Apologies.
Good morning ellie. And fellow stout hearts.
Good morning, ellie, HP and fellow musketeers-in-arms.
Why is the Swiss Doctor denying any link between excess mortality and the Covid injections? Because I think their’s is the only place that I’m reading this. Many other experts are looking at the jabs as a possible cause of at least *some* of the excess we are seeing in various countries. And especially when we consider the now known impacts to cardiovascular health and the increase in ‘SADS’, with the well-documented increase in sports people dropping dead or with heart issues, this seems really strange that he/she is not considering a link. He/she would rather cite the CDC’s data and blame Covid deaths and drug overdoses for the reduction in life expectancy we’re seeing. Because we all know that what comes out of the CDC is the Gospel!
“But in no way can the entire recent excess mortality be attributed to vaccine reactions”.
Well nobody’s saying the ‘entire’ excess deaths are caused by the jabs but to write off the possibility that there’s a causal link seems very strange to me, especially when we are seeing so many other very credible sources looking at the possibility. I’m wondering, because he/she never mentioned it anywhere, where the Swiss Doctor stands on giving a hypothesis as to fit and healthy athletes suddenly dying or being diagnosed with myocarditis, because the data demonstrates that this was never the case in previous years. Or maybe his/her theory on the well documented increase in Canadian doctors dying recently, just for instance. Weird…
Oops, my bad.
Second paragraph: “…and possibly vaccine and booster-related deaths ( especially due to cardiovascular effects )”. I went back and read it properly but ran out of editing time! 
And with that a Good Morning.
“Freezing energy bills could be cold comfort for the economy”
The article comments that this is the worst option apart from all the others- really? is there no other option? Maybe it is time to think the unthinkable, time to end support for the Ukraine war, time to declare that the UK wish to see Ukraine and Russia forced to sit down and agree a deal however unpalatable for both sides.
Yes I know Putin is a despicable horror but so are the Taliban and we merrily handed Afghanistan to them, why do we think we can be the World’s policeman, putting everything right?
Whilst Russia at the moment may not be a nice country, nonetheless, in my view we could, with skillful diplomacy and statesmanship bring Russia on board as an ally and a partner, An alliance with Russia would go some way to easing our energy crisis.
Ending the war in Ukraine would be unlikely to alleviate all of the energy supply problems and certainly would only dent the inflation at best as that is caused by the excessive money printing to pay for lockdowns.
And getting into an alliance with Moscow is neither desirable nor feasible in the short or medium term so there is zero chance of that happening.
We have to go warp speed on our own domestic energy security so that we are not at the mercy of international markets but to do that would require significant amendments to several pieces of legislation including the Climate Change Act and the Net Zero commitments. I fully support doing that but let’s be honest it’s unlikely to happen.
“We have to go warp speed on our own domestic energy security …”
In the same way a food security policy should have been part of every UK government’s strategy since WWII.
How many billions in taxpayers money is diverted to companies ‘producing renewables?’
Cancelling all the green subsidies would have a massive impact on reducing household bills.
Oil companies are making outrageous profits because they are inflating prices. The normal energy prices are set 12 months in advance. We are quite simply being screwed. BP made greater profits in the first quarter of this year than they normally make in a year.
Truss could sort domestic energy overnight if she CARED.
I am not holding my breath.
Well said, HP. This whole situation could be sorted if there was political will to do so. Ensuring people’s suffering by not doing anything is disgraceful. I really don’t want to hear any more of this ‘we’re all in this together’ nonsense and we’re doing this for Ukraine. Reduce the subsidies, force the energy companies to reduce their profits, re-open the coal mines and coal-powered generators…mind you, that industry has probably been more or less lost due to no one having the skills any longer…anyway, there are options beyond watching the population freeze in the dark. Government heads have rolled for less.
Damn Right!
Unfortunately the “ruling classes” in all their forms are educated that we still are the Imperial power we once were.Hence our emasculated forces and broken manufacturing base can still be deployed on a whim.
TPTB all live mentally in the 19th century especially the 1% of the 1% that tend to end up being our Prime minister .
We need real change !!
