Labour’s manifesto promised we would have a zero carbon electricity system by 2030. It is a pledge that Ed Miliband has been making for years, not least in his party conference speech last year, and it was also one of Labour’s ‘Five Missions for a Better Britain’ policy pledge launched last year.
It would therefore be reasonable to presume that Miliband actually had a detailed plan of how he would achieve this and how much it might all cost. It came as a surprise then when, shortly after taking office, he asked the National Energy System Operator, NESO, to provide practical advice on achieving his target.
NESO has now responded with some bad news.
Many energy experts have long argued that a zero carbon grid simply is not possible at these timescales, because you cannot run a grid predominantly on intermittent renewable energy. It turns out that NESO, whose job is to make sure that Britain has the electricity it needs every second of the day, agrees.
Their report sent to Ed Miliband emphasises that we will need to retain a full fleet of gas power plants, to fire up when the wind does not blow and the sun does not shine:
This really is a damning indictment not only of Labour’s energy policy, but also of the whole Net Zero agenda and its reliance on intermittent renewable energy.
Even though NESO says that gas power will only supply 5% of our electricity, there will be many days when we will still need it for half or more. And keeping a fleet of gas plants on standby creates problems of its own. They will need to be fully manned, maintained and ready to fire up as and when needed, all of which will cost a lot of money. With these plants standing idle most of the time, operators will demand billions in standby payments, all of which will end up on our energy bills.
The NESO report also confirms that the increase in wind and solar power demanded by Miliband will drastically increase bills, not lower them as we were promised.
Not only is renewable energy more expensive to produce than gas generation, there are indirect costs to consider, such as paying for standby capacity, costs of storage, curtailment payments when we have too much wind and grid upgrades.
Analysis of NESO data suggests that annual costs could be £20 billion higher by 2030 if Miliband’s plans are carried through.
NESO also says that annual investment of £48 billion will be needed between now and 2030 to achieve targets.
But all of this expenditure will merely end up duplicating what we already have.
If this was not all bad enough, over reliance on intermittent renewables will mean that we will end up having energy rationing. According to NESO, households will have to switch off appliances at times of peak demand. Currently, of course, gas generation is turned up and down to match demand.
NESO hopes the public will do it voluntarily! Good luck with that.
Unsurprisingly, Ed Miliband has already been bragging that this new report proves that his clean power plan is both achievable and will lead to cheaper electricity. Both are outright lies.
But it looks like we will learn this the hard way.

He’s a fat cunt.
…without depth, moisture, or warmth.
Took the word right out of my mouth. I was going to post “what a cunt”.
it is easier to hold one man accountable for this but the reality is if the rest of govt support it and if the British public support it why insult Mr Boris?
Because he’s a cunt?
Actually! Hes not, a cunt is useful
Not one his size
We are being ruled by a lying, death-loving medical tyranny via Boris. If anyone supports this announcement, it is due to the unremitting lying and fear mongering. But YouGov is lies too.
The fact that Boris is Vallance’s glove puppet doesn’t exempt him.
And I thought Princess Nut Nuts was the puppet mistress
Really? Bringing down the tone doesn’t help lockdown sceptics cause. Could you please keep your comments above gutter level?
Can you find a better expletive to describe this pig dictator. if not “cunt” will have to suffice!
Just leave out the anatomical parts. I want to be taken seriously.
There are times when nowt else will do..
Yes, I was thinking that. I have nothing but contempt for pretty much the UK as a whole right now, but we should keep it civil- I like to show my kids these things!
Fanny clunge foof wizwang minge
Burn in hell you repulsive husk of a man.
Good grief, did he actually say that? I couldn’t stomach it that far.
Watching his latest bout of verbal flatulence on YouTube, my gut had much the same reaction.
That just about summed it up ‘verbal flatulence’…
That makes him an arsehole, more politically correct but less succinct than cunt. Prick is good too, those Anglo Saxons had the best words.
We just know such a variant will appear.
Yes Gamma 7 incoming
The HART group state over 353,000 variations – we’ll run out of symbols
Dr Mike Yeadon suggests that they differ by as much as 3% from each other
I think that is .3% is some cases.
Or the evil potion will work its spell.
That’s it time to hunt tyrants and their enablers!.Police need to be housed in Barracks that includes GPs and any cunt in the jab army.I stickered the whole town today but without a cheeky chicken and chips advert above it I think they were overlooked!
Blood will flow.
Letting everyone know who your local ‘Covid Marshalls’ are might be a start. Some of them might be unfortunates who have been forced by the Employment Office to take up such ‘jobs’ but I bet there are many who signed up willingly and it’s these Little Hitlers than need to be engaged in ‘robust discussion’.
I heard of one (new) Covid marshal that is using his new found power to advise people against taking the Jab. Unfortunately, I don’t think he will last.
I live in a small West Country town and was shocked and horrified last weekend to see my first ever blues n two’s jam sandwich “Police COVID Enforcement Unit” ominously creeping down the town High Street, occupied by several Black Mask adorned ‘Officers of the law’.
I wondered to myself…Have you lot got kids?
I can tell you, that was a disturbing sight, especially if you are of an age that can remember the collapse of “The Iron Curtain” and the day in November 1989 when half a million people gathered in mass protest resulting in the fall of the wall.
“East German leaders had tried to calm mounting protests by loosening the borders, making travel easier for East Germans. They had not intended to open the border up completely.”
Anyone hearing bells?
The lies have become so outrageous that either they believe they are invincible, or they are becoming desperate.
This could go on indefinitely. Unless people show that they won’t accept it.
people do accept it… and so does most of the government so what can we do?
They were outrageous from the very beginning – it was just that the degree of evil was so deep and so worldwide it took us by surprise.
It’s likely they feel invincible, if you’re willing to research narcissistic and sociopathic personality disorders it all makes sense. How many scandals have they survived in all of these years? They clearly have no shame. People with these disorders will double down when confronted, they have an almost god-like image of themselves.
Yet we also hear of them boasting how they’ve implemented measures they never thought possible, I’d wager that helps them feel invincible too.
Well as far as I am concerned its over, and I intend to behave as such, plus I will now try and rent a space for a pop up Wine bar and I will make it explicit that no masks, or covid restictions are followed there and visitors do so at their own risk. I think I should do quite well.
Boris can go suck
Please do tell where it will be, we can all visit then!
The main between-the-lines message I am taking away is that ADE is the plan, but it is taking longer to show up than expected.
Sorry what is ADE?
Antibody dependent enhancement.
This is similar, but different to pathogenic priming.
