Morning all.
Good morning.
What do you make of this article that a “vaccine” zealot claims explains the current trend of collapses among sportsmen and spectators at sporting events (including two at football league matches yesterday, on of whom sadly died)?
COVID-19 Can Wreck Your Heart, Even if You Haven’t Had Any Symptoms – Scientific American
I have been trying to engage with him (with mixed results). He is very particular about what he counts as evidence. I promised him I would consider evidence from all sides carefully.
Hopefully Carolyn Barber who wrote this piece of lying propaganda gets dealt with in Nuremberg II.
(I scanned through it, and it’s like something a distressed mentally slow child would dream up. Articles like this are a sign that the “vaccine” pushers have been a bit desperate for a while now.)
BTW: All evidence shows that the so-called vaccines cause myocarditis – among a plethora of other injuries.
Jacinda’s sister?
no doubt who just coincidentally happen to have been recently vaccinated.
If it really did cause these heart problems then why weren’t all these athletes dropping dead in 2020 prior to the vaccine?
Trouble maker. I bet you’re one of those extreme right wing white supremacist transphobic climate denying Ku Klux Klan satan worshiping child molesters. At the very least.
But, it’s not your fault because it’s in your DNA.
[I am messing about, btw]
From the Carolyn Barber article:
“And, of course, an effective vaccine could help prevent cases in the first place.”
No mention in the article of how many of those falling ill had been injected.
On the basis of the above I wouldn’t trust her to dispense an aspirin.
”MORNIN’
When do we march upon the despots?
I’m not much of a leader but I’ll damn well join the fight.
Top of the morning HP.
Cheers CG.
“Children aged two to four will need three doses of Pfizer ‘vaccine’ as two doses have no effect, says Fauci”.
That crook still not in prison yet? Interesting that he is acknowledging that two doses don’t do much – and yet Britain may be about to sack over 100,000 “unvaccinated” health workers on the basis that they pose a big threat compared to people who have had two doses.
Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
Careful – this comment may be considered an abuse of consonants!
“And it’s reached such a point that half of those polled don’t remember a time before the pandemic, where mask-wearing or travel restrictions weren’t the norm” Part of that article in the Mirror. If this is true and this is the level of obliviousness, unconsciousness, and stupidity of some people, then is it any wonder we’re in the state we’re in?!!! This confirms that many people’s brains have turned into soup over the last two years.
How much brain did you ever need to be a Mirror reader?
As for not remembering, re-read Animal Farm. Orwell knew exactly how stupid people were.
I never read animal farm but I recently saw a theatre adaptation of it. I found the plot very, very predictable because Orwell was so very accurate. I had already witnessed all of the warnings played out in real life.
I did read once that “most people go through life living autonomically and unconsciously, barely aware of who or what they are, just responding reactively to stimuli as if in a dream.”
After feeling very different to 99.99%of the population and getting tired of playing the “it’s fun to pretend to be thick” game I’m not surprised about this at all.
Wishy-washy, cheap ‘n’ nasty soup at that!
The Canadian PM, suspected paedophile Justin Trudeau, said:
The little freak claims that a convoy of HGVs – some estimates put it at nearly one hundred miles long – that is being greeted, cheered and clapped in every Canadian hamlet, village, town and city that it passes through are a fringe minority.
More good news is that umpteen “vaccinated” Trudeau has come down with the Browned-Underpants variant of COVID-19. And has fled off somewhere to isolate.
The Browned-Underpants variant is to date the most pernicious strain of COVID-19. Those infected with it quickly develop steaming symptoms that manifests in the upper leg and buttocks areas. These symptoms are usually accompanied by a foul reeking smell with bits of watery brown debris dripping from the ill person’s trouser legs unto their shoes.
In a desperate bid to fight back, Nova Scotia have made it illegal to participate in a truck convoy in any way or line the roadside in support – fines of up to $10,000 for individuals or $100,000 for companies. I can’t see the police enforcing this.

She was arrested for pointing out to mentally ill men with testicles that putting on a dress didn’t magically transform them into females. The book the police seized was Transgender Children and Young People: Born in Your Own Body.
This book was edited by Heather Brunskell-Evans, who is a Visiting Research Fellow at Kings College London. And by Michele Moore, who is a professor and Head of Centre for Social Justice and Global Responsibility.
What would the people that fought the book burning Nazis in the 1940s think if they knew that their own descendants have become just as bad?

