Profanity and abuse will be removed and may lead to a permanent ban.
Just to be clear – there is no exit plan, just an endless cycle of variant, lockdown, new vaccine, according to the current logic of Boris and his Rasputin like advisors. Right?
Hardly Rasputin. Rasputin was vigorous, anarchic, with a huge appetite for life. Bojo’s demons are withered turnips.
They may prove as hard to shift though. (I heard about Rasputin’s appetites).
There is a feet first exit plan. It’s always been about depopulation.
It won’t work, then. Nothing has ever stopped the rise in human population, except the Black Death, and even that not for long.
Those that have been vaccinated have effectively signed up for early elimination. To me, the plan seems to be working very well, as the brain-dead masses roll up their sleeves in droves or perhaps flocks would be more apt.
Vaccine refuseniks are clearly a very real concern for the depopulators, as in a reverse way, they are the canary in the coal mine and too many of them refusing to take the early bus out will make it crystal clear just what is going on when the rest are dropping like flies. To counter this very real danger, the government vaxxers will do all they can to persuade cajole coerce shame bully and eventually force the refuseniks to take their lethal medicine like good little sheep.
According to that study this week refuseniks have more logical thinking, so isn’t it a good thing that we are left, to re-organise a “better” society?
If I were a depopulation eugenecist (I’m not, but just supposing) I’d try to engineer a situation where the most impractical, gullible and herd like voluntarily did for themselves while selecting for those who are the opposite.
Could the Daily stuffing Mail possibly report on how much more likely people who die of (or even with) covid are to have low levels of vitamin D rather than high levels of vitamin D – or is that now banned by their paymasters?
Funnily enough, I have in my hand a Daily Mail article from April 21, 2020 about “how sunshine vitamin is a bright new hope to fight the crisis”. I suppose though, that now they are having to pretend that there are no alternative treatments in order to protect the emergency authorisation of the experimental gene therapy drugs, they are no longer allowed to print stuff like that.
Incidentally, the article contains this gem – “one in five people in the UK, under normal circumstances, has a vitamin D deficiency. Now, with the coronavirus lockdown meaning little time outside in the sunlight, our levels could be even lower”. One wonders how many health problems are being caused by these lockdowns – lack of vitamin D, lack of exercise, too much drink, stress, cancelled treatment – nothing major.then.
One in five?
People with dark skins…?
less able to absorb vitamin D. Also more likely to suffer from coronavirus. Not that vitamin D protects against viruses or anything. Also one in three black people who are “vaccine hesitant” (sorry). Like I said, apartheid Britain – no blacks, no Irish, no unvaccinated.
Why on earth are healthy under 40’s having these “vaccines” anyway? Oh yes, of course, to save old people. And never mind that quite a lot of old people died (were killed?) in the weeks after the “vaccinations” started. And died (were killed?) when infectious people were sent from hospitals into care homes. And died (were killed?) when “do not resuscitate” orders were put on them. And died (were killed?) after losing the will to live under effective house arrest in care homes.
In the US – “Deaths from suicides and drugs overdoses among high school students far outweighed their deaths from covid”. And just to be clear – there was “a 333% increase in intentional self-harm claims among young people aged 12-18 from the period August 2019 to August 2020”. When did it become acceptable to kill children to slow the spread of a virus? It might be worth asking lockdown zealots if they reallise that their lockdowns are killing children. And taking food out of the mouths of hungry children. And making their lives miserable. And then insist they give a proper answer. Whatever happened to helping damsels in distress? Let’s be clear, this is a bigger scandal than Bhopal. And should be treated as such when the reckoning comes.
The Carthaginians burned children alive to placate their demon gods.
The Romans destroyed Carthage and ploughed salt into the ruins.
Well done, Romans.
They destroyed the Druids for the same reason.
Er, they didn’t destroy Carthage because of child sacrifice. They destroyed Carthage because they were uppity non-Romans who didn’t know their place.
They wanted the wheat growing areas that, back then, were between the Atlas mountains and the Med to make the bread to go with the circuses in Rome. No Empire without food.
Interesting stuff. Unfortunately, it may be a moot point if this world war happens within a few years, or even a few months. I’ve long feared that there could be a rerun of the 1930’s, and the hysterical, suicidal nonsense of the past year has made it more likely. The Euro’s probably knackered as well(“fears loom in Spanish tourism industry”).
