Dr. Dean Patterson, a leading consultant cardiologist in Guernsey and Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, has written to the U.K. medical professional regulator the General Medical Council (GMC) calling for an investigation into harms from the COVID-19 vaccines, in a letter first published on Dr. Aseem Malhotra’s website.
February 19th 2024
Charlie Massey
Chair of Executive Board
The General Medical CouncilDear Mr. Massey,
I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a distinguished medical professional who, through his dedication to improving public health and promoting evidence-based medicines, has inspired numerous medical professionals to speak out in support of non-pharmaceutical management of chronic illness. He has been attacked for his stance in the past, in respect to his views on sugar and statins. He today again stands accused of spreading dangerous misinformation by a group of medical professionals who appear dedicated to reducing science and medical practice to an echo chamber.Over the last 10-15 years, I have become increasingly aware of Dr. Aseem Malhotra as a cardiologist who has made significant contributions to the field of preventive cardiology and lifestyle medicine. His commitment to challenging conventional medical wisdom and advocating a more holistic approach to healthcare has earned him widespread respect and admiration within the medical community and beyond. That said, he has also faced opposition over the years from critics. He has faced these criticisms openly and encouraged debate on the science. This is a foundation cornerstone of the scientific method. I have been inspired by Dr. Malhotra’s bravery. He is the U.K. standard bearer for integrity and bravery in speaking out for patient safety. The world needs more doctors like him. Many doctors are too afraid to challenge mainstream dogma. Enabling doctors with opposing views to shut down Dr. Malhotra’s freedom to speak will damage patient safety.
I recall prior to the COVID-19 pandemic watching a lecture given online by Dr. Malhotra on December 15th 2019, ‘Evidence-Based Medicine has been hijacked’. This lecture succinctly explains why the doctors of today are not adequately equipped with the training to explain risk-benefit ratios of drugs and interventions to their patients. Not only is Dr. Malhotra an accomplished physician, but he is also a passionate advocate for addressing the root causes of chronic disease, particularly through lifestyle interventions and dietary modifications. His efforts to raise awareness about the impact of excessive sugar consumption and the overuse of medications in the treatment of chronic illnesses have been instrumental in sparking important conversations about the need for a paradigm shift in healthcare.
It is indeed a sad irony that Dr. Malhotra has been labeled an anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist, as he himself took the initial COVID-19 vaccine, recommended it to others and even his father. He later realised that serious safety signals were being reported and understandably has concerns that the COVID-19 vaccine may have contributed to accelerated fatal acute myocardial infarction in his father.
Over the past 18 years, I have been a partner, consultant cardiologist and general physician at the Medical Specialist Group and Princess Elizabeth Hospital in Guernsey with a population of 63,000. Here I am proud to say, we provide a consultant-only service which leads to exceptional continuity of care compared to the NHS where multiple tiers of doctors working shifts care for patients.
In my personal experience, the COVID-19 vaccine has caused me intolerable concern for patient safety here in Guernsey. In my 33 years of medical practice, I have never witnessed such harm from a therapeutic intervention. I lost a female patient due to myocarditis aged 42 in 2021. A 63-year-fit woman died from myocarditis one month after her booster vaccine in 2022 after getting breathless within one week of the injection. In addition, I personally cared for a 20-year-old male with severe myocarditis which developed within 24 hours of his second Pfizer vaccine. In the first year of the rollout, I diagnosed 20 patients with myocarditis and 15 cases of pericarditis, including one death (42 year-old) and another who required an ICD (79-year-old male). In the 16 years prior to this, I would on average diagnose two to three myocarditis cases per year, with serious cases being limited to one every three to four years. The U.K. ONS data for England and Wales show 250 hospital admissions for myocarditis over 10 years. This equates to two per 10 years for Guernsey. In the first year of the rollout, we had 10 hospital admissions for myocarditis. In the second year of vaccine rollout, I have seen another 18 myocarditis cases, including the death of the 63-year-old woman listed above.
In addition, I have noticed an increase in the number of heart failure and acute myocardial infarction cases. I am currently auditing the ambulatory ECG data as I believe there has been an increase in arrhythmia burden. Incredibly, the side-effects don’t stop there, as we have seen a doubling of the stroke numbers recently with an increase in overall thrombo-embolic disease since the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines.
I am therefore writing not only in support of Dr. Malhotra’s views on this matter but also to inform you that the medical establishment appears blind to the harm. I am extremely concerned that medical practice itself will be irreparably damaged by the fallout from the mishandling of the Covid vaccine side effects. Dr. Malhotra must be supported in his efforts to shine a light on this.
While the GMC is mandated to protect patients and regulate doctors, currently the GMC finds itself in a regulatory vacuum where it, like many mainstream doctors, is unable to openly support what should be an urgent independent investigation into Covid vaccine safety.
It is my opinion that the side-effects being detected are the tip of the iceberg. Healthcare professionals are quite poor at reporting Yellow Card cases, while the NHS doctors are overburdened and unlikely to spend 30-45 minutes submitting a Yellow Card incident. This is particularly the case when the same doctors have been indoctrinated with the statement that the Covid vaccines are safe and effective, while the evidence for this safety and effectiveness from double blind placebo controlled studies is extremely weak.
