- “Record 5.7 million people in England waiting for hospital treatment” – The waiting list is rising by about 100,000 a month as more people who did not seek or could not access NHS treatment over the past 18 months visit a GP and are referred to hospital, reports the Guardian.
- “What will history have to say about lockdowns?” – “The House of Commons report steers clear of asking the all-important question: did lockdowns work? And did the benefits of locking down outweigh the costs,” reads the lead article in the latest issue of the Spectator.
- “Britain’s Covid record is not the global horror story some wish to believe” – The Commons report is right to criticise groupthink, inertia and scientific smugness – but the idea the U.K. is an egregious outlier is wrong, writes Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in the Telegraph.
- “No reason to scrap New Year’s Eve London fireworks, Sajid Javid tells Sadiq Khan” – The Health Secretary has hit out after the Mayor cancelled the display which could boost the capital’s economy by up to £12 million, reports the Telegraph.
- “Lateral flow tests work better than thought for Covid, study finds” – Lateral flow tests are more accurate at detecting Covid than previously thought, according to a new University College London-led study.
- “Sajid Javid is right to make the NHS more accountable” – “More money being announced for the NHS is a story we’ve heard time and time again – but this time the details are different,” writes Kate Andrews in the Spectator.
- “The pandemic has made cynics of us all” – “Today the American right is openly contemptuous of institutions and individuals it revered only a few years ago,” writes Douglas Murray in the Spectator.
- “For poor countries, lockdowns cost more lives than they save” – In tackling the Covid pandemic, solutions for rich countries do not apply universally, writes Toby Green in Prospect.
- “Covid Insanity: A Further Surge” – “A viral strain cannot be a peg by which we assess what we can and cannot achieve, who we can or cannot be, or the contours of social, economic and national destiny,” writes Omar Khan in Uncommon Wisdom.
- “It’s imbecilic for people like Fauci, who acts like he’s God’s right-hand man, to silence opposing scientific viewpoints on Covid” – In the race to overcome the threat of this disease, we need to not only listen to those who don’t share the elite’s arrogant orthodoxy, but to understand their arguments. That’s the proper scientific approach, writes Walter Block in RT.
- “Boris Johnson’s eco-Micawberism will not pay the bills of net zero” – The country has been told precious little about how reaching carbon neutrality is going to be delivered, writes Fraser Nelson in the Telegraph.
- “Waterstones is blasted for ‘selectively censoring’ books on feminism” – Feminist authors including the professor at the centre of a trans harassment row are being ‘selectively censored’ by bookshop Waterstones, reports MailOnline.
- “Shoppers slam ‘woke’ name for Primark’s ‘parenthood’ collection” – Shoppers have slammed the ‘woke’ name for Primark’s new pregnancy range – ‘parenthood collection‘.
- “This is price of the Church prostrating itself” – When a Church of England bishop defects to the Roman Catholic church, that is the price of prostrating itself on the altar of trendy obsessions, writes Stephen Glover in the Mail.
- “Why the new John Lewis advert is everything that’s wrong with modern Britain” – The retailer’s home insurance ad is a vision of destruction that’s peak 2021, but you can’t criticise it without being called transphobic, writes Judith Woods in the Telegraph.
- “What hope is there when even the Rolling Stones roll over and cancel ‘Brown Sugar’ for fear of offending the woke mob?” – Mick, Keith, and Ronnie have yet to play the song “Brown Sugar” on their latest tour because of its lyrical links to slavery. Maybe they are just a corporate nostalgia act these days, but the impact of caving could be far-ranging, writes Charlie Stone in RT.
- “Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s bi-sexual Superman!” – “It’s all very tiring, I’m sure you will agree. There is perhaps nothing less conformist in today’s world than trying to shoehorn identity politics into every nook and cranny possible,” writes Frederick Edward in Bournbrook Magazine.
- “‘Retain and Explain’ won’t end the culture wars” – “If the Government forces the custodians of statues and monuments to keep them against their will, those custodians will ‘retain and denounce’ rather than make a good-faith effort to contextualise the historical figure in question,” writes Toby in the Spectator.
- “France’s Senate rejects Covid vaccine mandates/passports with an overwhelming majority” – That’s the good news. The bad news is that French Covid ’emergency’ powers (including powers to enforce vaccine mandates/passports) have been extended until July 2022.
Good news

Greetings fellow realists…
(Sceptics seems massively pointless now.)
Morning HP, we definitely have the strength, although personally I’m going to probably have a short break from commenting, while I re-group…family wise, and give them a bit of attention….
I will be reading everyone’s comments every day though, and will dip in if I see something I think is important, and no doubt as we plunge into an uncertain winter,
I’ll be back! (There’s a reason why it’s a great line!)…
This is cheering anyway….

