Welcome to episode 38 of the Weekly Sceptic – live from the Emmanuel Centre in London!
The first ever Weekly Sceptic Live was a huge success. The event was sold out, and the feedback was amazing. Massive thanks to everyone who came along.
Nick opens the show with five minutes of comedic genius, then Nick and Toby discuss:
- Meghan and Harry’s alleged car chase
- The continued fallout from NatCon
- Insane immigration levels under the Tories
- The closure of Triggernometry’s bank account
- The rapid decline of Radio 4 (to unexpected cheers from the crowd!)
They then move to Birdwatch, focusing on Elon Musk’s recent interview, followed, of course, by ‘Peak Woke’.
Daily Sceptic Editor Will Jones makes a special appearance, as does a highly famous mystery guest (you will have to listen to find out who!).
The show ends with a Q&A, featuring some unsurprisingly intelligent questions from you, our wise and discerning audience.
A great night, and a great podcast that is well worth a listen whether you were there or not!

So, now we know (if we didn’t already), these lethal policies increased deaths – and there is a protest about it tomorrow (Saturday).
I received an e-mail from The White Rose about it, with the message that the location was to “be announced”. However, I’m not on Telegram, don’t have a smart (arse) phone, so – is there any point travelling down from the North on the off chance for the London demo? And if I do, how will I find it?
Nb this survey does not include countries in Africa such as Zimbabwe, so it is probably not including many deaths due to starvation in the third world resulting from these (genocidal?) lockdown policies and restrictions. (And yes, I saw the article saying that “their” plan included deaths by starvation).
“is there any point travelling down from the North on the off chance for the London demo? And if I do, how will I find it?”
Yes! As soon as you get to a tube station, you will see others clearly heading for the demo. I come in from the west and always meet groups of people at the tube station. And if you head for Hyde Park Corner, you will not go far wrong.
Thanks. Now for parking…
HOC it is.

Another Exhibit for Nuremberg II.
The deductions these people make are dazzling in their penetration:
.
existing studies suggest that SIP policies led to a reduction in non-COVID-19 health care, which might have contributed to an increase in non-COVID-19 deaths.
My bold.
And not only do they believe in the Ho,ply Snake Lil, but they obviously want coercion to force it into everybody.
The mouse that roars becomes the jackal that yaps.
Holy Snake Oil.
The devil id in my typing, as usual.Mea oleagina culpa.
I liked the original version!
Data showing lockdowns don’t work! THEY won’t let such trivialities derail the Great Reset, obvs! Onward and downward, everyone!
When exactly did it become obligatory to have to have an ‘expert’ think tank tell us what we already knew before it becomes OK to think it?
At sometime over the last couple of decades or so the human race has lost its f***ing mind.
Not really: it’s still there but 90% of the population are now Homo Non Sapiens – those who find thinking too effortful!
‘Let’s be clear. The lockdowns weren’t adopted on the basis of any scientific research. It was pure panic and herd mentality from our political leaders and health care experts. They were idiots and they should admit their idiocy, so that we don’t repeat the same mistake in the future.’
https://healthy-skeptic.com/2021/06/23/lockdowns-dont-work-period/
‘The lockdowns implemented in the name of public health entailed trade-offs that were not adequately considered. Lockdowns may prevent some COVID-19 deaths by flattening the curve of cases and preventing stress on hospitals. At the same time, lockdowns cause severe adverse effects for many millions of people, disproportionately for those already disadvantaged among us. The collateral damage included severe losses to current and future wellbeing from unemployment, poverty, food insecurity, interrupted preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic healthcare, interrupted education, loneliness and deterioration of mental health, and intimate partner violence. The economic recession has been framed as the economy vs. saving lives from COVID-19, but this is a false dichotomy. The economic recession, through austerity in government spending on the social determinants of health, can be expected to cause far more loss of life and wellbeing over the long-run than COVID-19 can. We must open up society to save many more lives than we can by attempting to avoid every case (or even most cases) of COVID-19.’

Nailed it!
The study also found that painting your arse sky blue didn’t make polar bears extinct in Arizona.
Can we test that on Bozo though?
Bozo should be exiled to Michael Moore’s underpants.
Unless one was dealing with a plague- or Ebola-like disease, it was always thus and very obvious from the start to anyone with an IQ above 50.
The net QALY loss in each lockdown country alone has been put by various scientists at multiples of 100x to 250x, and that leaves the toll of our lockdowns s in the 3rd world aside.
Britons will eventually have the responsibility for having killed around 5 million people there, on par with the Holoaust’s toll, Germans even more, Americans around 30+million people, on par with Stalin’s murders (120 million dead allocated by rounded up share of World GDP).
But then, maybe that’s the whole point of them anyway.
“to anyone with an IQ above 50.”
I think one needs to add something like,’ who actually used their brain to think about this, rather than taking the spoon-fed, nanny-knows-best approach’!
I have compiled a list of 41 papers evaluating the efficacy of mandatory restriction.
I have also compliled a list of the pandemic planning documents which were universally discarded when the SHTF.
Also included in a list of pre-pandemic papers is one from 2006, the one that started the whoole idea of lockdown. It was a schoolgirls science project in which she created a model for lockdowns. Daddy wrota a paper around it and got it published and here we are.
There are several other similar lists around, which I consulted. I believe this is the most comprehensive list.
39 of 41 papers found no measurable benefit or positive effect from mandatory restriction in comarison the voluntary action.
