Finally! YouGov Poll Finds Public Opposed to Lockdown

1 min read

A YouGov poll for the Times, has revealed that a majority of the British population are opposed to further Covid restrictions. Guido Fawkes has more.

Guido can’t remember the last time a poll on Covid saw the public really reject any proposed restrictions on civil liberties, however a new one in today’s Times demonstrates just that. According to a poll of 1,714 people between the 14th and 15th, the arrival in Omicron saw very little movement on the public’s opposition to:

– Shutting pubs and restaurants: 60% opposition
– Shutting non-essential shops: 65% opposition
– Banning indoor meetings with people from other households: 62% opposition
– Banning indoor meeting people from other households on Christmas Day: 68%
– Pubs, bars and restaurants not being allowed to open on New Year’s Eve: 53%

According to YouGov’s polling, the government has already maxed out its support for anti-Covid measures – facemasks and passports – while leaving very little room for further restrictions if, as predicted, a wave of Omicron sweeps the land. For potentially the first time during this pandemic, civil liberties defenders have the overwhelming backing of the public…

Congratulations and well done to the thousands who turned out in London and other cities to protest at the tyranny of the scientists and the restrictions on civil liberties. Before locking us down we need to be told who has died of omicron, how many serious cases are there, who they are, are they jabbed or not, what ages and state of health they are – a whole load of data before we are imprisoned again for no reason except for the government wanting to keep its knee on our necks. Wish there was some way I could protest here in the wilds of the South Hams of Devon.

I suppose I should be happy that the sheep have started to realise the extent to which their lives have been ruined by unelected so called experts like Ferguson, Vallance and Whitty and are starting 9far too late) to kick up, but until our dictator Johson sees the folly of his past actions we will still be liable to curbs on the liberties that we have taken for granted.

Covid Crusher: Mix one heaped teaspoon of Iodine table salt in a mug of warm clean water, cup a hand and sniff or snort the entire mugful up your nose, spitting out anything which comes down into your mouth. If sore, then you have a virus, so continue morning noon and night, or more often if you want, until the soreness goes away (2-3 minutes) then blow out your nose and flush away, washing your hands afterwards, until when you do my simple cure, you don’t have any soreness at all, when you flush – job done. Also swallow a couple of mouthfuls of salt water and if you have burning in your lungs, salt killing virus and pneumonia there too.

My simple salt water cure, kills all Coronaviruses and viruses, as soon as you think you have an infection, or while self isolating, before the viruses mutate into the disease in your head and body, for which there is no cure.

I have been doing this simple cure for over 27 years and I am and others never sick from viruses and there is no reason why any of you should be either – when your only alternative are… Read more »

mRNA vaccinated people worldwide are products, patented goods, according to US law, “no longer human”.Esme Coetzee 10 Dec 2021 at 4:55 PM #63403 GMO HUMANS https://ambassadorlove.wordpress.com/2021/12/08/covid-19-patent-horrors/ All the Covid-19 “vaccine” patents mention gene deletion. All the patents except one, mention “complimentary DNA” (cDNA). cDNA is a chimeric mRNA cocktail that’s being coded into Human cells using artificial genetic sequences in cross-species genomics. According to the US Supreme Court ruling in 2013, altering Humans with cDNA makes them patent eligible. The court documents show that cDNA is made using modified bacterium and Supreme Court judges ruled it patent eligible. This means that a plant, animal or Human, could be patented and owned if first genetically modified with cDNA. Mark Steele summarized it perfectly by stating: In the US, the Supreme Court has ruled that vaccinated people worldwide are products, patented goods, according to US law, no longer human. Through a modified DNA or RNA vaccination, “the mRNA vaccination”, the person ceases to be human and becomes the OWNER of the holder of the modified GEN vaccination patent, because they have their own genome and are no longer “human” (without natural people), but “trans-human”, so a category that does not exist in Human… Read more »

Triple & Double Vaccinated accounted for 4 in every 5 Covid-19 Deaths in England over the past month despite most vulnerable getting Booster in October
By The Exposé on December 18, 2021

The latest figures published by the new UK Health Security Agency on Covid-19 cases, hospitalisations and deaths show that the vaccinated population still accounted for 4 in every 5 Covid-19 deaths over the past four weeks even though those who are deemed to be the most vulnerable to Covid-19 received their “booster” jab in September and October.
The ‘Covid-19 Vaccine Surveillance Report – Week 50’ was published by the UK Health Security Agency (formerly Public Health England) on Thursday, 16th December 2021, and it shows that the vast majority of Covid-19 cases between November 15th and December 12th were among the fully vaccinated population.
Source – Page 35

This means the vaccinated population accounted for 59% of Covid-19 cases between November 15th and December 12th, whilst the not-vaccinated population accounted for 41%. However, if we remove under 18’s from the equation, many of whom aren’t eligible to be vaccinated, the figures are far worse for the vaccinated population.