There’s a really good article here: https://ijvtpr.com/index.php/IJVTPR/article/view/23
Yes, posters should at first write it out first, it is off-putting to see abbreviations such as ADE and wondering what’s that supposed to be? Once it’s been explained, abbreviations can continue to be used after.
As a new member I’d also like to point out I don’t understand how this site works – clicking on ‘today’s update’ without signing in brings out articles which seem to disappear once you have logged in. I think they can be found later, but it’s a bit confusing and higgledy-piggledy.
When I first read the SPI-M-O document regarding this in April, ADE was my main takeaway too.
I listened to the Dark Horse Podcast with the inventor of mRNA technology and he said the only reason he took the “vaccine” was he wanted to travel and hadn’t seen any signals of ADE.
https://youtu.be/-_NNTVJzqtY
Sadly, no-one thought to bring up the topic of the massive increases in cases and deaths in virtually all countries where the “vaccines” have been rolled out en-mass.
I don’t know if those are ADE – Sucharit Bhakdi says ADE can begin immediately so it’s plausible.
But some, like Dr. Scott McLachlan – who has analysed the VAERS data – reported that vaccine deaths are being “hidden” as Covid deaths.
It’s extremely difficult to know what is going on but the massive spikes in deaths is extremely bad news for the vaccine either way you slice it.
Either the vaccine kills in massive numbers by itself, or it causes ADE, or a mixture of the two.
“massive increases in cases and death”
‘Cases’ are an entire separate issue from deaths.
… and there isn’t a ‘massive’ increase in deaths – even including the vaccine spikes.
Exaggeration a la Mr Toad doesn’t help the cause – the problems are much more complicated.
There isn’t a massive increase in deaths now but there was when vaccination first started, a pattern which has been seen in many different places around the world.
I thought this was mainly the old folk, getting clots and dying.
It was at first, as only the old were getting the needle.
Not just old folk, Sophie. One cause of heart attack is a blood clot. Think hyper-fit, regularly medicallly tested, professional sportsman, recently vaccinated to allow him to travel abroad for an international tournament. Or am I the only one thinking that when Danish footballer Christian Eriksson was getting CPR on the pitch at the weekend?
But clots are not ADE. Lots of young people are getting the clots, like the teenage boy on The Highwire’s latest episode
That is exactly what I thought. Very few people seem interested in this possibility. Is it because professional sportsmen collapsing on the pitch is a regular occurrence?
More than likely many of these adverse reactions and deaths go unreported on VAERS or the UK yellow card system. Or they are getting better at the cover up operations.
Rick, please don’t malign the lovable Mr. Toad!
Rest in peace Simone Scott, and may God comfort the stricken parents of a 19 year old who would be alive without Fauci and his friends.
Yes, I think ADE is going to come into play, hence why they need to quickly foist it onto the developing world as quickly as possible. Altruistic my arse.
Exactly!
Not content to resume the funding of abortion in the third world, the Biden Usurpation wants to send along our extra shots.
Is this why there are rumours from the nhs that there will be an August lockdown?
“That, of course, doesn’t exclude the possibility… that there is some new variant that is far more dangerous – that kills people in a way that we currently cannot foresee or understand.”
How unbelievably sinister this sounds.
Yes, quite threatening. There is a reason for saying that. Nothing us said without intent at these broadcasts.
Maybe they are hereby framing the narrative for the upcoming vaccine-caused deaths and know by now that this is on its way soon….
(If they weren’t planning for just that anyway, but Johnson is so st*pid, that they might have left him in the dark until now.)
Yes they know that something nasty is on the way because they will cause it. The vaccine ADE deaths may simply begin to pile as the winter comes on and/or perhaps more likely, they will release something biological/chemical or possibly an RF signal that triggers the vaccinated to become acutely and probably terminally ill. We just can’t have all these overly powered cell phone/5G stations going to waste now, can we?
I think you’ve nailed it.
On the other hand, it leads credence to the sole option that they were and are acting in good faith: an EOTE event that they couldn’t tell us of yet but wanted to prepare us for- an asteroid, the plague created by a volcanic mega eruption and so on.
Again, IMO still unlikely but the sole good faith explanation.
Nope: that REALLY is a conspiracy theory level idea.
You still trust them after everything?
You would think that there would be a natural limit to stupidity, but it doesn’t seem that way.
It would only be in good faith if they were to tell us the full truth and demonstrably so.
maybe that we are rumning out of oil?
Or massive solar flares , apparently? due 2025…
It’s all psycho manipulation designed to scrape up what’s left of the fear. They’re desperate so they’re using ever increasing tactics to continue creating terrifying scenarios, none of which so far, have happened. It’s all behavioural science.
Worse – they are pushing credibility even further to see what the audience will swallow.
It’s all being done to increase the vaccine take up as part of the long sought after massive reduction of the global population. Those who remain unvaccinated will still have to be dealt with, but as this could well be messy and time consuming, they will try to keep the vaccine refusenik numbers as low as possible. For this purpose they will rely on the use of fear, lies, coercion and unceasing propaganda. So nothing new, there then.
Sadly they are not desperate. Everything is going so much better than they could possibly have hoped. The Western economies are stuffed, America’s is destroyed, the people are submissive and keep on taking the medicine,
They are hoping someone will take violent action against them so that they can repress the shreds of dissent, and close down places like this.
Be self controlled.
It doesn’t exclude the possibility of flying pink hippos, either.
“Cannot foresee”?
The Tarot cards and chicken entrails not working then?
The Nazis had a penchant for the occult – looks like BJ’s invoking “The Bogeyman’s coming to get you!”.
“Or understand”?
Does that translate to: “We are running out of anything that might sound remotely believable to the proles”?
The Man who Cancelled Christmas is morphing into The Man who Cancelled Summer.
Detestable man.
Im sure one of the spreadsheet soothsayers can model up a future uber pandemic misusing maths.
Priming. So obvious.
Cooking up with gain of function research in a lab funded by friends of my new sciency friends.
More like complete Bullshit.
Probably alluding to the wave of adverse reactions eagerly anticipated when the “vaccines” do what they were designed for.
That’s it now. Calling for an assassination of Johnson and his cabinet. Can we start a go fund me? I assure you, I am not saying this in jest.
They must be removed by force.
I think it would have to be the whole of the parliamentarians.
You could be arrested and gaoled for that comment. It probably counts as a terrorist offence, which extends the period you can be held without being charged.
Please don’t make it easy for them to thin the real opposition.