I meant to add, I was reading about Stanley Baldwin, who didn’t stand on a platform of rearming Britain in 1936 because there was no appetite among the electorate. (And Labour were vehemently opposed to it).
Since 2008, there has been a similar lack of appetite for cuts and an end to quantitative easing etc. I’m afraid things tend not to get done until it is too late, and it looks like being the same with these catastrophic lockdowns.
If any Brit or Kraut wanted to go to totally-muzzled Spain anyway, they must have been dotty.
how many years, I wonder, until the unvaccinated, untested second class citizens can go to any country of their choosing?
Spaniards are muzzled now? how extraordinary! Have the Moors returned or something? (though to be fair they did preserve many books of antiquity).
Muzzled everywhere, inside and out. Men as well as women, which I suppose is an advance in equality since Arab times.
not quite, please see my comment above
Thanks for the update, peyrole!
FYI nowhere does in the Quran does it state that women should be ‘masked’. That is a edict of man. Rather like the measures blamed on ‘Covid 19’, which are also mandated and enforced by man.
Spain went completely nuts introducing a ‘masks everwhere’ outside in March. They have subsequently relented to concerted attack, to go back to the previous ‘rule’. Which is still pretty stupid, but allows you eat and drink, sunbathe, swim and walk outside built up areas without a mask as long as you are not in a group ( group is undefined). I suspect this has much to do with the Federal Govt and Madrid Council waging continous war as anything else.
My experience on the Canaries earlier this year was that people did conform in shops and town centres and did not virtually anywhere else. Local police couldn’t give a damn, but the feds were their usual ‘nazi’ selves.
We were in Spain last July. I made the point then that masks were not needed outdoors. Social distancing was taking place at about fifty metres-even at the market we were ten metres apart as there were so few people there. This was in a resort which is normally busy in summer.
Please get over the illusion that psychopaths like Johnson and Hancock are acting in our best interests – they are not! They are taunting us, humiliating us, torturing us, mocking us. Like all bullies, they only understand one thing and they must be stood up to, otherwise it will never end. What is needed now is bravery, courage and determination. This needs to end.
Have Your Had Your Jab Yet Part 1, an excellent article from an unlikely source. Very worth reading in full.
the LeftLockdownSceptic site has some very good articles of a generally high standard, not regurgitations of MSM articles. A bit like Off Guardian where Kit Knightly regularly excells.
Yes – I was quite happy to be proven a conspiracy quack for my neverending ‘you do know it’s not going to end don’t you’ conversations. But on the other hand, at least we can say ‘told you so’. It’s a very depressing win win really isn’t it.
Covid Marshal Grade 2 – a brilliant start to the day:-)
The dictionary meaning of “conspiracy” includes the word “plan” which doesn’t quite gel with on-the-hoof opportunism. I’ve always tried to maintain the “why” doesn’t matter, but the trouble is people want to know what you think the “why” is and they cannot believe that there’s a grand plan with strings being pulled and neither can they believe that so many governments and institutions around the world could all be simultaneously stupid, so they just assume what’s being done is right and necessary.
The data regarding real-world vaccine efficacy seems unclear to me – I have not been able to establish whether getting jabbed is a good idea for me personally and given that trials don’t end until 2023 prefer to wait until the data is clearer – if it ever will be given the way it has been deliberately obfuscated.
I changed someone’s mind re the vaccine when I asked if she would participate in a drug trial
One at a time…
I find my perception has shifted. My natural logical inclination (good ole’ Occam) is not to resort to conspiracy explanations until and unless …
But collusions and convergence of interests now seem more probable, with the assistance of stupidity and gullibility.
The over-reach of the ‘vaccine’ PR campaign should alert anyone with intelligence to a situation of dodgy dealing, when the experimental nature of the snake oil and its side effects are concealed in a propaganda blitz.
The comprehensiveness of mental illness induced by brainwashing should not be underestimated.
I rather fancy myself as a Valkyrie.
Or as Susan, Death’s granddaughter, deputising for him.
Well, I’ve got the scythe. And I ride Binkie.
I’m stunned – Telegraph today:
“Coronavirus latest news: Indian variant only severely affects the unvaccinated, says Government advisor”
“Boris Johnson: Indian variant poses real risk of disruption to our plans”
“Vaccine hesitancy could be behind rise of the Indian Covid variant”
Pretty obvious now the election is done, the can start back in on the restrictions, segregation and coercion once again.
