- “Covid panic is a site of inter-elite competition” – Essayist Freddie deBoer thinks the reason elite professionals are so keen on telling people how terrified they are of Covid is because they’re trying to signal how virtuous they are.

So we’re going to lock up the kids again ?!
What was basically a disease of the very old (more over 90s have died with COVID than under 70s), has caused the disruption of education, social life and economic activity amongst all age groups. The neglect of the NHS other than for COVID has caused 10,000s of unneccesary cancer deaths , depression is rocketing, people have wasted two years of their lives.
And to make it worse, these ridiculous restrictions probably haven’t even saved any lives. Take the example of Sweden – on a population and age consistent basis it has lost 2% more lives in total in 2020 than 2018 – around 2,000 people, and it comes around middle of all European countries in terms of lives lost with COVID.
So what are these scientists doing with their time, and why are doctors analysing death numbers when their perspective is so obviously skewed by seeing the most awful end of the COVID spectrum, day after day ? Are we going to get actuaries operating intensive care wards next ?

The vaxxed are spreading the Omicron virus – it’s called “spike protein shedding” through their bodily fluids!
This was never about a virus – it was always about grabbing control from the people, and it worked. Most people just gave up their freedom without so much of a whimper. They gagged themselves, isolated themselves, self harmed by taking a jab they had no idea what it contained, at this rate the human race does not deserve to survive!
“Most people just gave up their freedom without so much of a whimper”.
Yes they did, and some of the middle-ranking types in the command structure of society were surprised at the level and rapidity of submission. They don’t learn much from experience, even if they think they are anything but “workaday” types, so they will be surprised again too. (And not only at house prices – lol!) As for the rulers, they have had such a level of success that there is NO WAY they will do anything other than push forward – and this will shock the sh*t out of many people.
Sorry but Graham Brady and those Tories who don’t like the idea (for themselves or even for others) of “Papers, please” said in a German accent are not going to ride to the rescue.
Correct …very sadly.
I the end it will be stupidity that destroys us.
CV-AIDS (Covid-Vaccine, Acquired ImmunoDeficiency Syndrome)…
AIDS stands for “acquired immunodeficiency syndrome” and although, at present, it’s only used in relation to HIV, I predict that the new term CV-AIDS (Covid-Vaccine, Acquired ImmunoDeficiency Syndrome) will begin to take hold as we see the widespread health crisis arising from the damaged immune systems of those who’ve received multiple injections of these (ineffective and dangerous) experimental gene therapies. I say it with sadness but believe it sincerely.
Agreed. One contender for the bug that will be used for population readjustment against the weakened immune systems could be lab-enhanced flu. Certainly the northern hemisphere winter is young.
There is deliberate sustematic weakening of immune systems, including among children.
I think this will take far too long and isn’t guaranteed to result in optimal population demographics. I’m still of the opinion that hyperinflation is the goal, since it creates an environment in which people will willingly sign over everything to the state including their children, and the population reduction is achieved via starvation and removal of medical care. The fall back being all out war…
‘Creating Chaos’ is on their agenda as are starvation and faked “energy crises” ( make them all suffer!)
They seem to believe they can start a controlled war with Russia in Ukraine as a “diversion” …we shall see. The US has a track record of total disaster playing these dangerous games.
Their plan to crash the Fiat currencies should be a fun time for all of us . Presumably their Robocops will be ready by then for the riots?
Yes – their going for the children should have been the ultimate alarm bell ….but so many of the sheep just bleated their way through it! They haven’t finished yet – there is still the innocent babe in the womb to get to!
There are so many Evil ‘Fellow Travellers’ trying to get near the top of this demonic pyramid- in so many Institutions, meanwhile the ‘bought out’ media prattle their lies, hysterical red twisted graphs, fake stats and brazen propaganda without a care or a conscience.
Totally correct – the destruction of the immune system of the injected is well underway as we see now the millions of adverse reactions and mounting deaths around the world.- no organ is spared!
Fauci of course was in charge if the “HIV causes AIDS” ( contested) vaccination programme … so just the man for this job!
He uses all the same methods to suppress all alternative treatments and genuine scientific opposition.
Making the human race sick and then selling them Pharma products to keep them just alive! The Greatest Scam on Earth ( all just to ‘Save the Planet’ of course!
DR SUCHARIT BHAKDI: ORGANS OF DEAD VACCINATED PROVES AUTO IMMUNE ATTACK 16mins
Doctors for COVID Ethics
On COVID vaccines: why they cannot work, and irrefutable evidence of their causative role in deaths after vaccination – Sucharit Bhakdi, MD and Arne Burkhardt, MD
The only viruses that are dormant are the herpes viruses, and switching to active state is not dependent on the breakdown of immunological defences. Measles remains active but is suppressed by antibodies. Other viruses are present but are controlled by the immune system.
What are your qualifications John? Are you saying you are more knowledgeable than Dr Bhakdi ?
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/282751 I forgot HPV and adenoviruses. Dormant viruses take up residence in cells rather than in bodily fluids.
Go and do some reading. Tell us about generation f pathogenic synthetic spike proteins the immune system and lymphocytes .
“Medical News Today” Whose news? Gates approved?
Some adenoviruses and parvoviruses can be latent too.