The initial Covid studies were due to complete in Q4 2023 and we await the final report, notwithstanding the major flaw that most of the placebo group have been vaccinated in 2021. A paper published very recently (K. Faksova, et al., ‘COVID-19 vaccines and adverse events of special interest: A multinational Global Vaccine Data Network cohort study of 99 million vaccinated individuals‘, Vaccine, 2024) shows significant side-effects based upon this known under reporting.
Cardiologists in the main continue to blame COVID-19 infection as the cause for the harms I am seeing. However I have not diagnosed a single case of post-COVID-19 myocarditis prior to the vaccine rollout in Guernsey. The U.K. Government website from 2021 to date states that Covid causes myocarditis. The evidence it lists for this is flawed. One study it uses as evidence by Buckley et al. (‘Prevalence and clinical outcomes of myocarditis and pericarditis in 718,365 COVID-19 patients‘, Eur J Clin Invest. 2021) concluded that myocarditis had a prevalence of 5% in Covid patients. This study used data from the USA EMR records, which is poisoned by the flow of money. It is well documented that hospitals in the USA were paid $37,000 if a patient with Covid was admitted to ICU. ICU admissions would be promoted in patients with ‘multi-system involvement’. A rise in troponin, however insignificant, would be the rationale for diagnosing myocarditis and the accompanying $37,000 payment when the patient was admitted to ICU.
It is well known within the cardiologist circle pre-Covid that patients with sepsis often have a rise in troponin and the rise is proportional to age and co-morbidities and not indicative of myocarditis or a heart attack. In 2020, Guernsey had 20,000 Covid cases, which according to the paper by Buckley et al. would lead to 1,000 cases of myocarditis, but I have not diagnosed a single case of myocarditis prior to the vaccine rollout.
Dr. Melissa Heightman, a UCL Long Covid expert, is on record when speaking at the Acute and General medicine conference in 2022, stated that after MDT with cardiologists about the late gadolinium being seen on CMRI scans, they concluded it was just the usual background noise.
In the paper by Buckley et al. above they reference a paper by Puntmann et al. (‘Outcomes of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients Recently Recovered From Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)’, JAMA Cardiol. 2020) which erroneously concluded that 78 of 100 subjects recovered from mild Covid without cardiac symptoms had myocardial involvement on their cardiac MRI scans.
The correct interpretation is that the abnormalities seen were due to the same background noise referred to by Dr. Heightman, amplified further by the study done in Germany using 3 Tesla MRI scanners.
In the U.K. we use in the main 1.5 Tesla MRI scanners. More power equals more noise!
It is my opinion that the GMC must not only support whistleblowers like Dr. Malhotra, but urgently put in place the following:
- A working group to investigate the COVID-19 vaccine safety. May I suggest you speak with Dr. Yvonne Young from the UKHSA and Dr. Melissa Heighten (UCL) to invite their views on this matter? I am part of a growing group of doctors who would like to be part of this investigation, as I am sure Dr. Malhotra would be.
- A helpline to support doctors afraid of speaking out.
- A helpline to support those who are vaccine injured. Clearly the GMC should seek support from the MHRA and U.K. Government with funding for this work.
- A panel should be established to open discussion and reporting the above strategy in the media, in a calm unbiased manner to avoid undue stress on the general population and the healthcare system.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly endorse Dr. Aseem Malhotra and believe that his unwavering commitment to advancing a more patient-centric, evidence-based approach to healthcare makes him a valuable asset to the medical community. I am confident that his contributions in relation to exposing the truth about the COVID-19 vaccine safety will continue to have a lasting impact on the health and wellbeing of countless individuals. There are many doctors and healthcare professionals who will openly endorse my view, but sadly there are a silent majority who will only endorse my view quietly in private conversation.
Unfortunately, medicine finds itself standing at crossroads. There are significant seeds of division. The question for you is therefore: are you going to heal these wounds or empower the irreversible split of healthcare that beckons in an increasingly uncertain future?
Sincerely,
Dr. Dean Patterson MBCHB, FRCP
Pathologist Dr. Clare Craig writes on X that, assuming Dr. Patterson saw all the cases on the island, “that would equate to 35,000 myo- and pericarditis cases in U.K. and 200,000 in USA”.
The increase from one serious case every three to four years to the 28 hospital admissions Dr. Patterson reports for 2021 and 2022 represents a 47-fold increase in incidence. While the data are not publicly available for independent verification, there is no reason to doubt what Dr. Patterson reports from his clinical experience. An investigation into the true risks of these novel therapeutic products is urgently needed.
Stop Press: The Health Advisory and Recovery Team (HART) reports on a Japanese autopsy that shows even subclinical myocarditis after vaccination can later result in a fatal event – and will typically be missed by most autopsies, meaning the mRNA vaccines could be playing a hidden role in a significant number of heart deaths.

