covid-has-cost-800000-years-life-uk-global-report-finds/
The fun bit is at the end of this article: “Hector Pifarre i Arolas, a research director at the Center for Research in Health Economics in Barcelona and co-author of the report, said … the first version… in June 2020 reported 4,364,326 years of life have been lost to Covid-19. … The current version reports 20,507,518 years of life have been lost … He added that the “real burden” of the pandemic may be higher as the current estimates do not include excess deaths.”
When scientists start reporting things like 20,507,518 years (Thank goodness it wasn’t 20,507,519 years or else I’d have to sit down for a breather!), you know they’ve gone mad. Why not 20,507,518 years, 6 months, 12 days and 13 minutes just to be precise? And does the “pandemic” really cause the “excess deaths” master Hector didn’t get around to calculating?
Oh well! Boris and chums can use this as another reason to keep the masses locked up for longer! No freedom until years of life lost go to zero!
Just another day in clown world.
Cue the Benny Hill theme.
The Labour leader is a real numpty moaning that if he’d opposed the lockdown people would have asked what the he was doing. No,he’s wrong because he could have become a leader everyone could have followed by suggesting alternative policies. They were plenty of scientists who could have offered different advice but no he played safe and consigned Labour into oblivion.
Starmer is part of the trilateral commission.He is very much part of the scam
He gets his orders from the Trilateral Commission. Nothing he says is of any value except in that we may infer the designs of his employers.
yes but dont forget his Dad was a ‘toolmaker’ on the ‘shop floor’!!!!….what a complete WANKER STARMER IS!!!
“his Dad was a ‘toolmaker’ “
Obviously.
I suggest we start distinguishing between a sceptic and a sceptic-lite.
The latter are all about the vaccine being the way out and that we should be somehow grateful that our political and scientific masters have given us a path to possible freedom.
Fuck that. This should end regardless of any vaccine, and the criminal scum who made these insane decisions should be put where they belong – behind bars.
Being a sceptic is about questioning not questioning everything for the sack of questioning.
If it’s raining I won’t question that, if I’m lockup in my own home for the flu and then forced to take an experimental gene therapy then I will question that all day long.
I think the divide is between incompetence and conspiracy.If you believe in incompetence then you will see the jab as a way out,even though the government has said it won’t.if you doubt the governments motives then a rushed experimental potion should cause alarm bells especially when tied to a vaccine passport.
Divide is not that clear.
I believe there has been gross (criminal level / Spirit of Free Enterprise level) incompetence but will not be coerced int the jab.
Person drives their car into the front of Sainsburys!
“Emergency services are attending the scene of an incident at the Sainsbury’s branch in Tadley.
A shopper said on Facebook: “There was a massive bang! A car has driven into the front of Sainsbury’s to the right of the exit.
“Not sure how it happened but it took some bollards out. Emergency services were there pretty quickly and the people were being looked after.”
A spokesperson for the South Central Ambulance Service said: “We were called at 14.42 to a collision on Mulfords Hill, Tadley where a car had gone through a window.
“We sent to the scene two ambulance crews and a rapid response vehicle to assess and treat two patients, who were then taken to North Hampshire Hospital in Basingstoke.”

Well, that’s one way of attempting a ‘Covid safe’ shop. Who needs a face nappy when you can have a whole car protecting you? Presumably, they have a long pair of clippers to grab the boxes of cereals from the shelves once inside.
Did the vehicle have a mask on?
Perhaps the driver was triple masked and passed out at the wheel.
Perhaps a maskless person walked near the car and the driver panicked.
Perhaps a maskless person walked near the car and the driver
panickedaimed for him.The UK equivalent of that Chinese video where someone (allegedly) dropped dead in the street due to COVID.
Where they will, no doubt, catch Covid and die of it… as opposed to the fractured skull they were admitted with.
There’s one positive I take if we go down the zero covid route.
Watching the gutless British public suffer as a result of their complicity in this lunacy.
I certainly hope a lot of people will be testing the efficacy of their Hycolin (or other brand name) anti-viral cleaning sprays by dipping their PCR/LFT swabs in it rather than up their nose or down their throat…

Have you seen the latest Home Office ‘Covid’ ad!?
I haven’t laughed so hard in ages.
An attempt to presumably ‘frighten’ people by using what sounds like a bad 90s house track and clips of baby showers being broken up by goons. While full of the usual arrogant, narcissistic, emotionally manipulative rubbish, I have to say that the sheer (unintentional) comic value of it actually drowns those aspects of it out for me.
Whoever is behind this garbage is either extremely weird and/or extremely dim.
Guess that is for the yoof market. Pathetic.
Desperate. Quite literally.
Looks like it was made by a couple of 12 year olds for a school project.
I couldn’t make out the jumpy shadowy words so I’m afraid I don’t know what “I’m allowed to do or not”.
We’re not allowed to do anything. We’re to stay at home and fuck off, and fuck off while we’re doing it.
LOL, reminds me of the old anti-piracy ads.
Demand a genuine video cassette from your retailer! Copyright FACT.
I played it to the kids at dinner. We had a good laugh at the mickey mouse drum and bass soundtrack. Bet they got paid a fortune to knock this up too.
It’s mentioned in the Telegraph coronavirus live feed:
Home Office accused of ‘grossly’ misstating Covid rules in tweet
The Home Office has been accused of “grossly” misstating coronavirus rules after it said “all gatherings are currently against the law”.
The Twitter post accompanied a video which said “meeting up is against the law” as it showed footage of police raiding house parties as it warned people not to break lockdown rules, without clarifying that several exceptions permit some gatherings.
Some lawyers hit out at the language and called for the footage to be corrected or removed.
Parties and most other social gatherings are currently illegal in England under lockdown laws but there are exceptions for people meeting, including for work, volunteering, helping vulnerable people and to attend support groups.
Adam Wagner, a human rights barrister at Doughty Street Chambers who has been interpreting coronavirus laws for the public on social media, said on Twitter: “Oh my goodness. I’m not sure where to start.
“This is the Home Office, the government department responsible for law and order.
“This tweet and video grossly misstate the law. All gatherings are *not* illegal.”
Hilarious! Cops breaking up a baby shower isn’t a great look. Suspect the whole thing will backfire!
Got an email just now from my GP, inviting me to update my details so that I can be contacted when the vaccine is available for my age group.