Herpes viruses include the Kaposi sarcoma virus that has killed many who’ve had an HIV infection.
Sexually transmitted diseases are for many people little worry at the moment…
But when someone’s immune system has been shot to pieces, it won’t have to be a virus that comes out of latency or causes a rare type of cancer that kills them.
Yes… as with HIV AIDS. which somehow, now suddenly seems to be the ‘model’ for what is gong on.
“A little learning is a dangerous thing” – wise up and drink deeper!
Dr Bhakdi, this clever, brave and compassionate man, has told us what to expect from the start and his warnings have been suppressed by the Evil Cabals.
We are experiencing the unfolding of greatest crime in human history ….and most are still asleep!
Something for statistic nerds. Mortality figures in November 2021: 20% above the median of previous years
That’s what 18 months of “reduced” health service will do for your cancer and heart disease patients. I said to my partner at the time that people may be clapping for the NHS now but they’ll soon be waving it goodbye.
What, no holy trigraph on the army-protected hygiene vans when they trundle into “certain areas”?
(The initialisation was hardly present when the state health service was created in 1948.)
Many can already wave goodbye to free-at-the-point-of-use recovery-bringing treatment for serious problems. This is why they’re encouraged to look at images of rainbows.
Mindless leader-following applause will also give way to terrible furies of murderous pointing. Gustave Le Bon understood that. “A
pyrepandemic of the unvaccinated”.“20% above the median” is a useless stat, in the absence of a measure of spread.
2, 5, 10, 15, 18.
Those numbers have median = mean = 10.
The next year’s figure is 12. That’s 20% above the median.
Now look at these figures:
9.2, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 10.8.
Same median and mean as before.
Again, the next year’s figure is 12, 20% above median.
For a research project: Can anyone find a comparison of “all cause” deaths by Month – comparing 2019/2020 to previous years for the same months. I am trying to see if deaths by “all causes” had gone up a little bit (or by a “statistically significant” percentage in the months just prior to the lockdowns. If so, this might mean that people were ALREADY dying from COVID – However, these deaths may have simply been “missed.” I am particularly interested in “deaths by all causes” among the older age cohorts. This is because I know who COVID is more likely to kill: Those age 75+.
If my hypothesis is correct, there should have been an increase in deaths “from all causes” in these months, especially among those aged 75+. It’s hard to find raw data that just shows the number of deaths.
February 2020 – Compared to Feb 2019, Feb. 2018, Feb. 2017, Feb. 2016
January 2020 – Compared to January 2019, January 2018, January 2017
December 2019 – Compared to December 2018, December 2017, December 2016
November 2019 – Compared to November 2018, November 2017, November 2016.
Note: From the link given above, I can see that the percentage of “all-cause” deaths has increased dramatically in 2021 (and 2020). However, the percentage increase is SMALLER in weeks 41 through 47 in 2019 (compared to 2018 and 2017). This tells me that more people were dying in these weeks in 2019 than were dying in the same weeks of 2018 and 2017. This would fit my hypothesis – that “Covid deaths” may have already started to occur in the late fall and early winter of 2019/2020.
In short, I am looking for deaths by all causes RAW data (total number of deaths – not percentage increases or decreases) preferably by age cohorts (preferably among the older ages) – comparing late 2019 early 2020 to the previous 3 or 4 years, same months, same age cohorts.
I can provide my email address if anyone has any data (especially for USA, but any country).
Showing my work or thought process. From the above link provided by Anti socialist …
Deaths (by week in Germany) – compared to 2021 – percentage increase compared to baseline weeks in 2017 * 2018 * 2019 … Boldfaced percentage increase is 2019. Percentage figure is difference between previous two years (2019 compared to average of 2017 & 2018).
2017* 18* 19
Week 48: 31 29 26 (- 4 % previous 2 yrs) – Nov. 30 to December 5
Week 47: 29 28 23 ( – 5.5 %) – Nov. 22 – 29
Week 46: 25 31 21 (-7 %) – Nov. 15 to 21
Week 45: 20 18 16 (-3 %) – Nov. 8 to 14*
Week 44: 19 18 14 (-4.5%) – Nov. 1 to 7
Week 43: 17 20 15 (-3.5%) – Oct. 25-31
Week 42: 14 18 10 (-6 %) – Oct. 18-24
Week 41: 7 10 6 (-2.5%)
Week 40: 8 8 7 (-1)
Wk 1 to 39: 5 * 2 * 5 * (+ 1.5)
Summary: Deaths were still up a large percentage when compared to same week in 2019 …. but by not by nearly as much as when compared to the same weeks in 2017 and 2018. This leads me to think there were/might have been MORE deaths in these weeks in 2019. Why? Could some of these deaths have been COVID (but attributed to flu, pneumonia or whatever other cause of death)?
But note also that I only have “percentage increases” – not the raw number of actual deaths in these weeks in these years.
Note that for weeks 1 to 39, the number of deaths in 2019 were NOT lower than the previous two years.
GET OFF THE PHONE (song)
I suspect that the hugely reduced footfall in shops isn’t ( so much ) because of covid-fear, or even lack of money, but because shopping is a lot less pleasant when masked, not something to linger over, not the enjoyable social event and entertainment that it used to be.