Like last years nasty flu season, I expect. And
Given how rubbish the modelling has been, the whole pandemic has been highly unpredictable to the experts. Nothing new to see here.
Can anyone point to a single example, anywhere in the world, where ‘small changes in public behaviour’ (or even large changes) have actually had any demonstrable impact?
Not me.
That doesn’t matter. The important thing is creating the illusion of control. If they do something then when the flu passes as it always does they will claim their measure saved lives. Prove them wromg.you can’t.
And they are going for the one thing the population will not only tolerate bit in fact like quite a lot, which is working from home. Working from home for a.month or two when the weather is foul will be very popular.
When the vaxx passports are mandatory… and cash is gone replaced by CBDC… and of course social credit scores shape who you’ll be…
Du vilst be happy!

WFH is fine and dandy for office personel and management, not so for road menders, bus drivers and bin persons.
Plenty of negative impact to be found.
Speaking as someone who has worked throughout, had covid and in one case was the only person willing to “risk” my life going into a factory building where a couple of workers had tested positive, can I just say how tired I am of this shit?
Only middle class and retired people with nice houses and gardens can work from home, they are the ones wearing masks everywhere, slathering themselves with hand sanitiser and agonising about meeting people outside. The rest of us are getting on with life.
So sick of the psychological warfare being waged by this country against its own citizens.
Absolutely and driven for the most part by the MSM, BBC and Daily Mail in particular. Can’t understand why someone would downvote you! As you say, this government has deliberately waged a psychological war against its own people. That’s a crime in itself. We should never forget or forgive that.
There’s a phantom downvoter on here who often does it with pretty innocuous posts, and never actually posts a comment to say what they disagree with.
he/she is just a little bedwetter terrified people are going back to normal and not the freakish new normal. This person is way beyond help at this point.
Does it really matter when all posts are wiped every day at midnight?
Only the comments on the Today’s Update thread are wiped. All the other comments on all the other/individual article threads, including the News Roundup, are permanent.
It’s a lance corporal in 77th Brigade, he also makes the tea.
“We should never forget or forgive that.”
Yet it’s being allowed to happen, every minute of every day. They are getting away with it, and laughing in our faces. And getting their mates to flog you LFT tests for £35-150 which they picked up for free in Boots the Chemist.
Maybe for appearing to slag off the middle classes? I’m convinced there are people who downtick several posts in a short time, equally, I’m convinced that there are many reasons why someone may object to some aspect of a popular post, so it may not necessarily be the same person if there are several posts with one downtick. Of course, under the old system, nobody would have noticed, then again, nobody knew if they’d got no ticks or if they’d got 18 of each under the old system. Certain things people might object to on a point of principle – language, blasphemy. violent suggestions, slagging off certain demographics etc. At the same time there are reasons why people might not bother to post explaining why. Of course some people read these comments without registering but still have the capacity to give downticks. I hope that there are many people with a different view to most of us who read these comments, hopefully some of them will be persuaded!
Sadly I think the floating anxiety is infecting a far wider cohort of those – other than cited by isobar – who can make other people’s lives a mess of misery.
Unfortunately, they are the ones who make up most of the government and their ‘advisors’ too!
Those of us that started in council houses and managed to improve ourselves a little have retained our BS detectors.
Absobloodylutely
…..to A Sceptic as well, “Oh no I am not!!!!!”
I work from home, and I guess I am middle class. And, no, I don’t, don’t and don’t respectively. Unfortunately too many of my peers are ….
Likewise (to an extent – my job does involve going out to sites reasonably often and that continued for the past 18 months although at reduced frequency).
The attitude of many of my colleagues is absolutely infurating – a lot of them are full-on ‘hide behind the sofa’.
That said, it seems mainly to be the offices which are far too dangerous for them to go to – pubs and other social venues seem fine: presumably the virus knows that it’s not allowed into those places.
Same here. I am of retirement age, maybe not quite “middle class” and I absolutely am not wearing a face nappy, social distancing or taking boosters. I agree though that many of my kind are; which is why they and I don’t exactly hit it off very well. Don’t know what it will take to wake them up; only perhaps an unheated house, no electric, no food and no lots of other “nice” things, due to the economic conditions and futile zero-carbon programs.
Maybe all workers involved in delivering life’s essentials to these people working from home should also cease going out ‘to be safe’. See how long the stay at homers last then?!
Agree entirely, it’s not everyone but I do think that people should be prepared to what their workers do. Too many are happy to let others take “risks” to provide their food, utilities and services while they sit at home in a cocoon.
The country has gone soft. What they want is zero risk and through that they are bringing greater risk down on us.
Lockdowns have a negative effect on health. Let’s lock these silly bastards down for the foreseeable future.
Unthinking generalisations are just a sign of a weak brain. There is a class gradient in this – but that’s a feature of every social phenomenon.
The essential problem is a Tory government, backed by a useless non- opposition (and both their voters) – not the middle class en bloc.
No they are not. You can’t have a conversation without generalisations. Every sentence you utter would require a string of caveats.
fine by me…
Hard to vote against those truisms, but it doesn’t stop the heroes at 77th Brigade from marking you down.
