Lockdown Could Be Extended by “Between Two Weeks and a Month” Following “Grim” Briefing to Ministers by Whitty and Vallance

by Michael Curzon
8 June 2021 10:25 AM

On Monday, the Prime Minister’s spokesman said (and not for the first time): “[It] still remains that there is nothing in the data currently to suggest step four [of the lockdown roadmap] can’t go ahead at the earliest date.” Unfortunately, reports today are far more pessimistic about a June 21st unlock. This is largely due to a “fairly grim” briefing given to ministers by the Government’s two most senior scientific advisers on Monday. The Times has the story.

Britain’s roadmap for easing lockdown could be delayed by a fortnight with cabinet ministers increasingly pessimistic after a “downbeat” briefing from Chris Whitty and Sir Patrick Vallance.

The delay would enable all over-50s to be fully vaccinated and leave sufficient time for jabs to take effect before restrictions are lifted.

Whitty, the Chief Medical Officer for England, and Vallance, the Chief Scientific Adviser, yesterday gave a briefing to ministers on the latest data that was described as “fairly grim”.

They emphasised concerns about the rate of transmission of new strains of coronavirus, such as the Indian variant, and that vaccinations did not provide 100% protection. Millions of Britons remain unvaccinated.

One cabinet source said they expected a delay of “between two weeks and a month” but suggested that the political fallout was likely to be limited as long as the full reopening took place before the start of the school summer holidays late next month. Another said that a delay made more sense than a partial lifting of lockdown restrictions to avoid any “confusion” in messaging…

Johnson is expected to make a formal announcement on Monday, when the Government’s social distancing review will be published…

Another cabinet source described the mood in Whitehall as “downbeat”. “We always said it was June 21st at the earliest. We may need another few weeks to let the effects of vaccination take hold. Doing a partial reopening would create confusion. People have planned on the basis of a full reopening. It’s important that the messaging is consistent.”

Worth reading in full.

Stop Press: James Melville is unimpressed by the suggestion of an extension to lockdown. “Hospitalisations are still low. One death [on Monday]. We have a vaccine. After June 21st, we can’t do this anymore. We are done.”

It’s destroyed businesses, livelihoods, mental health, kids welfare, elderly interaction, non Covid treatments.

Hospitalisations are still low. 1 death today. We have a vaccine.

After 21st June, we can’t do this anymore. We are done.#EnoughIsEnough

Stop Press 2: Matt Hancock has told four million people in Greater Manchester and Lancashire to “minimise travel”, get tested and only meet outdoors in a further sign that the unlocking will be delayed. MailOnline has more.

Stop Press 3: Rishi Sunak is willing to accept a delay of up to four weeks to the final stage of England’s reopening roadmap, according to the Guardian.

Sunak, the Chancellor, has in the past been regarded as more keen to lift lockdown constraints than some cabinet colleagues. But a Whitehall source said he was not fixated on the June 21st date and was more concerned that when restrictions are lifted, the move can be permanent. “The Treasury’s main thing is that freedoms are irreversible and businesses have clarity,” the source said.

Worth reading in full.

I’d like to – but we have a 13,000 people festival all ready to go with suppliers, artists, stage companies, the lot – beginning of July that we will have to move again and no doubt thousands of tickets need to be refunded.

I’ve a simple solution – if you’re scared, over 50 or a fuckin’ bed wetter – get your jab and stay. the. fuck. home while the rest of us get on with life and stop ruining our businesses and running our lives (you cunts).

Sorry about that Dobba…I heartily agree. If YOU have a problem, get the xperimental therapy and shut it! I’m here in Italy in a town of 17,000 and you’d think that hospitals were overflowing with lepers just by looking at people’s masking and distancing behaviour.

Apologies – it’s not a catch all statement – maybe should be worded ‘over 50 and scared’ (I’m nearly 50 myself but even if I was 70 I’d still not give a damn about getting it or curtailing the lives of others). Good on you for not being in the above demographic sir. =)

I’m late 60’s and never done any of their crap, distancing, masks, vaccine. None of it,. Had rows in my doctor’s surgery, with the dentist, at the chiropodist yesterday and on a train station with a masked zealot. My answer to queries about my non compliance is always the same: I am not a slave and I am not a moron. Won every time. Doctor’s was the most satisfying.