And what’s the latest in Canada? Dictator Turdeau is threatening Canadians with further restrictions ( did they actually get any kind of meaningful respite this year? ) if at least 80% of citizens don’t get their booster. Just listening to the absolute not remotely scientific bilge this scumbag and his cronies spout makes me want to do something illegal to his face. I wonder if we can expect more trucker protests or similar this winter because going by the low booster uptake over there, people are just not prepared to tolerate being bullied and threatened into submission any more. It really could not be any plainer to anybody that the health and wellbeing of the citizens is not remotely a concern for a psychopath such as Turdeau who evidently gets off on abusing and causing misery to the population.

“The trans inquisition comes to Ireland”
This story is almost unbelievable. I had to check the calendar to make sure it read 2022 and not 1522. The only things missing are the rack, branding irons, ducking stools, and a big fire. So, in a complete turnaround from earlier times when you could be burned alive for not adhering to the gospels…now, when you try to adhere to the gospels, you are burned – metaphorically – alive or, in the case of Enoch Burke, banged up. So, he went against a court order and that is why he languishes in jail – (until he recants!) – but the main point is that he refused to call a boy, a girl or adopt the pronoun of ‘they’. I’ve said here before that I feel that this trans movement is actually a manifestation of a deeper psychological issue currently affecting the human species. Personally I couldn’t care less whether someone wanted to become a girl, boy, something in-between, a pink rabbit or whatever they like. What I do have an issue with is how that is made into a crime if you question it or decide not to go along with the charade. A hate crime, where someone would mock, bully or belittle someone who wished to transmute/transform into another gender, is not acceptable. Let people do what they like I say as long as it doesn’t harm another. Enoch Burke could have chosen not to engage at all but he is clearly a man of conviction and conscience and he couldn’t not engage and he now suffers at the mercy of the court. We are indeed – judging by all the other nonsense we are subjected to – in the medieval ages.
My neighbour’s daughter was thrown out of a lesson permanently after they’d had a class led by a transgender woman, in which the message was that anyone could be any gender they chose.
The daughter pointed out that a man dressing up in women’s clothing, having his tackle removed & development of breasts following hormones still didn’t alter the biological fact that when he died, his chromosomes would still be XY & his pelvic bones & rest of his skeletal structure present as being of a male. Choosing how to present themselves to the world was a lifestyle choice & that natal biology couldn’t be altered was presented politely & as a valid opinion in the debate.
Cue parents being summonsed to the Head’s office for a rollicking. Parents backed their daughter to the hilt, said that they weren’t at all bothered from daughter’s permanent removal from that lesson if it was teaching woke gobbledygook & that an apology to the transgender individual for the hurt they had felt from daughter’s violent words was up to the daughter.
Daughter never apologised & never was subject to the woke gobbledygook again at school.
Parents are incredibly proud of their daughter, who calls a spade a spade & takes no prisoners!
She’ll go far.
Covid: the Soap Opera. I must admit that I’ve more or less stopped reading articles about Covid. It’s just not helping my mental health to constantly hope for a change in the narrative when overwhelming evidence shows that it is not the Black Death and that the jabs cause irreversible harm or death. Governments and corporations carry on in lockstep, trampling over any resistance, ignoring all evidence, treating us like naughty children who just don’t know. It is a soap opera. Or a comedy. Maybe a comedy soap. I can’t take it seriously. It deserves to be ridiculed and to that end I will ridicule it and call it out for what it is – a farce. It has all the pantomime villains, the spivs, the Punch and Judy’s along with strings of sausages and crocodiles. To take it seriously as a danger to humanity is to give it traction and gravitas. We must mock these imbeciles who have taken over the world – Schwab and Tedros, Gates, Soros and all their government minions and lackeys.
Well said Aethelred. I had a conversation with friends I hadn’t seen for two years. They brought up the C1984. I said…” it took me three weeks to work out it was a scam.” End of covid conversation and off they went.
I don’t force the issue but when the subject comes up I am blunt to the point of rudeness.
I shouldn’t have to continually suffer the stupidity of others.
Almost normal behaviour, but mega inflation in the supermarket. We’re back to normal term time in the schools, with the usual change of clientele. Today M have stripped out all their plastic screening round the tills, but as a creature of habit I have a stack of old receipts, and it’s possible to do some sums on certain items. E.g. the dairy trade looks like being on top – milk inflation was 61% today, along with related products. The odd one was coffee beans – virtually zero inflation for those.
