Hilarious damage limitation from the DM. Good luck with that one, propagandist scumbags. The clip of him being cut off tells people more than a thousand lying newspaper articles could ever cover up.
People with the truth on their side don’t need to censor dissent.
Here’s the clip:
https://thecovidworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/John-Fleck.mp4
The fact they pulled it like this suggests that they are now using a delayed feed, presumably in case anyone collapses.
Thanks for that, the clip freezes at the end @12seconds, what grabs the attention is Trevor staring angrily to camera indicating the he knows he has just been censored.
TV and Radio have used delayed feed on ‘live’ broadcasts for many years in case a viewer or listener phones in with wildly off-message, obscene remarks or just goes off on a mental rant about the Prime Minister being an Alien.
I can’t remember an instance when it has been used to censor one of their own presenters.

I posted two replies to your above post Mark but they came up as unlinked ‘new comments’ in their own right 7 hours below.
One part of Spain is going to vaccinate school children between the ages of 5 and 11 over the Christmas school break. With provisos… as long as it is authorized at the state level, if there are enough supplies. The dose will be lower (10 ug vs 30 ug), 2 injections with 3 weeks apart. Personally I cant understand the maths behind that as Christmas break is not longer than 3 weeks. Thus it will not occur over the break.
News in Spanish.
https://www.niusdiario.es/espana/galicia/galicia-quiere-vacunar-ninos-navidad-hay-dosis_18_3240573977.html
Not very sound strategic planning,
” we will undertake this vitally important vaccination programme to keep our precious children safe from the terrible Pandemic:
unless we run out of stuff.”
There seems to be increasing desperation in the media as they try to cover up the inconvenient truths that keep slipping out over Covid treatment and vaccines as evidenced by several of the headlines above.
I remember my days on the beach building dams and running hither and thither trying to stem the increasing numbers of breaches as the tide came it; and that is how I see the MSM now.
Time for a new variant to be announced then …..…… oh, wait!!
Yep, right on cue another Scariant appears! They are struggling to maintain the narrative against its many contraditctions, so need something new to try to get people to shit themselves with terror and remain compliant.
I don’t think it’s going to work very well this time – more and more people can see through it all, and see that the measures are in no way proportional to the “threat” posed by a jumped-up cold virus.
That very thought went through my mind yesterday though of the MSM/HMG/NHS as a single blob.
Playing king of the castle as the tide rolled in inexorably on all sides of my massively constructed artifice before breaching the curtain walls in all directions (at which point I would leap off the ‘Keep’ hoping not to get wet feet).
Lovely analogy Norman.
This is what a battle looks like.
The people push back with mass protests.
So the totalitarian establishment push back raising the stakes: polls, mandatory vaccines, no travel to the EU policy, new African variant.
The battle is escalating.
No surprise that WuGuv is pushing the “correct” responses and results on us. MiniTruth’s job got much easier when it realised it could make us think that we already agreed with the pending diktats.
In local news, a recreational business which was forced into closure during one of the lockdowns has finally restarted and found a new venue. Sadly, they are mandating the Scotch Spy-n-Snitch system and demanding QR codes as a condition of entry, even though they are under no obligation to do so. Of course, they won’t be getting my business, but sadly they’re already pre-booked solid with “it’s just” zombies.
The lunacy of complying with the same regime that shut them down before, and will do so again because of (rather than despite) their complicity with the alarmism is simply breathtaking, but that’s where we’re at now. They’ve been beaten so hard that they can’t even think straight.
German euthanasia society guidelines must rank as so far ‘peak covid barminess’.
Somewhat more significantly, French Health Minister today utters statement that 10 times as many unvaxed as vaxed in hospital due to covid. Now France does not produce stats that can verify or otherwise this statement. However it does produce stats about the age profile of covid hospital patients. As of 25 November over 60% were over 70yrs. Let us assume that his statement is correct, its fair to assume the majority of the unvaxed are in that older group. Indeed 15% of the over 80s in France are still unvaxed.
So the rest of France, apparently willingly are once again to have their lives disrupted because old people are ill and dying of a respiratory disease in the winter months.
Of note is that only 1.1% of current emergency admissions to hospitals is as a result of covid. Yet 20% of beds are supposedly occupied by covid related patients. This clearly points to most covid related patients received a PCR test whilst in hospital with other ailments, in the older age groups probably severe and fatal.
It astounds me how stupid the government and the msm are. 6 countries from Africa direct flights to be cancelled. There are no direct flights from 5 of these countries, only SA.
Indeed!
I know this has been picked up already, but I can’t resist it:
Stay safe! If it saves one life!
Death is not a laughing matter, but I’m laughing.
Nighty-night, sanies!
