by Will Jones
23 January 2022 12:53 AM

  • “‘We’ll work from home forever’: Civil servants vow to fight returning” – Boris Johnson is pushing for an end to the working-from-home culture, putting him on a collision course with senior officials, who are planning to keep a large number of their staff working from home, reports the Mail.
  • “Jacinda Ardern will force Covid contacts to isolate for 24 days” – New Zealand Ministry of Health announced the strict measures as the country battles to stay Covid Zero despite the threat of the highly contagious mutant strain, reports the Mail.
  • “Covid experts say stop subjecting our children to weekly swab tests” – The Mail on Sunday reports that despite the end of Plan B restrictions and a return towards normality, some primary schools are still requiring children to take up to five Covid tests a week.
  • “Doctors demand investigation of vaccine-related child deaths” – TCW Defending Freedom publishes in full the urgent letter from 80 doctors and scientists to the Government and its advisers.
  • “We need to talk about the vaccines” – Public debate on side-effects is being censored, writes Dr. Vinay Prasad in UnHerd.
  • “Rwandans Vaccinated by Force, According to German Broadcaster” – Rwandans say that local law enforcement authorities are rounding up individuals to physically force coronavirus vaccine doses injections without consent, reports TrialSite News.
  • “The besieged narrative” – The pandemic narrative we have all been hostage to is in trouble, writes Omar Khan in Daily FT.
  • “New Covid variant spreading like wildfire across UK and Scandinavia: BA.2 ‘stealth’ mutation now half of all new coronavirus cases in Denmark and rapidly pushing Omicron aside” – Various media across Scandinavia and the U.K. are reporting the emergence of a new, fast-spreading Covid variant, reports City AM – but look closely and it’s just a subvariant of Omicron.
  • “Israel’s Finance Minister Calls For The Ending Of The Green Pass” – “I am working with all parties to eliminate the Green Pass and maintain a normal routine for all of us,” the Finance Minister has said, according to i24News. “There is no medical and epidemiological logic in the Green Pass, and many experts agree.”
  • “A chilling totalitarian impulse is now subverting free societies from within” – It is alarming how many people, even now, want to irrationally keep unnatural restrictions on our lives, writes Janet Daley in the Telegraph.
  • “We must never abandon children during lockdown again” – Since March 2020, children have missed the best part of two full terms, and the impact on them should not be understated, writes Debbie Hayton in the Spectator.
  • “Will Europe’s Politicians Ever Get their Coveted Universal Vaccination?” – The vaccination mandates represent a massive infringement of human rights and their medical justification has dwindled over time, writes Mihai Macovei on Mises Wire.
  • “Unmask America” – Enough is enough. It is time to stop wearing masks, or at the very least to eliminate mask mandates in all settings, writes Jeff Deist on Mises Wire.
  • “Complaints about GPs triple, with focus on difficulty of getting an appointment” – However, the number of patients providing feedback about a good experience with their GPs also rose, reports the Telegraph – suggesting it’s fine if you can see one.
  • “America’s climate alarmists have been made to look like fools” – Looking back at an hysterical prediction from 2004 is both amusing and comforting, writes Michael Deacon in the Telegraph.
  • “YouTube strikes again: Another Bournbrook video cancelled” – The video gained over 1,200 views in less than 24 hours, and a few hundred more after that. It has been removed by YouTube as “medical misinformation”, reports Bournbrook.
  • “BBC makes ‘woke cuts’ to archives, including Dad’s Army” – The broadcaster has purged a number of racist and misogynistic jokes as well as mentions of disgraced stars Jimmy Savile and Rolf Harris in the latest Year Zero move, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Industrialist Sir Richard Arkwright profited from the slave trade, says English Heritage” – Updated online blue plaque includes claims that the “Father of the Factory System” benefited from a system that “exploited enslaved workers”, reports the Telegraph. Tenuous.
  • “Joe Biden’s Civil War re-enactment” – Tightening voting laws isn’t segregation and Biden is being grandiloquent to claim it is, says Lionel Shriver in the Spectator.
  • “The mystery of Canada’s indigenous mass graves” – When a young anthropologist claimed in late May 2021 that she had discovered 215 unmarked graves near the Kamloops Residential School in British Columbia, a wave of horror swept across Canada. But were they graves at all, asks Jane Stannus in the Spectator.
  • “My personal decision was based on the fact that I have had the infection, I’ve recovered from it and have a degree of natural immunity now” – Watch NHS infectious diseases consultant Simon Fox on GB News on the reasons behind not getting the Covid vaccine.
