Roaring with anger, getting ready to attack: the British Lion 

 

The Nation is aghast and furious: BJ has cancelled Christmas even though a few days ago he told the Nation that this would be inhumane. We can now call him ‘inhumane’ and it’s not hate speech because this came out of his own mouth. Who spoke last to BJ – the unholy you V & W? Hancock? Someone else? We know by now that BJ does what the last person he speaks to tells him to do and never mind what he proclaimed earlier.

I’ll not bore you with the various opinion pieces and editorials in our papers: the authors have as much covid-knowledge as we all do, simply because this is a new virus about which nothing was known. Therefore, nothing much was there to be studied and they as well as we started from level zero. 

In contrast to the MSM authors we however have been reading papers and articles by sceptic scientists, we were listening to podcasts or watching videos with open minds. We weren’t tied to editorial guidelines which clearly determined how ‘Our MSM’ have been reporting on covid since this ‘pandemic’ started nearly a year ago. I surely don’t need to remind you that the best source for proper covid ‘news’ is Lockdown Sceptics. Their Newsletter for today (link) is no exception.

Now let’s look at the “reason” for scrapping our Christmas which BJ, V & W have presented us with. Let’s look at some ‘details’ which certain authors dripped into their articles. They provide us with an excellent basis from which to ask ‘why’, from which to criticise the ‘scientific reasoning’ used by the Covid mafia to try and clobber us into submission. The following quotes are from the mouths of the three horses, the prime horse first:

“The prime minister said he understood how important Christmas was to people, but warned that without action “infections would soar, hospitals would become overwhelmed, and many thousands more would lose their lives. He said: “When the virus changes its method of attack, we must change our method of defence. And as your prime minister, I sincerely believe there is no alternative open to me.” (link, paywalled)

Note the use of ‘would -would -would’: it’s a projection, there is no evidence. As for saying out loud that the virus has ‘changed its method of attack’ is so scientifically inane that words simply fail me. It’s still covid, mutation or not, and the ‘method of defence’ is the same we’ve been clobbered with since March: lockdowns. Now see the second horse:

“The chief medical officer for England, Chris Whitty, said the mutant strain did not appear to cause higher death rates or be any more resistant to Covid-19 vaccines but was up to 70% more infectious.” (link, paywalled)

For ‘more infectious’ read: more PCR test results. We surely know by now that ‘case numbers’ are not ‘dying in our hospitals’. We surely know by now that this mutant has been around since September. Have the test labs been told to look out for this mutant since September – and only ‘found’ it in the past couple of weeks? Some infectiousness, that! The BMJ, not exactly a source of ‘antiscience covid conspiration’, has published a summary regarding this mutant which you might like to read here. Lastly, here’s the third horse:

“This [new variant] is a particular constellation of changes, which we think is important,” said Sir Patrick. He added that there was “no evidence” the new strain was more virulent but there were “theoretical reasons” to suggest it may alter the human immune response.” (paywalled link)

Why, a perplexed and angry peasant might ask, do we need to cancel Christmas when scientists, even the government’s own scientists, say that there’s no evidence that ‘we’re gonna die’ from this new mutant? Here’s a rather interesting quote regarding mortality, from the deputy director-general of the European Bioinformatics Institute in Cambridge, Ewan Birney, who told the DT that: “he did not think it likely the new strain would impact on mortality.” (paywalled link). Indeed, there’s no excess death as EuroMOMO documents. For their latest graph of UK data, scroll down hereAre these official data unknown to the PM and his health czar? Words fail me!

Old cynic that I am, I think that there’s one main reason for this inhumane decision to rob us of our Christmas. It’s to ‘nudge’ us into accepting mass vaccination. After all, if “we” want an end to these draconian covid measures, all we have to do is get vaccinated. Even the mutant strain doesn’t mean we shouldn’t clamour to get that jab.

The third horse said so, and there’s a supporting, warbly opinion piece in The Times, praising the vaccines and vaccination under the shouty headline “Vaccine is only weapon against perfect pathogen”  (link, paywalled). This was penned by a professor of immunology at Imperial College London – the Ferguson place. So forgive me when my reaction was ‘he would have to say that’. There’s more, again by a professor of immunology at Ferguson’s place, a Professor Altmann, who told the DT:

”As far as I can see this [spread of the mutant] greatly strengthens the case for all to get vaccinated as soon as possible: the vaccines induce neutralising antibodies to several parts of spike (‘epitopes’) and most of these would be unchanged by the mutations – so the vaccines will still work.” (paywalled link)

There it is: vaccination will work, it’ll ‘defeat’ the virus, mutated or not. ‘Teh Science’ has spoken.

