Leicester Lockdown Mystery

Iain Davis

The people of Leicester are confused.

Relieved business owners have been given virtually no notice at all that they need to shut down again, plunging them back into stress and anxiety; sports events that were set to go ahead have been postponed and people who were looking forward to restarting some form of restricted, if highly monitored and controlled, social life have had the chance to meet friends snatched away.

Leicester Council officials all say they understand the need to do this. Yet no one really knows what the reasons are, because none have questioned it. It is lockdown by government decree and nothing more.

Consequently, while the rest of the country is set to further ease lockdown restrictions, the people of Leicester are the first to have a local lockdown. They won’t be the last.

More Cases. So what?

The government state that more people have tested positive in Leicester and they are calling this a “spike” in cases. Even though there own data evidences no such spike. The justification for the lockdown is a complete mystery.

The unquestioning, parrot mainstream media propagandists have reported the numbers without bothering to analyse any of them. The intention is to make sure people remain fearful as instructed by Spi-B, the UK government’s behavioural change guru’s.

The lack of scrutiny of the data is perfectly understandable. It either makes no sense at all or reveals yet more statistical chicanery from the UK government. Something the mainstream media (MSM) clearly aren’t allowed to report.

That’s not a “spike” it’s a consistent ever increasing trend [Phase 2 data from Public Health England]

Speaking on the 29th June, the Health Secretary Matt Hancock told the people of Leicester why they need to be banged up again:

The seven-day infection rate in Leicester is 135 cases per 100,000 people which is three times higher than the next highest city. Leicester accounts for around 10 per cent of all positive cases in the country over the past week. And admissions to hospital are between six and 10 per day rather than around one a day at other Trusts.”

Following discussions with the government, Leicester City Council reported nearly 944 “new cases” in the last couple of weeks and said that 3,216 people had tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 since the start of the outbreak. The BBC reported that 866 of those reported cases occurred in the two week period leading up to the 23rd of June. This represents 4.6% of reported cases (according to official government statistics.)

However, on the 3rd of June, 4 weeks ago, Leicester city council reported 2,226 lab confirmed cases, meaning 990 new cases over the last month. This represents less than 3% of new cases. Still pretty high for just over 0.5% of the British population. Especially when you realise that, thus far, we are talking about a pandemic that has supposedly infected approximately 0.45%, allegedly killing 0.065%, of the populace.

It is not clear how Matt Hancock came up with the 10% figure to rationalise the Leicester lockdown. Given the apparently high case rate in Leicester anyway, this may seem like a pedantic point. However, if the UK’s Health Secretary announces what appears to be an arbitrarily inflated figure to justify the house arrest of hundreds of thousands of British citizens, we need to question that claimed rationale. The MSM won’t.

In truth, the number of positive cases doesn’t mean much. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) influenza causes 3 to 5 million cases of severe illness and, in a bad season can kill up to 650,000 people in a single year. We generally don’t worry too much about this. It’s the flu.

Again, according to the WHO, SARS-CoV-2 has apparently infected just over 10 million people. Up to 80% of these people will be asymptomatic, oblivious that they even have the virus.

The WHO claim that it has killed nearly 510,000 people. Though given that Italy’s National Institute of Health (ISS) found that only 12% of reported COVID 19 deaths were actually attributable to the COVID 19 syndrome, this claim should also be treated with some scepticism.

While flu is an annual occurrence that can kill more people than COVID 19, we are told the only possible solution to COVID 19 is to lock everyone up (now on a sporadic ad-hoc basis in the UK), transform the global economy, wipe out every small to medium size business, destroy high streets, eviscerate the productive economy, enforce the wearing of masks (for no apparent reason) and vaccinate everyone on Earth.

This has never been required for the flu but is vital for COVID 19 because reasons.

The number of new cases has far more to do with the extent of The UK’s testing program than it does with the actual spread of the virus. The virus will do it’s thing regardless of the number of people tested or any government interventions.

Testing simply gives you a glimpse into the overall number of people infected. It doesn’t tell you how many people have been infected, only how many have been tested. So what could possibly account for this alleged spike in SARS-CoV-2 cases in Leicester?

Testing Our Patience

The UK government last updated their Scaling Up Our Testing Program document on April 6th. They split their testing regime into “pillars.” 

Pillar 1 focused upon swab testing (RT-PCR) the most vulnerable, the seriously ill and front line key-workers. Pillar 2 expanded the testing to include essential workers in social care and other sectors, and established wider community testing. In Leicester this took the form of booked appointments at various mobile testing units (MTU’s).

From the outset this data collection was plagued with problems.

For example, people who had taken multiple tests were counted as separate individuals, tests were prematurely counted as complete before the results were available and a positive nose swab and throat swab from one individual could be counted as two confirmed cases. While the data has been used to place the people of Leicester under house arrest, within a couple of days the UK government announced that they had simply wiped off 30,302 reported cases due to methodological errors. They then stated:

Due to this change many cases previously not attributed to any area are now included in area totals. This is not a recent surge in cases – the cases now being reported occurred from April onwards.”

