If you would like to know why Sunak decided to leave post, sorry, I mean call a general election despite it being completely obvious the Tories would lose by a landslide, IMO the suggestion he didn’t want to be a wartime leader is unlikely to be the nub of it. You only need consider all the opportunity cost his billionaire family are suffering due to the apparent commitments and loyalty to Britain.

Europe is going down the pan and now having put in some time at the top as a national leader he can manoeuvre himself into favour with BRICS nations and reap the rewards of shifting global alliances.

Laura Perrins and the housing crisis. Apparently Kneel is going to invent a new category of building land – the grey belt. This will be green belt deemed ‘ugly’ and therfore legitimate for new builds. How conveniently subjective.
I no longer know what‘s true… is this? If it is, who decides?
The Top Gear Factor
It does seem that Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) are a strong contender for the first major problem issue to confront the new Labour Government. The Zero Emissions Mandate (ZEM) currently remains in force and will very soon kick in and hand out big fines to the motor industry, are the government really going to go ahead and kick the important motor industry in the teeth with these ZEM fines?
Blinkered net-zero politicians seem to see nothing but a golden future of blissful travel in lovely net-zero BEVs but reality is fast tarnishing this Utopian dream. What is the problem with BEVs? well here are a couple of video clips that start to give a few pointers;

In the UK car leasing companies are the major buyer of new cars and depreciation costs are a key item they consider in setting lease costs. It is understood that the lease industry has massively underestimated the high levels of depreciation on BEVs this will lead to significant financial losses. Subsequently, new lease deals for BEVs will be much more expensive or have to be heavily subsidised. There is a video clip on this topic;

All in all tricky times ahead for net-zero politicians and a rough ride for ordinary motorists.
The intention is to force ordinary people off the roads entirely.
Many of Labour’s incoming problems are going to arrive as a result of the law of unintended consequences.
Also known as: “not thinking things through”.
Yes.
And yet in Labour’s document from October 2023
Driving a Growing Economy: Labour’s Plan for the Automotive Sector
It clearly states;
”Labour knows how important cars are – both for our economy and society.
Growing up in Sunderland, home of the Nissan factory, cars are in my blood. Many of the friends I went to school with still work in that factory today. I know what the automotive industry means to local economies – good work and wages.
But more than that, working families deserve the freedom and pride of having a reliable car in their driveway. Labour’s mission is to ensure electric cars, powered by cheap home-grown energy, don’t become the preserve of the wealthy. We believe everyone should feel the benefit of the transition to electric vehicles and cheaper running costs, be that the family car or the company van.”
Surely that nice, straight talking MR Starmer is not going to go back on that commitment?
NET Zero has nothing to do with the Labour Party.
It’s a World Wide Religion.
Worldwide… ish, they don’t seem to be fully committed in India or China, for instance.
Thanks for the reminder.
This solves the pot-hole isue – no cars, no pot-holes to repair.
Seriously, I do believe that is what is behind the state of our roads.
Unintended?
Surely an 11th reason is the difficulty in dealing with EV fires? I know they are not that frequent (yet) but they are very difficult to put out.
I also predict fly tipped/dumped EVs having “gone on fire” in various parts of the countryside.

