So the Civil Servants are refusing to work, meanwhile tens of thousands of NHS workers are marching and fighting for their right to be allowed to work?! what a world
Skiving blighters. The whole rotten system needs reforming. Sir Nigel Farage said the other day that he would like to be minister for reforming the civil service if he was in government (and if there was such a post).
Yes Prime Minister? That’s not the half of it!
Nigel Farage isn’t a knight, yet, is he, along with Keir Starmer and Ed Davey?
No, you have to be a jolly good boy to be a knight, like Sir Witless, or Sir Anthony, rather than trying to reform things and discomfit those in the cosy cabal of big politics, big business, the civil service, the BBC and the rest of the crooks (I’ve been wanting to say that for a long time!).
I expect Sir Carl Hannigan and Sir Toby Young and Sir Norman Fenton and Sir Mike Yeadon and any heroes of the resistance won’t be knighted either.
Ah yes, Sir Keir Starmer, the man who tried to stop “Brexit” – that’s the sort of man to have as a knight of the realm!
It is a well-deserved virtual knighthood, unlike the ‘real’ knighthoods of scum like witless!
It is a well-deserved virtual knighthood, unlike the ‘real’ knighthoods of scum like witless!
Or of Sir Lewis Hamilton. A fricken knighthood? (Not trying to lump him in as scum, though I certainly don’t like his attitude). I know we have knighted a few other racing drivers, they were a different kettle of person.
Actually, I was never anti-monarchy or anything, but I do now think that our monarchy, and the whole knight type of thing is patently anachronistic. Well past its Best Before date.
My commie brother always slagged off the monarchy, and I used to think, well, they’re not that terrible, and their lives are not their own etc, but now I don’t think I could find myself having much sympathy at all.
I know we have knighted a few other racing drivers, they were a different kettle of person.
Before anyone gets their knickers in a twist, I suppose I had better make it clear: a different kettle of fish/person – in that Hamilton might be a decent driver, but he is not in the same league as the others in terms of maturity and attitude.
Plus, he lives in Monaco so as not to pay UK tax.
Well worth a gong.
How COVID Jabs Wreck Your Immune Function
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2022/01/23/covid-shots-suppress-immune-system.aspx
We now have more details than ever about the mRNA jabs, and it makes one thing very clear: The shots suppress your innate immune system. By inhibiting type-1 interferon, they can raise your risk of malignancy and tumors, and allow dormant viruses like herpes and shingles to emerge. How COVID Shots Suppress Your Immune System