Yeah, I hope this person has protected their online anonymity.
de Pfeffel and his clowns have actually killed people with their stupid covid measures. That is far far worse than me expressing my disgust and anger on here.
That’s absolutely true and we all get the anger. They came for the disabled, and we did nothing. They came for the elderly and sick, and we did nothing.
But we shouldn’t make this any easier for them.
They are actively hoping for a violent act from those who see what they are.
Possibly some 77th type subterfuge.
Now that’s an idea I could get behind.
Are you a plant?
Don’t be ridiculous! That’s crazy talk! Get a grip on reality. By all means, protest peacefully, but do not even entertain the notion of violence. What a disgraceful comment to make, even if it’s a joke.
sometimes violence is the only way unfortunately
Violence is never the way unless it’s in defence (For example if they were pinning you down and trying to inject you forcibly). If you become violent you become as guilty as the wicked people who are oppressing us.
Of course I’m not actually expecting LS to rise up and bump off de Pfeffel. The folk on here are far too sensible, and this lot are not worth a single second of jail time. Consider this though, the state have no problem using violence against its citizens when they see fit, unless of course they are protesting the death of a scumbag drug addict violent felon, or some climate bullshit.
The UK has a long history of removing tyrannical genocidal leaders of foreign powers for the good of their people. Who is to say no foreign power is judging the UK by that criteria right now…….
but it is not just Johnson, it would send a good message though
Calm down 77th – we know your tactics
Murder and violence isn’t the solution.
“When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system’s game. The establishment will irritate you – pull your beard, flick your face – to make you fight. Because once they’ve got you violent, then they know how to handle you. The only thing they don’t know how to handle is non-violence and humour.”
― John Lennon
As I approach my 67th birthday, I’m beginning to wonder if lockdown will be lifted during my lifetime.
How do you think I feel at 72?
… and I can add 2 more years.
Speaking as someone as roughly the same age: that’s why we’re here guys. To fight this shit. This is war and we all missed the last global one.
Spare a thought for the teeneagers. They might have to live another 50+ years of this crap before they become Soylent Green.
I do,NC because I have got 2 teenage granddaughters.
Ditto mate..
Whatever!!!!
After having read The 4th Turning, I now know that individualism has gone into hibernation in March 2020 for at least 35 years.
We are in a fight for our lives, a fight for our lives.
Demos in London on 21st June and 26th June. Let us not be defeated by Apathy.
Depends if you got the shot.
Just kidding.
Was it my imagination or did that hospitalisations graph of doom have a scale that equates to 2 hospitalisations per 100,000? I can’t bear to recap it. Whitless was flying though the slides and they all looked like they could be torn apart with the tiniest bit of context.
Remember 31/10 and the graphs of doom or the 40,000,000 cases an hour by mid September. Fantasy. Even got them a wrap on the knuckles. Means nothing. They have already lied to millions.
The whole fucking roadmap modelling of scenarios has been beaten by reality. All possible scenarios underestimated the numbers we see today.
This is all being justified on nothing but fear.
Absolutely no sign that the Delta variant is leading to an increase in deaths – none whatsoever. Will 10,000 or 20,000 die in the next month? Does anyone believe this?
Some SAGE modeller probably does. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
If Sage and the government told the sheep and collaborators that a million people a day “could” die, they would believe em!
“a proportion of the elderly and vulnerable may still succumb [to the virus] even if they have had two jabs”.
Translation: we now know and can’t hide anymore that the gene therapies are not just sh*te safety- wise, but also efficiency-wise.
~1% Absolute Risk Reduction. But you’re in the raffle for a free blood clot!
Yet I know I will go in to work tomorrow and the fear will be ramped up. I don’t feel the majority do their own research, including my highly educated family.
I know what you mean.
Same with my family. I have come to the conclusion that synonyms for ‘highly educated’ include ‘credulous’, ‘servile’, ‘uncritical’, ‘docile’, ‘obedient’ and ‘cowardly’. I can’t speak to most of them now.
In sorry to say but you’ve also described my university educated, degree owning family. I on the other just state school educated and straight off to work when I was 16 a number of decades ago. Since then I’ve been attending the university of real life to try and educate myself further, and I’m shocked to say I’ve totally bypassed my family when it comes to attaining a certain degree of awareness.
As is evidenced in your insightful comments. More power to you, as they say.
I’m with you there (though I’m university educated – which means fuck all I know). My mother called me an outlier and ‘how did I produce such a son as you’ the other week (she wasn’t being nasty, mind). I took it as a compliment.
“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently . . . “
ABSOLUTELY!!!
I offen wondered how to discribe myself.
At our local A Stand in The Park we have all ages up to 80’s mainly whatever working erm class is, ex- fireman, painter and decorator, families, no middle class professional types tho….. I highly recommend ASTITP to share experiences and gain new friends, sadly needed now.
My generation left school at 15 and you had to grow up fast.
As you suggest, HH, the majority of the higher educated sadly lack this ability.
You forgot ‘smug!’
I am confident that we will be able to go forward with the full… opening. That, of course, doesn’t exclude the possibility… that there is some new variant that is far more dangerous – that kills people in a way that we currently cannot foresee or understand. That’s obviously the case.
LOL. Boiling frogs. The gamma snd theta variants loom large.
Created by the vaccine. Or a lab.
Or Oxford’s and Porton Downs imagination. Or any combination of those.
Zeta eta theta!
Got news for you mate…It’s over! Everybody’s out!
If only.
We had a masked gas engineer in today who was sh*tting in his pants for 2 hours.
First one, but still.
Yeah, well, we’ll encountering these for a long time to cone. Leave them be, they’re lost now. Be kind but never reward their fear pychosis.
We had a service guy in a few weeks ago who was all masked up. I said to him, “no need to wear that in here” and he replied that his company won’t let them take off any of the ppe despite the high temps. I said, “suit yourself but I’m really not fussed”.
Anyway I left him to it and went to fetch him a cold drink and by the time I got back the mask had gone, never to be seen again.
Some people just need a small prod
I delivered shopping to a customer yesterday, maskless as I am exempt (from bollocks). They had a mask on when they answered the door, went back to get the rest of their shopping and the mask had magically disappeared.
Had a British Gas in at beginning of March for 2 days fitting a new boiler. First thing I told him was this is a mask-free house. His relief was palpable.
I must say that Starmer’s Labour has now obtained the irrevocable distinction of being the most useless opposition in the world’s whole history.
Congratulations.
A golden mask might be the appropriate award for them.
As a long time member of the party, I totally agree.
