Profanity and abuse will be removed and may lead to a permanent ban.
Yes. “Broken skin” and “prolonged physical contact”.
Surely there can’t be any large scale lockdowns for this (though the fact that the question is being asks suggests that maybe things have changed permanently – at least as far as the WHO tyrants are concerned)?
I wonder if we are not being pushed to fight on too many fronts at once.
We’re facing a full-scale assault on the lives and liberties of the overwhelming majority of people on this planet. And we’re the ones being overwhelmed.
Over the last couple of decades, we’ve been hit from every direction: kept frightened, anxious and/or angry. The war on terrorism that was declared back in 2001 has turned out to be a war of terrorism: on us.
In no particular order:
There’s more, but that’s as much as I could bear to post.
How do we fight against all that? How do we forge alliances, when divisions are constantly being created?
Perhaps crusading, active scepticism is the main front, and annoying questions are the principal weapons: Who says? How do you know? What about (yes – that, too)?
Whataboutery?
” ‘Where shall I find courage?… That is what I chiefly need.’
‘courage is found in unlikely places’ ” (Tolkien).
“Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up all those things -trees and grass and sun and moon and Aslan himself… Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world which licks your real world hollow.” (C.S. Lewis, The Silver Chair).
To borrow a phrase, hold fast that which is good. No matter what lies they tell you, never lose sight of reality. No matter who tells you the lies, never be afraid to tell them that their reality is so much rubbish.
One of our people, a prophet of our times, shared with his prayer group a word of knowledge (prophecy) that he had received. This was on the 10th of September 2001. The word was: “God is going to do a new thing”. So it turned out. The events of the next day marked a decisive turning point in history. For those of us who believe, the things that have happened since have happened by God’s will (i.e. He has allowed them to happen for His own purposes). Tolkien again: “It is not for them to decide {the times they live in] All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us”. Courage, pilgrim.
Enjoy the platinum jubilee (or minister for republic, or whatever people are doing in Oz. You can always enjoy that kanga-fight…).
‘He has allowed them to happen for His own purposes)’
People often forget that God is in complete control of Satan/evil and that God directs Satan to inflict all manner of misery and evil on humanity for reasons that are his own. God seems to delight in all sorts of evil, sometimes he kills and wounds simply for the fun of a bet as described in the book of Job.
The term “Whataboutery” invalidates a perfectly legitimate question, which can often be used to expose hypocrisy!
And it would all stop if we all ignored whatever government said.
And when you assess each of your bullet points, you’ll see they all come to the same conclusion: isolation of the individual and relieving the individual of any influence or empowerment.
Point 1 – the green agenda; this will stop us from travelling further than our immediate area.
Point 2 – deadly diseases; lockdown/restrictions from socialising. The latest monkey pox scam will seek to stop people from having sex – we could well see Orwell’s Anti-sex League being mobilised to stop procreation.
Point 3 – censorship; the new ‘online safety bill’ will separate us from the truth about the tyrants. It will stop us from communicating with one-another openly and honestly. This will force us to isolate for fear of being reprimanded and being further ostracised.
Point 4 – LGBT; the ‘Trans-human’ theory which seeks to de-humanise us and divide us into small labels. MK Ultra mind-games in movies, computer games, TV shows have been for years pushing us to devalue life, promoted hatred and normalised violence – always towards white people.
As you say; there’s more – much more, but we start to get tangled in all the tentacles of this evil.
Agreed AE – been saying this for some time on here. It is exhausting, hard to follow and keep up with, and seems to me to be a deliberate distraction tactic on part of TPTB to make people spread themselves so thinly they cannot keep up with checking all the falsehoods and so just give up and surrender to the narrative.
Perhaps we should organise into battalions – squadrons just responsible for discrete areas, some on climate, some on Ukraine, some on economy, some on WEF, some on Convid etc etc
Nice idea Milo. Indeed much of what is being thrown at us is exhausting but I will never “surrender to the narrative.”
I find I have to let some things go through to the keeper.
On climate, for instance, I just assume (on the basis of experience) that I’m being told alarmist bullshit.
I don’t campaign actively on the subject, because I don’t do the proper fact-checking myself.
I’m very grateful to the people here and elsewhere who do expose the errors systematically; and when I get the time, I’ll get myself up to speed.
In the meantime, I do enjoy asking, “Are you sure that poor people won’t end up paying the price for all this?”
It sends them off on a tangent that suits me and irritates them. They can’t really say, “We don’t care about poor people”; even if (in fact) they don’t.
a deliberate distraction tactic on part of TPTB to make people spread themselves so thinly they cannot keep up with checking all the falsehoods and so just give up and surrender to the narrative.
It’s actually a standard pattern of tyrants.
Most people find it safer and easier to surrender to it all, hoping that it won’t affect them too badly and that it will just go away in the end.
Those who resist are exhausted by the number of battles they are forced to wage.
I ask again, why have Labour collaborated in ruining “our” NHS (or their NHS as they think of it)?
