Lesson 1 in how to ensure workers continue to work from home and entirely bankrupt the rail services.
Way to go rail unions. Dumb union leaders who can’t think their way out a wet paper bag.
Followed swiftly by:
You would imagine that might be a clue to the utterly dense union leaders, but no, it’s the well worn extortion tactics that appeals to them. It’s all they know.
Was it union action that helped get you your pension?
Probably/almost certainly, several decades ago, but something happened to unions in the last few decades and they do seem to have become corrupted/self-interested as organisations … perhaps as a result of Thatcher’s attack on them … or perhaps because, as Ivan Illich has written about, institutions almost always tend towards having a life of their own, including prioritising their own survival, an agenda which takes over the individuals working in them.
Thatcher didn’t attack the unions, she confronted them.
When I first started working I was required to regularly visit nationalised industries.
It was shocking how many workers were idle for most of the day. Literally sitting around drinking tea. All unionised, usually closed shops, and the union leaders literally extorting money from workers, openly stealing as much as they wanted whilst management watched, and choosing their own hours to work (very few).
I remember when Maggie died, she was defended by the writer Ian McEwan, who produced a list of totally idiotic BS regulations that she had abolished. McEwan, as I understand, was no fan of Mrs T. But he had sense enough to recognise that she had made many lives easier by hacking away red tape.
No. It was investment action.
The money pumped into the railways went to the private companies running the trains.
Why shouldn’t railway workers/employees ask for more money and better working conditions? With the cost of petrol having risen by 70%, a 10% pay rise isn’t going to cover that!
Of course they should ask.
The issue is what happens when they don’t get it.
An adult would look for better work elsewhere. An entitled infant would throw its toys out of the pram and demand to be paid to do nothing.
Actually the subsidies for the rail industry went into land-title prices near train stations.
They’re too busy working out how to increase their already obscene salary levels
all part of plan to make sure that you don’t go further than 5 k from your home
And… it’s another government exercise in creating the illusion of consensus:
https://consult.defra.gov.uk/companion-animal-welfare-and-sentience/consultation-on-cat-and-dog-microchipping-leg/
https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/cat-and-dog-microchipping-consultation
First they came for the dogs (etc), then they came for the cats (etc) then they came for me….
Closing Friday 20th May.
And also… it’s another rabbit hole.
https://catsherdyou.com/pet-microchips-cancer-know-facts/
Now that’s interesting.
Dont forget the key role the treasonous Police are playing in the roll out of microchipping animals, clearly a precursor to warm people up to be chipped themselves, as we observe taking place in Sweden. This is an agenda. Full stop. And we see the Police running relentless terrorism campaigns about DOG CRIME IS ON THE INCREASE. Hands up who is NOT aware that DOG CRIME IS ON THE INCREASE. Weve all seen the signs. Weve all seen the news reports. Its all coming from the Police – a FREEMASONIC ORGANISATION WORKING TOWARDS THE GOALS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER POWER PLAYERS – AGAINST THE INTERESTS OF THE CITIZENS OF THE UK WHO PAY THEIR WAGES – running psyops on the public to soften them up and braintrain them into surrendering to this crap. Theyre not Police, theyre an ugly social engineering army working for the Freemasons
Grow up. Cops go to work, do their job, then go home after a long day, just like you. Most of them are married, have kids, dogs and mortgages just like you.
They suffer the cost of living rise just like you, pay inflated fuel costs just like you and have a pint down the pub just like you.
Unlike you they are held to a standard from the day they are sworn in until they retire, not just when they are working but 24/7/365.
There are a few bad apples, as in any walk of life, but of the millions of police hours worked every day in the UK, there are very few.
Most cops wouldn’t know what a Mason was if one jumped up and bit them.
And if there’s only one thing they turn up for work every day to do, it would be for the satisfaction of catching a criminal.
The most frustrating part of the job is watching said criminal leaving court with a pat on the head.
Sort out our government and bleeding heart societal wasters before having a go at the cops. It’s people like you who squeal like a pig when your child is caught nicking something, instead of taking the brat home from the nick and dishing out your own punishment.
This would be a lot more credible if it said which school this was. Looked at that article, and the Times article. The school isn’t named. Teachers are anonymous. Why? Normally when there are incidents of this kind, the school is in the papers, there are statements from named headteachers etc.
The young woman in question is currently preparing for her A levels. It’s understandable that she doesn’t want to be doxxed and hounded at this exact moment.
Don’t worry though – the thug Owen Jones is on the case.