… but I did see it coming quite a way ahead – before this shit-show, when blatant lies were being manufactured to engineer Starmer of the Big Hair into place as an establishment shill.
However – the Tory Party is also right up the creek as the author of the shit-show.
LibLabCon: 3 cheeks of the same sheetspewing rse.
Starmer’s job isn’t to lead an opposition. He’s part of the programme. Labour’s position is generally ‘lockdown sooner/harder/longer’. Starmer is a ‘Sir’ and a member of the Trilateral Commission. It could as well have been him posing on a Cornish beach. There is no Parliamentary solution to any of this. And I say that as a life-time Labour voter and some-time member.
Agreed 100% and I have identical credentials
Yep he belongs to the tri-lateral commission, a globalist installed to do precisely what he’s doing…
They are so utterly irrelevant they may as well not even exist
No, tin.
Whats the point of the queen and the monarchy if she cannot protect the people from tyranny? Get rid of the royal family they are useless and pointless.
“the royal family … are useless and pointless.”
You mean you once thought differently???
I’ve always been a republican but had some respect for the queen, but the sooner she dies the better now.
I’d agree except for her replacement, who is an order of magnitude worse.
Don’t bother about irrelevancies – there’s enough reality.
I’m dreading King “Build Back Better” Charles who I think would defo try and overstp the mark.
I have even more bad news for those remaining believers in the “crown”.
The royals are part of the problem, qe2 isn’t going to save anyone except her delinquent circus of a family.
They hate the plebs as much as the rest of the elites.
The world is controlled by the old family banking cartels, east india company etc etc. Cyber is now the real domain of power , who controls that ? Do your research.
This site is a psyop , just like left lockdown sceptics.
They have free access to the thought processes of the main constituency of the populus – middle england.
It’s a “market research “ tool, that’s why the articles are structured as they are, these people are fishing for insight, all the while the AI monster grows in strength.
Do your research, prepare to abandon your previous lives and prepare to find other means to survive outside the system that is being created.
Her advisors really damaged her, telling her to tell the nation orf for being so selfish not getting the jab.
First misstep of her reign.
Yes. She should have had enough sense to avoid giving out medical advice!

He looks and sounds like some weird character from a Stephen King novel, who has made some secret pact with the devil and manages to give the appearance of normality, despite rotting from the inside. Like the Terminator when all his skin started to fall off.
“That, of course, doesn’t exclude the possibility… that there is some new variant that is far more dangerous – that kills people in a way that we currently cannot foresee or understand. That’s obviously the case.”
Well – anyone who swallows that load of Scary Fairy nonsense is very definitely one of the Living Dead!
But it does illustrate how far the liars now feel emboldened.
Correct,
free thinkers will not be tolerated in the new world .
The only hope to prevent the madness reaching a tipping point at which time the options will be bleak.
If enough people can hold out on the vax for 12 months or more we have a chance.
They won’t be able to support the economy indefinitely and when people lose everything , they’ll lose it.
I’m afraid this is not a lie. They can easily create such a virus.
irreversible but neverending
I deliberately avoided watching or listening to Johnson’s ‘surprise’ announcement – which has been carefully ‘leaked’ by the government to TV and press for at least a month. What’s the point? Just wait for the next ‘it hurts me more than it hurts you… but you know it’s for your own good’ announcement in a month’s time. After his seaside trip and barbeque, he most have been busy practicing his ‘doomladen’ and ‘sad’ expressions in the plane back to London.
But theres more variants round the corner…
The global plan is continuing as planned, as leaked back in Jan. Continued lockdowns/restrictions forever. Done slightly differently in each of the major countries – UK, US, Canada, Australia, NZ and Europe. Even if people arent complying (which I can imagine is most people now) they can still continue to strangle the economy, hospitality, travel and continue to increase the power of big business and corporations.
One good thing, I’ve refused to wear masks, antisocially distance and most of all refused the “jab”. People were saying we’ll be able to travel end lockdowns get our freedom back but I’ve said no to it all. How smug do I feel that for all their compliance to this BS I have been vindicated and look forward to telling them what has their “sacrifices” achieved.
BTW I still don’t know anybody who has died of C19, but over the past 15 months I have personally known of 8 people who have died, all elderly.
But it’s your fault the new variant is spreading, and we can’t get back to normal. Quick, everyone, grab him and jab him!
Note to the cyber police: That was sarcasm, not “hate speech”.
Have let the SMS calling for my jab to go unheeded, yesterday evening I had a phonecall from the NHS asking me to come for it. I asked them to call me back when the clinical trials are complete and the jab has been licenced.
Why is anybody listening to this lying, vacuous creature?
It is now our duty to resist this tyranny and protect these ancient isles. Be under no illusion, this country is under attack and the enemy are known as ‘Globalists’. It is a spiritual and psychological war. The major weapon is the mainstream media. The objective at the moment is to break the will and spirit of the British people.
Here is a short list of Globalists and who need to be held accountable.
Johnson
Hancock
Gove
Whitty
Vallance
Ferguson
Starmer
Blair
Brown
Clegg
Until people target the Special Advisers and pollsters then the cut through is going to be weak. This Government is massively inexperienced. They are listening to each other with very little noise from outside the Echo chamber. The strings are pulled by the Special Advisers and party stooges. Even the Civil Service has been politically compromised with lots of people loyal to Boris appointed to jobs. It’s not the top layer that is killing us, it’s the soup underneath. It is they who need to be held to account via their blessed social media and focus groups.
“the possibility…that there is some new variant that is far more dangerous – that kills people in a way that we currently cannot foresee or understand. That’s obviously the case.”
Well no, that isn’t OBVIOUSLY the case! If you don’t know what the variant is, and can’t foresee or understand the way it will kill people (!) then it probably ain’t going to happen…just like all the others that didn’t happen… But you still tried to pretend that they did!
Exactly.
It might snow tomorrow, let’s grit the roads tonight.
But it’s the middle of summer.
Can’t be too careful. You never know.
Lying bastard.
It might snow tomorrow – lets cancel public transport and close the roads just in case.
I could only bear listening to a few seconds of Bozo’s lies and caught him talking about big percentage increases.
I’ve just been looking on PHE for the situation at my local hospital which is a big trauma hub in the Midlands. There have been no deaths within 28 days of a “positive test” (meaningless I know) for the last 7 days and only 1 admission to the hospital with a positive test in the week of 6th June. This one admission translates to a 25% increase for that week.
We know why Bozo talks in percentage increases-it makes the data look far worse than it actually is.