I should add a postscript to this. The health and safety person who was not willing to even come to the site from their nice home office, let alone enter the plague building to talk to the workers is now safely double vaxxed and currently infected with covid. You really couldn’t make it up!
Good
So, you get vaxxed up, still catch COVID and still have to isolate. It’s been admitted there are similar viral loads to unvaxxed and it appears clear the spike protein is the dangerous bit. And … wait for it, he will want the booster. Eventually one of the shots will kill him.
Could be his turn this time around. Let’s keep our fingers crossed fro him.
Rich people also have gardens. Rishi Sunak has one with a £400,000 swimming pool in it, recently installed. Where did the money come from?
I believe he not only has a rich wife but he is heavily involved in the financial sector.
“While studying at Stanford, he met his future wife Akshata Murthy, the daughter of the Indian billionaire businessman N. R. Narayana Murthy.”
He’s worth about £200 million.
Basically any public sector employee! They don’t care about lockdown ‘coz they’ve still got full pay and pensions.
I find it hard to believe those pensions will materialise, at this rate. There will be no money left.
Inflation and stock market collapse will take care of private pensions. The country will go bust and only give minimal handouts, not that state pensions are much at the moment.
You could have a punt on Bitcoin or Gold but chances are the central banks will come gunning for those too.
We will be expected to be grateful to our governments when they throw us a few scraps.
If you are wealthy I’d recommend buying farms. There’s a reason that is what Gates and Bezos are doing.
Hyperinflation will be their get out of jail card.
It will simply created and moved swiftly “off balance sheet”…
The liberal middle-class lefties are the ones who advocated for this pandemic bollix, but guess who’s most likely to wear masks (ruining their health), panic themselves into an early grave, take untested dangerous vaccines etc, yup it’s liberal middle-class lefties. Evolution works in mysterious ways, the longer the pandemic lasts the more liberal lefties will suffer & die…
I am middle class with a nice house and can work from home, but I also think the response to COVID is BS and am happy to take my chances, preferring to focus on exercise and healthy eating as protection against viruses.
What I want to know is why our politicians, institutions and media think economic collapse will be less lethal than COVID.
Because economic collapse has been inevitable and foreseen for a decade, and covid is the invented piece of theatre to provide the alibi for collapse and asset stripping.
So sick of the psychological warfare being waged by this country against its own citizens.
Ditto. The best we can hope for is to try to be as mentally and emotionally unafflicted by it as possible. I feel the next few months will require real resolve.
Boris Johnson and Chris Whitty have voted you down.
It doesn’t make any sense. It is kids getting infected, and it looks like their parents get it from them. Working from home will mean that parents who go to work will have to stay at home with an infectious kid, increasing their exposure..
Sense has never been relevant to government decisions.
Civil servants, doctors, journos and office workers of left leaning organisations like unions don’t want to commute again, let alone see customers.
That’s the real reason for such calls.
great news! The experimental gene therapy ‘vaccines’ come first in all these catagories – making them true winners..
Many aspects of Covid-19 and sunsequent vaccine development are unprecedented for a vaccine deployed for use in the general population. Some of these include the following.
1. First to use PEG (polyethylene glycol) in an injection (see text)
2. First to use mRNA vaccine technology against an infectious agent
3. First time Moderna has brought any product to market
4. First to have public health officials telling those receiving the vaccination to expect an adverse reaction
5. First to be implemented publicly with nothing more than preliminary efficacy data (see text)
6. First vaccine to make no clear claims about reducing infections, transmissibility, or deaths
7. First coronavirus vaccine ever in humans
8. first injection of genetically modified polynucleotides in the general population

This is a highly informative and interesting paper, and I would draw reader’s attention to the following list of 1sts for these vaccines highlighted on page 1, extracted here, highlighting the experimental nature of these vaccines
included in the go to bible of the amazing vaccines safety https://www.independentinformation.co.uk/resources/articles/covid-vaccines-safe-effective
I’m not sure that’s true. We’ve had flu vaccines for ages, and coronaviruses are very commonly present with flu. I welcome being corrected on this, but it seems to me that the plain old flu vaccine is a coronavirus vaccine.
flu is not a coronavirus.
You need to count man-flu
Common cold is often a coronavirus (or rhinovirus) and no vaccine has ever been developed
Flu is influenza virus.
Many candidate vaccines have been produced for coronaviruses.
All of them had very low efficacy, rapidly waning efficacy, serious side effects and/or caused enhanced disease on infection.
Waning efficacy, serious side effects and enhanced disease you say? that sounds familiar….
Yeah! They sound perfect why on earth weren’t they rolled out?
Idk, maybe it has something to do with cold viruses not sending appreciable number of people to the ICU ward until recently?
“coronaviruses are very commonly present with flu”
If it looks, smells and tastes like …
Coronaviruses (both main subtypes) and Influenza have almost nothing in common at all.
Orthomyxoviridae (of which Influenza is a member) are totally different in structure,makeup, mechanisms.
