A statistical paper questioning the guilt of Lucy Letby has been refused publication by a science journal over fears that it might upset the parents of her victims. The Telegraph has the story.
Prof John O’Quigley, from the Department of Statistical Science at UCL, submitted an analysis to Medicine, Science and the Law, setting out the “logical and statistical errors” in cases of suspected serial killer nurses, including Letby.
Although the police and prosecution said statistics were irrelevant in Letby’s case, Prof O’Quigley argued in the paper that “statistical arguments are used to show that a crime has taken place”.
In the paper he stated that a “smoking gun” roster chart placing Letby at all the deaths and collapses cannot be relied upon and said that the spike in deaths was explicable by “a catalogue of serious shortcomings” at the hospital, such as understaffing.
However, the paper was rejected by Medicine, Science and the Law with the main reviewer arguing that “the suffering of the parents of the victims needs to be held firmly in mind”.
The reviewer said they were “open to the need for critical development in jurisprudential processes – including academic critique in peer reviewed publication” but said they were “unconvinced” it was the appropriate time.
They added: “The time for critique will come – and the Thirlwall Inquiry represents an important opportunity for such – but I am unconvinced that it has arrived, outside of that inquiry, as yet.”
The Thirlwall Inquiry is currently examining how deaths could have been prevented at the Countess of Chester Hospital and evidence is due to conclude in January.
Prof O’Quigley said he was now intending to submit the paper to a journal outside of Britain.
More dispassionate science from an academic establishment more worried about optics than truth. The Thirlwall Inquiry of course has specifically ruled out questioning Letby’s guilt, so no “critique” of the evidence can be expected from there.

At this point, there is not a person on Earth who thinks this has anything to do with healthcare. Not one. The game is up and we’re ready for the final showdown.
Sadly most still do!
Bring on the showdown anyway!
Not a “thinking” person on Earth – sadly their numbers are falling under the assault of mindless moronic workery!
Preventing people from thinking is a major objective of the Great Reset!
It has already wrecked our schools and Universities!
It’s best to regard the vaccines as a tax.
A tax people have accepted needs to be paid to get normal life back.
People don’t like to feel like they’re suckers paying tax while others don’t.
To make matters worse, the tax collectors are saying that until EVERYONE pays the tax no one gets their normal life back.
We are so used to being squeezed for taxes in the west that it’s very natural for people to accept abuse by the state in the form of coerced payments and intuitive to hate the dodgers.
In supposedly less developed countries, payment of tax is more erratic and dodging tax isn’t viewed badly. Hence lower vax rates and nothing like the same kind of social pressure.
How about the unvaxxed who have had it – once again no mention of those who have the highest and most natural protection…..?
But those who’ve had it are the only vaccinated!
The jabs are not vaccines, only failed prophylactics.
You present the best case scenario.
The jabs may well have been designed to cause harm in new and interesting ways.
I think that seem pretty clear now. In fact it gets clearer by the day as the figures on these “interesting ways” stack up.
I am reading more and more about possible long-time damage to the immune system. The unvaxxed might be the only ones still standing in twenty years’ time. Then they will be proved right!
Whether they have “failed” or not will only be revealed when we see their effect on life expectancy – current Yellow Card stats and those of other similar reporting agencies around the world give us some idea.
The future doesn’t currently look too good for vaxxed, active, healthy sports’ stars, at no risk from Covid -19
Sure but what about those of us who haven’t had it and are healthy? There is such a thing as natural immunity.
There is indeed such a thing as natural immunity. After all, think back to 1348/9, the time of the Black Death; although a large proportion of the population succumbed and died, one-third, I think is the figure, TWO-THIRDS did not die.
There were no vaccines then, healthcare was nothing like it is (or should be) today, and sanitation was, shall we say, limited.
I do not wish to be understood as callous; the plague was and is a really nasty and deadly disease, I am merely pointing out some basic facts.
Yes, this is the vaccine sceptic approach to public health. Let it rip.
False.
