First, could I recommend readers go to the blog I wrote at the weekend and click on the title to see the reader comments? Among the reader comments is a link to a short video about v*cc*nes made by Tony Heller. It refers to the article abstract I featured in the blog. I’m not sure I dare put the link here as it might lead to me being banned by ‘fact-checkers’. When you watch the Tony Heller video, you’ll understand my caution.
And one other small point. In the video from Dr John Campbell in my blog, he talked about the need to see the full article about the v*cc*nes rather than just the abstract. However, I was correct in suggesting that the abstract formed part of a medical conference programme so that attendees could decide which sessions they wanted to go to. There is, as far as I understand, no article accompanying the abstract.
Media-manufactured hysteria?
Apparently the South African doctor who first reported the latest Covid-19 variant-scariant was interviewed on LBC on Sunday morning. The interview went something like this:
Dr: This is a strain with mild symptoms and only very few cases so far.
Tom S: But you do have patients in ICU with this strain?
Dr: Very few.
Tom S: What about these reports of vaccine escape. That sounds terrifying.
Dr: No-one is getting seriously sick.
Tom S: You say people suffer from severe fatigue. What is that like?
Dr: Tiredness. It goes away after a bit.
Tom S: But surely you agree that until we know more, it is right to introduce restrictions out of precaution?
Dr: No. It’s totally over the top.
What a wonderful example of how our deranged mainstream media twists everything to whip up unnecessary hysteria and panic.
How our media have betrayed us
I watched part of the “Boris and the Twins of Doom Show” on Saturay evening. I found the questions asked by the supposed ‘journalists’ phrased in such as way as to generate the scariest headlines possible rather than uncover the truth of what is really happening.
In normal times, we should accept that our media will always exaggerate and try to paint things in the darkest most dramatic possible light as “if it bleeds, it leads”. But when we really do have a problem like Fauci’s lab-leaked Wuhan plague, the media should have a responsibility to report accurately. This the media have consistently failed to do.
But this is what the media have been doing throughout the Chinese plague pandemic and also did so successfully with the supposed toilet paper shortage, then food shortage and then fuel shortage which were all caused by hyperventilating click-bait media exaggeration.
As with supposed ‘catastrophic climate change’, we are seeing a media-generated pandemic of disproportionate over-reaction, a plague of unthinking stupidity and an outbreak of unconstrained emotional incontinence related to the inability of our brainwashed public to assess and accept any tiny risk
Apparently the new scariant leads to a high pulse rate, headaches and tiredness. I had that after watching part of the “Boris and the Twins of Doom Show” yesterday. This appalling virus must be more contagious than anybody imagined if I’m catching it from my TV.
And, by the way, hopefully everybody has noticed the anagram from “Omicron”. Is there really a new variant-scariant? Or is somebody taking the p*ss?
On Friday I raised the issue of the impressive number of sportsmen who have had heart problems during the last year. I included a newish announcement from the World Health Organisation confirming the link between myocarditis and pericarditis (heart muscle inflammations) with mRNA vaccines for the lab-leaked Chinese plague. I also included a brief section from a medical website explaining that even mild cases of myocarditis can lead to sudden death in young athletes.
As you would expect, the theory that mRNA vaccinations have contributed to a rise in the deaths of young athletes has been quickly rubbished as just a crazed conspiracy theory by those who believe we should trust them with our health as they inject largely untested chemicals into our bodies:
They claim that the increased number of athletes collapsing is more likely to have been caused by Chinese plague viral infections than by the vaccines.
These are, of course, the same kind of people who rubbished any suggestion that the WuFlu was accidentally released from a filthy, unhygienic Chinese lab and who lambast anyone daring to question or even criticise the Greta-worshipping climate catastrophists as ‘flat-earthers’ and deluded ‘deniers’.
Another 100 bite the dust?
Well, here’s a link to a (more than slightly right-wing) website article listing over 100 athletes who reportedly have collapsed (and in some cases died) from heart problems in 2021
Throughout the Chinese plague, a gentleman called Dr John Campbell has been making almost daily videos explaining what is really happening. I attach below one of his most recent videos.