The vaccines suppress the immune system for about two weeks, but – surprise, surprise – you are not considered vaccinated until two weeks after getting the jab. This means that infections caught in this vulnerable period, although probably caused by the vaccine, are not counted as effects of vaccination. Yet another type of vaccine adverse event not recorded.
” ‘Saint’ Jacinda’s 24 day isolation for ‘covid’ contacts”.
Aye, and she wants to ban smoking and all. Absolute WEF nut job.
Just another day in The Land Of The Long White Incisors.
She is an amateur: let’s just have our brains removed and put into little (operative word) containers, all cosily networked to a loving central computer. Ah, bliss – no more flawed and messy bodies. Sorted!
Names of people in media who fought on the side of the Nazis for two years and are now pretending they were always in the Resistance:’
Andrew Neil
Piers Morgan
David Starkey
Jeremy Vine
Carole Malone
We’ll curate the names here as the list grows. Let’s not forget Richard Madeley tearing up the Yellow Card injury data on live TV either. These people are guilty of endorsing and supporting a regime that killed hundreds of thousands of people via lockdowns, denial of healthcare and gene therapy mandates. They do not get to walk it back.
Any estimates about of how many people (in the UK alone) have died so far as a result of the human rights abuses, and how many more may die?
I’m assuming it will total well over 100,000 now (which would more than be enough to render the lockdowns a disastrous mistake (at best) by any reasonable measure).
Of course, UK measures have been directly responsible for deaths in other countries too (eg Kenya).
Govt suggest 200k. As opposed to the <7000 who died FROM Covid.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/07/19/lockdown-may-cost-200k-lives-government-report-shows/
Is there a charge of “Governmental Manslaughter”, comparable to Corporate Manslaughter?
Though those who produce a public mea culpa should be taken off and welcomed to the party.
Starkey was anti-lockdown wasn’t he??
One of the early links I remember posting here was to David Starkey highlighting the panic nature of the response.
David Starkey: Covid-19 — Britain’s Disastrous Response Will Have Devastating Consequences
Premiered May 16, 2020
I don’t recall now where he was on the “vaccines”, and it’s possible he was insufficiently anti them for horse and that’s why he is “on the list”.
he was anti lockdown, then he became persona non grata, followed by getting reaccepted by being strongly pro-vaccine. I remember interviews with him being his usual belligerent ascerbic self castigating the idiocy as he saw it of those who did not want to be jabbed
While I am very angry with those who obviously fought on the side of the covid Nazis I must confess that they don’t make me nearly as angry as the ones who pre-covid would usually have been very vocal when it came to abuse of human rights, government oppression of freedoms, censorship etc etc etc but who have remained absolutely silent throughout the entire 18 months – not a single peep from those I would really have expected to voice their concerns about the abuse of government powers and the suppression of free speech etc – its the ones who remained silent who could have made a difference if they had said something – they are the ones I am more angry with than anyone else – in fact their silence felt like a complete betrayal to be honest. A lot of eminent individuals I once held in high regard I have now become totally disenchanted with – I could never read another book or listen to another album or watch another play or movie of theirs ever again knowing that by remaining silent they were complicit in this covid nazi-esque authoritarianism.
Yes, human rights organisations that don’t support human rights are much more worrying than the whining/opining of weird people in the media.
But the people making me really angry at the moment are those at large companies (and it is large companies) who have decreed that they won’t cover sick pay for unvaxxed employees who have been told they need to isolate by the government. A list of them, so we can avoid them, would be useful.
its the ones who remained silent who could have made a difference if they had said something – they are the ones I am more angry with than anyone else
Yes, and those incessantly pouring petrol on the fire. All more contemptible In my eyes.
Andrew Neil
I used to quite like watching him. But after his ‘let’s get the vaxx refuseniks’ article (have it in front of me). He can fuck right off.
Richard Madeley
Wasn’t he kind of on this side of the fence at one point?
Agree with you about Brillo.
Always felt some sympathy for Madeley, on account of his other half.
“Rwandans ‘vaccinated’ by force”.
I wonder if the perpetrators will end up in The Hague, or if the Guardian will give prominent coverage to this serious human rights abuse – or whether they will continue to justify measures that have led to hunger in African countries and give a platform to Devi “100% safe” Sridhar (says it all if they’re printing her).? Bally Billy sellouts.
I just checked – 1,432 “covid deaths” (Worldometer) in a country of 13.4 million people. I’d like to know who’s paying their government to do this, what targets they’ve been set. Did someone say these “vaccines” may reduce fertility? A big goal of Bally Billy and his eugenicist mates, to reduce the birth rate in Africa. Genocide or mere eugenics, we really do need that Nuremberg II.
“BA. 2 ‘stealth’ variant”.
I wonder if it will be an excuse for more (or continued) restrictions?
Fed up of the whole deceitful shambles.
“Israel finance minister calls for end of green pass”.
I suppose that country didn’t make “unvaccinated” people wear a yellow badge…
I’m sure no Israeli minister is calling for the end of the widespread use of pass laws against Palestinians.
They had lower “vaccine” uptake didn’t they? Wouldn’t it be ironic et cetera.
Here is a direct link to the Deutsche Welle article about forcible “vaccination” in Rwanda: “Rwanda forcibly vaccinating people against COVID, victims say” This is a straightforward crime against humanity, carried out in the country that saw genocide committed against the Tutsis in the 1990s. Unfortunately DW do not identify the pharmaceutical company that is supplying the “vaccine” that is being used. A man from the Muhanga district, in Rwanda’s Southern Province, told DW that he was handcuffed in order to receive the jab.“Around 4 a.m. our local cell leader kicked in my door,” he said “I thought they were thieves because I was still asleep. There were three people standing at my door, they ordered me to go to the sector offices, and I was handed over to security personnel and I was told that I was going to be vaccinated against my will.” Cells and sectors are administrative entities between villages and districts.The man recalled that he was forced to sit under the scorching sun until the evening when he got vaccinated. According to him, five police officers and six civilians surrounded him and ordered him into a room.“They pounced on me and dragged me on the ground,… Read more »
Come to think of it, I seem to remember a story that there remain unresolved issues and tensions from their civil war (including some doubt about the numbers killed). I wonder if this, or similar issues may be a factor? Would these criminals really abuse their own people like this?
So Germany isn’t forcibly ‘vaccinating’ people? It’s so hard to keep up these days
Hard indeed.
“Totalitarian impulse subverting free societies”.
I said years ago we risked a rerun of the 1930’s. A totally predictable result of our economic and moral collapse and decades of human rights abuses A pity the villains responsible couldn’t commit to making sure the abuses of the 30’s and 40’s could never happen again instead of mocking Mary Whitehouse and trashing the working class who will suffermost from the new terror.
“Woke cut to Dad’s army”.
Looks like that line about “catch a nigger by the toe” has been cut then…
In other “equalities” news, there was a story today on GB news about an Automobile Association spokesman (or should that be spokesperoffspring?) saying that the AA treated lone women who have broken down as the same priority as lone men (though they later backpedalled).
You know, sometimes there is something to be said for treating women differently from men. Whether it’s this, or a coastguard chastised for breaking health and safety rules for rescuing a girl stuck up a cliff, or putting men in women’s prisons, it would be nice if people could use a bit of common sense sometimes. This is what happens though when people are banned from thinking for themselves.
It’s more about breaking the crust of scum that has formed on top of our society and letting the light back in, than hoping for common sense. Perhaps the hell that is coming with regards to covid might help with that.
You know, sometimes there is something to be said for treating women differently from men.
I can think of one reason off the top of my head: the fact that they are different.
As new data from Germany begins to show a clear link between excess mortality and gene therapies, we make sure the list of people in the media who supported the wholesale murder of men women and children is carefully curated. The people in government and health advisory positions who are guilty is obvious. They cannot escape, but the scumbags below might try and run for it. Don’t let them.

