The near vertiginous rise in the growth of coral over the last five years across Australia’s Great Barrier Reef should put the tin hat on the ubiquitous Armageddon predictions of the imminent collapse of the reef – at least for the time being. According to the latest survey by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AMS), coral cover rose by 27% in the northern reef. Massive growth of 26% and 39% were recorded in the central and southern areas respectively.
As late as October 2020, the BBC was telling stories about the Reef losing half its coral and citing a study that said it was due to “warmer seas driven by climate change”. No doubt the recent heartening news of recovery will delight Extinction Rebellion supporter and Guardian activist George Monbiot. He was one of the first to start the coral doomsday ball rolling by telling his readers in 1999 that the “imminent total destruction of the world’s coral reefs is not a scare story”. Forecasting that most of the coral in the Indian Ocean will die by 2000, he suggested that one of the world’s great ecosystems “is now on the point of total collapse”.
Tropical coral thrives in waters between 24°C and 32°C. It is highly adaptable but seems to dislike sudden changes in temperature, often caused by natural weather oscillations such as El Niño events. Under such conditions it can die back and bleach, but as recent evidence shows, it quickly recovers when normal localised conditions return. Global warming started to run out of steam a couple of decades ago and there has been a standstill for at least seven years. However, minor long term temperature changes are unlikely to cause many problems for highly resilient coral. The resilience is clearly shown below in the latest AMS figures for the northern Reef.

The recovery was just as dramatic in the central part of the reef.

AMS data for the northern and central Reef, where water temperature is higher, show that there were very rapid increases in the coral cover. This was helped by few ‘disturbances’, of which the most significant was a recent absence of crown-of-thorns starfish attacks. It is also noted that most of the recent increase is due to the fast-growing Acropora coral – which of course accounts for a lot of the routine die backs when conditions turn less benign. All of this looks like natural processes, although the AMS is still wedded to the notion that human-caused climate change is a major culprit. The Reef remains exposed to “the predicted consequences of climate change”. The observed recovery “can be reversed in a short amount of time”, it says.
Significant research into the Reef only got going in the mid 1970s. Before that, the area was largely unobserved and few records about bleaching and temperature changes were made. Last Monday, the Daily Sceptic reported that a treasure trove of 1871 sea temperatures taken on board a scientific mission travelling the length of the Great Barrier Reef had recently been compared to current measurements logged at the same areas. No differences were found by research scientist Dr. Bill Johnson, leading him to conclude that: “Alarming claims that the East Australian Current have warmed due to global warming are therefore without foundation”.
The dataset has been know about for a few months but largely ignored, presumably because the findings disturb the current political agenda. A common dismissive trope was that the measurements were likely to be inaccurate. However, it seems unlikely that a group of scientists in 1871, on a scientific mission travelling to view a total solar eclipse off Cape York, were unable to correctly use a thermometer. The readings may have flaws and be open to other interpretations, but they undoubtedly offer an interesting insight into the history of the Reef. Certainly, such rare data should not be dismissed out of hand.
The lack of vintage temperature data is a big problem in the climate world. The main surface temperature database used by the IPCC and scientists around the world is HadCRUT, run by the U.K. Met Office Hadley Centre and the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia. A recent PhD student John McLean found that the database was started in 1850, but after five years just three stations were reporting data from the whole of the southern hemisphere. It wasn’t until 1950 that 50% of the area was covered.
Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see if the Reef’s dramatic recent recovery affects the huge funds and grants that have poured into the area over the last 25 years. Biologist and long time observer of Reef politics, Jennifer Marohasy has documented the growth of the finance involved since 1998. This was when the World Wildlife Fund launched its campaign focused on the Reef, and saw its Federal Government grant increase seven-fold over four years to A$3.5 million. She notes that Reef temperatures are now monitored by the AMS at 80 sites, “and do not show a long term warming trend”. Furthermore, says Marohasy, there are no studies showing either a deterioration in coral cover or water quality. But still the headlines suggest a problem, she reports.
In January this year, the Australian Government announced A$1 billion to save the Reef. In Marohasy’s view, “This is really protection money to be paid to the Reef Mafia; not really to protect the Reef”. There will be a rush to get the money, she continued, “and then it will be taken out into the pockets of the many who will continue the myth of the dying Great Barrier Reef”.

