Well thats very telling isn’t it? Guilty as charged m’lord!
What a joke isn’t it?
A complete whitewash by the Convict party. Passing over the ‘end’ of the whitewash to the Labtards. The conclusion is known. Lock down harder, faster, go door to door with the poisons. Labour will rubber stamp this and the Convicts can then run against it as the party of ‘freedom’, blah blah. Arselings, criminals, corrupts.
According to Wikipedia, “The open sessions of the [Chilcot] inquiry commenced on 24 November 2009 and concluded on 2 February 2011. In 2012, the government vetoed the release to the inquiry of documents detailing minutes of Cabinet meetings in the days leading up to the invasion of Iraq in 2003.” I guess the Hallett inquiry will follow the same timescale or even lengthen it. Do you remember in 2020 when the weapons of mass infection were forty-five minutes away from a press conference every day?
Weapons of mass infection – good one. With the death tickers running every second on the BBC and WMI the only salvation. The lies around WMI are almost endless and ignored by Dame Overly-Plump’s inquiry.
Nice little 3min montage of experts from around the world saying the quiet parts out loud. Yes, it’s undoubtedly democide all the way down regarding all of this excess death. They can run but they can’t hide;
“The evidence is beyond a reasonable doubt that the vaccine is causing more deaths than the virus itself.”
Only after the Covid vaccines became compulsory we saw a spike in excess deaths “you have to be really stupid to not see the correlation!”

“The truth is The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.” – W. Churchill
Heehee, you and your quotes.
He wasn’t wrong there though was he? I would also add that you can’t run from it either. But what fresh madness do we have here? They’re going for maximum trolling now surely…Just when you think they are done insulting the general public’s intelligence…enter; a ”heart failure pandemic” FFS!! ( 4min clip );
”Wow. Scientists are now warning that the latest COVID variant could trigger a “heart failure pandemic.”
And get this: Pfizer, the same company that sold you the so-called vaccines, is making a big bet on that “heart failure pandemic.”
The pharmaceutical giant recently acquired several companies. This includes a major $6.7 billion cash acquisition of Arena Pharmaceuticals, a firm specializing in developing treatments, particularly for heart inflammation conditions like myocarditis and pericarditis.”

”Wow. Scientists are now warning that the latest COVID variant could trigger a “heart failure pandemic.”
Again? We really need a COVID variant triggering an idiot failure pandemic: Everytime some idiot wants to talk about another COVID variant now really doing all the gruesome stuff all its predecessors were supposed to do but never did, he just rolls over and self-ignites.
Well, I suppose in one way, they’re being truthful. What they’re not admitting is that the coming “new variant heart failure pandemic” has been caused by their jabs weakening the hearts of millions of jab recipients so that they have become far more vulnerable to any illness.
And the more jabs you had, the more susceptible you have become.
That’s just the old People dropping dead in the streets! story of February/ March 2020 recycled once again. And people are still always doing that because – OMFG! – all people eventually die. I’d certainly prefer to drop dead in the street because of a cardiac arrest to succumbing to an ear infection caused by people shouting nonsense scare stories into my ear all the time.
incumbents’ desire to keep their elected positions.
Not a chance in hell.
Who actually is responsible for this “postponement”.
And I don’t mean the cretin who announced it, I want to know who is ultimately responsible. ie the Real Puppet Masters.
Klaus and Billy.
The BBC this morning were explaining that ‘excess deaths’ this year were simply a consequence of an increasingly aged population (but, obviously, not those in 2020)……and that there weren’t that many really because January’s figures were really those who had died in December 2022. At this point, my driving became erratic and no hedge was safe……
Oh for heavens sake!
So according to bbc then, the 20 to 45 year old cohort is now elderly? because that cohort has seen the biggest increase in excess deaths!
The Establishment knows that of all the fronts they need to defend, the fall of the ‘vaccine’ narrative will destroy them.
If they were semi-honest and acknowledged the harm they might survive by blaming expediency – and bad scientists. However, to do so would risk Net-Zero (also harm and bad scientists).
Is it not the case that Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) was granted, in lieu of normal methods of testing? Perhaps they are worried that the way the product was promoted might end up in the same junk box as the Horizon cash handling product eventually.
I bet that will be rigorous and eclectic with a healthy dose of circumspection and admission of culpability. This is a big deal and they know it is a big deal and they are laughing in your faces faeces. They know the numbers. After all if you look at the doubling of claims for the disability benefit called PIP they can see the doubling that has occurred precisely in line with the introduction of the stabbination. They know the worldwide numbers, they know that the burden of the disabled will cripple society for decades to come. They know the impact on fertility and birth. They know it like the back of their hand and they monitor it because all of these indices point in the direction of their desired outcome.
There will be a general debate on trends in excess deaths in Westminster Hall on Tuesday 16 January 2024 at 9:30am, led by Andrew Bridgen, MP.
That will doubtlessly become another speech in front of an empty house …
I’m not sure it really matters when the inquiry into the vaccines happens as the conclusion of the inquiry is a foregone conclusion. Covid was such a serious threat that granting emergency use authorisation was fully justified and there may be a small number of deaths/serious injuries but the benefits far outweigh the harms, no doubt numerous dodgy computer models will be given precedence to show the vaccines saved 100,000’s of lives.
Ken Clarke in a bad wig.
Time off with full pay no doubt.
If you think the UK is corrupt. Look at the Democrats in the US. Unbelievable corruption going on there. The whole world needs to pray for Donald Trump. He’s the world’s only hope.
According to Briden, the Government wants it postponed for at least 20 years – so the guilty men and women are long-gone.
It’s pointless anyway – the Establishment will NEVER admit the level of harm caused by these dangerous jabs.
It will surely be just like the covid enquiry itself – ridiculously long, ruinously expensive, and above all hugely self-congratulatory to all who played a part. The only mistake that was made was to not go harder, faster and sooner with the vaccines, and mandates will definitely be imposed next time. If the evil Tories hadn’t been in power, we would have had even more vaccines even sooner!
5 years later…’Mistakes were made, lessons will be learnt, nobody knew, it was an emergency, noone was to blame, Boris Johnson’s to blame.’
Here’s an idea, Toby: The Sceptic should run a public enquiry on the vaccines with all sides given full opportunity to present their evidence. To complaints of lack of standing reply ‘Look at Hallett’.
Interesting idea, I would happily provide some evidence.
The Grenfell enquiry report has still not appeared. There was enormous guilt everywhere, but particularly in our rulers and their slaves. Hm….
“Will there ever be an honest official ‘Covid inquiry’?”
Um I wonder..not really there’s too much a stake for the truth ever to come out.