People do want to be able to breathe properly, smile at people, talk easily, see other people’s faces, etc, relax into the socially-rich/rewarding “hanging out”, that used to be part of the fun/pleasure of dawdling in shopping centres etc, ***before masks***.
I think that a lot of previously “happy shoppers” are, consciously or not, boycotting ( all but essential ) shops until the mask wearing rules are lifted.
If the rest of Britain’s remaining human beings are at all like me, you’re right for sure. I never go into a shop these days unless I have to. I never go into town unless I have to. The revolting, muzzled morons have cast their horrid blight on everything.
Anyway, I like getting parcels delivered.
Same here. I find wearing a mask quite distressing so I won’t wear one. Nevertheless, I also find being surrounded by other people wearing them distressing too, so I avoid it.
My wife, who is a high powered professional in the IT world (can you tell I’m proud) but the site of masks causes her to nearly have panic attacks. First time ever. All she can put it down to is, “It looks like a cult and I’m the unbeliever who must be sacrificed.” She didn’t enter a shop after the mask mandate went into place in 2020 (She has me to do teh shopping) and hasn’t gone in one since it was put back into place. And she’s the one who actually earns our household income, so, might be good to get her back out there.
I feel for her. At first hub did the shopping (because they only allowed one in at the time) and he coped better. But it gets easier. Remember you are taking a strong hold here. Your strength shines a light on their weakness. All I’ve ever encountered is a “scary” hard glare, and I just smiled back. It throws them completely. They really don’t have the balls to take it any further! Ignore them completely or do what I do and actually strike up a bit of conversation. You’ll be surprised that many are only wearing them because they feel they “have” to not because they want to!
She is quite right to call it a cult …look into their eyes!
Out of sheer bloodymindedness when we go shopping we don’t wear masks and have never been confronted – believe me when I say I hoped to have been confronted by a moronic mask wearer but it hasn’t happened. More people should try it!
Same here – most people are non-confrontational- we get a few tuts and furrowed brows, to which I get eye contact, give a big smile and say Morning!!
I used to be like you but I have overcome it by simply pitying them. It gives me an immense feeling of superiority.
And in my region new rules just introduced have removed the “distress” exemption regarding mask wearing so that the vulnerable and others who find it distressing to wear a mask are no longer exempt and have to wear one.
This ….episode…has just confirmed what I think – sorry , have thought for a very long time and with increasing fervour – about vast chunks of society and where they congregate…give me a wood or forest in all seasons, fields, green spaces, my dog and other half.
No contest.
Tend to agree: I don’t wear one and am unbothered about being challenged (because I am never asked), but I can’t bear being surrounded by the maskoids and I can’t understand anyone wearing one. I didn’t realise how much I relied on lip reading until this farce, and I am not even deaf.
The other day we went into M&S. The lady at the pay desk was wearing one of those super thick masks behind a perspex screen – I couldn’t hear what she was saying to me and she had to pull it down under her chin before I understood her, which defeated the object of the exercise really.
All of the above and shopping has moved online.
Shops have no one else to blame but themselves for not standing up to a stupid government and their stupid rules.
Unfortunately these days most shops are chain stores so their instructions come from head office, and of course the folks who own the big chains are part of the same club as the govt.
Follow the money…
This that have stood up are still open – unless closed down by the Cabal’s Minions.
They’re bound to get a few “Karens” on their back if they stand up to it too much and I suspect most will inevitably choose the path of least resistance
Yep. The days when I might have a run out to a nearby town, and wander around the shops, are long gone. I only go now if I must do something, or want something specific.
I don’t wear a mask and never have, but being surrounded by masked up faces is positively dystopian. It also makes me angry, so I stay away.
Before the latest diktat came in, I had noticed that mask wearing had dropped significantly. On some occasions, maskies were in the minority. But as soon as they were asked to mask up again, they dutifully did. That in itself is depressing. I think the government or their advisors noticed this too, and bringing masks back is purely to ramp up fear again. No medical reason behind it, not that there ever was.
And finally….have you noticed the condition of some of those masks? I’ve seen cleaner floorcloths. Crumpled, grubby, even stained….I saw an old chap in a paper mask that was visibly stained yellow/green from snot. Apart from being disgusting, it can’t be doing his health any good.
The whole thing with masks is insane.
The whole thing is insane – masks are just to demonstrate mass compliance with it!
The sheep are too frightened to take off their masks for fear of the ‘authorities’ and the public disapproval of others presented as the ‘majority’.
Germans who opposed Hitler were frightened of expressing themselves in public for of the perceived ‘majority’ aroused by propaganda of the kind we are now seeing and the ultimately violent consequences – behind all this is the veiled threat of punishment and ultimately violence.
The psy-ops gang are good at inventing consensual majorities to set up against oppositional minorities they wish to repress. Michie has said that masks are forever.
Extreme Marxists and Marxist Feminists seeking a total control model CCP society call all the shots and run this rotten Government.
saw a video recently of deputy Irish PM Varadker saying Covid is forever
I’m seeing people coughing and sneezing into their masks, and not putting their hand over their mouth or nose, as if their mask is like some kind of perma-attached hankie – absolutely revolting
‘Social degradation’ and total dependence – also part of the “plan”. The Jews were dehumanised in Nazi run Europe by being deprived of the most basic, decent necessities for a ‘civilised’ life.