The local market town which also sends people to the hospital has for some weeks been experiencing large numbers of positive “tests” amongst its population due to the Delta variant and three or four schools have been closed. Has this meant a large increase in hospitalisations and deaths? Look at the data above!
Rather like they quote the percentage increase in your chances of not developing (symptomatic) CoViD-19, after an experimental injection versus without submitting to vivisection.
I thought I hated Bliar, but I have now found that that was a very low-level type of hate; with the current sick crew, I now understand what the real thing is like.
But he’s one of the gang.
He’s more honest with regard to his evil character and evil intentions.
That counts for something.
Why would he even mention a new ‘variant’ unless there is already one planned?
I think BoJo is talking about the Cornwall Variant the B.16.200 13 0621 also known as the Alpha A1. This one is far more dangerous than the Indian one it spreads so rapidly it kills people in a way that we currently cannot foresee or understand.
This one??
Love it. About the only good thing about today.
I refuse to lose my freedom and my weird sense of humour
I do not consent.
I guess it’s impressive that UK’s economy isn’t completely dead by now. But I’m sure it will be soon enough. Might not be a Merry Christmas in merry old England.
Good luck.
It’s all being propped up with fresh paper coming out of the overworked money printing press. The consequences of what has been done here have been delayed, but not avoided. Likely magnified.
Exactly. That printing press might be getting tired, but it’s just getting started.
I’m reading Laura Dodsworths book State of Fear
(https://www.lauradodsworth dot com/a-state-of-fear) and in it she believes that Johnson in his original speech (March 2020 – so long ago) was lying and knew he was lying from his body language – she consulted some specialists about it and they agreed with her.
He demonstrated much the same tonight – He’s like a schoolboy scared of being found out
Whitty and Vallance clearly have him by the ear and are controlling him. Given that their incomes from vaccines must make them multi millionaires by now let’s hope that at The Nuremberg Trial every last penny is taken from them and the other guilty parties
Nuremberg accounted for 10 senior Nazi’s lives. The risk is that most of these bastards get away Scot free.
Forget it – there won’t be an accounting.
I think you’re right, none of them will have to face anything more than a little light scrutiny in a parliamentary sub-committee, and that probably for ‘not locking down fast enough’. I fear the best we can hope for is a slow turning of public opinion, like a ocean liner, so that in 10 years people look back and think ‘what on earth were they doing?’
The difference is that if this shitshow ever ends, a good proportion of people like us will devote their lives to making them pay.
Spot on- this past 15 months has certainly made me more hard headed and less charitable. I have absolutely no sympathy for those pathetic specimens that are hiding behind the sofa too afraid to live without being able to explain exactly WHY they hide and wear a mask.
Just finished reading it yesterday. It’s an absolute stonker, well worth anyone’s time! If only I could get certain other people to read it. Apparently a copy has been sent to every MP by Time for Recovery.
It is an excellent book, I haven’t finished it yet but have just ordered another copy to pass on to a colleague
This when you had 3 “Covid” deaths yesterday – in the entire country? And I assume those people who died had already reached the life expectancy in the UK.
From the other side of the pond, It will be interesting to see how your population reacts to this.
The BBC should be declared a terrorist organisation and taken under new management. Instead of the Fat Controller and his cronies – or puppeteers – terrorising gullible members of the public with a fairy story about a “pandemic” and “variants”, and causing many thousands of excess deaths with tyrannical policies, honest experts such as Dr. Mike Yeadon should be broadcasting to the masses, informing people of how they’ve been lied to on a colossal scale. And the current BBC management should be arrested and tried, along with our Great Leader and his colleagues.
I would suggest lethal injection as a particularly appropriate form of execution. However, the guillotine, the gallows, the firing squad or the electric chair would probably make the most entertaining viewing on livestream.

We, the people pay for the BBC, we the people pay for politicians. And the BBC platform liars and the Politicians are the fibbers.
Do not consent dear friends. Take the fight to the doors of Downing Street.
Do the members of SAGE not have doors?
I am always against the death penalty and for a fair trial.
If they had any integrity, they’d jump off a bridge collectively.
As they haven’t, it’s Nuremberg 2 for them in my book, followed by a lifelong exile in the Falklands or so, with no external contact or support at all, we’ll just throw away the keys.
The absolute worst penalty for Johnson would be to never have sex ever again.
Sorry, you’re ok with death by suicide but not with just punishment? These criminals have killed countless, don’t forget.
God bless Mike Yeadon.
God be with him.
Johnson is the single biggest threat to this countrys’ freedoms and way of life since German Panzer tanks rolled into Calais in 1940 – but whereas the Germans wore military uniforms with nazi insignia and made no secret of their intentions to install its dictatorial regime by force Johnson pretends to be one of us and fakes regret about his cruel decisions while endlessly making false promises that torment us about our freedoms that reveal him to be a little tinpot dictator on a power trip.
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.’ CS lewis
Johnsons Junta can only govern us with our consent – if collectively we no longer consent to these restrictions that Johnson has extend for a further four weeks then he no longer has the authority and neither the resources to impose them.
Johnsons Junta would be finished.
If you want your old life back then start saying no to this tyrannical maniac.
THIS DOES NOT END UNTIL WE SAY IT DOES,
Fat chance.
Ze Germans are currently demanding from their politicians, who put out trial balloons to end the nask mandates, to be more cautious with that.
The effin RETAILERS Association is the most concerned and dead straight against lifting the mask mandate.
They and this humanity now fully deserves to go extinct soon.
I just hope us few sane freedom lovers can assemble in Florida and prosper there while they all go to hell.
Labour are fucking the country as heavy as the Tories. It’s maddening.
And Stop calling him “Boris”. That’s a stage name. He is Johnson, Alexander Johnson or if you prefer something more earthy. Absolute Satan whore. But not Boris. You are not friends.
He is Kim Jong Johnson
As evva, Keith Cuntabout puts it best.

If this is what he wants, then this is what he’ll get. He’s finished
When they say that the highest proportion of covid cases are now in the middle ages ,they are using statistics for manipulation. There will be as there are many in that age group who havent been vaccinated compared to the older ones.But as an individual in your 40’s or 50 like me who havent been vaccinated ,you have the same minimal chance of being hospitalized as last year at the peak. Possibly even less and if you are fit this virus is no threat to you. There will be a higher ratio in this group but not a higher number than last year. The lockdown lifting delay is purely to pressure all groups into being vaccinated. AZ is a killer it has killed 2 men I know back in March /April in my age group in the space of 2 miles within a few days. One with blood clots which led to heart attack and another one of heart attack. They never made the news as they were middles aged ,working class.
