” ‘Lifting lockdowns a danger’ – zero Covid fanatics”. (CNBC)

“Zero Covid New Zealand sees sky rocketing child hospitalisations due to immune systems depressed by lockdowns” (Jordan Schachtel, yesterday’s roundup).

Harming children is not just one cost among many, it should be far and away our first priority to protect children. And this shambles has harmed children in so many ways, including suicides, far more than any good it might supposedly have done them. It is the zero Covid idiots who have questions to answer.

Swathes of England fans coming down with Wembley variant:

“‘It seems like everyone behind that goal was riddled as everyone in the ESTC [England Supporters Travel Club] has Covid or is isolating,” one tweeted.’

‘“Every man, woman and their dog riddled with the Wembley variant,” said another.’”

Utter codswallop! Another psyops managed tactic to deter people from attending large events.

Just read the lead article on the BBC website about the cabinet waiting to be told whether they need to isolate.

Johnson knows he had a meeting with Javid but has not yet been told by Track and Trace that he was a close contact.

Let’s all bow down to the power and wisdom of the marvellous Track and Trace system that must be obeyed. It is so brilliant that we can totally rely on it to tell us the bleeding obvious.

Utterly brainless.

Re vaccinating only vulnerable 12 – 15 years, no doubt the parents will be inundated with letters and texts stating their child is classed as vulnerable by virtue of ???, is therefore at risk and should have the ‘safe and effective’ injection.
The same ploy has been used to coerce countless adults into believing they should be injected.
I got texts and a letter stating that due to my underlying health conditions, I should make arrangements to be injected. I have no underlying health conditions. Manipulative, cheating, dangerous liars.

I wonder if they’ll just make the vulnerabilities up like they did with the adults or if they’ll actually do a proper study on the children who have died/been hospitalised. Some of these extremely ill children won’t survive the jab which is heartbreaking. Many of the others will have been suffering from a cocktail of poverty – poor diet, overcrowding, lack of exercise and vitamin D, air pollution. It also makes me sad that the new way to help protect these disadvantaged children is going to be a vaccine they shouldn’t need!

I wonder how inflated the ‘vulnerable’ numbers are with people who had cancer 30 years ago for example and are forever on the list even though they are healthier than ever now.

ITEM: “Protest convoy of trucks at Sydney Harbour Bridge and Anzac Bridge following changes to COVID-19 rules”. The truckies’ protest was organised by the Transport Workers Union (TWU) over the snap decision to close construction sites and to further restrict drivers from working in ‘non-essential’ industry sectors. The TWU are also threatening a ban on deliveries to South Australia unless the new rule by the SA Police Commissioner requiring them to be nasally swabbed roadside every single time they cross the SA border is scrapped. It’s about time the unions showed a bit of fight against lockdown restrictions. As a four-decade workplace union rep (shop steward in your lingo) in the secondary school system and the public service, I have been appalled by the meekness of the unions during the Covid nonsense, too easily bought off by furlough. The TWU’s latest muscle-flexing does pose an interesting conundrum for the Covid-hysterical left. Will their support for lockdown override their once-axiomatic support for blue-collar trade unionism? The way the woke-left have thrown the industrial working class under the bus over recent decades tells us they won’t be cheering on the TWU. ‘Which side are you on?’, as we used to sing on picket lines, would get a… Read more »

Found this nice definition of a biofascist on urban dictionary:

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Biofascist

“Refers to members of the ruling class, elected officials and their little totalitarians who use Covid-19 to consolidate and grow their power and wealth through lockdowns, social distancing laws, mask mandates, censorship, shaming and intimidation, all under the guise of care and concern for humankind, which they [apparently] have and you don’t.”

Might be nice to give it a thumbs up on urban dictionary website. 🙂

Mr Hannan is correct. Huge swathes of the public enjoy authoritarianism….but it is not the entrepreneurs, the independent minded small businessmen, of whom there are about 16 million in this country, who embrace authoritarianism….how could it be…their very existence relies on freedom.

No, it is the state sector, also about 16 million strong, that supports authoritarianism……because their very existence relies on authoritarianism.

That is the battle. Blair recognised it and opened the borders, 400,000 net increase annually (and the rest!) in the population since 1998, accompanying increased public sector employment. He did not do that to increase Conservative voters (although that, like many of his schemes, particularly devolution for Scotland, appears to have gone hilariously awry!).

So it is no surprise that the Conservatives have just lost two by-elections they could not lose.

The surprise is that this government is too stupid to realise that the voters supporting this rise in authoritarianism will never vote Conservative….and those who do not support this rise in authoritarianism will now never vote Conservative either….under this leadership.