I will be ignoring it.
I’ll preface this by saying that anyone who wants the experimental gene therapy should have the option to have it. But each of us who don’t want it and are privileged enough (i.e., retired) to refuse the “vaccine” should do so for the good of humanity. There needs to be a control group, and the more of us there are the more difficult it will be for them to deny us basic services. And, because they will never admit a connection between the “vaccine” and what I believe will be an exponential rise in autoimmune disease and worse, the control group will be a critical data point. There has already been talk of offering the “vaccine” to the actual control group in the initial trials which completely invalidates any long-term safety data. I believe this is the point. Non-compliance is selfish, but I also see it as a civic duty and something I need to do for the sake of my kids and future generations.
i dont think i t’s selfish at all.no way will i g et that vaccine , so glad you won t either , i think we should also still warn as many people as we can i ve tried but it never sinks in will keep trying
Now I don’t know if it’s the case in the UK or Canada, but in the US they cannot legally mandate the “vaccine” so long as it hasn’t been approved by the FDA. As of now, our FDA equivalents have granted only emergency use authorization. I feel really strongly that anyone who does not want to comply but is feeling pressured should resist as long as is humanly possible. The threats may be to pressure people into complying well in advance of them being able to actually deny us services, jobs, etc. It will be a logistical nightmare and a PR nightmare to actually make good on these threats and we may have until 2023 when the so-called trials end before mandates can even be legally enacted. Are they really going to prevent pregnant women from working or going to the grocery store? People who have severe allergies? People with autoimmune diseases that exempt them from vaccines? If they couldn’t track and trace, how are they going to implement this two-tiered society they’re floating? While I believe the evil intent is there, the incompetence my be what saves the day. Please don’t give in one second before you feel you absolutely have to!
i will never give in ,am quite stubborn .i have read that a mandate is not a law.peggy hall the healthy american has lots of information for u s americans
i keep meeting more and more people who won’t get the vaccine [ well 4 more in the last week after very few for months [ i never will get vaccine ] we will win in the end .
i tell everyone now about the nuremburg code .
You’re fortunate to be in the US. They can’t mandate it while it’s under emergency use authorization. Good to hear more people are sceptical! Peggy Hall has been amazing throughout this insanity.
It’s illegal in UK at the moment to mandate vaccines. Contravenes ECHR
Hang on Lisa, not doing what the Fascists want us to do is selfish? Not so long ago it was seen as honourable to stand up to tyranny and fight for freedom.
I agree and am using selfish as a positive descriptor — I see nothing wrong with protecting myself and will never allow the state to use my body to “protect” other people. I have autoimmune issues and I think this gene therapy will kill me, or worse, but I’d refuse it regardless. Health freedom is the hill I am willing to die on.
“There has already been talk of offering the “vaccine” to the actual control group in the initial trials which completely invalidates any long-term safety data. I believe this is the point”
I believe that is addressed in a recent podcast I saw with RFK Jr. Theo Von is funny, but at least the interview was good! Can’t recall which version went and vaccinated the control group, or how he confirmed that:
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. | This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von #306 – YouTube
Thanks! Don’t know if it’s actually happened, but I did hear talk of Pfizer and Moderna possibly offering the control group the “vaccine” because it wouldn’t be ethical to keep this potentially life-saving treatment from them (sarcasm). Of course the trial participants are the healthiest of the healthy and probably wouldn’t even know it if they had Covid. These crooks don’t do anything ethical so I have to believe they are purposely trying to mess with the long-term safety trial because they know the placebo group will fare better over time.
I have had two texts, first one ignored, second one replied thanks, but no thanks. Got a phone call today from the GP asking if I had been contacted, and whether I wanted it. I’m now on a list – presumably the ‘refuseniks for reprogramming’. They will have Mr TT on it soon, although I’m not sure why I have been contacted (group 8) and he hasn’t (group 6). There needs to be as much passive resistance now as possible, IMHO.
I’d strongly advise people to simply ignore letters, texts, emails and phone calls as you can’t be recorded as having refused the vaccine by not responding. I’ve never given my mobile number to my GPs surgery or my email as I don’t want the NHS to have this information.
They sent me a badly worded SMS invite last week. I ignored it and am somewhat surprised not to have been harassed again yet.
A surge of acquaintances have been vaccinated recently, presumably with AstraZeneca. All of them have suffered flu symptoms, ranging from 1-4 days in bed. One had a “mini-stroke” within a day, and another was dead within a week (but I don’t have the details of that – don’t want to probe). You can imagine that just the flu symptoms would have the potential to kill off the most frail. The only person I know without symptoms was my grandmother who got both doses of the Pfizer junk done by early Jan.
I’m only 50, got my first text a few days ago and today got a call asking me to book an appointment, I said not interested. What I should’ve said was I’ve lost two relatives and one who is permanently disabled after getting their poison, so can you not try and kill me as well.
Pleased you’re ignoring it but I’m slightly curious as to why you’ve given the surgery your email address.
I see in LS news that David Aaronovitch has finally awoken with some concerns about where all this is going.
This is the same David Aaronovitch who was a cheerleader for the Iraq war, until realising that he’d been completely lied to and it led to hundreds of thousands of innocent people dying, as many of us had predicted.
This is supposed to be a serious commentator yet he supported the UK’s two most catastrophic political decisions in living memory.
The definition of a useful idiot? David Aaronovitch.
Good evening Draper,
Couldn’t agree more!
“…If nothing is eventually found, I – as a supporter of the war – will never believe another thing that I am told by our government, or that of the US ever again. And, more to the point, neither will anyone else. Those weapons had better be there somewhere.”

Peter Hitchens by his own admission seems destined to be the UK media’s ‘Cassandra’ yet again.
Best regards
Simon
I think Cassandra had the courage to throw herself off a barricade or something, while Hitchens has shrunk from assuming a leadershhip role in marches against Lockdown ,and prefers to pettifog on twitter with obscure journos and to post photos from his wanker walks about Oxford.
I just listened to this Monday’s chat with Mike GRAHAM.Hitchens was asked what he thought about vaccine passports.He stumbled then waffled like a politician.He has either been got at or is self censoring.I have never heard Hitchens reply to a question in that manner before.They are not a theory;they are being openly discussed at Cabinet level and Johnson has already admitted they will be required for international travel.
Aaronovitch was also a cheerleader for ID cards. I bet he’s itching to get his vaccine passport.