The right to privacy in the UK is not just a luxury, it’s a legally enforceable right, particularly with children.
How about your kids name, school and address was plastered over the front page of the media for saying what is self evidently true.
“Family take legal action after son, 26, died after AstraZeneca jab” – The heartbroken family of 26-year-old graduate Jack Hurn, who died from “catastrophic” blood clots on his brain two weeks after he received an AstraZeneca vaccine are considering legal action, the Mail reports.
This is a terrible story of a young man assured that the jab was “safe”, after expressing his concern. Those concerns were dismissed.
By cowardly and incompetent doctors and a tyrannical and callous regime.
Article at Zero Hedge about another/second spike in neonatal deaths in Scotland. First spike was in September, this one was in March.
https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/investigation-launched-after-mystery-surge-deaths-newborn-babies
The mtax the unvaccinated’ article is absolutely scandalous. It concludes: ‘In the end, we believe there is a serious case for considering taxes based on vaccination status, as such taxes are in the end not that different from current taxes on risky behaviour.’
The authors think the tax is justified even if the vaccine sometimes causes serious harm to the recipient.
And there is no attempt whatsoever to examine the assumption that the unvaccinated cause harm to others. None. None.
And this is from the University of Oxford. But let’s remember that the University of Oxford once burned three bishops to death for challenging a murderously despotic government. The thugs have form..
The premise is appalling. Let’s talk about forcing people to take injections that might injure them and see whether or not we think it’s a good idea.
This is a political act. They published their discussion. They must know that there are those in positions of power who will relish it and might act upon it.
Perhaps they might like to discuss another proposition: That those who provide arguments for forcible injections which might well seriously injure or kill people should be charged with incitement to criminal violence. Discuss.
It shows how many mentally ill people, their minds utterly deranged by leftism, are in working in academia now.
Taxing people based on gene therapy status is just another way of begging men to rise up and clear this vermin out once and for all.
Based on what they’ve got away with, worldwide, in the past couple of years, I’m pretty sure the vermin are secure… and they know it?
Let’s hope it stays as just talk because this idea is obviously scandalous. I haven’t read the article above on principle as I fail to see any “pros” to this bullshit at all! If this can somehow be twisted enough to be justified then I’m all for obese people, smokers and those who live a generally unhealthy lifestyle getting taxed more. The latter is something being talked about at the moment in the Netherlands with regards to health insurance. At least this argument genuinely does have some pros and cons. But penalising people based on what medicines they choose to put in their bodies, especially ones with a now proven track record of being both unsafe and ineffective? Beyond absurd!
It is poorly written, robotic in style and lacks any logical foundations. It fails to address actual accounting for costs if they exist at all. It clearly doesn’t bother looking at any data.
it is scandalous and I am considering writing to this glorified Oxford think tank.
Looking at the authors bios you can se their links to climate, sustainability nonsense as well as behavioural science of manipulating populations.
They are the bots that run the system of technocracy. When you read what they do, you realise you don’t need a cadre of secret behind-the-scenes evil people manipulating the world, there’s an army of these autistic fucks working together to control us and take away our rights and freedoms.
These are the droids:
Alison Pirlot: alice.pirlot@sbs.ox.ac.uk
Kristoffer Berg: kristoffer.berg@sbs.ox.ac.uk
We are going to need a revolution to change direction….
People like Pirlot and Berg make a strong argument very similar to the Nazi policy of Confiscatory Taxation of Jewish Property and Income – i.e. here is a subgroup we don’t like very much, so they will be financially punished.
They seem like really nice people.
Write them. See how they justify their arguments vs data. Might be entertaining. Could be worthwhile mentioning Nuremberg.
I may do.
Left wing academics are hilarious.
They haven’t the brains to recognise that they are always the first to be dragged off to the gulag ‘come the revolution’.
I’m on the Autism Spectrum and I don’t think that there is any basis for your reference to “autistic f***s” in particular being responsible for these ideologies/campaigns. Yes, people on the spectrum may have tendency to want/need to control their environments etc, however they are not very often the people in power, nor do they tend to be any good at influencing people.
They are far more likely to be used by neurotypicals including sociopaths who are good at social networking etc and are looking for ways to increase their portion of power, eg plausible justifications etc.
Don’t just consider it AYM – Do it! write the letter – write it for all of us.
Had encounter last weekend with wokish guardian reader in favour of all this and planning to move to Vancouver. It will all end in tears
As far as I can see, it’s the vaccinated who tend to require more medical assistance than the unvaccinated.
