And Finally…

by Toby Young
1 November 2021 11:28 PM

In this week’s episode of London Calling, James Delingpole and I devote the best part of an hour to taking the Mickey out of COP26. I challenge James to identify the biggest climate hypocrite of the week: Joe Biden, who brought five passenger jets with him; Dana Strong, the CEO of Sky, which is one of the main sponsors of the conference and who spent the first six months of her job ‘commuting’ to London from her home in Philadelphia on a private jet; or the organisers of COP26, who’ve had to rig up oil-fuelled generators to power the fleet of 260 electric Range Rover they’ve laid on to transport the VIPs from the nearest private jet landing strip to the conference centre. We also just manage to squeeze in a discussion of King Richard, Dune and season three of Succession.

Short version: We must reintroduce infection control measures because they didn’t work!

To save someone the time of reading through all of the drivel until this finally appears at the end of it.

Doubtless part of the solution will be more “safe and effective” “vaccines”.

Maybe. The article is a long tirade about the terrible dangers of endemic viruses and ends with an ominous Both the populations as a whole and scientists have learned a lot about viruses and how to prevent infections in the last couple of years. Some of these lessons must be carried forward (paraphrase).

They’ve learned a lot about how to prevent infections as demonstrated by the fact that children are getting several at the time now.

So the lesson on how to prevent them is to do the exact opposite of what we’ve done these last 2 years.

But that won’t be the lesson I fear.

Oh dear, they won’t like people turning up infected by loads of things! Who’s betting that someone will claim that they have put a stop to ‘flu? Perhaps we are looking at a modern implementation of the old saying” “The cure is worse than the disease”.

One could almost believe that someone who argues that Due to infection control measures, we, and especially our children, are much more vulnerable to infections than we ever were before. Therefore, we need more infection control measures! was driven by a not-so-secret depopulation agenda.

Of course lockdowns had no impact on “lack of exposure”?