Hear, hear. Politically- an idiot. Personally- an exceptionally nasty piece of work. Yet another piece of detritus who has made the journey from left-wing authoritarianism to right-wing authoritarianism and thinks himself the only person ever to have done so.
Pleased to see we’ve independently reached much the same conclusion on Aaronovitch.
Aaronovitch belongs in the same category as Dan Hodges. Same kind of personally poisonous, dishonest, power-worshipping establishment bootlicker. Rather more profoundly nasty even than Hodges, though.
He’s a journalist. The ones with integrity are a vanishing breed.
Indeed.
FB link, but more excellent analysis of latest PCR data by adaptation.
I guess we all know the conclusions, but it’s very informative nonetheless. I’d highly recommend following their updates.

The governments are in complete control of the virus – many matches to be played at neutral venues due to covid restrictions including those played below.
Manchester united played Real Sociedad in Italy
Arsenal play Benfica in Italy
Liverpool played RB Leipzig in Hungary
Tottenham played RZ Pelletts WAC (Austrian) in Hungary
and Molde played Hoffenheim at Villareal, Spain. At the Estadio de la Ceramica. Must have been in the cup .. boom boom
That’s booming amazing!
Even though this is completely vomit-inducing, it gave me a good chuckle.
Fauci even looks like central casting for a murdering doctor. More and more I think that it is possible to judge people’s character by their appearance, their face.
Contrast Mullis with Fauci. Contrast Gupta with that stupid Edinburgh bitch professor. Contrast Cummins with shifty Ferguson. And so on, And so on. It really is all in the face.
That’s what I don’t get. How anyone can look at the protagonists and believe a single word they say.
I still have to wonder whether thus entire mess is down to Fauci and his mates at NiH, manipulating Coronavirus before they got caught and shipped the entire operation to Wohan.
Sorry, don’t see anything funny about that whatsoever. Especially not the fking rainbow coloured hearts coming out of the syringe.
Makes me want to take a hammer to that glass.

God, isn’t he right about being sick of seeing Bill Gates all the time.
Indeed he is. As am I.
The UK Government has released the 3rd report on adverse reactions to the covid vaccines. Here is The Daily Expose’s breakdown of adverse reactions to the Pfizer jab. SHARE EVERYWHERE
https://dailyexpose.co.uk/2021/02/18/think-the-pfizer-jabs-safe/
1st report had 107 deaths*
2nd report had 143 deaths*
3rd report has 173 deaths*
*These are cumulative.
The list of different reactions is also getting bigger.
How can MHRA still say there are no deaths from the vaccines when the Regime’s figures are saying there are?
These figures are deaths reported post-vaccination. Unless we are told otherwise in due course, we can’t assume that the vaccine caused or contributed to any of the deaths. So there you have it….”no deaths from the vaccines”. We’ve been told what they want us to believe and I can see that it will be difficult to prove otherwise. There is no limit to the mendacity.
Unless I’m misunderstanding your point, I can’t agree with that statement. These are the Gov’s own numbers; they state that this, or that, reaction occurred as a result of the vaccine and that, in some cases, the reaction was fatal.
Got vaccinated > reacted as follows > some reactions led to death!
It’s there in black and white.
The intro to the article states that the data is an analysis of MHRA Yellow card submissions. It is the authors of the article who are interpreting the data as definitive evidence of reactions to the vaccine and I think there is little doubt that a large number of them are. Hence my scepticism that the government would ever feel it necessary to admit otherwise.
Another point to note also is that notification by means of the Yellow Card system is optional. Post-vaccine medical occurrences do not have to be reported via the system. So actual figures will undoubtedly be far higher than those published.
Agreed, many people will say nothing. My daughter had an absence seizure after her Men B vaccine, I told the nurse at the GPs about it, but as she got better I didn’t think to report it. I wonder if I can do it a year later? There must be many others who don’t say anything.
Yes, likewise, I know someone with a number of ailments (heart, kidney and blood pressure problems primarily) who had side effects from her first ‘covid’ vaccine which she got over after a couple of days. Doctors had even taken time to assess her records and consider whether she should even be given the vaccine.
I asked her husband if he had reported the side effects and (a) he wasn’t aware of the Yellow Card system and (b) he “didn’t want to bother her GP as they had enough to do”. I dread to think what might happen after the second jab but unfortunately they don’t pay any attention to my cautionary words.
Also agreed. 100%
Many people don’t know about the yellow card scheme.
Also, they’ve just done the very elderly and if reporting is online, that might be impossible for them.
Agreed! There certainly is little doubt that a large number of them are.
There’s one hell of a lot of reactions on that list that can only have been diagnosed by a medically qualified person. In fact, everything on that list, other than ‘general disorders’, e.g. headaches, fatigue, can’t possibly be self-diagnosed.
Just my opinion, but if these reports are being sent in by Doctors, Consultants, GPs and nurses, and they mention the patient died, then they died because of the vaccine.
I concur with all you say.
Died of anything within 28 days of positive Covid test-Covid.
Died of anything within a week of the vaccine-definitely unrelated to vaccine.
Ridiculous!!
just spoke to an old friend I hadn’t spoken to in years. As is sadly the case with most people, [it seems] she has never questioned the official narrative for an instant, and I was listening to myself through her ears, and I could feel her shocked response, and read her thinking: ‘she’s clearly completely unhinged.’ [ the usual ‘why’ questions: ‘but why? why would they do something like this? why would they lie about a pandemic? why would they give everybody a lethal injection?’ – the ‘why’ question that as another contributor pointed out earlier, should not precede the ‘factual’ question, ‘ARE they doing it?’] – the sad thing about this kind of conversation, which I now have fairly regularly, is that I don’t find them annoying, frustrating, or upsetting: on the contrary, I find some strange sense of relief in seeing myself for a while as a complete nutcase, with an overactive imagination, that has dreamed up this horrific nightmare, I can believe fleetingly that the old familiar world is still somehow there, it will soon come back, and perhaps my children do still have a future. for a short while it is like some dreadful weight has been lifted from me.
Yes – I know what you mean. Even though you absolutely know that everything you have seen over the last few months makes complete sense and nothing of what is happening makes any sense at all, when you speak to someone like this you come away feeling like you have to question it all over again.
I wish I could get past the annoyance and frustration they make me feel.