In this video Dr John Campbell features an abstract of a new article by an American cardiologist about possible adverse effects of mRNA vaccines. From what I gather, the abstract does not represent any fuller article. Instead I believe it was written for a medical conference so that attendees could decide which sessions they wished to attend. But I might well be wrong with this assumption.
The abstract describes a study done by the cardiologist. The US cardiologist had been tracking a group of over 560 patients looking at three markers of heart inflammation over 8 years using what is called the “PULS” scoring methodology. You can Google “PULS” – it seems to be the most generally-accepted and most accurate predictor of the risk of heart problems. This study was started long before covid and had nothing to do with covid or the vaccines. However, when covid did arrive and the vaccinations started, the cardiologist tested all the people again and found that the three markers of heart inflammation all seem to have hugely increased after vaccination with mRNA vaccines. (The AstraZeneca vaccine is not approved in the US, so this study only covers mRNA vaccines)
What we don’t know is whether these three inflammatory markers necessarily mean the heart will be damaged. Nor do we know, if there is damage, whether this will just last a few months or whether it is permanent thus hugely increasing the likelihood of a heart attack later in the person’s life.
Moreover, Dr Campbell points out several weaknesses in the study:
there is only one author which is unusual
the cardiologist had previously proposed some controversial theories about other medical matters
the abstract was sloppily written and some of the numbers didn’t specify the units of measure
the cardiologist also was very active on social media and had his own health food grocery business
But the key fact we don’t know from the abstract is how many of the 566 people being tested had contracted the Chinese plague at some point. So, from the abstract, we can’t conclude whether it was the Chinese plague or the mRNA vaccines which caused the spectacular rise in the three inflammatory markers.
However, Dr Campbell concludes that, in spite of the weaknesses with the study, there was sufficient science involved to pose some more than serious questions about the use of mRNA vaccines.
These are questions which those pushing the vaccines on us should be forced to answer but no doubt never will. After all, if it were proven that people (especially young fit men) were being damaged and even killed by mRNA vaccines, the whole vaccination programme would have to be abandoned and governments might find themselves facing claims for billions.
What fun times we all live in! Thank you Emperor Xi Pingpong and the corrupt Chinese Communist Party for making our lives so much more ‘interesting’.
In my blog of November 14th I featured a short video questioning why so many young healthy footballers have recently collapsed during games. Moreover, a reader commented a couple of days ago:
Purely anecdotal but I do not know of anyone in my locality who has died from covid. However, I am well acquainted with several people, three of them fit, active and healthy gym instructors in their 40’s who have had serious health problems since feeling pressurised into having the jabs due to the nature of their work.
Another reader provided a link to a Vernon Coleman video about the same subject.
Oh, and here’s a list of recent incidents:
(as usual, left-click on image and then left click again to see clearly)
What do journalists actually do?
So I decided to do what I had naively thought journalists were meant to do. I did a few minutes investigation.
(I now, of course, realise that most journalists don’t investigate anything anymore. Most only serve as cheerleaders for whatever cause our rulers want them to promote – the joys of lockdown to ‘flatten the curve’ and ‘protect the NHS’ which is ‘the envy of the world’, the wonders of our ‘miracle’ vaccines, supposed catastrophic climate change, the need to take the knee to BLM, all Brits being disgusting racists, Joe Biden being the greatest president the US has ever had, Trump being the incarnation of evil etc etc etc)
Who would trust anything from the WHO?
Anyway, my few minutes ‘investigation’ first took me to the website of the ludicrously misnamed World Health Organisation (WHO). You remember the WHO? They’re the people who could have stopped the Wuhan lab-leaked plague by shutting down all travel from filthy, corrupt, disease-spreading China. But instead the WHO eagerly helped the corrupt, filthy Chinese spread the Wuhan plague abroad while the Chinese shut down all travel within China. But I think we all now know who controls the utterly corrupt WHO:
The sycophantic submission of the corrupt WHO to the orders of the equally corrupt Chinese Communist Party will probably end up killing over 20 million people around the world. I note in passing that not a single UK politician has dared question the WHO’s competence or allegiance. Odd that?
