A Lockdown Sceptics reader has written to tell us about mandatory testing that’s happening at his workplace.
Regarding the story on Durham University today and lateral flow tests, you’ll probably be aware that there’s a growing problem of mandatory testing in workplaces.
I work in an office in London and we were told this week that twice-weekly tests are mandatory to come into the office. We currently have about 10 people coming in out of a possible 200+.
To make it worse, we were originally told these tests were advisory, but now apparently they are mandatory – something to do with the firm’s “duty of care to those with hidden underlying health conditions”. The people being tested are the same people who’ve been vaccinated of course, which shows the senselessness of the whole thing. And arguably makes the testing permanent, given that having been vaccinated doesn’t absolve you of the need to get tested twice a week.
People who hadn’t taken the test this week were sent home halfway through the day, despite having reasonable objections, including having recently had the virus (and so having the antibodies that meant they could neither catch it nor pass it on), and others not being prepared to risk having to self-isolate, given individual circumstances that make that impossible. Of course, companies can do as they please – but this is all so self-defeating and driven by all the wrong instincts.
Those of us grateful to still have a job and income have to pick and choose our battles. But why is there not more of an outcry over mandatory testing? Will mandatory vaccinations be next? You could make a case for all this (I personally wouldn’t) in a care home, but not in a normal office. Many people will say it’s the price we have to pay for getting back to normal, but it’s a high price.
My own circumstances are even worse but probably not unique. I refuse to comply with any of this because my partner had a miscarriage a few months ago, caused, we believe, by having to carry something heavy in her workplace which colleagues wouldn’t help with “due to the social distancing rules”. This is the true hidden horrific cost of lockdown and the other measures. She was then made to suffer alone in hospital on multiple occasions (family not allowed in), and even the paramedics were reluctant to come to the house – for a critical emergency – without ascertaining her Covid status. The cruelty of lockdown and the restrictions is my biggest bugbear, quite aside from its efficacy.
If other readers have stories about mandatory testing in their workplace, do email them to us here (saying whether you’re happy for us to publish your name).

Toby on GB News , who was the woman spouting WEF crap ?
One of the oxygen thieves responsible for our current mess, we’re surrounded by them it’s really quite depressing.
I notice our old friend Klaus was doing the opening address at the G20, and talking about the transition to the fourth industrial age. Well, Klaus, I have two questions.
I can only deduce that there are no benefits to tempt us to willingly join you in the brave future.
Yes, they are not bad speakers and they have this rather tired and superior way about them as if we’re children talking about things we don’t understand. Patronising is the word.
I don’t know Freddy. Jo somebody. Clearly a shill and a right old sinner.

How come you got 5 likes for a full stop?? LOL
Because it wasn’t pointless?
You should see what we give him/(her) for a semi-colon..
And a downtick! And you got two for laughing! I hope I don’t end up at Downticker’s Christmas Party…one stale sausage roll and a can of warm orangeade…
Full stop….I get it, sort of. Also, maybe, ‘what’s the point?’ Whatever you meant, it’s a good point!
Something I’ve noticed about suppression of free speech is that all the crazy people and ideas don’t get the ridicule they would have got in the past.
An infinite spectrum of genders being one example and there are many.
In years to come there will really be people asking “how did it come to this?”
We’re already asking ‘how did it come to this?’
I think the difference is that the people asking it now already know the answer.
Those in future will be truly seeking answers or feigning ignorance.
Trialsite News has more on the G20 health passport issue;
“Importantly, all this hyperbole is based on vaccines that failed to stop transmission of SARS-CoV-2 after a few months due to a mutating RNA virus and vaccine durability issues. Some of the COVID-19 vaccines were better than others, and while this media has reported they helped mitigate some of the damages of the global crisis, none of the vaccine products actually served to control the pandemic by stopping viral transmission. The whole point of vaccine passports would be to support vaccines that stop viral transmission.”

Exactly. So how can you emphasise that point to the cloth-eared globalist governments in a way that gets it through to them that the whole point of the ‘not’ vaccine passport is meaningless. The vaccine doesn’t stop you getting the so-called virus or of spreading it – this is even confirmed by Pfizer – so what is the point of having the pass system if not about limiting movement between borders and, no doubt at a later date, within national borders and keeping tabs on people.
“the whole point of the ‘not’ vaccine passport is meaningless.”
Not to the Davos Deviants. There are a number of purposes supported by the so-called “vaccines.”
To maim.
To kill.
And now we can add “To chip.”
Much evidence is being uncovered which proves that the injections contain micro-chips. My forecast is that within twelve months the presence of the chips will be beyond dispute.
The purpose of the chips? To injure, to track and trace (£37 billion?) and to kill either sooner or later which may well be determined by how naughty we are.
Just a sombre reminder of the latest figures from EudraVigilance. Now, aren’t we supposed to times these figures by 10 or something to get a true reflection of the damage?