I had a message conversation with an old friend earlier too. I said that I thought the country and the world was getting more vile every day, that there was no intention for this to end. She said that was a sad outlook and she wouldn’t ever agree with it. I asked her what evidence she had for thinking it would end – she had none, just had to believe it would. That’s what I thought – I just don’t share that optimism.
Just tell them everything. So they’ve at least heard it. Then, perhaps by Summer they will suddenly click and it will all make sense.
And, don’t give up, I believe if enough people fought back this whole thing could be turned around.
If it wasn’t now, we’d have to fight it thirty years from now. Let’s get it over with.
Something else: Is there a ‘crash course’ in the coming ( they think ) technocratic tyranny? I was thinking there needs to be so that people are at least loosely on the same sheet.
I’ve tried with all of them before – I was on FB for months posting things they could have looked at. They simply aren’t interested. They won’t look at anything. This particular one said tonight ‘I don’t have any enthusiasm to debate it’ – she won’t even engage.
Facebook was exhausting. I did the same and shared truth as lovingly as possible, but in the end I had to step away for my own sanity.
Me too
And me. Facebook is poisonous.
Well, I am really surprised more hasn’t been made of the Zuckerberg leaked video.
Edit: I mean made of on here. He is an insider. I wonder what is going on there.
It’s the same everywhere I think. All levels people must be questioning what are we at here? His masked slipped for sure.
Imagine working in some HR department right now for a large corporate say. Having to write up the company propaganda to ensure you are addressing VACCINE HESITANCY. And ensuring your BAME employees get both barrells.
All the while you’re a raging sceptic. Shitting yourself. Biting the tongue. Crying at shifts end in the car park. People must be breaking inside.
More could be going on under the surface with people. And sometimes they take in more than they let on. I just know that with me things brew underneath and then suddenly come to the surface in realisation.
This is in real time, so sooner or later stuff is going to happen. I don’t think there is any point in getting frustrated over it, except when it comes to, say, persuading someone to at least hold off the vaccine.
I’m not going to bother trying anymore. They’ll just have to deal with the horror when/if they ever wake up. The apathy, and lack of interest in the loss of freedom just astounds me. Maybe we should just concentrate on saving ourselves now.
Thank you for posting this advice. I think this is so true.
I know of some people who have said to me, “people said this, or that, would happen, and I thought it ridiculous… then it did happen, and then another thing happened, and I thought, ‘you know what, these people are not mad, they’re telling me the truth, and they’ve been telling the truth the whole time'”.
Vaccine + passport + digital currency.That much is certain.
Very little private car use.Power cuts.They are coming too.
The rest is speculation but you can add no foreign travel.Massive censorship of the internet.
Are the power cuts because of the plans to run everything by electricity?
Green energy cannot sustain the grid.We are in trouble anyway because our nuclear power stations are nearing the end of life.Coal is being phased out.Wind is too unreliable because the supply is intermittent and cannot be stored safely.
Unless you live in Scotland, then it’s just a pain in the ass.
I saw some article today talking about pumping water up mountains to store potential energy from renewables (i.e. gravitational batteries). It sounds like an interesting idea, but I am thinking it possibly unworkable due to the energy loss in all the conversion. Power the pumps – lose energy, convert back via dynamos – lose energy, transport electricity from the nearest mountains to London – lose energy. In the end you only get a fraction back of what you put in. All these schemes just gloss over the problems.
The real solution is fewer people. Unfortunately no one will take a long-term humane decision (two children max), because the sheep will vote them out (because of procreation instincts). So now we are resorting to the plans of mad bond-villains like Gates. And just to clarify, CO2 is not an issue,the real problems are resource depletion, soil fertility, ocean pollution, deforestation, antibiotic resistance etc. Such a stupid species.
We already do it.
Cruachan from the 1950’s and Dinorwig later are pumped storage, to balance out demand.
They need a s*** load of concrete to build the dams up mountains and seriously in the UK there aren’t that many places you can do it.
It makes sense when you have conventional/ nuclear running best at steady load to store for the surge when half the country switches the kettle and telly and oven on at 5 pm or whatever.
Or not. Nothing is given.
Purely anecdotally I’ve heard that the level of electric car adoption in a neighborhood that requires a complete grid rebuild is 6-8%.
They don’t expect many of us driving going forward.
Sometimes I feel like I’m playing a part. When I speak to frightened friends and family I don’t dare mention what I really think. I have tried before and I know that I will lose their relationship if I persevere. I value those friendships and so I keep quiet and pray for them. They are blind and will not see what we see. Only God can open blind eyes. I do really struggle in these conversations, when the elephant in the room remains undiscussed. When will they feel safe enough to see us? I miss these people, my dad, my sister, my friends, my in laws, all lost to fear.
I agree Liberty. Family and friends are more important than getting them to admit they are totally deluded and wrong!
I don’t bother going down that route either – unless they directly challenge me on something…as it were launch an unprovoked attack, then I am happy to set out the facts. There are of course some friends I can argue with freely with because they are prepared to debate the issues with evidence and logic…that’s no problem. It’s interesting how often they don’t know even the basics e.g.total ignorance of T cell immunity. People outside my personal circle, I don’t usually launch into arguments with them. I am still waiting for someone to take me to task for not wearing a mask. The worst I’ve had was a muttered “put an effing mask on” to which I muttered back “eff off”. Not exactly a reasoned debate!
I’ll keep off the subject with family but when people I once thought of as friends turn out to be on the other side in this cold war then they are no longer friends. My mistake for not seeing them as they really were sooner but, now that I know, I can’t un-know.
This is me too. I think my family are comfortable with mixing as usual in our homes and that’s a life line. But they can’t see the overall picture. They don’t really want to believe anything until the BBC let’s them think it
I’m glad you’ve got that lifeline. I have a couple of friends who volunteer on our smallholding, chatting with them keeps me sane.
This whole situation seems to have been contrived to ”divide” in order to rule. Some of my closest and dearest are woefully uninformed and determinedly deaf to any criticism of their prison warders. So I’ve stopped telling them my point of view, or asking about theirs.
It strikes me the only way we can beat those evil swines who are causing all this is to keep our cool, and remain united despite our differences, until perhaps we can see a way out. Our nearest and dearest are deluded – but I desperately want my loved ones to remain my loved ones.
I keep reminding myself of the old adage: ‘‘Least said, soonest mended”.