This would seem to directly contradict the reasons they have given for placing Leicester into extended lockdown. The MSM hasn’t bothered to report it.

The ongoing methodological problems had previously resulted in the government suspending all reporting of Pillar 2 test results on the 23rd May. So Boris Johnson’s recent response to Keir Starmer that councils had access to this data requires further explanation before anyone can be dumb enough to believe him.

The chair of the UK Statistics Authority David Norgrove wrote to the Health Secretary on 3rd June. Pointing out that the governments figures were both incomplete and incomprehensible, he suggested that testing should serve two purposes.

Firstly to increase understanding of the scale and characteristics of the pandemic and secondly to inform testing programs to make them a useful early warning tool. He wrote:

The way the data are analysed and presented currently gives them limited value for the first purpose. The aim seems to be to show the largest possible number of tests, even at the expense of understanding. It is also hard to believe the statistics work to support the testing programme itself. The statistics and analysis serve neither purpose well.”

Pillar 2 testing is a public private partnership. Companies like Amazon and Boots Pharmacies, along with universities and research institutes, were invited to participate with the government to roll out testing across the country. Obviously home delivery services and pharmacists have a conflict of financial interest. There is no evidence that the government took account of this.

More testing reveals more tests.

Despite all the problems, frequent retractions and meaningless results, forcing the governments suspension of the reporting of Pillar 2 results, and the widespread criticisms from statisticians and researchers, we are now told that Pillar 2 data is sufficiently reliable to lock up 350,000 people in the Leicester region. Oxford University statistician Jason Oke, speaking of the prerequisites for identifying “spikes” in cases, said:

We can only do that if we have clear data on who’s getting tested and how many people are getting tested, not just total numbers of tests.”

There is no reason to think these problems with Pillar 2 testing have been eliminated. Nor any that it is capable of identifying “spikes” anywhere. This appears to be born out by the Pillar 2 data for Leicester. There is no identifiable spike, just a consistently upwards trend.

The Pillar 2 results are analysed at the so called Lighthouse Labs established in Milton Keynes, Alderley Park (Cheshire), Glasgow and Cambridge. If there is a potential conflict of financial interest in the collection of Pillar 2 data, analysis of submitted tests is more or less defined by it. The Lighthouse public private partnership’s data and resources are provided by Astrazeneca and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK).

Astrazeneca are partnered with Oxford University to develop a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and GSK are partnered in numerous vaccine research projects around the world. Perhaps most notably with the French vaccine giant Sanofi. GSK are the largest vaccine manufacturer in the world and Sanofi are the third. Whether their collaboration will be temporary or more enduring, their collaboration has, temporarily at least, formed a vaccine giant capable of dominating the global market.

With a significant role in producing the Pillar 2 data, neither GSK nor Astrazeneca would be very keen to see the threat of COVID 19 diminish. They have a very clear motivation to potentially make sure that doesn’t happen. Again there is no evidence at all that the UK government has done anything to address this enormous conflict of financial interest at the heart of their Pillar 2 data.

Pillars Of Salt

Leicester’s first Pillar 2 testing centre opened on May 4th, in Birstall Park, and was only for front line and essential key workers. It was reportedly “tightly controlled.”

Leicester based researchers had already noted the unusual early end of the flu season in Leicester. For some reason it concluded in February, making it far more likely that any respiratory illness would be attributed to COVID 19. They noted that the high number of positive test cases in Leicester, and surrounding areas, was primarily a consequence of government testing efforts, not the actual spread of the virus:

“The high positivity rate in our community patients is likely a result of a very targeted local COVID-19 testing program led by the NHS 111 and East Midlands PHE teams, where the COVID-19 case definition became relatively more sensitive and specific outside of our normal seasonal influenza period.”

In the two week period of June 13-16 Leicester City Council announced 80 new positive tests. Not so, say the UK government. There were actually 944. Nearly 12 times more than you thought. You just didn’t count the Pillar 2 figures.

The people of Manchester were similarly misled. They have 6 times as many positive cases as they thought and York has twice the number of people infected. Or so the government claim.

The secret data is no longer a secret. Look! More tests.

While the government were collecting Pillar 2 data they weren’t sharing it with any local authorities. Perhaps this is because the government had to stop sharing it due to its appalling inaccuracy. Maybe there is no internet in Leicester, Manchester, York nor any of the other cities and regions the government can’t communicate with.

While the nation were being told by the government that COVID 19 had eased sufficiently to generally ease the lockdown regime, it seems the politicians knew differently all along. It turns out, despite reducing cases and mortality, it is actually increasing in some places. We know this thanks to the hitherto secret Pillar 2 data from Amazon, Astrazeneca and GlaxoSmithKline.