Yeah – they get 6 months on their ‘Vaccine Passport’. After that it’s get the jab or their pass becomes invalid.
It really is that simple – as I have said from the start, ‘Covid’ is people control. It is blackmail. You get the jabs, and pay for them, or they won’t let you out to play. Oh, and you have to pay for ‘tests’ and ‘quarantine hotels’ too – you didn’t think they were going to make it that easy, did you?
Covid – scam of the century. They want your money, and they want to tell you what you may or may not do. And most people will obey – as we have seen.
It’s not and has never been about health.
Correct.
To the millions who are STILL cretinously comatose or just malevolent, like the p!ss stain i caught a snippet of on Hartley-Brewer this morning, who would appear to be a reincarnated Mengele…
Time for a deep breath and a moment of reasoned thought. Is Macrons latest pronouncement science based? Or pure evil ideology?
No need for ‘reasoned thought’ in this case – the answer shouts at you: “pure evil ideology” has it!
“Macron the Destroyer” of France as he will be called by the survivors .
From anointed Clovis to Macron – from the Sublime to the Ridiculous!
It was great while it lasted!
Pass thanks. Even if we were allowed in, we’d still be subject to house arrest on our return.
even if we were allowed in we wouldn’t be allowed to do anything due to their idiot-pass. So no thanks, Fuck France.
Markets closed, shops closed, restaurants closed – without the Vax Pass.
There must be a massive underground society developing – but tourists will not be part if it.
France, overwhelmed with the never-to-end burden of ‘unsympathetic’ mass immigration and now open colonisation of its suburbs – now without the vital, stimulating income from global Mass Tourism, will be struggling.
Zammour has given them a bleak and brutal choice of how to survive as a nation and culture or die – they will side-step the offer out of fear, but not out of conviction..
not that desperate to go to france
Me neither.
I kind of am – I have relatives who live there that I would like to see. With restrictions on travel there I cannot visit. I miss them.
Those who loved what France was will miss her…Macron has destroyed France.
With the help of his bodyguards.
Me too. I haven’t seen my little grandson for two years. I also have a tiny flat in France, which I stay in when I visit because they don’t have room. Although I’m not allowed into France, I am still expected to pay taxes to the French Government for it.
Pathetic, still want people jabbed bagged and tagged
Maybe that should be covidians’ punishment?
Let’s go back to normalcy but encourage THEM to keep being covidian!
Delicious justice served cold.
I think they should be branded on the forehead so the idiots are instantly recognisable
There’s a mssk for that!
So everyone’s quitting and MSM have started to turn against the narrative. Yet Macron doubles/triples/lost count down. Really a good measure of IQ this isn’t it.
Macron is at heart a nasty person
Macron was trained under the WEF young leaders programme.
This is why he and his well funded and organised political party appeared from nowhere and gained a huge amount of MSM support.
trained = indoctrinated. Yes let’s see how these key “global shapers” deal with the current situation.
Who organised the carefully timed and convenient Political Assassination of Fillon- the man who would have won the Presidential election ( and a friend of the UK!)?.
Run to their mummies?
Exactly -people really need to know this!
He has the power of the repressive State and will enjoy using it ( if his Maman agrees of course). Sorry to say but was obvious that he was a Banker- a dangerous Globalist t chancer of the Schwab school, with powerful external friends fro day one.
He has expressed nothing but contempt for ordinary French working people
He fooled and exploited the congenitally stupid Hollande so easily! He then divided and exploited the French electorate so easily and Le Penn’s bovine performance in the TV debate handed it all to him on a plate.
On his Election ( most electors did not vote for him) he waved the EU Stars and played the “Ode to Joy” in central Paris , not the Marseillaise – said it all.
Last 14th July Parade was like a wokist gender-neutral Junior school performance – I’m surprised the French Military were even allowed to attend!
This has been a fraud from the word go.
Boris and his staff were happy to meet in his garden and get pissed together because they knew that covid19 was not a threat to them, they knew they would not be taking any terrible disease home to their loved ones.