Why have no ‘journalists’ noticed this?
During my ‘investigation’, here’s something I found on the WHO website:
The COVID-19 subcommittee of the WHO Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety (GACVS) issued a statement regarding reports of myocarditis and pericarditis following COVID-19 mRNA vaccines (1). Cases of myocarditis and pericarditis, although rare, have occurred more often in younger men (adolescents or young adults) and after the second dose, typically within a few days after vaccination with the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. As of June 2021, US VAERS surveillance data estimated crude reporting rates of 40.6 cases per million second doses among males and 4.2 cases per million among females aged 12-29 years (2). Current evidence suggests a likely causal association between myocarditis and the mRNA vaccines.
I appreciate that cases of myocarditis and pericarditis (inflammation of the heart muscles) are rare adverse effects of mRNA vaccines. But a rate of 40.6 cases per million second doses among males and 4.2 cases per million among females aged 12-29 years is a pretty worrying statistic. I mean these inflammations are 10 times more frequent in young males than in young females. Ten times is quite a lot.
Am I an investigative genius? (the answer is ‘no’)
That piece of ‘investigation’ took me less than 2 minutes. But it seems to have been well beyond the capabilities of most mainstream-media journalists.
Anyway, I decided to spend even more time (another 2 – 3 minutes) on my ‘in-depth’ investigation and came upon this:
Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle and is one of the cardiac conditions associated with sudden death in young athletes.1 When it occurs, myocarditis often has no symptoms early on. A young athlete may feel well enough to compete, unaware of the problem. After the diagnosis is made, however, it is necessary for them to significantly restrict their exercise in order to reduce complications, including the risk of sudden death.
The risk of exercise-induced sudden death is real even with mild cases of myocarditis. It is critical that young athletes restrict their athletic activities until given an “all clear” by their cardiologist
Should professional athletes risk v*ccin*tion?
I’m not an anti-vaxxer. I do believe the v*ccines lower the risk of serious complications from the Xi Pingpong Chinese plague.
But although myocarditis and pericarditis after v*ccin*tion are rare, it seems to me that they are proven. So, in my humble and ignorant opinion, all professional athletes should have their heart function monitored for a few weeks after v*ccin*tion. Of course, now that v*ccin*tions are becoming mandatory in some countries and v*cc*ne passports are being introduced in other countries, our rulers would never admit that there is a risk of heart inflammations as making this admission would also be admitting that our rulers are murdering some of their citizens.
Not ‘good optics’ as a PR person might say.
Here’s the video of footballers collapsing in case you haven’t seen it. You have to click on the “Watch on YouTube” to get access:
Today I want to ask for your help in getting people to watch two short videos I have just made based on my recent book – THERE IS NO CLIMATE CRISIS.
But first, just some brief thoughts the Covid-19 chaos we’re seeing in Europe.
Lockdown lunacy?
As several European countries go back into lockdown and assault any of their citizens protesting against the lockdowns with water cannons, tear gas, rubber bullets and even real bullets, I’ve produced two charts which I think might be relevant.
These charts are hospitalisation levels and death rates from the Chinese plague. I have not bothered with infection rates as these depend on things like how many people are being tested, the testing statistical sampling methodology and PCR test amplification levels used. Moreover, infection rates don’t tell us how many people are actually suffering serious Chinese plague symptoms.
Here are the hospitalisation rates for just a few countries:
(left-click on chart then left click again to see in glorious technicolour)
Unfortunately the Our World in Data website didn’t have any hospitalisation figures for Austria and Sweden.
But here are the death rates:
As you’ll see Sweden, which didn’t lock its citizens down, has much lower rate of WuFlu deaths than all the lockdown countries. Yet the current response of many European countries, where infections are rising, is to revert back to the demonstrably futile lockdown tyranny.
I wonder why?
Your help promoting my new videos
I have made two short videos based on my book THERE IS NO CLIMATE CRISIS.
