A name for Sundays discussion ! Richard Tice !!.. He was doing so well ! & Where does that leave Nigel ??..
I haven’t seen it, but I saw some comments about throwing Bridgen under a bus??
Andrew Bridgen at the protest yesterday outside the BBC in support of the ‘vaccine’ injured and bereaved: –
https://www.bitchute.com/video/y0TbFmQV4UHZ/
For those of us who missed that one:
https://vk.com/wall594771890_34625
Yeah. Always had my doubts about Tice. Definitely fake. Apparently he plays Olympics with Isobell Oakshott…who wrote Midazolam’s diaries. And Tice is still supporting “vaccines.” Sex and travel Mr Tice.
…I won’t be voting for him, besides Andrew Brigden..he also supported the deportation of Novak from Australia …….jab-fuhrer in my opinion…
Can’t help thinking he’s just another Conservative chancer..pretending he’s something else…..I don’t think anyone from the ranks of any party that we have got now will be any different..
We need a brand new outsider …..
Laurence Fox
David Kurten
Yes…someone like that would be good….
They both stood for London Mayor and got very few votes. People need to stop voting Conservative.
David Kurten was also at the protest yesterday, although he didn’t speak. Most speeches were by the vaccine injured and bereaved.
I remember seeing footage and reports of him at a few of the early anti lockdown protests
I’m not sure if Nigel has called out the jabs yet has he ?
He was weak on Covid from the start
He has said he won’t be having any more. I think he has stated he took the first two.
“Trans rights activists take to the streets of Glasgow to protest”
Has anyone yet defined a ‘right’ that the citizens of the UK have that ISN’T also enjoyed by trans-people.? Or are we still talking about additional rights for them at the expense of others.?
Waiting for the one down ticker to tell which rights they don’t have that the rest of us have.
“British Museum bans the word ‘mummy’ out of ‘respect’ for dead”
In any case, a lot of them were ‘daddy’s’, so sexist too. D’uh.
LOL! You just have to laugh sometimes..I wonder when I totally ignore this (and all their other) rules …. if I can get myself arrested?
At least I’ll be able to see a doctor and a dentist…might be worth it!!
“Times New Roman typeface is ableist, civil servants told”
I vote we use ‘Comic Sans’, the saddest of all fonts.
“$5 million each for descendants of slavery in San Francisco ”
If a descendent of a slave takes the cash, does that mean that the whole racism thing is levelled up never to be spoken of again, and all it cost was another Trillion.? Bargain..!
Interesting. How are they going to define slavery and to whom will it be applied? To be truly egalitarian, I assume they’ll have to include slaves of all colours, faiths and creeds (including Christians and indigenous peoples) plus those who suffered indentured servitude (illegal under the 13th Amendment as a form of slavery). Anything less would be racism. Oh, wait….
The Chinese especially who came to San Francisco in large numbers and ended up in slave conditions.
Bonkers knows no bonkers like woke bonkers… They’re all a bunch of wonkers!
Further to my mealworm bombshell this article seems particularly fitting. James Corbett has written an excellent essay on the weaponization of food. He looks at some historical examples of just how effective this approach is but also what the future may look like, highlighting some research that is going on currently. For instance, click on the link which explains how DARPA are funding researchers to find ways to turn military plastic waste into protein powder. Yes, really.
“But if this food crisis is being knowingly engineered, the question is why? What purpose would governments have for creating food shortages for their own people?
The answer is simple. We are witnessing a controlled demolition of the food supply chain, one that is intended to result in the destruction of the current industrial farming system as we know it. But this changeover is not intended to return us to truly sustainable farming practices, with local, organic farmers producing crops in accordance with age-old agricultural wisdom. Far from it.
As it turns out, the “solution” to this food crisis being proffered by the billionaires of the corporate-pharmaceutical-medical-industrial-philanthrocapital-military complex is being engineered in laboratories and sold to the public via a bought-and-paid-for mainstream media.
One thing is for certain: the future of food will look very different from anything that we have seen in human history.”
https://corbettreport.substack.com/p/what-is-the-future-of-food
The pharma takeover of medicine happened quietly out of sight of most people.
It is more than plausible a similar takeover if food production is underway.
Oh I don’t just think it’s plausible, it’s happening! Apparently from the 26th of this month we have mealworm unleashed on the unsuspecting EU public, just because. It’ll be like kids looking for Willy Wonka’s golden ticket just in complete reverse! Doing the weekly shopping just became 10X longer because of all the labels I need to scrutinize, and that’s if they do actually list the stuff clearly. Or will it be like monosodium glutamate whereby it has at least one E number and about 7 other names?
Now I know they’re trying to poison us ( if they don’t starve us first ) and if I wasn’t fully sold on the depopulation hypothesis I certainly would be after learning all of this. I mean, seriously, humans have managed to eat bread for eons without the addition of ground grubs but now it becomes a thing? Oh and I’ll be waiting for the fanfare declaration on the mainstream news announcing this is hitting our food supply in a few days…not! I’ll bet the farm this is not widely known common knowledge because the whole idea is that it’s a stealth bomb approach. So I shall be sharing this fact on FB, Whatsapp groups, you name it. People need to be informed.

