Personally I’ve always been a “covid ‘vaccine’ ” realist. Show me the evidence – instead of trying to hide it, as has happened far too often throughout this shambles. It’s no wonder if people are suspicious!
And if the Economist have their way, it looks like people will get pestered to take a ‘flu vaccine they don’t need too. I guarantee you they won’t get pestered to ensure they have sufficient vitamin D (and zinc and magnesium and selenium and vitamin C).
Maybe we should say something about people who are sceptical of taking vitamin D to protect against viruses based on the results of rigged trials?
The UK are already advocating flu jabs for children.

That is basically majority of your life vaxxed against flu.
If the government want to do us a favour, they can remove taxes and restrictions on coal mining, and give their support to fracking. This is now a very serious situation, and they need to take serious action before it is too late. No more red tape nonsense and fantasy politics.
The Government picking winners and losers again – like a gambling addict staking his last penny on a “sure thing” in a desperate attempt to win back previous losses.
One wonders what will happen to all those Filipino wives they’ve been importing…
I tell you, however shrewd their political leaders may be, I will be surprised if they don’t have some serious trouble in the coming years given the situation the country has gotten into.
“A Government-funded project has assessed how legal sex would be abolished in England and Wales and replaced with a single ‘gender’ category”
But I thought humans weren’t hermaphrodites?
Seriously, modern government is like Red Ken’s Greater London Assembly of the 1980’s. On steroids.
You’ve got to hand it to the psychopaths. They mean business!
Can anyone clarify if attacking a restaurant and sending hate messages counts as a “hate crime”, or at least a “non-crime hate incident”?
No it doesn’t. You need a ‘protected characteristic’ first.
“Good morning”!

Sorry, I thought it was about time someone did that! Can I have my downtick now?
(“Mankind” – those were the days…).
I find the name the name Novavax funny. The way it doesn’t roll off the tongue at all, is just so dumb and sounds like a parody of itself.
“What should we call it, this new vaccine.”
”Let’s call it…… Novavax!”
“I love it here’s 15 billion dollars!”
Them “vaxxes” sure mean business. Too bad about the health side…
I think they should have called it ‘Supernovavax’, for the full Babylon Bee effect.
I usually get a pasting and a load of downticks when I post my views on global warming because they run counter to the majority opinion on here.
In one of the discussions in the past week somebody opened up the question of geo-engineering and how that might affect what’s happening in the real world.
So, imagine my surprise when it was reported that the Spanish Meteorological Office had admitted spraying to mitigate global warming (and to contain Covid-19). Unfortunately the only one covering this was Alex Jones of Infowars. Here’s a link to the video in which he discusses it. I’d like to know if the Spanish Met Office press release is genuine.

If geoengineering is going on that wrecks the arguments both of mainstream climate science and those of the sceptics.
Will I now break my previous record of 36 downticks?
Only upticks so far. But it’s early – you’ll get your fair share of abuse in due course.
LOL true that. You can tell from the other comments section when the trolls are having a lie in. They’re yet to rise and crawl out of their lair. I prefer to get my entertainment via Netflix or a good book but there you go. I’m old school, evidently.
Old school and bloomin netflicks – or what ever that Marxist indoctrination outfit calls itself.
Shirley you cannot be serious?
Ooh somebody didn’t out themselves at all with that reaction! But if going around and behaving in a petty fashion, ‘disliking’ comments for the hell of it or because you have some random beef with the poster, floats your boat then keep on sailing, please. Such immature responses just encourage me to post even more. Deal with it!
I have seen a link to the actual website. I have to say it does seem rather fake in this case.
This is where that story is coming from. click the flag for a google translate .

You cna drive holes through all of teh information published in that link. I really do not have enough space here to do that. One big things is dates do not work out therefore the story is muddled. Do some searches for speeches that are quote again makes the information stated unclear.
He is unfortunately wrong in many accounts in this video. Shame he never got his facts correct. Like at 0:41 that is not a press release it is the The BOE
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolet%C3%ADn_Oficial_del_Estado
That Bulletin is not dated 2019, as he said.
It’s good to be open minded, and there’s plenty of evidence most governments (or MODs) have done geoengineering experiments in the past, so no reason they wouldn’t do them in the future.
I’m exteremely wary of the “chemtrails” thing though, I looked at it ~15 yrs ago, the “studies” used to “prove” it were heavily biased, e.g. they all used air samples taken at the coasts to show barium was above normal levels, however any maritime wind will show higher levels from the sea air.
I have no doubt geoengineering can effect local weather, I recall one study where China caused a bunch of severe flooding during their experiments for example, but I seriously doubt it’s a global phenomina, because the record shows severe weather, hurricanes and flooding etc. has generally decreased over the entire record. If geoengineering were a thing on the scales claimed, it would show up in the weather indexes.
‘Do you menstruate?’
Where does that leave pre-pubertal girls, pregnant women, and post-menopausal women?
Well that was my immediate thought too. Didn’t even bother to click. Just sounds like Babylon Bee/fake news bullshittery. Not even going to deign to read such clap trap.
Snap. I thought the same. Also women who have had a hysterectomy.
Perhaps they will have to phrase it ” Have you ever menstruated?”
How about ‘were you born with a uterus’? That should cover all possibilites!

It’s intesting they feel the need to write a peice attempting to dismiss the notion. Not worth reading in full: Usual “in right wing circles” nonsense, they even claim, erronously, that Putin was a YGL – although from what I can gaher he didn’t go through the 5 year program.

Lovely anecdote about the Queen.