I know of four vaccine deaths and two injuries, one in their 30s in hospital with lung blood clots right now. I know three people who definitely had batflu and severity was no worse than flu. Surely the sheep are going to spot the pattern soon?
“Surely the sheep are going to spot the pattern soon.” Hope so. My experience mirrors yours.
It was tyranny last March when they imposed it and its still tyranny today.
Not surprised that bungling Boris hanging out with the globalist 7 top tier paternalistic totalitarian techno authoritarian build back better social engineer leaders of the dystopian great reset of flagrant money printing into financial oblivion and forced cashless digital currencies for their new total control digitised Id system….would decide to keep the screws on his own people.
Can somebody come up with something more than impotent ranting?
Please!
If we could, we’d probably have done it by now.
“If there is hope it lies in the proles”
I believe we need to focus more of our efforts on facilitating the masses to regain consciousness. It’s been completely dispiriting, I know.
The injection of children may be our last hope for this. If we can only wake the believers up to the true evil, or at least the recklessness, the whole spell may be broken.
I don’t wear masks, I don’t keep any further away from people than I used to, I haven’t been jabbed, and I explain to people who ask why I behave as I do.
Not sure what else I can do: my savings don’t allow me to compete with the government or Gates on the production of propaganda.
Social media. The social media companies are using AI against us, but some of the message will get through.
Every little helps. One tiny action could have an enormous effect! If nothing else, always speak your truth, and speak loudly. Don’t be quiet for fear of upsetting anyone. Their reaction is their problem – you are not responsible for how they feel. But by the same token don’t force anyone to accept your views and opinions. Stand strong and lead by example. It only takes one brave soul to change the behaviour of many.
Stand up to them in public places. Ask them questions they can’t answer. Shame them in public.
I do that- most are horrified and think I’m being mean for upsetting them, poor souls. One actually asked me why I was being so mean!
The only hope we have is that the sheep notice that acquaintances are being hospitalised or worse by the vaccine and not a lousy cold. But by then they will all have been sentenced to the horrors that have been planned for them.
Boris is the boss
No he’s a globalist puppet.
He is a globalist Boss puppet
He’s a bag of festering shite as well!
I’ve just looked at today’s application of a couple of the government’s tests:
Test three: Infection rates do not risk a surge in hospital admissions, which would put unsustainable pressure on the NHS. (https://youtu.be/uXDgVjXbcFA?t=1190)
The infection rates Whitty presented were, quite obviously, incapable of leading to a “surge in hospital admissions”, and, in fact, he seemed to acknowledge this. However, he segued onto projections of future rates that would (according to him) be at risk of causing such a surge. Hence, effectively, Test 3 can always be defeated by rolling out a Neil Ferguson model, irrespectively of what the (highly dubious) statistics actually show.
Test four: Our assessment of the risks is not fundamentally changed by new Variants of Concern. (https://youtu.be/uXDgVjXbcFA?t=1360)
This appeared to be Whitty’s real trump card. Simply, he pointed out that an assessment ignoring cases of the current, leading, variant (at the moment, Indian / Delta) would be fundamentally different from the assessment that takes account of them. The leading variant is in the ascendant, while the older variants decline – Bingo!
By picking their times to “update” us, SAGE and the government can contrive to fail at least one of these test, continually and indefinitely.
Oh, they will!
Just say no.
Kim Jong Johnson said the four week delay will give Witch Doctators more time to extract a new scariant from his great fat communist fraudulent arse
Everyone knew this was going to happen, so pointless ranting is a waste of time.
It was very clear to anyone with half a brain cell in march 2020 what was happening. , that was the one and only time to stop this in its tracks.
Now its a very long and arduous war of attrition. Totalitarians do not give up power willingly, ever. It has to be prised from them. Given recent history in Europe that will take at least 4 decades, if we are lucky.
There is no easy fix to this. There will hopefully be some shining lights of freedom in places like florida to take some comfort from. but mainly a very dark shadow has descended on the earth. The sooner people realise this the better, and start to equip themselves for a long, very long struggle to overcome their biotech masters.
No. Do not give up the fight.
With their plan to inject children, the globalists may have overstepped themselves. We need to work on raising enough resistance, from the erstwhile complacent masses.
You are correct, unfortunately a year ago anyone suggesting this would happen was branded a nutter by all the pious readers.
The architects of this have had decades to plan , piece together and assemble the infrastructure to enable the final push.
Eugenics, “communitarianism” and total control are the goal.
Free thinkers are the enemy to the plan . The multitude of useful idiots will gayly sell out our freedoms but the salvation they imagine won’t save them . We will all be in the gulag together.
The only hope is if the underclass take to the streets , we need to be ready to join them. The soft middle class white collar and “working class” technicians have been bought off until the enclosure is completed.
Some brave child needs to proclaim, “Hey, the Emperor has no clothes.”
So where is the opposition? I’ve been a life-long conservative voter, but NEVER again. Labour are beyond useless so how do we vote this lot out? If ever there was a time for a populist leader to catch the feeling of the population and create a wave of hope, then now is it. Tice seems to talk a lot of sense but you’ll only find him on TalkRadio talking to the already converted.
Something has to change, the world can see how Florida and Texas have handled the situation. Why are they doing this in the UK? I don’t believe in the Great Reset theory but the actions of these ministers is so counter-productive and stupid, we are truly in desperate times.
“the world can see how Florida and Texas have handled the situation.”
Can they? Our MSM isn’t reporting what is happening there.
Quite, and they out and out lied about Sweden
At times, you just need to let go of Hanlon’s razor.
If only Hancock’s razor were to be involved in some kind of mishap!
Political parties are now obsolete
The spread of these highly infectious and dangerous variants didn’t seem to bother Johnson when he flew in his private jet to Cornwall to spend the weekend drinking champagne and hanging out with his foreign pals and their entourages who flew in from all over the world.
WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!
Not in the least bit surprised. Irreversable my fucking arse, this is forever. if we let it go any further
I’m sure a lot of the double vaccinated who went along with this will be scratching their heads. I have no doubt many will blame the unvaccinated but I think there will be many who suspect they’ve been had.
Toby’s silence is quite defeaning.
I thought Whitty and Vallance looked remarkably twitchy and uncomfortable. Johnson gave every impression of having chugged a litre of Emva Cream before the broadcast. These broadcasts seem more and more like hostage videos.
I like to think that the sociopathic bastards at SPI-B at the very minimum are starting to sense that even if no formal justice is meted out to them that waking up with a horse’s head (I don’t mean Michie) and all that follows is not beyond the realms of possibility.