Banjones, if there was a
Button for your comment I would use it. This is the approach I try and take, but oh my I sometimes get soo frustrated!!
Thanks, Liberty. I’ve got a few little tears right now. It’s really not easy.
Have you asked them gently what it is they’re afraid of? It seems to me that people don’t know any more. They can SEE that the virus isn’t around them – yet they believe the figures and the actors in the ventilator garb. They wear muzzles – do they know why? They’re told 99.7 per cent of people are not at risk – yet they clamour for a ”vaccine” with less effectiveness than their own immune system. And they want the ”vaccine” because they really believe that ”we can get back to normal” even though the government has said they won’t. So why are they afraid?
Is this what’s known as ”cognitive dissonance”?
They won’t admit their fear though. They take pride is stating they are not afraid. They are convinced they are helping the country, doing their bit and protecting the NHS. I just can’t make any headway with them.
I do believe that cognitive dissonance is exactly what we are seeing.
What we are seeing is the effect of twelve months of very skillful brainwashing.
Yes – I’m sure that some truly believe they’re being noble. And that makes me hate our evil ‘leaders’ even more – that they should betray people’s (even though deluded) loyalty and goodwill like this.
I’m blessed that two of my closest rellies are sceptics too, so we can discuss it freely and support one another. One is an experienced nurse and her opinions are very valuable. We tend to choose our words carefully when speaking to all the others.
For the first time in my life I am glad I don’t have my parents any more. To have seen their confusion and pain over all this would have been hard to bear – so I do sympathise.
Exactly- no one wants to feel this isolated with the realisation that we’re in an insane and evil world and I try to unthink it but the evidence is staring us in the face. I realised it the day lockdown started almost a year ago and have lived with that since then but can hardly dare to talk about it now because to question the vaccine seems cruel when so many of my friends and family have had it. It’s too late.
I couldn’t agree more. It’s knowing that our loved ones MAY have been allowed by our evil ”leaders” to put themselves in danger is appalling. I feel desperately worried – and I should love to be proved wrong about this ‘jab’.
I just make people aware of some facts, tell them about IFR, many don’t believe when I tell them, I point them to Ioannidis published report on the WHO website, It’s official I say. Those that take that on board become less frightened.
I then try and explain about the PCR test, Almost all didn’t even know what this test is. Oh that’s why there’s so many asymptomatic people because the test says it’s wrong.
Then I scare them about facemasks, saying how it causes lung cancer and fungal pneumonia and that every time you touch your mask you should immediately dispose it and wash your hands otherwise you’ll catch it.
I can’t be bothered now with the fact it’s all a scam. If the elite want to depopulate the planet maybe it’s best to start with those who haven’t asked a single question yet!! Probably best for mankind.
I was thinking like this just a few minutes ago, how nice it would be to be a sheep. To just go along with this and trust everything will be ok.
Especially here in Britain, where it gets more draconian every day.
But as someone said the sheep lives in fear of the wolf and in the end is betrayed by the shepherd .
Fools, said I, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
Thursday 8pm. Another vibrant evening in the capital.
How long can this persist.Running empty trains,tubes and buses.Outside of the builders rush in the morning they are deserted.
Madness. I hadn’t even noticed when I took it, but look at the three signs in that picture – one telling you to wash your hands, one telling you to wear a mask, and one telling you to keep your distance. What the hell have we been reduced to?
I’ve travelled all over the country with my new lockdown job.Its the same everywhere.Empty buses and trains.
Empty trains, running on an empty underground, in an empty city…
…ran by a man with an empty head.
I am a bus driver, and it’s soul destroying running around empty most of the day.
Buses serve one purpose, to get folk from A to B
Studies already proved there’s virtually no chance of catching Covid on public transport so why are folk still so terrified of using it????
I don’t feel at risk driving my bus, I just wish the passengers would feel the same.
@IvanDp, No where to go? Muzzle mandate.
Happy to get on a bus, but where is there to go?
i think i got some message from dr s office weesk ago i ignored it also because is too much trouble the password stuff, now from reading comments here i wonder if it was to get a vaccine . well they can forget about that ! will keep ignoring . will not be getting any vaccine . ever .
Just endured the ‘celebrity’ vax ad. Apart from several untruths (eg the vax is the only way to boost your immune system against covid) it leaves viewers with absolutely no doubt that taking the vax is the way out of restrictions. Shame on those appearing in it, and those who commissioned it.
Does it say there are no other immunity remedies right enough? Blatant lies. They’ve no shame.
Says herd immunity not a solution as too many would get infected ? !
It’s dreadful, more state sponsored emotional blackmail and coercion.
However it goes on for so long, I’m sure it’s way beyond holding the attention of its intended audience.
Trump had Atlas, Biden has Slavitt. Oh he’s a real good one this guy
https://mobile.twitter.com/OBusybody/status/1362241057300316163
Slavitt is a knob, isn’t he?
Ron DeSantis listened to every word Martin Kulldorff said to him. Result… Florida is doing fine.
He’s not got much to offer but loyalty to the narrative and that’s why Biden picked the numpty
At some point, the focus has to shift from the virus to the birth rate.
People from different households must be allowed to meet, socialise and ultimately reproduce. This has to happen win lose or draw with the virus, it’s just a matter of when.
Lockdown, face masks, social distancing and vaccine passports have to go, in the long run it’s about the birth rate.
There are many reasons why lock down should end, but when you’re my age fornicating isn’t a priority.
I thought that was the point to de-populate
I think that’s all part of the plan. young people don’t need an education, because they’re not going to have jobs. they don’t need to meet each other because they’re never going to fall in love, marry or have children.
Sir Desmond Swayne: There’s an urgency for Boris Johnson to lift lockdown | 18-Feb-21
The sad fact is that there are STILL people, LOTS OF THEM, who believe everything that the government says. I met one of them today. And he thinks that there are FEWER people who believe like me, i.e. I am in a diminishing number. What can you say to people like that??
I wish she’d let her guests talk, instead of lecturing them at length about the subject!
Sir Desmond has clearly grasped the point of herd immunity attenuating the viral mutations while lockdown makes them more virulent. He seems to have a good grasp of the stats too.
Apparently ( according to the Daily Mail) experts are confused as to why covid is falling so fast all around the world because wait for it……
It’s to early for it to be as a result of the vaccines! I’ d love to be in a room with these twats as they desperately try to come up with a reason any reason other than the bloody obvious. Herd immunity and seasonality.
