It’s now apparently acceptable to accuse the Royal Family of being ‘terrible white’ or ‘too white’. In fact, it’s not only acceptable, but saying this makes one a courageous, outspoken hero for the BBC and the progressive Left. So, I assume it would also be acceptable for me to suggest that our beloved NHS may be ‘insufficiently white’.
Let me explain. Our collapsing NHS seems obsessed with hiring DIE (Diversity, Inclusion and Equality) managers. The apparent purpose of these wonderful people is (to quote just one of many similar job ads) “ensuring our workforce reflects the communities and patients we serve in order that we can meet the needs of our diverse communities”.
So, let’s do a quick check on how well current NHS staffing “reflects the communities and patients we serve”.
Of the NHS’s 1.3 million employees, 74.3% are white compared to 80.7% of the working-age population and 87.1% of the total population; 12.5% are Asian compared to 10.1% of the working-age population and 6.9% of the total population; and 7.4% are Black compared to only 4.4% of the working-age population and 3.0% of the total population.
Between 2009 and 2022, the percentage of NHS staff who were white went down from 84.1% to 74.3% and the percentage of NHS staff who were Asian went up from 7.3% to 12.5% – the biggest increase out of all ethnic groups
The first conclusion is that the NHS actually has a greater percentage of employees from ethnic minorities (25.6%) than in the working-age population (20.2%) and than in the general population. So, if the NHS is going to reflect the communities it serves, as it claims it wants to do, then clearly the NHS should employ more white people and fewer Asian and black people.
But, you say, aren’t most of the NHS ethnic minorities doing the more menial jobs while evil, ghastly white supremacists take all the top, best-paid jobs?
Well, here are the figures.
For professionally qualified clinical staff, only 68.7% were white compared to 80.7% of the working-age population and 87.1% of the total population; 15.9% were Asian compared to 10.1% of the working-age population and 6.9% of the total population; and 8.0% were black compared to only 4.4% of the working-age population and 3.0% of the total population.
Let’s just do one more category – qualified doctors: a mere 50.1% were white compared to 80.7% of the working-age population and 87.1% of the total population; an impressive 32.0% were Asian compared to 10.1% of the working-age population and 6.9% of the total population; and 5.9% were black compared to only 4.4% of the working-age population and 3.0% of the total population.
All these figures and many more are available on the Government website.
In summary, among all staff and in particular medical staff, white people are under-represented, Asians are hugely over-represented and black people also score well compared to their part of the working age and general population. Given the under-representation of whites compared to their share of the working age population and general population and the over-representation of Asians and blacks, some people might find it somewhat mysterious that the NHS spends an estimated £40.7 million a year, according to the Taxpayers Alliance, on over 810 DIE (Diversity, Inclusion and Equality) specialists and is currently busy hiring even more of these unnecessary people on salaries that our struggling NHS can ill-afford.
Coming back to the question that nobody nowadays would dare ask, ‘Is the NHS insufficiently white?’ – the official figures from the U.K. Government suggest the answer, according to their own terms, can only be ‘yes’.

Where’s the emergency?
The MHRA is a disgrace to chocolate fireguards.
20 million doses for hard to reach people?
How are there possibly going to be 20m unvaccinated people left when the rollout of the other jabs is done?
I am planning on staying very hard to reach!
You are not alone.
Same here, I feel there are many like us.
Sorry to say that almost 100% of my friends, family and colleagues have been jabbed or plan to be
Me too. We are the control group. Stay strong – we’ll have to re-populate the earth in a few years time.
As a guy, I’m very much looking forward to this whole “repopulate” business.
Read my mind, I’m good for a while yet, I hope…
LOL!
Most women, I’m sure, are not. OK by me, though, I’m over age.
Snap!
Down boy!
I am 71 I declined and will continue to do so. Looking for a place to live where I am not forced to take this poison.
Same here.
I’m a bit old to be involved in repopulation, however I intend to hang around to teach the young.
You have my empathy. The rationales vary – but it’s getting hard to find those who have given snake oil the finger.
None of my immediate family have had or want the jabs. Quite a few friends have suddenly said they don’t want it either! There is some hope.
