European Union regulators are preparing to fine Elon Musk’s X up to $1 billion for breaking its notorious Digital Services Act in a move likely to ratchet up tensions with the United States, according to the New York Times.
The penalties are set to include a fine and demands for product changes, said [four people with knowledge of the plans], who declined to be identified discussing an ongoing investigation. These are expected to be announced this summer and would be the first issued under a new EU law intended to force social media companies to police their services, they said.
European authorities have been weighing how large a fine to issue X as they consider the risks of further antagonising Mr Trump amid wider trans-Atlantic disputes over trade, tariffs and the war in Ukraine. The fine could surpass $1 billion, one person said, as regulators seek to make an example of X to deter other companies from violating the law, the Digital Services Act.
EU officials said their investigation into X was progressing independently from tariff negotiations after Mr Trump announced major new levies this week. The investigation began in 2023, and regulators last year issued a preliminary ruling that X had violated the law.
The European Union and X could still reach a settlement if the company agrees to changes that satisfy regulators’ concerns, the officials said.
X also faces a second EU investigation that is broader and that could lead to further penalties. In that investigation, two people said, EU officials are building a case that X’s hands-off approach to policing user-generated content has made it a hub of illegal hate speech, disinformation and other material that is viewed as undercutting democracy across the 27-nation bloc.

“Highest taxes since war”
Blimey, is this a third income tax?
And to pay for the NHS – are they going to reform it as well – and encourage orthomolecular medicine and do something about the excessive influence of Big Pharma on the NHS (and politics) – or would that threaten the profits of their mates too much?
Change your NHS, change your NHS. It’ll take more than throwing money at it to sort out this mess.
Start by sacking every bureaucrat, that will immediately bring the costs down. Also scrap their expensive proceumrent deals where, when I last heard them reported on, they were paying hundreds of quid every time a lightbulb needed changing plus a fortune for typeface artists to make the letters N.H.S look more appealing.

You are right about lightbulbs. When I worked briefly in the NHS I was once quoted £800 to replace one.
The problem with “sack every bureaucrats” is that every time they try it, they bring in new bureaucrats to oversee the process, who instantly go native. The NHS is like the Blob, absorbing all who approach it.
More diversity officers.
Boris Johnson is doing to Labour what Blair did to the Conservatives.
He’s basically implementing the policies of the other party but more moderately.
Lockdown, but not as harshly as Labour would.
Green agenda, but not as extreme as Labour would.
Tax increase, but not as much Labour.
Be the champion of the NHS, but not as rabidly as Labour.
Conservatives will still vote for him because, you know, Labour would be worse.
Labour then needs to tack further left to differentiate themselves making them sound too radical and sending the more moderate lefties towards the waiting arms of the conservatives.
It’s a genius strategy for destroying your political opposition. Not so good for the people and the country itself, but hey, who cares about them.
And it’s a strategy that works best in a political duopoly like the one we have in Britain where no third party really stands a chance.
This is basically the “moderate” fallacy – the idea that there is a party of the left a party of the right and a”moderate” centre ground where all the sensible people are.
It’s what Blair and the Blairites wanted people to believe they were doing, and it’s what the “Conservative” Blairites want you to think they are doing, and since the Bairites control the cultural and media opinion forming organs, that’s what becomes “respectable” received opinion.
But think about what the Blairites actually did to the country. In what way was anything he or his government did “conservative”? They trashed the country’s institutions, removing all obstacles to the modern woke plague, built on their own political correctness ideology. They opened the floodgates to mass immigration on a literally unprecedented scale, that has not been halted since. They pursued the cultural revolutionary goals of the left in different ways from the old dinosaurs of the state socialist left whom they replaced. But they pursued those goals with at least equal vigour and far more success.
As for the current “Conservative” Part, they are not “conservatives adopting some policies of the left as cover to take votes from Labour”. They are Blairies, still actively pursuing the cultural revolutionary goals of the Blairite left.
