News Round-Up

by Will Jones
2 March 2022 12:23 AM

  • “Children’s ‘long Covid’ symptoms may not have been caused by virus” – An Office for National Statistics report showed just 1% of primary school children in England ‘met all the criteria’ for long Covid between March 2020 and December 2021, reports the Mail.
  • “Lateral flow tests do not cost Government £2bn a month and should be kept” – Free lateral flow tests are a tiny fraction of the U.K.’s £2 billion per month free testing bill and should be kept to curb Covid spread to the vulnerable SAGE scientist Professor John Edmunds told MPs, according to the Mail.
  • “Santander warns of fake NHS Covid scam” – Britons are being scammed out of £5,600 on average, with one couple transferring more than £20,000 after fraudsters send the victims a link to a fake NHS website to order a PCR test, according to the Mail.
  • “Why is Putin such a Covid bedwetter?” – For over 25 years he’s projected the image of a bare-chested, macho hardman. Yet now he looks like a neurotic wimp, says Michael Deacon in the Telegraph.
  • “Andreas Schöfbeck, German insurance executive who warned of the high vaccine side-effect rate revealed by billing data, has been fired” – His termination appears timed to prevent his participation in a meeting today with German vaccine regulators, according to Eugyppius.
  • “HTL interview with Chris Green MP, who says mainstream news ‘failed’ on Covid reporting” – In a hard-hitting interview with Holding the Line, a U.K. MP is calling out tech giants and mainstream news for failing to provide balanced debate on Covid and lockdowns.
  • “Jeffrey Tucker Interviews Roger Hodkinson” – Watch the Brownstone interview with the Pathologist, Clinical Researcher and Medical Director of Virology and Medical Research Laboratories, who found himself embedded with the trucker convoy as it made its way to Ottawa.
  • “COVID-19 lockdowns failed: Fauci and whole lockdown crew blame public for ‘not following rules sufficiently’” – “Now as their Covid narrative crumbles before their eyes, the near-term PR goal of [Dr. Anthony Fauci] and the whole lockdown crew is to convince you, Joe Public, that their murderous Covid lockdowns and vax mandates all just sort of happened so fast in the fog of war,” writes Ben Bartree according to Patriot Rising.
  • “Japan’s Covid light touch worked better than Australia’s tyranny” – Japan’s Covid light touch worked better than Australia’s tyranny, argues Harry Dougherty in TCW Defending Freedom.
  • “Medics should be allowed to work-from-home as 999 handlers once a week, MPs told” – Nicola McQueen, Chief Executive of NHS Professionals – which provides temporary staff to the health service – said plans were urgently needed to protect the “burnt-out workforce”, the Mail reports.
  • “Cryptocurrencies are Putin’s sanctions-busting superweapon” – Despots will find it easier to get their way in a world where cryptocurrencies undermine the U.S. dollar, according to Ben Wright in the Telegraph.
  • “Teacher suspended for showing class picture of Osama bin Laden as the Prophet Mohammed” – All Saints Academy in Bedfordshire has vowed a “swift investigation” over the “totally inappropriate images” shown during an RE lesson, reports the Telegraph.
  • “What a picture of bin Laden reveals about free speech in schools” – A foreboding air of déjà vu surrounds the suspension of a teacher from a Bedfordshire school this week, writes Joanna Rossiter in the Spectator.
  • “Matt Hancock’s claim ‘he fell in love’ is hilariously re-cut to music” – The former Health Secretary’s appearance on The Diary of a CEO podcast earlier this week has gone down a storm with social media users left equal parts horrified and in tears of laughter, according to the Mail.
  • “I’m keen that someone more tech-able than me puts the music to Simon Bates Our Tune under this” – Twitter has a lot of fun at Matt Hancock’s expense.