See you in Hardtoreachville.
Hardly a selling point, Roll-Up, Roll-Up, get your blood clot in one dose instead of two! Bargain!!
It is not possible to give informed consent for any of the Covid vaccines, unless of course you happen to be suicidal.
Absolutely spot on! You can’t say there has been any informed consent if it is based on the lie that there is a deadly disease that threatens us all. That is before you consider the finer points of what exactly people were told or not told pre-vaccination about risk and relevance to that individual.
We are witnessing a monstrous crime whose consequences are likely to be suffered for at least a generation.
Johnson & Johnson Has a Long Rap Sheet — Why Should We Trust Its Vaccine?
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/johnson-johnson-why-trust-vaccine/
We need to seriously challenge J&J’s reputation. A 2019 report by the British intelligence firm Alva has noted that J&J’s reputation has sunk dramatically during the past years, from ninth place among 58 major pharmaceutical firms to 57th place. Certainly, this is not a company with a clean ethical record.
A review of J&J’s rap sheet over the past three decades presents a dire and contrary image that should lead us to question the company’s claims about its COVID-19 vaccine given the lucrative market the pandemic has created for the most aggressive medical corporations.
Read the article and hit the links. ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING!

I can’t wait to see Hancock tried for his crimes against humanity
Emergency use authorisation for 4 vaccines?..Aw c’mon..
For fuck’s sake!
CDC has a warning on it and we’ve placed an order, that on top of the 60m doses earlier this week
of another poison I can’t remember the name of! How many people really live here then?
Them: another vaccine. Take the vaccine. Vaccine. Vaccine. Take it. Save lives. Save the NHS. Take it. Then you’ll be free. Freedom. Do you want it? Freedom. Vaccine.
Me: how many times do you need me to tell you to fuck off?!
Here here, wife and I binned another 2 vax invites today.
I find it a bit spooky that I only ever had one, and that was months ago. I was inundated with invites for the flu jab, which I also refused.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock described the approval as “a further boost to the U.K.’s hugely successful vaccination programme, which has already saved over 13,000 lives”…
How the hell can he make such an outrageous statement. Were these 13,000 people about to be executed and Hancock has given them a reprieve? Were they in immediate mortal danger and someone with a syringe of vaccine rushed in and saved them like a fireman dragging them from a burning building.. ? This is utter garbage.
Hancock murdered 40,000 by forcing the NHS to send diseased patients into care homes
Is this reason number 16-21?
What a lying POS handoncock is
It’s been estimated by two different studies that between 200,000 and 500,000 in the U.K. will die as a result of lockdowns from delayed treatments etc etc., so 13,000 “lives saved” doesn’t sound all that many in comparison does it? Must do better Matt!
Here’s a clue, no lives have EVER been saved, just extended a bit.
(Well there was that guy 2000 years ago but that’s just an anecdote)
In the USA, the Catholic bishops have formally advised people wanting a vaccination to steer away from the J&J vaccine because of its greater link to abortion than the others available there.
So a little link to abortion is ok, but a big link isn’t.
They used to call this casuistry. As Pascal pointed out long ago, casuistry can be used to justify anything, up to and including murder.
Actually casuistry is reasoning your way through moral dilemmas and there is nothing wrong with that in principal. And if you want to be absolutist on the question of abortion then using the NHS in any form wouldn’t be justifiable. However, abortion is a reason why I wouldn’t use any of the vaccines – the danger of covid is just simply not great enough when balanced against the association of any of these particular vaccines with abortion.
the external action service has assessed vaccine disinformation:

Thanks for the link.
You lot at 77 have been quiet lately.
How’s little fon?
Little fon
Just carries on.
He’s not yet in 77
Heaven.
Decided to read it. It’s an odd document published by the EEAS who work for the European Union. It’s main thrust is about disinformation from Russia and China in relation to European Vaccinations, and about disinformation in the eastern block re the same. As I said, an odd document, but not about antivaxx type disinformation. I’m not sure it informs us of anything we didn’t know, namely that China and Russia are liars and involved in one upmanship and the EU isn’t far behind!