The reality (as opposed to fantasy) is that Blair sustained the rightward drift under the control of global capital that Thatcher et al. speeded up. What we have is actually the apotheosis of that drift towards capital dominance.
That said – even bowing, as above, to the analysis in the outdated (but realistic version of the post-war spectrum of political definition) – the major point is that the framework is senile in terms of current events. You need to catch up, Mark, and look behind your programmed rhetoric and obsession with immigration.
There is a lot of truth to what you say in the first paragraph. I doubt Thatcher would approve of Blair’s ‘accomplishments’ however.
Large scale immigration is detrimental to the health of a nation. It undermines trust and the state is happy enough to jump into the void.
Of course, many of the state’s restrictions, ID cards and the like, are totally ignored by the immigrants, but adhered to by the natives.
One might wonder, were one German or Swedish, for example, what exactly the point is of ID cards and passports, if your government is hell bent on inviting half the world.
“Control of global capital” & “capital dominance” are examples of post-Marxist twaddle. Just jargon to provide a pretext to twist things into the old pre-1970s leftist world-view.
Rich people, groups and organisations are very powerful, as they always have been. The problem is that most supposed attempts to curtail that power from the old left actually end up empowering them, by regulatory capture, destruction of established institutional resistance, creation of increased state powers which they then get to abuse etc.
By any reasonable measure of right/left – nationalist/globalist, big state/small state, authoritarian statist/economic liberal, traditionalist conservative/radical, the long C20th has been the long victory of the left, which is why we now live in a profoundly illiberal culture (dressing its intolerance up in “woke” clothes), with government more powerful and all-pervadingly interventionist than ever before, with ever more of that interference coming at a supranational level.
We’ve just seen how powerful that leftist dominance has made our elites – capable of deploying state power, and collectivist corporate and “social” media power systematically to propagandise and suppress dissent with unprecedented effect.
“You need to catch up, Mark”
Says the man still stuck in pre-1970s state socialist tropes!
“and obsession with immigration.”
You seem to think it’s tedious to highlight arguably the single most powerfully harmful ongoing force for change in our society. As such you align yourself with power against the powerless, backing the suppression of dissent in the area that is singled out most systematically for dissent suppression of any major social issue in our society.
You’ve missed what’s happened. The NHS carried out a coup in March last year, since when it is the Government.
Naturally our money goes to it now.
Naturally it makes the rules.
Parliament is puppet theatre.
I’m completely serious. That’s where we are.
I’d have said that the advisors are actually the ones calling the shots (SAGE and its assorted acolytes).
Wrong way round.
The NHS doesn’t run the government, the government doesn’t run the NHS. The government and the NHS are one organism along with those entities who supply it.
The Prussians didn’t run the military, the military didn’t run the Prussians, Prussia was a martial nexus.
I made this very point to my wife this morning. The NHS is “too big to fail”. No politician can reduce its power or influence as to do so would be electorally disastrous such are the beliefs of the sheeple.
A good start would be a nominal fee for each primary care consultation from those (like me) who can afford it, plus a ban on recruitment of non patient facing staff. It is ridiculous that two thirds of NHS staff don’t see patients.
At any rate a fee for things where people aren’t going to die without it. I seem to remember that some years ago, there was consternation in some quarters about people having to pay for dentistry. Is there really nothing the NHS spends money on that could go the same way?
Seems pretty unlikely given the info quoted here just the other day:
https://dailysceptic.org/2021/09/06/a-third-of-under-40s-in-england-havent-had-a-single-covid-vaccine-dose/
And that will be of the official population. Presumably could be over a million that they don’t know about.
And I noticed that the other week, ITV “vaccine” tracker reduced the percentage of the adult population it claimed had had one “vaccination”. I assumed that that was because they were erroneously adding under 18s to the figure. Is that right?
In any case, it’ll be millions of people (and some of their family and friends) who will be discriminated against if they do bring in these wretched “vaxports” in a few weeks.
“Is that right?”
No idea. We live in a post-truth, post-information society.