Unfortunately the latest UKHSA report also shows that despite the… Read more »

The ongoing COVID-19 nonsense here in the United States exists solely and exclusively because our governments have failed to use the correct treatment. They used so-called “vaccines” when Japan has just proven, in less than ONE MONTH, that Ivermectin can wipe out the disease. IVM was awarded the Nobel prize for medicine in 2015.

I’m not convinced polls will change the direction of the government.

WE WILL BEAT THIS

The Results so far, starting from the beginning, whenever that was:-

I’m afraid this is all I can remember – Extra hand washing, social distancing, mask wearing, lockdowns, closed businesses and finally, hastily prepared experimental drugs euphemistically called vaccines, which on all available evidence (subjective views from those still alive accepted) have failed. Failed in the sense of being unable to stop covid infection, transmission or illness. Side effects to be confirmed.

Moving on. Not to be outsmarted by the virus changing it’s name, big pharma have cunningly prepared a surprise defence, The Booster, (technically the same as the original but now with added irony) upon which all hopes are based. This together with other unsuccessful counter measures, used on and off before and listed above, should/might work.

The sooner we can get rid of these blithering idiots, the better.

Basically, covid19 vaccines, certainly the mRNA type, can accelerate & potentially lead to certain T-cell cancers.
Additionally, in 50% of second dosed subjects, there was marked lymph node swelling. They AssUMed this was ALWAYS benign, but no studies have been done to exclude a pathogenic process, which this “case report” (a single individual) concludes has happened. In their case, physicians conclude its likely that their covid19 vaccine caused their T-cell cancer.
Look at the remark that no one has apparently even considered the possibility that these new technology agents might have unwanted effects.
How does that mental process happen?

In my personal experience, it does not matter if the academic is at Oxford, Cambridge or Wolverhampton.
They’re equally lacking in intestinal fortitude & just as dependent on Wellcome Trust, BMGF or NIH/NIAID loot. Together those crims Control two thirds of non-commercial biomedical research funding in the world.
That gives those evil bastards unequalled power of influence not only over the individual, cowardly professors but also upon the finance function of each institution.
So even if a professor is a little brave, they’ll get a call from the vice chancellor’s office, warning them “not to bring their department or university into disrepute”.

30% of the UK population (adults and children) has either not received any dose or no second dose of a Covid-19 injection (per MHRA).

Over 4.5 million people have received a first dose but have not yet received a second dose and over 15.6 million have received no dose at all. MHRA suggests 163,172 doses were administered to those with no previous dose and only 45,403 doses to those who had not yet had their second dose.

A total of 1,852 deaths now reported by the MHRA along with over 1.3 million injuries suffered by almost 405,000 people (an average of 3.3 injuries per person) following the experimental Covid-19 injections

Comment on Steve Kirsh’s substack

Sadly, an injected friend of a friend gave birth to a baby with Noonan syndrome, a GENETIC disorder. Her doctor asked her if she’d like to participate in a long term “study” as the rate of babies born with this syndrome has doubled in six months and ALL the Moms were injected.
I had never even heard of Noonan Syndrome before.

Legal public letter from PJH law to Stephen Lightfoot of the MHRA on behalf of Sam White and others, for malfeasance.
These injections are unsafe, still in clinical trial, and should be withdrawn immediately.
Your failure to investigate known concerns amounts to gross negligence in office, and renders you and the executive board liable for serious misconduct in office, mal or misfeasance in public office and, or, rendering all the office holders potentially liable for corporate manslaughter in that you have been wilfully blind to the known harms of the SARS-CoV-2 injections.
You have taken no action. You have a lawful duty to protect the public, and you have wilfully failed in that duty.