Night, Annie. Have a restful one everyone. We need our energy, health and sanity for all tomorrow’s tomorrows.
‘Assisted death only for the vaccinated’ – one couldn’t expect anything less from a caring, conscientious,health-driven organisation…
RT have got it wrong. It is about the carers who attend the person wanting to die.That article links to this website. In German.

The video describes how you can easily disable a riot squad. I am NOT advocating for violence. If the police (who are equally as screwed a everyone else ultimately) would stop obeying illegal orders and stand down, then we would be out of this mess immediately.
Please share, it might make the police think twice about enacting illegal orders.
Saw this a few days back, and it always lifts the spirit to realize how easily & basic it is to overcome modern tech with a little ingenuity.
Of course, when digital currency/ID is introduced & the CCP social credit system is introduced, they’ll be able to track your purchase of balloons, black paint & oil!
“they’ll be able to track your purchase of balloons, black paint & oil!“
Well if they follow the US Democrat approach to law and order, just get a few mates together, stroll into B&Q and take what you want without paying. No transaction records.
I thought twice about clicking on the link for fear of what might I might see as I hate violence and will never partake in it voluntarily. However, this is brilliant and would have no qualms about doing this as I can see it would be extremely effective without causing serious injury. Absolutely brilliant!
Just more government overreach, it seems technocratic tyranny is unstoppable. The Tories legislating for “Harpers law” where the killing of police brings a mandatory life sentence is an egregious injustice, this liberal fashion of giving special interest groups special rights & privileges is where the inequity of health status passports comes from.
Equality means everyone has the same rights, a life sentence, if you take a life, no special considerations, no special laws for public servants or lobby groups, This liberalized Tory government is taking us in the wrong direction in every aspect of government policy & the difference between them and the Labour Party is cigarette paper thin.
We are headed for a communist style social credit system, that’s the real danger of 5g & digital ID.

I advise everyone to sign up to You Govs ‘live chat’.
It splits you into the correct stream and basically rewards you for giving the right answer with a little endorphin hit for being in the majority.
But you can then go back into the same poll and put the opposite answer and be put in the other lane where the totals now have flipped and you’re again encouraged to give the correct response.
Sounds like they’re using something a bit like the Delphi Technique to steer participants into the required outcome. Who’da thought!
Such collapses have been noted here at DS before, and other outlets where the emphasis has been on the personal tragedy and grieving family aspect. Top flight football is highly televised so a cynic might say ‘people drop down dead every day, it’s only news because it’s on the telly’.
As RickH has pointed out there is no (as yet) empirical evidence that more such collapses are happening as a result of the vaccine programs and it will do the cause of anti-vax sympathisers (compulsion being an extension of the issue) to start jumping up and down saying “look another one, we told you so” as do-gooder control freaks did when campaigning against smoking, drinking or not wearing a seat belt.they used to drool over depressing statistics in favour of their argument, some could barely contain themselves from cheering at such bad news.

Pt 2 response to Mark’s opening comment.
Like most people I have no interest in football, top flight or otherwise.
Most of us would have been blissfully unaware of the sad demise of John Flack if the studio producer had simply ignored Trevor Sinclares unwanted question and just had a ‘quiet word’ about bread side and butter later.
Instead of which he has created something of a typhoon in a teacup by clumsily censoring the question so bringing the vax controversy to millions of others who might have remained unaware of it.
What is known as the Barbara Streisand effect I believe.
The best that the Mails Least liked comments amounts to
“another thick footballer he needs to shut up”
which borders on being racist.
Just a word of clarification. I think empirical evidence is important for us, simply because the opposition has a much greater capacity to spread any story – so we have to be pretty rigorous about falling over our own shoe-laces.
There is clearly a question to be answered here, but we need a baseline for comparison. The same applies to Yellow Card etc. data – it is frustrating to see constant quotation of the (admittedly frightening) raw figures, but a lack of a baseline for comparison.
“Dr Renee Hoenderkamp says a YouGov poll that claims the majority would back a vaccine mandate gave her different statistics depending on her responses.
“The poll split people out depending on how they answered the first question. I’m very worried.””
I’m worried too but this is hardly a surprise to most of us here. This is a vicious war with the highest possible stakes. Our enemies, many and powerful, know they have been lying and will be ruthless if they think their lies are going to be uncovered.
I think this is it.
It actually makes sense.
The weighting should be done correctly and the results be reported correctly though.
It mainly shows how divided the country is.
I often defend opinion polls that are automatically attacked for not providing the required answer – it is not generally good business to get known for faking results in most instances.
However, YouGov is pretty definitely into the PR business big-time.
That said, I think that the last poll I saw, with a small majority backing Mengele, is not that inaccurate. My personal experience suggests that there are a sufficient number of vacuum-heads willing to ditch civilized ethical standards as they wet their knickers.