The New World Technocratic Order elites seem to be keen on the concept of “de-cultured” ‘Untermenschen’ – but this time it means all of us – levelled down!
All demonstrably true!
They know it is insane – but sanity is now what they say it is -it is just like their twisted ‘truth’.
In reality it is all about submission and power – and of course a benefit for them is that it also harms the wearer ,socially, mentally, culturally and physically- so it is more useful to them than just forcing the wearing a party armband.
Yep, even though I have been shopping maskless since the edict came in, it’s now something I avoid if possible as it’s just not pleasant. I used to enjoy shopping, but not any more.
I’ve not had any hassle for being maskless, but seeing everyone else masked up reminds me that most people still haven’t woken up to what the government is doing to us.
Its a point I have made repeatedly before 19 July to my MP (yeah, i know, but they need to hear it). Studies have shown people spend less time shopping, do less impulse buying, and use more online shopping when mask mandates are in place. But hey, we will all end up working for Amazon sooner or later so why not speed it up and build the monument to Bezos visible from Jupiter.
Spot on! Shopping is no longer a pleasant experience – this government has destroyed any joy in living!
That’s what government is all about
Yes – in order to impose their new ‘way of living’
Yes, shopping is a soulless joyless experience now. I haven’t worn a face nap from the start and I don’t even think about it any more. But at every reintroduced diktat the obedient up their game again – huge drama passes, obsessive hand glooping, and an increase in double masks – the Stockholm Syndrome is off the scale with many. But we are a growing band of hardy rebels. I see more and more now joining us. The Cult members can virtue signal all they like – no cares anymore.
“People want to smile”.
Plenty of laughs with all those wallies you see with them snot rags on their faces these days.
precisely!
I’m definitely getting closer & closer to being an anti-vaxxer with this untested modern technology employed in new vaccines.

Disappointing first entry in Roundup by Dan Hannon.
The Experts have called it wrong on almost every conceivable occasion since befor Lockdown One and if bozo has chosen “not to give in to them” yet it is for his own sly short term personal advantage against Gove or one of the others.
I’m still up for 6pm Tuesday for him to get England fallen into line with new restrictions.
Tim Stanley makes much the same mistake in the following Roundup item, also from The Telegraph.
It’s only just dawned on him that the ‘Conservatives’ gave the country up to the socialist medical establishment almost two years ago and it “may be” too late to get it back.
Really Tim, do you think so?
Why weren’t you listening to us these past 18 months ?
And again for Freddie deBoer with his Substack account of technical elites getting all vaxxier than thou by way of virtue signalling thus driving us to ever widening extremes.
Known all about that for bloody months or more too mate.
Yep, that’s the annoying thing about these articles, the implication that all the nonsense was necessary early on when it really was a ‘deadly threat’, but apparently isn’t any more.
Yes, it’s annoying but we should welcome the fact that sentiment is changing. If converts need to save face by excusing their previous opinions, let them do so and welcome them into the fold. Better late than never, and if they are professional opinion formers with the ear of the public so much the better.
Either that or them coming over as though they have uniquely discovered some hidden truth when it has been perfectly obvious all along which is why I’m disappointed to see Dan Hannon falling for this.
Stanley is an adolescent joke – why bother even reading his stuff any longer? They have all drunk the Kool Aid.
Masky Mark has just extended the facerag to Tuesday of next week. As a result of thousands of tests returning – wait for it – eight cases. But the Perth Cup will go ahead for those who can provide proof of vaccination.
I hope their two jabs and booster shots protect them that long!
Source Greg?
I know no more than you post. So 8 people out of some thousands show traces of a bit of a cold and the result is . . .?
As issued by the High Pontiff’s own servants, Karen.
I draw your attention to the regulations on dancing in particular.
The dancing rules are an open invitation to the Bluebeards and Crippens of the Perth area. Do not accept proposals from strangers.
… dancing (except at weddings) is banned….
LOL get married if you fancy a boogie.
Can we go to the nightclub? Haven’t danced in ages.
No.
Oh.
We can if we get married.
OK! I hardly know you but let’s do that!

Err….hang on! They are sending a text message to every mobile phone in the country •GET BOOSTED NOW
Every adult needs a COVID-19 booster vaccine to protect against Omicron.
Get your COVID-19 vaccine or booster. See NHS website for details•
Let’s not be praising Boris for anything!
The propaganda continues full steam ahead.
Personally, after losing job opportunities, the ability to travel abroad and family relationships through remaining un injected I read the above text last night (was also on work phone) and I thought you know what, this text has really convinced me. I’ve been queing in the rain since 2am at a pop up clinic in a desolate car park. I’ll be asking them to do me jabs 1,2,3 all together. And can they fit in number 4 to save time?
NOT!
Apparently they got the data providers to send the message, in my case EE, so you’ve got no data protection claim to make.
It got sent to my stupid old Nokia yesterday mid afternoon. I use that unit to text and make phone calls because I find it easier.
Later it arrived on this my Android which I only ever use for internet, never as a phone. Only my three closest friends even have the number but are to use it only in emergency if my Nokia is dead which hasn’t ever happened. If I need to discuss an issue about this Android with EE I do so from my Nokia so that i can manipulate the Android, reboot perhaps, while maintaining the conversation.