Mind you, the fact that the bastard almost killed me with a bad bit of advice some 9 years ago and left me with some chronic medical conditions, might have something to do with it!!

Neither have we. The only thing we cannot do is travel to see our son in Hong Kong. We don’t go abroad as we need the money to fly to HK every two years. We cannot stand the stress of airports and the ridiculous safety measures.

So we have driven to see my brother in Devon twice over the last year. Have entertained close friends regularly and been entertained by them. We have lost a number of friends as they believe we will kill them ???? Our neighbours have carried on with having their full family with eight grandchildren into Sunday lunch each week and we have had our grandchildren to stay with us.

All done discreetly so our freedoms have changed and we have become ‘deceitful’ in that we keep ourselves within a tight circle. An apartheid is being created naturally as the sensible gather together and the easily led create their own groups. The Government say the majority of the country have been injected but they know that is playing with statistics. I suspect nearly a third of the country are not injected. Then there are the illegal immigrants who disappear when they arrive, the muslim fraternity who do not trust Big Pharma, those who live more isolated lived, etc etc.

My argument with the doctors got me removed from their practice. My argument was that it was insane to make people who couldn’t wear a mask wait outside in the rain when there was only a couple of people in a waiting room that used to hold 40. Thankfully I’ve found another surgery where they treat me like a human being.

We are in our 70s and have not had the injection either. We have been very healthy over the years. Good diet, good fresh air and exercise and never had a flu jab or indeed any jabs when visiting family in far east. Our doctor knows we believe in vaccines that help with prevention. He knows that flu jabs do not prevent flu but are a placebo to the elderly who worry.

we had a pneumonia booster around 8yrs ago as my research told me that most healthy old people die of pneumonia if they do catch a bad cold during the winter months. Stopping the cold turning to anything worse is a safer bet than a yearly flu jab. I think the British people have lived in a climate of health fear for many years. Planned for by the globalists who want full control of the world.

If all businesses turned round and said up yours, we are living our lives and those who are so frightened of their fellow humans can lock themselves away, then we would defeat these psychopaths.
The plan is to destroy SMEs. The biggest profits have been made by the Globalist Corporations over the last year. Many in Government have huge vested interests in the Corporations. Every single time businesses plough money into reopening the Government pulls the plug. When will these businesses realise they are complicit in their own downfall and stop complying.

Actually, I think that’s all it would take. Mass civil disobedience, if enough of us completely ignored this bullshit and enough small businesses opened up regardless, what could they do? They’d huff and puff and threaten like all bullies but I really do believe they’d fold. The power that they have over us is illusory, we allow them to push us around and tell us what to do. As soon as enough of us say f**k off we’re not going along with this crap anymore, their power is gone!

It is all about the vaccine/bio-identity passport. Who was on Marr the other night but the prince of darkness himself, Tony Bliar. Blair, whose foundation received some $22m from Gates foundation, is embedded in all of this, flattering, smarming and ultimately pulling the strings of the stooges in government.
On June 17, 2020 the Independent tweeted a photo of Blair saying, you will need ‘digital id’ to ‘prove disease status’. Yes, that’s right 2020….before the vaccines were up and running. This was also posted elsewhere at the same time:
Bill Gates says his foundation is funding the construction of factories for seven coronavirus vaccine candidates. Europe is embracing his agenda where people will not be able to even leave their house without a digital certificate from Gates to prove they were vaccinated. Former Prime Minister Tony Blair is on board with the Gates agenda. Europe is isolating itself from the world for if their own citizens will be restricted in their movement, what hope will there be for a tourist. In Britain, you can leave your house and take a drive, but you must return and are prohibited from staying anywhere else. All of this for a virus they make out to be the Black Death when the death rate is 0.0003% of the population. This is all about redesigning the world economy by deliberately crashing it to destroy all businesses they deem unwanted for the zero CO2 world.

Presumably the 3 and 4 stars in the military have the benefit of full intelligence briefings, and possess some wits. Presumably they can read, and are spending significant time doing their own research.

““Hospitalisations are still low. One death [on Monday].”