Now that the government have decided to share the corporate data they effectively sat on for more than two months, we can see that SARS-CoV-2 is still getting worse. More and more people are becoming infected in the UK. It is orders of magnitude worse than we could have ever possibly imagined. Depending where you live. According to the government and their corporate partners.

The government chose not to disclose any of this during the daily COVID19 briefings to the nation, which ended on June 23rd. Why they didn’t mention this far higher infection rate is inexplicable. Now that the daily briefings have ceased, the government have decided it is time mention it.

No, no, no. This is all wrong. Apparently.

The sudden twelve fold increase in new cases compelled Leicester NHS trust, which oversees the running of three hospitals in Leicester, to go into “red alert.” They have reportedly only seen “a slight increase” in cases over recent days. Though the additional 864 cases must surely overrun them soon.

Odd that the surge hasn’t materialised yet. The WHO state that the incubation period between contracting the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the onset of symptoms is between 5-6 days and most of these people were supposedly identified at least two weeks ago. So their absence from hospital merely adds to the mystery.

It is also strange that mortality, allegedly from COVID 19, has been steadily declining in Leicester, just as it has everywhere else in the UK. Local coronavirus data in Leicester is inline with the rest of the country according to local media reports. Fortunately the breakthrough drug Dexamethasone, announced with great fanfare by UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, was first used to treat COVID 19 patients in Leicester, from June 17th onward. Perhaps this accounts for the incongruent figures?

How can infection rates have been continually escalating in Leicester, since the beginning of March, while mortality has peaked and declined? If the government’s Pillar 2 data is credible, then Leicester’s infection rates do not correspond to its mortality rates. They do however correspond precisely with testing rates.

Spot the difference. Leicesters Phase 2 data and the number of tests. Leicester has been incarcerated because the government have done more tests.

Writing anonymously, for good reason, a self proclaimed doctor from University Hospitals Leicester NHS Trust wrote about the situation in Leicester hospitals. With nowhere near as many cases as anticipated, no sign of any notable risk to staff or really anyone under the age of 65, no perceivable health risk to children or essential workers they wrote about the shared sense of anger building within the medical profession in the area. Noting that 95% of the Pillar 2 data related to under 65’s the doctor could identify no rationale for the Leicester lockdown. They concluded:

Local Lockdown in Leicester is purely a tool of control. It’s a threat to make us behave……Be warned. Given our cases have already started falling, they will be able to call this a success in two weeks. By then it might be your turn.”

We are now living in a country where anywhere, any city, county or region, can be locked down because the government simply releases more test data. In and of itself this means absolutely nothing, but the State can claim it means “danger.”

The UK is becoming a federation of city states which the government can shutdown whenever it likes for any reason it chooses. Just as long as you believe their claims.

The only thing Pillar 2 data tells us is that more people have been tested. It tells us virtually nothing at all about the associated health risks. Though more cases, without corresponding mortality, would suggest the virus is even less dangerous than we have been led to believe.

We commonly have trillions of viruses inhabiting our microbiomes. If infection isn’t unusually hazardous to health, infection rate alone doesn’t describe the risk.

There doesn’t appear to be any perceivable public health benefit for the government’s draconian lockdown of the people in Leicester. Quite the opposite. Lockdowns do present a risk to health. So maybe Leicester’s hospitals will see the anticipated surge after all.

However, the disparity may also be evident because the government’s Pillar 2 data is junk. Regardless, whether plausible or not, there is nothing in it to justify the government’s further destruction of Leicester.

Well I asked the author a number of days ago to state what the positive RATE was and how it has varied – not just the total number of positives, which are obviously linked to the total number of tests, hence largely meaningless in informing about the increas/decrease in the epidemic.

Still no answer – anyone else know?

“More testing?”

Did I expect an insightful response to a mention of the rapidly emerging (selected-for?) variant of SARS-CoV-2 that changes an amino acid on the spike protein (though one outwith the RDB)? Thought it could be worth a try to help get the epidemiological miasma permeating the Off-Guardian’s ‘coverage’ of the pandemic cleared a bit, so suggested–in a reply specifically addressing the original question from a different angle, not just a waffle off into the same old same old–that some attention be paid to it, but no, despite the formulation of the above “could be”, I did not.

While I have sympathey for some elements of this article the mask part is not one of them. Surgeons wear masks why? Not to protect themselves but to protect those under the knife. In just the same way wearing a mask helps protect others from you should you carry the virus. Don’t beleive me, check out this choir example (particularly relevant given the comment below) Choirs – a nice example of why masks make sense.

Wrong. Surgeons wear masks primarily to avoid getting direct blood splatter. Secondarily, it’s to stop them from breathing germs into an open wound. But the mask will not stop them from breathing a virus into the wound.

in summary they were anxious about coming down with “the virus”. this lead to adrenal fatigue and triggering of detox symptoms in one of them. the cult started phoning the rest of the choir and terror set in. this led to further adrenal fatigue and triggering of detox symptoms. members were rounded up and tested leading to further terror etc.

