Reminder that they supposedly “debated” the following petition in Parliament:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/575801 – Outlaw discrimination against those who do not get a Covid-19 vaccination
Long story short: It was no debate. All the MPs involved were falling over eachother to praise the vaccines. At no point did they discuss medical discrimination. Maybe it’s time to write to our representatives and let them know that we do not approve of their little hand puppet show. It is clear that they have no plan to stop any such discrimination. On the contrary, I think they are relying on it in order to give people no choice.

It is time to realise that these “hand puppets” are not reformable and that the way out of the Covid nightmare will not come from cowardly and corrupt MPs.
Also, time to realise that petitions are largely ineffective and useless, other than to gauge public opinion, because all responses are steered and controlled by the useful (less) idiots, who work for the cult. Their job is to ensure they go nowhere!

“New Covid variant found in Kentucky nursing home has deadly mutations…”
Yeah…right. Gotta keep ladling on the fear porn quota to get those elderly booster shots in!
Like peaceful protests, and undirected violent ones, petitions are a safety valve to avoid pressure building to the point where effective action is taken.
Forgive me if I got this wrong but…40 minutes and only about 5 speakers? To discuss something clearly of huge national interest, especially the millions who have chosen to exercise their god-given rights to their own sovereignty and not take an experimental jab? This is ridiculous. As you say, no debate at all. This is democracy?
Not only 5 speakers, but 5 speakers in a circle jerk, falling over themselves to praise the vaccine.
It makes zero difference. I had a long email conversation with mine, he still thinks ‘we should do anything we can to stop the spread’
He can’t/won’t see that it’s discrimination or overly authoritarian he, like most of them, is only focused on towing the party line. We are nothing to them.
El Gato Malo, substack:winter is coming, and the vaccine narrative is about to shift “it was “high season” not “low vaccine” driving the southern surge. and it’s starting to invert. the northeast is next.…. i hate to keep landing here and really, truly want to be wrong, but this keeps pulling me back to the “vaccinated superspread hypothesis” which is exactly where we all wish we were not. “the current surge in covid deaths is caused by the vaccinated.the covid vaccines are extremely leaky and may well accelerate contracting and carrying covid.they allow for very high viral loads to go unnoticed and generate a new and severe asymptomatic spread vector to where none existed before.the high viral loads lead to greater contagion. they may lead to greater severity (but this data is iffy and contested)vaccine campaigns cause superspread events because vaccination leads to a 2 week window of 40-100% more covid risk that then gets counted as “unvaccinated” because the definitions are bad.this combination makes those vaccinated with one dose or more into superspread bombs.” this is still, i want to stress, a hypothesis and one i hope fails to prove out, but i can still find no better fit to this data and it remains, to… Read more »
Still trying to debate gravity in the hope that it’ll go away?
Viruses are not bacteria and not capable of independent reproduction. Virus replication is directly damaging to the host body. Hence, high viral load going unnoticed is an impossible situation.
Sweden’s cultural revolution
Not just Sweden’s.
So the suggestion is the harm done ultimately results in a withdrawal of support for the harmful policies. But who is going to undo the harm already done, or compensate the victims of the harassment by zealots pushing those harmful policies? How will those zealots ever face proper consequences for what they did? Harm has been done that cannot be undone in less than generations.
“As I asked the Cabinet Minister, why is it anyone else’s business whether someone is jabbed or not? It’s up to the Strictly dancers themselves to decide what vaccinations they choose to get – and they shouldn’t face losing their jobs for not being jabbed.“
An illustrative clip from talkradio posted to their twitter account. JHB interviewing George Eustace (Environment Secretary), trying (and failing) to get a straight answer out of him on “vaccine”-based employment discrimination.
All well and good, but at the outset Eustace asserts, unchallenged:
“We want the maximum possible uptake of the vaccine, it’s been the thing that has allowed us to come out of lockdown, to remove those restrictions”
This is a falsehood, and one which absolutely can and should be challenged robustly, but never is.