I would like your help in informing people about these videos. To do this, you just start watching each video and then click on the “Watch on YouTube”. That will take you to the place on YouTube with the video. Then you just copy the link and send it to any person, social media site or mainstream media website you can think of.
In the first video, I reveal why we shouldn’t believe any of the exaggerated claims of the Greta-worshipping, scientifically-challenged climate catastrophists. In the second video I explain what is really happening to our climate.
I apologise that the videos are far from professional. But what’s important is the story they tell and not the quality of the video production:
Last time I wrote about the ‘miracle’ vaccines, there was quite a ‘lively’ discussion.
First, let me make it clear that I’m not an anti-vaxxer and I have had both my AstraZeneca shots. I suppose I’ll also have the booster shot.
However, I believe there are some issues that should be discussed openly:
Issue 1: It’s clear that the vaccines were rushed into use without any studies of how long they gave protection. That’s understandable given the urgency to slow the spread of Fauci’s plague. Now we’re told we’ll all need booster shots. But again there is no data showing the level of adverse effects from the booster shots nor how long protection from the booster shots will last. Will we need boosters every year? Or every 6 months? Nobody knows
Issue 2: The adverse effects of the vaccines have been significantly under-reported. The fact that The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is requesting more than a half-century (55 years) to review and release information to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine to the public should be raising some red flags to all but the most dedicated pro-vaxxers
Issue 3: I can accept that all over-50s and the vulnerable should get the vaccines. But given the potential adverse reactions, given that natural protection is more effective than vaccination and given the very low mortality in younger people from the Wuhan plague, I’m troubled that we’re now being told that children as young as five need to be vaccinated:
Issue 4: Even more troubling is the news that vaccines will become mandatory in some countries and that in other countries, those refusing the vaccines will be stigmatised, persecuted and treated like lepers. Have we forgotten what happened in Europe only 80 years ago?
Issue 5: Perhaps most troubling is the almost total lack of interest shown by our rulers and the compliant mainstream media in discovering how the Wuhan Chinese plague started. Why is nobody in power at all motivated to reveal the origins of the worst calamity to hit mankind since WWII?
Issue 6: The fact that the police in a normally peaceful country like the Netherlands are now using live ammunition against those protesting against the vaccines and lockdowns should be a worrying sign that we have crossed a line from democracy to tyranny that nobody would have believed possible even a few weeks ago.
I would never claim to have the medical knowledge to take a position on any of the issues around how the plague started and how the ‘miracle’ vaccines were developed, introduced and now (in many countries) imposed. But they do raise troubling questions.
Anyway, if the ‘miracle’ vaccines are so wonderful at preventing both infections and serious illness from the Chinese military lab-leaked plague, why are the 70% or so of people who have been vaccinated so worried that maybe 3 in every 10 people don’t want largely untested chemicals developed (apart from the AstraZeneca vaccine) using largely untested new technologies injected into their bodies?
One further issue also troubles me. It is obvious that the Big Brother propaganda and coercive methods being used by politicians and the compliant mainstream media to bludgeon us into giving up our freedoms to force us into cowering compliance with the vaccination programme will next be used to similarly force us to give up our freedoms and our quality of life to supposedly ‘save the planet’ from supposed ‘catastrophic man-made climate change’.
Will we submit? Or will there be a “V for Vendetta” uprising against the one-world-government ruling elites?
Mr Gloom and Doom speaks?
Anyway, here’s Mr Doom and Gloom stating his position on the new vaccine authoritarian totalitarianism sweeping across Europe.
As Neil Oliver says, the way our rulers are using (and IMHO outrageously abusing?) their power over us to force their vaccines on us seems to be motivated more by them wanting to ensure compliance and obedience rather than being justified by the science of the plague and the vaccines:
Yesterday I wrote a blog claiming that cancelling the Birmingham to Leeds High Speed Rail link was probably the first good decision this useless bunch of flatulent, greedy, self-serving, incompetent idiots in our government had made. In all the media discussions yesterday for and against this decision, I did not hear a single person suggest that it was totally ludicrous spending billions to build a high speed train track for a train that would travel a mere 50 or so miles from Birmingham to the East Midlands Hub and then about another 50 miles from the East Midlands Hub to Leeds.