Yes, sure – this is confirmation of the idiocy. But remember the basic fact that this has never been the ‘unprecedented’ emergency that was manufactured. It has been a period of higher than average infection, but well within normal parameters, such as was seen in all but a few years in the post-war period.

And who but a congenital idiot would take advice from the constantly wrong Whitty and Vallance? Remember the 4000 deaths-a-day prediction in the autumn that could be bettered by a child with a crayon?

If they are saying two weeks to a month you can bet it’ll be six weeks. That’ll put re-opening in August, giving the perfect 3-4 week gap till sept when ‘cases’ will start to rise. This will give them the opportunity to blame the unvaccinated. Then public pressure will come to make it compulsory. This is the endgame. It is 100% deliberate

Whitty and Vallance are corrupt. There’s absolutely no doubt about that now. This whole lockdown business is just a threat to get what they want, which is mass vaccination. They, and their buddies worldwide, have suppressed effective treatments for covid since day one. Lockdown has helped them do this by effectively telling people to stay home whilst ill and stop them seeing doctors. It’s evil incarnate

I think you are right – we are now well past the point where simple incompetence and stupidity offered a sufficient explanation.

And Johnson can’t claim innocent stupidity, either – I think even he can find his arse using both hands.

As I’ve often said : we perhaps spend too much time on side-issues to the neglect of the key fact that there was never any exceptional event. That was the Big Lie – the foundational one. If the fear had been genuine, there would have been no need to inhibit the exploration of safe medications that have anti-viral properties. Nor would censorship be necessary, nor the constant pumping out of lies and distortions; the obvious dangers would be enough to guide people into the right responses, without fabrication. You would have seen the queues outside the undertakers, rather than imagined invisible variants. The barricading of GP surgeries was pure performance.

I’m seeing an increasing number of stickers from “The White Rose” movement around town. One read:-

” A polite reminder. It’s the government that has destroyed your businesses, stolen your freedom and ruined your children’s future – not the unvaccinated”.

Very good I thought.

“lockdown could be extended by 2-4 weeks” NO NO NO NO. Lockdown was NEVER going to end in June or any other month. We already know, because it has been stated openly and the contracts are signed to the tune of £100s of millions, that Track and Trace, mass testing, vaccine madness, covid advertising, covid marshals, internation travel restrictions, OFCOM censorship, SAGE etc etc etc are all going to carry on long after June, probably forever. STOP SAYING LOCKDOWN IS GOING TO END. We have to be mentally prepared for a very long war indeed – probably decades. We must be patient and think about long term strategies to help restore sanity.

How about following ‘Covid Marshalls’ around, and all those who work for Mitie, and letting everyone know who they are and what they get up to? And letting everyone know where they live. If people want to ‘Track and Trace’ you, do the same to them and see how they like it! Report them for every offence from not wearing their face mask, getting too close to other people, littering, speeding in their cars. Hound them relentlessly.

I visited an NHS ‘Covid test centre’. The guys at the entrance chatted with me for a while and started telling me the whole thing was a load of bollocks and that there was no Covid! They pointed to the pile of cones in a heap and said every plastic cone (for separating the car lanes, etc.) costs the NHS 57p/day to rent from a private company that supplies them.
Nice little earner, just that!
Not to mention the needless pollution of people continuously arriving in their cars – probably the very sort that bang on about Climate Change and the need to conserve fossil fuels, whilst the Chinese are slapping up new coal-fired power stations as fast as they can!
The plastic-tat test kits Made in China help to pay for all that extra pollution.

Vaccines don’t provide 100% protection. Millions remain unvaccinated.

Do they not see the idiocy within those two statements? Millions remains to be dosed with a snake oil that doesn’t work (by their own admission).

“Vaccines don’t provide 100% protection. ” It’s more subtle and more evil than that. Indeed they do not (and this isn’t unique to covid vaccines) provide 100% protection, but covid is such a deadly plague that even partial protection is better than none, but it must be combined with lockdowns, SD, mass testing, track & trace, masks, none of which work on their own but all contribute to mitigating this deadly plague forever. That’s the narrative, that’s the new normal, that is the madness we need to combat.