The recently released department of education document on the efficacy of face masks actually provides clear evidence that masks do no good. They pushed masks on us and on the children to promote fear and compliance.
The vaccines (really gene therapy injections) were never needed but Boris and his co conspirators wanted to push them as the only solution, the vaccines have caused colossal numbers of injuries in the short term, God only knows what the long term damage will be.
Will the covidian mongs ever wake up and accepted they have been conned?
Well said -in answer to your last question – no, they are too stupid and arrogant and now also frightened to admit what they have done to themselves and what they been conned into by the ‘trusted’ BBC et al plus their sicking up the relentless ‘fear porn’ and their failure to ask just a few, moderately intelligent but simple questions.
Fuck Macon
He should meet with Madame Guillotine!
Their loss! I can always spend my money someplace else. I will not interact with anyone who wants to segregate or discriminate against others.
Yes. I also won’t be spending any money in Next or Ikea as they discriminate against the unvaxxed and won’t pay them sick pay if they have to self isolate due to contact with a covid case, while they will pay sick pay to the jabbed.
Total absence of any kind of scientific or health care rationale and nothing more than pure discrimination. A very dangerous route to begin to travel down. I will not forget.
This is quite the lawsuit in the making, has anyone informed Ikea and Next? Even at this point in time it is clear the vaxx makes no difference. When sanity returns and clearer minds prevail, the blatant discrimination and ignoring of employment laws should result in some quite serious penalties. They better start setting up their reserves now.
Will you be going to McDonalds? They have thrown out an unvaxxed family from one of their homes.
How about Tesco? How many here have sneaked into Tesco despite their cries of boycotting Tesco due to their Covid-Pass Santa on their Christmas advert?
Nor me.
Why? Because Macron decrees that unvaxed are non-citizens and are not to be allowed anywhere ( with the odd exception, like buying food) that good citizens ie those treble jabbed , can go. He’s hardly likely to accept entry for the unvaxed ‘roast beefs’ when he is making them pariahs in his country.
This is not just a ‘UK’ thing. Anybody double jabbed from an EU/EEA/US country can gain entry to France, but not to any restaurants, bars etc etc when they get there.
As everyone points out, the data in SA, UK and Denmark, ie countries not hiding stats, show that its vaccinated rather than unvaccinated that are the majority in hospitals and ICUs with omicron. France does not allow these stats to be easily read, however it is possible to dig them out, and they tell the same story. But the likes of Veran and Castex tell lies on a regular basis which is used by the media without any checks on its validity.
Macron has always been a globalist stooge. His recent actions, as well as being typically vile, show where his allegiances lie. The majority of French dislike him, yet he will probably win the election because no-one can muster the necessary votes, a symptom of the system and the general apathy for elections.
I have to correct you on one point you say “double jabbed from an EU/EEA/US country can gain entry to France, but not to any restaurants, bars etc etc when they get there.”
Actually The EU Covid passport is used a entry to bars restaurants hotel public transport. The Americans can convert their paper Covid passports to the EU one after arriving in France. There are a number of posts on travel forums about this.
Other EU countries do not permit this to happen.
No that is incorrect. The EU pass can get you into the country, but you have to convert it to a French health pass ( from the 15th a vaccine pass) to gain entry to bars, restaurants etc. The ‘reader’ internally in France is devised to pick up expired QR codes that do not conform to internal French rules. Its an easy mistake to make, but the external EU QR code will NOT give you entry to establishments internally in France.
The CDC records can be converted into EU QR codes in certain pharmacies in France, but that will NOT give US travelers access to French establishments unless the QR codes are consistent with internal French requirements, ie after 15 Dec over 65s with teble vacs and after 15 Jan over 12 yr olds with treble vacs. After 15 Jan tests and prior infections will not give access.
I don’t think anywhere in the world has such restrictions. Add to this restrictions to even leave France if you are not vaxed and it is a PRISON STATE!!
One has to wonder why the media hasn’t been full of stories of supermarket workers dropping like flies given the filthy unvaxxed are allowed in!
