How about providing the evidence (not fictional modelling) that face nappies and vaxpasses actually reduce cases, then?
This is the world we live in now, one in which a senior official can just talk complete and utter shite, that is demonstrably complete and utter shite, claim it’s all fact and the lemmings around him just nod in agreement.
A public takedown of this nonsense.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOM9jWijuH8
Excellent; one might also consider the UN targets for a massive reduction in world population as a driver for government policy. Johnson is surely under the influence, even control, of such organisations. We see the same issue in the Great Global Warming Scam…
Brilliant. I’m a bit confused by Steve Baker’s continuing use of face-nappies – and it’s also odd that Mr Seely has only just woken up to the full absurdity of “Professor” Ferguson’s dreadful record – but at least he’s finally done so. Heads MUST roll.
And who is going to make sure they do roll?
Absolute and utter madness. It is as if in his mind Wales is some kind of “island” and that people cannot simply drive over the border, completely unmonitored, to go to the pub without a vaccine passport, or walk about without a mask.
He can’t. There isn’t any. It’s fiction as you say.
These people have never involved themselves in a risky situation their lives. You can see that from their faces. I have no idea why the Welsh voted for such a coont. If you really believe that the prolongation of this situation will lead to a left wing realignment then you live in illusion. You thought that the suicide during the last two years was bad: just wait for the next six months. Mommy mommy you’re poisoning me with your tit. Shut up and drink it you filthy little tyke.
“These people have never involved themselves in a risky situation their lives.”
Very few figures in central or local government have. The only recent one I can think of in London is David Davis.
The best PM we never had.
Indeed. When Cameron was shoed into the leadership I wrote to Mr Davis, asking him to consider challenging the result. He very graciously wrote back and said he believed that Cameron must be given his chance.
Well,we all know how that turned out. He had to have his very own war and cause the deaths of x numbers of souls, had to compete with his hero Bliar.
He is not coont, whatever that may be, he is a cυnt.
I have no idea why the Welsh voted for such a coont.
The frustrating thing is that they’ll probably vote for him a again.
Only in South Wales where they like his handouts.
The welsh would vote for a sausage with a hat on if it was from the Labour party
”…..never involved themselves in a risky situation…”
Well, he’s not exactly an alpha male, is he?
Drakeford is as big a w*nker as he looks!
He looks as if it has been a while since he found it for the last time.
Yep; looking at the photo above I do wonder if even his mother could love a face like that. All in the spirit of scientific wonderment you understand!
I’m sure he’s quite intelligent – but he hides it well !
Drakeford has abandoned his brain if he ever had one to start.
His brain, having some intelligence, has long since absconded from its slimy host.
Mr Drakeford – the only thing you’re following is the road to Hell.
Only he doesn’t intend to follow it himself – he’s just showing others the way, while he runs in the opposite direction, only stopping at his bank on the way.
There’s hardly any difference in measures between the two countries, what is he on about?
Is no one in Wales going to ask him when, if ever, will the masks go?
No because they’re to stupid, well that is according Mr Drakeford.
Speaking as someone who grew up in Wales, he’s right
It seems that people in Wales think it’s all good, which makes you wonder what perverse psychological need is being fulfilled that Welsh people feel the need to suffer more than the English for no benefit of any kind.
Religious cults work in the same way.
How about using Covid to distract attention away from how shit the NHS is run in Wales.
Do the Welsh still practice archery?
What a twerp! Following “the science”? Give me strength.
He’s so trendy. “Agile” Mark the “disrupter”.
Don’t you know, it’s all the rage nowadays?
Mark Drakeford is a two-bit lowlife. It’s in his genes. Shame on Wales for having this cretin lead it.
Mark Drakeford’s son, Jonathon, was sentenced to more than eight and a half years behind bars in 2018 for a brutal rape and assault on a young lady.