The same text message went out blind to, presumably, all live/active phone devices regardless of the owners vax or boost status.
If it is so important to contact the NHS website why didn’t they include a link?
Some legal issue there methinks.
What sort of replies would the Hell Service have got if there’d been a number to reply to?
They bloody know, don’t they?
Yeah shame it’s NHS-No Reply
Otherwise some IT guy would have said to his boss
“Look at this! We have 1 million replies to that text all saying exactly the same thing!”
“Oh really? What do they say?”
“Go fuck yourself”.
I never get to red them as they get deleted as soon as I see the sender
I received that message yesterday, and if I’d been able to reply I would have done so with something erudite and carefully considered (‘fuck off you dictatorial cunts’, perhaps?).
This was on top of the three messages from my GP surgery received over the past few weeks – the second and third sent after I had contacted them to reiterate my request from earlier in the year not to contact me about clotshots.
Sending that spam text message to everyone shows a level of desperation. Perhaps it works with some people but it makes me dig my heels in and refuse to comply.
Yeah bit like telling people to take one for Jesus – just because it is Christmas
I think they’ve used the Emergency Message line they set up – purportedly in case of nuclear attack, tsunami warning etc… misuse, I agree, but probably “legal” since we are still under emergency powers
Where are the “Lawyers for LIberty” and “Big Brother Watch”?
Times like this I wish I was still landline only. Or no phone at all like a relative. I wonder if they get the letters instead…
Must be the biggest propaganda campaign since Goebbels.
Ahh Hugh – got to feel for old Goebbels – if only he had had access to cellphone technology….
My son got a phone for the first time over Xmas. New SIM so number never been used before. No one had his number.
Popped the SIM in and within 60 seconds he got a text about boosters from the NHS!
Absolutely appalling. The government and especially an unaccountable arm of the government have no right to his number unless he had given it to them.
surely it’s illegal? If the government has the authority to seize phone numbers then this is a huge misuse of that power?
It’s probable that the message has been sent to literally every mobile number inthe UK number series – they won’t need to know who the numbers belong to for this.
So basically unfocussed spamming…
I have not yet received any messages on my ( uk number ) dumb-mobile phone, despite it being my number for the last 6 years, *and* the number that my last ever GP/clinic ( at last address ) had on record for me. I’ve not been offered a vax, or a test, or approached by the NHS at all during the last 2 years, despite appointments with GP and a consultant back in 2016, and being 58 years old.
NB. Which total lack of contact/msgs I am of course extremely happy about!
I had a letter a month ago asking me if I want a flu vac. I tore it up.
I had two letters early 2021 inviting me to a vac centre 40 miles away. Ditto.
I’m in the process of changing GP. I found a practice further away where a doctor said 8 months ago that she would not be taking an injection for the moment, as she believed in assessing the evidence.
If I hadn’t found them I might have de-registered from any GP. I’m 68, healthy and will hopefully stay that way … if I can escape the advancing fascism.
I had a letter around then as well, but didn’t open it at all, so not clear which jab they were promoting. So far, earlier this year, I’ve had a couple about the C19 jab – one with the leaflet, then later another (with no leaflet). I never replied to either – they did not have a proper return address/agents identity at all (if it was an election they’d be in trouble over that), so I contacted the GP surgery I’m with instead. So far, no more correspondence from them at all.
I don’t think they have all the valid numbers. I haven’t had that junk SMS on that subject, even though my mobile (which is often not switched on) has a number which goes back about 25 years or more; it was an old “Cellnet” one, one of the earlier GSM numbers. However, I’m selective about who has it – e.g. the GP practice I’m with does not know it; landline only with them, but my dentists do. They have a habit of making heavy use of it to prevent patients forgetting their appointments and not turning up etc.
Now we see the emerging face of their “total surveillance” State- modelled on the Chinese Communist Party .
‘Former’ Maoists like Gove and Marr will be delighted!
Will this wake the sheep up?….. no …only the sound of knives being sharpened.
Did they send out a text? Ha ha, I don’t check texts that often on my old Nokia because I hardly get any! I just don’t use a mobile phone. I’ll pick it up and delete it sometime next week…or something.
Forward the text to 7726, Ofcom Spam. They investigate & stop scammers, allegedly.
How have they stolen all the private numbers? Collusion with the phone companies!
One more step to the Police State!
But according to BBC news today apparently over 250,00 people in the UK have responded and got their First and Second jabs so that is almost half a million jabs into arms of people who formerly decided they didn’t want them. Quarter of a million complete hold outs are now first jabbed and another quarter of a million single jabees are now double jabbed. If, of course, BBC news is to believed on that data.
Alex Belfield YouTube tells boris that Omnicon isn’t working and the time for Freedom Day is right now.
Tops off with this from The Sun who a year ago anyone mentioning under skin implants were anti-vax crazies but now itself promotes them as the best way of proving you personal vax status and they will make your life so much simpler.
Yep: it’s The Sun wot spun it!
I couldn’t bear to watch the video in the last piece. Did the muzzled arsehole take its muzzle off in order to spit, or spit through it? If the latter, how come the droplets weren’t all stopped by the muzzle? If the former, how come the arsehole didn’t instantly catch the lurgie and die?
