News Round-Up

by Will Jones
14 April 2023 12:45 AM

  • “From the Belly of the Beast…” – Covid vaccine sceptic Madhava Setty attended the 23rd World Vaccine Congress in Washington D.C. and found something akin to a religious convention where speakers seemed as unaware of unfavourable data as they were unwilling to hear about it.
  • “Deaths rise as junior doctors go on strike” – Walkouts are said to be among the reasons that excess fatalities have tripled, according to official figures, the Telegraph reports.
  • “Bankers refusing to return to the office will be punished, warns JP Morgan” – JP Morgan has warned its investment bankers that they will be punished for failing to work in the office as it ordered its senior staff back to their desks five days a week, the Telegraph reports.
  • “What junior doctors really earn” – More than they claim, says Kate Andrews in the Spectator.
  • “What the Bud Light Fiasco Reveals about the Ruling Class” – In Brownstone, Jeffrey A. Tucker connects the Bud Light wokery with the elite attachment to lockdowns.
  • “My son is autistic – I can’t forgive what lockdown did to him” – Writing in the Telegraph, James Horrax says that as the father of a boy with complex needs, he has seen the long and lasting shadow cast by the Government’s Covid restrictions.
  • “‘Disinformation’ network blacklisting conservative news hides tax forms over ‘harassment’” – Two U.S. nonprofit groups tied to the Global Disinformation Index, a British entity blacklisting conservative media outlets, are refusing to disclose key details about their operations, citing an obscure federal exemption law on ‘harassment’, according to a Washington Examiner investigation.

  • “Heat pumps epitomise the economic folly of Net Zero” – The true benefits of Net Zero appear trivial when compared with the massive scale of expenditures required – something seen clearly with heat pumps, writes Professor Gordon Hughes in the Telegraph.
  • “Trans population may have been ‘significantly overestimated’ in 2021 census – raising fears focus on transgender issues is being ‘exaggerated’” – Carl Heneghan said the ONS findings could be “biased” because it does not do fieldwork to test their validity, according to the Mail.

  • “Male GP who wanted to donate blood is turned away by Scottish NHS after he refused to say if he was pregnant as he hits out at question designed to ‘placate the gender-brigade’” – Dr. Steffen McAndrew, 41, booked an appointment at a blood donation centre in Ayr on Tuesday evening, but was told by a nurse he could not continue unless he confirmed he was not carrying a child, the Mail reports.
  • “Shouldn’t they be investigating actual crimes like burglary and violent assault?” – Watch Toby on GB News criticise Essex Police for sending five police officers, who seem to have nothing better to do, to raid a pub for displaying ‘offensive’ dolls behind the bar.

On @GBNEWS yesterday I criticised Essex Police for sending five police offers to raid a pub for displaying 'offensive' dolls behind the bar. Shouldn't they be investigating actual crimes like burglary and violent assault? pic.twitter.com/IYI5jifbeO

I’m confused. I thought the AZ clot shot had been withdrawn from the market? But it’s still in use?🤔 Anyway, I don’t want to sound too judgemental to a bereaved man but let’s just say I’m staggered by the DM article above.😵 Yes, apparently people really are that naive and able to justify their decisions to themselves.🤦‍♀️

Yeah, he and his now sadly dead wife, got the jabs “because they wanted to be able to do things”, and even though he openly and plainly acknowledges the jab literally killed his wife, he’s really not that keen on his 8 year old son getting it…

Cognitive dissonance and Stockholm syndrome = off the charts.

Yes he took 3 in total, 1 AZ then 2 Pfizer after her death. But I think that sadly the people who took the jabs fall into 3 categories: They believed the whole propaganda tripe and got jabbed to save them and grandma from a deadly virus, they got threatened with job loss so took it under duress or they got injected primarily so they could still travel hassle-free and participate in society but didn’t really feel they needed it.
I think he falls into the third category, if I remember, just taking the path of least resistance and not giving any in-depth thought to the matter at all, ignoring all red flags that were glaringly obvious. I suppose at least if people don’t get anymore, that’s the main thing. What’s done is done, I guess.

Morning all…

Yes, it’s a weird read. Lisa Shaw died back in May 2021 when the AZ was still available…but the fact that AFTER she died he still went on to have two more is…well I don’t get it..not on any level.

As has been said, it would seem he obviously knows that the jab killed her, but otherwise thinks it’s safe?…..I’ll never understand?!!

The 2 he got after her death were Pfizer, I thought the article said. So unless he was thinking the problem lay specifically with the AZ jab? That’s what I presume anyway. But I think it’s plain to everyone but the most hardened jab junkie Kool-Aid nut that all the death jabs, irrespective of manufacturer, are responsible for record numbers of deaths and injuries. The guy is in complete denial if he can’t accept these facts.

It might be to do with the roll out of personalised medicine – pharma thinks that by gathering all ort data they will be able to see whose genes cannot “tolerate” their products i.e. one man’s meat is another man’s poison. You might have a “defective” gene which means that AZ would kill you but the fact that it did not kill everyone is evidence that the recipient was to blame not the product… Mad I know.