ITEM: “Snap shutdown of construction industry on the cards after Melbourne tradie protest turns violent” – Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is expected to shut down the construction industry after protests against jabs for tradies turned violent, reports 7 News. Well,The Dear Leader, Dan Andrews, has pulled the lockdown trigger (for at least two weeks – which in Corona Speak means four, or six, or more weeks) for the construction industry which had, until now, been spared any of Victoria’s world record 234 lockdown days, deeming building and construction an essential industry which poses little risk of virus transmisssion because most of the work takes place out in the open. No doubt, the exemption, aslo had something to do with the political/industrial symbiosis between the powerful union (the CFMEU) and the state Labor government, gresed by the union member’s dues which flowed in part to support the coffers of the Labor Party. Things initially began to sour when the government announced new building site rules that included the closure of tearooms and a ban on consuming food or drinks indoors (because of ‘Covid’, of course). The next announcement that all construction workers had just one week to show proof of ‘vaccination’ or… Read more »
Interesting stuff, thanks. We are very obviously from opposite political sides in normal times, but both our sides have utterly betrayed us over covid, to varying degrees. I think the left has gone for covid insanity deeper and harder than has the right, in general, but there has been plenty of shame on both sides. The Melbourne confrontation the other day was fascinating and I imagine would benefit from analysis based on the older leftist world-view – working classes looking for leadership from their supposed representatives, not getting it and turning on them angrily. But no doubt as you say the focus of the political establishment, mainstream media (perhaps not the Murdoch-owned media – not sure where they are on this) and social media establishment there will be on “right-wing” extremists and agitators “exploiting” the issue. Determinedly refusing to confront the real underlying issues, no doubt. Leaves you in a doubly isolated position, I imagine, as both a coronapanic dissenter and a leftist (I use the term here descriptively, without pejorative intent). We live in interesting times. Sadly for us, and for the world. “tipped the scales into defiant anger and protests (‘riots’, the media called them). ” No doubt you’ve… Read more »
Hi ya, Mark.
Yes, much of the political right has failed on Covid and nearly all of the Left has failed, failed ‘Bigly’, in fact, on Covid. The left/right analytic has been pretty useless, in fact, on trying to understand the bone-headed response to Covid – both sides have embraced hysteria to varying levels, with the Left leading the field.
I’m not sure that the better division wouldn’t be between those who are afraid/terrified of the virus and willing to cheer on all sorts of draconian restrictions to make them ‘feel safe’ vs those who aren’t afraid of Covid and willing to keep their heads when all about them are losing theirs. The Hysterics vs the Sane.
On hypocrisy, however, the Left takes the cake (as this graphic from the hellhole of Victoria – ruled by Andrews, a creature of the Labor Party’s ‘Socialist left’ faction).
Well left and right were here before covid and will be here afterwards, but the context is always shifting. “I’m not sure that the better division wouldn’t be between those who are afraid/terrified of the virus and willing to cheer on all sorts of draconian restrictions to make them ‘feel safe’ vs those who aren’t afraid of Covid and willing to keep their heads when all about them are losing theirs. The Hysterics vs the Sane.“ Yes, that;’s absolutely a vital distinction. But there is mileage in examining people’s particular motives based on their underlying attitudes and preexisting loyalties, as for instance you did above, when pointing out that the CMFEU’s collaborationist attitude on state vaccine mandates is doubtless related to their desire not to make trouble for the ruling Labor elite, or I would here in noting that a lot of support for some of the worst measures amongst “Conservative” Party supporters has been based either on partisan loyalty or the kind of instinctive authoritarianism that plagues particular kinds of right-wingers (leftists have their own version, of course). In these times, liberals of left and right do need to band together,because the authoritarians of both sides are pushing in… Read more »
No one is talking about Denmark.
They have now down-graded covid to an irrelevance, and there now no laws that enable governments to lockdown.
Basically, covid is completely over in Denmark.
Vaxports?
The Danes lifted all COVID restrictions two weeks ago and guess what? SARS Cov2 infections have fallen by 50% in ten days. Israel on the other hand…one of the most vaxxed nations on the planet recently had a huge spike in Covid infections despite grinding on with draconian restrictions throughout this summer.
The MSM pimping Build Back Better narratives isn’t interested in the “truthful” science.
Good point, I think that it will be a good idea to keep an eye on Denmark.
Like Sweden it will be a ‘control study’ for minimal intervention – just as Israel is for maximum intervention.
I’m in no way suggesting that violence is an answer, I am all about peace and peaceful solutions, but on twitter a few months back, there was a hardcore warning to the politicians and traitors in the Danish government – described by this group who had hacked their accounts as disgusting paedophiles and criminals – not dissimilar from the lowlifes we employ in Westminster. The warning was very strong – it was like, we know who you are, we know where you live, keep this up and you will pay the full price – ie they will be hunted down AND exposed as human filth. Now Denmark is COVID-FASCISM free. I cannot vouch for whether or not this had an influence. Among the people who issued the warning were many retired police, military, security and IT experts who hacked the home accounts of their child raping overlords.