Yet no country has completely banned these products yet have they? Because now we know that the politicians are mere sock puppets and the regulators dummy outfits. All take their orders from higher up, elsewhere. The Agenda comes before everything and at the expense of public safety.
Actually, make that 26 not 10. At least for the US VAERS system. This important article from yesterday explains;
“From day one, this shot crushed the upper bounds of the typical warning levels of pharmacovigilance systems that would typically trigger an automatic termination of the product’s authorization. Instead it continued to be funded, promoted, and mandated in some cases.
We also knew that those appalling levels of injury were likely underreported but couldn’t place our finger on the exact level. Well, now thanks to the court-released V-SAFE data from the CDC, we can prove that VAERS is likely underreported by a factor of 26. Thanks to the assiduous work of attorney Aaron Siri on behalf of the Informed Consent Action Network, we now know that the CDC was tracking vaccine injury all along through its V-SAFE program in which over 10 million Americans agreed to track their adverse events and report them back to the CDC via a phone app. Among those 10 million people, there were over 70 million adverse events, and nearly 8% of the 10 million had to seek medical attention, often several times, to deal with the injury or ailment. Roughly a quarter of all the individuals had to miss work the next day. And 4.2 million of the 70 million ailments were classified as being serious. This is hard data that was in the hands of the CDC for over a year and a half, and it was not disclosed to the public.”
They then go on to do some pretty frightening maths by multiplying the VAERS figures by 26.
“While certainly none of these numbers are exact and merely reflect extrapolations of a top-line URF that is likely not uniform across every ailment, it is the average URF from the CDC’s own pharmacovigilance program. Even if the numbers are a quarter or a fifth of these top lines, it would represent a government genocide of epic proportions.”
So if we do the same and multiply whatever is reported on the other adverse event reporting systems then it proves to be much worse than previously thought. Democide, genocide…whatever you wanna call it, they’re killing and maiming us alright. And every single country is complicit.

Well found and thanks for posting Mogs but firkin hell.
Hear, hear.
How is Bankman-Fried even a name? It sounds like a joke name – a ‘fried bankman’ – so many possible interpretations in that. Anyway, we have the collapse of a cryptocurrency exchange and I’m not surprised. In a way, cryptos which are invisible, digitised, coded currencies are, well, nothing. If all the world’s electricity went down for a long time, how would you even buy or sell cryptos? They rely on machines that rely on electricity right? So for the past decade or so, these emperor’s new clothes-type currencies have gained traction and been talked about and talked up to the point where they are apparently worth huge ridiculous amounts of money. It sounds like a giant Ponzi scheme to be honest. Maybe I’m missing something but surely gold, physical gold, and silver and land are worth far more even if the former two haven’t actually appreciated in value as much in the intervening time as cryptos have. So…no wonder it all collapsed although not for the reasons I’ve mentioned. Sam B-F gets burned as the sacrificial offering to protect the real criminals behind the scenes reaping the rewards with their nefarious deeds all supporting the plandemic and global totalitarianism.
A good read in conjunction with the one in the Mail and the top 2 from the Torygraph.
He really nails the disastrous performance of the Tories over the last 12 years.

I posted this in NR yesterday.
More on the vitamin D issue. Recently, I came across a comment on a comment I made to a JC YouTube entry, referring to this much older one by Ivor Cummins – 7 years old, so well ahead of the recent débacle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3pK0dccQ38 It is in the form of a lecture, and runs for well over an hour, but may be of interest. So no mention of C-19, as it hadn’t been “invented” then.

Apologies.
I can’t know, but looking at the G20, it looks to me as though it’s on its last gasp?
It seems everyone is doing their own thing..there was no sign of unity as far as I could see.
Even Klaus the louse said that the ‘vorld voz fragmented’ ……with any luck it will die a natural death, especially if the multi-polar world takes centre stage?
Fingers crossed!

I suspected that an infusion with jabbed up blood might be dangerous and this article suggests I might be right, non-scientist that I am.
https://www.technocracy.news/insane-g20-calls-for-vaccine-passports-on-all-future-international-travel/
“Technocrats at the G20 conference plotted out the next pandemic, as if it were a certainty, and concluded the best thing is to require vaccine passports for all international travel NOW in order to head off future global consequences. Yes, President Biden attended G20 on behalf of the United States. There is no global legal authority that can shoot this down.”
The Tories are doubling down on a failed economic model that is condemning workers to penury.
The party’s strategy of propping up pensioners and the welfare state via high taxes and mass migration is not sustainable, writes Juliet Samuel in the Telegraph.
And why are they doing this?
Well increasing taxes on small businesses and their wage bills at the same time is a sure fire way to see them go bust. Alongside this the government is
spending billions on pensions, welfare and immigrants which is the most certain and effective way of bankrupting the country and that is the intention.