Yeap, was to be expected
Sad that ‘the left’ have their own designated anti lockdown website. Why does it have to have that monicker??? Can’t they drag themselves out of their stupid bubble?
There is an advantage to it being titled as Left, otherwise anything lockdown sceptical can be easily dismissed as Right Wing. If it brings more folk over from the Dark Side, it’s fine by me.
Well if it serves to bring more of us on board then why not
What a daft comment. It should be fairly obvious, given the tendency of monomaniac shit-pedlars to try to portray this as a ‘left’ conspiracy, despite it being initiated by a right-wing government!
Toby Young : “the cure might be worse than the disease”.
Whaaaat????? ‘might be’ ??? Of course it f.ing is!!!!!
If it does happen it’s going to be hard for the vaccinated to take on the chin lol. The only out I can see for the Govt is to blame the unvaccinated and try to turn their ire on those people instead. Maybe if we were forced by our betters to wear an armband it would help Boris out of this fix?
My money is on “Covid-21” to explain away all the vaccine-related deaths.
The Boris government has caused more destruction to this country than any PM in living memory. According to a top US intelligence source, Dr Steve Pieczenik, we should be very wary when dealing with Boris. Here is what Steve said:
OPUS 168 Boris Badenov Johnson
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuXwyO7XmNU
Here is a production from Happen Network called “The New Normal” featuring a section from a Boris at the UN speech where he suggests our lives should be dominated and surveilled to a degree you could never imagine in your worst nightmares. He also says:
“AI. What will it mean? Helpful robots washing and caring for an ageing population or pink eyed terminators sent back from the future to cull the human race?”.
Everyone cool with that? The Boris section starts around 31 minutes into the doc. Just before that is a clip of Tony Blair saying how microchips are a natural development. The whole production is excellent and “worth watching in full”

That last section wouldn’t be so chilling were it not for the fact that his father Stanley Johnson is a staunch advocate and promoter of depopulation.

Right on Toby. The nightmare SAGE committee and its political aims needs to be fully investigated.
They need fucking executing.
“Refuse. Rebut. Resist. Revolt.”
I don’t disagree with you, but the FEAR has to be counteracted – and that is the difficult virus to deal with.
Just read this: https://globalnews.ca/news/7862132/covid-19-church-of-god-aylmer-locked/?fbclid=IwAR37Wedi9zAncDmxsjZlm2sknx5-98vk9dAIs_A1CgUuu6C8aVAWcdiFF-Q. Out of curiosity I looked up Aylmer, Ontario on Google maps. Turns out it’s just down the road from Orwell!
“…Indian variant only severely affects the unvaccinated, says Government advisor” (today’s Telegraph).
Hey, that “news” is extreme fortuitous, cough, for pro-vaxxers and Big Pharma. Vaccine hesitants will thus be encouraged to step forward for the barely tested filthy concoction.
If this fails the despots have doubtless also got other deadly variants, as yet unnamed, waiting.
All in line with little Billy Gates’ promise to jab the whole world. Thus his nickname: “Gates the p**ck”.
This article is excellent, and is a very good summary of what we talk about here all day. An excellent resource.
Nothing annoys me more than Americans calling authoritarians “Liberals”.
I’m minded of Johnson and Big Pharma as a collective Alberich, nicking the gold whilst the institutions of the gods piss about uselessly.
How depressing that someone who understands this situation as well as you do would be a promoter of the rollout of untested, extremely dangerous to health in the short/medium/long term, lethal, toxic vaccines, in the face of all the evidence which screams out loud that this rollout is the most ridiculous, destructive and costly in every single way path we could have taken. Just a quick recap – the IFR of so called Covid19 is the same as inlufenza @ 0.15%. Influenza has disappeared from death certs, replaced by Covid19, so the risk of just being alive or the risk of dying from respiratory illness has not changed. Therefore the vaccine rollout and the entire New Normal is based on lies and is therefore a non-starter, because a rational population would not make such fundamental changes based purely on fictional, made-up stories about a super virulent killer mega virus sweeping the world. Then there are all the ethical and medical considerations of rolling out not vaccines, but highly exprimental agents which use novel and dangerous delivery methods. Every aspect of this is an experiment. So why would that be a good thing, when the mortality rate is so low/normal for seasonal respiratory illness?