I posted this above to the earlier draft of horse’s list, but it seems apt here as well. I’d need more justification before I’d accept Starkey in that category.

I don’t recall now where he was on the “vaccines” later on, and it’s possible he was insufficiently anti them for horse and that’s why he is “on the list”.

I wondered whether Starkey had gone ‘mainstream’ for a while in order to re-ingratiate himself with those who were always inviting him to appear on TV.
When you have a living to reestablish, there’s no point in letting principles get in the way.
Yes.it’s best not to forget as it will happen again unless we remember those who stood against us and promoted the official anrrative.
The only criticism I had of the In House Doctor’s article yesterday was when he used the term “compliant” main stream media.
They have been either grossly incompetent or complicit in the government’s actions against the public of this country.
My take is the latter as no one could surely be that incompetent for so long: a 12 year old with a computer, broadband access and a couple of hours a week could have obtained more information on this madness than seemingly experienced and trained journos.
Never forget.
Never forgive.
Never surrender.
Never give in.

I hope these scumbags are somehow made aware of your list. (I’ve been surprised recently to see how much attention the DS does actually get).
And I hope they’ll start to get a bit nervous.
Britains lowlife media crew. Try to find a copy of Stephen Nolan RadioFive the first responders NHS special he did early on – he should spend time behind bars for his lies, antagonism and misinformation. All funded by the public which is a tragedy in itself
Nolan- land whale who knows what’s best for your health.
We also do not forget HM Queen Elizabeth and her grandson HRH Prince William, both of whom told the British people they had no right to bodily autonomy and they were selfish for not taking endless doses of gene therapy. Between that and the Blair knighthood, one wonders if the Republican Movement is now advising the Royal Family.
I remember the Queen did get involved in politics at one point and feeling surprised about it though I forget what it was exactly now. Did she really say that?
I do wonder how responsible she actually was for the “Sir Anthony” business. Someone said that it wouldn’t have happened if Prince Philip was still alive so perhaps she did have something to do with that? I was a bit shocked by that.
There’s a theory that when she ostentatiously sat alone at Prince Philip’s funeral (while Peking Piffle’s people partied), that was her way of protesting at what was being done to her. I like to think she has her doubts about some of this nonsense. At any rate, many people will not forget that powerful juxtaposition, and maybe it could work to some degree in our favour.
Not the first Sir Anthony that the Queen has found brought her a smattering of public oppribrium. That was Blunt, the Fourth Man in the Cambridge spy ring, who was Master of the Queen’s Paintings while happily aiding and abetting treachery.
Jacinda Ardern is certifiably insane.
What about that Northern territory politician (rounding up “Aborigines” for their own good)? Where do they get these people?
Racism and Paternalism coming together.
The smirk on her face when she announced she was coming for the unvaccinated
And getting a bit long in the tooth.

When the MSM that’s been kissing your arse starts kicking it, comprehensively and in unison, you might be a politician in trouble.
Lockdownunder Update: From Disbelief to Anger.
That Israeli finance minister has gone off the reservation.
I don’t fancy his chances of being around for much longer.
Notice how many MSM newspapers have miraculously had a ‘sudden change of heart’ on the COVID vaccines, mandates and passports amongst the many draconian and anti-democratic/freedom measures to ‘combat’ COVID? Be very vary, given how they were acting just a few weeks or months ago. Even supposed ‘anti-lockdown scpetics’ such as Camilla Tominey at the Telegraph are, in my opinion, just either ‘managed opposition’ to try and keep readers from deserting in droves, or are just changing their views when they see they ‘backed the wrong horse’ in government. With regard to Tominey, I distinctly remember many pro-Establishment viewpoint (and woke) articles from her nearer to the start of the pandemic, but weirdly they, as far as I can tell, don’t appear on her DT page any more (you can go back all thw way to March 2020 and before). I suspect many MSM outlets and ‘journalists’ are now frantically scrubbing their histories in readiness to jump off the sinking ship like a bunch of rats. Anyone who are still subscribers to the DT (the same goes for other papers with similar-minded journos) should remind other current readers (I stopped subbing in mid 2020 in protest at what the paper… Read more »
As far as our change of heart journos in Perth, I suspect a lot of them are as sick and tired of being stuck here as anyone.
The secession movement is sporadic over here but my sense is that it’s been pretty quiet during the last couple of years. There are people who are loving the isolation, but they seem to exist principally in the comments pages of MSM publications. If this has been a sample of what life is like with WA as an independent nation, I don’t think many of us are being won over to the cause.
What about those who haven’t had covid and recovered (or maybe have had the flu or a cold or both but being made of sterner stuff don’t bother to test or isolate and just use lemsip etc.) who decided that none of the vaxxes was necessary for so many reasons that all LS readers can recite in their sleep – isn’t this just as valid a reason?
