The tactics being employed to persuade young Brits to get vaccinated against Covid are being ramped up, much to the joy of – and, at times, thanks to the work of – the Government. The latest effort comes from the University of Sussex, which is offering fully vaccinated students the chance to win a £5,000 prize. BBC News has the story.
All students are being entered into the draw, with 10 winners able to claim a £5,000 prize each, if they can prove they are double-jabbed or exempt. …
Professor Adam Tickell, the Vice-Chancellor at Sussex, said the prize raffle was worth it if the numbers being vaccinated could be boosted even slightly.
“We know take-up among young people is patchy,” he said. “We know they’re not against the vaccine, they’re just not getting round to it.”
He added the financial cost to the university of the scheme was small compared to the human and social cost of potential disruption to students.
“We know transmission rates are lower with vaccination, and the risk of serious illness for our staff and students is much lower in people who’ve been vaccinated.”
Vaccination remains voluntary for students, and there has been growing concern about the relatively low take-up by young adults. …
The university says its scheme is designed to provide an incentive for students to have both doses. …
Professor Tickell got the idea after hearing on a BBC programme that universities in the U.S. were offering incentives for vaccination. …
Universities Minister Michelle Donelan said: “Vaccines are the surest way to put Covid behind us and for students to reclaim the freedoms that enrich university life.
“The department is encouraging universities to look at creative ways to boost uptake, and to discuss the possibility of pop-up centres with local health partners – making it quick and easy for students to grab a jab.”

Fucking outrageous.
How do the odds of winning compare with the odds of a blood clot?
Total number of students = 16,820 (24% overseas students)
Total number of teaching staff = 2,200
(Ref)
Roughly 19,000 (0.005%) will have the chance to win the £5,000 cash prize.
Chances of dying of Covid-19 for those aged 0-20 = 0.00005%
(Ref)
And I don’t think anyone yet has sufficient data to estimate the blood clot risk for these youngsters, nor the heart problems etc.
Or potential human infertility.
Its better than that – “All students are being entered into the draw, with 10 winners able to claim a £5,000 prize each”
So the odds are about 0.06% of getting a prize.
We need proper protests and Nuremburg trials.

“The biggest propaganda operation in history”
Contrary to what the title suggests this is not about the virus, but about the propaganda and political exploitation of it. The guy interviewed is a serious expert on propaganda:
“Dr Piers Robinson is an expert on communication, media and world politics, focusing on conflict and war and especially the role of propaganda
He is presently Co-Director of the Organisation for Propaganda Studies, Convenor of the Working Group on Syria, Propaganda and Media and Associated Researcher with the Working Group on Propaganda and the 9/11 ‘War on Terror’
From 2016 – 2019, he was Professor and Chair in Politics, Society and Political Journalism at the University of Sheffield.
Dr Robinson has served on the boards of several academic journals. He has lectured at the NATO Defense College in Rome and briefed senior UK military commanders and diplomats.”
Dr Robinson:
“The biggest propaganda operation in history”
“in all of my life and all of my experience I’ve never experienced anything as worrying and as extreme as what we are seeing at the moment”
“all the alarm bells are ringing, with anyone who’s got a knowledge of history and a knowledge of things like propaganda…and we are in, I think, extremely dangerous times”
Time to choose a side.
Classic magician’s trick, ‘make them watch this hand’ … whilst the masses are in a trance like focus on Covid, the real sleight of hand is taking place … the massive changes he talks about. Thanks for posting this, it’s a good watch.
We have – and let’s hope the pressures to conform remain resistible. It is impossible to say how far the dictators will go – loss of jobs, ban on access to grocery stores, confiscation of savings, of houses ….. ????
hung, drawn and quartered?
I chose my side a year ago after I had a blood test showing a full antibody count for covid. Two days later the govt. banned these tests, going so far as to threaten the pharmacy with closure if they didn’t stop offering them. So why didn’t they want us to know if we’ve had covid? The reason given was that they were afraid we’d stop wearing masks if we knew. Possibly the lamest, flimsiest excuse I’ve ever heard. I think the truth is they were scared we’d refuse the vaccine, which was about to be rolled out.
Since then, nobody in govt., or those in cahoots with them, ever mentions T-cell immunity, which is what covid-recoverers have – memory cells that live quietly in the bone marrow and activate new antibodies immediately the virus revisits. Vaccines provide antibodies but NOT the vital memory cells, which is why constant vaccine boosters will be needed.
Have never trusted a word from their lying mouths ever since.
They all have blood on their hands.
And none of them care.
I really hope that the winner is exempt as they have had covid and survived!
It’s like the Hunger Games