Note the final statement by BoJo in his speech to the UN:
’A climate summit of world leaders in 40 days’ time will be the “turning point for humanity”, PM Boris Johnson has said in a speech to the United Nations.
He warned that global temperature rises were already inevitable, but called on his fellow leaders to commit to major changes to curb further warming.
Four areas needed tackling – “coal, cars, cash and trees”, he said.
Countries must take responsibility for “the destruction we are inflicting, not just upon our planet but ourselves”.
“It’s time for humanity to grow up,” he added ahead of the UK hosting the COP26 summit in Glasgow.
The prime minister also said it was time to listen to the warnings of scientists. “Look at Covid if you want an example of gloomy scientists being proved right.”’
” Countries must take responsibility for “the destruction we are inflicting, not just upon our planet but ourselves”. Well I guess Oberfurher Johnson is now an expert on reeking destruction on a country, the last 18 months in the UK indicate that it is the only thing he ia good at! His analysis that we need to tackle coal, cars, cash and trees is ominous. Coal = asian coal fired power stations over which we have no control, for the UK cars = the end of cheap egalitarian travel freedom for the majority of the population and what does he mean by ‘cash? paying for eco changes? or Is this a nod to the end of cash and the start of digital I.D. and digital currency?
One of the news links is to the SDP and a piece by William Clouston, I do not know about all their policies? but he sounds a bit more realistic and sensible, although probably unlikely to make an electoral breakthrough. Will the UK public wake up to the reality of where the Tories green climate change policies are taking us before it is too late?
Look at Covid if you want an example of lying, venal scientists grovelling to lying terrorist politicians.
Oh, the irony!
“The prime minister also said it was time to listen to the warnings of scientists. “Look at Covid if you want an example of gloomy scientists being proved right.”’
LOL! Incredible!
But you can get away with this kind of absurd outright lie when you are pushing in the direction the media, and elites generally, want to go.
“Why did Boris go along with Joe Biden’s absurd mask play-acting?”
Because it’s virtue signalling theatre play to reinforce Covidian Cult status – The global elites go face nappy free however the plebians “MUST” to show docile compliance by being constantly muzzled.
As an aside moments later they both dropped the façade.
‘Course they did! Don’t they always? They don’t even care if they get photographed moments later having a love-in. The sheep will always only buy the first picture!
Rot in hell wankers
Turning point for humanity!? What a nob.
Sorry….must have missed something. WHICH scientist was that then, that was proved right??? None come to mind right now. Mind you he got the “gloomy” bit right. It’s been nothing but a sh*t show of fear, lies, manipulation, fear…and lies!
Whitty says 50% of kids have had covid (and are therefore immune). I am not aware of any healthy kids dying from covid. Is it not statistically reasonable to assume there will be no deaths of healthy kids when the other 50% have had covid. How ever he spins it – children do not need this experimental ‘vaccine’ for any reason.
What will be the total death toll of healthy kids when they have had Whitty’s vaccine? Is one death too many, or does that just apply to covid?
Collateral damage.
Denmark and Sweden.

All vaccines are equal but some are more equal than others.
Vaccine passports won’t work then?
I haven’t had any of the current vaccines and will not unless held down and unable to fight back. I got Covid in July (and survived – oh yes even though I am 66 – who would have believed it – I’m being sarcastic). I could have (if I felt there were benefits including travel) the more normally produced ‘inactivated virus’ vaccines made by Novovax and Valneva which are – I believe – getting good results in Phase 3 safety trials and are waiting for approval to roll out in the UK (apparently we have ordered millions of these too). My question is and I think your post answers it Margaret, will these vaccines be recognized as allowing travel to Europe and back? Anyone have any views? No-one ‘in charge’ will know of course – as they don’t appear to know anything……….
Sorry to disappoint you Keencook but the government has already cancelled the order for Valneva vaccines. It had ordered 60 million doses plus another 40 million in reserve. The government claims that Valneva had been in breach of its supply agreement but Valneva strenuously denies this.
OH and I too had been pinning our hopes on Valneva if we needed a vaccine in order to travel again. As OH says, we are not getting any younger and have already had two years of travel stolen from us.
It did cross my mind that the cancellation occurred because, having seen the results coming out of places like Israel, the government now realised that buying even more vaccines would be a waste of money. I think I read somewhere that some 90 million doses of swine flu vaccine, purchased by Gordon Brown, are still being stored in warehouses somewhere.