Over jabbed children with sensitivities, allergies, gut issues, neurological issues, for adults it’s cancers, dementia etc, all these things seem to have increased with increased exposure to prophylactic medical treatments.
If many of these issues are actually arising because the medical system has been messing with your immune system since you were 8 weeks old, then perhaps it would be more appropriate to punish those responsible for this assault on humanity?
If they pull the tax the unvaxed trick, my business income will suddenly drop below the tax threshold, and they’ll get nowt.
Oxford Universty is clearly under the control of the criminals running these scams. How do you think Tommy Robinson gets gigs there. The BIG CLUB in action
One good bit of news – it was put out on Twitter and it was absolutely trashed apparently, into virtual oblivion, so it would appear that some are beginning to stir now!
The rate at which the vaxxed are dropping off, the unvaxxed will soon be the only ones left to pay tax anyway.
It’s from the Said arms dealer funded school of “business”…
off-g found some conflicts of interest…
https://off-guardian.org/2022/05/17/big-pharma-funded-paper-recommends-taxing-the-unvaccinated/
Surely a PROPER School of business should maintain that the JABBED should be funded by those who want to be jabbed..
More Tax is the default position of the left as the answer to everything.
It’s clear for all to see that a gargantuan class-action lawsuit must be brought against the regime’s puppets in Westminster. Their outright and rank lies about how the gene therapy was “safe and effective” have injured, maimed and killed masses of people and they must be made to pay for it with massive fines and life sentences.
Exactly. These victims cannot just be written off as mere ‘collateral damage’ or an ‘extremely rare’ case anymore. I haven’t read it yet but this young guy will of course been at no risk from dying due to getting Covid. Instead the much-lauded novel jab, the thing that was touted as our “way out of the pandemic” and all-round saviour against a “deadly” cold virus killed him in this terrible irony. Just the fact that any other new medicine/vaccine would have been pulled off the market at a tiny fraction of the deaths and injuries these things are responsible for tells you all you need to know about how much our governments and the regulators care about public health and the agenda they value more than human lives. We’re just statistics to them. As faceless as a herd of cattle.
Honestly, these tradgedies need to be happening to the scum who are responsible. It’s always the wrong people, the innocent, regular folk, whose only crime was being gullible, that are affected.
Oops, *tragedy*. Fat fingers alert!
Okay, I’ll be that guy…
Edit: earworm alert!
LOL, at least it wasn’t Steps!
I think those who were told they needed to get jabbed or lose their job ( and as a result, their home, car, ability to support their family etc ) might beg to differ. Not much of a “choice” really is it?
Indeed. But from a legal point of view it may be viewed this way. A civil case in France where a man died and the wife sued the insurance company for payout concluded he had committed suicide as he voluntarily took an experimental drug.
Recent Robert Malone:
Dr. Malone Father of mRNA Jab: Global COVID Summit, VAIDS , Global Takeover, WHO Pandemic Treaty
https://www.bitchute.com/video/RhDS65yuBj9q/
There are major question marks over the validity of virology as a science, spreading of disease etc which deserve proper scrutiny, not mocking and sneering. Despite that Malone has an important voice in this and he has stood up for justice and put himself out there, which is to be applauded. He is directly calling out the World Economic Forum which has successfully installed a load of treasonous scumbags in govermments all over the world – including in the UK – fake lying traitors like Boris Johnson or whatever his non stage name is and many others.

https://threadsirish.substack.com/p/who-would-have-guessed-that-every?s=r
You make reference to his ‘stage name’ which we all know is Boris Johnson. If he has signed documents [including any incriminating ones re jabs lockdown laws etc etc] using his stage name, does this get him off the hook if he is ever sued or prosecuted, when they would legally have to use his real name, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel (or whatever it is) Johnson?
just wondering.
It must surely soon be time to start a serious discussion about how we clear out the small elite doing this to us and restore our democracy. We need to be having this conversation with out friends and families and anyone else who will listen. These people have to go and the ballot box is no longer an option because each one is bought and paid for by the same people.
It is fantasy to believe our woes are the result of a small elite muscling their way into power. That they represent some foreign element at odds with society.
Most would go along with an antivaxxer tax as it reassures the jabbed they did the right thing. It feels good. The very fact they allowed themselves to be injected in the first place tells you all you need to know.
We have sat back as various governments have introduced minimum pricing on alcohol, suggested sugar and fat taxes, and now openly discuss online censorship for our own good.
These people reflect the views of many, and all of them vote. That is the really horrifying thing.