Whether a virus can be spread via the mouth or nose has never been demonstrated / proved via the scientific method to this day. This is probably because a virus has never been captured to test. So far in the history of the medical science world “Koch’s Postulates” (which define a virus) have never been fulfilled to prove the existence of a “virus”. Of course if this true then the test they are using is fake and so the vaccine will be fake as well…..

there is no seasonal flu spread by a flu virus or any deaths caused by an alleged flu virus. there is natural detox that is wrongly represented as a disease and treated with antibiotics. this then interferes with detox leading to more severe toxicity treated inappropriately leading to death.

Here in Northern California news today indicates renewed lockdown coming right away. This along with continued MSM type coverage that is presumptive, speculative, alarmist. So many new cases! None of these are defined in terms of how many are asymptomatic, how many mild, how many life-threatening. It’s all cases cases cases with no further definition, as I have continually reported here. The positive results = 3% of those tested; negative 97%. For this the governor is ready to resume lockdown.   A favorite cafe told me today that with lockdown revenues decline 75% re reduction to take-out. Loans to be paid off are on hold for the moment only. At this same cafe a sign on the door says masks required on entering; a moment later it’s okay for masks off when in a booth.

Hey Aldous,
 
take heart. I’ve been down my local(that’s a pub) a couple of times since their lockdown was eased. Although a shadow of their former selves, nevertheless more than a few punters are either sceptical of the coroney baloney or open to information. I’ve simply given them a few sites to look at i.e. this one Off G, UKColumn, Swiss propaganda research and Corbett report. I don’t especially wax forth, reasoning that people respond better if simply given their own choice. I know for sure that such sites saved my sanity, if nothing else.
The Serbian mutiny has appeared on the Sky News, at least. Again the most receptive are the regular folks rather than certificated academics. Some hope is better than no hope. I’m trying to keep my flickering flame alive, hope you can too.

I could tell you a long story about me and the city of Leicester (pronounced lester for our friends in other parts of the world) but I won’t bore you with all that now.   Leicester got hit in the Blitz in 1940, although nowhere near as bad as nearby Coventry and Birmingham. Nevertheless, things were very tough. Now they are all bowing down to this covid 19 bullshit and the ‘second wave’.   What is the matter with people?!   Another quick one about the Blitz in 1940: my father, as a newborn baby, was in his pram on a London street; this after a heavy overnight raid by German bombers (which killed huge numbers of people). With dawn came the Stukas, and one of them started machine-gunning the street my father was in (there was no sign of the RAF). My auntie Kath, who was then about 8… Read more »

True story. I was born in Sheffield, 12 years after the war ended. The local, very large park – Graves Park – given to the people of Sheffield by a local wealthy businessman had about 4 different entrance gates on it’s circumference. Tall stone pillars, high double gates. The gates were closed and locked each night at dusk. However, all the railings had been cut from the low walls surrounding the park. Locked gates didn’t stop us entering – it was a 24 hour park as far as we were concerned.   Note I said the park was gifted to the people of Sheffield. Some years ago Sheffield City Council tried to sell off part of the park to a builder for housing. The people were horrified, they knew this was just the start. The people fought and SCC had to back off. I can’t remember the full details as… Read more »

Snap, Rob! In 1940, my mam was a midwife, working in Southampton dockland. I – at a few weeks of age – was in my cot in the back of her – midwife’s necessary – car. We were dive-bombed by a machine-gunning stuka too, Mam whipped the car round a corner, tipping the cot over on top of me. Sure I was dead, because I made no crying, she lifted off the cot with trembling hands. And there I was, smiling and unscathed. So she described it all. 🙂   In those days too there was a lot of contention between draconian government and mutinous plebs. Playwright Howard Brenton, my age and also with S’hampton connections, speaks of large refugee-style trekkings of the local people to camp out on the Downs north of the town, because of dissent from what they were being ordered to do under the bombing.

Laugh, Rob? I concur completely! In the words of the perceptive – and very well directly-experienced – physicist, mathematician and mystic Tom Campbell, our existence has an inherent real purpose, which can be summed up as lowering entropy and growing towards love. A permanently-evolving, never-ending purpose, in the life-after-life of our immortal souls: the central essence of who we really are. 🙂

Aren’t textile workers like miners, in that they have a high level of congestive lung disease? Are textile workers famillys entitled to a government pay out, if they succomb to this industrial, work related disease? If so, and they die the “natural” covid death, which is the Only death these days , these famillys have lost their payout….And the British government is laughing all the way, to the bank!

There’s a big difference between different textile jobs.
 
These women in Leicester are basically working with finished cloth and I think they call the job seamstress. It’s highly repetitive, paid per piece produced, but generally safe except for long hours and the odd occasion they might sew their finger to the dress or whatever they’re sewing.
 
My relative worked in the textile mills of Yorkshire actually producing that cloth. Different game altogether. Lots of chemicals, machines, fibres in the air, and losing your digits in the machines if you lose concentration.
 
