Money talks truth among the lies

Posted on 24/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

You may have heard the story about insurers in one US state finding a 40% increase in young adult deaths for 2021, when vaccines were introduced (as opposed to 2020, when COVID was at its peak). A regular reader has pointed me to this remarkable article.

Sounds like “shibboleth” to me

Posted on 23/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

You’ll remember (won’t you?) that the original concept of a “shibboleth” was in Judges 12, where in an Israelite inter-tribal conflict, Gileadites asked a test question to catch out enemy Ephraimites. Evidently the latter had no “sh” sound in their Hebrew, and so were discovered by saying “sibboleth” instead of “shibboleth.”

Silence on Canada speaks volumes

Posted on 18/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

The headline in the Babylon Bee says it all: “Trudeau Demands Protesters Stop Shutting Down City So That He Can Shut Down City.”

Economic (and social) collapse on the ground

Posted on 16/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

Maybe each of us knows one or two people suffering COVID vaccine damage. It’s only when those sufferers are grouped together, for some reason, that one realises the scale of the problem. A YouTuber (now an ex-YouTuber, like so many other cancellations in these fascist times) who usually does shock-jock treatment of current affairs, uncharacteristically did a very quiet and sober piece because two young, professional friends had reported severe anxiety states in the wake of the Covid restrictions, acute enough that they had had to abandon their cars because they could not drive. He asked others to share similar experiences.

The 200m Law

Posted on 12/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

To celebrate my Psalm 90:10 birthday, we took a trip out yesterday in the winter sunshine and crisp air to Burton Bradstock, effectively the starting point of the forty miles of Chesil Beach.

Potiphar’s Pfizer prognostications perused

Posted on 04/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

One of the many reasons for blogging so frequently on the state of COVID over the last two years was as a kind of diary of my reactions to the lies being spouted by official sources, so that I could say “I told you so” as and when I was proven right. Obviously that’s a risky strategy if the official sources should turn out to be right.

Hard cheese for ptarmigan

Posted on 01/02/2022 by Jon Garvey

What hope for the ptarmigan’s future? I doubt most of you have ever asked that question. But as I belatedly watched Winterwatch yesterday, the ever-pessimistic Chris Packham bemoaned their decline in numbers and warned of their imminent extinction, of course due to climate change.

Local adverse vaccine reactions

Posted on 31/01/2022 by Jon Garvey

My son planned his wedding over a year ago, reasoning that COVID restrictions would be long-forgotten by then. The mask mandate, in the event was over – with just three days to spare. At least in England, barring the NHS vaccine mandate, which was only cancelled today. Time flies when you’re oppressed, doesn’t it?

Evil beyond conception

Posted on 26/01/2022 by Jon Garvey

Is Boris Johnson being more liberal regarding COVID because he’s under political pressure from scandal, or is he under political pressure from scandal because he’s being more liberal regarding COVID? Certainly Britain, and specifically England as opposed to the devolved regions, is an outlier amongst the western nations in dispensing with mask mandates, vaccine passports and so on.