In a parallel fantasy world in which I imagine this is actually about a virus, I can entertain the idea that the delay of 2 weeks or 1 month is entirely predicated on the duration of the Euro football tournament. If England are chucked out, it’s two weeks and if we go through it will be a month. After all, we lose our heads in football tournaments and should it turn out that the dropping of social distancing, masks and all that other psycho theatre fails to produce even a twitch on the dial, then all our mitigations will be shown to have been utterly pointless. Impending doom there is none. It’s simply about the Euros and what they will reveal about the complete absence of anything to worry about apropos Covid. Plus of course, a lot of drunk and merry people will talk to each other, and the enchantment will start to evaporate like the morning mist. And then I come to my senses again. Alas…
The morning mist will linger
As will the mourning pissed.
Marylander here.
It’s time for you to take back the UK with mass, countrywide civil disobedience. Your vaccination, infection rate, and CV mortality numbers are far better than ours, and we have been open for the past month and a half and there’ve been no spikes.
There’s no excuse for delaying the opening. In the absence of easing the restrictions, take back your freedom.
So true …
Brilliant and again so true ….
The pure evil of this is that they will ultimately get what they want come the Winter, however much outrage there is now and even if the zealots break rank and show their displeasure, the ball will fall back in their court. That’s the ace they know they have. They will use the seasonal surge of an endemic virus as proof of a ‘3rd Wave’ of the pandemic. The gullible will shrink back into subservience and we are all back to square one.
We should be really concerned with a serious haematological condition that is spreading like a contagion throughout the public. It is unstoppable by lockdowns, masks or jabs. Indeed, it is transmissible right into peoples’ homes by a few seriously demented individuals. Boris is one of those. What is the condition? It is blood boiling.
If there are people out there who still trust this proven liar then we have a much MUCH bigger problem than lockdowns and restrictions – we have an entire nation of people who are not only incapable of critical thinking but who have also developed an unhealthy bond with their abuser which borders Stockholm Syndrome.
Spot on
If you have ever wondered how millions of decent intelligent Germans could have been conditioned into mindless acceptance of an evil Nazi regime maybe you are beginning to understand how it was possible now and how it is still possible today … even in Britain.

or have they known all along?

26th June 1pm Central London.
I will be there – with friends and acquaintences – most of whom have had the vaccine twice and were expecting to regain their freedoms in return for accepting the jab offer and have now thoroughly had enough of this whole treacherous fiasco.
Hope you can all join us too if possible … if people want a return to normality then we must take a stand against this insanity and say no to these monsters who will torment us without end.
Enough is Enough.
Welcome onboard. Better late than never.
Sadly, it will have to be a virtual attendance in view of the distance and cost to travel up to cess pit central
This governments obessession with covid is having a disastrous impact on other health issues for diseases that have a far higher fatality rate than coronavirus – this is why we must bring about an end to this crazy situation .. this is why we must take a stand and bring an end to Johnsons disastrous reign ….

So many reasons to be depressed today by these latest cunty actions and cowardly words.
Vallance: “If we didn’t have the vaccinations we’ve got, we would be looking at what lockdowns would be needed” – Yes of course you would you fucking moron, because you’ve learnt nothing from within your own country about their ineffectiveness and the harm they cause and you’ve learnt fuck all from around the world and the different approaches taken.
Johnson: “The objective of this short delay is to use these crucial weeks to save thousands of lives, of lives that would otherwise be lost.” – Stop pretending it’s about saving lives you lying grandstanding cunt. The only thing you care about is arse-covering and protecting yourself against any future inquiries. You show no care at all for the vast majority of people’s lives in this country otherwise we wouldn’t even be under restrictions for you to extend. Sort out a proper health service you vacillating, spineless, blob of piss-haired cuntflappery and stop lying about saving lives.
YouGov: “A YouGov snap poll found that 71pc of English adults back a proposed delay to the June 21 lockdown end, including 41pc who said they would “strongly” support the delay. Eight in ten of those aged 65 or older said they are supportive of the delay, whereas that fell to only 54pc of those aged 18 to 24 who said they would support it.” – I’m not going to make it an age related thing in the way that YouGov have, as I see plenty of evidence here that many people older than 65 are just as pissed off at this continued bullshit as I am. It is fucking depressing though. I will say that older ‘demographic’ were the most scared and the most likely to receive their news through broadcast media and traditional newspapers, whether online or digital. So fuck the BBC, Sky, ITV and Peston in particular. Fuck Cummings and the media obsession with that cunt making it even more likely that Johnson and Hancock would shit their pants again. A plague on Sage and their rentaquote gobshites too. And fuck anyone who can’t manage their own risk who has the mental and physical capability to take any decisions about what they do in their own lives.
I wish you would stop using such flattering terms for our enemies. Politeness will get us nowhere!
Very well put.
…
After the off-camera unmuzzled Cornwall love-in, a virus blowing across the land in time for the next extension will be the Bullingdon Variant. Symptoms include smirking, laughing, lying and being a fat cunt.
He’s not “Boris”. How many times do we have to tell you? We can’t be on first name terms with someone who’s done what he’s done and is doing to this country.
Yes ,as I have pointed out many times hereabouts.. a Johnson is a cock…innit!
71% support delaying.
Not credible.’
Man, I hope that’s not credible. If true, it’s downright depressing.
They must have hired Biden’s pollsters.
Yeah, I don’t think that’s credible at all at this point.
Bearing in mind this is a government poll, I suggest you take it with a pinch of salt. This is another psychological grab at destroying our individual businesses and creating a global government
Unfortunately, the lockdown skeptics are in the minority. The majority of people want this and until that changes, they will keep getting away with this.
I think there are more of us than you realise. It’s just too many are now so terrified they just do not know which way to turn. We must also understand that the old communist trick of paying people to stay at home creates a real lack of desire to get up and work. The act of travelling to work is still relatively new in terms of society. It started with the Victorians and the Industrial Revolution. Given the choice most people would prefer working close to home.
This country has been living in real psychological fear for nearly 40 years. The day we joined the EEC and were subjected to socialist laws, regulation and growing bureaucracy, all of which were alien to our way of life. Government was never involved in our choice of schools, our choice what we ate or how we looked after each other. The insidious creep of socialism and bureaucracy comes from France and Germany. The British were too naive to realise their politicians were no longer serving them, but instead serving a foreign power

It just goes to show how effective propaganda can be. Over 70% of the population surveyed by YouGov support lockdowns and Bozo believes his own lies. What a surprise NOT.