Jonathan Drakeford tortured his victim:
Our characters are writ large upon our faces; for those that can instinctively read other people’s countenances, Mark Drakeford’s has his son’s low-intelligence and thuggish character written all over it.
The apple didn’t fall far from the tree in this family.
Remarkably similar to standing a nation in a corner with their faces covered.
Waking people up to this is like waking the dead.
Drakeford! “The Face of Today’s Wales” – there is the tragedy!
I wonder if voters in Wales are experiencing ‘buyer’s remorse’ yet?
I’m in Wales but didn’t vote this cunt in, They’re dragging the rest of us to hell!
Ditto
I’m in Wales also in fact probably the most Brainwashed community Caldicot I have come across.I get the rare Nursing shift in the Rhondda which is better.As for Wankford the cunt needs milking!!
Nor did I. ABL has made me feel quite sick. We know the likelihood is that come the next election, Labour or Plaid will have the majority. I can’t say I fancy any of the others either but my grandmother told me I must use my vote…
None of my Welsh relatives voted for him. They all detest him. None of them voted for the Welsh assembly either. It was probably the valleys mostly, they say, because socialism is so well-entrenched there. My surprise was their support for Brexit.
Could someone perhaps tell me what business the head of a devolved administration has regarding the health policy of another (de facto) devolved administration? I think none. If Drakeford thinks the English policy is wrong, then, he’s free to choose a different one for his fiefdom and not try to sabotage it because he fears it might be right and but still wants to do things differently in Wales.
Easily explained
He’s raving
An over-promoted parish councillor in charge of an insignificant region masquerading as a country.
Yep! Devolution – a total disaster for Wales – who could ever have guessed?
what a bell end
You’re being to kind, he’s an evil little nobody.
Succinctly put!
He’s afraid the removal of the extreme measures in England he pushes in Wales will make him look the complete utter fool he his.
Imagine being Welsh or Scottish then seeing the difference in England.
It’s the same reason the former DDR shot people who tried to jump the wall.
It could end his career, with a bit of luck.
Imagine voting for that sack of manure with a bit of string tied around the middle?
A question many will be asking themselves now.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-60056510 4 day wait in A&E.
As a Welsh lad, this droopy shit isn’t who I voted for. I’ve written to three MPs, all of them respond with similar copy-and-paste shit, usually patronising, speaking about “following the science”. Shit birds, the lot of them. I’m fairly happy to report that most of the valley towns couldn’t give a toss what the “diverse” capital wants us to do.
Good. Rebel, become ungovernable, spit in his face.
That would be incredibly unhygienic and would likely spread whatever new variant they are dreaming up at the moment
They have one…..
Don’t accept the cut and paste crap. Write back to them demanding answers from them personally. You voted for them, not a cut and past devolved administration.
Had a cut n paste yesterday from my useless MP. I immediately replied thanking him for his time spent pasting an email!
Taffy has forever had a chip about being oppressed by the wicked English. Now that they have their own home-grown dictator, I hope they’re content. I begrudge every penny of my English money that props up a picturesque country, now run by halfwits like this.
I would be offended, but you’re pretty much spot on. We’re a country of culture-chasing, diversity quota chumps. A bit like Londonistan really…
I’m an ex pat Jock living in England and resent having to prop up a tyrant in Scotland I would never have voted for.
If the English are paying, they should be voting!
Drakeford’s comments are the shortest suicide note in political history.
….sez you, and hopes I.
Wishful thinking. 15 years of SNP, and counting.
Surely he is already dead? But then…how can they tell?
I think people are too pessimistic in terms of what happens next. Especially if you look at Austria and Germany etc. We need to be more confident the whole discussion is going to change very soon and then they will attempt to hide. They didn’t give us any foxholes or places of respite and we won’t either. We don’t allow our population or our young people to be fucked with. This will be unlike injustices in the past. When all of this gets out I can’t imagine the reaction.
Liberal leftists hijacked science long ago, what they practice now is akin to voodoo, at best it’s subjective emotive applied science which is a much different beast to “science”.
