News Round-Up

by Michael Curzon
20 October 2021 11:53 PM

  • “We risk being frightened back into lockdown” – England has quietly turned into one of the more liberal Covid countries. It would be a crying shame to lose it, writes Madeline Grant in the Telegraph.
  • “Get booster jab now to avoid return of Christmas restrictions, warns Sajid Javid” – Household mixing could be banned as the Health Secretary urges public to “play their part” if they want to spend festive season with loved ones
  • “Fact-check: Is the NHS at risk of being overwhelmed by Covid?” – “Rather than being inundated, there are more empty beds in the NHS then there are patients with Covid,” writes ‘Steerpike’ in the Spectator.
  • “Shouldn’t the NHS be protecting us?” – We cannot keep submitting to new restrictions to save our failing healthcare system, writes Rob Lyons in Spiked.
  • “How concerning is the new Covid variant?” – Delta’s successor is here – but is it more dangerous, asks Ross Clark in the Spectator.
  • “Lockdown zealots want a return of Covid curbs to ‘protect the NHS’… from the consequences of the previous lockdowns” – Calls for the Government to implement its ‘Plan B’ strategy are being made on grounds of preventing the NHS being swamped by a backlog caused by previous lockdowns. But this would create a never-ending cycle of restrictions, writes Neil Clark in RT.
  • “NHS whilstle blower” – Laurence Fox speaks to an NHS whistle-blower, who despite working throughout the lockdown, caring in the community, now faces the sack simply because she doesn’t wish to get the vaccine.
  • “Pandemic-hit NHS wastes over £560 million yearly on ‘unnecessary’ and addictive pills with severe withdrawal symptoms – study” – Despite the Covid pandemic, the NHS is reportedly wasting as much as £568 million yearly on habit-forming drugs like painkillers and sleeping pills that the majority of patients do not need, leading to dangerous addictions, reports RT.
  • “After COP26 the Government won’t hesitate to lock the country down again” – With Covid cases rising and vaccinations waning, panicked ministers will look to extreme counter-measures once again, writes Ross Clark in the Telegraph.
  • “The West’s Energy Masochism” – Putin takes advantage of democratic Europe’s self-defeating climate policies, writes the Wall Street Journal’s editorial board.
  • “We need a referendum on net zero to save Britain from the green blob” – As with membership of the E.U., the political elite is imposing a revolution on the public without consent, writes Allister Heath in the Telegraph.
  • “How environmentalism turned politics on its head” – Boris Johnson is proudly promising to impoverish us all – and he wants the world to follow him, writes Fraser Myers in Spiked.
  • “Whitehall considers meat tax to slash carbon emissions” – Consumers should be hit with higher prices on meat to help the environment, says research paper drawn up for the Government.
  • “The Triumph and Terror of Wang Huning” – One man’s thought has become pivotal in China’s new political and cultural crackdowns. That man is not Xi Jinping, writes N. S. Lyons in Palladium.
  • “Social media executives will be prosecuted for hatred and abuse online, says Boris Johnson” – Boris Johnson has pledged to introduce criminal sanctions for social media bosses who allow “foul content” to be posted on their platforms, reports the Times.
  • “Why America’s social justice narratives always crash and burn” – “Has any movement ever crashed and burned more quickly than the social justice revolution,” asks Andrew Sullivan in the Spectator.
  • “Selfish university lecturers are putting their own needs first with their threat to strike” – One of our most urgent priorities as a nation is to get education back to normal before more children are damaged, writes Allison Pearson in the Telegraph.
  • “Toby explains why people are resisting booster jabs” – Toby tells talkRADIO “vaccine scepticism is increasing” and asks: “Are we going to be trapped in this vaccine hamster wheel in perpetuity?”

"Vaccine scepticism is increasing. Are we going to be trapped in this vaccine hamster wheel in perpetuity?"

“Eris” – or to give it its full title ‘Here we go again.’

Most people I know and speak to were fully bought into the covid narrative first time around. They never mention it now. Many other evils are doubtless being planned, but I think the covid horse is well and truly dead.

I hope they start trying to push this, and even hope they start trying to push masking and lockdown, because now more people understand what we on this website have understood all along and the push back will be full and strong and will prevail. It would be better to confront these people head-on now over another nothing-burger covid variant than wait for Pharma and the not so secret biolabs to cook-up a not-so-accidental release of something properly nasty.

Not forgetting that Jab-Junkies are more likely to get the latest ‘variant’ (yawn) and get it ‘good and hard’ than we pure bloods.

And the more Jib-jabs these Junkies have had, the gooder and harder they get it. So time to stand back and let Darwin prevail, as they rush to shoot up some more.

YouTube and complete censorship. As Kit Knightly puts it:

“Reality is subject to the approval of the state, and the state is always right.”
