“Let down by the pro-vaccine sceptics” – “Pro-vaxxer liberalism is also heroically optimistic,” says Paul Collits, “if they think that vaccines and vaccine passports will persuade governments to ease off on lockdowns”

“Unnecessary secrecy” over “covid ” deaths? So we don’t even have full and accurate information on nosocomial deaths. And that is on top of the deliberate obscuring of the number of people who have died within four weeks of being injected with these “vaccines”.
These people should not be allowed to get away with hiding the truth like that. Like I say, truth in science (which is being treated like a branch of politics) can not come soon enough.
That Youtube of a US childrens wildlife TV programme appeared BTL here yesterday; at the time it showed 11k viewer upvotes to 10k downvotes whereas the show is used to garnering overwhelming numbers of positive responses.
Today (Weds 03.30) it stands neck and neck at 13k each. Not the result the personable host Coyote was hoping for or perhaps he was pressured into vax propaganda with dozy Joe and phoney fauci rather than his more usual struggles with crocodiles.

‘Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton says Victorians are well primed to respond to the threat of the outbreak’. The Plan….. to bring us all to this state of compliance.
I think Vietnam is especially instructive: if a goddamned communist police state can’t make zero-Covid work, where can??
As for Australia, hasn’t its own zero-Covid policies been the work almost entirely of state premiers, while the thing that is a federal responsibility (vaccination) has been a miserable failure? It wouldn’t surprise me though if he’s seen how little opposition there is to sealed borders in Australia, and thinks that deliberately botching the vax programme (to thus provide an excuse to keep the borders sealed for longer) will go down well with racist voters?
Facebook have been absolutely key in the spread of fear and panic that led us into this. Some of the scary videos that were being circulated on that “platform” early last year, were without doubt fake news. Ever since the Cambridge Analytica broke, Zuckerberg has worn the face of Dr Frankenstein.
We as a society have allowed this and the Google monster ( I think Twitter is something else ), into nearly every aspect of our lives. Despite warnings from ex employees and even executives, society has carried on, not wanting to deal with glaringly obvious mission creep of these companies.
The UK’s privacy watchdog has wrapped up its probe into Cambridge Analytica, saying it found no hard evidence to support claims the controversial biz used data scraped from people’s Facebook profiles to influence the Brexit referendum nor the US 2016 presidential election. There was no clear evidence of Russian involvement, either. In a letter [PDF] this month to Julian Knight – chairman of Parliament’s Digital, Culture and Media and Sport Select Committee – the Information Commissioner’s Office detailed the findings of its investigation, having gone through 700TB and more than 300,000 documents seized from the now-defunct company.
Interesting to see that even the Dwarf from the North has grasped the patent lunacy of “eliminating” an endemic coronavirus. Whether this unexpected attack of sanity extends to ditching the muzzle mandates remains to be seen: I rather suspect not. In fact, I expect quite the opposite will be the case. What I’d very much take issue with is her venom aimed at people “missing appointments” to be experimented on. An appointment is something that I make. Being ordered to turn up at a time and place to have something that I didn’t ask for and don’t want injected into me is not at all the same thing. Interestingly though, the NHS Scotchland site has recorded that my first dose of experimentation is “Completed” even though I chose to ignore their diktat. I wonder if this is incompetence or strategy. After all, once we’ve all been recorded as being experimented on, what objection could we have to carrying and showing “vaccine passports” which will graciously gift us back some liberties that the Virus From Nowhere took away? Bear in mind that social credit scores are the goal, and the vaccines and plandemic are just the tools to get us there.… Read more »

The “Inform Scotland” letter is a great read, even for those in the rest of the UK. Sadly, I think with the current inability to critically think, huge numbers of people would read this and STILL cheerfully roll up their sleeve. 🙁
yes – but it does put it up to TPTB that the people are copping on and that this information is being shared. Not that it will likely make much difference as they seem to regard themselves as completely untouchable as they GET AWAY WITH EVERY SINGLE TRANSGRESSION UNCHALLANGED
“The Inform Scotland group has written to various regulatory and governmental bodies in Scotland to raise concerns that the principle of informed consent is being ignored in the vaccine roll-out”
I had a remarkable incident yesterday that relates to ‘informed consent’.
A family friend furiously denied that the ‘vaccines’ were experimental and not fully tested, and, therefore couldn’t be deemed ‘safe’.
This purely factual statement was just my ‘view’.
‘Informed consent’?Don’t make me laugh. It’s hypnosis.
“Pro-vaxxer liberalism is also heroically optimistic,” says Paul Collits, “if they think that vaccines and vaccine passports will persuade governments to ease off on lockdowns”
This article makes an important point. It’s only fault is that it resorts to old political characterisations to describe a seismic shift.
The Times is continuing with its corona-hysteria propaganda. Covid-19 has been spreading in Japan since at least the start of 2020. without causing excess deaths. Japan didn’t introduce any particular strict measures, closed its borders, etc. Many studies show the virus was spread around the globe since at least Q4 of 2019. (including Europe). The virus is airborne with R0~2.5, and it can jump between animals and humans. It is unlikely that border closers and lockdowns kept low number of deaths in Asia and Oceania. Either they have larger pre-existing immunity to coronaviruses in general or they experienced main part of covid19 earlier in 2019 (without noticing it). Many of these countries, or parts of them, had a very high ILI throughout 2019. It was possibly covid19. In any case, covid19 is endemic by now everywhere (it might have been already way before, in summer of 2020, even in Europe). There is no point in counting deaths cumulatively after pandemic part ends. You don’t do it for flu. Plus, deaths were/are (over)counted because of “death due to covid19 if tested positive for the virus, even if average age is above average age of all-cause mortality” rule, and due to mass… Read more »
“If this was done for any other respiratory virus (including common cold coronaviruses) like it is being done for sars-cov-2, you could ascribe millions of deaths to it each year.”

On the Mark Harper comment, he is an MP, in the Parliament of 650 odd other MPs. Doesn’t it just show how supine the Parliament is that they have let this happen & continue to do nothing about it. As a country, we are well & truly screwed.

The real scientists predicted that C19 would be largely nosocomial. They were ignored and censored.
‘The President ! What did he tell us ?’

Never.

If they had found evidence, it would have proved that all sides were playing dirty. The CA scandal is the tiny tip of the iceberg.

Their end goal is a sustainable planet, ie stop people moving
Sustainability is all about subsidising the globalist establishment(s).
i.e. unsustainable with an population begging to join the dots.
