News Round-Up

by Toby Young
27 December 2022 1:17 AM

  • “The woke mob has come for the Christmas tree” – Galleries and museums used to delight us with their festive decorations. Now they prefer low-grade agitprop, writes Michael Mosbacher in the Telegraph.
  • “Number of stay-at-home dads in U.K. up by a third since before pandemic” – Lockdown was “catalyst for change”, with men now spending more quality time with their children, says the Guardian, which regards this as a “silver lining”.
  • “Senior Tories risk losing seats if Nigel Farage returns to politics, experts say” – If Farage comes out of retirement to galvanise the electoral prospects of Reform U.K. Iain Duncan Smith, Dominic Raab and Theresa Villiers could all lose their seats, says the Guardian.
  • “Mask dependency among young Japanese” – Mask dependency in Japan predated Covid, but it’s now much, much worse, says Guy Gin in his Substack newsletter.
  • “Labour MPs took £35,000 in gifts from striking unions” – Labour frontbenchers and MPs have accepted more than £35,000 in gifts and hospitality from striking unions over the past three years, according to a report in the Mail.
  • “£3.2bn warship HMS Prince of Wales spends longer in dock than at sea” – HMS Prince of Wales, one of the U.K.’s two aircraft carriers, has now spent more time being repaired in docks than it has at sea, reports the Times.
  • “AI cure for bed blocking can predict hospital stay” – Technology that accurately predicts when patients will be ready to leave hospital upon their arrival in A&E is being introduced to solve the NHS bed-blocking crisis, says the Times.
  • “Harry Potter star fails to enchant villagers with ‘sweeteners’ as he plans eco-estate” – Rupert Grint is hoping to win planning consent for redevelopment of his £5.4million Hertfordshire ‘eco-estate’, but locals are unimpressed, reports the Telegraph.
  • “A Tesla owner says his car wouldn‘t charge in freezing temperatures, leaving him stranded on Christmas Eve” – Domenick Nati tells Insider that the problem has forced him to cancel his Christmas plans as no Ubers are available where he lives in Virginia.
  • “Dentist shortages signal ‘broken, underfunded system’ as 40% of patients would ‘do it themselves’” – 47 million dental appointments have been lost since the first lockdown, according to the Telegraph, as NHS dentists leave the profession in droves.
  • “What really happens to your Christmas recycling” – The waste we all conscientiously sort into boxes and bins is not being reprocessed in the way we think, says the Telegraph.
  • “California will enact series of woke new laws from January 1st” – Governor Gavin Newsom signed more than 1,000 bills into law this year, most of them inspired by wokery pokery, reports the Mail.
  • “What a real inquiry into the response to Covid would look like” – Michael P. Senger takes the gloves off in a hard-hitting piece about what he’d like a Covid inquiry to look like.

THREAD – Nuremberg 2: What a Real Inquiry into the Response to COVID Would Look Like

Given the magnitude of the harm that’s been done, the public deserves to know exactly who knew and did what, when, and why in the days leading up to the lockdowns of spring 2020 and beyond. 1/ pic.twitter.com/RT49SopXba

I’m here

All I have to offer at the moment is that we spent the day yesterday with a family of normies, all jabbed, followed all the Covid rules. No mention of Covid yesterday and people coughing and all quite happy to talk about having had colds, how lots of colds are going round. No one talking about Covid or testing or anything. So they at least have moved on. They strike me as typical GATGA type people.

Hello Freddy…just arrived. Spending Christmas break in deepest, darkest Devon. No mention or sight of any globalist activity, covid sniffles, woke nonsense etc. It’s been a joy!

On the news front, I saw that Not Our Future are doing a leaflet campaign against the Oxford 15 minute city idea. Excellent. I would volunteer to distribute leaflets too if I was in Oxford. Meanwhile Sadiq Khan carries on with plans to penalise Londoners with his ULEZ plans and I hope there is a massive upswell of resistance against this particularly confused and unlikeable mayor.
