News Round-Up

by Will Jones
8 December 2022 1:30 AM

  • “Excess deaths in Australia ‘incredibly high’” – The Australian Government should be urgently investigating the “incredibly high” 13% excess death rate in 2022, the country’s top actuarial body says, reports news.com.au.
  • “Lawmakers Agree to Rescind Military’s COVID-19 Mandate in Defence Deal” – Democrats agree to rescind the mandate in exchange for Republican support getting the new budget approved.
  • “New Zealand’s Covid inquiry: reckoning or rubber-stamp?” – Jacinda Ardern has announced a Royal Commission of Inquiry into New Zealand’s Covid response, reports Michael Jackson in Spectator Australia – and it’s being chaired by a Zero-Covid fanatic, while placing almost every question of real interest outside of scope.
  • “Duke University surgeons are refusing a 14-year-old girl a kidney transplant because she has not received the Covid shot” – This is despite her already having had Covid and recovered, reports Alex Berenson.
  • “Swedish birthrate data: September update” – Extreme low fertility persists and mRNA vaccines look more and more like the culprit, says El Gato Malo.
  • “Forgetful Fauci’s Deposition: All Those Lies Are Hard to Keep Straight” – Fauci’s evasions leave us with more questions than answers – and more clues that he used his position as a top official at a powerful Government agency to persecute and suppress dissenting scientific beliefs, write Phillip W. Magness and James R. Harrigan and AIER.
  • “China’s battle with Omicron is just beginning” – After three years of pushing Zero Covid, the message from the Chinese state has now changed, says Cindy Yu in the Spectator: “Each person’s health is now their own responsibility. State media is emphasising ‘new evidence’ showing that Omicron has a lighter viral load than previous strains.”
  • “Whitehall left counting the cost of Covid” – The headcount in Government departments is up considerably on pre-pandemic, reports the Spectator.
  • “Doctors’ urgent warnings ignored as monstrous MHRA authorises unnecessary Covid vaccine for infants” – Kathy Gyngell in TCW reprints in full a powerful letter from doctors.
  • “New Zealand court takes custody of Baby Will” – Steve Kirsch writes that the court has entrusted two doctors with the medical decisions regarding the care of Baby Will, whose parents were insisting on unvaccinated blood for a transfusion.
  • “Hugh McCarthy in discussion with Randall Bock, MD about the destructive Covid policies enacted upon society, especially against children.” – Watch the two Daily Sceptic contributors in conversation on Joel Smalley’s Substack page.
  • “Elizabeth Hart on The Mike Ryan Show” – Listen to the Australian researcher discuss ‘no indemnity’ for doctors or health professionals administering the jab. They have been “misled” by the Australia Federal Government, she says.
  • “Sadiq Khan’s ULEZ is a tax on the poor” – Andy Mayer in Spiked says White Van Man and School-Run Mum are paying a heavy price for the Mayor’s eco-posturing.
  • “Switzerland’s energy lockdowns” – Blackouts could lead the Government to limit electric car use to only essential journeys, says Lauren Smith in Spiked.
  • “Emmanuel Macron’s plan to ban French domestic flights derided as ‘complete and utter nonsense’” – The head of global airline industry attacks the French President’s flagship new environmental policy, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Nicola Sturgeon’s claim to be world leader on climate change ‘in tatters’ after watchdog report” – The Climate Change Committee found her Government is missing most of its green targets and has no “clear delivery plan”, the Telegraph reports.
  • “Lies, damned lies…and economic, global warming and Covid models” – John Longworth on Conservative Home says when it comes to decision-making, “give me an economic historian in preference to a model any day”.
  • “Graham Linehan: how the Father Ted musical got cancelled” – On his latest Spectator podcast, Winston Marshall speaks with Irish comedy writer Graham Linehan, creator of Father Ted who took a stand as a women’s rights activist, which led to his musical project being cancelled.
  • “Prestigious Psych Journal Cans Editor for Soliciting Criticism of Black Psychologist” – One of the most prestigious psychology journals in the world is demanding its editor resign – or be fired – for soliciting academic criticism of a black psychologist, reports Washington Free Beacon.
  • “The Twitter Files just got a lot more interesting” – What is increasingly clear is that the FBI and Twitter were working hand-in-glove to suppress what they deemed to be ‘misinformation’, writes Freddy Gray in the Spectator.
  • “Abortion clinic buffer zones are a step towards the end of free speech” – It is hard to see the U.K. Supreme Court’s backing of buffer zones as anything other than “a prohibition on speech based on nothing more than somebody else’s preference not to hear it”, says Andrew Tettenborn in the Spectator. “One might be forgiven for thinking that this was exactly what free speech was about.”
  • “Loyal? Not the new woke Royals” – The Palace punishes a loyal aide to appease an agenda-driven activist, writes Ramesh Thakur in Spectator Australia.
  • “The Costs of Abolishing Slavery” – Watch Dr. Doug Stokes, Professor in International Security at the University of Exeter, launch the new History Reclaimed webinar series on the culture wars and ‘decolonisation’.
