News Round-Up

by Will Jones
23 September 2022 1:02 AM

  • “Covid hospital admissions in England up 17% in a week, sparking fears of new wave” – The Telegraph reports on a new uptick following the recent rise in reported infections.
  • “Senate Republicans to Force Vote on Ending COVID-19 Emergency Declaration” – The Wall Street Journal reports that the move by Sen. Roger Marshall comes after President Biden said the pandemic was over.
  • “Pin-prick blood test could avoid need for Covid vaccine” – The Telegraph reports that scientists have developed a test that measures the presence of T-cells and so could show who doesn’t need a vaccine (will Covidians ever allow such a thing?).
  • “999 strike: Emergency call operators to walk out with their BT/Openreach colleagues” – 999 call operators agree to join 40,000 telecoms engineers, call-centre staff and others in October for a walkout over pay.
  • “U.S. commits $2bn to ‘high risk, high reward’ biotech projects” – Mary Harrington writes in UnHerd that biotech is entering a new era, as the U.S. Government signs an executive order that assigns $2 billion in Government funding for “high risk, high reward” biotech projects such as CRISPR gene editing, artificial meat and further development of the mRNA technology behind the Covid vaccine.
  • “Military’s Recruitment Shortfall a Direct Result of Vaccine Mandate: GOP Lawmakers” – The Epoch Times reports that the Army has only met 52% of its fiscal year 2022 recruiting goal, and this is little wonder as 40% of men aged 18 to 24 are unvaccinated and they are banned from signing up.
  • “CDC Oversells the ‘Bivalent’ Covid Shot” – Paul Offit breaks ranks in the Wall Street Journal, writing that the FDA approved it without clinical trials and there’s reason to doubt it beats the original vaccine.
  • “Evidence of harm” – Steve Kirsch puts together a reference post on Covid vaccine safety (or lack thereof). One to bookmark.
  • “We need to talk about excess [censored]” – Xin Du in Spectator Australia looks at what may be behind Scottish excess deaths.
  • “Suppress, Silence, Skew and Censor” – Dr. Robert Malone with critical analysis of some recent studies, including one in the Lancet downplaying the risk of post-vaccine myocarditis.
  • “I break down the new Lancet Child and Adolescent Psych Paper on the lingering effects of myocarditis 90 days after vaccine” – Watch Dr. Vinay Prasad analyse the new Lancet myocarditis paper and pull out where it’s concerning or misleading.
  • “The SARS-CoV-2 transmission riddle – Part 5” – Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson write that: “Model methods are black boxes, their limits are not explained, the data they are based on are highly suspect, and their predictions do not translate into everyday life – but all the rest is fine.”
  • “Health professionals: Join our child vaccine plea to the new PM” – Dr. Ros jones in TCW Defending Freedom appeals to health professionals to sign the latest letter appealing for a more evidence-based approach to Covid vaccines.
  • “The Vaccine Narrative Is as Leaky as the Vaccines” – Ramesh Thakur with a vaccine tour de force in Brownstone.
  • “Coroner Confirms Pfizer Vaccine Caused New Zealand Man’s Death” – A New Zealand coroner on Tuesday confirmed 26-year-old Rory Nairn, a New Zealand plumber, died of myocarditis caused by the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, the Defender reports.
  • “Jeff Wyatt: A true man of the people!” – Dr. Niall McCrae in Unity News Network laments the untimely death of a vocal opponent of the Covid tyranny.
  • “Response to Roger Watson’s Article: Terrain Theory Terrorists” – Dr. Rachel Nicoll in Country Squire defends a version of terrain theory that doesn’t deny the existence of viruses (and doesn’t sound so dissimilar to Dr. Watson’s germ theory).
  • ““Vostok 2022: the Military Convergence of Eurasia”” – Dr. Robert Malone wonders if the recent Vostock military exercises by enemies of the West, including Russia and China, signal a real threat.
  • “U.K. at risk of electricity blackouts for 10 hours this winter” – The Telegraph reports that National Grid is set to take “drastic action and disconnect customers” if efforts fail, an analyst has warned.
  • “EU unveils new emergency powers” – This week, to little fanfare, the European Commission set out an “emergency tool” called the “Single Market Emergency Instrument”, by which it could seize control over key parts of the European economy, writes Philip Pilkington in UnHerd.
  • “World Economic Forum cites compliance with Covid mandates to promote ‘climate change’ lockdowns” – The WEF suggested COVID-19 lockdowns have created an environment in which the “lack of social acceptance and political resistance” to climate restrictions may be overcome, reports LifeSite News.
  • “Peta calls for sex strike against meat-eating men ‘to save the world’” – The Telegraph reports that cries for a bedroom ban against carnivorous males have caused outrage in Germany, which is famous for its love of sausages.
  • “John Boyega’s ‘I only date black’ stance exposes the elite’s hypocrisy on race” – Michael Deacon in the Telegraph wonders what the reaction would be from modern progressives if a white actor were to say something similar. Though of course, the double standards are the point.
  • “Teaching union pulls its glowing review of book on two genders over trans activist fury” – The National Education Union U-turns and says the resource from Transgender Trend aimed at children aged 11-plus, which makes clear there are two sexes and gender is a “made up” concept, is “not consistent” with its LGBT policy, the Telegraph reports.
  • “Cambridge University will offer more scholarships to black students after uncovering slavery links” – The university has decided to help “compensate for historical abuse” by handing out more money on racial grounds, according to the Telegraph. I assume it’ll be making very sure it doesn’t give any money to the descendants of African slave traders and owners.
  • “Anarchy in the U.K.” – With violent crime on the rise, British police are losing the trust of the public, says Noel Yaxley in City Journal.
  • “An open letter to Ron DeSantis” – Lionel Shriver in Spiked says that she, a lifelong Democrat, would vote for the Florida governor in a heartbeat.
  • “Three accounts set up by Toby Young are cut off by PayPal” – The Mail reports on the deplatforming.
  • “PayPal Shuts Down Free Speech Union and The Daily Sceptic Accounts” – As does the Epoch Times.
  • “PayPal’s censorship marks a vicious new phase in the war on free speech” – Fraser Nelson in the Telegraph takes up the cause and says it should be illegal to deny essential digital services to anyone on the basis of lawful political beliefs.
  • “Now PayPal cancels account of parents group that fought to keep schools open during Covid as well as the Free Speech Union, MPs hear” – The Mail reports that UsForThem was “shocked” to discover it could not access thousands of pounds of donated money after PayPal suspended its account “in accordance with” its user agreement – as concerns are raised in the Commons about the developments.
  • “Paypal, bitcoin, and the weaponisation of money” – Dominic Frisby in MoneyWeek says recent events have shown how both business and governments can weaponise money and shut down dissent, and recommends buying bitcoin.
  • “PayPal cancelling the Free Speech Union account shows we need a fundamental discussion about the control the big tech giants have over British civil society” – Watch Dan Wootton on GB News speaking to Toby and saying something needs to be done.

Dan Wootton: PayPal cancelling the Free Speech Union account shows we need a fundamental discussion about the control the big tech giants have over British civil society.