We’ve never made a Coronavirus vaccine mainly because we’ve never really needed to. The only ones we half made progress on (SARs) vanished long before trials.
There are 7 current human infecting CoVs:
229E, NL63 (alpha CoVs), OC43,HKU1 are common human infecting CoVs causing usually common cold symptoms. Bog standard circulating viruses
Mers, SARs1 and SARs2 (Beta CoVs) are potentially more troublesome.
But none are in any way related to Flu other than “virus with some RNA”
Brilliant! You must be the first person O’ve cone across in eighteen months to have realised that “Coronavirus” relates to a whole family of respiratory diseases. The antigen tests that have been used can infallibly distinguish Sars2 from all the other varieties of Coronavirus of course.
Isn’t it amazing how the antigen tests can distinguish between the coronavirus Sars2 and the five other families of Coronavirus that go around, with all the myriad substrains of each?
Can you remember a winter in which the Hell Service was not ‘overwhelmed’?
Winter takes the bastards by surprise. Every time.
And the media wails about it, and the government says it will increase investment.
And so on, ad nauseam.
Ive been told the Wah!NHS will have sufficient “investment” about the same time as the heat death of the universe.
No doubt – I expect it’s impossible for them to have too many Diversity Managers and the like – there will always be an urgent need for more…
It’s important in the face of a deadly pandemic that requires self imprisonment and hiding your face. Come on man get your priorities right, lack of diversity is more deadly than biological warfare!
Well that’s an improvement, thank god for Boris.
I think you’ll find they have a quicker fix; eliminate anyone vulnerable (or stupid) and likely to need care. I.e. remove the useless eaters.
It doesn’t take them by surprise.
It’s a big, clunky government bureaucracy so it doesn’t really work very well.
Everyone says it does because we have been conditioned from a young age to think the NHS is a wonderful, national treasure. But it isn’t. It’s. a huge, inefficient blob from which we expect too much.
You would have thought they’d expand hospital capacity over the decades to deal with winter flus instead of demolish it.
Doing more things faster is no substitute for doing the right things.
This policy sets us up to make all the same mistakes, with the same predictable, disastrous outcomes.
It’s one of the tenets of fascism – doing ‘something’, no matter how stupid or wrong-headed, is always preferred to doing nothing – even when doing nothing is quite clearly the correct course to take.
If this happens this winter, and not just in UK, it will happen from now on every winter.
I think its now safe to assume that the majority of ‘western’ nations will never emerge from this, they will be assimilated into a totalitarian ‘international super-state’ at least as far as bio-tech control is concerned. That will include many other nations around the world, especially on the pacific rim, and the US will try very hard to include most of central and south America. Some will stay outside, plus maybe a few in NE Europe and E Europe, Russia, some in Africa, probably India. They will come under intense economic pressure to conform. China has its own system which will be seperate but complimentary. Localised wars may reduce non-conformists, ie India/Pakistan and China.
We already see many people happy to embrace their new serfdom, delighted to be offered the latest jab to keep them safe, endless ‘tests’ etc. Slow degredation of immune systems., akin to the boiling frog, will lead to population reduction. Control over energy use to ‘save the planet’ will hasten the increase in death rates ( cold not heat being the real killer).
What of the few who resist? Well I know we are spending time trying to guess where might emerge as a refuge. It inevitably leads to destinations that were never on top of our preferred list, but may now be our last best hope.
Update of our experiences re covid in Florida. We are on the Gulf Coast, ‘red’ territory outside ‘blue’ Tampa; so it will be better than most of the Miami/Ft Lauderdale area. Its mainly face nappy free. But there are annoying exceptions. national shop/supermarket chains have staff masked ie entering Walmart a guy tries to get you to take a mask. Some towns/cities insist on mask use on local transport, ie Sarasota. Some more upmarket restaurants/bars have masked staff.
Less than 50k per week currently getting jabbed in Florida and declining, around southern gulf coast over 70% already vaxed. About 75k per week being tested with 3.4% currently ‘positive’. No run on health services, deaths in single figures.
De Santis is doing what he can to deflect Federal mandates etc, but he can only do so much against national chain employers, and the constant federal/media indoctrination process which is relentless.
After 2 weeks I am less positive than when we first came, Florida is resistant to some of the worst of the idiocy, but not all and its patchy. But its still 100% plus better than France!
“Some will stay outside, plus maybe a few in NE Europe and E Europe, Russia, some in Africa, probably India”
I keep thinking where to go but probably to my ultimate regret can’t bear to leave my home. I also can’t be sure who will be allowed to stay outside. At least in Nazi Germany the Jews had America to flee to.
” They will come under intense economic pressure to conform”.
Like the countries which didn’t have a central bank?.
Exactly the same!
So… how does this fit in with the “no lockdowns this winter” scenario?
And, as if on cue:
https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/warning-issued-over-christmas-lockdown-21950460
It’s so predictable you could set your watch by it.
We did, in August
Got to get COP26 out of the way first.
Lockdown: where middle class people stay at home and working class people bring them things (while miraculously avoiding death from a deadly virus)
And the elderly and vulnerable cease to be an expensive burden to society due to a combination of insufficient heating/food, mental health issues, and/or lack of medical care (supposed to have been provided by the sacred cow NHS).