How is it possible that none of the interviewers or interviewees had the intelligence to realise this?
How I “incited violence”?
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a blog about a poster I had designed:
And I mentioned how I had this put on an advan (advertising van) to drive around Manchester for a couple of days during the Conservative Party conference:
Then, when I tried to book the same advan to drive around Glasgow during the Flop26 Climate Conference and again around London after the return of Parliament, the advan company refused the booking because their driver in Manchester had been heckled, insulted, threatened and even assaulted by global warming fanatics.
Here is the message I received from the advan company:
Thank you for your email.
After due consideration, unfortunately we will not be able to fulfil future bookings for your book as the content of the banner message is just too inflammatory.
This resulted in our driver being both verbally abused throughout the course of the Manchester operation and then physically assaulted by a member of the public. An incident attended by the police and for which I understand a man was arrested.
If you can find another contractor who is prepared to undertake the work, we would be happy to arrange for the banners to be delivered to them.
Bonhoeffer’s “Theory of Stupidity”
This trivial episode is a good example of what is called Bonhoeffer’s Theory of Stupidity
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a young German pastor who began to speak publicly against the Nazis’ use of violence. After years of trying to change people’s minds, Bonhoeffer came home one evening and his own father had to tell him that two men were waiting in his room to take him away.
In prison, Bonhoeffer began to reflect on how his country of poets and thinkers had turned into a collective of cowards, crooks and criminals. Eventually he concluded that the root of the problem was not malice, but stupidity.
In his famous letters from prison, Bonhoeffer argued that stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice, because while “one may protest against evil; it can be exposed and prevented by the use of force, against stupidity we are defenseless. Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here. Reasons fall on deaf ears.”
People who live in solitude manifest this defect less frequently than individuals in groups. And so it would seem that stupidity is perhaps less a psychological than a sociological problem.
It becomes apparent that every strong upsurge of power, be it of a political or religious nature, infects a large part of humankind with stupidity. Almost as if this is a sociological-psychological law where the power of the one needs the stupidity of the other.
The process at work here is not that particular human capacities, such as intellect, suddenly fail. Instead, it seems that under the overwhelming impact of rising power, humans are deprived of their inner independence and, more or less consciously, give up an autonomous position.
The fact that the stupid person is often stubborn must not blind us from the fact that he is not independent. In conversation with him, one virtually feels that one is dealing not at all with him as a person, but with slogans, catchwords, and the like that have taken possession of him.
He is under a spell, blinded, misused, and is abused in his very being. Having thus become a mindless tool, the stupid person will also be capable of any evil – incapable of seeing that it is evil
Bonhoeffer was hanged at dawn on 9 April 1945 at Flossenbürg concentration camp just two weeks before soldiers from the United States liberated the camp.
Stupidity, violence and the cancel culture
You’ll all probably have heard that Harry Potter author JK Rowling has not been invited onto a programme celebrating 20 years since the first Harry Potter film. It’s generally believed that the reason she has apparently been shunned is that (from the little I understand) she dared suggest a few years ago that there were just two biological sexes. This outraged the transgender activists who started screaming and howling as usual and tried to get Rowling ‘cancelled’.
The woke obsession with destroying their opponents – whether by attacking the poor guy driving my supposedly too inflammatory advan in Manchester or by getting people cancelled and even fired from their jobs – seems to be today’s version of Boenhoeffer’s Theory of Stupidity.
Supposedly intelligent and often educated people somehow abdicate their freedom to think for themselves and instead submit to a collective psychosis. Then they become obsessive believers in a cult which has no scientific basis. Moreover no amount of factual evidence that their beliefs are misguided will ever get them to change their minds. In fact, the more they are presented with facts debunking their cult, the more they will retreat into the protection of their own stupidity.
Today’s climate catastrophists – Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain – are perfect examples of Boenhoeffer’s Theory of Stupidity. The fact that they worship an autistic, undereducated schoolgirl as a modern-day saint is just further proof that their movement is a cult rather than having any scientific basis.