According the the UK Column YellowCard system which is an easy to access and use free online app enabling analysis of the harms and deaths from the “vaccine” rollout, using the official figures so you can put at least a “0” on the end of these figures, the UK has seen at least 786,350 adverse reactions and 1,143 deaths. Many of the reactions are extremely serious like blindness, paralysis, heart attacks, nervous system disorders, vascular disorders, skin disorders, blood clots and hundreds of other very serious conditions, all becaue of the “vaccine”.
COVID-19 Vaccine Analysis Overview
https://yellowcard.ukcolumn.org/yellow-card-reports?
Please, Friedrich Stapß, can you answer this question. Given that we have safe, Nobel prize winning, cheap, out of patent, effective drug treatments which we know can cure this alleged novel condition, for those who do actually get ill, how can you, an intelligent person, still endorse the vaccine rollout, looking specifically at this point of there being drugs available, and in knowledge of the fact the British medical establishment (The Lancet and Oxford University) have run sham trials to smear and rubbish drugs like HCQ (suggesting this whole episode is criminal in nature) and also keeping in mind the other points made in this post?
“we have safe, Nobel prize winning, cheap, out of patent, effective drug treatments which we know can cure this alleged novel condition”
I essentially agree with the point you’re making – but don’t over-claim. The prophylactic/preventative medications aren’t ‘cures’.
I just looked up “cure”. I’m fine to use that term. Please refrain from being so anally-retentive.
30,146,933 people in the UK have had at least one dose of one of the vaccines. 1,143 deaths is 0.004% That is comparable to your chances of being struck by lightning in your lifetime (0.007%). Of course, we have very little reason to suppose that this miniscule number of deaths were caused by the vaccine. They are just reports from anyone that feels the death might be linked to the vaccine – which is bound to happen from time to time when the programme is getting such intense media scrutiny.
Why not use the same scepticism that you apply to coronavirus deaths to reports of vaccine related deaths?
We know for a cast iron fact that vaccine deaths and injuries are being swept under the carpet. It is reasonable to say you can add a “0” to the figures that I have provided from the database, because we know a maximum of 10% of actual deaths and events actually get added to the system.
It’s not about the deaths only, it’s about the people who have to spend the rest of their lives in wheelchairs, those left permanently disabled, the blinded, their quality of life may never return. There are 786,350 adverse events registered, many of them extremely serious conditions. The real figure is well into the millions. Don’t you fucking dare come on here and try to tell me this is somehow OK.
These are the events we know about so far. On top of these, there are all the medium and long term conditions which scientists of integrity who are also highly respected in their fields are screaming from the rooftops about. These include cancer and Antibody Dependent Enhancement.
Regarding ADE, a number of Covid19 “vaccine” victims are likely to have a lifetime of much more severe forms of Coronavirus and respiratory disease than they would otherwise have had to look forward to, which could even kill them. Because this is an experiment, we are not sure what is going to heappen with this.
The cause for concern is the fact that ADE and Pathogenic Priming has been observed in all animal trials during previous attempts at bringing Coronavirus vaccines to market. All these previous attempts failed animal trials and never reached human trials because of pathogenic priming and ADE. For Covid19 they skipped animal trials and went striaght to human testing without providing any proof that the ADE issue has been resolved. So they have literally signed up 35 million Brits for a sick game of Russian Roulette, where they might start getting really nasty forms of respiratory disease. How much of an issue this becomes remains to be seen, but there are many published science documents highlighting this problem whichis a real issue.
The people who have authorised and promoted this rollout have some serious explaining to do. Likewise with the people who have been covering up the effectiveness of drugs like Ivermectin and HCQ, to create an optimal environment for the vaccine companies. These people are the real disease.
Informed consent disclosure to vaccine trial subjects of risk of COVID‐19 vaccines worsening clinical disease
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ijcp.13795
“Results of the study
COVID‐19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralising antibodies may sensitise vaccine recipients to more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated. Vaccines for SARS, MERS and RSV have never been approved, and the data generated in the development and testing of these vaccines suggest a serious mechanistic concern: that vaccines designed empirically using the traditional approach (consisting of the unmodified or minimally modified coronavirus viral spike to elicit neutralising antibodies), be they composed of protein, viral vector, DNA or RNA and irrespective of delivery method, may worsen COVID‐19 disease via antibody‐dependent enhancement (ADE). This risk is sufficiently obscured in clinical trial protocols and consent forms for ongoing COVID‐19 vaccine trials that adequate patient comprehension of this risk is unlikely to occur, obviating truly informed consent by subjects in these trials.