But if they have a reason to exaggerate the figures (and they do), it’s reasonable to assume that the figures probably are exaggerated!
The fact we have a plateau on the graph despite the ID cards threat shows that a good fraction of people have decided not to play the game, we’ll take our rights by whatever means necessary and will not submit to their domestic passports however hard they try. The lack of a sharp upward turn anywhere in the graph, beyond those initial ones when the jab-desperate in each age group get offered it, shows vaccine pasport announcements only entrench stubborn-ness. Also, we must remember, plenty of the vaccinated as well as the unvaccinated will be in the war against vaccine passports. Whatever percentage of people remain unvaccined I think we can assume that same percentage again took the jab but will be happily showing the state just where it can shove domestic passports.
“A” million? The supermarkets put it at many millions, up to ten, and my contacts who go into urban residences report finding many of them wall-to-wall with mattresses and slave labour. Our immigrations numbers have been farcically under-estimated for decades.
“Over a million”. I remember the supermarket claim, but I have no way of verifying the figure, presumably no one else does either and so am being cautious. I dare say possible confounding factors could be thought of. I also remember a story putting the number of UK slaves in the tens of thousands (maybe 15,000?). Is it likely then that the scale of UK slavery is underestimated then? So much for land of the free. And that’s even without considering what we import, or the lockdowns.
There seems to be a significant contradiction between the New Statesman figures and the official data here. The official figures show a much higher percentage with at least one vaccination in the younger age groups e.g. 72% for 18-24 as opposed to about 65% on the NS graph. The official figures are based on 2019 population estimates while the NS is based on 2020 population estimates but that couldn’t possibly account for such a large difference. It is weird. As far as I know, there is only one source of data on number of vaccinations. It is a pity the NS doesn’t provide more detail about how it came up with its figures.
A significant difference yes, but the basic point stands, that a significant number of people will be excluded by “vaxports”. apparently the figure has been put at about 20% in France, and is expected to be a simillar number in the UK.
A number of times, the UK population has been referred to in this comments section as 67 million. It was very nearly 68 million last summer and now stands at
about 68.3 million according to Worldometer, though still not enough to explain the discrepancy. It’s a pity (and some might argue criminal), but it is too often hard to get hold of good statistical information
If only we had a few political leaders with the testicular fortitude to copy the Chinese on that stand!
The late great Christopher Booker was pointing out years ago that China had no intention of following the economic suicide relating to the climate scare exemplified by the Uk’s climate change act. You can guarantee that Britain will never see a return on the money it is wasting on this. Or any noticeable change in the climate.
“You can guarantee that Britain will never see a return on the money it is wasting on this. Or any noticeable change in the climate.”
Of course. These are activities based on faith and superstitious idol appeasement.
The modern equivalent of sacrificial offerings to tribal gods.
As I remember it, even if you accept figures claimed by the IPCC (basically an arm of the UN (which wants to create a global “government) as I understand it) you could still not make a good business case for some of the expenditure proposed to try and change the climate.
I’d go further, and say that the Mandarin Empire is the architect of our suicide. They’ve put the gun in our hands and told us that it’s the right, post-colonial thing to do to blow our brains out.
The communists never did have much concern about a few million deaths to bring about their global utopia. What happened to the Manchurian Empire anyway? (And how long before the CCP tries its luck with the “real” Chinese government in Taiwan)?
Nuked in to respecting human rights might be a good place to start for Jinping’s commie party, then we can bully what are left of that regime about their abysmal record of crimes against the environment as well as against humanity.
Let’s sort this country first. It crumbles by the day.
This is where Gates and China, united on all other fronts, seem to part company.
Can anyone explain?
“The left’s science denial”.
Someone’s not going to like that! 🙂
I remember Christopher Booker used to deride the Guardian’s “Great Moonbat”. Certainly there are problems in science, not least the conflation of real, observational science with, for example, computer models that depend on unproven assumptions.
I think we have a moral duty to refuse the taxes, do whatever is necessary not to pay. This state is not acting in our interests, we must not prop it up.