Science does NOT justify taking away my freedom or bodily autonomy.
Keep digging that rabbit hole
I suspect that some people do not understand politics in Wales
Wales is a welfare state. Huge swathes of the population are on benefits especially in the post industrial valleys. Are you going to vote for someone who is going to stop the free beer and takeaways?
The majority of those who are in work are employed by the government in the NHS, councils etc. These heavily unionised workforces vote Labour
Huge numbers are employed in the Third Sector quangos where high paid jobs are doled out to Labour Party members using government money.
The corruption is off the scale
At the last Assembly elections the majority of the electorate did not vote
Labour were elected by 17% of the available electorate
Every covid rule introduced or maintained by Drakeford plays to his supporters
It is in Labours interests to keep Wales as a failed State.
There is literally no hope of any change for the better in Wales
You present the case for Scotland as well, very well.
15 years of the SNP and not a single major industry attracted there despite cheap land and deepwater ports.
Amazon warehouses and call centres do fairly well though.
Interesting on the turnout for the Welsh assembly. Turnout is low for the Scottish one too. Many in both Wales and Scotland recognise a bunch of local government scum with their noses in the trough and (as has already been pointed out) massive chips on their shoulder. Then again, the same can be said about the London government. It’s on a larger scale, that’s all. Look at the hoohah about the government contract given to “Dominic Cummings’s friends” at the PR firm “Public First”. Apparently it was justified because there was a need for speed.
That’s like saying “Get out of our way, would you? There’s a crisis this evening and we’re in a rush. That’s why we’re taking the government’s gold into private hands. Do you want us to shut down the NHS or what?”
And let’s not forget the Welsh government’s plans to pilot universal basic income. Claus will be so pleased.
Spot on summary.
And the rest of Wales suffer.
In most local elections, all over the UK, the majority do not vote. It’s only in Parliamentary generals when it’s the other way round. In lots of Parish Councils (in England – ‘Community Councils’ are the Welsh equivalent) there are often no competitive elections at all, if there are not enough candidates to cause them. Of course, certain parties manipulate this a bit, by managing the number of candidates for some Council elections.
And look what’s happening in certain parts of the world where they have compulsory voting; not a good idea.
I don’t mind hiding some Welsh **** in my cellar as long as he proves his mettle.I will provide food and shelter and warmth just make it clear to me that you oppose these bastards forever.
Hahaha. Thanks for the offer, but this Welsh **** would sooner stove in a few skulls than go hide. I’m sure the Scots will come to your cellar though?
Sorry. No.
Well, there you have it, Jabby! You get to keep your cellar for other things.
Drakefuck follows the science that Bill Gates pays for.
Drakeford is a Teetotaller I believe. Like all zealots he’s desperate to impose his evangelical beliefs on everyone else.
Make no mistake, much of his zeal is directed at stopping hard working Welshmen enjoying a beer and being as miserable as him.
Sturgeon has the same approach, but only because we Jocks drink to get over the depression of being governed by a lesbian with a chip on her shoulder. (BTW I live in England like any self respecting sweaty).
For all Westminster’s faults, at least Boris clearly enjoys a booze up and doesn’t condemn anyone else for the same.
Correct. He should declare his interests whenever he does things that make the trade go bust.
Mark Drakeford: “It is a Government desperately in difficulties of its own making and is forever on the lookout for a headline which will distract people’s attention from the awful mess that it finds itself in.”
Well tell us something new, Mark. So you read the newspapers this morning. What a big boy you are.
Such utterly banal “criticism” of the government based on what the media have been told to print – organs such as the Times newspaper – is the kind that comes from “opponents” of the government who are so obedient that the government hardly needs any friends.
Has any newspaper even dared make the point that in ANY political party if you wire yourself up when you meet the party whips and then you publicly release the tape YOU WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY LOSE THE PARTY WHIP?
You would have thought that was an obvious point to make.