Finally, there’s a truly cynical explanation for the scrapping of Christmas in the DT, by their ‘global health editor, Mr Nuki, from whom we’ve not heard for some time. After explaining why poor BJ could do no other, he writes:

“Almost every year British hospitals fill up in the weeks following Christmas threatening a crisis in the NHS. This is caused by a range of factors […] but a large part of it is dictated by Christmas itself and the rules of contagion. A paper published early this month in the Journal of Infection describes how pneumonia in older groups is associated with holiday periods. It suggests that children and young people catch respiratory infections in the run-up to Christmas and pass it to older groups who come down with pneumonia a few weeks later. The same is likely to be true of Covid.” (paywalled link)

Words fail me – again! Actually, I am speechless. Yes, we all recall the annual wails from ‘Our NHS’ after every Christmas, about being unable to cope. Why then did we not have lockdowns, why did we not have our Christmases cancelled in previous years, all the way down to the foundation of “Our NHS” in 1948? Was ‘Our Sacred Cow’ not worthy of protection in those years?

What has changed? Has covid totally impaired rational thought in our governing classes, even that of the government scientists? Why is it that vaccination has suddenly  become the be-all and end-all of covid treatment? Why have doctors suddenly abandoned the principle of prophylaxis, i.e. prevention by early treatment? Is it because they can’t control what many of us plebs are already doing to protect ourselves, for example taking Vitamin D? 

Here’s another thought. We remember that ‘Test & Trace’ has been the preferred government instrument of ‘controlling’ the virus and that the best ‘test’ is PCR. Never mind the many articles showing that the ‘case numbers’ produced by this method are giving false pictures due to the many false positives. Now however the WHO – the organisation which has pushed T & T on the world, has come up with a disclaimer. LockdownSceptics reports:

“The World Health Organisation has issued a medical alert drawing attention to the limitations of PCR tests and reminding users that for clinical diagnosis an examination of symptoms is required” (link)

In my view – I’m only a lowly, retired scientist so what do I know – this could mean that we’ll see a retreat from the ‘test & trace’ control. Our health czars would then need another control instrument – and lo and behold, here it is: mass vaccination. Look at the timing: the various mRNA vaccines have now been approved here and in the USA. The EU is still shuffling papers but will follow. Who will now believe the various statements by politicians that there won’t be mandatory vaccinations or ‘vaccine passports’ …!

But that’s for the future. While people are already saying that they won’t let their Christmas be cancelled and won’t follow that rule, there’s one aspect which bodes badly for our political future. BJ rushed this announcement out after he’d sent Parliament into their Christmas recess. MPs had no way or means to scrutinise this decision, never mind the ‘promise’ of Hancock. The Tory ‘Covid Rebels’ have now

“called for the latest changes to the rules to be put to a vote in Parliament at the “earliest opportunity”, even if doing so meant recalling MPs just days after they rose for the Christmas recess.” (paywalled link)

Sir John Redwood also chimed in, in his Diary this morning:

“Parliament needs to debate and vote on these measures. It appears Parliament will have another chance to debate and vote on these controls only later in the new year.” (link)

What good is scrutiny when it only comes ‘after the fact’? What good is scrutiny when the Tory rebels have already swallowed the ‘belief’ that mass vaccination is the only ‘way out’? Why are they not asking the relevant questions, about PCR tests, about ‘case numbers’, about evidence for excess deaths? Yes, words fail me again!

It is obvious to me that “we” unruly peasants are being given what amounts to a preemptive punishment by this inhumane cancellation of Christmas. It’s meant to make us even more submissive. Muzzle wearing is no longer sufficient – ”we” must get the jab if we want to celebrate Christmas in 2021. 

Where are the MPs who surely must remove this PM now? Cowering at home, behind their Zooms? Playing with their WhatsApp? Or are they hiding to let us, the people, take the initiative even as protesters keep getting beaten up by police, without one murmur of a voice raised from those allegedly representing us?

I’ve been fewmin with anger, for hours. I’ve been spitting feathers while bouncing off the walls in fury. That’s why words fail me!

 

KBO!