Dickheads!!!!!!
Along with the reduced PCR cycle parameters.
And the inauguration of Joe Biden. Inauguration and reduced PCR cycles happened at the same time. Coincidence?
Indeed, yet another coincidence!
It’s as if they can’t quite force themselves to accept the obvious – it’s a seasonal, now endemic, respiratory virus that does whatever other similar organisms do.
Maybe they’ve got SO used to being ever SO important and revered by MSM, and don’t want to go back to everyday life
Yes, the now minted Imperials, don’t want to go back to life as before when epidemiolgists had about as much sexiness about them as chartered accountants.
I watched a bit of Ch4 news. John Snow said Lockdown is working as cases are going down.
Spontanously burst out laughing, hadn’t heard such a good joke in a long time.
As usual their other reporting was misleading – deaths in 24hrs etc.
Has been reported on all MSM TV channels and in the MSM press. Correlation being assumed as causation as numbers fall but when numbers were rising correlation was NOT assumed to be causation!
Curiously enough, I happened to collide with the BBC News earlier (for the first time in months) and they were playing exactly the same tune: cases/deaths falling proves that lockdown is working. BUT, more cases occuring in the young so don’t think about relaxing. Then some indistinct graphs to prove both assertions. Then: vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate; perfectly safe because we say so. I suspect that if I’d turned over to ITN or Sky, there would have been no difference whatsoever.
Too soon? They are running cover there. The average time from symptoms to death for fatal Covid cases is around 7 days. There should have been a much earlier dropping off of Covid deaths as the vulnerable population were vaccinated since they make up something like 90% of Covid deaths. It didn’t happen and if you aren’t a vaxomaniac you will have been able to tell from the MSM and medico-academical establishment response that they were puzzled by this. In Israel even the head of the vaccine programme admitted his disappointment.
I believe we are seeing a very mixed picture:
I think these are the three main variables affecting the Covid death rates. 1&2 explain why we are now seeing a steep fall and 3 explains why there was a delay of a couple of weeks in the steep fall.There was a tell-tale news report today that death rates in care homes were in v. steep decline. Not surprising as a combination of Covid and the vaccine will have consumed the weakest there.
Apparently there’s talk of a link between the Astrazenica poison and the new “deadly” mutants. We’ve had the Kent, Brazil and South Africa mutants and apparently these were the regions where the poison trials happend , is this true? Does anybody have a link to where they did the trials?
UK column raised the issue but there is no hard evidence,but an interesting coincidence none the less.
https://www.hartgroup.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/HART-Mutants-and-Borders.pdf
“There is also a theory that the new variants being identified are a direct result of a vaccine-stimulated response. It is worth noting that many of these new variants emerged in countries that had already conducted vaccine trials, ie. South Africa, Brazil and the UK. Given the reported clusters of sudden outbreaks of COVID-19 in care home residents and staff in the days following the vaccination programme, this observation would benefit from further investigation.1 2”
Ahh exactly the trials
Have been searching desperately around for dissenting voices and journalism academia and have been struck by the utter hypocrisy.
For example, I read quite a bit of Chomsky as a student. He practically wrote the book on media manipulation and illusions of consent. One look on amazon today and his best seller “manufacturing consent” is still highly rated.
I am traditionally left wing and I know that many right wingers hate him, but it would be ridiculous to deny his intellectual status and body of work, whatever your personal politics.
Anyway, I had imagined that he would be vociferous in his condemnation of current events.
How wrong I was…..
This is taken from a recent University speech.
“I mean, do you have an individual right to take an assault rifle and go to the supermarket or mall and start shooting randomly?” he questioned. “That’s what it means not to wear a mask. It’s a strange kind of individualism.”
What I struggle with is the constant double standards. Free speech is vital…. unless you denounce lockdowns.
Imprisonment is wrong…. unless it is related to Covid.
Bodily autonomy is sacrosanct…. until it relates to compulsory vaccines.
Simply because they agree with the end point (in this case zero covid) people far smarter than myself, people that often have spent lifetimes championing liberty, are consciously closing their eyes to the death of liberty.
That is what I do not understand.
He´s just afraid of death.
Weird that the author of “Manufacturing Consent” would fall for this scam!
I tried to order the book in the early 1990s. It had been taken off the list, the bookshop chain weren’t allowed to sell it!
I know! It’s like the author of a series of books entitled “don’t panic. Your government and media are trying to scare you” is now shouting at everyone to panic.
Political affiliations aside, I don’t see how somebody this intrinsically linked to the power of propaganda has just accepted propaganda.
Chomsky failed the 911 litmus test. Conspiracy? Not interested. He has been called a gatekeeper by many and i wouldnt disagree with that. Been earning a crust from the system he purports to critique all his life.
I used to think Chomsky was the man for rebellious academia. Then I found Michael Parenti.
Sadly not with us anymore
https://youtu.be/_aJArigViMU
Like all of these activist academics that plague us to this day.
Oh dear. Of course 911 was a conspiracy. An Islamic terrorist conspiracy.
Debate that. Anytime. Anywhere. Trained pilots for 45 years. Believe me someone with minimal skills simply couldn’t do that.
Suspect irony.
Nope. I choose my conspiracies wisely.
They weren’t untrained, fool. They’d all been on training courses.
I pointed out to somebody the other day- it might have been on another site- that Chomsky has either lost the plot in extreme old age (he recently opined that Donald Trump is (“Literally the worst criminal in history”), or else he has always been merely anti-American. (And the theories of linguistics which originally propelled him to fame have now been refuted.)
Chomsky has always been a chancer and he came very close to denying the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia. He was certainly a Khmer Rouge apologist.
I had thought this about Chomsky.
But the paper released on mass hysteria postedon here regularly over tbe last week is excellent in dissection of this. I wonder does he read such papers and think they are mad rantings. Anyway here is Chomsky defending free speech back in the day.
https://youtu.be/ydtEp2xTeJs
If a politician was this committed to freedom right now, they would never countenance the coercion with vaccines going on right now.
We cannot attribute universal wisdom to those whose words we may admire. All are subject to individual or selective preference. Being ‘left’ does not need an apology. Chomsky has wisdom but not a monopoly. We must realise that to be fiercely LS does not mean a requirement to be right wing. There are those of us who actually care for our fellow man. This fulfilling both the LS and the non extreme agenda.