Which is NOT to say that it should be assumed that that’s how the audiofile got made. Quite the contrary. There is a very substantial chance it was made by a “third party”.
Here’s a free tip to Keir Starmer: HIT THE GOVERNMENT ON NATIONAL SECURITY. Call Johnson a security risk. If you’ve got any guts, even talk about Priti Patel too.
Which brings us straight back to “Partygate”. Why do we think so many Number 10 meetings were held OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING, in the garden?
The official story is STILL that it was because of Covid.
Well that’s an absolute load of b**ocks. If they were “scared of Covid” they wouldn’t have held parties inside, would they?
If the penny isn’t dropping, think of how Matt Hangate fell.
The government can’t even control the security of surveillance tapes made inside its own buildings.
I tell you what. I bet Vladimir Putin can in the Kremlin.
Some of us remember Bill Clinton saying that a room in the White House had been bugged by a foreign power.
There will be more of this in the coming days if the situation in the Ukraine becomes more intense.
Boris Johnson is a risk to national security. A free biscuit for the first senior figure in any political party (even the Tory party!) who has the courage to say this.
Sorry, but we need to wake up to understand that Xi isn’t bad, and Putin isn’t bad, but that it’s the utterly incompetent WOKE west that’s failing and all Xi and Putin are doing is walking into our world through an open door.
We in England need to help the bastards out. If you live in Shropshire for example. Because yes a lot of Welshmen are indeed fucktards but a lot aren’t and we need to rescue the good ones. I have met a long list of intelligent Welsh folk and we can’t allow this to happen to them especially when they are on our doorstep.
Yes, welcome here as refugees. No need to swim. Walk across the border of the land once ruled by princes, now lectured by a geography teacher.
Bluff called. https://inews.co.uk/news/politics/covid-vaccine-mandate-nhs-staff-paused-government-workers-sacked-1416578
Thanks for posting that, c: I’ll send that to ex-colleagues that I know are unjabbed.
One of the annoying things about this story is the impression given by the MSM and other is that this ‘mandatory jab rule’ is only for front facing staff; it’s not true, as I posted the other day:
Bunch or sewer-dwelling chancers.
For fuck’s sake! So it’s vital that people are unwillingly coerced into being spiked at least three times with experimental gunk in order to (maybe) reduce the chances of them getting seriously ill with a cold which wouldn’t make them seriously ill anyway, even if they weren’t spiked at all? Oh, and they could still spread the cold anyway, even if multi-spiked.
Have I got that right? It’s getting mroe surreal by the week!
Chairman Dripford wouldn’t be able to tell what is and is not science if his miserable, dull life depended on it.
Johnson and Jabbit might have said restrictions are ending from the 27th. It would appear, though, that no-one has told my ex-employer – a major central London hospital. My ex-colleague was sent this this morning:
Johnson and Jabbit need to tell these lazy bastards to get back to work!
Tell them what “Covid-19” means too.
Agreed!
I should add re. the “…masks still need to be worn in all of our hospital sites and when moving around our offices, and social distancing still applies” line:
The offices/admin block for this hospital aren’t even attached to the hospital; it’s a totally separate building on the other side of the street. Patients don’t use the building at all.
NHS middle management now setting the rules. Fuck em. I spent six months in a damn hospital as a surgical patient in the teeth of this ‘crisis’. No vaccinations, no masks, no social distancing, and I didn’t see any evidence of covid, other than being threatened by a nurse to be put on a covid ward because I refused a PCR test. She was left in no doubt that I wouldn’t!
Ignore it all, refuse the jabs, don’t conform, live your life.
They need to be firmly told what to do with their policies.
Who’s more absurd: the mini-Bolshevik in Wales or the tartan fascist in Scotland? Or, come to that, the Spineless Wonder in England?
Don’t you know, in today’s shiny utopia there are no losers: each of them merely have deferred competence.
It’s Fucking January for Christ’s sake!
Aaaaannnd? (just kidding).