I’m sold. Wasn’t sure about the other ones but now the J&J is finally here, I’m gonna go for it. After all they do make great talc… wait… no, I’ve changed my mind. They can fuck off.
If you look at the label in the vaccine package, in the US it adds in small blue fonts: For use under Emergency Use Authorisation
However, this is not mentioned anywhere in the UK label.
Why?
EU does not approve under Emergency Use Authorisation (a temporary approval that must be renewed or withdrawn and comes with tight monitoring conditions), EMA has provision called Article 5(3) that says individual states are free to decide to use a new medicine. MHRA gives formal approval based on available data.

No thanks
Mike Yeadon is right. We are in the presence of great evil.
Everyday proves that he’s right with, for example, officialdom turning a deliberately blind eye to the dangers of the barely tested “vaccines” while all the evidence shows that the pandemic (sic) is disappearing faster than they can dream up new exotic-sounding variants.
For crying out loud, how can we turn the tables on these buggers? It’s not going to be easy. Too many nincompoops accept whatever they read in the bought and paid for MSM.
We will ONLY make any headway with a political approach; funding, eloquent spokesmen, charismatic leader, volunteer network, professional social media and comms and based on a strong grassroots presence. At https://backtonormal.org.uk/ we have the grassroots local presence across the UK and a unique approach (old school, below-the-radar doorstep delivery) which could be the start of at least one component of the required mix.
Anything else is, I’m afraid, just a pressure group in a crowded field
Thanks. I’d MUCH rather be wrong, but I’m not. I’m not only good at what I do (essentially, scientific pattern spotting when there’s insufficient data for most people) but I’m now completely obsessive. I don’t do anything else but this, really.
And the more we look at what’s happening around the world as well as the direction of travel, the only question I have is “Has the trigger already been pulled or not?”
I’ve been surprised at the toxicity of these ‘first generation’ vaccines, but that’s based on the assumption that Gen 1 is mostly about getting people onto vaccine passports.
I’ve also weighted the extreme lying about variants (and the narrative that additional vaccinations will be required) as meaningful.
I’ve seen an even darker suggestion that holds that ADE will kill the majority who have already been vaccinated. That would be pretty distressing.
I mean, you’d need facilities to store the dead bodies.
Like this?
Picking up the offspring for half term today, having coffee with the other parents.
One confided their half term plans had changed as her husband had come down with shingles.
“oh? and did he have the vaccine about 2 weeks ago?”
What a surprise. He had. She had no idea it could be related. Obviously no yellow card. And no clue that it was anything other than a coincidence. CRIMINAL.
Shingles can leave you lifelong post herpetic neuralgia. It should not be trivialised.
Makes sense. For the benefit of some who might not be aware, ‘Shingles’ is caused by a ‘dormant’ virus that we have in stock for many years after dealing with Chickenpox. I had Shingles in the middle of winter 2012/13. In my case it was treated with Aciclovir, and no real problem. Of course, at that time the pharmacy and the surgery was open for normal business!
People keep pumping these vaccines into there bodies – what could possibly go wrong?
The same J & J vaccine paused in the USA? Since when did blood clotting caused by a “vaccine” be considered OKAY? Does anyone else see this as a problem? Please read the most recent CDC VAERS released yesterday. Makes for an eye watering read.
To the monsters behind it all, it wouldn’t matter a jot if some people spontaneously combusted after being injected…and sadly, there would still be people queuing up for it because the injection saves lives…
German Scientists Find How Broken Parts Of COVID-19 Vaccines Mutate To Trigger Blood Clots
German scientists have found out how the broken parts of Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines branded as Covishield in India mutate to trigger blood clots in recipients. Scientists say the vaccine is sent into the cell nucleus instead of surrounding fluid, where parts of it break off and create mutated versions of themselves. The mutated versions then enter the body and trigger the blood clots.
How the hell are we going to get rid of these people ? Johnson, Hancock, the rest of those dosey twats in the House of Commons, Drs that tow the line, politicians that tow the line, journalists that are too dim not to tow the line ?