It’s Sunday and the church bells are tolling…..they are tolling for you, Mr Johnson…….

Precisely why the turnout at the recent by-elections was so low.

There is a long time to run until the next general election but the conservative party, unless it changes direction or leadership, will not be able to get its vote out.

Many Conservative councillors will lose their seats next year. The noise will be deafening…..but are there any Conservative MPs without a tin ear?

And yet at the last set of elections in May they did OK, albeit because the other parties did quite badly.

If people are drfting away from the Tories I don’t think many of them are doing it because they’ve realised it’s a scamdemic. Maybe you know more disaffected Tories than I do – I hope so! Almost everyone I know thinks covid was an exceptional danger. I know more people who are fed up with lockdowns now and probably would not want any more, but will accept them. People I know who hold the sceptic position – almost none.

The last elections were a case of select the least worst option. Labour were perceived as being worse than the Tories, particularly in Amersham where Labour lost 90% of their voters despite local opposition to HS2.

Well, that’s from IDS so not necessarily what the leadership are thinking. I suppose they may feel a little pressure now from people which is why they are doing this fake freedom day where they pretend all restrictions are being lifted knowing very well they won’t be because they’ve been briefing organisations to continue with them. But I don’t think that’s going to push them into any kind of admission that the whole thing has been a huge mistake, and that admission is the only thing that really matters.

Any pressure on these nincompoops is good pressure:

I beg to differ again I’m afraid, my friend. I’d much rather the elites obviously took the piss than conformed to their own stupid rules.

As I said, they will never ever admit they got covid completely wrong, and that is the only thing that really matters. I suppose it’s possible that they will quietly try to drift us back to normality, and not use these mad interventions ever again, but I think that’s pretty unlikely and even if they did, life in the UK is now irrevocably compromised by the madness, and if they were to lose the next election we’d be in even more serious trouble.

I don’t think relying on the government to get us out of this is wise. We face a decades long battle to restore some kind of sanity – a battle that we may well lose.

They are not conforming to their own stupid rules until made to do so, and they have just been made to conform, amidst a great deal of ill mannered but irresistible tittering…..It is by no means a long step now to complete laughing stocks………..

I readily concede that this country has reverted to some kind of statist comfort zone last experienced here in the 1970s

But we moved on from there to a period of unparalleled prosperity

As have said before, the next U.S. President will be a lockdown sceptic, and what happens in America never stays in America….

This is a long game but the issue is not in doubt

I envy your optimism/positive vision of the future

I take no comfort from seeing our leaders being laughed at or pilloried for the wrong reasons. We’ll just get some even more joyless loon who actually sticks to the rules probably.

The US has surprised me in how it seems to have moved on, even under Biden. I think we’re clearly a long way from the US in most of the rest of the rich world with regard to the value we place on personal freedom and responsiblity and the divide between what is the proper province of the state and what is private and personal.

Where I live it is solid Tory and solid Covidian. Place where I’ve seen most covid non-compliance – Labour-voting poor areas of North London.

Are you saying there are 16 million people in this country who run businesses? It seems high but maybe you’re right.

I know lots of people who are employed in the private sector who are fully bought into the narrative, and it seems to me most big firms have also embraced it quite willingly.

I would agree that the places that have moved on most fully from covidianism tend to be places where there is still some vestige of the idea that the state should be as small as possible, but the number of such places is vanishingly small and almost exclusively in the USA.

It seems true that more of the opposition in the media and parliament to the nonsense has come from people on the political right, but we’re such a small number that we make little difference. I don’t think the PM will be quaking in his boots about a few freedom loving nutters like us, sadly.

16.8 million employed in (6 million) small to medium sized enterprises.

There is plenty of tacit opposition, but not many of these can afford to take a stand as they are the ones taking the most punishment.

That is why they will never again vote for the Conservative party under this leadership.

” Large numbers of football fans have tested positive following the Euros final, according to the i. Some fans said that “pretty much everyone” they knew who were at the stadium on Sunday are now self-isolating ”

And is ever the cry “AND WHAT?”

This would be a good one to try and follow up on because unless there’s a large uptick in serious illness in this cohort, what do we have?

‘Large numbers of football fans have tested positive…’ i.e. people have a positive PCR test. Thats what happens when you volunteer to get a test.

There were approx 60K fans at Wembley for one match but what about the numbers who were at Wimbledon every single day for a fortnight?

Presumably they simply didn’t bother to get a test or perhaps if you are a tennis fan are somehow immune? What a crock …

I thought that the crowd at Wembley and Wimbledon had to be either double jabbed or show a negative test?

If so, then surely everyone was “safe”, so how has anyone now become a case?
