News Round-Up

by Will Jones
10 August 2022 12:34 AM

  • “Jacinda Ardern under pressure as approval rating slumps to record low” – Support for the Government led by the New Zealand Prime Minister falls, as the economy battles to recover from her strict lockdowns, the Telegraph reports.
  • “Denmark ends Covid vaccinations for anyone 18 or younger” – Alex Berenson says the announcement is both a statement of the reality that healthy kids are at essentially zero risk from Covid and a vote of no confidence in the long-term risk-benefit profile of the mRNA jabs.
  • “Why it’s Time to Investigate Excess Deaths in England and Wales” – Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson call for causal investigations of the sustained rise in deaths based on signals in the data.
  • “Warning as brand new virus is detected in 35 people in China” – A new and potentially nasty virus that may have been passed on from a shrew has been spotted in 35 people in China, reports the Mail.
  • “413 German Physicians, Healthcare Workers, Call For Immediate Vaccine Suspension… ‘Serious Side Effects…Consequential Damage’” – Pierre Gosselin on the No Tricks Zone reports that Germany’s Hauke publishing house has published an open letter from 413 physicians, addressed to the Prime Minister of the German state of Thuringia, harshly criticising the Government’s Covid policy and calling for the immediate suspension of Covid vaccinations due to “serious side effects and consequential damage”.
  • “Confessions of an Epidemiologist” – Dr. Roger Watson in the European Conservative reviews Mark Woolhouse’s book and says that we witnessed a prolonged curtailment of freedom of movement, freedom of association and freedom of speech, yet Woolhouse does not address this; in fact, while he clearly comes out as lockdown sceptical, it is not entirely clear why.
  • “Baileys’ Quoque” – Dr. Roger Watson in Country Squire on the errors of the virus deniers.
  • “The not so transparent story of see-through masks” – Paul Stevens on Time for Recovery reports on research carried out by Smile Free which suggests the Scottish Government spent around £5m of taxpayer money on transparent masks that were not only ineffective but not recommended for use in most situations.
  • “Masks in the Working Environment: What does the law say?”” – A free webinar from Smile Free and Together on your rights if an employer asks or ‘requires’ you to wear a ‘Covid mask’ at work.
  • “Widerspruch macht frei!” – Thorsteinn Siglaugsson notes the inconsistent ideas emanating from German Health Minister Karl Lauterbach as regards vaccination and restrictions and wryly observes that “contradiction makes us free”.
  • “The Cult That Took My Michael” – A mother on Brownstone relays the terrible impact of lockdown on her teenage son: “Classes were conducted on Zoom, then later, two days per week in person, masked, and the other days on the computer. When school resumed in person, five days per week, students were masked and prohibited from sitting together at lunch and socialising normally. Fear infused every aspect of school.”
  • “Physician Scared for Much of the Pandemic to Speak up About Vaccines: Now a Full-Blown Activist” – Trial Site News reports on Australian doctor William Bay who despite keeping his head down for much of the pandemic, recently emerged as an outspoken critic of the risks of the COVID-19 vaccines.
  • “The Tories must abandon this vanity contest and act now on energy prices” – Allison Pearson in the Telegraph says it’s time to take a serious look at what is making energy so expensive and change it.
  • “How China Dominates the World’s Solar PV Supply” – Paul Homewood in WUWT on a new report from the IEA that shows just how much China dominates the solar power industry.
  • “Will Europe Force a Facebook Blackout?” – Wired reports that regulators are close to stopping Meta from sending EU data to the U.S., bringing a years-long privacy battle to a head.
  • “Entertainment Companies Start Dumping Woke Content As Viewership Tumbles” – The examples of purged woke programming go on and on as audiences make it clear with their money and their viewership that they don’t want to watch Leftist garbage, writes Tyler Durden on ZeroHedge.
  • “‘Women’ and ‘girls’ left out of NHS-backed periods guidance website” – Bloody Brilliant, created on behalf of NHS Wales, has been criticised for giving advice using gender-neutral terms such as “people who bleed”, the Telegraph reports.
  • “A conspiracy of silence about the impact of mass migration has cost Britain dear” – Philip Johnston in the Telegraph marks the 20th anniversary of Migration Watch and says failure to plan for the extra millions of people coming to Britain is behind many of our current woes.
  • “The crisis at the heart of the Conservative party” – John Oxley in the Spectator says the Tories don’t know what they stand for: “A Government which claimed to be hard-line on immigration did nothing to reduce it. A Government that seeks to be tough on crime has seen petty crime become almost legal. A Government that complains about ‘woke-culture’ has done nothing at a legislative level to prevent it.”
  • “Wickes and the perils of corporate virtue-signalling” – Kate Harris in Spiked says the brief window when sponsoring Pride was a no-brainer for socially responsible organisations has now closed as the movement has been hijacked by gender ideologues.
  • “The bloody truth about the Benin bronzes” – Robert Tombs in Spiked asks why Britain is making reparations to the heirs of slave owners.
