“David Starkey condemns Prince Harry as a ‘traitor’”
What oratory from Starkey. Absolutely 100%..
OMG that summary of Harry was everything! LOL Starkey nails it with 100% accuracy and in a very entertaining and eloquent manner. Epic.
Yes but never forget that Starkey in his usual aggressive language condemned all of us who refused the jabs
Yes. That said, if we want liberty and plurality of opinion, we can’t demand ideological purity: that’s the wicked way of the left. It’s possible to be allies on one matter and opponents on another. Indeed, its essential for a free society.
Harry is serving his country. His activities give the media distracting celebrity fluff headlines so they do not need to give any or greater coverage to important topics such as excess deaths, vaccine injuries, UK foreign policy etc. It’s disappointing that GB News dedicate so much space to irrelevant Royal stories.
The Competition and Markets Authority want 10% work time spent on “an inclusive culture” so staff can “bring their whole selves to work”, reports the Telegraph.
What a peculiar mantra (although I’ve seen it said many times). I want my staff to bring with them a good attitude towards performing the tasks of the day. I don’t and I shouldn’t care who they are outside of work. Its none of my business. If I’m getting 100% or 50% of them as people, its fine as long as I’m getting the bit I want.
Can I also just tag on something else. ‘Team building’, is an utter waste of time and money, and is often counter-productive, I have no idea why employers want us to be friends out of work too, but it doesn’t work. You can have satisfactory working relationship with Doris from Accounts because she does her job and you do yours. However when you are neck deep in cold water, because Doris can’t tie a knot, then you are enemies for life.
More white, entitled, attention-seeking cult members broadcasting how mentally unhinged they are at the rugby. The reaction from the crowd says it all. At least streakers or the odd animal invading the pitch and stopping play used to be funny. These people are certifiable and should be given a criminal record.
They targeted the wrong audience not as meek or scared of physical contact as snooker fans & players. Crowd threw beer over the idiots as they were removed.
”Act like you’ve got it.” Remember when from early on Covid wasn’t considered a High Consequence Infectious Disease ( HCID ) but people had to go around pretending that they and everyone else had the equivalent of asymptomatic Ebola?
”As of 19 March 2020, COVID-19 is no longer considered to be a high consequence
infectious disease (HCID).
The 4 nations public health HCID group made an interim recommendation in January
2020 to classify COVID-19 as an HCID. This precautionary recommendation was
based on consideration of the UK HCID criteria about the virus and the disease,
using information available during the early stages of the outbreak. When more was
known about COVID-19, representatives from the four UK public health bodies
reviewed the updated information about COVID-19 against the UK HCID criteria and
determined that some features had changed since the meeting in January 2020. In
particular, by the time of the March 2020 review, more information had emerged
about population-level mortality rates, which were low overall, as well as an increase
in clinical awareness of COVID-19, and the availability of a specific and sensitive
laboratory test for COVID-19, access to which had increased over time. Thus, while
some criteria continued to apply at the time of the review (“acute infectious disease”;
“may not have effective prophylaxis or treatment”; “ability to spread in the community
and within healthcare settings”), the group was satisfied that knowledge gaps no
longer existed for two criteria (“typically has a high fatality rate”; “often difficult to
recognise and detect rapidly”), compared to when HCID status was considered in
January 2020.”