A brief overview of some of Kneel’s “heavyweights” and their views on women.
Heavyweight Mastermind and racist – never leaves home without his race card – Lammy has this startling piece of $cience…
“A cervix, I understand, is something you can have following various procedures and hormone treatments”
Obviously Lammy doesn’t understand the difference between a cervix and a vagina.
We have definitely been gifted what the politicos like to call “a Cabinet of all the talents.”
FFS.
Please excuse my ignorance – I live deep in the countryside where most things haven’t changed for decades, but about adopting a sex other than your own. Why is it always men trying to be women? Why do we never hear about women who have brushed on a burnt cork 5 ‘o’ clock shadow and strapped on a penis, pushing their way into men’s loos and changing spaces?
I know what you mean. I have discussed the subject of transgender at length over past months here on DS so without wishing to be rude I am not going to try to rehash what I have stated previously.
Speaking as a man I would welcome the laugh.
Also a genuine inquiry, are strap-ons inflatable or are they always pumped up? If the latter it would rather make wearing normal trousers a little embarassing, or could we expect the codpiece to become a new trans fashion.
You’re correct to wonder that. Where are all the FtM trans folk hitting the headlines, cheating in men’s sports or being found guilty of sex crimes against men, or just generally behaving like perverts? It is indeed very much one sided. But there’s people on here that would deny there’s any threat from the trans ideology to females and their sex-based rights because there’s more FtM than MtF trans people, apparently. Make it make sense! lol So one naturally follows the other and the evidence, showing the disproportionate amount of crimes and transgressions committed by actual men ( MtF ) are completely ignored.
And what we’re regularly reading in the news is just ”media distortion”, they say. It’s all in our heads and deranged and/or predatory men parodying women are not the problem because *we*, the women, are allegedly to blame for the way society is. Yes, we’re back to plain old misogyny, in all of its many forms. Where victims are blamed and crimes, injustices and the very real threat to females are minimized and glossed over.
I’ve been on this earth for many, many years and thought I’d seen it all. Men have always told us females what we can and can’t do (Mr B knows better) and it had got to a point where it was accepted we had a voice and rights to female only spaces. Seems now men only have to put on a frock and they’re back telling us what we can and can’t do! Not only that the deluded middle class female morons with nothing better to do with their time are fully on board. Plus they’re fully on board with castrating children and ruining their lives too.
Yes, absolutely. Just a quick look at the female Labour MPs shows us how dire things are. But I think it’s basically a cult mentality, much like all the other government-pushed ‘Woke’ agendas, and so trying to glean any sort of rationale or understand these people is just a futile endeavour, in my opinion. With regards to the politicians though, I think it’s a simple case of them wanting to appease these particular voters, of which the Trantifa mafia and the Muslims make up a sizeable portion, so offend or alienate them at your detriment, is probably their philosophy. Therefore these two camps in particular will never deplete their victimhood status in society. These whiney, demanding people take precedence over the natives and their very genuine concerns and needs now, it seems. Patriots get labelled as ‘right-wing extremist’ and go to the bottom of the pile.
Agreed, ‘gotta keep them votes’ grrr
The Telegraph, January 2023:
‘In 2009-10, when just 77 people were referred to the Tavistock’s Gender Identity Development Service, those born male outnumbered females by 56 per cent to 44 per cent. A decade later, 74 per cent of those referred were born female. Over the past five years, referrals of young women have increased at twice the rate of men. That has driven a huge growth in referrals. In 2021-22 the NHS reported more than 5,000 referrals to GIDS, up 64-fold in just over a decade.
To some parents, such a dramatic rise in young girls seeking treatment which could ultimately lead to irreversible sex-change surgery requires explaining. “The patient cohort is basically 15-year-old girls and that’s brand new,” says a spokesman from the For Women Scotland campaign group. “We don’t know why. No one knows.”
Bell has his suspicions. “It must be clear,” he writes in his 2020 essay, First, Do No Harm, “that such a rapid escalation of cases, the increase in natal females … cannot be explained by individual factors alone, nor is it likely to be caused by a large number of individuals feeling free to ‘come out’ in this new ‘liberal’ atmosphere. It must be derived from socio-cultural forces.” Forces which, on the face of it, appear to have taken a grip at many schools.’
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/01/21/why-teenage-girls-front-line-trans-war/#:~:text=Significantly%2C%20teachers%20who%20said%20the,epicentre%20of%20the%20transgender%20phenomenon.
I have thought that teenage girls wanting to “transition” is a response to several factors but I have not seen pornography mentioned. I feel that the ubiquity of it and the way women are abased by it must be a factor.
“The patient cohort is basically 15-year-old girls and that’s brand new,” says a spokesman from the For Women Scotland campaign group. “We don’t know why. No one knows.”