As for october lockdowns, it is lockdowns that have out the NHS in a mess, if the government tries to attack our civil liberties again, and in a way which given their poor reasoning is now self-prepetuating due to its own effects, they can expect far more than just mass tax refusal.
The pandemic is officially over now. It has served it’s purpose and the perpetrators have got everything they wished for.
It was always about money. All the crowing about the NHS being overrun was always accompanied by cries of “we need more money to cope”.
When NHS administrators saw the cash pouring in through March to June of 2020, they knew they had hit the jackpot. As long as they kept up the pretence of being on the brink of being overwhelmed, the cash would keep rolling. New variants, ICU’s filled to capacity (ignoring complete facilities that lay empty), artificially creating a staff shortage while fully fit staff sat at home on full pay, all designed to keep up the illusion of a system being torn apart through underfunding.
But all the money pumped into the NHS, and ultimately frittered away on wastage, PPE that still sits rotting in shipping containers, IT systems that have swallowed billions and will never function, it was always only going to be temporary. They needed a permanent fix.
With the announcement of the raising of national insurance for both employees and employers, plus the increase in tax on company dividends, they have their permanent fix. The cash will continue to roll in, no matter, so no more need for a pandemic. The government has pretty well given them carte blanche to swallow what they need to maintain their bloated status without any caviat of improvement.
No more need for a pandemic.
At least, not for a year or so while they fritter away this wedge of cash.
Myself along with all sceptics never refer to the “pandemic”, we rightly call it what it is; an hysterical overreaction causing totally unnecessary lockdowns, masks, social distancing, etc which has bought our country to it’s knees and caused unnecessary suffering and mental stress.
I agree that was one aspect of it, and Our NHS has been – successfully, and by design – elevated to the status of a religion which cannot be questioned.
However, there’s far more going on here, and the plandemic will be kept going until the social credit score apps have been inflicted on every level of society.
The purpose is complete control. The agenda is just begun.
“It was always about money”
Of course it was. But not primarily about the NHS, which has followed a line determined politically, and which also suits its agenda for more resources, against a government whose objective is to disguise a lack of planning and resources as vast sums were diverted into the uselessness of furlough, test and trace and masks etc.
It’s the global corporate capital nexus driving it – Big Pharma, Big Tech and their influence over politics.
Any chance the Taxpayers’ Alliance can be given charge of the NHS?
Quite simply, I will not be paying Johnson & Whitty’s Lockdown Tax.
They got us into this mess, they and their ilk can pay for the damage they have caused.
This is Johnson’s Poll Tax moment – on steroids.
In 2009 there were 43,000 Managers in the NHS. In 2021 there are 77,000 ….. and that’s before they recruit the Inclusion and Diversity Managers currently being advertised for.
Shovelling even more money into the badly-managed, over-bureaucratised NHS without fundamental reform will achieve nothing.
Sadiq Khan’s 400 mask ‘Enforcement Officers’ have ejected just 53 people from TFL services between July 21 and September 2, 2021. Another 220 people were refused entry to a service or station, according to his own figures. So in six weeks that’s less than one person for each of the staff he has patrolling TFL’s buses and tubes at all hours, as he claims. What a waste of money.
They are religious police. Don’t worry, they’ll transition into enforcing sharia soon enough.
Please develop an understanding of Sharia before you use it so disparagingly. Especially an understanding of it’s true spirit, not it’s misapplication by a few extremists. Before you categorise me I’m a Buddhist but respect all Faiths.
Don’t worry, it’s the same with mediaeval, which was in fact a time of tremendous progress taken as a whole.
These 53 people are either idiots who can’t pronounce the word exempt, or radical resistance fighters who were trying to make their point.
Covid is an Altar politicians appear willing to die on, lets hope it happens sooner rather than later. We all know its a Farce to cover up the grab on wealth and land.
A discussion I read on a technical American board suddenly started to make a lot of sense about what has been happening.