Conclusions drawn from the study and clinical implications
The specific and significant COVID‐19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, in order to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.”
It would take a lot of time to read up properly on ADE. However, one important point jumps out from what reading I have done. ADE is equally likely to be the result of prior infection as it is from vaccination (https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/covid-19-vaccine-researchers-mindful-of-immune-enhancement-67576). You can’t win either way.
There is no value to quoting figures about deaths and injuries unless you compare them to the deaths and injuries you might have expected anyway. That is the only way you can tell statistically if the deaths and injuries are due to the vaccination (the alternative is an investigation by a competent medical professional of each death and injury).
First consider deaths. About 600,000 die in the UK every year. Just under half the population has had at least one dose and the older and more vulnerable have been prioritised – so about 300,000 of the people who have been vaccinated would be expected to die anyway in the year after they were vaccinated. So far, the average time since someone was vaccinated must be about two months. So we would expect about 50,000 people who have been vaccinated to have died for reasons unconnected to the vaccine. I am surprised that only about 1,500 deaths have been reported.
Injuries are harder because you don’t give any numbers for extremely serious so it is impossible to compare to what you might expect anyway. It is widely accepted that about 10% of people who are vaccinated get some kind of reaction. This comes out of various surveys. That’s about 3 million adverse events. So your estimate of millions is correct. However, the overwhelming majority of these are minor and temporary. Unless you can quantify “extremely serious” it means nothing.
All I ask is little scepticism!
“If infections start to surge, the risk calculus may swing in favour of giving the AstraZeneca vaccine to young people, according to MailOnline”
Well – if you can’t smell the rat, you’re sense-impaired!
Astra-Zenica won’t sell. F***! We’ve bought a shitload! Let’s try the gullible young.
Let’s try the gullible young, even though it will kill and injure a few of them.
If it saves one life it’s worth killing all the others
Yeap, the government seems to be taking the view that it is worth sacrificing 100 lives if it stops 1 person dying of Covid.
I received my latest update ( week
ending May 6th) from Shropshire health authority yesterday telling me that since mid March, there has been no Covid? deaths and there was a grand total of 2 Covid? patients in hospital and 57 new cases?, an increase of 14% from the previous week.
Why in the name of Jesus,Joseph, Mary and the wee donkey are people in our little South Shropshire town and bloody well everywhere else wearing those bloody face nappies outside in the open fresh air?????
“an increase of 14% from the previous week”
A perfect example of the use of relative rather than absolute percentages as a means of exaggeration.
Even if ‘cases’ meant actual illness – what is the increase as a percentage of the Shropshire population?
EXACTLY!!!!
This Left Lockdown Sceptics article is a worthwhile read :
“Have You Had Your Jab, Yet? Part 1”
I particularly this concise overview of the vaccine which looks at real-life (absolute) risk reduction :
“So, go about your life unvaccinated and you face bugger all chance of getting Covid. Go about your life vaccinated and your prospects of avoiding the dreaded Covid lurgi improve by less than 1% of bugger all.”
Reminding us of ye olde press gang recruiting methods of the past, vaxx impressment is now being rolled out. In short, those (after due consideration) who have already turned down the jab (ie refused to give voluntary informed consent to be jabbed despite extensive text, email and telephone harassment) are now going to be forced into it by, err, the Corona Jab Gang.
First up today that ever dependable totalitarian stalwart The Big Bro Corp launched this new drive by declaring….

I expect my local surgery to renew their attack on Monday:
“You will doubtless die of this horrendous Indian variant, as it is laced with ancient cobra venom that will avoid your natural T Cell immunity, honest, and above all you won’t be able to go to the Costa del Sol in July…”.
“Yeah, whatever…”

MAIL ON LINE: Covid deaths increase to 7, a rise of 2 from the same day last week: SHOCK/HORROR/PANIC!!!
Now, how many people have died in road accidents or falling off ladders or in assorted “freak” accidents not to mention totally unnecessary deaths by cancer and other diseases and illnesses caused by neglect bought about by this hysterical obsessional overreaction to Covid?.