.
Well, what a surprise! More scarmongering from SAGE, who are determined to hold onto their influence and won’t just fuck off and leave us alone.
The core message of course is that society should (no matter what the social and econmic cost) ‘Protect the NHS’. This is bollocks – the NHS is there to serve society, not the other way round, and this point needs to be reiterated every time the scaremongering starts.
Remember what they have done to you, your family, your neighbours and your countrymen. They told you they needed a few weeks to flatten the curve; they told you they needed you to wear useless masks (which they knew was a pointless exercise); they vigorously promoted asymptomatic transmission (another lie); they told you to stay at home to save lives (a claim utterly absurd on its face); through their propaganda they effectively accused you of murdering others if you did not comply; they made you and your friends and relatives go without contact; they made your elderly parents and grandparents suffer and die alone; they made your children and grandchildren suffer from isolation, depression, and more; they made your children and grandchildren wear masks and subject themselves to daily testing, and kept them in constant fear; they blackmailed you into taking a novel and experimental injection in order for you to participate fully in society…
And now, in October 2021, we are back to March 2020. The same dance between ‘advisors’ and politicians is taking place; the same gullible/corrupt media is dutifully playing its part in reporting the manufactured drama; and the same muddled masses appear to be none the wiser and utterly hypnotised.
Never forget what they have done to you.
And they set out to deliberately cause confrontations in society, and encouraged the public to bully anyone who didn’t appear to be ‘following the rules’.
“Asked about Johnson’s explanation that he was acting out of loyalty to an old friend, Collier said: “He might have gone to Eton with Guppy, but loyalty shouldn’t really extend to plotting to have a journalist beaten up. I’m just amazed that he acted in this way, that he didn’t have the gumption not to get involved with someone like Guppy.
“He went quite a way along the line of plotting to get me beat up. He didn’t dismiss it from what I gather … From reading the transcript, he was well prepared to help Guppy find my address and for Guppy to then get me assaulted.””

Anyone want to start another pointless on-line petition?
Or how about another e-mail to your local MP?
We all know the 4th and 5th jabs are coming for next year, and that the Covid ‘marshalls’ contracts go up to 2023.
I have recently contacted my MP to raise the issue of the way in which the government has stirred up hatred against the unmasked and unvaccinated, and asked for his views on this. Unsurprisingly, his response completely avoided the question.
Unless you are one of the few people with non-Covidian MPs it’s hopeless expecting them to do anything or answer difficult questions, but there’s no harm in letting them know that you are not happy about it – if enough people do that then it might eventually start to register with them. Likewise online petitions – if you expect those to achieve the stated aim you will be disappointed, but there is no harm in letting the government know that a large number of people are not happy about whatever it is.
Like you, MR, I can and will never forget; I am deeply entrenched in history, particularly but not exclusively the 20th Century. I do not view “Albion” through rose tinted spectacles, but the more I read hear and see of experiences from those I would describe as “extraordinarily ordinary people” as I get older and understand what my parents did in 1939-45, I get angrier and angrier; I am only now beginning to grasp what Solzhenitsyn wrote about in “The Gulag…” and his seething anger which to me leaps off the pages. Not attempting to compare the devastation of Russia from 1900 onwards with the UK 2019 onwards, but what those people must have felt after many many decades to being powerless I am starting to believe I understand; and it is not difficult to foresee massive upheaval in the UK in the medium term the longer this scam is allowed to go on….
Absolutely right, my friend.
Do not comply. Withdraw your consent to be governed. Throw sand in their gears.
“The experts are concerned that the pandemic has entered a highly unpredictable phase where small changes in public behaviour, or the effectiveness of vaccines, could have a large impact.”
Roughly translated means… The ‘experts’ are concerned the populace has entered a highly unpredictable phase and we need to get them back under control quickly.
They are trying to achieve lockdown by stealth it seems. One little step at a time.
It’s all part of setting the scene by getting a sufficient proportion of the public into a state where they are permanently shitting themselves. Note that the government has avoided setting thresholds, which makes it much more difficult for anyone to challenge / campaign against ‘Plan B’, and also allows them to impose it at 11pm via Twatter, to come into force at midnight (which they will quite likely do at some point).
I’d like to hope that the public are wise to the tactics now given how many times it’s been played out, but unfortunately I very much doubt if most of them have even noticed.
Same old, same old. These guys don’t give up do they? It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas so SAGE should get stuffed.
I see some professor is advocating everyone avoids using public transport, to keep infection down. Well, that’ll thrill the train and bus companies. Where I live, the buses are already mostly empty as they go by; although ironically I was in a large-ish city yesterday and the buses were running with unmasked passengers (despite the wear a mask signs plastered all over the windows).
Gotta get rid of these damn things, they invoke fear and terror, the mental state of this nation has been damaged now for years on end. People will wake up one day and find all the transport companies gone bust, the wailing will be biblical.