30% obey, 50% question but obey, 20% disobey. That is human society. The 80% will be directed by any elite in control of mass media and norm-formation. We have an elite that supports globalism, we need an elite than believes in nation-states.
I’d argue something similar. 20-30% reject, a similar number are true believers. The rest conform.
So yes, a small number can change a nation.
THIS IS SOMETHING GB NEWS HAS TO DISCUSS AND CALL OUT BEFORE IT TAKES HOLD AS UK POLICY
The Tories moved to the left of Blair in the 90s and have been utterly worthless ever since. The Tories offer zero salvation to any person in Britain who loves their nation and has pride in its traditions and values. With some very notable exceptions, the Tories are despicable.
There is no political solution to any of this. Until people accept this there is no hope.
Agreed. Trump and Brexit were two spirited attempts to recapture policy control by grassroots movements via the ballot box. They failed because in neither case was the elite replaced.
Much of what we see today, the passports, censorship and control measures are a response to Brexit and Trump. They were genuine popular movements. And that rattled the powerful. They had it all sewn up.
Biden is a Trump plant.
I think he’s just a plant.
Well, perhaps a vegetable.
Take a second to imagine being a healthy 26 year-old man who is lied to by the government and his doctors, and possibly bullied by his contemporaries, to take a novel cell therapy he doesn’t need, and then is killed by it. And then times that by thousands of cases across the country.
This is an outrage that must be answered.
A healthy 26 year old child. A 26 year old adult has enough experience of life to make their own informed decisions and live (or die) with the consequences whether it’s being disfigured with multiple tattoos, under the wheels of a lorry on an electric scooter, £20k in debt on credit card etc. There are enough serious threats to our traditional way of life without wasting effort on the lost – sad but ultimately true.
Yes a competent adult needs to do their own risk assessment and take personal responsibility. It’s not an excuse but I think the explanation is so often naivety. Most are not only naive about trusting the authorities, who repeat mantra-like “safe and effective” and continually fraudulently refer to these products as “vaccines”, but they’re also naive in that they know some people have experienced nasty side effects but they convince themselves that such a thing will never happen to them.
I feel that if the true extent of the adverse effects and deaths linked to these injections were actually known, ( we’re talking ‘ideal world’ here, where they’d be widely published in the msm, for example ) as opposed to being suppressed, covered up and ignored, people would be able to do an accurate risk/benefit analysis and therefore decide if it was worth playing Russian roulette with their health. As it stands people are being decieved due to the complete lack of transparency in both the dire safety profile and huge inefficacy of the jabs, therefore they have a false sense of security.
How can he have done a risk assessment when he wasn’t fully informed?
It’s symptomatic of the infantilisation of the UK population that anyone (adult over 16) thinks it safe or reasonable to outsource risk assessment on personal issues such as health to a third party. I dispute that anyone didn’t have the information to make an informed decision and instead they acted out of motives that they now conveniently blame on others.
Wouldn’t part of a risk assessment about something novel be to avoid that thing until ‘fully informed’ is a possibility?
Take a second to imagine being a healthy 26 year-old man who is lied to by the government, and possibly bullied by his contemporaries, to wear a military uniform in service of a lie, sent abroad to kill foreigners for the benefit of a finance ruling elite, and then is killed by it. And then times that by thousands of cases across the country.
How the NHS works …
Actually, based on the last year or two, that’s wrong. They’ve been given a heap of money to get the job done and, instead of employing more Dave’s, who actually do the work, they’ve brought in even more managers
My speculation on the matter is that HMG policy is to draw the cell therapy scandal out for as many years as possible, hopefully poke the bear a few more times in Eastern Europe until a bigger conflict kicks off, and then when that’s finally over in 2030, hand out some peanuts to those injured while deadcatting it out of news as much as possible.
Is that about right, Boris?
I don’t know why you are asking Boris. He hasn’t a clue and couldn’t give a shit about it anyway (so long as his bank accounts get fatter). Klaus has the answers.
The vaccinated must be given hope of salvation before it’s too late. The virus was only a pretext, this is about global compliance. More pain will come to those who participate in this deception.
I’m thinking the transfer of nation-states’ health policies in the event of a future pandemic to the WHO is also another litmus test – to see how much sovereignty the plebs will let them steal.
What do the plebs do? One thing that has become obvious these last few years is how few avenues we can pursue.
I’ve watched as they have targeted my city for woke statue toppling. Every local councillor is on board as far as I can tell. Writing to them is pointless.