Haha! What a berk
Idea for any journalist reading this: email 100 central government and devolved government figures who have talked about “following the science”, and ask them to define the word “science”. You’re bound to get enough idiotic responses for an amusing column.
All of these characters know their fate in six months time hence the expressions on their faces. We as the resistance or opposition have our opinions on them but when popular opinion turns against them there will be no forgiveness or respite.
“World’s most over-promoted crap socialist geography supply teacher fails to reach basic levels of comprehension in medical science – shock”
I don’t know what I would do if I lived in Wales. Probably I would be hooked on opiates wishing for it to end.This is your fucking future. You sad sacks of shit. We need to snap out of this.
The guy is desperately trying to destroy Wales.
He’s going to look pretty silly soon…
Bob Seely – tearing the modelling, the govt, and the BBC to bits. Part of a longer session shown on BBC Parliament just now.18.01.22 Covid Forecasting and Modelling Westminster Hall Debate
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOM9jWijuH8
“soon…..”?
Drakeford is looking increasingly stupid as his rules are being ignored here. I do not wear a mask and am not refused entry anywhere except Tesco and Waitrose.
The longer he leaves it the more impotent he looks.
You can’t be refused entry into Tesco and Waitrose if you are exempt. No evidence necessary, it’s explicit on the government website and has been since the beginning of all this.
There is no such thing as ‘exemption’. That is a PR construct. I have a releveant medical condition, and initially enquired with my GP about a medical exemption. I was told that doctors do not provide such a thing. The underlying law refers to a ‘reasonable excuse’. A ‘reasonable excuse’ could include, for example, psychologial trauma related to mask use.
The website ‘Law of Fiction’ is your friend.
Summary from the site:
Only specific people are allowed to query someone not wearing a mask – police officers, PCSOs, British Transport Police, and individuals specifically enabled by the Secretary of State for Health. Anyone else is possibly commiting one or more civil offenses (disability discrimination certainly, public humiliation, ‘hurt feelings’, etc) punishable by fines of up to £9000 per offense. This applies to both employee and employer.
The site also provides a toolkit laying out the legal position of know-nothings.
Someone took an airline to court over mask use harrassment with a claim for £100,000 and settled for £12,000. Please feel free informing Tesco and Waitrose of the error of their ways.
What a cunt
Shouldn’t that be a capital c?
No chance of us making stupidity, supercilious self-righteousness, hypocrisy, self-validating pontification, laughable pomposity and delusion in a public office a criminal offence is there?
Ten years inside should be enough deterrent to stop morons like this spouting off shouldn’t it?
It seems that Mark Drakeford is to Wales what Nicolae Ceaușescu was to Romania.
And Nicola Ceaușescu is to Scotland.
…
Heaven’s sake man this individual should be below our purview. We are moving into rocky times and we can do better than to dissect individuals such as this one. We have great opportunities to bring people together.
Gawpy git – in looks and actions. What a motley crew of people in positions of power, eh? Liars, thieves, charlatans. God help us.
Six months time and the tables will be turned and I mean really turned. Where will you be then? Looking back to a time when you trusted the mainstream? I tell you honestly all of this is about to break and if you are intelligent then you really need to switch over to the other side. They’re all doing it now. But we are like elephants, we don’t forget. Nonetheless we are merciful, to a degree.
What other side? I don’t support any of the crap and believe the lies.
It isn’t just a few of us sorry sacks of shit in terms of the awakening. A lot of people are feeling really pissed off that they were had. As a nation we really do have to assert ourselves, We are the English and we don’t let any fuckers conquer us whether it by spear or algorithm.
Follow the science… make up the science… ignore the data and what competent scientists are saying
Alert Level Zero !
Yes, spectacularly zany.
So when he decides to abandon face nappies and vaxpasses, does it go to level minus one?
That will never happen. Masks are a sign of our subservience and must remain indefinitely.
He’s abandoning his chin.