I think it was downgraded from a HCID in order to reduce their own legal exposure, because the obligations related to managing and controlling a HCID are greater and more specific. For example, the ability to treat “infected” people in general hospitals and release patients to care homes etc may well be much more constrained for an HCID.
I believe the C1984 was downgraded for very particular reasons:
1. If a disease is designated HCID then ALL available prophylactics have to be made available so the banning of Ivermectin and Hydroxichloroquine would not have been permitted.
2. The fiction of HCID was always going to be difficult to maintain when the authorities knew that mortality figures would not match such a definition.
“His Majesty’s Government is not going to investigate excess deaths”
I see Neil O’ Brien has been made Parliamentary Under Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) as a reward for being a complete dick during “Covid”.
Maybe Chas could call for one ?? Oh hang on … Klaus says f- ck dat !! 😬
The refusal if HMG to investigate excess deaths has to be seen fir what it is – a criminal act.
“‘Useless’ watchdog tells staff to focus on diversity”
“Staff can bring their whole selves to work”
I would like to bring my whole fist into whole contact with their whole noses the fecking idiots!
Pretty soon, they will just all be working from home where they will be in total self-absorbed thinking of how inclusive they are, funded, of course, by us. All 900 of them. Remind me why we pay their wages…
Fist & Hole in the same sentence these days ! 😵💫😬😂
I’m doing a Mogs! Great piece by Jeff Childers on substack – how to avoid mentioning the spike protein as a possible cause of the explosion in cancers. https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/holopharmakon-saturday-may-27-2023 Two standouts: ….covid-19’s “proteins” don’t just have ONE pro-cancer pathway, which would have been remarkable, but there are at least THREE. In other words, covid’s mystery “protein” is a witches’ brew of features found in other oncogenic viruses…. Whoever designed the virus — nature, Chinese bioweapons engineers, or Fauci and that guy from North Carolina — TRIPLED the ways that covid could encourage cancer cells to grow and flourish in the body….Three different oncogenic pathways, three pathways that had each appeared before in other malign viruses like HIV and Hepatitis, and so were handily available to genetic engineers, if they’d wanted them, that is. and: But the giveaway is that the Biochimie study never once mentioned the spike protein, instead generically referring to “covid proteins.” Why obscure the role of spike? It’s literally unbelievable that a highly-accurate, peer-reviewed article like this one, which goes into mind-numbing detail about all the specific genes and microscopic components of the oncogenic EFFECTS of the covid proteins, never actually gets around to any particular specificity about… Read more »
If Emily Morgan died as a result of a COVID ‘vaccine’ induced ‘turbo cancer’, it might spook some of her colleagues in the MSM to start belatedly doing their jobs.
The journos may be spooked into doing their jobs but the editors who gatekeep the content won’t be spooked into allowing the content to be published.
Yes, I think you’re right. They might need to leave their current employers. Did you see the testimony Marianne Klowak gave to the National Citizens Covid Inquiry in Canada? She referred to an anonymous group of people within the Canada Broadcasting Corporation who vetted one of her stories about the vaccine injured. It felt to me as though Big Pharma or Public Health officials had been embedded in the organisation.
The MSM is fully under the control of the cabal. Anything which is ‘revealed’ in the MSM is what has been given the green light to be revealed. It’s how they are maintaining control of the narrative, appearing to concede but in reality just serving as a distraction for divide & conquer tactics whilst the real agenda implementation continues under the radar.
LOL 🙂 Hey have I gotten that predictable with my signature posts?? 😉 Well you may have noticed I’m sharing less from Substack Land nowadays because I’m paying more attention to Twitter. I was finding that the people I’d usually check out on substack weren’t updating very often or there seems to be more articles behind pay walls. I’ve honestly got no idea why people such as successful doctors, authors, scientists and lawyers would put some of their content behind a pay wall. I mean, it surely can’t be for monetary gain can it? So I find it really off-putting and a bit cheeky, especially as what they’re sharing isn’t exclusive and the same info can be found for free elsewhere. I’d understand if that was your main source of income but that can’t be said for the likes of Childers, McCullough, Leake or Malone.
Just like ESG scores..the ‘gay/trans/woke’ thing isn’t by chance….

Why is everything gay?
Buckle up, we’re going down this gay rabbit hole.
The CEI— Corporate Equality Index— is a woke credit score, that judges companies based on how many woke issues they are pushing.
1. What is “woke”?
A word co-oped from the black community by gender activists that was infected with Neo Marxism.
2. Who made up & gives the score?
From my understanding, The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), sends lobbyists to companies and gives them a list of demands, and if they don’t comply with these demands, the woke investors put pressure on the boards, activists are mobilized, advertising campaigns are shut down, and anyone who continues to do business with the poorly scored company, will also be penalized.
3. And who is funding the HRC?
Open Society Foundation.
4. Who runs Open Society Foundation?
Uh oh. Definitely don’t google that.
Essentially, if you don’t get a good score the Lizard God-King of the world doesn’t let your business exist.
This fake score is everywhere and is controlling everyone and everything with threats and coercion
This despotic rot is the result of a compromised country.
Absolutely worth a read….Augusto Zimmermann is head of law at Sheridan Institute of Higher Education, in Perth, Western Australia…
Gabriël A. Moens AM is an emeritus professor of law at the University of Queensland.

In an ideal world Farage would be PM , & his advisors would be the likes of David Starkey ,Neil Oliver, Mark Steyn , Andrew Bridgen , etc
not Starkey as commented earlier he would have been happy to have us all compulsorily jabbed
Would he 🤦🏼♂️ Soz ! He is slowly redeeming himself though 👍✅
Farage was a bit weak on lockdowns etc IIRC.
Bridgen encouraged his constituents to get jabbed.
I think it’s fair to say, he wouldn’t now.
Another potential detonator of the time bomb in the ‘vaccinated’ has accidentally been discovered: DNA in the vials.Tick, tock, tick, tock….

Thanks for the share. We’ve known about McKernon’s discovery for some time now but it seems Prof Didier Raoult has also found DNA contamination. There’s an English translation in the comments but perhaps someone here who speaks French can verify what he’s saying in the clip;