I watched a little. She’s wearing it throughout as a chin warmer!! the hypocrisy of these lunatics
That hypocrisy is outstanding. I think it makes it clear that this lady is suffering a psychological disorder which has been caused, or exacerbated, by the mass hysteria about masks.
It’s all the more outrageous because, despite two years data, nobody has yet produced any evidence that masking has any benefit at a population level: no example of masked and unmasked states or countries having different outcomes. Madness!
If you dare try point that last bit out to the cultists you’ll be told how much worse it would have been without them, oh, and doctors wear them don’t you know.
If you ask them why, in that case, countries with muzzle mandates don’t have lower rates than those without – and why the intruduction / removal of mandates isn’t visible as a change of trajectory on the graphs for any country, they go quiet!
Or in the case of the local MP (I have asked him this speific question and related ones several times) he either doesn’t reply, or if he does reply completely ignores the question.
These non-answers give us our answer. Also, all the skeptics who have challenged the Narrative supporters to debates never get their offers accepted. This has happened to me several times with media in my state. I’ve emailed journalists who do “COVID blogs” and proposed this episode: Have a skeptic debate the officials or someone at your news organization who agrees with the skeptics. This would provide “balance” to your coverage and allow voices that aren’t being heard to be heard, I write.
Crickets.
I also have proposed scores of article ideas that never get written or assigned.
The groupthink in the media is almost 100 percent. This is a big deal. There is NO “diversity” of opinion on COVID topics whatsoever.
The MPs ignore all the questions .. because they can’t answer them without giving the game away.
Huge rise in incidence of mental illness thanks to Johnson Whitty and Vallance – all factored in ? “Create fear and chaos”?
Thanks for looking; like Annie, I couldn’t face it early in the morning. Quite astonishing behaviour – are we sure it wasn’t a spoof by anti-maskers!!!???
Whilst I can understand a man being reluctant to confront this woman surely there were a couple of women ready to take her on – I would have!
She needs a proprietary spit hood not a mask
Did we ever find out if underwear and trousers were enough for “other outlets” (and if so, how come almost all train seats reportedly have faecal matter on them?
You should watch it Annie. It is astounding.
How do the lockdown fanatics, maskateers and assorted morons and willing slaves explain how the world survived the Asian and Hong Kong flu’s of the 50’s and 60’s?
It wouldn’t be the words that dares not speak it’s name: “HERD IMMUNITY”, would it?
Of course not. Herd immunity is bad if naturally acquired but it is good as long as it is achieved by turning the public into pin cushions. Get with the official doublethink.
Think we can get it put into the next NHS budget act that no adminstrator can make more than 5x the average nurse salary? That’s still a tidy sum, but about half that level. Nurses really are the linchpin in the world’s largest civilian workforce, so why should anyone make more than 5x their valuable contribution?
My son hated on-line learning (my daughter is more used to it due to healh issues). He was steamrolling his first year of A Levels and then last December the world stopped and he lost 3 months of education. He is loving his final year right now, lots of friends, consumes economics, statistics and the rest like its his favourite meal, and now he read this. To say he is “not amused” is to be polite. They cannot do this to him. But, they may very wel do just that. He’s in charge of the debate club and wonders if that should be their next topic, you know, if anyone is able to meet together to debate.
Having your son propose a debating exercise on this topic would be an … interesting debating experiment.
Let us know what his teachers and administrators say about this proposed project. Somehow I don’t think they will approve of this debate topic.
The problem with this approach is that a) those who get the jobs end up more vulnerable to bribes and b) they tend to be failed middle managers since the competent ones end up with better paid jobs in the private sector. I’d much rather see a robustly enforced requirement to have no conflicts of interest, along with fundamental changes in the way NHS organisations are allocated funding.
All Nurses and Doctors should resign from the NHS and set up their own parallel operation – people would flock to join! This is not inconceivable!
From Tim Stanley’s article:
Are they really going to claim that as the excuse for throwing the plan out the window?
Another one

This is noteworthy as this story was published on a mainstream site – msn. However, note the “spin” that was put forward in this article:
“These recent, devastating deaths come at a time of heightened awareness about player welfare, with mounting concerns about the workload players are burdened with …”
So this spike in deaths (and near deaths) is caused by “the workload players are burdened with …”
Oh. Thanks for giving us the reason.
Pathetic isn’t it? Sheep still fooled though.

All since 22 December. This tally was collated from press reports available early yesterday so there may well be more recorded since.
I’ll note here that RT seems to be running more stories than usual about this topic – also, about people including celebrities who died from “unexpected” or “sudden” causes. This makes me wonder if RT might have said “Damn the torpedos …” we’re going to write about the elephant in the room no other media organization will mention.
I think at some point some news organization is going to decide – “well, the truth is going to get out; we can’t stop it. We might as well write about it … Maybe history and the public will remember we were the one source of information that did this.”
It’s an easy way to separate yourself from all your non-credible and corrupt “news” competitors.
Here’s a fairly novel business idea: You want to grow your audience? How about running stories (or at least highlighting certain stories) that none of your competitors will touch?
This little idea has certainly allowed The Daily Skeptic to grow its readership to millions … in less than a year. It seems like some other news organizations would reach the same conclusion and employ the same model or strategy. That almost all mainstream news organizations have instead decided to censor and suppress these stories is probably the biggest story of them all. IMO This shows us how “deep” the “Deep State” must be.