For goodness sake, this is a rerun of the self harm problem! When our daughter was a teenager at school a couple of girls were self harming. It seemed to be mostly girls but boys sometimes self harmed too. Teenage years are tumultuous times and persuading them that taking tablets will solve all their problems is evil, especially if the long and short term consequences aren’t explained properly.
I think this is 100% true. For the most part, the media seems to have the image of ‘trans’ as a bloke with stubble in a dress, whereas if you look in a school/college it’s a completely different situation. They’re all choosing weird American boy names, so it’s pretty clear where the influence is coming from. Perhaps the image is partly because older ‘trans’ people are M to F, and these people have more power/authority. Where are all the older women who would be ‘trans’ (had it been a thing in their day)? Lesbians?
For sport it’s obvious – women pretending to be men don’t win anything so nobody cares about them.
Wrt to female spaces, on average I would think females would find the presence of males more threatening and distasteful than women “invading” male spaces – just to do with the sexes and how we’re different, on average.
For a parent or close friend or relative of someone of either sex who is trying to “change”, I would think it’s equally distressing and tragic.
Like most men, they do whatever they do, and don’t talk about it?
Well, you’re protected from things where you are as there are indeed ladies who go the whole 9 yards to become ‘men’… mostly, they then pretend to be gay which, of course, makes them straight.
You don’t hear so much, I suppose, because most men aren’t threatened by a woman with a roll of forearm flesh hanging from her groin, or by their sporting prowess in competition.
For more than that, you’ll have to do your own research I’m afraid; prepare to be shocked.
It seems to me that a large part of the problems that the CONs face going forward is that they are a ‘broad church’ and with a Left, Right and Centre they are actually three parties under one umbrella. Until they sort that out they will remain unelectable… the LABs have similar structural issues, of course.
Most failed asylum seekers set for deportation are released instead, report finds” – A new report reveals that drug use by migrants at one of the U.K.’s main detention centres is so widespread that detainees openly smoke cannabis, says the BBC.
Isn’t cannabis openly smoked everywhere these days? When I was a gal in the good old days, it was cigarette smoke that wafted gently on the air (just about everywhere, too). Now it’s the smell of weed. Certainly walking the streets of a town, or outside a pub, you can smell it, but I have also noticed, walking around our village, that you can smell it floating across gardens and out of windows. I am willing to bet it is either cheaper, or on a par with tobacco these days. If I was still a smoker I would probably also indulge – it might make the world seem a better place briefly!
Christ on a bike, does Starmer really need to be told by Blair that ‘the public want immigration controls’? Sweet Jesus…
Good to see at last some articles questioning the farcical Lucy Letby trial. I have often wondered if there was something more than incompetence behind this bizarre conviction.
I find it difficult to read any more articles about that poor girl because it all but brings me to tears. How she copes is beyond me. There is clearly something decidedly evil going on here but I find it difficult to believe she is in any way guilty.
Very sadly, even if she was released her life will be a misery. Poor lass.
People condemning Russia but not Israel are hypocrites, says Humza Yousaf
What’s really going on?
The thickest man in Scotland thinks the invasion of Ukraine is not the same as Hamas’s invasion of Israel.
He must be one of the Russia commentators on here……
Meanwhile Russia is losing the war, occupying less of Ukraine now than it did in the days after its invasion.
The desperate measure of mass aerial bombardment gives the game away.
Memorials in Dresden show us where that ends
‘Ukraine will produce thousands of long-range drones capable of deep strikes into Russia in 2024 and already has up to 10 companies making drones that can reach Moscow and St Petersburg’
Reuters
And who can blame them?
Russia has been obliged to chair a UN security council meeting where it was condemned over the hospital strike.
France and Ecuador asked for the session, which Russia led as the current holder of the council’s rotating presidency, putting its ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia, on the receiving end of the criticism.
The US ambassador, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, told colleagues that they were there “because Russia, a permanent member of the security council, current rotational president of the security council attacked a childrens hospital … Even uttering that phrase sends a chill down my spine.”
The British ambassador, Barbara Woodward, called it “cowardly depravity”.
Ecuador’s envoy, José De La Gasca, described it as “particularly intolerable”.
(Russian ambassador) Nebenzia dismissed that and other criticisms as “verbal gymnastics”
In fact, it’s a war crime and anyone condoning that is complicit.
Whatever.
You couldn’t make it up, but apparently they did.
Watch it Hux, you might get another slapped wrist for using smileys.
Damn. I didn’t think of that. Thanks for the reminder.