Why state he is far smarter than yourself – obviously he isn’t. Some of the thickest people I have met have PhDs and having studies applied linguistic, Chomsky made little impression on me in that field.
“I am traditionally left wing and I know that many right wingers hate him, but it would be ridiculous to deny his intellectual status and body of work, whatever your personal politics.”
I’m of the right, but also antiwar and I have respected Chomsky’s work in the latter areas while disagreeing vehemently with most of his political opinions.
On the other hand, probably by some distance the most intellectually gifted politician we ever had in Britain was Enoch Powell (check out his academic record if you question this), but his intellect is automatically disregarded by his critics (and by the ignorant mainstream, who have swallowed the dishonest smearing of him as a racist thug).
We all carelessly sling terms like “idiot” around (most of us do anyway, and I certainly do myself) for people we disagree with, but Chomsky is one of the best examples, for me of how inapt that term really is. The reality is that the world is a sufficiently complex place that no amount of wisdom or intellect (nor education, either) is any guarantee of reaching the “correct” conclusion on anything.
Being both strongly conservative and strongly opposed to wars of choice, I’ve always been aware of this – having many of the people whose opinions on wars and confrontations I despise the most on my own side of the main political divide, and the converse.
Bring it to the microscosm of LS, and RickH and I annoy each other endlessly with our wider political opinions, but I’ve no problem in saying that I have full respect for his overall intellect and competence, as witnessed by the many excellent analytical posts he makes here.
This is one of the reasons I genuinely do not want to exercise the power the left currently does, of systematically excluding conservative and traditionalist (“racist” “bigoted”, etc) opinions from the public sphere. Unlike them, I genuinely do know that few individuals are devoid of useful contribution. If the right were in the position to enforce “cancel culture” and censorship in the way the left does, Chomsky would have been stripped of his positions and banned from most public forums, and his opinions excluded from all mainstream publications, as those of “racists” etc are today, for his “dangerous” and “offensive” political opinions. But that would have cost us one of our effective voices against the use of war as a tool of policy. It’s a slightly distinct argument for freedom of opinion than the usual one, but still apt, imo.
22 year old son was born with a heart murmur. Never been an issue but just been invited for vaccination. Lengthy discussions tonight and will be ongoing. Family are not quite in the same boat as me.
Good luck!
I hope you prevail. I dread getting a letter for my son who has 2 auto immune conditions. We need to know relative risks. Good luck.
Of course he shouldn’t have it. Insist on speaking to your GP and ask for exemption or their (recorded) assurance that he will be alright. Say you will of course hold them responsible if he isn’t.
Don’t worry. I’d dress up as him with a big mask on and go myself if it comes to it.
Horrible situation, this kind of family division. Another piece of nastiness to blame the panickers for.
I’ve taken the view that since my offspring are all adults, they will ultimately have to make their own decisions, and while they all know my views I’m not going to get bent out of shape if they choose differently. I have no reason to suppose either taking the vaccine or not taking it involves particularly significant risks, even for most of the theoretically “vulnerable” people, though the uncertainty is much greater with the vaccine.
I’m not aware of any close family members who have taken it or plan to, yet, though it’s quite possible they wouldn’t have mentioned it (bearing in mind we have four adult children living in four different cities, in three countries).
It’s just after 11.00pm, barely a car on the road, yet the fucking ambulance sirens keep wailing. I can barely stick my head out of the back door these days without having to listen to them. Am I being neurotic to think that it’s all done to ramp up the fear factor, and hammer home some more propaganda?
Never hear any ambulances round here. Can’t remember when I last saw one either!
They shouldn’t need sirens at this time of night. Psy-Op!
I’m sure it is psy-op, Cheezilla. I first noticed the increase at the start of the first lockdown, and there was an easing off in the summer. They starting wailing again with more frequency at the start of each new lockdown and have continued that way ever since. As you say, no need whatsoever for sirens at this time of night. The town is deserted.
Oh I never forget for a few days in April in lockdown 1 watching police cars with sirens on drive around London (watched from a high rise) – it was mad. Totally to scare people!
Is that you, Grannyslayer?
Seems to be pretty much how it is here.
Seem to be driving around my small town all the time. Don’t seem to be in a rush but the sirens go on when around residential areas. Maybe it’s always been that way, not something I would have registered.
You’ll probably notice them all of the time now!
yup same round my way too – always sirens full blast!
It drives me nuts.
They’ve been doing this round here since March last year. I’d love to hear anonymously from any ambulance driver who can explain why they have been told to do this.
I’d be very interested to know why, although I can guess.
..desperate to get home to see Boris & Hancock’s latest appearance on the small screen?!
That, and reminding the plebs that we are still in the midst of a ‘pandemic’
I think it was confirmed they were asked to have their lights flashing at all times when on the move, during the first lockdown, to help heighten the sense of crisis. There have been no confirmed reports I know of telling them to use their sirens. If traffic levels are generally lower at night (quite likely given the death of the night time economy) the usual sirens in built up conurbations will be perceieved as being louder.
I used to live near our local hospital and we very rarely heard sirens at night – though their radios used to cause our old freeview box to change channels!
Sirens are only necessary when there’s traffic to clear. At night they can just drive on the wrong side of the road if necessary.
It’s not just a case of clearing traffic – they use sirens at hazardous crossroads as well. There are plenty of those in places like central London. Whether they use sirens close to a hospital entrance will depend on the local road layout.
Hmmm…I don’t know. I’m not hearing any sirens here.
Count yourself lucky then. It drives me to distraction.
They are probably really busy dealing with attempted suicides, heart attacks, strokes, pulmonary embolisms, terminally ill and elderly people having difficulties at home, people going crazy, people assaulting each other, people hurting themselves when drunk, self harming, calling an ambulance for medical attention because they can’t see a doctor or get into A&E, all kinds of things.
Hardly any covid calls, I looked at 999 and 111 daily triage calls in West Berks the numbers are two and ten.
https://www.berkshirepublichealth.co.uk/covid-19-dashboard?view=cases&location=West+Berkshire
THIS IS FOR THE WHOLE OF WEST BERKSHIRE!!!!