DS, are you out to depress and demoralise us today? Because it damn well looks like it.
Mr. Young has to tread a fine line when posting pieces ATL in the MSM. The fact that he created DS with a comments section that’s unmoderated speaks volumes to me. Amen to that.
If he were to go all in with truth-bombs about this rolling technofacist agenda his MSM profile would be cancelled, blocked… extinguished.
I’m certain his strategy is to hint at what the darker realities of this current dominant vaccines and boosters are best phase is, that and the green passes are for the safety of the greater masses BS spiel.

Yeah, the ending with the ‘politicians fallacy’ ruined the article. I know Toby wants to retain ‘credibility’. However you have to speak the truth. The ignorant have their excuses, Toby doesn’t.

Its started in the Northern Territories, Australia. The Army is transporting ‘positive cases and contacts’ to Camps.
Its OK though, because its ‘only’ Abos.
This is EXACTLY how it started in the 1930s. The most vulnerable of society were used as example, then it grew to anyone that disputed the rulers.
Clive James was right, Australia is a nation of prison guards, not convicts.
Can you post a link please to news about the arrest and transportation in Australia of aboriginal people labelled as “positive cases and contacts”.
It’s increasingly seeming that what we need – and what we may get if we act fast and we spread information about the anger that is growing in several countries – is an international general strike.

“the evidence suggests they are less likely to become severely ill or die for the disease”
I presume you mean after the vaccines took out all the dry tinder?
*That* is the only benefit claimed for these “vaccines”. Since they emerged we have been told repeatedly that they neither provide immunity from infection, nor prevent transmission (all of which I believe).
Their only benefit, apparently, is that they reduce the severity of symptoms (I have seen no evidence to doubt (or believe) this).
So, apart from self-preservation (which doesn’t bother me; quite frankly sometimes I’ve lost the will to live), the only benefit to anyone is that I might not use NHS resources someone else might need.
Therefore, it seems to me, the vaccines should be reserved for the extremely vulnerable, or as a proxy, the old. Am I wrong?
Let’s see how that goes. After all, we’re assured the risks are negligible, and disinformation. No one will be killed, and even if they are, well, they’re old bastards, so it doesn’t matter.
As one of the unvaccinated, I’m 100% protected from immediate adverse reactions, I’m 100% protected from any long term effects and I’m at least 99.8% protected from death due to covid. I’ll run with those odds.
Superb comment.
One-upmanship here…Having tested positive and apparently recovered from the COV I’m also protected from the COV as I’m immune.