Presumably the guy with the blood on his back was in the middle of having his kidney removed when the Russians struck.

‘The kidney doctor raced to the basement of a children’s hospital in Kyiv to check up on some of her young patients who had been moved there for safety during an air raid siren.
Svitlana Lukyanchuk, 30, then risked her life to go back upstairs to a treatment centre where five more infants were hooked up to dialysis machines unable to be taken to the shelter.
Despite the danger, she stayed with them to make sure their life-saving procedures could continue even as the ground shook to the sound of Russian missiles striking the capital.
Suddenly, one of the munitions hit the hospital, shattering the windows of the dialysis centre and killing the paediatrician, who was thrown off her feet by the force of the blast.
She was one of two adults to die’
‘(The image) shows markings on another remnant of the missile that hit the hospital. These markings include the numbers “840708036”, “~234452”, and “45 • 14” . Similar markings using this same format are also visible on a remnant from a (Russian) Kh-101 that was descibes as having been shot down over Ukraine on December 29, 2023.’

The accounts on X were designed to spread pro-Russia stories but were automated “bots” – not real people.
In court documents made public Tuesday the US justice department said the operation was devised by a deputy editor at Kremlin-owned RT, formerly Russia Today.

“Russia intended to use this bot farm to disseminate AI-generated foreign disinformation, scaling their work with the assistance of AI to undermine our partners in Ukraine and influence geopolitical narratives favorable to the Russian government,”

