Thank you for your saint-like patience and grace.
The country, and history, are taking note.
Great list of questions – To remind you of the science which should have been debated, we offer a list of topics
Missing a few imo:
I am reminded of “Lord of the Flies” where the children were running the place.
It is so good that you did this, it lets them know that you cannot be bullied and shut down no matter how they try. The pity is that they aren’t trying very hard to disguise the fact that the outcome of the inquiry was decided before it even began, and what is being played out is a theatre, a badly written and directed play that fools no one, not even the MSM who supported all the madness. What is does evidence, is the contempt that they hold the public in, and the lack of respect they have for honest scientists.
Don’t give up, there are millions behind you. Thank you.
Excellent post
The Inquiry isn’t intended to examine the evidence. The conclusion has already been reached – everything the Establishment did was correct and appropriate, except it should have been done harder, sooner and longer.
Now they’re just stringing it out as long as possible to ensure that everyone involved is long-gone.
“Now they’re just stringing it out as long as possible to ensure that everyone involved is long-gone” and those employed to run this theatre are remunerated at vast expense to the taxpayers.
The legal “profession” do not have it in their DNA to move things along at pace. They suggest that they are being thorough, the reality is they charge by the hour.
Absolutely, this enquiry has nothing to do with finding the truth and everything to do with vindicating the Deep State and lining their pockets at the same time. Despicable people and rotten to the core.
Brilliant!
Confidence in this inquiry has not survived Hallett’s risible catchphrase:
“I’m sorry, I’m not following, Sir Peter. If there’s a possible benefit, what’s the downside?”
She and ‘Sir Peter’ have both now become figures of fun, the Alan Partridges of government inquiries.
We await more hilarity with aching sides and watery eyes……
But the relatives of those no longer with us, as a consequence of the incompetence these nincompoops are supposed to be investigating, are, rightly, incandescent at this ‘De haut en bas’ display of smug self gratification by this bunch of pompous charlatans.
The polite request is likely to fall on death ears, it’s rather penning a letter to Mengele respectfully asking he be a bit more cuddly towards Jews. Hallet is as dodgy as and has not a shred of moral decency, she is rotten to the core as well as brainless.
Crikey! When is the lid going to blow off this scam, in which the entire world was conned by ‘Covid’…you know, the killer disease that doesn’t kill most people…
But they terrorised most people with this phoney disease, restricted them, locked them down, muzzled them, ‘tested’ them, put them under surveillance, destroyed their privacy, deliberately ‘nudged’ and demoralised them and, worst of all, trashed voluntary informed consent for the worse than useless injections, and stole personal autonomy and bodily integrity…they stole freedom…
And what’s at the base of this diabolical crime? Neil Ferguson et al’s infamous Report 9, which recommended ‘suppression’ of the virus, aka lockdown and restrictions, “until a vaccine becomes available…”
It wasn’t disclosed in Ferguson et al’s report that Ferguson is funded by arguably the world’s biggest promoter of vaccine products, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation… Talk about a conflict of interest!
And there was Gates, running the show in May 2020, giving Boris Johnson and Kate Bingham their instructions, see: PM call with Bill and Melinda Gates:19 May 2020.
Ditch the fake ‘Covid Inquiry’ gravy train, let’s get the criminal investigation under way for this ginormous global crime.
Re conflicts of interest, this document is an interesting read…

I would have thought Dido Harding would need to declare that her spouse is an MP.
Absolutely brilliant. This is exactly how to deal with Hallett and her pantomime, show it up for the farce that it is. The disrespect visited upon Professor Heneghan is sadly becoming more prevalent in public life and not unexpectedly is debasing our genuinely scientific institutions and people. This has to be called out, not because I envisage it ceasing but in order that the public record be made good.
On a side note – the opening paragraph is clumsily written.
Appropriate comment from Derek and Clive—-“and I turned to the manager, and with all the dignity I could muster, I said, “Is this any way to run a f##king Ball Room?””
“Is this any way to run a f##king Ball Room?””
Truly apposite words from the venerable duo.
Why ‘respectfully’?
Contempt is best made known.
Apart from some new gong for the head of the enquiry, what is this process going to achieve apart from some significant earnings for many barristers and their support teams. Such an obvious waste of money
It isn’t designed to achieve anything other than being part of the covid charade. A deadly pandemic must have an expensive inquiry.
I’m not sure but I think there’s a possibility that it’s Angela Merkel chairing this enquiry rather than the Baroness…
Might as well be Lord Lucan, Shergar, Elvis or indeed a WW2 bomber for all the “good “ that’s (not) coming out of this.
Well done Carl and Tom, but some grammatical howlers in your submission make it difficult to follow and occasionally even suggest the opposite of what is intended. Respectfully suggest you run future communications past a good writer of English (no rudeness intended). But lets hope Hallett et al put their house in order as a result, neverthless. Sadly, something tells me they won’t.
Hallett deserves the sort of respect given to insects squashed on the car’s windscreen.
Nah! That’s too quick and painless.
OK point taken. How about a piece of dog turd you’ve stepped in on your way to a night out?
I looked at the ‘stop press’ videos. Hallett’s thanks to Edmunds made me want to vomit and those to Heneghan were unworthy of a numbskull thug, let alone a high ranking member of our legal “profession”.
I just don’t know how Professor Heneghan is able to bear the injustice and shameless bias of this public dishonesty and slander.
I simply wanted to say how desperately sorry I am that he has had to endure this following his noble and dedicated work in trying to save lives in the face of a terrible attack against humankind in the name of covid-19 and a so called vaccine.
There are so many of us who are deeply grateful to him and all the others who stood up bravely against the establishment and are fighting to protect us from this terrible danger clearly, in my opinion, inflicted on the world with deliberate and careful planning that began very many years ago.
We have seen the strange ‘hydra’ like items were seen in the ‘vaccine’ under microscope and the horrible long strings of black matter drawn from the bodies of the dead who died after being injected, plus the investigations of vaccinated bloods under microscope. All of these came to our attention and it was clear we were not being injected to improve our health or to prevent a virus.
I urge everyone to watch the 1992 Barcelona Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games, from the ship sequence. The ship is afloat on a sea of cells. There are syringes and viruses. There is a huge virus with dead people. And at approx. 45.30 a black ‘hydra’ type of thing waves around. At the end of the ‘battle’ the music changes to a Chines style and, decorated in Yellow, new people take over to reorder everybody.