More likely cancelled because it was too harmless.
Oh good, they can trot it out as covvijabs.

Too late for Boris Johnson to grow-up but there’s no humanity in him anyway.
‘Coal’ – I’ve had running battle with brainless electricity supplier ever since 2014.
‘Cars’ – From 1st Sept 21 I have to use most costly fuel in my car – it’s too old for E10. I’ve fought long and hard to keep that car, no way am I giving up on it now.
‘Trees’ – Network Rail, councils et al hacking-down thousands of acres of trees in Britain – 25 to 100 years before any planted now as effective at absorbing carbon dioxide. Vast green-field sites suffocated by new-builds and town-centres derelict.
‘Cash’ – Many more people paying with cash than before – we’re defending it
I can’t confirm this but I’ve heard it suggested that premium unleaded may be more cost effective than regular now that there’s less petrol in the fuel. The watering down of the fuel essentially makes the petroleum more expensive and less economical.
Black Lives Matter Is Threatening An ‘Uprising’ Against ‘Racist’ Vaccine Mandates “It’s a rule in the national media that vaccine hesitancy is worthy of shame and scorn, right up until it collides with their most precious cause, the Black Lives Matter movement. Hesitant (white) nurses? Outcast. Hesitant (white) Facebook moms? Shun. Hesitant (white) Trump supporters? Guillotine. But there’s oddly been no prescription for the Black Lives Matter crew in New York who are accusing the city of racial discrimination by mandating vaccines for public, indoor activity.” Bloody hell! It’s clearly a quandary for the msm who don’t know which way to lie on this issue. But it’s an issue for me as well. BLM is an evil organisation, beyond question. Based on the blood libel against US police that they target blacks for racist killings, and built around the dishonest misrepresentation as a saint, of a thug who got his comeuppance for his life choices at the hands of a violent individual policeman, it operates to empower the worst kinds of identity lobbyists, push the worst kinds of illiberal indoctrination and wokery, and to intimidate dissenters by mob mobilisation backed by massive elite propaganda. So too is “vaccine” coercion evil, beyond dispute.… Read more »
It is tricky indeed. But just now, I’d support anyone who is against vaxxing for any reason, albeit with profound misgivings where BLM is concerned. Churchill, after all, allied Britain with Stalin’s Russia. It was one devil or rhe other. Just now I think the vaxx fascism is the greater evil.
Fair enough. But I’ll wait to see if the BLM bad guys actually do something substantial first. In this country, at least, we seem to still be in Nazi-Soviet Pact territory as far as I’ve seen.
I think this was posted here the other day by a Lithuanian, but it’s important enough to highlight repeatedly. Not sure if it has been covered atl.
Covid Pass in Lithuania and throughout Europe:How recent vaccine mandate laws have upended my family’s life18-Sep-21
The utter shameful evil of the discriminatory “vaccine” coercers.
Latest from Dr Sebastian Rushworth in Sweden, who has been excellently sceptical on the covid panic from the start: A reflection on covid mania “At the beginning of this year I wrote about how the governments of the world had created a collective state of hysteria so intense that the only way they could dig themselves out of the hole they had made was with a magic bullet. That magic bullet was, of course, the vaccines. I wrote that it didn’t really matter how effective the vaccines were in the real world, or whether they prevented transmission. All that mattered was getting every single person on the planet to take the vaccine, after which the politicians would be able to declare victory. It’s now eight months later, and we can conclude that the prediction has come to pass. … After a year of massive fear mongering by governments and the media, it would have been impossible not to offer the vaccine to everyone who wanted it. Even those not at risk believed they were in danger and demanded the vaccine. There was thus always going to be a massive vaccine uptake. But that wasn’t enough. Because it couldn’t be. The logic created… Read more »

This is a special conference led by Vivaine Fisher from the Corona Committee.
It goes into proper medical detail on what is in these “vaccines” There are slides which show metallic objects moving in the “vaccines” It suggests to me that the “mad” theories about transhumanism could have merit, as some of these objects are clearly engineered nanobot type objects.
The part on the vaccine contents starts at about 1.19.
There is a good presentation from a German surgeon who is working with a group of international doctors to investigate and publicise this.
Much of the conference is hard to follow because of the translation, which is hurried out, due to the importance and urgency of getting this information out as soon as possible, given the need to protect children from being experimented on with these deadly injections.
Please publicise and share
