  • “Do Not Give Up Your Rights” – The Brownstone Institute has published the transcript of a speech by Dr. Julie Ponesse.
  • “It’s not just the liberties of NHS workers that deserve protection – but the public’s too” – The freedoms of health staff are to be protected by delaying mandatory jabs. Do they care about our freedoms, asks Kate Andrews in the Telegraph.

  • “Allegations of Bill Gates and the WHO Influencing Vaccine-Only Protocols” – Many governments have drawn criticism for their delay in mobilising resources or instituting preventive policies that would have minimised Covid spread, reports TrialSite.
  • “South Dakota Governor sues Biden over vax mandate… after getting sued by Republicans” – South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem says her state has joined a lawsuit against the Biden administration over its latest “unconstitutional” vaccine mandate. However, Noem herself is facing a mandates-related lawsuit.
  • “The Online Safety Bill – and the terrifying consequences of making ‘likely psychological harm’ a criminal offence” – “The Conservative Party’s lack of any discernible guiding philosophy is why Government ministers are now effectively ciphers,” writes Marc Glendening in Conservative Home.
  • “We can’t afford to wait for Macron to solve the migrant crisis for us” – Priti Patel says that the vast majority of arrivals are economic migrants and not refugees. So why does she allow this to continue, asks Nigel Farage in the Telegraph.
  • “Net zero is a disastrous solution to a nonexistent problem” – “Human folly is all too common. But in a long life I have never come across anything remotely as bad as the current climate scare,” writes Nigel Lawson in the Spectator.
  • “COP26’s a vanity project for elite and eco-alarmist kids who’ve never paid tax” – “It is said that noxious gases are destroying are planet. If so, then after days of COP26 emissions in Glasgow, our planet might well be doomed,” writes Douglas Murray in the Sun.

  • “The surest route to madness: driving on the M1” – “But that just seems to be the way of things: paying more and more in return for services which get worse and worse,” writes Frederick Edward in Bournbrook Magazine.
  • “Biden issued brutal warning as Democrats’ obsession with Trump backfires spectacularly” – A damning electoral loss has sent the U.S. Democratic Party a clear message: relying on anti-Trump rhetoric is not enough to win votes, reports the Express.

  • “Only our enemies profit from the nihilistic campaign to make us feel ashamed of our past” – Now we are meant to feel guilty about the Industrial Revolution. Our common story is discredited again, writes Robert Tombs in the Telegraph.
  • “Zarah Sultana’s face mask hypocrisy” – Julia Hartley-Brewer asks Labour MP Zarah Sultana, who criticises Tory MPs for not wearing face masks in the Commons: “Why are you not wearing one now?”