The very fact that supermarkets and garden centres and B&Q have been open all during the ‘pandemic’ should give a hint to anyone with half a brain that there has not been any ‘pandemic’ at all.
The official belief in the vaccines as a protective measure is completely understandable as if authorities show acceptance that they don’t work to suppress cases then the vast numbers of people who became vaccinated ‘for the greater good’ might get rather cross.
So they will keep up this pretence until the evidence becomes overwhelming. As they control the ‘official evidence’ of vaccine effectiveness this might take a little time, but it will come.
People’s suppressed voices will surge in a chorus of righteous dismay at being duped, raped, and controlled for no reason at all.
Nope – what will happen is that January 26th will arrive, and on January 27th people will still be in their face masks.
Do we even have a list of all the ‘nurses’ who have been injecting the nation? Surely they must have names? And surely these are the very people at ‘the coal face’ and some of the most guilty? Where’s the list?
Really hope so.
On his GB News show the other night, Farage said he is double jabbed but not inclined to have his booster. Obvs going as far as Ofcom rules will permit them to go.
Would love to hear other GB News presenters saying similar (if they can) on their shows.
Not a problem in getting “balance”, though. With the ex-member and picture of health, “Brillo” Neil, having done a “filer a l’anglaise” or, as we have it, “taken French leave” to his French retreat, from which he issues abuse about the “unvaccinated”, there is more than enough of that view to counterbalance anything that Farage might say.
So we are seemingly undergoing a thaw in covidian balls in the UK on the subconscious level.
When will Micron have to pivot like the ballerina he is because the weigh of BS is avalanching onto his head?
The hunting don of unvaxxed is also going on the UK.
Wessex Water and Ikea have previously said that they will reduce sick pay for the unvaxxed.Reduced to statutory min that is.
Today I see Next is another company going down the same route.
How does this vaxxed/unvaxxed sit within privacy laws. That covers the covers the UK and the EU. The principles are covered by the same EU GRDP laws.
The division of society is seemly getting bigger.
Do Wessex Water and Ikea say what their sick pay policy will be for any staff that are vaccine injured?
Excellent point!!!
Maybe you should look for the answer and inform us does any company compensate for any medical injury that takes place outside of working hours?
I would boycott Wessex Water, but I need the water … I will write to them instead and make my opinion known.
Keep writing as this is spreading like a virus.
One of the key goals of this fraud was to make international travel impossible unless you submit to having whatever shit pharma/government says you must have injected into you.
The vaccine passport has created the perfect captured market for pharma.
Of course it all links to the Green Agenda – by stopping people from travelling around so much which is part of their Agenda.
A sensible post! Yes, it’s Blackmail – no jab, no travel. Or, at least, we will deliberately make travel as hard as we can for you. And, even if ‘fully vaxxed’ we’ll still make travel ‘risky’ for you … as you never know if you’re going to get a ‘positive’ from that LFT piece of tat Made in China, do you?!
Everyone on tenterhooks and trying to hide from Test & Trace. Getting rid of Test & Trace should be a priority.
Double jabbed french health minister. Got the Kung Flu.
. If your unaware. He is a right horrible twat.
Its Karma – enjoy!
A shame he didn’t catch anything serious.
So has the Austrian Chancellor, apparently. Caught it at a meeting of fully vaxxed mask wearers. Ha ha ha.
I am enjoying listening to Pf Didier Raoult.
A new book.
A good radio interview on SUD radio.
All in French for now.
‘the vacinnes have increased the epidemic’
I’ve been to France nearly every year of my adult life. I will never go again, not even when this is all over.
We lived in France for a number of years and I’ve sometimes regretted we moved back here but the way Macron has been acting, like some pintsized tyrant, I’m very glad we came back.
Is it me or didn’t the country used to hold some romance, reverie, flair, freedom – the finer things in life? Certainly, it was for me growing up. Now it’s simply a depressing, inward-looking police state riven by conflict and violence. So disappointing. Not sure EU membership has done much for them either (personal perhaps unpopular opinion). On pint-sized tyrants, well, Napoleon was far better than Macron – he didn’t have a Macron complex!