The dickhead wouldn’t know “the Science” if it confronted him directly with a big stick with “the Science” written emblazoned on it. He’s simply following the naive bed-wetting advice of his incompetent health advisers. That’s not science that’s capitulation. Another over—promoted useful idiot who’s out of his depth but drunk on his authority. What a moron. Clearly innumerate because if he looked at the English vs Welsh data he’d be surely struggling to explain why cases/100k in Wales were higher despite his controls. Even Sturgeon, slow on the uptake, is reluctantly realising she ain’t controlling anything. Cut them loose and watch them go bust.
Irredeemable fuckwit menace.
Drakeford did a lot for Amazon during the lockdowns, they became almost the only source of supply for non food items.
Hope Bezos rewards him for his loyalty.
A fool thinks he’s a wise man. Oh dear Mr Drakeford.
What’s that saying … a fool and his brain are soon parted?
Everytime I’m minded of this awful creature running Wales while the Killer Crankie ruins Scotland, my exacerbation is renewed by how low the UK has fallen.
Oh man how I’d love to see this guy get fired out of a cannon into deep space along with so many other power hungry corrupt fucks!

New studies of effectiveness of Ivermectin emerging every day. Peer-reviewed, large PSM study from Brazil finds, regular use of ivermectin as a prophylactic agent was associated with significantly reduced COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates. The study was published in the Cureus Journal of Medical Science. This medicine is proven over and over again to be effective for covid and flu like symptoms. You can get your ivermectin by visiting https://ivmpharmacy.com
Fucking little dictator. I hope someone takes him out!
That is the kind of talk likely to get you arrested in this here new normal… Just sayin likesay…
Who has the power to get rid of this power crazed Marxist cretin?
Did Blair forget to include it in his disastrous, forced Welsh devolution?
What a f***ing idiot Drakeford is. He may end up with his head on a non covid spike
We live in hope.
Calling your cultism ‘the science’ doesn’t make it science though this is part of being a Corbynite.
What, though, is Kim Jong-Johnson’s excuse for doing almost as much as this?
We have all the evidence we need that Wales will always be in used for political posturing if we don’t abandon devolution.
What if “The Science” is wrong? Mr Drakeford (and many others) should have learned by now that “The Science” is not immutable. In the 1960s my biochemistry professor told our class that the half life of medical science was about six years – in other words, by then half of what we had learned was wrong. But which half?
The Inquisition followed The Science for decades notwithstanding Galileo and Copernicus. Just because it was there didn’t mean it was right.
My Biochemistry Prof in the mid 60s told us to never trust anyone who said there was a scientific consensus …..!!
The whole notion of a scientific consensus is ridiculous. Over history, science has been progressed by those who went against the consensus. Science is also not something you “follow” or “believe”. They are attributes of a religion.
Drakeford is not the only useful idiot round and about. The following missive was sent to schools in Devon by the Director of Public Health – Steven Brown. No prizes for counting up the number of errors, misinformation and complete bollox …
“While we have seen a reduction in the overall number of people reporting a positive test in the past week, numbers are now stabilising, and we are seeing increased rates in younger children.
“Case rates are still high and it is important that people understand that this announcement is not one of ‘freedom day’, but a reverting back to plan A.
“Devon’s uptake of the vaccination is good, with more than 85 per cent of eligible people overall now having had their booster.
“However, take-up of the booster is lower in some younger age groups, and it’s imperative that they and everyone who is eligible for their booster jab, comes forward as soon as they can.
“Omicron is by no means a mild virus, and the symptoms to those who are unvaccinated or who have underlying health concerns can be extremely serious if not life threatening.
“So while the Prime Minister is indicating light towards the end of the tunnel, my advice is that we are not yet out of the woods.
“We must stay vigilant and alert to risk that is still around us.
“Being fully vaccinated, and boosted, gives us best protection from this virus. It’s not too late to start vaccinations, and there are now plenty of opportunities in Devon to get your booster jabs at walk-in and vaccination centres.