Not nice. Still, that hard work didn’t seem to do him any harm, he lived until 95 as fit as fiddle until something finally broke due natural ageing.

I really liked Leicester, and got there early for a meeting about 20 years ago.

Unless the extremely well sound insulated music pubs in London, where we walk to or travel on a London Bus, allow Muscians to Play Inside the pub – (everyone of course self isolating and wearing maybe paint on face masks), then all the music pubs in London are going to go bust.

I have already started brewing my own beer, and bought a new guitar and an African Drum, and my friends have already said they want to come round.

Maybe start on Accoustic ..before The AMPS and Large Loudspeakers

Haven’t warned the neighbours, yet, but they have heard it before, and some of them are musicians, and have already been round.

Everything you say, Hope, rings so true. I think the aim is to wear us all down drip by drip to the point that we are just not psychologically geared to rebel, and every little ‘relaxation’ is seen as a treat to be celebrated and grateful for.   For example, here in England, they imposed a local lockdown in Leicester (to test the waters?) and it is ‘coincidentally’ followed by the so-called easing of measures in the hospitality industry elsewhere in England to the point that the people of Leicester are abandoned by the rest of the country to complain on their own about the local lockdown.   Everyone else is ‘celebrating’ the reopening of pubs, restaurants etc without even confronting the reality of the ridiculous and unsustainable social distancing measures. It’s only a matter of time before more local lockdowns follow, based on increased testing (proving nothing) ‘finding’ positive… Read more »

That would be correct for tests but the so called “CV19 tests” are not tests with no proven isolation of intact, complete viral material how would a test formulation be remotely possible. I have reviewed several so called gold standard claims of isolation and there is no conformity to anythng resembling Koch’s postulates.

I didn’t go to the doctor, just bought some ear drops from the supermarket – hydrogen peroxide and urea, and it soon cleared up.   However, I was exceedingly worried then, and still am now, for the simple reason, that if there is no real pandemic, no increase in death rates, beyond a normal flu, then there is something far more serious going on, and it is on… Read more »

Confirmed to me that it was another project when Tom Hanks announced that he tested positive and he was self isolating. Then other celebrities and politicians chimed in with their positive status and their compliance to the decrees.
Everyone knows who Tom Hanks is, no one around here knows personally of anyone who has the current virus. They know the virus exists only because Tom Hanks, an actor who portrays fictional characters in staged movies, says that he has the virus.
Or they saw a post on social media that someone’s relative died of it. Has to be true, it was posted on Twitter/Facebook, etc.

There are statistics in it which I am sure certain commentators on here will wish to tear apart but it seems to me that the fundamental essence of the reported research makes a lot of sense…and will not therefore ever be reported by the BBC!   In summary, researchers have now suggested that one reason for so many deaths this year is that we have had very mild flu seasons for the past two years. The result is that a high number of vulnerable people who might otherwise have died if they had contracted flu during the past two years didn’t die. With the arrival of a virus with the characteristics of a severe flu all those mortalities waiting to happen have been triggered in one season.   If you take the Covid19 deaths this year, consolidate them… Read more »

Its quite clear that its only a matter of time now before they introduce the compulsory masks the govt and msm is itching to bring in.
 
The agenda appears to be twofold in objective which is clearly to supplement the ongoing attack on small and medium sized business. There can be no other reasonable explanation for the introduction of compulsory face masks some 5 months after the ‘virus’ peak and 4 months after lockdown.
 
The second part is to be able to keep this narrative alive until after the end of summer some 6-8 weeks hence.
 
This sets things up nicely for the autumnal second wave and a second lockdown with a final push then into totalitarianism.

The introduction of compulsory face masks is all about bunging their friends tens of millions in risk-free profiteering.
 
It should be made quite clear that no private entity can profit from compulsory products, since the whole point of private enterprise is to operate in free markets where the consumer has absolute discretion to not participate in the market.
 
When the market is forced, then the sellers are in clover.
 
Boris Johnson has announced he is a reverse socialist, giving out handouts to his rich friends and forcing the poor to buy masks they do not need.

If you want to distinguish between the healthy and the sick, you define disease precisely.

Reminds me of when my G.P. said I was ‘non compliant’. The reason, I had been sent one of those kits to test for bowel cancer, sent to the over 60’s. I had not requested the kit, it just arrived. At the time I was too ill to deal with the effort of catching my poop onto a stick, and putting it in the mail to the return address. Time moved on and I forgot. The testing place must have informed my G.P. because months later, when I visited him for something unrelated, he interrupted me and told me off for my ‘non compliance’.