Howling and moaning about a useless high-speed train
The decision by the Government to cancel the Eastern leg – Birmingham to Leeds – of the £100bn+ HS2 train project has been met with a great deal of howling and moaning from various Labour politicians and, of course, the UK-hating BBC and C4 News. Shadow transport secretary Jim McMahon called the plan “a great train robbery”, and said that it amounted to “a betrayal of trust, promise and investment in the North and the Midlands”.
As far as I can see, this is about the first sensible decision this useless government has made.
Fast trains in a tiny country?
Now let me explain why it is totally ludicrous to use a high-speed train in a tiny country like England
I’ll make this part of my blog today really simple so, were any politicians or BBC or C4 News supposed ‘journalists’ to read it, even they might understand.
We’re constantly being told that that the UK is decades behind France in building a high-speed rail network. But France is a big country – about 640,000 km2. The UK is a small country – about 242,000 km2. England is an even smaller country – 130,000 km2. France has an extensive high-speed rail network – the TGV. It makes sense to have high-speed trains in a large country. It doesn’t make sense to have high-speed trains in a small country.
Now let’s go a bit deeper. The French train route from Paris to Lyon to Marseilles can probably be seen as comparable to the UK train route from London to Birmingham to Leeds in terms of how it connects major cities. But the differences in distances are huge. Paris to Lyon is 292 miles, whereas London to Birmingham is only 128 miles. And Lyon to Marseilles is 488 miles, whereas Birmingham to Leeds is only around 100 miles:
The much greater distances in France justify a high-speed rail network. But squandering over £100bn on cutting just a few minutes off the train journey time from London to Birmingham and then even fewer minutes off the train journey time from Birmingham to Leeds is utterly ludicrous.
Plus, once the stupid thing got past Birmingham, the distances between stops at the East Midlands hub and then Leeds would be so small that the train would have to start slowing down almost as soon as it got up to speed.
Moreover, as far as I understand, the new HS2 won’t start at Euston. Instead it will start at a new station to be built at Old Oak Common in West London. This means it might be quicker for business travellers from or to Central London to use the old conventional line to Euston rather than the new HS2 line to Old Oak Common station. Good grief!!!!!
In addition, the Chinese Wuhan plague lockdowns have taught many companies that they can conduct much of their business using technology such as Zoom rather than constant travelling to ‘important’ meetings. So we can expect a reduction in demand for train use in the future.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to scrap the whole worthless project.
It seems strange to me that Labour politicians and mainstream media ‘journalists’ have never bothered to look at a map and so have never noticed that it’s rather pointless building a hugely expensive high-speed railway in a tiny country like England.
Thank goodness Cop26 was a total flop. There’s an easy way to know it was a flop. Had it been a success, our priapic PM, Bunter Johnson, would have grabbed the first private jet he could find so he could puff up his ego by giving a speech on the last day of the Glasgow hot-air bletherfest claiming all the credit for himself. The fact that Bunter stayed away to let hapless Alok Sharma take the blame, shows that Bunter didn’t want to touch the putrid Cop26 mess with even an extended bargepole.
Still, Sharma will probably be shunted off to the Lords to join all the other failed politicians there and the businesspeople who stuffed a few million into Tory Party and Labour Party bank accounts. So, for Sharma the whole flatulent CO2- and hypocrisy-belching fiasco will be a pretty lucrative career move.
I wonder if Sharma is stupid enough to believe all the climate catastrophist nonsense? Or has he just eagerly jumped on the bandwagon to further his career, fill his own pockets and boost his sense of self-importance?
As for us long-suffering plebs, we can expect that our useless government will double down on its ‘green ambitions’ and impoverish us all in order to show that “Britain leads the world in cutting CO2 emissions”
2. It’s not cricket
Yesterday there was much bleating, moaning and howling about supposed racism in cricket – a sport in which I have not the slightest interest. But I did briefly check on the gentleman making all the accusations of supposed ‘racism’ and ‘humiliation’and ‘bullying’ and ‘inhuman treatment’. According the ever reliable Wikipedia, this fine chap played for Yorkshire between 2008 and 2014 and then again between 2016 to 2018.