Labour, conservatives, lib Dems are all different groups working for the same employer.
Lib Dems did at least oppose the “vaccine” mandates. Not much else any of them did right though.
The opposition parties often declare themselves to support an opposition view in order to help maintain the illusion of democracy, but when in power their oppositional views normally vanish in a puff of smoke.
See the LibDems and their oppositon to University fees that morphed into support for maximum fees when in power.
That was a conjuring trick to kid the electorate.
LibDems love telling people what to do.
Labour is a branch office of the mafia that controls government. Labour loves controlling people, so they won’t abolish a single one of the petty restrictions on people’s lives. It is in their DNA to add more and then add more after that.
Labour are just another brand of toxicity.
The Labour Party are toxicity on steroids.
It seems that for many jobs now one has to have a smart phone and an up to date passport. And if you want to qualify for a driving job, you need to wait many months to obtain the appropriate licence. And as the world faces a food crisis, it beggars belief that farmers are still being paid not to farm land. The whole thing is an utter shambles, caused by the shambles of the last two years. And the Labour party has collaborated in creating conditions that work against people labouring. Is there any political party left with a modicum of sense (and a chance of getting anywhere)? I suppose there are always independents, and a few exceptions within the main parties…
The controlled demolition of the free world.
I saw a report, maybe from 2019, from Germany and the trouble trades have to recruit. The school leavers of today do not want to do physical work, get their hands dirty or start work earlier than 9am.
There is no “shambles” in paying farmers not to produce food it is quite deliberate.
Charlie Windsor has visions of turning this country into a sort of slow-mo Constable painting where HIS peasantry take HIS farm products to market in their 3mph ramshackle EV’s and doffing their sustainably sourced woollen caps to him and the rest of the “betters” along the way.
Bucolic in one direction alone. The peasantry return from market for a bowl of gruel while Charlie and his slapper dine on the finest organic produce that his slaves, whoops peasants have produced.
Ain’t life grand!
I think you forgot the part where this makes him a sort of secular saint, making up for the fact that people don’t actually like him.
Thanks AE. Quite correct.
You know, the idiots at the Guardian and elsewhere who were so dismissive of the late, great Christopher Booker’s warnings about future blackouts – and not least the great moonbat George Monbiot _ really do owe us an apology.
The arrogance of Western “decision-makers” is breathtaking.
The Russians are in a position to talk back – with effect.
Until we find a way to do so, we will be punished for their arrogance in damage done to our lives, while they continue to live like the gods they believe they are.
Don’t bet on ever getting one. Many in the media and politics are more stupid than you might think.
In his day as Energy Secretary, that is, before being outed as father of his secretary’s child, Cecil Parkinson, on a visit to CEGB National Control, asked:
‘When you’ve made all this electricity, where do you store it?’
The MoneyBot doesn’t apologise.
Computer modelling is not observational science.
Historical science is not observational science.
If there’s one positive thing that can come out of this shambles, I hope it is a greater awareness of the corruption and politicisation of science and misuse of data that has been a problem for many years. Too much of what is described by the usual suspects as science has, I’m afraid, been more akin to advanced fantasising, and in too many cases with catastrophic consequences as a cabal of self-interested people in politics, science and universities lay waste to the free world. It should be a legal requirement for politicians to take a holistic approach, it really should. The cast iron political law of unintended consequences…
When your model can’t accurately hindcast you know the model is crap, yet such models are routinely accepted as being able to predict the future.
Steve Baker is one of the exceptions, a politician who does actually understand basics of science.
But he is a member of the Tory party.
To become a candidate he had to tell the party of all the skeletons in his history. He then had to swear to do as he was told to by the party, or be outed as a whatever skeleton he had confessed to.
There are no rebels in the Tory party.
Steve Baker for PM
Seems to be one of the very few remaining prepared to call a lot of the rubbish being peddled out for the rubbish that it is. Points out the emperors new clothes.
Can anyone confirm if it is a “non-crime hate incident” to go after someone shouting “Tory scum”?
I’m afraid that this is something that has been done to young people for many years:
“Dr. Philip Ney has written extensively on Post Abortion Survivor Syndrome (PASS). His book “Deeply Damaged” discusses the extensive trauma experienced by surviving siblings, before and after they know that they are missing a brother or sister. These psychosomatic and neurotic tendencies can definitely result in a dysphoric or same sex attraction expression. Additionally, some studies have tracked a significant correlation between abortion and autism rates. Abortion is not good for the health protection of nation, and likewise leads to increased anti-social/criminal rates and decreasing labor rates especially among young men (See “Redeeming Economics” by John Mueller).”
Deeply Damaged: An Explanation for the Profound Problems Arising from Aborting Babies and Abusing Children: Amazon.co.uk: Ney, Dr. Philip Gordon: 9780920952108: Books
People like Frank Furedi (who is husband of the dreadful British Pregnancy Advisory Service spokesman Ann Furedi who apparently supports infanticide) need to acknowledge this.