Circulation is THE journal for heart stuff. How come they’ve printed it? were they not got-at like the others?
It’s hard to fudge or explain away in peer review. A standard test used day in day out to monitor susceptibility has seen a massive increase directly in relation to the administration of the vaccine.
It lends weight to its clarity that in such a climate it still got published
We’re way beyond science and logic I’m afraid.
The idea, or myth, is that the ‘vaccines’ provide some amount/percentage of protection – that it is less easily to catch the virus, less easy to spread it, and less easy to die if you get it.
Some people will claim there have been studies to prove this, but they can never find the paperwork, can they?
Let’s not forget that those countries currently experiencing surging
infectionspositive test results…“At the moment,
casespositive test results in England are creeping up…”Fixed that for you, Toby; positive test results are neither necessarily infections, nor are the necessarily cases.
FFS, man!
And even if some are actual real cases, well, it’s nearly December. Have the government and media not noticed what respiratory viruses normally do at this time of year?!
There will be blood on the streets.
The powers that be have war gamed all this – no doubt computer modelled. (Maybe by a Mr. Ferguson – never underestimate the incompetence of those in charge).
I wonder if they worry, just a tiny bit, that it won’t work out as planned. If I were them, I’d be a little bit afraid.
They may end up hanging off lamp posts – and we are going to need a lot of them.
Hi there 77th.
I completely agree they have war-gamed all this. However, like you I am wondering about potential cracks in their plans.
Have the ‘vaccines’ not turned out as planned? Is the resistance higher than imagined? You do have to wonder.
The hard nut to crack was always going to be the U.S. And the non-compliance and legal challenges there is very noticeable.
And if things are going wrong, what’s their exit strategy? You see for me, once they rolled out the ‘vaccines’, it became an all or nothing game. And if that is the case, you could well see many ‘storming of the bastille’s’.
Should I be dusting off my pitchfork yet?
“And if things are going wrong, what’s their exit strategy?”
It used to be start a war. I suspect Putin or Jingping may help us there. They must be looking at the West and thinking; “what a bunch of pussies, we can grab whatever we want from these stupid, scared children”.
The problem the left has is an inability to listen, and to imagine how their opposition thinks.
You can hang 3 at a time off one of the wind totems pushing up your electricity bill.
Price of petrol in Finland gone up 42% within the past year. I counted it today. Filled up yesterday – 98% octane now 1.99 Euros/litre.

How much of petrol cost is government overhead (tax)?
The bastards orchestrating this will melt in to the background if they fail and the ones paying the price will be the likes of Bozo, Carney, Jabit and the like.

Susan, you are correct.
As usual.
Let’s hope that Professor Pantsdown modelled it for them then. He’s fucked every model he ever meddled with. Unfortunately, in reality they will have modelled this extensively using real data scientists and machine learning, using all the data that arsebook and friends have been scooping up from morons. Our best hope is that they don’t realise that only the morons were in their data sets.
I think I may build some models of my own. Factoring in (1) predicted continued wankeriness of the government (2) greater number of unvaccinated among younger, angrier, more testosterone fuelled people (3) increasing evidence that the so-called vaccines are shit (4) preponderance of lampposts in the Westminster area
There is a Robert Dyas on Artillery Row. I bet they do rope of some sort.
I am going for peak fury in March.
“unvaccinated among younger, angrier, more testosterone fuelled people”
You’re showing your age. They’re now snowflakes worrying about pronouns. Maybe it’s the plastic consumption that did it? I bet Testosterone levels like fertility is significantly lower than it used to be.
If it looks like it will fall apart they’ll start a war.
Which is even more fecking frightening now the world has nukes. The people “in-charge” are egotistical, power mad, idiots and they will screw up eventually. Unfortunately, if COVID fails they’re lining up climate change. Our only hope is a chain reaction of sheeple awakening.
Nuclear and global war has never been more likely than it is right now in my opinion.
IN fact, a civil war in America – most states divorcing themselves from D.C. – might be the only thing that prevents this outcome.
That is, fight a little war to prevent THE big war.
But I don’t know that a war is guaranteed or inevitable if large number of states seceded. Didn’t many states/countries secede from the USSR without any wars?
And as it’s the Republicans with the guns, we can look forward to a better USA!
The trouble with this article is that it doesn’t account for the vaccines’ effect on the jabbed, which includes obedient members of the security forces. When a msm organ like the Daily Wail can talk of failure of the immune system (rather than failure of the vaccines/boosters) then maybe it’s time to sit up and take note. There are multiple liens of evidence to suggest this is happening, and that leaves aside the effects of the jab on the vascular system.
Will there be enough prison spaces for the unjabbed, and will the agents of the state be healthy enough to use force against the unvaccinated?
The NHS in the UK is collapsing – it’s taken only two years for the politicians of the UK to flatten the system. the situation is no better in the EU27 or in Israel. I fear – or rather the jabbed should fear – that we are rapidly moving towards the endgame in this culling operation.
Who is supposed to survive?
The unjabbed will survive.
Perhaps not survive, but ultimately will be saved.
Some anonymous geezer in the Guardian today says ICU is full of the unvaccinated – my patience with them is wearing thin.