If he was really subject to racism and bullying and inhuman treatment, why did he stay at Yorkshire so long? And why did he go back to Yorkshire in 2016?
Sorry, Mr Cricketer, I don’t believe your sob stories. Your stories of racism and suffering are (in my humble opinion) about as credible as those of the ghastly Meghan.
And then there’s the larger question: if we Brits really are such appalling racists as the BBC and C4 News repeatedly claim, why are 1,000+ pieces of Third-world garbage being shipped from French beaches to the UK by Priti ‘pretty useless’ Patel’s worthless Border Farce every day? If we were so racist, you’d think that all our Third-world friends would be queuing up at Dover attempting to escape Klu Klux Clan UK
Anyway, on to the subject of today’s blog
BBC’s Children in Need is back to pick our pockets
You’ve probably noticed that the BBC’s Children in Need is back this week. I don’t watch it, but I believe it features a bunch of z-list celebs doing supposedly ‘hilarious’ things to try to revive their flagging careers under the guise of raising money for charity.
I briefly looked at the employee costs of BBC Children in Need employees compared to a few other supposed ‘charities’:
The cost per employee (salary, pension and social costs) at the BBC’s Children in Need is around £50,000. This compares to around £30,000 at Oxfam UK, £37,000 at Shelter and £39,000 at Crisis.
Some employees at charities like Shelter and Crisis probably have to deal with some difficult situations trying to help homeless drug addicts, alcoholics and people with mental problems. But I believe that all the employees at the BBC’s Children in Need have a rather less onerous life sitting around in comfortable offices each day organising the ‘hilarious’ show and deciding which charities will get our money.
So I struggle slightly to understand why employees at the BBC’s Children in Need are paid so much. The only explanation I can think of is that anyone employed by any organisation in any way connected with the BBC will always be hugely overpaid.
The other thought I had was: why do we need two huge charities like Shelter and Crisis to help the homeless? If we knocked these two charities together, we could probably save £10,000,000 or so which might be better spent on the homeless than on duplicating executives and marketing managers and financial controllers and others of their ilk.
In my weekend blog, I raised the question of how Sweden managed to have some of the lowest Chinese plague death rates in Europe without imposing lockdowns and without destroying the country’s economy:
(left-click on chart then left-click again to see very clearly)
What happened to ‘natural immunity’?
I ain’t no epidemiologist. But the only explanation I can think of for Sweden’s success is that Sweden vaccinated the country’s most vulnerable citizens and allowed the rest to build up natural immunity from suffering mild infections from Fauci’s plague. From the little I understand, natural immunity gives more than ten times as much protection as the supposed miracle vaccines. Moreover, now we know that the vaccines only give around 6 months protection from the plague, it seems that natural immunity is the only way we will get long-lasting protection.
Yet, in spite of clear evidence that natural immunity is the only real, long-term solution to the Wuhan plague, our rulers have become obsessed with vaccinating everybody and threatening to destroy the lives of those who are concerned about the vaccines’ possible side-effects.
We all love our wonderfully safe vaccines
It’s difficult to get reliable figures on how many vaccinated people have suffered from adverse reactions. The day after my first jab, I got a serious case of inflammation of the sciatic nerve and couldn’t walk properly for over a month. When I went to a private GP (because the NHS seems to have stopped treating British taxpayers), he told me it couldn’t be anything to do with the vaccine as nobody else had reported similar problems. But speaking to my sister later, I found out she had exactly the same sciatic nerve problem after her first jab. But her GP told her that it couldn’t have anything to do with the vaccine as nobody else had reported similar problems.
There seems to be a bit of a pattern emerging: person tells GP about adverse reaction – GP says it has nothing to do with the vaccine because nobody else has reported that reaction – person doesn’t report adverse reaction – as people have been put off reporting that adverse reaction by their GPs, GP tells next patient with that adverse reaction that nobody has reported that adverse reaction so it can’t have been caused by the vaccine.
Killing me softly with his vaccine?