Was forced to endure MSM news bulletins as was staying with elderly rellies over Christmas period.
O. M. G – no wonder they are so fearful if that is what they are watching.

RT -for real news excellent documentaries and an alternative spin on Russia! ( now closed down in ‘freedom loving’ Germany! Albeit you have to “work” for your “freedom”!).
Would imagine they are seeing it is getting GB news a tranche of viewers.
There were two more deaths reported at the same time as this one – same circumstances ….”Nothing to see here, move on…Gates, Fauci et al BBC looking the other way of course.
maybe they are also worried “will I be next”??

TCW’s Covid Wall of Shame 1 – our writers’ choices – The Conservative Woman
Blair and his Blairites have caused this. Time for the pro British politicians to stand up before the country is demolished completely
who are the pro-British politicians?
There are many, granted they’ve sat back not sure about the ‘virus’ and the reaction to it
Are these MPs? or local politicians? or people who would never get elected to anything? Forgive my scepticism
There were over a hundred who voted against the government at the last parliamentary vote, my own MP has rejected the government ‘plans’ since this started. I agree, not getting far at the moment but do we just give in?
Good point, I had forgotten already…were there enough tories in that number to eject the PM? I forget the details of how they do that.
Over 500 didn’t vote against it – there you have it – outnumbered 5 to one!
The ones no-one ever elects.
Yes, Blair was the ‘John the Baptist’ to this ‘rough beast’ to be re-born in Bethlehem under the sign of 666. ( apologies to WBY)
Good morning everyone. Two quick points on the news today.
Superdrug are pushing pneumonia vaccinations.
Friend of mine has had 2 jabs +booster, flu jab and then pneumonia jab, which I hadnt heard about until then. She’s just recovered after having to spend 2 weeks in bed with flu of some sort and is now worried about her son who is refusing to be jabbed with anything
What is a pneumonia jab? First question is antibacterial or antiviral?
Pneumonia is one reason why anyone who does have bad flu at the moment that seems to be going on for more than the usual 5-7 days should try to avoid going anywhere near a hospital if they possibly can. Also they should avoid testing themselves for SARSCoV2. If they are unlucky enough to catch pneumonia when they’re at home in bed, believe me – they will know.
There is a pneumonia injection which is for a viral form, it is given every 5 or 7 years, and offered for people over 70. Do not trust my numbers, I type this from memory.
It is compulsory in Italy and thought to be a major contributor to the deaths in Italy last year.
I still wonder if the huge spike in deaths last winter was related to the large percentage of people who had also received their flu jabs. One or two “experts” have speculated the same, but anyone questioning the flu vaccines, or hypothesizing that the flu jabs could be contributing to deaths or severe illnesses is of course censored. I mean, we know we can’t question the efficacy of the COVID vaccines …. Now try questioning the flu vaccines or hypothesizing that these – perhaps in combination with COVID – could be a contributor to worse outcomes.
In short, you dang sure can’t question the necessity of the flu vaccines or the possibility they might somehow be dangerous in times of COVID.
“Huge spike in deaths”? Not according to objective graphs and statistics there wasn’t – in fact below ten year average.
What figures are you using?
It’s probably Pfizer’s Prevnar, which is supposed to give protection against ”pneumonia and invasive disease caused by S. pneumoniae serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F and 23F”
i don’t know much about it, but it formed the bulk of Pfizer’s vaccine sales prior to COVID,
Compulsory vax = death….that’s a useful model to bear in mind then.
Robert Kennedy, Jr. seems to make the point in his book that basically the entire “public health” complex has made vaccinations of ANY kind the reason for these agencies. And this, in turn, has basically led to the control of the entire world population. But the promotion of vaccines started even before COVID. I’ve done a lot of research on the CDC and all the U.S. State health agencies and have concluded that getting everyone vaccinated for the flu was/is THE reason for these organizations. The flu vaccine (needless to say, I think) is certainly not “effective” at preventing the flu in most years with most people, but this has not mattered at all. Every doctor, nurse, school, newspaper and magazine made getting a flu vaccine a primary goal of the health establishment … And, yes, I had heard of the pneumonia vaccine.
It’s all about the vaccines.
You last line sums it up – and the vaccines are all about money and control
I learnt of pneumonia jabs a few weeks ago when we visited some friends both double jabbed and both were ill with ‘colds’ they couldn’t shake off. They mentioned wanting to have a pneumonia jab! My brother in law on going to get his flu jab was also jabbed with the pneumonia one as well, “as you are here have this as well” she said and jabbed him!
I predict that’s how they will get small children to get their COVID jab. Health care providers incessantly push the flu vaccine every time you take your child to the pediatrician (I speak from experience as a parent of two small children). I always pass and get a big frown for doing so. In the future, they will ask, “Do you want to get YOUR flu vaccine today as well?”
For those parents who say, “yes” (a big percentage I’m sure), they will then add: “You want to go ahead and get your child’s COVID vaccine at the same time?”
Vaccines, vaccines, vaccines.