In 1993, Sobran was fired from National Review for a series of columns that the then-publisher William F. Buckley Jr., considered “contextually anti-Semitic”.[4]

Norman Podhoretz wrote that “Joe Sobran’s columns […] [are] anti-Semitic in themselves, and not merely ‘contextually'” and Buckley disagreed with Podhoretz’s accusation, instead “deem[ing] Joe Sobran’s six columns contextually anti-Semitic. By this I mean that if he had been talking, let us say, about the lobbying interests of the Arabs or of the Chinese, he would not have raised eyebrows as an anti-Arab or an anti-Chinese”.[5]

looks a bit more convincing than the pcr test. i suppose if your wearing one you have to breath deeper to push the co2 out. in china they have been wearing them for years so ironically the masks could have been a contributing factor to the beginning of the covid atrocity. maybe it would be safer to smoke. i was thinking how smoking was a symbol of freedom afthe war so maybe it had something to do with all the spanish flu masks and quarantines? apparently the brits had contingencies to supply tobacco even in the event of nazi invasion. everyone smoked back then. some smokers have probably quit cutting down since this covid shit. it would be interesting data. alchohol has probably gone thru the roof despite pubs being closed.

A book written in 1885 on the subject of vaccination centered largely on the Leicester vaccine refusals. The book is called ‘The Story of a Great Delusion’ by William White and can be found in its entirety online at archive.org . An extract: “Mr. H. D. Dudgeon has been described as a veritable and venerable apostle of health. With a consummate knowledge of hygiene, and a profound faith in its power to overcome zymotic disease, he has set forth its principles with such lucidity and persistency that he has gone far to educate Leicester in setting at naught the vaccine superstition. To the standard assertion of the vaccinators, that sanitation is good against all febrile affections, except smallpox, for which there is no pre-ventive save vaccination”   Medical technology company Becton Dickinson and Co said it received an order from the UK government for 65 million injection devices to support… Read more »

PCR CAN be used to diagnose the presence of a specific nucleic acid sequence, be that DNA or RNA. You can only prove that the sequence detected is actually what you believe it to be by sequencing the DNA product you have amplified. This is never done in mass testing, but the assumption is that there are no other nucleic acid sequences which carry the two same oligonucleotide sequences at the same distance apart in your body.   The question with Covid testing is whether the PCR reaction can also detect related Coronaviruses which are not SARS-CoV2.   The thing with PCR and RT PCR is that quantitative measurements are quite tricky, certainly not reliable in mass testing where speed is of the essence. It therefore does not tell you much about viral load and tests to do that using PCR would be much, much more expensive, more time consuming… Read more »

Kudos to Waykiwayki on YT for uncovering this one, this is a huge story which has not had the attention it deserves.
The President of Burundi in Africa expelled reps/criminals from the WHO, preventing them from carrying out their nefarious covid1984 operations and spreading their evil, then lo and behold, suddenly drops dead of a heart attack at the age of 55. He was super healthy. Then, as if that wasn’t enough, the scum at the Guardian reported it as a Coronavirus death. You can’t make this shit up.

This is a similar debate to the one the other day about the ‘second wave’. As with ‘fears’ of a second wave, a local lockdown is most likely window-dressing to try to make the rest of the narrative – ie that this is a public health crisis that won’t suddenly go away – seem more plausible. Why Leicester? Firstly, it isn’t a place vital to the economic life of the nation, as London is, so does not hamper the overall PR of ‘beating’ the coronavirus and the lifting of the lockdown. Plus it’s a kind of threat to the rest of the public – be good or we’ll lock you up again. Somewhere had to be chosen to be on the naughty step. Oh, and there are a lot of Muslims living there, so the lockdown will bring out the racists, who will blame Muslims rather than the government. (See… Read more »

You make a good point about what appears to be Big Pharma’s influence on the UK’s decision not to fall in line with the EU’s likely vaccine schedule. The desire to potentially roll out genetic engineering (in the form of GSK’s proposed RNA vaccine) is, I suggest, a far more likely reason than any claimed Brexit ideology.

Could you please cite anything I have ever written which claims the virus isn’t real. I remain interested in the fact that Koch’s postulates have not been met and that claimed isolation of the virus is woolly, to say the least, but at no stage have I ever been sufficiently convinced to suggest that the virus doesn’t exist.

Also, would you like to explain how you construe, from anything I have written, that the excess deaths prove that lockdowns work?

Iain, 1. No vaccine will/should be ‘rolled out’ this year or even next. I personally will not take it and will be urging everyone else not to either. I also doubt the EU would rush one out without full diligence. Hence the reason why the U.K. won’t join in with the EU because that would kibosh their cunning whizz to make zillions from fake medicines. Vaccines/ medications which have NOT undergone full trials and safety/efficacy would be nothing more than a placebo at best – deadly snake oil at worst. The companies you have mentioned were linked months ago and ANY treatments emerging from them were supposedly ‘pre ordered’ by the US, as I recall. Hence we in the U.K. wouldn’t be getting the poison – unless of course, Bozo and this BrexShit heads band – do a quick and dirty trade deal with the US that allows them to… Read more »

We now know that whatever they are testing for has been in circulation for at least a year thanks to the University of Barcelona and other institutions. We also know that whatever they are testing for is a fraud anyway, as shown by the testimony of the President of Tanzania.