Fair warning. You have to be joking.
You can believe any of the propaganda you want, it is a free world, but I suspect many here are a lot more discerning.
They might just remember a crisis actor turning up in repeated videos of hospitals that had been bombed in Mariupol, sometimes pregnant, sometimes not.
Question. What is one of the first things you do when faced with a humanitarian disaster like this?
Multi choice answer:
Call in the emergency services and heavy lifting equipment to rescue possible survivors.
Keep people and press away to prevent hampering rescue operations.
Invite dozens of foreign diplomats to witness the disaster for them selves.
I am not sure what you are referring to here but CNN reported (https://edition.cnn.com/2024/07/08/europe/ukraine-russian-strike-childrens-hospital-intl/index.html) that ‘only’ two people died at the Kiev children’s hospital out of at least 600 located there.
The main building was not even hit but damaged by a nearby blast. Russian investigations have determined the damage was caused by a NASAMS (National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System, also known as Norwegian Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System) provided by Norway to Ukraine.
Quote from X: For CNN and the rest of the western media, what really happened does not matter, just how this incident can be used to prolong the conflict further and cause more death and destruction.
The one thing that Ukraine has excelled at since the manufactured Bucha incident, the Snake Island “massacre” and the Ghost of Kiev, is spin.
Of course it helps having having a totally complicit western MSM and tub-thumping politicians.
It is a shame the UK has nobody like Robert kennedy Jnr who recently pointed out the inconvenient “In World War II, German soldiers were looking for Americans to surrender to because they knew we would treat them humanely, unlike the Russians or the French. Today, American-led units in Ukraine carry out mass executions of captured Russian prisoners of war. This is a war crime. There should be no “American-led units” in Ukraine at all,”
It is a war crime.
‘The building where we conducted dialysis for children with kidney failure or acute intoxication is ruined entirely,” the hospital’s director general, Volodymyr Zhovnir, told reporters, estimating the overall damage at $2.5 million.
‘Pediatric surgeon Oleh Holubchenko told The Associated Press he was operating on a baby with congenital face defects and that he and his team decided to continue despite the blast of air sirens. “We couldn’t stop halfway through,”
The missile strike’s shock wave sent him hurtling across the operating theater. Shrapnel caused him minor injuries and pierced the infant’s ventilator. The baby, still with an open wound, had to be transported to another Kyiv hospital, where they finished the surgery.’
‘Danielle Bell, the head of a United Nations team tracking human rights violations in Ukraine, said at least two people were killed at the hospital and about 50 were injured, including seven children. There would have been a lot more casualties if patients hadn’t been taken to a bunker when air raid sirens first sounded, she added.’
‘Social media footage as well as a 3D model of the missile, all point to the munition being a Russian Kh-101 cruise missile. The analysis is in line with the view of experts, including Fabian Hoffman, a doctoral research fellow at the University of Oslo who specialises in missile technology.
Similarly, War on Fakes — widely regarded as a Russian propaganda and disinformation outlet — claimed in a visual analysis that given the length-to-width ratio of the missile, it could not be a Kh-101, but instead an AIM-120 fired from a Ukrainian NASAMS battery. The AIM-120 is produced by the U.S. defence contractor Raytheon Company.
The claim that the missile was an AIM-120 ignores the jet engine prominently hanging from the empennage of the missile that hit the hospital.
This highly visible feature is present on the Kh-101, but not on the AIM-120.
Furthermore, the wings in the mid-section of the missile that hit the hospital are a mismatch for those on an AIM-120…….a yellow panel with the numbers “2983” (is a) match with what the same identification manual describes as the Kh-101’s engine cover.’
Just to illustrate how Ukraine does not care in the slightest about any civilian casualties in its conflict with Russia, here is a Russian Defence Ministry statement from yesterday:
Last night, the Kiev regime attempted to launch terrorist attacks using fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles on the territory of the Russian Federation. Russia’s alerted air defence systems shot down and intercepted three UAVs over Belgorod region, seven UAVs over Kursk region, two UAVs over Voronezh region, 21 UAVs over Rostov region, and five UAVs over Astrakhan region.
And here is a very interesting report from two days ago on Ukraine’s use of illegal chemical weapons
(https://eng.mil.ru/en/special_operation/news/more.htm?id=12519584@egNews).
The Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation continues to record cases of violation by Ukraine of fundamental international instruments, such as the Chemical Weapons Convention.
It should be noted that the Russian Defence Ministry’s latest briefing on violations by the U.S. and Ukraine of their obligations in the field of non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) has been heard by the expert community.
Relevant comments were posted on the European and American media, as well as on information portals in the Asia-Pacific region.
Special emphasis has been placed on expanding military biological research in Africa. The Daily Telegraph notes that ‘As Russia managed to halt biological warfare programs in Ukraine’s territory, the Pentagon is forced to transfer incomplete research from Ukrainian projects to other regions’…
In addition, a number of publications have expressed concern about Ukraine’s creating a ‘dirty bomb’ using radiochemicals. The import of spent nuclear fuel and by-products of hazardous chemical plants continues through Poland and Romania, leading to Ukraine’s becoming a high-risk waste dump. This process is overseen by Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andrei Ermak and sponsored by the Soros Foundation.
…
During the special military operation, more than 400 cases of non-lethal toxic chemicals used by the Ukrainian side were registered, most of them officially confirmed by the Russian Ministry of Defence accredited laboratory.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) regularly uses riot-control chemical agents: gas grenades with a CS substance manufactured by the United States, Ukrainian hand grenades with chemically irritating agents marked Teren-6, and improvised chemical munitions. According to Ukrainian prisoners of war, assault groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are equipped with such grenades.
There have been numerous cases of the use of chloropicrin irritant by the Ukrainian side, often mixed with chloroacetophenone. Similar incidents occurred near Donetsk, Bogdanovka, Gorlovka, Kremennaya, Artyomovsk.
Ukraine, with the complicity of Western countries, does not limit itself to using non-lethal chemical agents by actively using scheduled chemicals such as BZ, prussic acid, and chlorine cyanide.
…
Moreover, Ukrainian nationalists have repeatedly attempted to destroy chemically hazardous objects in the territories of Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics thereby threatening the region’s civilian population with chemical damage.
…
A laboratory with chemical equipment was detected in an industrial zone on the ground floor of the destroyed building in one of the locations near Avdeyevka during engineering reconnaissance. A mobile diagnostic team of Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Protection Troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was sent to inspect the premises and conduct a rapid analysis.
They found a semi-industrial rotary evaporator, a filtering exhaust system, chemical reactors, carbon dioxide bottles, and shelving systems with laboratory dishes and reagents in the laboratory. In addition, personal protective kits – gas masks, including those manufactured in the United States, and skin protections (a Polish-made protective suit), were detected.
Analysis of the containers showed the presence of sulphuric acid and sodium cyanide suggesting the use of found equipment for the production of toxic substances. Afterwards, wipe sampling from the laboratory equipment and exhaust system was made in accordance with the requirements of the OPCW and delivered to the chemical analytical laboratory of the Russian Defence Ministry for in-depth analysis.
Analytical studies in the laboratory conditions showed the presence of sodium cyanide, sulphuric acid, and trace amounts of cyanide in the samples. The presence of these chemicals clearly indicates that the laboratory found was producing toxic systemic agents.
…
Thus, in May 2024, munitions were dropped from Ukrainian UAVs in Semyonovka, 10 km from Avdeyevka of the Donetsk People’s Republic. According to witnesses, affected rural residents showed symptoms of being exposed to prussic acid: respiratory difficulty, vomiting, and the taste of bitter almonds.
Another case of the AFU’s using of prussic acid was recorded in early June 2024. After an UAV attack against the Russian positions in Graivoronsk district of Belgorod region, fragments of munitions were detected, the laboratory results of which confirmed the use of the mentioned toxic chemical.
…
According to the available information, the U.S. and Germany, together with Ukraine and the OPCW’s Technical Secretariat, are preparing to launch a special mission to investigate the so-called use of chemical weapons in Ukraine, with a view to pressing charges against Russia. One of the so-called ‘independent’ states is to initiate investigations and plant evidence that Russia used toxic chemicals during the special military operation. Americans have already committed some $400,000 to this end. At the same time, the OPCW has received instructions from its Western curators not to respond to the Russian Federation’s allegations of Ukraine’s violating the Convention’s provisions.
Russia is, as you suggest, using illegal chemical weapons in Ukraine in breach of its international commitments.
‘On 2 May 2023, state-controlled Channel 1 reported that Russia has used riot control agent (RCA) as a method of warfare, thus contravening the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). Is this the thin end of a wedge, or does it merely represent localised attempts to break a stalemate?
The footage was shown as part of an article that claimed Russian forces had retaken the village of Spirne.
The battalion commander, identified as Vladislav Vodolazsky, claimed to have used drones to drop K-51 grenades containing cheryomukha (a type of cherry blossom) onto Ukrainian positions. He referred to the chemical as tear gas, saying it was used to ‘smoke out’ the Ukrainians.’