Another factor is that one dose is not the same as another dose, for a variety of reasons. As Peter McCullough wrote:

“I am routinely asked: why are so many people who took the COVID-19 vaccines apparently fine, while others are suffering heart damage, strokes, blood clots and are ending up disabled or dead? It has been suspected for many months that there may be variations in vaccine lots or batches that could partially explain these observations. In other words, not everyone is getting the same dose of mRNA. Under Emergency Use Authorization, the vaccine companies and their subcontractors do not have any inspections of the final, filled and finished vials. This is unprecedented for a widely used product of any type. It is possible that lipid nanoparticles aggregate in suspension, so some batches may contain more mRNA than others. Likewise, since lot size has varied over time, it is possible that contaminants from the manufacturing process may be concentrated in some smaller lots compared to larger ones. Finally, there may be product transport, storage and use factors that denature mRNA, including heating, air injected into vials and multiple needles dipped into the suspension.”

He omits the possibility that the pharma companies may have deliberately varied the batches for research purposes (to assess lethality levels, for example) or to corrupt the data on vaccine harms.

Yes….I’m just going to add that word ‘yet’…..
We still haven’t entered the long-term phase of the trials ..who knows what will happen in the next five to ten years in relation to the Jag?
Which would normally be the time-scale BEFORE a new drug is given to the public…
As this is the new way..literally…as espoused by June Raine of the MHRA, there will be few safety trials before a product is allowed out into the public… and we will all get to watch the trials unfold in real-time…..
Mental!!

”Jag”? 😮 Isn’t that a very classy car that’s beyond my price range? 😉

There’s also the worrisome fact that now all of these mRNA ‘vaccines’ for other diseases don’t have to undergo biodistribution studies. According to Dr Malone ( I read it on his ‘stack ), now the mRNA platform is in place they can just be churned out en masse, bypassing the many phases of clinical studies regular old traditional vaccines would have to go through before hitting the market. That’s why we can expect more of the same in terms of injuries and deaths going forward. As I recall, many of the ‘vaccines’ that have finished trials are for various cancers and resp diseases, I even saw one for genital herpes! 😮 Since when have we required a vaccine for genital herpes?? See Malone’s substack for the deets..

Yes..I think it was our lovely truculent friend Stewart, bless, who quite rightly pointed out that this whole thing has either been arranged to get the mRNA platform out or has allowed it to be used to push the platform forward as something it really isn’t..i.e safe and effective …rather than the reality, which is that it’s still an experimental gene therapy, with failed studies in the past..and what now looks like a huge failed study in real-time….
I will not be taking one for anything, any time soon….

Mogs, I too am staggered by the Mail article. This Gareth Shaw guy is beyond stupid. In fact I would say he represents a very real danger to his son. After what happened to his wife surely 30 minutes of research would have provided all the evidence he needed to make him realise these injections were dangerous poisons but still he hasn’t managed that.

Obviously, given that his wife worked for the BBC these two must be proper Guardianistas and he is still spouting rubbish – ‘I would never tell anyone not to get the vax.’

This moron should have done the research and promptly teamed up with Dr Aseem Malhorta and started bellowing.

There can be no sympathy for utter fools such as he.

I’ve been feeling sorry for Gareth Eve for almost two years now, since Lisa Shaw was revealed to have died from AZ. Initially I thought that DM article was going to be a hit piece, but it is astounding! Nobody in the initial stages of the jab rollout took it in order to ‘do things’. They all took it because they were blasted with propaganda and essentially brainwashed. The language used by him throughout this article just confirms this.

Indeed. Watching Elon Musc eviscerate one of them is about the most entertaining thing I have seen this year. I would pay to watch that as a spectator sport.

Re the article “My son is autistic – I can’t forgive what lockdown did to him” from the Telegraph, thought people might be interested in this response from the brilliant Bob Moran…
I see the @Telegraph
are trying to highlight the harms of lockdowns on children with additional needs.
Here’s part of the statement I read to them at my disciplinary hearing at the end of 2021.

They told me it was irrelevant and then fired me.

I contacted my local MP, Mr Matt Rodda, regarding the Rasmussen polls that suggest there is a significant level of concern regarding adverse reactions from the COVID ‘vaccines’ among the US public. His reply was as follows: ‘Thanks for sharing this. To be honest I have not had many people contact me with concerns about the covid vaccine, however I shall continue to keep the matter under review.’

I would be grateful if you live in the Reading East constituency and have concerns about the COVID ‘vaccine’ you contact Mr Matt Rodda to let him know your concerns.

His parliamentary e-mail address is mattroddampcasework@parliament.uk

Thanks

Discovering Brownstone has been one of the best things to come out the scamdemic, as far as I am concerned. The Geoffrey Tucker article in the round-up about the Bud-light debacle is well worth reading in full….

“The person who made the miscalculation is Alissa Gordon Heinerscheid, Vice President in charge of marketing for Bud Light. She explained that her intention was to make the beer King of ‘Woke’ beers. She wanted to shift away from the “out of touch” frat party image to one of “inclusivity.” By all accounts, she actually believed this. More likely, she was rationalizing actions that would earn her bragging rights within her social circle. 
Digging through her personal biography, we find all the predictable signs of tremendous detachment from regular life: elite boarding school (Groton, $65K a year), Harvard, Wharton School, coveted internship at General Foods, and straight to top VP at the biggest beverage company in the world. 
She is a perfect symbol of a problem that afflicts high-end corporate and government culture: a shocking blindness toward the mainstream of American life, including working classes and other people less privileged. They are invisible to this crowd. And her type is pervasive in corporate America with its huge layers of management developed over 20 years of loose credit and push for token representation at the highest levels.”

Nail…head….!!

In the name of inclusivity biological test markers will no longer be measured on a male or female scale but on one scale. Biological sex in healthcare blood tests are no longer relevant…. This is where going woke gets you. Patients will die but no-one will have any hurty feelings….
