News Round-Up

News Round Up

  • “Virtual GP appointments are a form of ‘digital exclusion’, NHS chiefs admit” – Health bosses warn the NHS has not yet found the “right balance” between online and in-person care after the pandemic, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Some primary school pupils unable to say their names, teachers report” – Children are arriving at school unable to say their own names or drink from cups, the Times Education Commission’s final report will reveal this week.
  • “Beijing launches massive new coronavirus crackdown” – The outbreak of nearly 200 cases linked to Beijing’s Heaven Supermarket Bar, which reopened last week, shows the challenge facing China to maintain its ‘Zero-Covid’ policy, reports the Mail.
  • “Yet more ‘vaccine success’” – If this is vaccine success, what would vaccine failure look like, asks Ramesh Thakur in Spectator Australia.
  • “COVID-19 and the Will to Power” – At every turn, the story of the world’s response to Covid is the story of power, says Michael Senger on his Substack page – the perception of it, the exercise of it, the fear of it, the abuse of it, and the pathological lengths to which some will go to obtain it.
  • “Don’t be complacent, another Covid wave is coming. Here’s how we can manage it” – Professor Devi Sridhar writing in the Guardian has come a long way from her Zero Covid fanaticism and is now positioning herself as a champion of ‘living with Covid’, even rejecting the use of face masks.
  • “The Economic Meltdown Has Roots in Lockdown” – It was not the poor, the working classes, or the person on the street who did this. These policies were not an act of nature. They were imposed by men and women with unchecked administrative power under the mistaken belief that they had it all under control, writes Jeffrey Tucker at Brownstone. 
  • “The Nine Great Covid Mysteries” – The latest insights from the Swiss Doctor, including on virus origins and the Nordic paradox.
  • “Vox: Stop telling kids that climate change will destroy their world” – Eric Worrall in Watts Up With That? on Vox contributor Kelsey Piper describing her realisation that climate anxiety is a far worse threat to the welfare of kids than climate change.
  • “When the Islamists came for Cineworld” – Luke Perry in Bournbrook writes that we are a nation that has already cut itself into tiny little pieces and a common culture and ideal is nowhere to be found.
  • “The Rwanda policy: who runs this country?” – Brendan O’Neill writes for Spiked that the revolt against the Government’s immigration policy (which he personally thinks is misguided) is alarmingly anti-democratic.
  • “Church of England’s senior leaders slam Home Office’s Rwanda plan” – The Mail reports that the increasingly outspoken church leaders, including Archbishop Justin Welby, slammed the Home Office’s Rwanda proposals despite judges ruling the first flights to Kigali can go ahead.
  • “The Good White Man Roster” – Freddie deBoer with a database of “progressive white men who are thirsty for credit”.
  • “Film bans are less about offence, more ‘community leaders’ showing who’s boss” – Pulling The Lady of Heaven from cinemas is a win for self-appointed gatekeepers of Islam, writes Kenan Malik in the Guardian.
  • “James Patterson says alleged job struggles for white men is ‘another form of racism’” – The Independent reports that the author has drawn criticism from the woke crowd for saying it’s racist that it is harder for white men like him to get “writing gigs”.
  • “The kids aren’t alright” – Adults shouldn’t be misled by ‘child-led’ fads to capitulate to teen ideology, writes Hadley Freeman in UnHerd.
  • “We need to stop importing America’s racial mania” – There is nothing just or sane about ‘reckoning’ with historical ills we had nothing to do with, argues Simon Evans in Spiked.
  • “Buried in the Online Safety Bill is a new offence. If you say something intended to cause someone ‘extreme psychological distress’ and you don’t have a reason for doing so, you can be jailed for two years” – Watch Toby in conversation with Free Speech Nation host Andrew Doyle.

Buried in the #onlinesafetybill is a new offence. If you say something intended to cause someone 'extreme psychological distress' and you don’t have a reason for doing so, you can be jailed for two years.