I the Midlands, rush hour trains are packed again (partly because they are still running a reduced timetable and sending extra-short trains). However, even when there is standing room only, masks are on fewer than half of passengers. It may be different in the more affluent areas as the middle-class woke virtue-signallers are the ones still shitting the bed.
Northern Rail have automated passive-aggressive muzzle announcements on some of their trains, which play after every station. On the commuter lines with lots of stops it’s nearly non-stop at some stages. Gets very annoying very quickly!
How about complaining? Or asking the driver to turn the announcement machine off?
Tried! Doesn’t work – same as with other announcements they cite the usual bollocks about safety, etc, etc.
I expect China is subsidising the public transport companies. One day you will go outside and see all the buses and trains filled with Chinese people.
If you mean international transport companies, I believe that is a part of the great plan.
Can one still get extra help from the tax office to pay for the extra bill as they are now at home all day?
I do not understand why these people need the money, they are not spending it on the commute or sandwiches and coffees for lunch!
Yeah, but I wasn’t paying for those things previously (unless you could shoe leather), if I have to work from home I’m providing my own heat, wear and tear, furniture, water etc. Plus the added benefit of paying for physio after becoming so immobile during the first 3 lockdowns
I’d rather be in the office or the field, but the company have to do what the Bozo at the top says, it’s not worth their risk to do otherwise.
I am trying to pushback as much as possible but this merry go round is starting to make me despair. Definitely more maskies in the supermarket today. I’m teetering on the edge of exploding in rage at them. Wake the f**k up!
People are not going to ‘wake up’. You can’t pour a quart into a pint pot. A great percentage of people are very thick. Some of them like to wear black masks, they think it makes them look mysterious and menacing, ninja warriors against Covid!
As they are so fond of encouraging people to ‘stay safe’ will the Church of England be using the churches as vaccination centres this Christmas? Midnight Mass Jabbing?
Yes, the increase in face nappies in shops has been really noticeable this week – many of which are worn below the nose, on the chin, etc! It’s all thoroughly depressing.
I can report the same in my middle class northern town. Including the ridiculous chin mask wearing, as a nod towards a half-baked sense of rising anxiety about something. People really make me sick sometimes!
Here in mask-mandated Wales I’ve just come back from an afternoon of Pumpkin picking. Massive field, packed with happy families (at least a crowd of a hundred when I went, and more coming as I left). No social distancing. Not a mask in sight. My daughter and I got lost for an hour in the Maize Maze, where we were brushing up against others, squeezing through the corn past total strangers. Again not a mask in sight within the maze, and nobody bothering to avoid anyone else. The people in these parts are simply no longer frightened.
I’m beginning to wonder whether the Welsh government retained the mask mandate because they knew that if they didn’t absolutely no-one here would wear a mask.
Today was an oasis of normality. Lovely.
Love stories like this. Does give you hope that not everyone has lost their minds.
That’s why I post them when I experience them. Sending out the positive energy. Dissipating the shadows.
Could just be the case that the bedwetters would never go somewhere like that as it’s “far too dangerous” and are hiding away at home!
That thought crossed my mind. But even if that’s so, it means there’s still a sizeable crowd of non-bedwetters – at least in my area.
Another positive story – last week I went to Chester. Not as crowded as it was on a Saturday in Days of Yore (i.e. pre 2020), but still busy. Unmasked folk outnumbered masks on the street. A few more mask in shops (mainly elderly and young women – a pattern I’ve seen since the start of the Madness).
Now I saw a sight I had not seen for two years – a busker juggling atop a precarious unicycle. The beautiful thing was – he was surrounded by a tightly packed, semi-circle of onlookers, maybe 30 or 40 in size, all unmasked and cheering him on. Again – people unafraid. And this time in the city centre.
I think I see the spell wearing off…and the Powers don’t notice it.
Also, what do we make of this article? – A Lockdown Sceptic, the former director of communicable diseases for Public Health Wales no less, featured on the BBC of all places!
“Speaking on BBC Radio Wales Breakfast, Dr Salmon said he was “certainly concerned about the pressure on the NHS” with staff shortages, high bed occupancy and Covid.
“However, one of my abiding hopes is that this doesn’t lead to a re-imposition of wider social restrictions,” he said.
“It doesn’t seem to me that they actually worked the first time, or at best marginally in the short term.”
He argued that such restrictions “cost a lot”, not only financially but in terms of mental illness, domestic abuse, addiction, and delays to health treatment. “I feel that there have to be other approaches to this,” he added.”

Sounds great. We went to a local non league semi pro football game today. No masks, no intrusive questions, nothing.
Just people watching football, chatting, having a beer/tea/ hot dog. It was lovely.
Went to our local amateur art exhibition today. Lots of old people with masks, freezing cold inside because all the doors and windows were open, no public to handle the milk jug (staff with gloves and visors only). Preposterous.
Same here with the masks. A couple of weeks back it was close to 50/50 in supermarket, yesterday back to 80% masked.
Son has been in Somerset for the term and he says masks are everywhere, everyone wears them in all indoor settings. On the train back to Kent there was a visible reduction in compliance the further East he traveled and the tube was only 10% masked.