Yes, I imagine plenty genuinely would support such measures
YouTube have chosen to promote the Department of Health channel on my usual feed this morning (it goes away once I click on ‘favourites’).
So I took a little peek and attached is what I found.
Nothing surprising about the channel content but with a client base of 70 million (not to mention 1 million NHS staff who might be expected to take an interest) a few hundred views after 6 days is way beyond pathetic.
A channel hosted by an old man in his
basement posting videos of why bus routes in Croydon are so wrong might be disappointed with view counts this low.
For the couple of vids I clicked on comments are disabled.
If only there was some other unusual thing that has happened this year to explain it. Damn these infernal riddles.
I know – I thought cancer ha been cured because nobody was being treated.
This YouGov poll business is very nasty.
it’s not just nudging, it is malpractice. Doing a poll on the topic is worthy and could/should be done. But it’s a straight yes or no question. Do you support mandatory vaccination? Done and dusted. Or perhaps we should commission a poll that has two arms that has one ask “do you support mandatory vaccination even if it will result in the unlawful forced medication of people in a manner simpler to Joseph Mengala and other brutal forced experimentation associated with brutal murderous regimes. Wonder what the results would look like.
Does the government realise it has made us more untrusting of their actions? That the damage will take a generation to undo? Do they care?
So it looks like Nu variant is going to be awful. Ending flights to/from that part of Africa is smart (wait, weren’t we told doing so in Feb/March 2020 was useless?).
Several questions: does forcing boosters and juvenile jabs sensible given potential uselessness against Nu and the impact of multiple jabbing on immune response?
if you are booster jabbed now and in 3 months Nu is on the loose, will Europe still allow you in? Will Scotland still allow you to see a play?
If Nu is so destructive does it prove building vaccines around stopping the spike protein instead of creating an immune response was a really dumb idea?
Does this not make developing treatment plans far more important than vaccination, and thus far smarter for longterm immunity?
If Nu fails to take off will all the media outlets now treating it as if we are in February 2020 have to apologise?
Do I feel like I am seeing a beat-for-beat remake of a bad movie starring James Cordon while on a date with a girl I despise?
All of this needs to stop, including talk of variants. We know the vulnerable demographics. They can be offered gene therapy drugs if they want it and can be shielded. Everyone else should carry on as usual and rebuild the massive damage done to our societies, mostly by bedwetting lefties running the healthcare sector.
As some have argued from Day 1.
“it looks like Nu variant is going to be awful”
You mean like all the other variants? I mean – like that Delta wave in India that refused to push mortality rates above the average?
The point I am keen to labour is how we must all work together to ensure those responsible for this, and we can be very specific here, are not allowed to walk any of this back, or get out of it. We know what has been done, and who has done it. These people must be punished for what they have done.
None of this was necessary, and those who caused it must and will face justice.
There is no excuse for anyone to be surprised that the “nu variant” will likely escape the vaccine. Geert Vanden Bossche made presentations on this, and wrote papers on it, months and months and months ago. I’m only surprised it has taken this long – and they haven’t even finished their Delta gene therapy injection yet!
This ends only one way. Every country must stop mass inoculations and let the virus do its business. Then we have herd immunity. We could have got this over six months ago.
Ends?
It’s a never ending gift to big pharma, variant – booster, variant – booster, variant – booster, variant – booster into infinity.
I’m almost envious of the brilliance of this scam. I never used to rate Bill Gates but if nothing else he’s shown he’s as good as any billionaire psychopath, this must have been in planning for years, all those brown envelopes etc.
This variant seems to be one totally unsuited to the spike protein vaxx approach, as predicted by vdB&co.
If they are really surprised by it (not speaking for their intelligence, of course) and really concerned about public health, they’d recognize and admit their totally wrong strategy and focussed solely on treatments now.
If they don’t do it and double down on sp vaccines, let alone the current useless ones, the cockup narrative is dead.
Note the disconnect of actual data (from sources like Euromomo) and the predictable hyping-up of panic in order to sell the snake-oil.
This South African variant is spreading very very quickly.
Wonder what regime will be enforced after this. I am thinking total vaccination for everyone.
Read in the news that one case is in Belgium. From an unvaxxed man (naturally) who had been on vacation in Egypt.
Only Isral has stoped travllers from all African countries except some in the North of the coninent… Is not Egypt in the north of Africa?
Are we allowed to call it the South African variant as I thought the relationship between variants and countries was decreed to be illegal
Here we go Christmas is coming the public have got over Covid their being irresponsible and not wearing their masks or getting their jabs or staying home when they sneeze!! Quick find another variant so they can be forced to obay or Christmas is cancelled!! Well SAGE not me!! Borebals to the lot of you!!!
