“Why I feel deeply uneasy at William’s treatment of Lady Susan – and the way she’s being sent for ‘re-education’”
Can I just ask, did we ever find out where Ngozi Fulani is really from..?
London ! & I think her real name is Marlene Headley , good job she recorded the conversation that got the old girl cancelled !
I was only joking. I knew that. She’s as fake as fake can be, and her Charity appears to have suffered from very poor book-keeping over the years.
UK born but family origins in the Caribbean I believe – and I guess Africa if you go far enough back, and probably other places too given that a lot of people from the Caribbean have mixed heritage.
Fulani is her husband’s name, Ngozi is I think something she chose herself presumably to sound more African.
Another fine piece of writing and a reminder that we can’t afford to relax yet as the battle against tyranny is ongoing;
“We don’t have to take this lying down. As Gary Barnett says, mass resistance can be effective. “Amazing things are happening today, but still few are paying attention. This is a travesty, because the importance of any and all resistance to the state, any state, if embraced, can only lead to a freer world. This country and the world, have fallen into slavery voluntarily, and therefore have accepted the status quo that is serfdom, instead of clinging to and supporting all manner of dissent as necessary for the survival of man. This truth is avoided by most in order to supposedly get along without conflict, but the conflict only grows in this environment of passivity. When the conflict grows due to the masses lack of courage and indifference, the way is cleared for the destruction of freedom.”

Ah bless ya. Thank you kindly, but there’s a fair few of us amateur roving reporters on here. Team effort.
Anything to help contribute.
Merry Crimbo to you too, and remember to visit more often. I miss our old hang-outs like back in the day. 
Hey, and I’m all for being fruity but less of the “old”!

We were discussing this the other day; one of the 3 journalists to die suddenly while working at the World Cup, Grant Wahl, who died of a ruptured aortic aneurysm. His wife is a doctor and an out and out Covid jab zealot so is hardly likely to concede the possibility that the vax played a causal role in her husband’s death.
However, Paul Alexander has found some studies demonstrating that the jab can lead to Giant Cell Arteritis which can be a precursor for aortic aneurysm. The guy was triple jabbed before he was diagnosed so my theory remains unchanged;
“This paper is catastrophic for it points a finger directly to the COVID mRNA injection as a likely contributor to GCA and ruptured aortic aneurysm. If not directly, then tangently.
Anzola et al. reported that ‘one of the hypotheses on the pathophysiology of GCA highlights the role of an infectious agent. This conjecture derives from the seasonal incidence of the disease, viral antigens on temporal artery biopsies, and several reports regarding viral entities such as varicella-zoster [9] and, more recently, SARS-COV-2 as possible GCA triggers. Likewise, a relationship with the influenza vaccine has been described [10]. In a recently published case of GCA related to the mRNA vaccine, a similar observation was made regarding these vaccines and their ability to induce cross-reactivity and trigger self-recognition using different mechanisms [2].’”

Morning Mogs….
Alex Berenson is asking a similar question….i.e why CAN’T they even consider the question of what caused his death?

Too much vested interest, at least in the Grant Wahl case. His wife is part of the Biden administration so she’s never going to change her tune. And note what a bloody Nazi she was, advocating for a two-tier society and the segregation of people who quite rightly chose a different path because they had common sense.
Good morning back!
Thanks for the additional information. I wouldn’t say she was never going to change her tune if she thought the injection had been responsible for her husband’s death. Unlikely yes but not impossible. I think of Dr Malhotra and the catalyst for his change of view regarding the injections appears to have been the death of his father. Although, he was always against mandates.
Yes time will tell I guess. It is possible to do a full 180, Malhotra style, though with her ties to government I’m not holding my breath as I think she’s in too deep to deviate from the narrative now. Sunk-cost fallacy and all that…
Seems good old Karma is still quite reliable and on a roll. https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/why-cant-we-talk-about-any-of-the?utm_source=profile&utm_medium=reader2

I’m so glad to see that the Highwire have done a great job in shining a light on the total hypocrisy and misinformation coming out of the US CDC regarding masks. This year masks are effective against respiratory illness but in 2020 they weren’t? Really? This 8min video says it all;

Some interesting up to date facts and figures for Scotland…and well worth a browse..
Why did mortality suddenly step up by 150 deaths per week? Well, you be the judge – the timing is unfortunate coincident with the latest round of gene therapy.
You can see 2021 was nearly the worst ever, and 2022 is currently just slightly lower. In contrast, you remember the ‘deadly pandemic year’ of 2020, when AT THIS TIME governments were howling about ‘lockdowns’ being needed, and the media lapping it up? Well that period is the green bar on the above chart – absolutely normal. Why is everything okay now, yet the sky was falling at the time?