Whether it’s covid NPI insanity or fatally idealistic net zero policies I always believed that at some point reality would dawn on these cretins setting these policies.
It was a scary moment for me some time ago when I realised that it’s actually a cult, that they are so brainwashed that no amount of contact with reality is going to change their minds.
We have to deal with them on those terms, somehow they have to be de-radicalised just as you would the fanatical devotees of some herpes riddled svengali jacked up on LSD whilst locked away in a compound in rural Texas. At least those dupes largely kept themselves to themselves.
Exactly correct , my mom – Midwife then later a nursing ward sister took up Jehova Witnessing when I was about 12 ! I would have none of it & I became to see it as a cult . The young ( some not so anymore ) globalists have as you say been captured by a cultist ideology which their masters exploit ( actual useful idiots) just like the people at the top of the Jehova religion who I always thought are living in probable decadence, high on the hog while their footsoldiers sell the Watchtower magazine believing in eternal life while wasting the one they’ve got !…
We won’t be able to change their opinions by directly challenging them, they’re too indoctrinated for that route to be feasible. They’re sheep & will follow the most likely/plausible/strongest leader of the flock. The WEF & their ilk are hyenas who purport to lead. Knowing their plans is important so that we can lead the change by being the better option for the flock to follow.
We have to be the lions. We are the Resistance. Every little action of civil disobedience which thwarts the roll out of their designs will eventually add up to a critical mass of disobedience & resistance.
One or two well trained border collies and a skilled handler can manage a large flock of sheep quite well, to continue the analogy. Might be a form of entertainment, or a source of revenue etc for some.
So long as those skilled Border Collies are being handled by a lion not a hyena…
A positive message & call to arms for all the Lions here:

Hmmm… Further evidence to support that the covid management was planned rather than cock-up….
They plan things many decades in advance. If there is one thing evil is good at is being patient. They know everything can be achieved slowly, one small step at a time, so you almost don’t realise where you are heading, until it’s too late.
Luckily increasing amounts of people are becoming aware of the dangerous road we are on.

This is vital information for any parent or grandparent to inform choices & decisions about childhood vaccination.
If I had my time again, my daughter would not have received any of these.
“I gathered all vaccine ingredients into a list and contacted Poison Control. After intros and such, and asking to speak with someone tenured and knowledgeable, this is the gist of that conversation.
Me: My question to you is how are these ingredients categorized? As benign or poison? (I ran a few ingredients, formaldehyde, Tween 80, mercury, aluminum, phenoxyethanol, potassium phosphate, sodium phosphate, sorbitol, etc.)
He: Well, that’s quite a list… But I’d have to easily say that they’re all toxic to humans… Used in fertilizers… Pesticides… To stop the heart… To preserve a dead body… They’re registered with us in different categories, but pretty much poisons. Why?
Me: If I were deliberately to feed or inject my child with these ingredients often, as a schedule, obviously I’d put my daughter in harm’s way… But what would legally happen to me?
He: Odd question… But you’d likely be charged with criminal negligence… perhaps with intent to kill… and of course child abuse… Your child would be taken away from you… Do you know of someone’s who’s doing this to their child? This is criminal…
Me: An industry… These are the ingredients used in vaccines… With binding agents to make sure the body won’t flush these out… To keep the antibody levels up indefinitely…
The man was beside himself. He asked if I would email him all this information. He wanted to share it with his adult kids who are parents. He was horrified and felt awful he didn’t know… his kids are vaccinated and they have health issues…”

Here are just SOME vaccine ingredients present in routine vaccines:
Formaldehyde/Formalin – Highly toxic systematic poison and carcinogen.
25fe.svgBetapropiolactone – Toxic chemical and carcinogen. May cause death/permanant injury after very short exposure to small quantities. Corrosive chemical.
Hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide – May cause damage to the liver, cardiovascular system, and central nervous system. May cause reproductive effects and birth defects.
Aluminum hydroxide, aluminum phosphate, and aluminum salts – Neurotoxin. Carries risk for long term brain inflammation/swelling, neurological disorders, autoimmune disease, Alzheimer’s, dementia, and autism. It penetrates the brain where it persists indefinitely.
Thimerosal (mercury) – Neurotoxin. Induces cellular damage, reduces oxidation-reduction activity, cellular degeneration, and cell death. Linked to neurological disorders, Alzheimer’s, dementia, and autism.
Polysorbate 80 & 20 – Trespasses the Blood-Brain Barrier and carries with it aluminum, thimerosal, and viruses; allowing it to enter the brain.
Glutaraldehyde – Toxic chemical used as a disinfectant for heat sensitive medical equipment.
Fetal Bovine Serum – Harvested from bovine (cow) fetuses taken from pregnant cows before slaughter.
Human Diploid Fibroblast Cells – aborted fetal cells. Foreign DNA has the ability to interact with our own.
African Green Monkey Kidney Cells – Can carry the SV-40 cancer-causing virus that has already tainted about 30 million Americans.
Acetone – Can cause kidney, liver, and nerve damage.
E.Coli – Yes, you read that right.
DNA from porcine (pig) Circovirus type-1
Human embryonic lung cell cultures (from aborted fetuses)
You can view all of these ingredients on the CDCs website.

Bloody Hell!
Worse than I imagined.
No wonder the IQ & health of the population is heading downwards…
Scary, scary stuff.
My next battle is with the vet! Similar crap in those vaccines.
Yes, I agree…my older dog hasn’t had a booster for the last two years and I’m not planning on giving him any more…I now know that the whole vaccine thing, whether human or animal, is predominantly about money…I will be looking at every single medical procedure offered to me, mine, or my pets, with a fine tooth comb……before I sign up for anything.
It’s not even just the ingredients…I now know what to look for in ‘trial data’, and I know how much it is skewed….that’s the reason I won’t ever be getting a flu jab either…
My boy is 4. Serum studies have shown immunity after 7 years & for lepto lifelong if puppy vaccines given after 12 weeks of age.
Nobody is going near me again with a loaded syringe!!!