I’m sorry but that’s horseshit and it’s easy to see why: The basic claim is that vaccination changed COVID from a serious disease for the old and frail to one predominantly affecting healthy, relatively younger people. It’s not only that we had this particular piece of BS in ad nauseam repetition at evey turn of COVID since March 2020, it’s also not possible right now: This would also have happened before COVID vaccines were available and then, the known death profile (roughly in line with naturally occuring deaths) of the disease had been different.
Apart from that, someone who works as consultant for the NHS who makes a statement to the effect of I’m getting seriously pissed off with the sick people I’m getting paid to treat! urgently needs to be kicked out of his or her position to avoid the next bunch of sensational headlines of health workers killing patients because they were disgusted by them. Wouldn’t be the first time.
I know, can you imagine? Would we under any circumstances tolerate a consultant saying “Ugh these disgusting fat people with their type 2 diabetes and malodorous foot ulcers. I am losing patience with them. I am seriously pissed off. Why don’t they just say no to the pie?”
No we would not. It would be beyond unprofessional (not to mention biting the hand that feeds them….without sick and injured people, we would have no need for hospital consultants). They are NOT paid to judge!
By the government double speak, this is probably correct. Only two jabs without a booster and you are unvaccinated. Not to mention within X amount of days of being jabbed, you are still unvaccinated.
Either way, it’s propaganda.
In Ireland they’ve said the same. The underlying context was that the ICU unvaxxed are declared so because they are immunocompromised and haven’t had the vaccine, or a booster even.
The evidence suggests they are less likely to become severely ill or die for the disease, but even those benefits wear off over time, which is why the Government is urging people to get the booster.
that much , at least , is quite true.
If vaccinated people can transmit the virus, what is the point of banning the unvaccinated from bars, restaurants and other public places?
In Germany and e.g. Wales, this is a case of pour encourager les autres, or um die andere ermutigen, for better or worse that is the object.
wear off over time
Worse they become liabilities.

It’s one of the big stories at Zero Hedge.
This is real. Not a movie.
The reason I have chosen to not get my booster is precisely because it’s likely the vaccines are causing reduced immune responses. When you add to that the limited duration of the vaccines, the use of vaccines for any but the most at risk has become not just a weird religious view but dangerous. Focusing on successful treatments is what is needed. And then a reminder that age-adjusted mortality is essentially normative in history. We don’t want anyone to die, but sadly, death will find us all.
lets hope the first 2 haven’t already defined your future….
If you don’t take your booster like a Good Citizen, you’ll have 10 days self-quarantine every time you come back to the UK, with Serco and Mitie checking up on you.
when we get bogged down in the blah blah we will never get to the route of the problem, an the problem likes it that way
Well let’s get rid of those making these Covid rules. That, to me, would stop all this in an instant.
Fact is, if the rules stay, it’s 10 days quarantine for any ‘unvaccinated’ person arriving to the UK. I have heard no tales of people who have broken this quarantine, but I have read tales where Mitie marshalls do come round to see if you’re where you’re supposed to be.
I can assure you, plenty of surveys have shown a majority don’t keep the quarantine. My lived experience would show this to be true.
Though I think a lot of people like the excuse to “W”FH for a bit.
I know people who’ve broken it, no checks at all, though admittedly that was last year.
Whoever it was some one phoned me when I arrived in the Uk where I was supposed to self isolate. Changed my sim card and nothing after that.
Needless to say I didn’t ‘self-isolate’ and that was June of this year.
That’s OK. I think there will be enough booster refusers + everything refusers to outnumber the Mitie numpties on minimum wage. What do they do when you don’t open the door? shamble off again. If anyone asks, you just say you were indisposed and unable to come to the door.