Call me cynical but I have a theory this is theatre, so many people have been complaining that Johnson is just a Puppet to the unelected members of SAGE,that in usual Johnson manipulation fashion this is all being played up, such that he can come out once again on national television and declare that he has listened to SAGE and has reflected upon the data, but it is time to end Lockdown for the sake of the people, democracy and the economy. He will ask for the British people to do the right thing, get their “jabs”, be sensible, and for the future term masks and social distancing will remain in place. (In other words no change from where we are now), However; and here will be the threat, should hospitalisations increase he will not hesitate to take firm and decisive action in introducing tiered restrictions.
So Johnson gets to look the good guy, the libertarian who is not the puppet of the Scientists. However in reality, nothing changes we will be as we are today, restricted, forced to cover up and keep clear of each other, and of course the threat that if we are naughty. We will be locked up again. Theatre, and manipulation by a morally bankrupt power crazed set of people.
I could of course be wrong, and he could say he needs to extend things for another month. But what changes anyway if he declares freedom but with restrictions masks etc on the whatever date it is in June

As I said call me cynical

Whatever sometimes is leaked from no10, the reality is that the UK is lockstep with Canada, Australia and New Zealand in going for zero covid . The traffic lights travel system has been deliberately used to frighten off any travel, the messages about doubts about vaccines dealing with variants keeps the fear factor high enough to satisfy the covid religious sect.
If ( and its a big ‘if’), the US and Europe start easier terms for travel, ie both sides drop the ‘special reasons’ for tested rather than vaccinated, the UK will find itself isolated, just like the old commonwealth countries.

I find it absolutely incredible that after 18 months of the covid hokey cokey the public are still falling for this guff. If people allow this extension to happen then frankly there is no hope for Britain – shame, because after the Brexit vote and breaking away from the soviet-esque EU I had hoped we could probably become a beacon of light for freedom everywhere – instead we have transformed into a fear-based totalitarian state run by crazed mussed hair lunatic and a group of behavioural scientists whose cruel methods of control make life under Stalinism look humane by comparison.

Wrong. The Times doesn’t have the story. The Times is parroting a government press release, and that’s what it is now. It’s not journalism any more. How would freedom stop people (foolishly) getting second jabs? The brain and the moral instincts of the reporter either do not exist or are not engaged.

Marching through London on a Saturday when all these bastards are not even there is commendable but risks being pointless. Why not tomorrow stop Johnson getting a free walk to PMQ’s? Peaceful always but peaceful and direct action is the only thing that is likely to cut through.

I have always felt that the “powers that be” love protests on Friday and weekends, as it plays their game. It looks to the world that protest is enabled, while they are never there to see it and unless something kicks off it’s easy to ignore. The Met are not daft. It’s how the game is controlled. A massive peaceful protest on a Wednesday afternoon has much much more cut through.

Or go to a constituency office of an Mp and protest on a Friday (if they even have constituency days now). Go to your local town hall with as many people as possible to protest when your council leaders are parroting about your safety. This is the only way this message will get through now that enough is enough. 2 more weeks will be 4 more weeks and it’s never ever ending.

If you are going on social media it’s the Special Advisers you need to engage with, it’s the unelected unaccountable people at PHE or other similar that need to be challenged when they pump out messages about how they are keeping you safe by ignoring doing their jobs.

I know in my heart of hearts that 21 June is gone. And I probably know in my heart that it was never going to be permitted to happen, so leaves me thinking that doing the same old same old in push back is all but pointless now.

I don’t want to praise XR but the reason they cut through was not because they played the normal game of engagement when protesting.

Sorry all if I write with a frustrated tone but this is a life not worth living if it only exists under the Jack boot of people like Hancock and Whitty and Vallance etc. ENOUGH

Luckily he has no power to do so and I hope the good people of Manchester and Lancashire tell him where to stick it. If we chase varients we will not be out of this. If we do not open on the 21st of June we will never reopen until the people simply start to disobey these cretins.

And choo choo. She’s kinda onboard again with the lie. She’s on the internet now looking for ivermectin. In the belief it will save her should she get the worst illness in the world aka the Chinese sniffles. Her brain can accept that the vaccines might be unwise, but ivermectin.. that is something she feels she should now stock up on.

What is it that allows people to see truth? And some not? The LSD I took as a teen? A brain more inclined to question and think? Why can I.. why can some of us see lies? But most of us cannot?