Good video Mark – thanks for posting.
Unusually, it’s not hosted on any of the usual channels (Rumble, Odysee, Bitchute etc.) and there’s no description, comments section or reference saying who’s produced it. Absolutely nothing at all that I can see. The audio ends by saying “.. . if you want to learn more – go to our resource page . . .” but there aren’t any links? I’m hopeless at techie IT stuff, so perhaps I’m missing the bleedin’ obvious!? Help, please!
I’m not sure myself, timsk. My sister forwarded it to me. I’ll ask her but I suspect she’s just passing it on as well.
It might be from these folk, where the video (or poss an earlier version) seems to have been posted a couple of months ago. Certainly they are sufficiently well organised and funded to have produced it (it’s Robert Kennedy’s organisation).

The Astonishing Hubris of a Global Experimental VaccineIt is an objective, indisputable fact: never in the history of the world has there been a global push to administer an experimental medicine to all of humanity, billions of us, at the same time.

I am appauled that a place of learning can create a lottery asking young people to take a vaccine in order to win the jackpot…….SO ANGRY that an educational establishment that encourages free thinking can legally do this
Clearly it does not encourage free thinking. Or even thinking.

Inducement via lottery is an absolute ethical minefield.
It is seen as the worst combination of acting as a large monetary inducement (ethically very bad) without actually costing that much (economically attractive for those offering the inducement).
In addition, it attracts those with a gambling mindset, and might be seen as a driver for making this worse.
But I suppose when it comes to the covid vaccines ethics went out the window months ago — after all, what’s the problem with offering entry into a lottery when the entire point of vaccinating the young has been shown to be flawed (to gain herd immunity, where the vaccine only offers a few months worth of protection against transmission).
We need proper protests and Nuremburg trials.

Pathologist Dr Ryan Cole Delivers Concerning Message About COVID Vaccine and Long Term Impacts
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2021/08/07/pathologist-dr-ryan-cole-delivers-concerning-message-about-covid-vaccine-and-long-term-impacts/#more-215046
This is a brilliant link and presentation. The intro is a must read itself, on why the vaccinated can’t be reasoned with and why we shouldn’t engage in a discussion about the vaccines with them anymore and why the FDA has no choice but to approve them, and the presentation is very much worth listening to. It is on the travelling spike protein and it’s damage, on the unscientific lack of autopsies and the concerning change of our immune system post vaccination.
I’ve just finished Suite Francaise by Irene Nemirovsky. A French Jew, she spent her final months before deportment to her death writing about the experience of Germany occupying France, and the willing surrender of the elite.
In her notes she writes: “They’re trying to make us believe that we live in the age of “community”, when the individual must perish so that society may live, and we don’t want to see that it is society that is dying so that the tyrants can live.”
Brilliant.
As Julius Ruechel has also noted: all prior wars, atrocities, genocides, discrimination etc. have been committed in the name of a communitarian goal, under utilitarian principles primacy. Hitler, Stalin&co genuinely believed that they were acting for the common good of their people and those people were made to believe the same too.
Which is why the concept of inalienable individual rights was introduced in the first place.
Which is why abolishing them and the concept of their primacy now in favour of utilitarian goals and their primacy again is so dangerous and certainly not limited or temporary.
We can already draw the parallels to prior persecutions and discriminations at the example of the witch hunts for dissenters and the unvaxxed, of course.
That the mindset and moral compass of the public have changed and broken so quickly, despite having been educated (a bit) about these past atrocities and their reasons, is really the most devastating development of all this.
And their now cult like behavior and mindset, heinously created by governments, media and SPIB&co helpers, has ensured that they cannot be reasoned with at all, with the most gullible, those that can be persuaded to get a jab in return for just a hotdog or lottery chance, likely to commit the worst and most atrocities henceforth, as this author observes.