This so-called bloody illness is no worse than seasonal ‘flu and we here should always bear that in mind.
Have we ever mounted a propoganda campaign of such nastiness ever before?
So, we must always remember that what us taking place has bugger all to do with public health.
Governments worldwide are waging war on their populations and for two aims:
Depopulation and enslavement of those remaining. I don’t believe any of us can imagine the depths of depravity the Carney’s, Fauci’s, Sorros, Gates’, Johnson, Andrews, Schwab and all the others will plumb to attain their evil and macabre ends.
We are in a fight to the death.
I think it’s more likely that European leaders will end up being imprisoned by the families of those lost to vaccine injuries when the truth comes out. And that’s if the European leaders are lucky.
The same families who did nothing when their elderly relatives were murdered by starvation, dehydration, neglect, and a large dose of Midazolam in the don’t-care-homes?
Yes. Them. When they realise what happened.
”You might as well ban people with ginger hair for all the good it will do.” steady on, do not give them any more ideas, it is bad enough as it is!
This is now like a huge ponzi scheme; as the adverse reactions and the evidence of ineffectiveness pile up, they up the ante more and more. Eventually they will either get away with the biggest, most evil and malevolent scam of all time or the whole house of cards will come crashing down. I would like to think the latter option will come true but I would have to say that at the moment I am not optimistic on that one.
“Winter Covid crisis” Lol. There was never a covid crisis. The only crisis related to covid was caused by evil governments and their lackeys and hangers-on.
“The Religious Faith of European leaders in Vaccines” Oh for goodness’ sake give it a rest. They don’t give a toss about covid or the vaccines.
Spot on.
I see no signs whatsoever of any kind of crisis – covid or otherwise. I see a lot of people trying to get on with their normal lives – no one is dropping dead in the streets – but for some obscure reason the health minister wants everyone, jabbed and unjabbed alike it seem now. to be locked up in their own homes.
There are so many of us that they haven’t got space in the prisons – they will have to put us in camps run by the army. And they’ll have to put tanks on the streets to cover their goons when they’re out searching house to house looking for us.
An Austrian nurse friend reports that the authorities in Austria are threatening to fine people about 1500 euros for not taking the “booster”, to fine them up to 3600 euros for refusal to vaccinate, and to jail them if they repeatedly refuse vaccination “requests”. She is optimistic. She writes that if the government stays on this path “they will just make both the vaccinated and the unvaccinated angry” and “if things continue like this there will be a general strike” and, if it comes to it, a war.
It was invigorating and a pleasure to read her message.
Huge respect to all Austrian people who are resisting fascism in Hitler’s birth country. WE LOVE YOU!
Totally agree well done to them all this weekend. Loved the scenes out of Rome, just wow
I’m watching what happens in two countries – Austria and Australia.
Will the people in both countries take what’s happening or not?
Religious faith? Ha! I’ll take Aquinas over Whitty any day of the week.
And then St. Maximilian Kolbe…
Can someone here read German? If so, please look at this site. I’m told it’s somewhere that lets people in several countries register for a clinical study that “allows” you “medically” to avoid vaccination – and it’s free and you can withdraw from it at any time. (If this is a scam, don’t blame me. That’s what I’m trying to find out.) The countries don’t appear to include Britain at this time, but they include Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
https://www.ungeimpft-gesund.info/?l=1
This looks genuine to me (I’m German). But it’s just about an observational study about the general life and wellbeing of people who chose to remain unvaccinated (as far as I can tell by a quick look). There’s a so-called Eingetragener Verein (registered, private society/ club) behind this and the bylaws state they plan to operate world wide.
I think this falls some way short of an officially-approved exemption of the kind that would be accepted as a substitute for a vaxxpass, for example.