.A randomized placebo-controlled trial in children showed that flu shots increased fivefold the risk of acute respiratory infections caused by a group of noninfluenza viruses, including coronaviruses. (Cowling et al, Clin Infect Dis 2012;54:1778)

Who could have guessed?
why don’t they just score some vitamin D3 and work on shoring up their immune system?
What does one of those supposedly protect against, given that pneumonia can have a number of different causes?
It is against pneumococcal
My wife and I had the pneumonia jab years ago along with the annual flu jab.It is supposed to protect against some strains of pneumonia. In normal circs. I would recommend it along with the flu jabs, but right now we are not having any injections.
Yeah I’m going cold turkey on all vaccines going forward. Until I’ve studied the data a lot more carefully than I have done in the past. All trust is gone now.
In on the act – there is money involved!
I can’t believe it. One nation (S. Korea) actually has protests against all the mysterious deaths of the vaccinated. And one media organization – RT – actually covers this.
https://www.rt.com/news/544464-south-korea-vaccine-death-protests/
Protests over post-vaccination deaths spread across South Korea
One of the most vaccinated nations on earth is seeing increased public pushback over Covid-19 jabs, as demonstrators in South Korea are demanding accountability for deaths that they blame on the shots.
Protesters gathered in Busan on Sunday after a similar rally was held in Seoul on Christmas Day. Aggrieved demonstrators held up large portraits of deceased family members – like those typically displayed at funerals in South Korea – and testified as to how their loved ones died soon after being vaccinated against Covid-19.
Dozens of funeral portraits were displayed at Saturday’s demonstration at the government complex in Seoul. Protesters called for the government to identify the causes of adverse reactions and admit that vaccines are to blame.
More than 1,000 South Koreans died shortly after receiving Covid-19 shots, but the government has confirmed a causal connection to vaccines in only a few of those cases. In one of the rare instances where a serious adverse reaction was acknowledged, a nursing assistant was recognized in August as a victim of an industrial accident and awarded government benefits after suffering paralysis in the wake of receiving AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 shot.
And this in a society noted as being very conformist.
You can believe it if you can accept accept that we no longer have a free, independent and objective media in this country – which we do not!
We need to turn it off and stop swallowing the lies.!
Your daily reminder that no matter what happens in the future, the Boris Johnson Government has committed egregious crimes against humanity, including breaking all ten clauses of the Nuremberg Code, by forcing experimental drugs on men, women and children and suppressing news of the adverse effects. The entire government must be arrested, charged and sentenced in a war crimes tribunal.
Why can’t people understand that the pharma companies will accept no liability plus the results of their experiments are to remain a secret for 75 years. It appears a cold capsule does as much good for the symptoms of the ‘virus’ which most people don’t even know they have without a test.
I am pretty sure I had the lurgy in late 2019 and dealt with it by taking Flu Strength Lemsip and Strepsils. Of course, at the time I put it down to a simple case of flu, and nothing more. Within two weeks I was up and (literally) running again. Not had any colds, flu or any other respiratory symptoms since.
And I whole heartedly agree with ‘Horse’. The Johnson regime, as with all the others guilty of crimes against humanity, must be held to account.
They were given immunity by their allies the politicians, who couldn’t care less about vaccine injury and deaths!
In fact “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet” I can hear them say!
My New Year’s wish for 2022? That all those who are complicit in the horrendous crimes against humanity, over the past two years, are ‘outed’, charged accordingly, face trial, and are brought to justice. And I don’t care one iota about their social status or position in life.
Roundup: Mask cultists
If I am wrong, then I will admit it. And after watching the clip of the two unmasked passengers on that flight, I am forced to admit that I have been catastophically wrong. The shockingly irrational behaviour of the unmasked woman in the ailse (Karen, I believe), has truly opened my eyes.
I now feel deeply ashamed and foolish, for hitherto being swept up and taken in by these deluded and, quite fankly dangerous, unmasked fools.
Satire?
Yes, it is. Maybe I should declare this each time? But that kind of removes the fun/meaning a bit.
I have noticed that my recent spate of similarly framed posts have been largely ignored – so maybe I should dispense with this approach?
I’d add: Gessler’s hat, assault on ones bodily autonomy and intelligence and opening a box of the Pandora with regard to what’s next, as we can now witness with vaxx mandates, vaxx passes, penalties etc..
From Mike Yeadon:
“This really is a helluva article. I recommend reading it.
I’ve mostly stuck to the science, which doesn’t support masks in relation to respiratory virus transmission.
But much of the distress caused, psychologically, hit hard. I realised I feel most of these. It’s worse for those who know this is theatre.
Best wishes
Mike
“In a nutshell – as was just stated – mask wearing is to many people something that is enormously stressful, and something that evokes inordinately powerful negative emotions. This is simply the reality, irrespective of whether such feelings “make sense”.”

How to create a new panic. I hope the id of Omicron relying on S-gene dropout, SGTF only doesn’t mean a new variant sneaking in without us knowing. Without full genomic sequencing it’s possible we’re all going to die from the mutants from hell. Or maybe not.
Yes they are insane. The problem is they are trying to take us all with them! The Cult of Blind Unreason has arrived and the arch manipulators are happy with what they have achieved so easily!
Where are the ‘honours’ for the servile BBC, which has played its part in the 24/7 propaganda so eagerly! No talk now of its reform from a smugly satisfied Government – it has been far too useful.