What I find the most disturbing is the REPEATED occurrence of the’ you will be freed – oh no you won’t’ scenario. And the more feeble the rationale – the more disturbing it becomes…. I’m sure I read somewhere that one of those really nasty Nazi war criminals described just this sort of erratic and irrational decision making as an excellent tool for the repression of populations.And yes the only response should be mass civil ignoring of all the silly rules. Alas compliance is now so heavily associated with ‘good caring social’ behaviour – that non-compliance is often seen as stupid and selfish.

Just ignore these people. Get on with our lives. The gaslighting and disdain of the public has gone on far too long.

Seems to me Matt Hancock is the Prime minister in all but name. Johnson is mentally as well as physically absent, the Chancellor is just a boy who holds the key to the piggy bank and just opens it whenever Hancock tells him.
Folks we are not getting out of this mess with this bunch, there will always be another variant, another rise in cases/infections/ the R rate. Always another reason to keep us under the thumb, and ehilst they do this, they don’t have to do anything else. They do not have to look at the standards of Education, they don’t have to look at reform of the NHS well I mean actually do anything, they talk lots don’t they but they never actually do anything. How many more ICU beds are there now than was since the start of the Pandemic? Whats happened to improve trade realtions with other countries? What have they done about Hong Kong, rebalancing the economy, the Police, violent crime? Nothing thats what. The Covid theatrics have given them the excuse to sit on their hands and just play with surveillance and Green politics. Non of which benefit the people.
What will so called freedom when it is bestowed on us by our masters look like? The same as now, masks, queuing, surveillance, terrorisation, travel restrictions, vaccine apartheid. So not freedom at all. And then of course we get to October and the end of the emergency laws, which of course will be extended because hey its flu season, people get sick so Lockdown again. My advice pack up and get out the country is finished, and the sad thing is the majority like it.

“Fairly grim briefing”. Is there any other kind? Can you honestly ever envisage a briefing whereby they all stand with broad smiles saying “Good news! It’s now under control and normal lives can be resumed immediately.” Its not gonna happen. Despite the fact that it has effectively disappeared, they have to keep coming up with new invented excuses to keep it going. Now it’s to give time for over 50s to get both jabs. And if they do? The next excuse will come out at another “fairly grim briefing” and on we go.

Why never any explanation or demand for information on what the government have done/are doing to ensure the NHS is not overwhelmed. It is after all, all about that isn’t it??!!!!
Can’t possibly be about resetting the entire world economy or setting up a technocractic ruling class over a communism……
Reminder:-
1. Asymptomatic spread is rare enough that you wouldn’t factor it in (same with masks and social distancing)
2. Tedros said test test test THE SYMPTOMATIC
3 fatality rate 0.15% for Covid, yellow fever 30-60%. Get things in perspective
4. Deaths are institutionally acquired mainly
5. The vessel Diamond Princess demonstrated the pre existing immunity, the age group most effected and the importance of the comorbidity.
This bizarre response to Covid cannot be justified unless you plan to ruin the economy and people’s lives.
Step up everyone, go to work. Business leaders, lead please.