That said, it’s always worth asking anyone who is keen on the jabs, and who is aware that they are still in trial until 2023, how big the control group is, how it’s being managed etc. One of the oddities about these drugs is that, whereas most clinical trials in Stage 3 involve close personal contact, follow-up and monitoring with trial subjects, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of that going on right now…
The NHS website says that any treatment in Stage 3 trials is “compared against an existing treatment or a placebo to see if it’s better in practice and if it has important side effects”.
Is anyone here aware of the drug companies collating this data other than through their customer’s (i.e. the government’s) own statistical reports?
Does anyone know what the existing treatment or placebo is that is being used as a comparator?
I’ll take a closer look when I come back from the dentist today. There doesn’t seem anyone from the UK registered yet but I will try.
and if it does seem kocher how does a non-german speaking person access and navigate their way around what is being offered?
“(T)he evidence suggests (the vaccinated) are less likely to become severely ill or die for the disease”
I disagree with that statement. But how does that alleged benefit of vaccination compare with the benefit of a vegetarian diet, for example? (Many other behaviours that are good for the immune system could be mentioned too.) According to this study published in the BMJ, vegetarians and pescetarians “had 73% (…) and 59% (…) lower odds of moderate-to-severe COVID-19 severity, respectively, compared with participants who did not follow these diets.”
Strangely that study has never been mentioned from behind a lectern in Number 10 or on the front page of the Heil.
Extract from a letter sent to the NZ Medical Council from a retired Doctor in Tauranga.
“… the still birth rate has rocketed. Usually there are 114 still births per year for the entire country but in just two weeks Hastings alone had 9 still births in vaccinated mothers who were following your advice to get the vaccine. You are responsible for the death of those babies. You have blood on your hands. I suppose you are also in denial regarding the deaths of teenagers.
We have 2 siblings dead after the vaxathon in Christchurch – a girl aged 15 and a boy aged 17. Plus a 17 year old boy in Northland and a 13 year old in the South Island – both dead the day after their vaccination -and a 14 year old boy in South Auckland who died 2 hours after his vaccination. Also the 17 year old girl whose death should have stopped the roll out but was instead blamed, prior to any autopsy report, on the pill – which she had been prescribed some time prior so therefore the GP would have checked for clotting risk factors at that point in time.
I know a lot more about this case then you do as I know close family friends. I am also aware that the government has asked families involved with severe adverse reactions and deaths to sign waivers that come with financial settlements. This blatant attempt to further cover up vaccine failures is abhorrent, as is the gagging of the media at the cost of millions of dollars of tax payer money.
Why don’t you speak up against this propaganda ? Why do you sit quietly and do nothing while the government promotes a drug that should never have passed Medsafe? And to add insult to injury, in promoting the vaccine you have violated the Nuremberg Code in its entirety. You might like to look that up and familiarise yourself with your offences. You are all guilty of crimes against humanity. And if you think I am exaggerating, you are wrong.
I have all of your names and I have forwarded them – except for Dr Goodman, who I know is in her heart a very decent person – along with the names of Dr Bryan Betty and Dr Samantha Murton and the NZ board of the RANZCOG, to Dr Reiner Fuelmich. Dr Fuelmich is an international trial lawyer who has successfully sued large fraudulent corporations eg Volkswagen and Deutsche Bank. His worldwide network of lawyers has listened to over a hundred experts from every field of science and medicine relating to the current PCR / Covid fraud. In due course he intends to put a Nuremberg 2 trial through the International Criminal Court.
Finally, I do not wish to be associated with a scientifically ignorant organisation that has lost its ability to practice evidence based medicine, has banned open debate, censors its doctors, allows politicians to decide how best to treat patients, has abandoned the principal of informed consent and, worst of all, has broken its promise to first do no harm. I hold you in the utmost contempt as do many New Zealanders. I shall see you on the other side of history. My conscience will be clear but may God have mercy on you”.