I will not be pushed back into the nonsense of masks or any other nonsense that I have any control over. It’s over.
When you’ve made a career out of providing totally barmy advice, why would you change and admit that you’re wrong?
The redundant SAGE just needs to be made redundant.
It won’t make any difference.
I’d like to see a list of SAGE members who have herpes. It is a contagious disease and I think we should be aware of who they are, and they should be isolated forever.
There will be working from home, but it will be from homes in China and India
With kids being off school next week you’d expect a dip in ‘cases’ no?
I’m not convinced that it actually makes any difference whether or not kids are at school – more a case that during term time they are forever being tested!
Keep an eye on Leicester and Leicestershire as the schools were on half term this last week.
Where I am, they had a pop up tent in the high street today for passers-by to get their jabs/s; about two feet from where drug deals are done, where pretend ‘homeless’ demand cash with menaces, and where I’ve even seen a skank give a knee-trembler to some poor drunk sod. That corner is covered with p1ss and sh1t, and not just from dogs. Strangely enough, there was no-one to be seen availing themselves of the great offer.
Our local council’s weekly email newsletter has also promised door-knockers coming round to ‘low [jab] uptake areas’ (my ward is second lowest in the area: yay!), so the mister and I spent a few minutes this morning refreshing ourselves with the local stats to argue the toss with them. Disappointingly, so far the only knockers today have been the Amazon guy and the postie.
In a city near me (which I try to avoid going to unless there’s a good reason, because it’s a depressing dump), there was a flu jab tent in the main shopping area a few weeks ago. Never seen that before (or in any other city centre).
I know, right? There’ll soon be maternity tents in Sainsbury carparks, and brain surgery tents on station platforms.
In fact Amazon intends to be our health service. Subscription model a bit like Prime. They already have all of our medical records..
50% of the workforce can work from home – bullshit. Maybe if most of them are furloughed again.
Yes, quite – either furloughed or supposedly working but unable to actually do their jobs effectively or at all (see DVLA for an extreme example).
Really – retail, food, manufacturing, trades, drivers, care, hospitality, sport, front-line health, front-line security. In fact almost all people who do useful jobs.
I think SAGE should fuck the fuck right off.
I’ll raise you a fuck the fuck right off!
Off topic but relevant generally I hope.
Anyone noticed how the BBC doesn’t have its daily evening covid update when cases are falling? I know cases are irrelevant but when they rise they plaster the figures all over the place!
I bet they are gutted they’re falling. No doubt testing ramped up next week or cycles for the PCR turned up a bit to get a few more false positives.
What the Beeb loves is death. Corpses. Stiffs. Sadlidieds. No corpses, no fun.
And they never have actual debate about covid restrictions, or vaccine efficacy.
Whats with the SAGE tells government, aren’t they advisors and the government tells them if they will implement their dodgy models or not?
We’ve seen this since the beginning – if the government doesn’t do what SAGE wants they start shit-stirring in the media until the government gives in and implements whatever restrictions SAGE are demanding.
Then again, the government must be happy with this – otherwise they would stick ‘no talking direct to the media’ clauses in the contracts.
“small changes in public behaviour, or the effectiveness of vaccines, could have a large impact.”
How convenient if your plan is to decimate the West and hand remaining resources to the CCP. Also proves there was zero point to the vaccines but people continue to take them. Have a listen to that lovely, benign CCP.

But this is definitely not coercion to get a medical treatment. Absolutely, definitely not…
Times muppets. Put Oliver Wright on the story (if he hasn’t been bought off).
I have no idea whether it’s true that the old Kung Flu or the pseudo-vaccines can cause low sperm counts – but lap-dancing a laptop, as the clown in the photo is doing, almost certainly will.
Yes sage, by all means, let’s now destroy the rest of the economy that hasn’t been destroyed yet. I guess that is the sage/wise advice.
Could SAGE finally be gaining a sense of self-awareness, of just how disconnected from reality they’ve been?
I was watching Toby Young on Talk Radio. He made the point that lockdown sceptics had been largelly kept off the air because OFCOM would not allow views on the MSM that contradicted the official Government line. However the same rule does not appear to apply to the zero covid zealots who are regularly given a platform to contradict Government policy ( i.e we must learn to live with the virus), lobby for Plan B and further lockdowns. Isn’t it about time OFCOM revisited its guidance?
They won’t. OFCOM was instructed to do that – part of the pandemic/lockdowns narrative.
The Covid passport was always the end objective
Even if I wanted to work from home (which I don’t) I couldn’t, given how intermittent my internet has been in recent weeks. It goes off for hours at totally random times of the day and night. Apparently lots of other people having the same problem locally, and situation getting worse not better. If I had to work from home and my job depended on me having consistent internet, I’d be screwed. I was wondering if anyone else has noticed anything strange going on with internet access lately?
Well, judging by the comments here, the government can certainly push our buttons and trigger our limbic systems! I’m starting to wonder if it might be best to ignore what they say completely and withdraw our attention and energy from them?