“Wearing face coverings is still an effective and sensible precaution to continue in indoor and crowded spaces, especially with people you don’t know.
“Regular lateral flow device testing for people with no symptoms is still the best way to identify those carrying the virus. As is taking a PCR test by people showing symptoms.
“Keeping indoor spaces ventilated is a sensible precaution to reduce risk.
“And staying at home and avoiding others if you have symptoms of the virus or test positive for it, is still the most responsible way to avoid spreading it to others.
“Please be cautious, let’s use our common sense, and continue to follow good basic public health advice.”
What happened to the defiant Celtic spirit? I can’t believe the Welsh and Scots are not fighting this with mass disobedience!! That pair of odious morons, Sturgeon and Drakeford are drunk on power.
What “science”; madness or a desire for control worthy of a totalitarian government?
In a Toy Blair 3000 votes on a turnout of 50% subjected Wales to control by inept and socially destructive politicians. Some surgeons have operating lists only every two weeks while waiting list sore. Sadly there are those who are willing to sacrifice health and well-being as long as they shown the are not the same as England. This man in November danced at Diwali maskless but demanded masks in church.
KNOB!
Unfortunately for us in Wales Drip Drakeford does indeed follow The Science(tm).
The situation would be very different if he followed science – but he wouldn’t know what that is. Atherton is a 3rd rate “Health Official” just copying Whitty and Vallence but adding a bit more doom.
Drakeford is not fit for purpose and proving that, in this matter, he is rather thick.
Drunk on power
The man is a complete joke. He’s so boring to listen to. The Welsh have the power to help themselves, ignore the buffoon and take their lives back by ignoring the stupid rules. Job done.
He may be right about the English government, but really – this guy is a bit of a twat, is he not?
Will the loss of tourism spending as well as further damage to local hospitality industry finally cause the Welsh to send him packing? Unlikely but, they will have no one to blame but themselves.
Does anyone admit to voting for the odious Daffy Duckford? How short people’s memories are, that they probably don’t even recall him partying unmuzzled only a few short weeks ago. And also being filmed speaking about duping the people.
Abandoned the science feels awfy like, abandoned the club. Just sain
They may want to add mr Drakeford to the list of 16 in the legal filing to the international criminal court. He is in good company. Please read the Mercola report today for more info on this.
What exactly is “the science” that he and Starmer constantly refer to? The world’s scientists do not publish a regular unified concensual document about how to interpret a given nations Covid data and how to react to it. In Starker and Drakeford’ case it means doing what is in the agenda off a set of unrepresentative and unelected “advisors”
It is time to challenge not follow “the science”. Drakeford follows the fringe science of wonky modellers, public health officials, behavioural nudgers and medics lobbying on behalf of the NHS. It may not be possible in Scotland but the Government should attempt to revoke his powers to impose more misery on the people of Wales. They should also arrange a Welsh specific enquiry if he refuses to hold one.
Mark Dripford is not following ‘the science’ though, whatever that is. He’s lying through his teeth. There is ZERO evidence for mask wearing by the general public as a virus preventative measure, None, but a huge amount against.
It’s interesting to note how the roll out of the New World Order’s Covid war has allowed Governments to show their true colours. Heads of the UK’s smaller regions, Drakeford and Sturgeon, have just loved being tinpot dictators. Telling people to stand and sit according to their fake science. Australia has turned back into one giant open air prison camp. Austria and Germany are dusting off the swastica. Trudeau can now be the Castro of Canada and the NWO’s choirboy, Macron, can crush his yellow vest opposition and vent bile towards the UK.
I would say the Backward Approach !!
Anthony Fauci’s ‘science ‘, backed by Bill Gates’ money.
So, the science says to allow unlimited numbers to outdoor events ….just before the start of the Six Nations rugby tournament.
Tell the communist worst-dressed individual in Wales to bugger i ffwrdd.