We know that Pharmaceutical companies have been working on respiratory virus vaccines for many years, and believed that they could offer an effective response to Covid. It turns out that mass vaccination during an epidemic does not work well due to mutations – but I’m sure that the initial proposals to suppress the epidemic were made in good faith.
However, the vaccines were only given ‘Emergency’ authorisation. Emergency authorisation is valid depending on a number of conditions being true – one of which is that THERE ARE NO EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS. The minute that there are effective alternative treatments, the authorisation has to be withdrawn, and the vaccine has to go through the usual safety test regime, which takes some years.
So, for the vaccines to retain their authorisation, no other treatment must be available and authorised. That would be fine – any newly-developed medicine would need to go through the same multi-year safety process to get authorised – but unfortunately there were several effective treatments ALREADY SAFTEY-TESTED – HCQ and Invermectin, for example.
IF these treatments are fully authorised for Covid, THEN all the vaccinations lose their emergency authorisation. Which neatly explains why the pharmaceutical industry and the vaccine establishment are halting any formal approval of these pre-existing medicines, which have already passed safety testing.
Of course. But I do contest that :
“the initial proposals to suppress the epidemic were made in good faith”
That rat smell is too strong.
Literally no effective alternative treatments – or simply not enough to meet the demands of an “emergency” situation.
In any case, it would be a typical shabby trick by the pharmaceutical industry, from my experience. A similar thing happened with apricot kernels, which I’d been taking for years with no problems, and one day a notice appeared on the packaging that they were no longer allowed to be sold as a food following an EU decision, after a long smear campaign and pressure from the pharmaceutical industry.
‘Highest taxes……etc.”
……..until the next massive tax rise to provide more huge subsidies to a laughably mismanaged health service.
And so we stagger on, dragging this massive millstone behind us.
This is not brave or decisive. It is yet more pandering to the public sector.
This will never end until swingeing reform is tied to future subsidy.
There is another way:
‘Universal Healthcare Without The NHS’
IEA
And we ain’t seen nothing yet: just wait till the eco-loon taxes start to really hurt!
“This will never end until swingeing reform is tied to future subsidy.”
This will never end until there is a party that actively represents the non-state sector, and that party gets elected.
Otherwise, who will run and administer the “swingeing reform” but the very panjandrums most responsible for the mess?
we have labour shortages apparently. this is great – it means wages will have to go up, people pay more tax and take less benefits. things in shops will cost a bit more but that’s fine – normal people will make a living by doing normal jobs.
the usual suspects will clamour for a slave class of imported cheap workers that need subsidising by the rest of us. but we really had these arguments in the lead up to the american civil war and don’t need to have them again
A labour shortage in an overpopulated world? Hmm, something doesn’t add up…
The thing is, the elderly population is increasing at 1950’s rates – faster really, because the elderly now live much longer – and the most productive population aged 18 to 50 are increasing much more slowly, and even decreasing in some places (including apparently in China, which may yet derail their global takeover bid). This is presumably why there appear to be covert efforts to reduce the elderly population, including those we have seen in the last 18 months.
Much of the West has basically outsourced child rearing to the third world (and coal mining for that matter). China has outsourced producing wives…
The world being overpopulated is a myth propagated by the Optimum Population Trust and their ilk using specious criteria. By any reasonable measure there are plenty of resources available in the world and indeed potentially beyond it in the long term. The elite have been moaning about “reducing the excess population” since Malthus, as Charles Dickens famously noted, but the large population growth of the 20th century saw unprecedented improvements in the standard of living globally, compared to the current shambles as the demographic crisis of an ageing population starts to bite.
The Tories were talking about ‘levelling up’ and ‘Those Just Managing’ actually before Johnson, They were also commenting favourably on Sharia law, which is concerning when we see the dinghy’s rolling in. Its a misnomer calling them Tories when they are really Blairites and have been since Blair. If there are any real Tories left they seem to be have been sucked into the media narrative that all of this is what the public want
So should Tony Blair P.M. as “I’m tory plan B” really be the other way round?