Pushback Against Unnecessary, Ill-Advised, and Unlawful Mandates of Investigational Vaccines
Since the wave of public and private entity COVID-19 vaccine mandates this summer, there has been progressively stiffer resistance from a public that knows the mandates are unethical, immoral, and from a civil perspective—illegal. Because none of the COVID-19 vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna, JNJ) are FDA approved or commercially sold by vaccine manufacturers to the public, Americans know the consent forms indicate vaccination can only be voluntary and that the vaccine products do not have proven safety or efficacy.
Thus, the consent forms by themselves are a clear indicator that no entity can “mandate” participation in a clinical investigation or research. Rates of COVID-19 vaccination plummeted in April of 2021 when word got out that Americans were dying and becoming injured after the injection in large numbers. Analyses from Rose and McLachlan using the CDC VAERS system indicated that 50% of the deaths occurred within 48 hours, 80% within a week, and 86% of the time, there was no other explanation other than the vaccine must have triggered the death.
From that point forward, there was a series of perverted efforts to seduce vaccination, including free donuts, beer, million-dollar raffles, college scholarships, and most recently, a free fling in a European brothel. But sadly, for the purveyors of vaccines, reasonable people felt no tasty donut or even a quickie was worth their life at the end of a needle loaded with mRNA or adenoviral DNA coding for the Wuhan Spike protein.
The vaccine stakeholders became impatient over the summer as vaccine hesitancy appropriately grew with reports of vaccine failures in large numbers of patients resulting in hospitalization and death and clear signals that the vaccines lost their protection after a short six months.The result of these events was vaccine mandates.
Students bore the brunt of the first wave of mandates after a few semesters of online classes; students were ready to return to campus but not at the risk of organ system injury or worse after unnecessary COVID-19 vaccination.There was pushback and even embarrassing outbreaks of COVID-19 among vaccinated students at Duke University that reminded the public again that the vaccines don’t work well enough to mandate.
But the continued coercion picked up steam with employment. At first, they came from private companies such as health systems which had profited richly from COVID-19 hospitalizations over 2020 and 2021. There were no major US hospital outbreaks of COVID-19 due to good airflow standards and the use of reasonable contagion control methods. Yet, health systems proudly announced COVID-19 vaccine mandates and had no concerns about firing the same workers who risked their lives as frontline workers caring for patients with COVID-19, many of whom who could not benefit from a vaccine since they were naturally immune after COVID-19 recovery.
Finally, with President Biden, OSHA, an entire wave of mandates came together that indeed pleased the vaccine stakeholders thirsting to achieve their lofty goal of “a needle in every arm” no matter how unwanted, unsafe, or ineffective the vaccines had become. The COVID-19 public vaccine program had become the epitome of forcing a failure on failure to its complete end on a public who had no desire to have repeated injections that were clearly not up to acceptable standards. Thus court filings, appeals, overturns, more filings have challenged a legal system that has become vaccine-corrupt under its own pressures to become vaccinated. With the suspension of jury trials, a hearing before a group of peers is no longer part of our legal process, and as a result, “fairness” has been lost.
On this week’s Report, we will update the status of vaccine mandates and hear from pediatrician Steve Kebe, MD, who weighs in on COVID-19 in children and the dangers of ill-advised vaccination of this group, which is now largely immune, not proven to be any public health threat, and in whom the risks far outweigh the benefits of participating in vaccine research.

