Re above – protests in France at the weekend.
Re.”Is it Time to Characterise COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine as Pharmaceutical Drugs and Not Vaccines?” Almost certainly yes – and it should have been, but a cynic might observe that the assessment protocol including it’s duration would be more onerous for the trade, compared with calling them “vaccines” and being granted Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA).
Just utterly unforgivable…

Government papers show January 2021 school closures were ordered with full knowledge of the enormous collateral damage to children.
I have been ticked off before in my descriptions of Bozo but there is no question that as the person – I won’t validate him with the label ‘man’ – in charge at the time he was guilty of some truly evil crimes and this is but one.
The fact that these people sleep at all is beyond my comprehension.
Almost all tax cuts reversed. Back to tax and spend Tories.
“I must add though that it is for reasons of destruction that Chunt has been installed.”
As posted earlier.
Is the UK being set up as the country where the implosion of Western financial systems commences?
The current Governor of the Bank of England is a full on WEF guy, and his predecessor is hailed as a doyen of agenda 2030 finance by the same WEF. The fact that the BoE has run us into the wall with zero interest/zero inflation/increase money supply, is purely co-incidental, i’m sure….
Well Carney didn’t earn the sobriquet ‘Carnage’ without putting the effort in.
….a lot of chatter on line is that they did it purposely to get rid of Liz, so they could install a WEF favourite Sunak…and bingo..CBDC’s…

This makes depressing reading.
And this is how the above article ends:
“We could be on the road to an IMF bailout and control of the British economy.”
Now this couldn’t possibly be the reason Chunt was installed could it?
Silly me, of course not, that is just the Agenda 2030 story isn’t it?
It’s a case of watch this space, isn’t it? I view the economy like that last scene in the Italian Job, with the vehicle and the money teetering over a cliff. Every morning I approach the headlines with trepidation. The excrement will hit the fan soon, surely, and I have no doubt that the many ordinary people who seemingly don’t know or care what is going on are going to get one massive shock, because UK plc will have fallen over the cliff without hope of recovery.
I am in complete agreement T o b. I must add though that it is for reasons of destruction that Chunt has been installed.
Two more in depth looks at the budget impact and market turmoil. An understandable sales pitch for the regulators most recent failure, permitting interest rate speculation in the form of LDI, is embedded as a link in the second one.
I’d just note that this LDI concerns defined benefit pension schemes and pension funds only.
So in essence, if you don’t have the luxury of enjoying one, you are basically now subsidizing the people who got one by paying more tax and having them rescued again.
No wonder that the blob, who is on such schemes, demanded the budget U turn and rescue operation. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/liz-truss-not-blame-uks-market-turmoil-bank-england

CJ’s piece is excellent.
Another person who looked into this is Ron Unz, who sheds light on the dubious role and many activities of Cass Sunstein in those regards: discrediting the true theories as and all conspiracy theories by deliberately sowing absurdities.
Personally, I think Unz has either fallen victim to that or is participating in Sunstein’s ruses as well, when he argues that Covid is super dangerous, that it is a US bioweapon directed against China (first he thought Iran) and when he pushes the goo. https://www.unz.com/runz/alex-jones-cass-sunstein-and-cognitive-infiltration/
The 2 Italians are right, but pretty late.
Even the authorities had to change the definition of vaccine twice to accommodate for the goo’s therapeutic profile, aka (non) efficiency.
Dr. Malone has stated and criticized that the regulators ‘tested’ and approved them under the vaccine instead of drug/gene therapy protocol from the start, as that resulted in the then permissible lack of many otherwise necessary toxicology studies- why that is even the case is another question and idiocy.
He said the correct description is ‘gene-therapy applied to the vaccine concept’.
I always called them ‘temporarily sometimes effective completely novel and experimental gene-therapy’ (with many known and yet unknown, not rarely serious, side effects) and they are and should still be called just that.
“Xi Jinping doubles down on Zero Covid as he prepares to cement power for life”
I’m sort of fascinated by the goings-on in this extreme dictatorship. Chinese approaches to perceived threats is to pile on the lunacy. Square pegs will be smashed into round holes regardless. I saw someone refer to the Zero Covid policy as Sparrows 2.0 which wittily summed it up while bringing to mind that other historical policy idiocy – which didn’t work then as it won’t work now. Let’s face it, this is not a public health drive in China, it’s a way of exerting and demonstrating the mailed unforgiving, immoveable fist of state power. Then there’s talk of extending Xi’s (Xi who must be obeyed…) tenure ‘cos obviously he can’t just retire, he’d be arrested and charged with something or other – there’s always something – and then paraded through the streets of Beijing, like Cersei Lannister was in Game of Thrones, naked and shaven. No, he’s hanging on, thank you very much.

In case anyone thought Robert Halfon MP was fit to hold office:
Senior Tory Accuses Liz Truss Of Acting Like A ‘Libertarian Jihadist’ (yahoo.com)
“I worry that over the past few weeks, the government has looked like libertarian jihadists and treated the whole country as kind of laboratory mice on which to carry out ultra, ultra free market experiments.”
Note use of the word libertarian as an insult. Of course we were not treated like lab mice during lockdowns and we didn’t have a poorly tested experimental “vaccine” pushed on us…
He’s not all bad: –