Full Fact are shills for the BMGF & paid for by them. I took apart their criticisms of an essay by Dr Mike Yeadon, which were embarrassing. Full of straw men, false analogies, statements of things he hadn’t said and not one substantive point addressed. There are dozens of peer reviewed journal articles showing lockdown doesn’t slow epidemic spreading. Transmission without symptoms is extraordinarily rare, as even Fauci & WHO said early on. Given that symptomatic people are unwell, they’re not out & about in the community. So transmission there was very rare. No wonder general lockdown was without effect, anywhere. Transmission mostly occurred in institutions like hospitals & care homes become there are symptomatic people plus susceptible people.
They’ve lied about masks, which do nothing to respiratory virus transmission. Again, WHO says the same. So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon.
Variants is another strength for Yeadon, as he’s immunologically trained. He points out that the extent of mutation in every variant is minuscule, like 0,3%, so they are all at least 99.7% identical. Your immune system sees them all, easily, if you’re Immune to any of them. This is true theoretically and has also been demonstrated practically by study of both recovered cases & vaccinated. Yet our borders in U.K. are all but closed based on fear of variants & possible need for booster shots. So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon. It’s SAGE, government & the mass media.
They’ve ignored herd immunity, too. Yeadon points out a dozen peer reviewed journal articles showing that 30-50% of the population had immunity before the virus arrived, because SARS-CoV-2 is strongly related to four, endemic, common cold inducing coronaviruses. Google OC43, HKU-1 etc. Of course some people had been exposed to some of these related viruses & had good T-cell immunity. So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon.
On the untrustworthy PCR test, it’s flat wrong that they’ve never once accepted that there’s a false positive rate. EVERY medical diagnostic test has a FPR & a false negative rate. But govt uses all positives as “cases”, which as Dr John Lee says, are ALWAYS symptomatic. You can’t have a “case” but no symptoms, not until 2020. In PCR, as Cary Mullis, who won a Nobel prize for inventing PCR said, if you use too many cycles of amplification, you can find almost anything in anybody, but it doesn’t mean they’ve a clinical infection or are infectious. U.K. uses private Lighthouse Labs to criminally boost “cases”, which SAGE & govt use to scare & lock us down. Yeadon proved last summer that the claimed cases then were obtained at very high cycles and no account of false positives, such that fully 97% of claimed cases were false. He was backed up by several statistical experts later. So who’s lying here? It’s not Yeadon.
Yeadon filed a petition to the European Medicines Agency in December because his toxicology expertise indicated the likelihood of serious adverse effects. He wrote it with a serious German doctor, Wolfgang Wodarg. Neither are anti vax people & have zero history in that movement. They were right, and a group called Doctors4CovidEthics have written four Open Letters to EMA, the first just BEFORE the AZ vaccine started being paused due to blood clots. What dud that letter predict? BLOOD CLOTS due to expression of spike protein. EMA lied & stated that spike protein did not circulate. It’s just been found, in two separate studies, to be circulating. So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon.
Yeadon & Wodarg were also warning in their petition about the possibility of anaphylaxis after vaccination with the Pfizer product, because it contains PEG, and most people have some antibodies to PEG. Since the first day, thousands have had anaphylaxis needing injected adrenaline to rescue them. So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon.
Yeadon & Wodarg were also concerned about the unknown risk but severe impact if raising an immune response to spike protein caused cross reactivity to human syncytin-1, an essential protein for placenta. A paper appeared very recently, showing that there IS anti-syncytin-1 binding in those vaccinated with the Pfizer product, even though the authors of the paper lied & said there was no binding. There is, in Figure 2, right panel. Plain as anything. So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon.
I could go on, but his major criticism, that EVERYTHING we’ve been told is a lie, is supported by published articles in every case.
This is why they won’t debate with him. They know he’s spot on.
Why would he be putting everything at risk, if he’s not telling the truth?
He was retired, a happy family man, wealthy from selling Ziarco, a biotech he founded & led as CEO. He’s been fired by every consulting client company for his outspoken views. It makes no sense for him to be speaking out & being deliberately smeared, despite his quiet, private life as a professional scientist.

Many trust him for these reasons, he’s competent, experienced, looks & sounds honest, all his major points are one by one being proved correct & he has absolutely nothing to gain from speaking out.
Up to you though. If you prefer to believe the comfortable lies, nothing can be done for you,
He’s now predicting vaccine passports which are utterly illogical. If you’re vaccinated you are protected & don’t need to know what the immune status of anyone else is.
So why’s Govt & Blair wanting them? Tyrannical control via digital ID is the reason.
Ian Brown was right far earlier than Yeadon, even predicting “gonna chip us all”. Yesterday, Israel announced it was trialing Chipping children. Look it up.
So who’s lying? It’s not Yeadon (or Ian Brown).

Forgot to mention that there are multiple safe & effective treatments. See AAPS / Dr Peter McCullough.

If the majority of the population was able to think for itself it would ignore all of these ridiculous restrictions on our freedom from 21 June whatever our totalitarian regime decrees.

Unfortunately, most of them have been brainwashed into believing the government and scientific narrative about this virus.

The number of people I’ve known with this ‘pandemic’ disease I could count on the fingers of one hand. I’ve come across more who have been decidedly unwell after being injected with the untested gene therapy.
