News Round-Up

by Toby Young
28 January 2023 12:25 AM

  • “Libertarians for the Covid State” – Why did some libertarians enthusiastically endorse the lockdown, mandatory masking and the vaccine mandates? Paul Collits investigates.
  • “Howard Brown – What Happened?” – The nation’s favourite bank clerk, Howard Brown of Halifax ad fame, sings a protest song written and composed by Dominic Frisby. Really rather good.
  • “About the study claiming covid leads to three per cent increase in early onset dementia” – Norman Fenton and Martin Neil forensically take apart the peer-reviewed studies purporting to show that Covid increases your risk of dementia in their Trust the Numbers Substack newsletter.
  • “Pfizer pleased to announce their new vaccine 90% effective against new virus they created” – The Babylon Bee has fun with the recent Project Veritas video in which a Pfizer executive claimed the company is planning to create new Covid variants in the lab so it can develop vaccines to them.
  • “A big New Zealand study reveals high rates of kidney injury after the Pfizer jab” – A new study out of New Zealand finds a link between the Pfizer Covid vaccine and kidney injury.
  • “Petition: Investigate U.K. excess deaths not related to Covid.” – On the week ending October 28th the ONS reported excess deaths were 12.5% above the five-year average, with only 717 deaths out of the 12,861 deaths involving Covid. Sign this petition if you think this alarming finding needs investigating by the Government.
  • “Nicola Sturgeon: Gender law opponents use women’s rights as ‘cloak’ to be transphobic” – Scotland’s First Minister has been accused of being “utterly shameful” as she described opponents of gender self-ID as “misogynist, homophobic, possibly racist”, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Alan Cumming returns OBE over ‘toxicity’ of British Empire” – Scottish actor returns the OBE he accepted in 2009, claiming the British Empire has become too toxic for him to hold on to it any longer. One wonders which particular country Britain colonised in the past 14 years that tipped him over the edge.
  • “The public sector must ban working from home – or face collapse” – The Telegraph’s Matthew Lynn says economic growth will only come if we can persuade public sector employees to return to the office.
  • “Matt Hancock gave three per cent of I’m a Celebrity fee to charity” – Matt Hancock said his main motivation for going into the jungle was to raise money for a dyslexia charity. Turns out, he only gave three percent of his £320,000 fee to charity. Shock!
  • “WHO advises governments to stockpile medicines for nuclear war” – The World Health Organisation has issued ‘expert’ guidance on how to survive a nuclear catastrophe, reports MailOnline. Will it involve wearing masks?
  • “The other Black Lives That Matter” – Andrew Sullivan in the Weekly Dish asks progressive, defund-the-police activists to spare a thought for the massive spike in black homicides in the past two years. Black neighbourhoods in American cities need more police officers on patrol, not less.
  • “Former spokeswoman for Extinction Rebellion turns on group: ‘Climate activism has a cult problem… I used to be one of them’ – ‘I watched people brainwashed’” – Zion Lights, a former XR activist, describes the madness inside the doomsday cult.
  • “Abolish the disinformation reporter” – Fred Skulthorp in the Critic doesn’t think the BBC should be employing a ‘disinformation’ reporter.
  • “British police are failing because they have forgotten why they exist” – The rising tide of woke ‘staff networks’ in the Met is emblematic of the problem, pitting identitarian politics against general interest, argues Charles Moore in his Telegraph column.
  • “Guardian journalists apologise to former colleague who complained of racial abuse” – Journalists at the Guardian have apologised to an Asian colleague who was ostracised by staff after complaining about racial abuse at the Guardian pub.
  • “No evidence of a climate crisis” – Good short video explaining why climate change is real, but the climate crisis isn’t.