“Climate change: Can an enormous seaweed farm help curb it?”
I don’t know where these people come from but this plan by ‘British Businessman’ John Auckland has all the hallmarks of a completely daft idea that will make him millions while allowing an enormous raft of seaweed to float about in the ocean. There are a lot of ‘shoulds’ in their plans. The raft should stay in place and any escaping seaweed vill be shot…I mean will naturally die, starved of nutrients. The idea is to sell ‘carbon credits’ to businesses so the seaweed raft, which will be harvested to create carbon rich bales of seaweed, acts as a continuous carbon capturing service. The bales are then sunk to the ocean floor where the lack of oxygen, so the plans go, will not rot, due to the absence of oxygen, and will hold their captured carbon for hundreds or even thousands of years. A grand plan indeed. I’ve heard of similar carbon capture schemes – one is called ‘planting trees’ where large parts of deforested land capture carbon in the…. For one thing, I think the whole CO2 thing is a massive scam and any business jumping on that bandwagon… Read more »
“this plan by ‘British Businessman’ John Auckland has all the hallmarks of a completely daft idea that will make him millions…”
…and the plan is ‘Stupidity.’ This is a businessman with his head screwed on. The eco loons and wokerati will be convinced that such an incredible and wacky idea has to be a success. Even though this daft plan will never get off the ground it should guarantee a steady income stream through to Mr Auckland’s retirement.

this is a very sweet video in which children answer the question ‘who is the richest person on earth?’.
In my opinion the primary school teacher sacked for not using a girl’s pronoun only needs to play this video in the courtroom.
Case closed.

“Why boys fall behind”
The feminisation of education has been going on for 30 years. As soon a sports became ‘non-competitive’ the slide was on. I remember having conversations with people in education around 2000, telling me that if boys were a minority group they would qualify for extra help. The only thing to have changed since then is that it is white boys who have been cast adrift. Teachers and support staff are over 80% female in primary schools, and not far short of that at secondary level. Is there any other part of society that would accept a gender bias of that magnitude.?
No. A gender bias is perfectly acceptable if that bias is pro-female. Education, health spending, suicide rates, homelessness, family courts, prison sentences (on average women serve about half the time for the same crime), life expectancy, average retirement age, the list is almost endless. I always remember a BBC article with the headline “12% of homeless are women”. Of course there have been negative disparities for women in the past, but we recognise those and try to address them. Yet, very few women seem willing to cast a critical eye in the opposite direction. A rather one-sided type of equality.
That’s because it’s never really about equality. It’s about power.
Women have been very successful at asserting their power through self-victimisation. It is a very feminine form of aggression. Men confront each other much more directly.
Women started to get the upper hand when society started accepting their argument that male forms of aggression are toxic whereas more female forms of aggression, such as self-victimisation and social exclusion, are perfectly ok and justified.
The world became a lot clearer to me when I finally understood this.
I believe that it was originally about equality, but then quickly morphed into something insidious. Everything else I 100% agree with. The hypocrisy is absolutely astounding, and the examples everywhere. I was watching Thor last night and Chris Hemsworth got semi-naked about every 15 mins. Objectification of men is fine you see, just not women. Modern feminism uses the same phycological strategy as has been used on the public for the last few years, namely gaslighting. All debate is shut down with a mixture outright lies and victimhood.
I have two daughters, one son, and a wife of 30+ years. I love then all dearly and want them all to have equality of opportunity. So few women offer the same support though and that’s because feminism changed from the search for equality to the removal of a perceived patriarchy. Most women simply do not care about male issues; narcissism is the order of the day.
“A rather one-sided type of equality.” A bit like the debate about racism.
I once spoke to a primary school head teacher (female by the way) who told me, that taking a group of boys into the woods using nature as a tool she could teach them the whole curriculum much better than them sitting in a classroom.
The village primary school now has a weekly forest school session for all of the classes. The children are thriving on these sessions, girls as well as the boys, which is as it should be.
In another village, there is a preschool which holds the sessions outdoors in most weathers.
I agree that the lack of male ‘role models’ in school should be addressed…and should have been many years ago…
….but having worked my entire life in a male dominated job…90+ at most stages ….I have to say that my experience has been that most of the crack-pot ideas have come from male bosses….It’s like everything else, a new idea is introduced and everyone has to get on-board. Mostly it’s about promotion, and getting with ‘the new thing’..
The male headmaster at my grand-daughters school is the one who has instigated mixed toilets….!?
It’s a bit like white Christian people banning hot cross buns because people of other religions might be offended…when in fact they aren’t….!
There is a great sense that ‘we’ do these things to ourselves I think…
There are also an estimated 3 million single parent families in the UK…9 out of ten of which are headed by a female….that’s a lot of kids….starting out with probably no, or a lack of, male role models in their lives isn’t it?
Er…..nursing? 88% female workforce as of 2018. Even when I was a kid (a lot more than 30 years ago) virtually all the teachers at school were women, at various unis virtually all men, and the boys then didn’t seem to suffer so I’m not sure it’s teacher gender that’s been the causative factor. My not very scientific, purely anecdotal evidence is that, when discussing either teaching or nursing with young male relatives and their chums over the years, neither profession is/was considered trendy or masculine enough – they wanted to go into banking, or sport, or science or something else. But yes I agree, the rise of non-competitive sport was a symptom of a much more insidious malaise which has now got so bad a prof in the US was recently sacked because 85 students complained his chemistry class was ‘too hard’. Snowflake insanity. https://reason.com/2022/10/03/maitland-jones-jr-organic-chemistry-nyu-fired/
“Teacher who was sacked ‘after refusing to call schoolgirl, eight, by a boy’s name or use male pronouns’ launches judicial review over claims ‘transgender affirming’ policy is harming children”
Some alarming news in the US that more states (Democrat ones) and considering non-affirmation of ‘trans-kids’ as child abuse and therefore a felony that can see you jailed. That’s right, if your 12 year old daughter tells you she want a double mastectomy, you can go to jail for objecting. This is a true evil…

“Tory rebels vow to bury fracking as they urge Liz Truss to make policy U-turn”
Can we stop calling the dark forces of the Tory Party and Establishment ‘rebels’. I believe it is Liz Truss who is the rebel.