It is part of a full spectrum agenda around the coup this country was subjected to in December last year and geopolitical games we have been subjected to since the 70’s.

BrexShit is not a marginal issue – as the MSM and alt media seems to have decided to make it. The negotiations and issues have not had ANY significant reporting. In an effort to hide the great conspiracy.

Those awake in Melbourne are also confused Iain. When you have a blitzkrieg of tests being done every single day, of course there’s going to be a spike in positive cases. We all know just how reliable the tests really are. Ask the President of Tanzania for a start.
Police along with 264 Army personnel have set up checkpoints and roadblocks all around the outskirts of Melbourne as well as on major roads in some suburbs.
Anyone caught flouting lockdown directives will be fined $1652. For Businesses, it’s a $9913 fine. Cars at checkpoints are being stopped at random and you must provide proof of id and your address. The cops are using liscense plate recognition technology to detect people outside their home suburbs.

It was an uncanny choice of reading in this time of hard borders, compulsory quarantine with police supervision, and now sudden lockdowns.

Our wonderful governor here in California has already reached this point. People are told they should wear masks whenever in public. Stores already bear “masks required.” Even at the transfer station (dump) you’ll see a large sign: “masks required on the ramp.” It interests me how many people here are ignoring or subverting “the rules.” One way aisles just don’t work well; masks are slipping below noses; comments on how much they are hated are increasing; in restaurants people enter without masks (though on entering according to sign on door they are required; but not in a booth); same in gas stations, plus clerks behind the counter sometimes wear them, sometimes not. In short, there’s a whole hell of a lot of policing needed to get people strictly in line (and that is not evident here–the strict policing I mean), and meanwhile the fed-up-with-it meter registers higher fuck-you type sentiments.… Read more »

I also read Amando Lucus Correa..The German Girl and The Daughter’s Tale in a similar genre of Nazi occupation of France with roundups of dissenters such as Jewish, communist, gypsies, or intellectuals etc.

Where the Saint-Malo story was fiction Correa wrote from history.

What I felt mostly was a kind of kindred sympathy that it could be me with my dissenting views…a knock on the door and police checking to see whether I am conforming to the rules of quarantine…as happens all around me today.

Would I be taken away and shot? Just like they were in 1944?

You’ve probably seen the protests in Serbia yesterday, and you’d know of the Gilets Jaunes in France, and protests in The Netherlands and Bulgaria where people actually have a backbone and balls and are pushing back quite strongly.
That absolutely does not apply at all to the large majority of Australians. Not even a smidgen. Not even a fraction of a percentage.
There will be no serious protests here because the large majority are fully supporting the fascism being implemented.
They are on their knees literally begging to be enslaved.
You’re right John, I agree with you. And yes, there are Facebook groups here of people opposed to what is happening, but in all the groups combined, about 25000 members across the country.
And yet for the Black Lives Matter protests, they had tens of thousands marching in each city. How Ironic.

Unfortunately, you are correct in your assessment of the Aussie relationship between its pollies (emphasis on the second syllable) and their flock. I remember Anna Bligh, the scum-bucket who followed Beatty as QLD premier, promising the voters of the Gold Coast a new footie stadium if they got behind her in the state elections.
 
The gullible fools did exactly that (thus proving forever their unsuitability to hold a vote). Their “new” stadium turned out to be a mildly revamped, existing Carrara Stadium.
 
The same kowtowing is on display with this ConOfA Virus. Scummo et al are taking the buck and taking the piss.
 
As I say, the only difference between a pollie and a flying pig is the letter ‘f’.

And this, Gezzah, adding to your comment:   The Mickey Mouse test kits being sent out to hospitals, at best, tell analysts you have some viral DNA in your cells. Which most of us do, most of the time. It may tell you the viral sequence is related to a specific type of virus – say the huge family of coronavirus.   But that’s all. The idea these kits can isolate a specific virus like COVID-19 is nonsense. And that’s not even getting into the other issue – viral load.   If you remember the PCR works by amplifying minute amounts of DNA. It therefore is useless at telling you how much virus you may have. And that’s the only question that really matters when it comes to diagnosing illness. Everyone will have a few virus kicking round in their system at any time, and most will not cause illness… Read more »

Dr. Kary Mullis was the American biochemist who won the Nobel prize for his work in that field. He invented the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique that the UK authorities are using to justify this multi-billion pound vaccine plan. He died on the 7th August 2019.

The reason is because a*b divided by the square root of 6 and that further divided by 1/1000 which is then multiplied by 6000 and added another 429 minus the constant C, justifies a lockdown and shows that we are really facing something quite similar to the plague which can only be dealt with by locking down places that are (typically) of lower socioeconomic class. This is what Covid19 science is all about and if you can’t understand that, than you are just too stupid. Which is okay, since Covid19 science is one of the most difficult sciences ever made as it is somehow able to make bogus into reality (similar as to alchemy where they could make gold out of lead) So if you could just shut up and obey, don’t think, put on your mask, continue to self isolate and show that you are a brave citizen doing… Read more »

And I can tell you they were scared, they had scared themselves immensely.