I’m a 60 something male with a severe heart condition. The Oxford Uni Covid risk calculator tells me I’ve a 1:5665 chance of dying from Covid.
I’ve trained over 20,000 people in risk management over the last 20 years or so. A golden rule is that the cost of mitigation must never outweigh the cost of the risk occurring.
Looking at resulting side effects of the experimental gene therapies, the deaths, heart complications, numbness, internal bleeding etc (all, I’m certain, very much under-reported), I’m extremely content not to be jabbed.
I’d advise any right-thinking youngster to weigh up the odds for themselves.
“I’ve a 1:5665 chance of dying from Covid“
Presumably that’s assuming you catch it (and haven’t already had it without knowing, for instance).
As a fifty something male with a lung cancer in remission and part of a lung missing, I don’t know where my risk level is (probably lower than yours, given the heavy correlation with age).
But regardless, I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty comfortable with risks at this kind of level, even if you throw in the possibilty of severe illness.
My advice to a youngster would be don’t even bother trying to weigh up the odds, just don’t take it. Weighing up the odds doesn’t seem necessary since one side (the risk of serious consequences from covid) is so vanishingly small anyway, and the main component of concern about the vaccine effects has to be the longer term unknown unknowns anyway.
Just say no.
[Though having said that, in reality I’d say do the calculation anyway. The result is a forgone conclusion in this case, but it’s a good exercise in researching and thinking for yourself anyway.]
https://sebastianrushworth.com/2021/06/23/how-well-do-doctors-understand-probability/
Doctors don’t do or are extremely bad at calculating probabilities.
Which is understandable, as they are primarily subject to and driven by a God complex and its resulting hubris.
I always thought that the British public could do it best due to its betting affinity, but Brexit and the high vaccine uptake certainly proved me wrong, although that correlation might also suggest the causation that any appeal to nationalist and patriotic instincts kills the facility due do probability assessments and all other rationality in such a people.
Very sick minds at work!
Vaccines. Enable. Us. To. Put. Covid.behind. Us.
As in Israel. As in Iceland. As in the Seychelles. As in Gibraltar.
What sort of imbecile is this?
The manufacturers themselves make no such claim.
It didn’t work, so we have to try harder, be harsher, just prescribe more of the same useless medicine more often.
It’s obviously now driven either by total insanity or purely criminal motives.
shagging around carries risk of serious illness too, maybe universities can start incentives for chastity…
“Have you got herpes?”
And is Vice Chancellor Adams also accepting liability if any of these students dies or is seriously disabled as a result of having one of these unlicensed experimental jabs?
Coercion – is against the Nuremberg Code.
British Medical Journal…….”a comprehensive safety review is imperative to reassure that the risks associated with genetic vaccines in the young population do not outweigh the desired benefits.
Vaccines are one of the great discoveries in medicine that has improved life expectancy dramatically. Nevertheless, genetic vaccines are new, and their long-term safety evaluation is important in identifying the potentially contraindicated populations to ensure public safety.”….https://www.bmj.com/content/373/bmj.n1244/rr-10
Coercion = illegal
Dr Peter McCullough does not mince his words. People under 50 should not take these gene therapy injections. Many other medics, scientists and basically anyone with a brain, agree.
So students at this establishment will be paying £9,000 a year to subsidise these inducements that are borderline criminal. Disgusting!!