It’s worse. Data is starting to emerge that excess mortality is on the rise in the vaccinated under 60’s.
If that is correct it means that overall the vaccine is killing some people that would’ve survived COVID. As for jabbing healthy children who are at zero risk from COVID, I can find no other words than evil on a par with Josef Mengele.

Europe is not one country. News from today The Basque High Court does not authorize nightlife venues and restaurants to allow for customers to show proof of vaccination. ie No passports to be used. The court said that this measure would limit fundamental rights of the segment of the population that is most immunized, since 90% of those over 12 years of age have been vaccinated in Spain. The Basque Government has confirmed that it will no longer use passports.Some other regions do use the passport in various way

Thanks for all your efforts, Toby. Not only do your writings reach a significant audience at publications like The Mail, you created this site, which now reaches millions of people around the world every week.
Plus, all of us who make comments in the Comments Section get to reach a lot of people. So all of the links we have provided reach more people than they would have otherwise.
I think the best and easiest thing any of us can do to fight this madness is to steer more friends and acquaintances to The Daily Skeptic.
Good effort and correct on tbe overestimation/underinformation ofvthe vaxxed.
But in truth, the reality is much simpler and darker:
Mass psychology meets identity politics, kling empathy and reason among the majority of the vaxxed.
The only question now left is: will it culminate in mass murder committed by them or not?
While the MSM condemns the use of ivermectin, the most populated state in India just declared they are officially COVID free after promoting widespread use of the safe, proven medicine. In addition to this, Ivermectin attaches to covid spikes and prevents them from binding to ACE2. Get your Ivermectin today while you still can! https://ivmpharmacy.com
It’s a Rubicon.
On one bank are Mengele and fascism.
On the other is (with all its imperfections) the democratic heritage.
No ‘if’s’ no ‘but’s’
Choose your bank, and know that those who accede to evil are evil.
It’s already begun in Australia.
Aboriginal people are being rounded up for camps. Yet most citizens still wear their suppression rags and ‘rationalise’…
If you have a negative lateral flow test the chance that you are infectious is close to zero. Vaccination status does not determine whether you have the virus, transmissible or otherwise, so is irrelevant. I see much sense in having a lateral flow test passport, which you have if you enter your test result on the NHS app. Of course people will cheat whatever you try and make them do.
Trouble is, the tests are integral to the tyranny.
Spoke to a friend yesterday – double jabbed, just completing 10 days isolation having got Covid, wasn’t very poorly she said, just like having a cold. Her main concern was that it meant, on medical advice, she has to delay getting her booster.
There’s no getting through to these people.
Efficacy of the “vaccine” in reducing serious illness and death has to be proven. It will take alot to convince me at this stage with the barrage of lies we’ve been subjected to…
Indeed. I had a slightly more cheerful encounter yesterday – speaking to a practice nurse on the ‘phone, I was asked about ‘vaccine status’, an whether I wanted one :
“No. Wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole – I’ve done the numbers”
O.K. – I’ll just note it so you won’t be asked again. It’s a matter of personal choice”
Goodness – lucky you!
A lot of people have talked about arranging meet-ups with other sceptics and here is the ideal opportunity and at the governments expense too!
I’ll see you in the exercise yard (if there is one).
PS anyone got any experience of tunnelling or stunt motorbike riding?
documentary about Great Escape on telly tonight – might be worth watching for tips.
Don’t expect an exercise yard Old Bill – peloton bike in cell might be more the thing these days
It is of greater concern that scientists are remaining silent. Niemöller warned of the price of silence :and how terrifying that at the anniversary of Kristallnacht in 1938 which saw a subset of the population blamed for the ills of society in that same part of the world (Austria/Germany) history is repeating itself with the vilification of the unvaccinated. If you have had Covid19: what kind of scientific nonsense leads scientists to demand that person has an mRNA vaccine? How many doses 1,2,3 or more? Of course it is stupid to demand vaccination in this group.
It is the silence of the science to argue against political rhetoric of masks, lockdowns and universal vaccination without antibody testing,which is of greater concern.
Perhaps at Christmas we should await the arrival of 3 Wise men but there is no sign of them yet?
Currently, according to the Government, the vast majority of people being admitted to hospital with/of Covid, and dying of said Covid……..are over 65. Within that cohort it’s worse in the over 75s, and within that cohort it’s worse in the over 85s. I suspect the vast majority of these have been vaccinated.
So is the vaccine effective at all, I can’t say for sure but it’s not saving the very people who it should is it?
Under the age of 65 you have a very, very, small chance of being very Ill or dying from Covid, obviously the odds get better the younger you are, so vaccine efficacy is a bit irrelevant in this age group surely, and just muddies the water in relation to the ones who are at high risk and who still seem to be dying vax or no vax.

The Bolshevik war against the ‘unvaccinated’ is becoming more sinister by the day, yet most people don’t care as it doesn’t affect them. The media propaganda outlets ramp the hatred up yet no one calls it out, including this site.
Not quite sure why the jabbed are so smug, once they have finished us off, they will find the next group to turn on. The ram raiding of a Christmas parade (for racial reasons) completely ignored by the MSM, shows what group the media will turn on next – and good riddance to them because they have turned on us.
