Advice To The WHO

 


Visiting the source of the Covid outbreak more than a year late is an utterly futile "money shot" stunt.

Your record during this pandemic has been one of abject failure. As such you should stick to the music business, and leave disease control to those who actually know what they are doing!

Priority 'R Us!

 

I see that the list of groups who believe that they should be a "priority" for vaccination grows day by day.

How "surprising"!

Don't Blame The Pubs


 

How unfortunate for the health zealots that they can no longer blame the pubs and restaurants for the ongoing outbreak!

I understand they are now setting their sights on supermarkets, the fresh air and human beings.

Good luck with that then!

Ken's Christmas Tips - No Slobbering!

Irrespective of Covid, I recommend a policy of "No Slobbering" over people at Christmas; as it spreads all manner of diseases, even in Covid free times!

Don't Fall For The Banks' Bullshit!

 


Certain banks and financial institutions are proposing that those who work from home after the pandemic should pay more tax, in order to support those who have to travel to the office.

Altruistic?

BOLLOCKS!

These institutions are not thinking of others, but merely themselves. 

For you see dear reader, they have large sums of money tied up in commercial property investments. 

Unless those properties are occupied they lose a fortune. Therefore from the banks' perspective the more people who are taxed back to offices, the better

Covid - The Reality


 

It is apparent that:

- Lockdowns don't work

- Lockdowns cause untold damage (metal health, non covid health issues and economic carnage)

- Track and trace apps in Europe have failed

- Politicians don't have a plan, other than to wait for the "vaccine "

Will the politicians change tack?

Will they fuck!

Failed In Wales - Fire-Break The Lockdown That Dare Not Speak Its Name


When all else fails, double down on what you did before that didn't work but call it something else!

It won't work, and it will be in place a lot longer than 16 days!

The Kobayashi Maru Solution

 

Every leader at some stage faces a decision where whatever he/she decides will lead to the deaths of thousands, no matter what he/she decides the leader will be blamed for those deaths (ie they face a no win scenario).

When faced with such a decision, the true leader (the one that will go down in history as a great leader) needs to grasp history by the privates and seek Captain Kirk's Kobayashi Maru solution (one that breaks the rules and dispenses with the binary choice no win scenario).

It should be noted that not every leader has gone down in history as a great leader!

Question For Handcock

If local lockdowns/restrictions, imposed and managed by central government are so effective, why is it that in those areas which have had these lockdowns/restrictions for some time do the alleged cases continue to rise?

Covid Insanity

Covid affects people in different ways, some don't even know they have it whilst others die.

However, it appears to affect governments around the world in the same manner (with the exception of Sweden) it sends them barking mad!

Wise Words From Nicola Smith - Hiding Something Only Makes Things Worse

As per Nicola Smith in the Telegraph:

From Covid to the Chernobyl disaster to several UK hospital scandals and many more, a common self-protecting trait causes humans to conceal information in a way that often only makes situations worse.  

Unfortunately for the world, the universal fear of passing bad news up the chain was all the more acute in this case under an authoritarian system that encourages officials to withhold information for fear of reprisal. 

Tragically, this enduring lack of transparency and accountability under President Xi Jinping’s Communist regime means we may never know the cause of this deadly coronavirus in order to prevent the next.

Advice To The Media

 

Testing positive for Covid is NOT the same as being ill with it.

Instead of trying to frighten people with scaremongering headlines and lazy reporting, try telling your audience the truth for once!

Covid and People's Perception of Risk

 

Covid has destroyed what little there was left of people's risk perspective and perception, and ability to understand that life is not risk free.

Sadly some governments around the world, egged on by the screeching media and experts who are not challenged by politicians who are scientifically illiterate, have handed over control to risk averse fussbuckets.

This situation will not abate until control is taken back by people who understand that life must go, irrespective of a small uptick in risk.