One tiny example. But indicative of the whole.
So nothing to do with printing hundreds of billions of pounds and paying people to sit at home and do nothing then?
People barely understand arithmetic never mind economics. If they are told their Gran froze to death because Putin is Hitler, they’ll believe it
I had a proponent of a windfall tax on energy tell me that letting children starve and pensioners freeze was evil so he proposed a solution of making both energy and goods rarer and more expensive.
What??? No, no no…ignore all that…look away…c’mon, look over here, not over there….it’s the “WAR” I’m telling you!!!

“Lord King warns that Covid money-printing spree and low interest rates were major errors”
The Same Lord King that completed missed the Great Financial Crisis, and was caught flatfooted like a rabbit in headlights.
Why would we think his counsel is any use?
The money-printing spree was indeed a horrific error. Low interest rates were a horrific error.
Only to those who are hard of accounting.
Paying anybody free taxpayers money for doing nothing is bad economics at any point in the cycle. Which is why base rates should be zero and no ‘government debt’ issued.
If you want to hold a bank deposit for no income, feel free. But you’re not going to be swapping that for a state debt instrument that taxpayers have to fund.

Looks like the Cognitive Dissonance has got too much even for the BBC and they’ve finally had to admit that the Mairupol Ukrainian soldiers have surrendered to the Russians.

Traitor Jeremy Vine – the liar on Radio 2 who has been instrumental in pulling off the convid scam and scamming, terrorising and brainwashing innocent well meaning British men women and children into signing up for a weaponised gene therapy injection programme which is causing injury and death which is then covered up by said scumbag, Jeremy Vine. Anyway, the pernicious Jeremy VIle has another piece of dirt in form the Police who is about to announce how speeding should be treated like a serious criminal offence and how motorists should BE ENCOURAGED to video and record road “crimes” and report them to the police, thius further making the UK an Orwellian surveillance intensive paranoid police state society. Get these pieces of shit out NOW!
The western MSM’s denotation for the forces besieged inside the Azovstal steel plant has been changing, from “Ukrainian soldiers” to “Ukrainian fighters” to “Ukrainian militants”.
Well the neo-Nazi Azov Regiment (formerly known as the Azov Battalion) is not paramilitary any more. It’s a part of the Ukrainian army. They are soldiers.
And all the signs are that there have been substantial numbers of foreign mercenaries inside that plant too, almost certainly including Israelis.
How many times can you remember Israel being asked to mediate between two other powers? Nobody ever asks them to mediate. Nobody would trust them.
Take a look at this article at the Zionazi website “Forward”:
https://forward.com/fast-forward/502628/jews-fought-at-mariupols-azovstal-plant-question-depends-40/
Scraping the very bottom of the barrel, they quote one “scholar” as being offended when someone remarks on how some Jews have funded and fought alongside neo-Nazis such as the Azov Regiment. She finds it offensive when someone who isn’t Jewish talks about who a good Jew is.
You have to unpick that. Nobody has said that helping neo-Nazis makes someone a bad Jew. Who cares about such an absurd concept? What it makes them is a bad human being. And of course if they are also into being a Zionist, then given that a large part of the Zionist ideology for many decades has rested on ideas about the mass murder of Jews by the racist German regime in the early 1940s, then of course they are disgusting hypocrites in that particular context.
But oh no, the said “scholar” doesn’t like that one bit. She doesn’t think anyone who isn’t ethnoreligiously X themselves should dare point out that someone who is ethnoreligiously X is a bad person and an outrageous hypocrite.
Frankly, who is someone who supports the existence of Israel to criticise Nazis on some kind of universal human grounds? That in itself is the utmost hypocrisy. It’s also hypocritical to scream and shout that “Israel has the right to defend itself”, when no western politician dare say the same thing about the Palestinians. (Besides, Israel “defending itself” usually means massacring civilians, often civilians who have become refugees after their homes were stolen.)
I doubt Israel has been in an especially strong position regarding Azovstal. What has probably happened is that they have made concessions in order to get some of their soldiers out. These concessions probably include telling their puppet government in Kiev to free some Russian POWs.
It is interesting – and a good thing – that those who are coming out of Azovstal are being checked by the Russian army, the forces of the Donetsk republic, or both.
Legally mercenaries are not entitled to be treated as POWs, but let us hope of course that all soldiers and anybody else who comes out of Azovstal, whoever they are, including if they are Israeli or British or Hitler lovers or some combination – whether their favourite tattoos are swastikas or the Star of David or something else – are treated with humanity.