From: John O’Looney Sent: 09 July 2024 15:59 To: (redacted, a list of a dozen fellow BIE members who have made concerning pathological observations in the deceased with whom they’re entrusted; plus a few technical experts who’ve been outspoken about the injections)
Subject: The merit of Truth
Dear Ms. Caney,
I am writing to you after speaking for some time to a growing number of embalmer’s and funeral professionals as well as Major Tom Haviland in the US regarding his 2024 Worldwide Blood Clot Survey.
With no real surprise on my part Karen, I am told by BIE members that you refused to send out this anonymous survey to your BIE members and frankly I can think of no reason why that doesn’t look very unfavourably on you personally as the truth comes out.
I am also told you have actively threatened any BIE member from raising concerns with disciplinary action and I have indeed seen my name mentioned in your Bi monthly magazine. (how stupid frankly)
I know its been raised in your BIE meetings by BIE members – I’ve spoken to them personally and that number grows alongside the excess death rate.
Why do you do that Karen I wonder?
Excess deaths are running at a record high here in the UK, young people especially are “dying suddenly” in record numbers and inside them I am finding a pathology I have never seen before – especially among the young, I place them into coffins.
So many excess deaths that the ONS have even resorted to reformulating the way they count them to try and hide it.
I have been finding unnatural white fibrous clots for some time now as have many others, a pathology I’ve never seen before. I’ve seen them only since mid 2021 a few months after the rollout of the covid jabs and I continue to find them regularly to this day – everyone one of these deceased has been covid vaccinated.
I know, because the families tell me and they are clearly all now deceased and full of these clots.
One of my best qualities Karen is honesty – youll love it.
Karen let me be totally honest with you.
my personal opinion of you is this – you can gas light, you can say you have “little spare time” to share this survey and deny seeing them during the course of your work.
It doesn’t change what is coming.
I’ve seen your rather desperate email responses and it is evidence now.
Because the reality is now that these clots are now the very worst kept secret in the funeral industry and as one funeral director said to me only this week, “they are all pulling their ladders up and they are scared” another tapped me on the shoulder and thanked me at the local crematorium today for telling the truth.
They all openly talk about it now.
But the reality is that as the truth emerges it will transpire that there are people actively engaging in hiding this truth and for example refusing to circulate this survey to BIE members for their professional opinion you potentially add yourself to their ranks.
Nothing to hide nothing to fear surely? after all you didn’t roll these jabs out did you Karen.
If there really is no substance to it then let your BIE members have their say anonymously so we can all see if there is a pattern there that others alongside the people included in this email are seeing.
Be on the right side of history.
Thank fully now a growing number of funeral professionals which include a growing number of your own BIE members have reached out to me saying they are also finding this new pathology inside deceased regularly and that they are all vaccinated and they reach out to me in fear and desperation as you openly threaten them not to say a word.
We have long email exchanges and the numbers in this group grows.
There is more content to the letter and John O’Looney doesn’t hold back.
Well done Sir.
That is interesting, thanks and particularly when I’d asked BIE whether they had reports of clots from their Members. These are the answers Karen Caney provided.
26/09/2022 – “We have heard of these reports both online and in the press. However, we are not getting reports of this from our Members.”
29/09/2022 – “It would be something that we would expect to hear about. Many of our Members are in regular contact. We have meetings and education events when this sort of thing would have come up in conversation.”
07/12/2022 – “The unusual clots mentioned are not something we would find regularly at all. Because of the time between death and embalming taking place in the UK, it is common to find ordinary blood clots. However, this has been the case as long as I can remember and not linked with Covid at all.”
14/03/2024 – “I have had dozens of similar queries over the last couple of years. I have talked to many working embalmers over the period of time mentioned and absolutely none of them have come across any new unusual clots at all.”
So, who do we believe? Karen Caney or John O’Looney who let’s not forget the authorities tried to murder with a Remedisvir cocktail when he was seriously ill in hospital a couple of years ago.
Good question and the reality could be somewhere in between. The excess deaths aren’t in doubt though and from my perspective, neither are the comments I have heard from reliable people of unexpected post-vaccination clots.

