News Round-Up

by Luke Perry
26 November 2021 11:37 PM

  • “We need to take back our lives from the permanent Covid panic-mongers” – Even before the new variant emerged, the lazy and risk-averse were threatening everyone with procedures and precautions, argues Juliet Samuel in the Telegraph.
  • “Vaccine ‘dramatically’ increases heart risk, says new study” – “Markers for inflammation, cell death, and T-cell movement (indicating an immune response to coronary artery injury) all increased,” writes Neville Hodgkinson in TCW.
  • “The Nu variant: what we know so far” – “Will the Nu variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus which causes Covid, be the black swan that pulls the world back – just when the pandemic seemed to be fading?” asks Ross Clark in the Spectator.
  • “Thousands of unnecessary lung cancer deaths caused by Covid lockdown: U.K. report” – “Thousands of lung cancer patients may have died unnecessarily as a result of lockdown measures imposed during the Covid pandemic, a new report has said,” reports the Epoch Times.
  • “Ex-England star blasted for wondering if spate of football player collapses is linked to Covid vaccine” – “Former England and Manchester City player Trevor Sinclair has been criticized online after asking if the recent collapse of a professional footballer may have been linked to the Covid vaccine,” reports RT.
  • “How to escape Google” – “Google is indeed ‘hiding information’ from its users. This has actually been known for many years, but it has become especially obvious and serious during the Covid pandemic,” says Swiss Policy Research in its study of the internet giant’s political partisanship.
  • “FTSE suffers biggest fall in a year in response to new Covid variant” – “The U.K.’s leading share index endured its sharpest drop since the end of January after global equity markets retreated following the emergence of a new fast-spreading Covid variant,” reports the Times.
  • “Super-Covid variant spooks markets – but ministers must hold their nerve” – The U.K. is in a stronger position than Europe, but our recovery will not withstand another lockdown, writes Ben Marlow in the Telegraph.
  • “Fear and fascism growing on the Vine” – “the Press press on with this Covid hysteria. The media does this not because we should be fearful of Covid, but because fear sells,” writes James Bembridge, who uses the example of the Jeremy Vine Show in TCW.
  • “Covid in Europe: Belgium closes nightclubs and issues 11pm bar curfew” – “Belgium will close nightclubs and require people to work from home as part of an effort to curb Covid cases. The Government issued new measures on Friday,” reports Euronews. 
  • “Netherlands tightens Covid health measures to stem record surge in cases” – “The Dutch Government on Friday ordered further restrictions including a night-time closure of bars, restaurants and most stores to stem a record-breaking wave of Covid cases,” reports France 24.
  • “Biden’s Covid death milestone” – “Covid deaths this year have now surpassed the toll in 2020 with 350,000 since Inauguration Day. It would seem that Biden has done no better than Donald Trump in defeating Covid despite the benefit of vaccines,” writes the WSJ Editorial Board.
  • “How long before a vaccine protects us against the Omicron Covid variant?” – if we need to tailor a jab to a new variant, it will take 100 days, writes Tom Whipple in the Times.
  • “How we uncancelled Jordan Peterson” – When Cambridge University withdrew his invitation to visit, we knew we had to fight back, writes Arif Ahmed in Spiked.
  • “Santa Claus is gay? Of course he is” – “A TV ad for the Norwegian postal service that shows Father Christmas enjoying a festive kiss with a man has gone viral. Santa’s coming out makes perfect sense, given his uncanny ability to take on a wide range of identities,” writes Charlie Stone in RT.
  • “Michael Vaughan does not deserve to see his reputation trashed by the BBC and BT without due process” – To blacklist one of the best England captains we have produced on the basis of historic and still unproven allegations feels wrong, writes Monty Panesar in the Telegraph.
  • “Virginia parents raise concerns over ‘extremely invasive’ survey that promotes ‘early sexualization’” – “Virginia parents are raising concerns over what they feel is an ‘extremely invasive’ survey being given to school students that promotes ‘early sexualization’,” reports the Epoch Times.
  • “The shameful silence on the Waukesha massacre” – Identity politics has corroded the humanity of the elites, writes Brendan O’Neill in Spiked.
  • “Sid Waddell and the end of an era” – “As these greats have slowly disappeared, the BBC has made a conscientious effort to bring more ‘diversity’ into the team,” writes Collingwood, who briefly comments on the recent ‘progressive’ changes made to the sport pundit world in Bullseyes and Booze.
  • “Toby Young’s free speech campaign takes on university for silencing gender-critical scholars” – Free Speech Union prepares legal challenge against University of Essex after two academics were no-platformed, reports the Telegraph.
  • “A new propaganda campaign” – Michael P. Senger has tweeted that: “I am not afraid of the new variant. But in truth, few people really are. What is scary about the new variant is that it marks a new propaganda campaign for a blitz of globally-coordinated totalitarian measures.”

I am not afraid of the new variant. But in truth, few people really are. What is scary about the new variant is that it marks a new propaganda campaign for a blitz of globally-coordinated totalitarian measures to which most sheep will consent, whether they believe the lie or not.