The ‘EU’ is ‘Germany’. That’s what it’s all about, the Germans conquering Europe by stealth, using their money, and gradually turning it all into one big Nazi Fourth Reich.
I also lived in France for ten years. I am horrified at what has happened to that lovely country. I have an acquaintance in France – she gets round the vax passport by going for walks with friends instead of meeting them in a café, taking their own drinks. She doesn’t go to restaurants or cinemas and won’t support any business that discriminates against the unvaxxed.
Having seen what has happened there I am quite happy to never visit again. My money will be spent elsewhere!
Yes. With 26 million unvaxxed in the UK, the French are shooting themselves in the foot by keeping them out.
Against all forms of discrimination – apart from the discrimination against people who are unvaccinated.
Macron is un tete de merde.
Insanity. It’s time to take these evil lunatics on.
Tbf, Micron-penis is married to someone who is in an extremely vulnerable age group. That may have skewed his views a bit about the jabs.
Unless he knew it was a scam!
the “marriage” or covid?
Mirco-penis is married to Birgitte-penis, or so the rumour goes…
Who the fuck would want to go to France anyway while they are cheering for their despot?
Slightly tangential, but has everyone seen this bombshell video from the Canadian Covid Care Alliance on the Pfizer trials? I know it’s been doing the rounds for a few weeks, but I personally only just had a chance to watch. It blows a hole in Pfizer’s dark heart, shows the greed and ethical bankruptcy inherent in modern vaccinology and debunks any reasonable argument for getting vaxxed on safety and efficacy grounds. If 1M people watched this today then the charade would end tomorrow, but, of course, they won’t!
Just more Macron pointless Spite-Fascism.
Just imagine how much money the French hospitality sector is losing! Macron clearly wants it destroyed!
Will the French be dumb enough to vote for their own extinction in the Presidential? With the Media’s help, perhaps.
So much for liberte, egalite, fraternite. Macron est un con.
Up until 2019/20 I’ve skied every year for the past 25 years in France and now I can if I succumb to the clot-shot I can again; FUCK OFF Macron!
My home is in France but I’m in YUK at the moment.
I’m waiting for this coming Saturday, the 15th January, when (unless there’s a miracle) the little shit Macron will get his ‘vaccine pass’ into law. I have an awful feeling that if that’s achieved, entry to France for the un-vaxxed will be banned.
I feel sick to my very stomach that Macron and his cronies have been able to achieve the destruction they have, in France of all places, which has always been anti-vax. Of course, if he achieves the vax pass, I’ve no doubt a full on demonising, hunting down of the un-vaxxed will commence.
Entry into France is already banned for the unvaxxed, unless they have a “compelling reason.” Visiting family is not a compelling reason, unless they are dying. To me, seeing family is an essential reason to travel. I know someone who hasn’t seen her elderly mother for two years and is worried she will never see her again. It’s against human rights. The right to family is a basic human right – how can these rights be trampled on? Where are the lawyers?
Goodbye Macron.
This is really just laughable now. Any fool can see what this discrimination against those of us who have taken a stand about this vaccine is really about. If only the majority of the vaxxed would do the decent thing and stand up for what is right but, oh no, they’ll be enjoying their ski-ing holidays I suppose. Sad that there are so few people who feel that making a few sacrifices for doing the ‘right thing’ is worth it nowadays!
It’s just one government playing off against another. The simple answer is they want to restrict your rights to travel.
France another country like the Uk that depend on tourism. May need to revisit their entry requirements sooner rather than later. Unless the cabal can continue to fund both countries.
I don’t give a toss about France. No desire to set foot in the place.
As far as I’m concerned they can join all the other madhouses, Australia, New Zealand, Canada etc and basically eff off the lot of them.
Who wants visit your stupid countries anyway.
Who the hell wants to travel to a country where Omicron is the President?