Initially, I got caught up in the frenzied media massacre of Lucy Letby – and to my shame, believed her accusers – but now I think there has been a gross miscarriage of justice. The rancid, failing NHS needed a scapegoat and Lucy was the person chosen to shoulder the blame for the catalogue of medical / clinical and administrative errors that occurred during those particular clinical episodes- and unfortunately, similar episodes pervade the NHS all too often with varying degrees of impact.
The following links are thought provoking:

Me now? I’m on team Lucy.
Much appreciated.
If nothing else, the State’s lawfare treatment of Julian Assange and, even more pointedly, Tommy Robinson, gives one little reason to trust the judicial process in such a case.
Very, very true.
The Justice System needed to ‘get up to standard’, so it can take over from the politicians.
Incompetent medics.
Since my eyes were opened when the Scamdemic started I have found myself coming across more and more useless and downright dangerous people employed within the NHS.
God are we in a mess.
‘Your life in their hands’ eh? What a dangerous farce. It’s very sad because I know there are some good, decent people who work in the NHS. I just hope to god they are not overwhelmed by the dangerous incompetents who make up some of the workforce.
My personal experience these last four years both personal and concerning my father is that the split is 60 – 40 good / bad people working in the NHS.
Doctors are worse and they split 50 – 50. I have twice been a victim of contraindications with drugs and so has my father. Far too many doctors work to the CGAF philosophy.
Is that just the three days a week when they are working?
Yes.
Actually…54% of GP’s in this country work three days a week or less. And who masterminded this state of affairs?
T. Bliar.
It’s true in the private sector as well, but at least some of them go bust, so the ‘useful people’ can be recycled.
You’re probably right with those estimates. I’ve always said I’ve seen the best and the worst of the NHS. I’m sure it’s also a postcode lottery, living in a ‘nice’ area gets better attention, although as I can attest age comes into it too with surgeons not giving a toss at ‘tidy’ results for us oldies. As for contraindications, yup had that problem too which is why if I have to have a prescription I read the insert and online contra’s as doctors and pharmacists sure don’t.
At least the right people are now in charge.
If we are having to ‘crash and start again’, we might as well do it properly.
I’m not just talking about the UK: it’s the West in general.
It Sunak had held on to the end of the year would Farage have taken the decision to run for Reform and head up the party? After all before Sunak’s announcement Farage had said that in the latter part of the year he would be in the US concentrating on the Election there. No Farage would surely have meant far, far less votes for Reform in a late year UK election. Of course the Tories would still have lost but I suspect the result would have been much closer than it turned out. After all the pre election polls were showing a 20% lead for Labour but on the night the final Labour lead over Sunak turned out to be around 11%.
I expect Reform had plans for every eventuality, well, nearly all.
For Farage to ‘work his constituency’ for months, with the possibility of a repeat of South Thanet, where his constituency was bombarded by the Establishment, would have been a lot of effort, with no reward.
And, if the GE had been called at the last moment, he would have missed the opportunity to strengthen ties to the probable next POTUS.
Sometimes, things fall into place. Reform has Time on its side, so let the ‘Conservative Party In Name Only’ conclude that it is well named, so members can determine their own future, individually.
Triggernometry’s conversation with Rory Stewart showed that the party was role playing, not governing, and the Spectator’s conversation with Steve Baker showed that he attempted to correct that, but the many were unable, or just unwilling, to collaborate.
So, £290m up the Swanee… I wonder if they’re any more careful with their own money?
I wonder if they get regular financial aid from the U.K.? If so, that should be stopped forthwith.