I completely agree with you Wilhelm. In fact a book of mine will be published this September, which explains how and why science became transformed into scientism, and the situation in our times, and discusses ways so once again true science is re-established in its proper place. Indeed the transformation
is connected to industrialization and the changeover of capitalism from a merchant/land based one to financial capitalism, but the roots of this transformation (or rather distortion) go much further back.

the research on the flu injections is that they provide no protection. any studies suggesting otherwise are in the realm of differences in the groups. the people labeled as dieing from flu often have had the injections aswell as antibiotics for previous cases. nobdy actually dies from the flu but as a result of these inappropriate treatments. it is a detox that gets severe due to the failure to have cleansed properly and learnt during previous colds and flus. this is due to the allopaths spooky concept that it is an infectious disease rather accumulated meat and cheese damaging the kidneys and acidifying the body.

Meat and cheese does not damage the kidneys, how do you suppose humans have managed to survive for so long? What on earth do you think ‘acidifying the body’ actually means’? Nix.

Weston.com comes to mind as a point of reference also, but haven’t got the full link at hand.

Interesting news in resistance to lockdowns:
 
the situation NOT getting worse, and,
 
instead, progressing favourably
 
in Serbia :
 
1, anti-lockdown protests continued for a third night
 
After “Serbian authorities on Thursday banned gatherings of more than 10 people in the capital, Belgrade” https://apnews.com/a90b652fb456adf30639d8d2e56576bf
 
and
 
2. The previous nights’ false-flag hooliganism and police violence were NOT repeated.
 
That change is widely ascribed to change of tactics : large part of protesters choosing to sit on the ground
 
Photos and coverage in an establishment paper: http://www.politika.rs/scc/clanak/458057/Pred-Skupstinom-gradani-uz-poruku-Ne-nasedaj-sedi . The text presents the event as if the people did not have a clue what they’re protesting about.
 
Numbers: reportedly, tens of thousands.

They actually knew that the monarchy had the power to apply great cruelty to them – and quite legally too – but today most people are comfortably enough off to be in denial about the fact that they are actively despised and are being deliberately exploited by our modern politicians, just as they were in those days. The good news is that great numbers of us still don’t automatically believe something just because Boris Johnson has said it.

In the beginning TV was a luxury item that provided entertainment.
Then it’s benefits of pleasure on tap became an alluring time-waster and a means of relaxing.
It was all too soon found to occupy preschool children for hours, quietly and effectively dumbing their developing human mind as a prerequisite for the prescribed sheeple education syllabus.
The education that taught children to follow the leader, not make waves and to go with the flow.
Only lucky children learnt to use their own minds.
They escaped the sheep pen for the excitement of discovery, who did not need to be entertained and did not seek recognition for their achievements.

Not even after you’ve been injected with AstraZeneca and GlaxoSmithKline’s poisons just so you can have that damned “holiday” in the sun. This is 9/11 on steroids.

I knew we were fucked when the public actually witnessed the world’s largest steel-framed buildings collapse in their own footprints at the speed of gravity due to a fire and ate it up with a serving spoon. With this Coroni Baloney. they can basically make up shit as they see fit…much worse. The future looks grim.

why go to all the trouble of actually burning down the Reichstag, when you can just announce on TV that it happened, and denounce anybody who points out that it’s still there, as a “conspiracy theorist”?
 
once you’ve induced everybody (or everybody who matters) to abandon actually existing reality in favour of a delusional fantasy world, the dungeon master can make anything at all happen, just by saying so.
 
welcome to the desert of the real.

Give it ten years, and you’d probably be right.
Still, there are a lot of people who don’t trust a thing they read in the papers or see on TV, but have learned how to pretend in polite company… There comes a point, however, at least in those who could be called human, where their conscience gets worn out by the disconnect, and eventually they seek out the intellectual peace to be found in places where rational thought still means something.
We have found this place, for example. But people have discovered other places too.

A tangled web they try to weave which will entrap us all. Excellent article and rightly underlining the fact that Leicester will become the norm to spread the fear of “cases”. Hopefully there’s a special place in hell reserved for these political criminals . Here is a man speaking truth…

There’s really no mystery. The elites don’t care about you or your family. They don’t care about simple human pleasures as the rest of us do. The elites’ goal is to consolidate wealth, control the population, and depopulate the planet. There are no paternalistic actions taken by the scum running the planet at this moment. Let this sink in: They don’t give a fuck about you in the slightest and some would like to see you suffer. The elites hate humanity. If only a small percentage of the planet really grasped this glaring reality they would be in trouble. As it stands, their agenda is moving forward ahead of schedule.