The known facts of the SARS-CoV-2 injections are as follows: 1. According to expert evidence relied on by the claimants the US data shows that the SARS-CoV-2 injections are 91 times deadlier than a flu injection. 2. According to expert evidence relied on by the claimants 10 batches of Pfizer SARS-CoV-2 injections are responsible for over 7% of all Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System [VAERS] reported deaths. 3. According to expert evidence relied on by the claimants the true level of adverse events for SARS-CoV-2 injections is likely 11 times higher than that reported by the MHRA. 4. According to expert evidence relied on by the claimants nine months is insufficient time to obtain approval of a regulated injection, such injections usually take twelve years from proof of concept to use. The same expert concludes that the Conditional Marketing Authorisation (CMA) used by MHRA to approve SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in the UK does not sufficiently protect patients from harm, or even death.i Furthermore, multiples of injections, covering a large percentage of the UK population is still ongoing and the risk could involve thousands if not millions of people. 5. According to expert evidence relied on by the claimants there is an… Read more »

More and more I hear the line “I’m not an antivaxxer, but…” and at one time, way back when Pfizer released limited details of their product, I would have said the same. With an absolute risk reduction of only 0.7% and a trial period of a couple of months, it could not be described as either effective or safe, while traditional vaccines are assumed to be both and to be responsible for the great decline in mortality from measles, whooping cough etc. But having taken an interest in the whole subject of vaccines and having looked at the evidence, I have to conclude that clean water, better nutrition, proper sanitation and improved housing are what’s responsible for the decline in mortality, not vaccines, which seem to be not safe at all.

Ditto.

I didn’t think much about vaccines, assumed they were a good thing.

The only thing I could never quite understand was the obsession with widespread uptake. I just assumed that if you had a vaccine you were protected and you needn’t care what others did.

Now I understand it. They don’t want a control group that isn’t vaccinated that will allow to demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt the horrible effects they can have. If uptake is near universal, then it’s near impossible to attribute the harms to vaccines. They can attribute bad effects to whatever they want and no one can prove them otherwise.

The way they’ve pursued legal protection, the way they’ve pushed vaccines, the way the vaccine schedule has been expanded from 3 or 4 diseases when I was a child to 14 now, almost half of that in just the last 15 or so year. It’s disgusting and it’s evil.

All correct Stewart .. but they also need 100% vaccine take-up for the planned vaccine passports that will be required to link with a central bank digital currency.

Herd immunity is an invention, a computer model, to vaccinate more people beyond those at risk- Gatti/Montanari.

Eliminating the control group could well have been a major driver of the smallpox assault in the 60s, which fried my SILs brain.
It certainly is the main driver behind the Covid ‘vaccinations’ ever since they were expanded to those beyond the at risk groups and when incentives and coercion were connected to them.

This relates to the astonishing variability of vaccine batches in terms of SAEs & deaths:
I’ve forwarded this to both FDA and OIG for U.S. Department of Health (office of inspector general). This should bring lots of traction to this. Please promote this research, as it is exceptionally clear that criminal activity within the vaccine community has caused an aulteration of 1% of the vaccine batches, which is why overall we get such poor results. Apparently, some kind of test has been going on. This is exceptionally clear when you see that about 99% of the vaccine batches produce typically 0-3 adverse events in the VAERS database, whilst the other 1% produce typically hundreds to many-thousands of AE, including almost all of the deaths and serious disabilities (maybe even all, I need to check), which aren’t present in the other 99%. here is the posting link:  https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/a-new-presentation-more-harm-than/comments

Those of you who’ve seen any of the videos of batch to batch variability in adverse events will know that of the three in use in USA, JNJ is least prominent in extreme batches (very high numbers of SAEs).
So if FDA pull or restrict JNJ but not the two mRNA vaccines, that’s purely theatre.
Why would they do that, do you think?
I’ve wondered for some time if the really guilty parties are a handful of people in Pfizer / Moderna (in some ways a single entity in relation to influencers).
Easier to pull off if there are fewer “technical crooks”.

It is clear that the harm caused in one location from a batch number ending in 20A was “not distributed widely enough” by Moderna and so was spotted quickly when a number of people in the same location became ill.

“Batches ending in 20A were/are the most toxic batches of all – containing a lethal dosage. The most toxic 29 batches are all ending 20A – and all had toxicities in excess of 1780 x the average. Infact every batch with a higher toxicity than 1780 x ended with this code” Craig-Paardekooper

“The California agency ordered on Sunday not to give any further vaccinations from a shipment of 330,000 Moderna serums that were circulating in the country for administration. The reason given for this was “unusually frequent allergic reactions”. 10 vaccinated persons had to seek medical help within 24 hours. The allergic reactions occurred 30 minutes after the injection”
“Moderna: no comment …