Now, digging in to rabbit holes. What if the ‘foot and mouth’ epidemic in 2001 was ‘manufactured?’
And why did Bliar have to slaughter 12 million cattle because pharma injections were available and could have been used to save those cattle? Sounds familiar
Now, insects as food. The manufacturing companies have already ensured they don’t have to release any data, safety or otherwise – sounds familiar – although these insect compounds will be listed on supermarket products, allegedly. However, if these insect compounds find their way in to cattle feeds we no doubt would know nothing about it. It’s not as if this would become public knowledge is it?
Is it possible that latent diseases might find their way in to the food chain via the cattle we subsequently eat?
Personally I don’t believe this is beyond the realms of possibilities.
Warning: Slaughtered on suspicion – film above is long at 1.5 hours and while engrossing is an uncomfortable watch. Sadly, the parallels with our current circumstances are blindingly obvious.
Food for thought – excuse the pun.
Yes that does sound plausible. I’ve seen some things in passing on mRNA ending up in the food chain via vaxxed cattle but haven’t read much on it myself. I think it’s the EU that have always been more careful about vaxxing cattle, I’m thinking of that bovine hormone one too which increases milk yield, antibiotics etc, compared with the US who have very relaxed standards and jab their livestock with allsorts. So I’m not sure about where the UK and EU stand on mRNA in cattle currently. They did it in Australia a while ago didn’t they and cows died as a result. But as for putting insect mush in the feed god only knows. All I know is it’s looking more and more certain that they’re f*cking about with our food supply from all angles. A multi-pronged attack.
But I’ve never considered it being a manufactured crisis. It’s like this never-ending bird flu isn’t it? Poultry slaughtered, I would argue, completely unnecessarily. If it’s all based on PCR anyway. Every time I go to the shops our chicken just gets dearer and dearer, but so does everything.
I might not watch that doc if it’s sad with animals suffering.
“Tate Britain’s rehang to focus on slavery in ‘inclusive revamp’”
Its enough. I get it, we all get it. White folk are evil. Now can we just get back to hanging art in the most appealing way for us to enjoy it.?
We’ve got membership, but I think next time we’ll just go to the Turner bit (closed until March) and leave the rest. There had already been an obvious injection of agenda in the choices of picture and the captions.
Maybe the wokeists will have to come up with a new word for ‘hanging’ or ‘rehanging’ in reference to slavery…I’m surprised this word escaped them to be honest.
“Of course, every death is a tragedy,” said a spokesman. “We must show respect to the cats and monkeys that have… passed… as well as for the Pharaohs and their remaining loved ones…”
British Museum another institution falls to woke…how long before their halls are empty of exhibits because it’s just one big anti-woke establishment?
I thought Elon Musk was clever.
I’m sure he is in many ways. Hard to imagine he was under/felt any external pressure to get jabbed – he seems pretty thick skinned to me. Maybe so he could travel? I don’t know if he travels for work. Getting back into the US should not be a problem as I think he is either naturalized citizen or has residency – either way the jab requirement doesn’t apply.
In general I agree with you Stewart, but how to deal with the fact that many people I know, smart, lovely people (and family)…did the same and for a for myriad of reasons….?
Baffling, upsetting, annoying….
Maybe my ‘faith’ in the medical profession wasn’t as strong as many people’s, as I am always sceptical and always have been…I think for the vast majority, they are still finding it impossible to believe that they’ve been misinformed, lied to, duped, and possibly killed or injured by people and institutions they truly had faith in?
The good thing is many of them are getting on the same page, I think…I put this yesterday but as long as we get there in the end, we will just have to accept some will take longer…..
Stone the frigging crows! This is what the poor buggers in New Zealand have to look forward to as their new PM. Another WEF jab zealot muppet!

“Jesus Wept”
Will this disgrace never end?
I was going to say ”Jesus wept” but thought it a bit early to be offending people. I need to be fully caffeinated before that happens..
“Death squads to hunt down heretics.” Could be another headline. It’s all in the language. What seems reasonable and caring is actually violent and controlling. Never trust a politician ever again. It’s the striving for power that gives them away, the striving to impose their version of democracy or freedom on everyone else. We must bring back People’s Juries and get real democracy.
..don’t know if you’ve seen a picture of him? Sorry to say this but do they have exceptionally ugly weird looking people there, or do they just save them for the Government?? LOL!
Just tried to upload Bob Moran’s new cartoon of St Jacinda…it’s brilliant…
(It kind of just went”poof”…god knows where I sent it…)
If you can view Twitter have a look!! It’s wickedly funny….
We thought horse face was a bit ruff. This new guy is a real sinner. I genuinely couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the pictures last night.
“Somebody only a mother could love.”
As my Mum used to say.
I’ll wager that Sunak does a u-turn on trans law just because a minority shouts the loudest!