YouGov panels are overwhelmingly left wing, a goodly number of who are being paid their full salary by their state employers to ‘work from home’ on full salary. What’s not to like?
Bozo is so weak he takes the shape of whoever sat on him last – take a bow Princess Nut Nuts
Boris Announces Extension of Lockdown by Four “Crucial Weeks” – Noting “Possibility” That a “Far More Dangerous” New Variant Could Cause Further Delays After July 19th
He almost let the cat out of the bag: “That a far more dangerous new variant, which we have yet to invent, could cause further delays after July 19th.”
Are folk really going to comply. Are they really so stupid they cannot see the agenda. Do they not understand that their way of life and their whole future is being taken from them.
So many of us knew this was coming down the road when the politicians agreed to a three week lockdown. How can so many educated commentators, journalists and politicians be so wantonly blind as not to understand what us, the workers and taxpayer were telling them. We had no one, NO ONE, in the ‘establishment’ stand for truth and honesty. It may now be too late to avoid the violence, the death and the destruction, that we all wanted to avoid by using debate and discussion.
I for one am so proud my children chose not to go to university or join the ranks of the sycophants. I for one am proud my children are not sending their children to nursery or child minders from the age of 18months. I am so proud that the most sensible, moral and patriotic of us are still within the working classes and small business communities of my England an my UK.
The working classes always have been the most moral and patriotic people. They are the very backbone of this country. The love of money is the root of all evil and it has, unfortunately overtaken us.
GB News says people were really angry at the protest… from the clip they show, they don’t look angry at all, just milling around and having a good time. Looks like the ‘protests’ have been allowed anyway, because the government haven’t stopped the trains from running in an effort to stop protesters from arriving in London.
People should be FURIOUS at the lies and the handing out of huge contracts, using public money, to their mates. Anyone seen Dido Harding in Lidl hunting through the offers, trying to save her pennies?
If any of these protests were to get ‘out of hand’ then they’d just send in a few soldiers to shoot a few protesters and the rest will scuttle off back to the nearest Tube station.
I don’t think people realise how serious this situation is. With computer systems controlling us down to the minutest detail, even to what items we bought in the supermarket, and an army of ‘watchers’ of our text-messages and e-mails and comments on-line, there will never be another chance to get ‘the old normal’ back.
The ‘digital platform/ID’ and ‘social credit score’ is pretty much in place anyway – perhaps the next “4 weeks” is nothing to do about more jabbing but more time to get the control systems rolled out and to put up even more surveillance cameras.
In respect of the persisting lockdown: I will follow the science, but unlike the many of the politicians who are making the decisions on liberty I did not spend my former years studying humanities, law or other arts degrees; a seeming prerequisite for political power, and have come to different conclusions as to what the data indicates.. To understand science you first need to understand that there is no absolute. To understand medicine you have to understand that every patient is their own unique biological experiment . The lack of seasonal flu this winter has demonstrated that if you isolate society it will not spread infection- well Boris welcome to the germ theory!
However we will all die and the Government cannot stop that; but it can prevent us from living. But no longer.!For me no masks. no social distancing . I will follow the science not the fear!
Oh good God! Now Boris is looking for FMD (Far More Dangerous variant). If some expert says they don’t think there are any FMD’s, will they be found dead on a hill?
It is also the majority of the population who support the lockdown who Boris relies on to support his decisions who need condemnation. A NO MASK MONDAY?
just stop with the masks. I’ve yet to be challenged.
It’s not hard to sign up to the YouGov app and fill in the daily survey about Covid. If we all did it we might shift the narrative a bit. There isn’t much of practical use we can do but this is one thing we could all do with minimal inconvenience to ourselves. This is what’s so annoying – YouGov is entirely self selecting yet it’s leading the government by the nose.
The man is a twat, but worse are the sheeple accepting this dictatorship without a murmur!
They’ve no intention of a Freedom Day date, because permanent control is the goal. And if 71% of people are still apparently gladly accepting further lockdown, according to a poll, then they deserve the totalitarian existence that is well underway thanks to their meek compliance. The problem is that they are taking us down with them.
What a disgusting, despicable lying and deceitful creature he is.
Not an heir to Churchill but another Blair.
Churchill the dog would be a better leader.
I think YouGov subscribers are biased and the questions are biased to produce a certain outcome. I used to do their surveys, as someone on LS recommended we do them to give a LS view but then i got so fed up with the questions I stopped.
“Weddings and wakes with over 30 guests will be permitted after June 21st, so long as social distancing guidelines are followed”
Really?
And what about G7 summits?
What guidelines/laws did they follow?
Hypocritical, double-standards pieces of excrement
To actually announce this extension directly after G7 goes way beyond hypocrisy and into the realms of contempt and other words that haven’t even been invented to describe it yet.
I would like to know how the question to determine people supporting the delay. Was it on the lines of “Would you support extending lockdown if it means saving thousands of lives?” That would explain the figures. I don’t trust YouGov any more than I trust the government.
That question is too nuanced. They’re more likely to ask, “Do you support an extension to lockdown or the gang rape of your granny?”
Well apparently at least 71% of the population wants to continue with imprisonment!WTF?
Is there something wrong with me and us sceptics? I’m really getting concerned now.
HomoBovinus, HomoGallusgallus domesticus, et al. They are clucking mooing and bleating happily in all of this. Tragically they are the majority. Generally speaking, Mr & Mrs. average.
On average are the double-digit class (IQ). By their very nature they follow, hence the allusion to ‘bovine and cluckers’ (I think I spelled that right). They do not fall into the Mr & Mrs. above average category.
Dictators and tyrants have known this throughout history. Mr & Mrs. above average will obviously always be in the minority, therefore easily kept quiet while the flockers, cluckers, and cattle follow meekly and blindly to the gates of the slaughterhouse. Mooing, clucking, and bleating in a satisfied and contented manner. Completely oblivious to what is going on or where they are headed.
God (I’m agnostic) help us all and most of all our grandchildren and all small children everywhere who will believe this is how we have to live..
Oh and, spotted this recently, it sums this insanity up very nicely. Says a lot about society today when all these things can be foisted on us with little or NO pushback.
Anyone who thought that these nonsensical restrictions would be lifted on 21 June is either extremely naive or incredibly thick. Unfortunately, those two adjectives apply to most of the population judging by their supine acceptance of the erosion of freedom of choice and freedom of speech.
It is evident to anyone that can think for themselves that this government supported by Twitty, Unbalanced and Stalin’s nanny have no intention of returning the country to a liberal democracy.