They did that around here in the first few weeks of lockdown 1, haven’t heard them since though
Aldi trip earlier tonight. Only four or five other customers besides me. One of them with a scarf worn more-or-less over his mouth. Another with hand poised ready to pull her mask up when she thought she might be spotted and then pushed it back under her chin.
Ironically, I’d already asked an unmuzzled member off staff to help me locate something, no problem.
A muzzled staff member out on the floor acknowledged me cheerfully with the standard “You OK?” Another, muzzled as she made her way to the staffroom, announced “Hiya! Y’allright?!” when she saw me. And no covid-safe announcements. Felt good!
Am currently watching Zorro with my Granddaughter. We could do with a Zorro or two!
I had a LIDL trip tonight. 100% mask compliance as always. Masks will never end until government says so, therefore they will never end.
Didn’t Lidl say they weren’t going to question people coming in without masks? I will be checking them out soon. I’ve never been in a large supermarket where mask compliance was 100% – not even a small one as I am the non-compliant person!
That’s true 100% bar me tonight. I had no queries but I deliberately go late at night as seems to be less hassle.
I go late so I don’t have to queue. I’m usually in and out in 20 mins.
Film for just had Valkyrie on and next alone and Berlin. Are they trying to tell us something?
The jellyfish in the state of Michigan continue to sit there and take it as restaurant restrictions are ‘quietly’ extended to the end of March:
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/02/18/gretchen-whitmer-quietly-extended-restaurant-restrictions-march-29/
I was expecting some real jellyfish then. Disappointed!
Is it strange that mass vaccination for care staff mainly result in 30% of them being sick with side effects?
Always 30%?1? Or maybe 33, but the extra 3 do not get reported.
The very good show Basta Berlin, Russian funded news programme, today listed 25 care homes with significant outbreaks after vaccination.
All reported in newspapers, at least they are not brushing it under the carpet. of course they all had covid before they got vaccinated, just did not test + then.
Oh look! It’s just another one of those coincidences the authorities keep telling us about.
What are We to Make of the 40.5% Hospital Acquired Covid Infection?
The slogan should have been ‘Save us from the NHS’
I don’t even think those working in the NHS will be aware of this news. Too busy patting themselves on the back. The brainwashing is so deeply ingrained at this stage
I’d expect sceptics to look beyond this anti NHS propaganda and give the figures the same scrutiny we do all the other data. The timescale of the testing doesn’t support contracting the covids in hospital, and the false positives will still make up a proportion of them. And as we know masks and other precautions don’t work so you’re as likely to catch it in any place where people congregate- hospital, supermarket etc, the NHS doesnt have a magic wand that can stop viruses travelling.
The 40.5% nosocomial figure is NOT propaganda; it’s the numbers that SAGE are reporting.
Catch what?
A friend, who works as a phlebotomist at the local hospital, told me they were shoving non-covid patients into wards which had covid patients. Basically, wherever they could fit them in, with no segregation. My neighbour’s elderly mother had a fall just before Christmas. She was taken to hospital against her wishes, caught the bloody virus there and died.
My city is one of only 16 areas with a recent increase in ‘cases’, virtually all of them are within HMP.
Where do they count? Hardly community cases.
A nation brainwashed
A nation lobotomised?
Before Christmas this site regularly had over 2000 comments a day.
Now it seems to struggle to get over 1800.
The LS editorial line that “vaccines will make us free” is somewhat to blame I feel.
This month the comments count has been around two thousand half the time (and the comment count invariably drops at weekends).
Attempts to perform Kochs Postulate failed Virologist Examines 1,500 “Covid positive” Tests to find Influenza A and B: Unable to find any trace of “Covid-19”!
The first step in the development of a vaccine is the isolation of the causative agent: in this case the novel coronavirus. We are daily told about vaccines against this disease, but no one has isolated the virus.
Yup, dunno who this chap is, trying to find out if he’s credible. This video won’t last long because he’s asserting Covid-19 doesn’t exist.
The assertion that the virus has not been isolated is uncontroversial. The developers of the so called vaccines used the genetic code provided by China to create their products, as did the developers of the tests.
It’s uncontroversial for you & me perhaps, but google, facebook etc don’t seem to agree. He’s asserting CDC have lied, covid is a fiction.
I’ve never seen TY on LS say its fake
The CDC has publicly acknowledged that the virus has not been isolated.
I have no idea why anyone would go to the tech corporations for scientific information.
Just checked the CDC website. They are now claiming that they have the isolated virus and have cultured it and that they are prepared to provide to anyone who has the appropriate expertise and facilities. This is not what they were saying only a couple of months ago. The page is dated 29 December 2020. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/lab/grows-virus-cell-culture.html
Isn’t this the 1500 tests that Delores Cahill was talking about back in December. ?
Hardly any comments allowed on articles related to Covid, Blair or the LD in the DT – they must be getting upset at the mainly sceptical, outright critical comments. One strangely states no comments allowed until 6am – is this when 77th are back on duty lol.
You old cynic, Hattie.
Seriously, though. Can you imagine what the comments on the Blair nonsense are going to be like when they do open up? The final paragraph alone will get hammered:
Containment infrastucture? Digital health passes?
Same old Blair.
I note also Johnson recommending aiming from 300 days ( why days not months, probably makes it sound longer) for any new vaccine to 100 days. So, didnt take long for the slippery slope to get more slippery- a one off temporary emergency approval of a vaccine now morphs into new vaccines, previously taking years before approval, now rolled out in 3 months. Well at least guinea pigs can sigh in relief as they will no longer be needed.
Wonder what the intended incentives for isolation are – if you don’t adhere, threats of cutting off your power supply, access to food, or just gaol or a bullet.
Quite possibly. The whole article is full of rubbish. This caught my eye:
Now, I was under the impression that “the virus took off again” when the Regime started mass testing students at the start of September. Yep, just checked the Gov’s own numbers and the mass testing of students resulting in thousands of postive PCR results ended the totally flat numbers over the Summer.
Nice try, Tony.
Just heard Classic FM news, first time in weeks that I’ve not hit the off button 4 mins before the hour at the start of the atrocious Covid ads. Anyhoo, apparently – we’ve just landed on Mars, Boris is going to donate excess vaccines to poorer countries and a study out found that boys that play video games from a young age are less likely to suffer depression when they’re older.
No words.
“a study out found that boys that play video games from a young age are less likely to suffer depression when they’re older.”
At first sight sounds like a bad case of indigestion from intervening variables.