The vast majority who’s children it will effect and who belive it’s wrong won’t matter I assure you!
Don’t come looking for my vote
“California may start handing out millions of dollars to people who can prove they are descended from a 19th Century slave”
There has already been the biggest wealth transfer in history to descendants of slaves, via the various US social welfare programs. True that those people were not targeted directly because of their status, but on the basis of need, or perhaps of race, or both, but that has largely been the effect.
Two downticks already, but seems like the downtickers don’t have much confidence in their arguments or don’t have the courtesy to type them.
“TikTok et al would be legally obliged to remove an advert from a charity promoting a phone number for children to discuss their gender dysphoria before they plunge headlong into physical “treatments”.
So it’s the child’s choice to plunge headlong into physical treatments is it? Where the F are the parents in all this?
” Oh so you want Gender reasingment surgery do you sweety?, oh that’s nice, must rush l’m late darling! Bye”
I couldn’t care less about what Elon Musk has to say. I’ve been saying for ages now that Musk is not to be trusted in anything he says or does. Does Musk, with his billions, do any real meaningful philanthropy – I mean REAL philanthropy not the fake one that BMGF does? He says one thing and does another. He makes thousands of people, possibly millions, think he is on ‘our side’ by saying outrageous things and doing outrageous things but beneath it all, he’s still a billionaire with an awful lotta dosh and an awful lotta power. Does he wield these things to good effect? Did his Twitter will he, won’t he, will he, won’t he theatrics result in anything good? Yes, a few people got back their Twitter accounts but so what? Who’s listening to them now? So when this bullshit tweet appears saying he hopes no permanent damage done by the 2nd booster (hey, I’m one of you!), I just don’t want to know. He’s not our saviour he’s a trickster, in the classic mythological sense of the archetype. Look him in the eyes and tell me he’s not playing us.
…I have no idea..you are probably right. Although he has also tweeted that a relative is vaccine injured…so maybe he is learning the hard way? Or maybe he’ll be a let-down ultimately…..? Who knows?
The only thing I can say at the moment is that Twitter is 100% better….I don’t tweet but I do read the doctors, epidemiologists and others who are on there…it is a fantastic source of information…..
There are dozens of people who had been banned for going against the narrative, good people like Joel Smalley, and literally dozens of doctors,….who are now back … The conversations and opinions being aired currently, would not have seen light of day before Elon….it is really amazing in this one respect…..
So just for that, I am truly grateful…..
What’s wrong with being a billionaire?
Why would you want or expect anyone to be “philanthropic”? I’d rather they were honest and bought themselves lots of Bentleys. Bill Gates and George Soros are philanthropists. Ron Unz is not as rich as Musk but he has funded a free speech platform, and Musk is doing the same.
Saviour? Seems like a straw man argument to me. I don’t need to “trust” him, I just need to note that speech is freer on Twitter than it is on all other mainstream social media platforms.
Well I read my post again and nowhere in it do I say there’s anything actually wrong with being a billionaire, ToF, but, yes, I would expect someone who has made billions to actually come good and put something back into the world. That’s the world I would like to live in. Also a world where you actually can ‘trust’ people and their word and their actions.
I don’t think that world has ever existed and seems unlikely to ever exist.
The comments under the Mail article on the Utah surgeon are quite encouraging and a strong indication that the tide has definitely turned.
He was also quite benevolent and cheap.
In the UK, the rate was 10x as much.
In Romania, it was standard practice and free though….
Initially I think I read the US paid around $30 for administering a vaccine …
In March 2021, under MediCare this rose to $40 to administer each dose of a COVID-vaccine, so $80 for the administration of double-dose COVID-19 vaccines….
So the higher price will have covered most most of the jabbinations…
The payments to hospitals for Covid stays, and for administering Remdesivir etc…is utterly phenomenal…!!
I would have happily paid more for the faux stuff and a card, if I had needed a ‘jab’ to work, or to get my kids into school…
fair exchange is no robbery as far as I’m concerned….
One day I’m sure we will find out that everybody in the ‘top-tier’ of Government, society, sport and entertainment…..did exactly the same…..
For those who are interested in stats and graphs….there have been new updates to mortality watch where you can now compare mortality for multiple countries in one chart….
https://www.mortality.watch/
This video put together by Matt Taibbi, is funny but more than that, truly a testament to the absolute lies, misinformation and utterly overwrought bonkers approach to Convid (it’s the US but could be anywhere)and children….
It should be shown everywhere and anyone who has played a part in masking and ‘getting this crap’ into children‘ arms…and utterly abusing children should be made to pay….it makes my blood boil…..

A decent article pointing out why perhaps we are where we are.
“…the spirit has departed. Edward Heath kicked that ball into play when he committed high treason, handing over our sovereignty to the Treaty of Rome, against written legal advice and admonition.”
I have been saying for well over thirty years that Edward Heath was a traitor. I was right all along though I was frequently mocked for the comment.
More action from Ron DeSantis: –