Autism is much more to do with the neurotoxin aluminium than is in most vaccines than anything else.
Fixed that for you, Will.
More propaganda from Tedros, experts at SAGE, and Prof John Edmunds.
They’re involved with the Guardian as well aren’t they? And then there’s the CDC that is in bed with big pharma. Are there any newspapers that are untainted by these people? (Well, The Light of course, but you know what I mean). Whatever happened to anti-monopoly laws?
Simple answer to getting all the public sector workers, refusing to go back to the office, back to the office:
Turn the f*cking remote software off!
Change the firewall settings
Well, I’m no lover of slackness and inefficiency in either the public or private sector, but was the public sector super-efficient before covid and WFH? Surely addressing management and incentives and employment policies is what is needed. Getting people back to the office won’t solve fundamental issues in how organisations are run.
P45.
Good morning all, and what a beautiful morning it is. Happy diamond jubilee (even if she did advise us to get the monkey gunk (no, not those monkeys))!
Let the downticks begin (if they’re not having the day off for the anniversary (69 years since the coronation on 2nd June 1953))…
She has been about as much use as a chocolate tea pot.
She has never so much as lifted a finger to object to all the damage being done to the UK by the political dross (despite her coronation oath) on her watch and she has raised one of the most dysfunctional broods on planet earth.
Bloody woman is just a parasite living off the backs of the working class.
I think she works quite hard and I don’t think many could have stuck to the task as she has. Her wealth and its impact on the working class is IMO negligible compared to the huge amounts our governments waste on crap, especially recently.
She is meant to be apolitical, and largely has been, until her recent interventions in the vaccine and covid business, for which I cannot defend her.
Someone has to be head of state and whoever it is will be unsatisfactory in many ways. I’m not keen on her offspring – far too woke for my liking, but then that’s the modern world for you.
An interesting article delving into the history of the current branch of the Royal family, which suggests that they have a history of favouring issues which support their lifestyle & world view.
New Revelations Shed Light on Nazi Roots of House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha – the Canadian patriot
For me, her principle achievement is her work to try and make a success of the Commonwealth. Not many imperial powers have had such a good relationship with the nations who have become independent from them, and that was in no small part because she was determined that we should.
Give it a rest Hugh.
That’s more like it.
When can we do Ekaterinburg ll?
Brenda had only one job, and she failed at that.
All she had to do was protect, preserve and hand on our sovereignty to her successors. Heath asked for her assent to a bill giving it to Brussels, and she cheerfully gave her assent.
She is supposed to be a political genius, doing it for decades.
If she had told Heath “You are asking me to break my coronation oath. Take this bill back to the Commons and ask them publicly if that is what they really want me to do. If they tell me to do it then I will, but not before.”
If she had done that then Heath would have had to publicly admit his treachery, and we would not have been sucked into the Eauvpit.
Spot on.
‘Monkeypox virus is linked to gay bars and grindr with just two women catching the virus’
98% of Tory MPs are shitting bricks, those two women are probably Tory MP’s wives.
I’m surprised there are so many heterosexual Tory MPs.
Regarding masks in healthcare places, I believe the guidance HAS been withdrawn: [Withdrawn] New recommendations for primary and community health care providers in England – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
‘Climate change to blame for monkeypox outbreak’
Has the terrible heat caused the bummers to go at it even harder than usual thus causing the spread?
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Pointing your fingers and screeching at a minority group, for a virus that is nothing to be concerned about (especially if you haven’t had your immune system decimated) is exactly what TPTB want.
I think it is fitting that today, the start of the jubilee, we pay attention to the power structure of this country. People have been lead to believe the royals are a benign power who’s role is entirely ceremonial and they’re good value for money because of the tourism they bring.
I’m of the view the ceremony is ritualistic for an ancient masonic cult who most definitely do pull the strings of power in the UK and globally. The translation of corona is “crown”. Charles, as we know, is deeply involved in the Great Reset. See proof here.
The queen herself has become unusually vocal about the modern politics being waged against the people of this country. She’s promoted the green agenda during Cock26 and she has promoted the false narrative that it is selfish of people to refuse being jabbed by the clotshot. See proof here.
What’s the next generation up to? Well he’s shouldering establishment extremists such as David Attenborough and throwing tax payer money around to push the destruction of our society. See proof here.
Charles was great friends with Jimmy Savile.
I really don’t want someone as morally corrupt as that as our King.
He’s an absolute infantile, genocidal nutjob.
Bloody right.
Ekaterinburg ll please.

Since the peelers are still going to pursue this illegal and undemocratic action, the only thing I’d suggest is the equivalent of a DDoS attack on them. Find NCHI everywhere. Report everything. Especially utterances from politicians and celebs. See if we can swamp the system
“WHO insists Pride parades pose low monkeypox risk”
Using the infallible hux conversion modelling we can conclude that within a relatively short period this will be inverted and any gathering of two or more will lead to mass deaths on a scale not seen since the last Ferguson model.
Very predictable