We know that a small number of vaccinated people have suffered from Myocarditis (an inflammation of the heart muscle). We don’t know if this is due to the vaccines themselves or because the injection has accidentally gone into a blood vessel (because the innoculators aren’t aspirating) taking the vaccine straight to the heart.
I wonder if the recent number of young, fit sportspeople collapsing and sometimes dying could have anything to do with myocarditis from the ‘miracle’ vaccines?
Still, at least there are two certainties in life:
if these young sportspeople have been killed by inflammation of the heart muscle caused by a vaccine, this will probably never be investigated
even if it were to be investigated, we plebs would never be told the result as it might put us off having endless vaccines and booster shots
Britain’s great health expert – the Mekon – has spoken:
Sajid Javid has warned us ignorant, unwashed, stupid plebs that, if we don’t behave ourselves, then he’ll lock us down again and again and again and …………. The Mekon claims that the coming lockdowns will be necessary because he is ‘following the science’ and the ‘experts’ insist that lockdowns are the only way to control the Fauci, Wuhan-lab-leaked Chinese plague.
Moreover, other European countries – Denmark, Netherlands and Germany – are also imposing new restrictions on people’s personal freedoms as Fauci infections start rising again there. Austria seems to be going even further as they (from what I have read) are locking down any citizens who have not been vaccinated. Perhaps the Austrians will soon force the unvaccinated to wear yellow stars:
After all, Austrians are just Germans in disguise. They like following orders – befehl ist befehl – and probably have a few yellow stars left over from the 1930s.
Following the science?
There are at least two issues raised when the Mekon and his acolytes – Van Tam, Vallance and Whitty – claim they are ‘following the science’ with their new threats of lockdowns.
Firstly, apparently our government had plans for dealing with a major pandemic and nowhere in those plans was there any mention of using lockdowns and wrecking our economy and the livelihoods of millions. The lockdown option seems to have been something the ‘experts’ dreamed up as they panicked when Fauci Chinese plague infections went through the roof.
The second issue is that the only European country which didn’t lock down its citizens – Sweden – appears to have an extremely low rate of Chinese plague hospitalisations per million of population:

Sweden also has one of the lowest rates of deaths per million of population from the Fauci plague:
When in a hole, keep digging?
I can understand that, at the start of the WuFlu outbreak, panicking politicians went down the lockdown route as they saw the chaos in Italy and then Spain with people dying in hospital corridors. But we have now had two years of Xi Pingpong’s Wuhan-lab, biological weapon plague. Now we have a real-world case study – Sweden – which didn’t go for lockdowns and yet had much better results than the lockdown countries.
If our rulers were genuinely ‘following the science’, an ignoramus like myself might think surely they would copy Sweden rather than just repeating their own failed lockdown policies? But if our rulers were to abandon their lockdown mania, that would mean admitting they got it wrong. That would mean there was no need to wreck our economy. That would mean hundreds of thousands of businesses were destroyed and millions lost their jobs for nothing.
That would mean exposing our rulers to ridicule for their stupidity and incompetence. So, even though Sweden has spent two years showing us how to manage the pandemic, our rulers are trapped into repeating their own failed policies.
When in a hole ………
Manipulating the masses?
Incidentally, I’ve noticed that when it looked like things were going to go horribly wrong in Sweden, our mainstream media seemed to delight in heaping opprobrium on Sweden’s more laissez faire approach to managing the Chinese plague. But now that the Swedish approach has proved to be the right one, our mainstream media seem to have gone very quiet indeed about Sweden’s success.
It’s almost as if our mainstream media are taking their marching orders from the government’s Behavioural Insights Team (affectionately known as the ‘Nudge Unit’) and that current orders from our government are ‘terrify the plebs into cowering obedience again’.
Here’s a definition of the word ‘totalitarian’ – relating to a system of government that is centralized and dictatorial and requires complete subservience to the state.
Lockdowns, mandatory vaccines, no jab no job, vaccine passports, no travel without the correct papers, demonisation of those who won’t submit – this all sounds pretty totalitarian to me.
