News Round-Up

by Will Jones
5 July 2022 12:55 AM

  • “Thousands of firms are struggling to hire staff writes” – Ruth Sutherland writes for the Mail that the ranks of the ‘economically inactive’ – those of working age who are not gainfully employed – have surged since Covid, with many of them having signed off sick.
  • “British Airways cancelling July flights for 105,000 holidaymakers” – Britain’s biggest airline is to axe more than 650 flights from Heathrow and Gatwick in order to avoid repeat of last month’s travel chaos, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Our latest polls show twice as many people died from the vaccine as from Covid” – Steve Kirsch reports the results of a second poll of 500 Americans (a representative sample), which, like the first, found reported Covid vaccine deaths to be twice as high as reported Covid deaths. Between the two, 83 out of 1,000 or 8.3% of households reported a vaccine death and 41 out of 1,000 or 4.1% reported a Covid death. (The first found 45 vaccine vs 23 Covid and the second found 38 vaccine vs 18 Covid.)
  • “How Novak Djokovic could compete at the 2023 Australian Open” – Novak Djokovic could be in line to compete at the Australian Open next year, despite being banned from applying for a visa to enter Australia for three years in January 2022 over his COVID-19 status, the Mail reports.
  • “Big Tech isn’t Woke. It’s Totalitarian” – Michael Senger says that Big Tech platforms openly collude with governments to suppress the speech of their own people, crafting the false illusion of consensus on political issues of their own choosing.
  • “Covid leaked from an American lab and not the notorious Chinese facility at centre of pandemic cover-up, claims top U.S. professor described as ‘Xi propagandist’” – Covid was manufactured in a laboratory in America rather than China, claims U.S. economist Professor Jeffrey Sachs, who according to the Mail has form in repeating the Beijing line.
  • “Brown’s Covid Vaccine-Injured Tell-Tale Heart?” – Dr. Andrew Bostom writes that in March 2021, two months before enacting its mandatory COVID-19 vaccination campaign, a healthy 20 year-old male Brown University student was apparently hospitalised for Covid vaccine-induced myopericarditis, but the university never disclosed this hospitalisation at the time.
  • “The Covid Pass – Europe’s new Iron Curtain” – Dr. Niall McCrae writes for TCW Defending Freedom that anyone who thought that ‘living with Covid’ meant going back to normal should have learned by now that the authorities want it to stay for ever. 
  • “COVID-19 Boosters and Rising Excess Mortality in New Zealand” – Professor John Gibson at the New Zealand Centre for Economic Research reports on worrying mortality data from the country.
  • “This unfolding worldwide vaccine disaster” – Neville Hodgkinson in TCW Defending Freedom says it is surely time for us all to awaken to this unfolding public health disaster.
  • “Shock Survey: A Quarter of Young Europeans Don’t Worry About Anthropogenic Climate Change” – Generational teenage rebellion may finally be kicking in for climate change, writes Eric Worrall in Watts Up With That?
  • “Fury as £1.36 million-a-year BBC pundit Gary Lineker sides with Just Stop Oil eco zealots after they stormed Silverstone in protest at British Grand Prix – and claims there is ‘way more risk of death from climate change’ than their dangerous stunt” – Martin Brundle, a former F1 driver and now a commentator with Sky Sports F1, quickly took issue with Gary Lineker lending his support to the protestors to his 8.5 million followers, reports the Mail.
  • “Approve a mini nuclear reactor or delay green revolution, Johnson told” – Rolls-Royce warns it will miss the target to deploy the technology unless the Government acts fast, according to the Telegraph.
  • “The unravelling of Germany’s green agenda” – Its botched transition to green energy is a warning to the world, says Sabine Beppler-Spahl in Spiked.
  • “Woke Guardian U.S. news reporter is blasted over Twitter declaration that anyone who questions transgender ideology is a fascist” – One of the Guardian‘s U.S. reporters, Julia Carrie Wong, tweeted how she believes people who question ‘trans ideology’ are fascists, according to the Mail.
  • “Jordan Peterson suspended from Twitter for ‘hateful conduct’ towards Elliot Page” – The Canadian psychologist refused to delete the tweet criticising the surgeon who remodelled the actress’s body, according to the Metro.
  • “Sex education is becoming far too extreme” – MP Miriam Cates writes in the Telegraph that parents across the country have written to her to share their anguish over what their children are being exposed to in the classroom.
  • “Nadine Dorries ‘will have power to censor the internet’” – The Culture Secretary will be able to direct decisions by Ofcom under the Online Safety Bill, reports the Telegraph. What could go wrong?
  • “Online platforms could have ‘legal obligation’ to fight state disinformation as part of amendment to Online Safety Bill” – City A.M. reports that online platforms will have the legal obligation to take “proactive, preventative action” against any state-sponsored disinformation. Which I’m sure will be used entirely impartially against governments whether Right or Left…
  • “‘Doctors shouldn’t call out Mr or Mrs in the waiting room’” – A London-based conference to make GP practices more ‘inclusive’ also recommended getting GPs and staff to wear pronoun labels so patients ‘feel at ease’, the Mail reports.
  • “Residents will be given powers to vote down ‘woke’ new street names” – Michael Gove is spearheading the new ‘street votes’ law to give residents greater say on housing developments and other proposed changes, reports the Telegraph.
  • “The One With The Nauseating White Guilt” – Marta Kauffman’s showy white shame is far more offensive than Friends’ white cast, says Brendan O’Neill in Spiked.
  • “Architects and academics accuse UCL of instigating Bartlett ‘witch-hunt’” – Dezeen reports that architects and academics have criticised UCL for releasing a report into bullying, harassment, racism and sexual misconduct at the London institution written by legal consultancy Howlett Brown.
  • “Young people gather in London for conference promoting freedom of speech and tolerance” – More than 60 young people and students from across the U.K. met in London for the annual Living Freedom conference, reports GB News.
  • “The myth of ‘artificial intelligence’” – Andrew Orlowski says that alongside wokeness, there are two other modern manias that have a distinctly religious quality: environmentalism and artificial intelligence (AI). He forgot pandemia!
  • “Andy Rootsey and the superb Hannah Thomas of 2 Hare Court have secured another Not Guilty verdict for Human Rights campaigner Debbie Hicks” – This is the second acquittal obtained in a series of three trials Debbie has faced for protesting during periods of U.K. lockdown.
