News Round-Up

  • “Unvaccinated Novak Djokovic will not play the U.S. Open after tournament confirmed it will follow U.S. Government advice and not admit citizens who have not had their shot” – The Mail reports that Novak Djokovic will not play in the U.S. Open due to his declining the COVID-19 vaccine.
  • “The heatwave shows the lockdown instinct is still alive” – What will happen next, asks the Spectator in a leading article. “Extreme gales? A bad flu season? We cannot live in a world where almost anything that might make life slightly uncomfortable is enough to trigger ‘work from home’ recommendations and the withdrawal of public services.”
  • “Matt Pottinger: The Intelligence Agent Who Shut Down America” – Michael Senger on the White House’s leading Covid alarmist and lockdown proponent in early 2020 and his connections to China.
  • “We need to talk about Australia” – Alex Berenson says Australia’s Covid success story has a new ending – and it may hold very hard lessons for vaccine advocates.
  • “Allow Djokovic to play in U.S. Open 2022” – Sign the change.org petition.
  • “The Case Against the Physician Gag Order” – Aaron Kheriaty writes for Brownstone that advances in science and medicine typically occur when doctors and scientists challenge conventional thinking or settled opinion, whereas fixing any current medical consensus as “unassailable” stifles medical and scientific progress.
  • “Urgent Monkeypox Alert: Some New York City health officials now wondering whether they should be ‘encouraging gay men to temporarily change their behavior’” – Eugyppius is intrigued by why some kinds of social distancing seem to remain off the table even among lockdown zealots.
  • “The Man With the Mask” – Thorsteinn Siglaugsson on the insanity of those who wear masks when outside alone.
  • “Unvaccinated, review: painfully patronising documentary treated vaccine sceptics as idiots” – The BBC set out to prove wrong rather than fairly represent the views of Britain’s 4m unvaccinated adults, says Anita Singh in the Telegraph.
  • “The Control Group” – A movement of unvaccinated people providing data on vaccine safety and efficacy.
  • “Depression ‘is not caused by low serotonin levels’, study” – The Mail reports that University College London experts say a review of data has uncovered “no evidence” depression is caused by low serotonin levels but other experts say the widely used drugs still work.
  • “Fact check: Is Sadiq Khan right about fires?” – We need to distinguish between the trauma of heatwave and long-term trends, says Michael Simmons in the Spectator. “Fires are trending down, in spite of temperature trending up – not quite the impression that Khan gave.”
  • “Never mind the facts, just worship the models” – Melanie Phillips says the heatwaves have smashed records for stupidity, credulousness and ignorance.
  • “Biden to declare climate emergency? Ban offshore drilling?” – It took less than two years to go from American Energy Dominance to American Energy Impotence, says David Middleton in WUWT.
  • “Victoria’s Green Zealots Banned Gas Fracking – Now Running Out of Gas” – Joined up thinking is not running strong in the Australian People’s Republic of Victoria, says Eric Worrall in WUWT.
  • “Climate preaching is no way to win over converts” – Joanna Williams writes in the Times that being lectured on what to think as well as hectored on how to behave is unlikely to win converts.
  • “Soft-launch for climate lockdown” – Alexander Adams writes for Bournbrook that “the Government and its medical-environmental partners use fear and coddling to direct a compliant population away from free choice and towards authoritarianism”.
  • “Police move in to seize M25 protesters as road chaos continues after nine hours: Just Stop Oil eco activists are hauled away by specialist climbing officers after they blocked three locations on motorway causing nine-mile tailbacks” – In a statement, the group said it was “declaring the M25 a site of civil resistance” and asked that “no one travels on this motorway from Wednesday to Friday”, reports the Mail.
  • “Drag Queen banned by National Theatre after explicit joke on children” – The Mail reports that Ms. Sharon Le Grand told a South London audience: “We need to teach our children to open their hearts, teach our children to open their minds… and to teach our children to open their legs.”
  • “Netflix’s slump continues: Giant loses one million subscribers” – Netflix shares remain at historic lows after the U.S. streaming giant announced it had shed nearly one million subscribers during the spring, which critics put down to its woke content, the Mail reports.
  • “Why the public reject trans ideology” – New polling shows that campaigners are undermining themselves, writes Debbie Hayton in UnHerd.
  • “Stop calling them ‘Asian’ grooming gangs” – This is just another way of obscuring the truth about the ethnicity of most of the perpetrators, says Hardeep Singh in Spiked.
  • “Now Quidditch ditches JK Rowling! Sport inspired by Harry Potter series will be renamed ‘Quadball’ to distance itself from author over her trans views” – Quidditch, the sport inspired by the wizarding game in the ‘Harry Potter’ books, will now be known as Quadball, according to the Mail.
  • “Labour has always had a woman problem, but now it has a race one too” – The hypocrisy of a party that lectures the rest of us on diversity, inclusivity and equality has been made clear by the Tory leadership race, says Michael Deacon in the Telegraph.
  • “The Online Safety Bill won’t survive the Tory contest” – Isabel Hardman in the Spectator with a rundown of what the leadership candidates have said and why it means the bill is likely to be overhauled.