Some people have ‘superhuman’ ability to fight off COVID-19 after prior infection AND two vaccine doses, new study findsAfter both a prior COVID-19 infection and two vaccine doses, some people’s immune systems develop super-ability to respond to the virus. Researchers call this ‘superhuman immunity.‘
This (online) front page DM story reads like yet more propaganda bullshit.
But you’d need the time and money to employ qualified people to go through its bullshit professionally in detail, to debunk it (“hybrid vigour immunity” LOL!) Meantime, it’s another pierce of media manipulation seen by millions to try to push them into complying.
what about people with just a prior COVID-19 infection and no vaccine doses.
I bet they have the same “superhuman” ability. Probably even more superhuman, in fact.
Yes, I couldn’t get to the study because the page reloads constantly, but it looks as though the truth of natural immunity has gained some traction since the Israeli study, and so they’re trying a new spin to sell Pfizer.
“Superhuman”
Inhuman.
It reduces your risk to less than zero!
And those who were alreday immune due to exposure to other coronaviruses. And those who caught it but had few or no symptoms, rendering it a non-issue (which includes most kids and younger adults).

Thank you for posting that link! The article is wonderfully well written.
“Medium impact influenza strain”.
My working assumption has been that “Covid” is within the bounds of a severe ‘flu season. How accurate is this assumption then? And might this bug become more of a problem than necessary due to the unprecedented and extraordinary measures of mass vaccination of the healthy population and NPI’s affecting the way this bug breeds?

Perspective.
Just a general passing thought re. the use and abuse of data re. the real world impact of Covid mortality.
A lot of debate – accepted on all sides – is the steep curve re case fatality rates with age. Being in the 70-79 age bracket, it is of interest for me to see the actual increase in mortality between that age bracket and the average amongst those infected in order to get some perspective.. The figure is 6%. Remember – much debate about vaccines focuses on the aged and vulnerable.
I think the Corporal Jones nostrum is appropriate, particularly since that percentage assumes you’ve actually contracted an live virus causing symptoms.
Boris reminds me very much of Ted Heath. The only difference is Europe.
Boris is similarly arrogant and dismissive on the free-thinking side of the Tory party, and appears more at home with left wing, big state policies which most Tories disagree with.
He is big state and subservient to unions (mostly the teaching unions) just as Heath was pushed around by the unions (mostly the miners).
The governments were pretty chaotic and economically, both will be written into history as disasters.
He is Donald Trump but with his own hair.
Thanks to him, just like Trump, his party will swallow absurdities they would have been screaming about and correctly screaming about if the opposition had done it.

Informed consent disclosure to vaccine trial subjects of risk of COVID-19 vaccines worsening clinical disease
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ijcp.13795
Results of the study
COVID-19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralising antibodies may sensitise vaccine recipients to more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated. Vaccines for SARS, MERS and RSV have never been approved, and the data generated in the development and testing of these vaccines suggest a serious mechanistic concern: that vaccines designed empirically using the traditional approach (consisting of the unmodified or minimally modified coronavirus viral spike to elicit neutralising antibodies), be they composed of protein, viral vector, DNA or RNA and irrespective of delivery method, may worsen COVID-19 disease via antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). This risk is sufficiently obscured in clinical trial protocols and consent forms for ongoing COVID-19 vaccine trials that adequate patient comprehension of this risk is unlikely to occur, obviating truly informed consent by subjects in these trials.
Conclusions drawn from the study and clinical implications
The specific and significant COVID-19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, in order to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.
1 THE RISK OF ADE IN COVID-19 VACCINES IS NON-THEORETICAL AND COMPELLING
Vaccine-elicited enhancement of disease was previously observed in human subjects with vaccines for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), dengue virus and measles.1 Vaccine-elicited enhancement of disease was also observed with the SARS and MERS viruses and with feline coronavirus, which are closely related to SARS-CoV-2, the causative pathogen of COVID-19 disease.