Man, the Canadian Truckers descending on the capital is awesome. Methuselah’s cat was slinking around alleyways looking for immoral females the last time I cried; these Canadian truckers have almost got me weeping again – albeit, the G&T drinking expedition I’ve been on this weekend might also be playing a part.
It reminds me of the Normandy Landings.
The signs are everywhere:

I see that the Daily Telegraph have provided an in-depth article about Trudeau et famille fleeing the Canadian capital as the enormous trucker convoy arrives. Oh no, that was the Daily Wail.
The article on the NHS vaccine mandate and it’s effect on medical and nursing students shows the insidious nature of that mandate. It means that nobody in the UK can obtain any sort of medical or nursing qualification without signing up to the NHS vaccine mandate. Even if you wish to practice medicine in the private sector, to get qualified in the UK you will have to sign up to the NHS vaccine mandate. With over 1 million staff the NHS vaccine mandate is a huge prize for the vaccine orientated health tyrants.
With vaccines mandates in whole countries there is every chance they will prove hard to administer and may well fall away with time at least until they have got things better organised. But the NHS vaccine mandate, if it goes through, could well hold and be tightly controlled with other treatments being added as the large NHS workforce is used as a massive experiment in a digital, techno, vaccine, health future, with NHS staff forced to toe the line or lose their job. Whatever freedoms we have got back in recent days seem somewhat hollow in the face of the huge insidious, threatening tyranny of the NHS vaccine mandate.
Excellent point.
First they came for the NHS workers…
There are including my own family, mask lovers and mask haters and never the twain shall agree(not meet) but when we do meet, shall we say that the atmosphere is fairly tense.
Picked this up from Peter Hitchens:
Now at last we can see what the whole shutdown frenzy has really been about. The BBC last week interviewed the Chief Commissar of the Welsh People’s Republic (I think this is his title), Mark Drakeford.
They asked him about the sharp difference between Welsh Covid policy and England’s currently more relaxed view under Johnson.
He replied: ‘In Wales we still have a greater attachment to collective ways of doing things… We don’t have the same attraction that you see Conservative politicians having for that sense of individual freedom trumping everything else.’
https://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/
There’s Dungford for you. That’s what I’m living under. Totalitarianism in a nutshell. God forbid that a sense of individual freedom should trump anything.
The stunning part of this week’s Hitchens article, however, is that Hitchens suggests that Bozo is pro individual freedoms – a complete reversal of everything I have seen from Hitchens up to now. So, was it bribery or blackmail???
Maybe Hitchens was referring to the Johnson in bozo’s trousers
Hitchens is a fashionable non-conformist, a conservative social justice hipster.
Don’t expect consistency from him. Anything he gets right, he gets right by accident and he’ll cancel that out one second later with a moronic absurdity.
After bitching about freedom, he then defends Putin.
Another heart attack at the football. Paul Parish. Any info on vaccination?
Not a heart attack, cardiac arrest big difference. There is, quite rightly, no reporting of the circumstances that led to this man’s unfortunate death. There could be any number of reasons. What was his age? Any previous cardiac history? Until there has been an autopsy and inquest then there is absolutely no way to link the event with any specific cause. I would ask that people desist from making unfounded assumptions and drawing conclusions.
Speaking of “rockers”, anyone remember the 1970’s / 80’s punk band, The Stranglers?
Seems they are going on tour in the UK. It also seems that venues they are using want the Covipass, tests, masks or any combination thereof. I’m not saying this is every venue, just those I looked at. Plus, the rockers themselves will no longer meet fans as they used to, because, you know, covid. Well, I suppose they are all past 60 now, and you can’t be too careful.
I must point out that this was the case last time I looked. Our anarchic punky band members may have remembered when they were against “the establishment”, rather than upholders of it.
But if it is still the case, to quote one of their songs, “Whatever happened to all the heroes?”
Golden Brown was one of their big 80’s hits.
I’m no fan but I take my hat off to Kid Rock not being prepared to play venues who insist on mask/jab mandates and money back to the fans where gigs are cancelled as a result.
Posting about domestic violence can get you banged up and your home searched by Gwent Plod?
Idiots in charge – there’ll probably be a massive payout in compensation. I wonder how long before insurers refuse to insure police forces.
Yes, it is ludicrous, but when it happens to the “all men are rapists” crowd, I can’t say I’m overly bothered.

That’s most definitely the case. And I can’t stop wondering how supposedly “sensible” people could not have noticed it. That is also why I switched my opinion about the covid politics from stupidity/cockup to pure malice (more precisely, there is a narrow group of malicious individuals at the reins and a very large group of stupid/scaredy followers).
I despair!!
