From Social Science Space... COVID Science and Politics – the Case of Face Masks A troubling turn in the public policy management of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the increasing tendency to justify interventions by assertions of scientific truth that bely the uncertainty of the evidence on which they are based. Nowhere, perhaps, is this...
https://youtu.be/c79UkAnrFhw Comment: The new Biden administration in the USA is putting climate change centre-stage again, and we're being told, here in the UK, that once we are successful in suppressing "the virus" (mission impossible) we will have to continue living a seriously restricted lifestyle, including the continued wearing of face marks, to prevent the dire consequences...

The above video - one of Dennis Prager's enjoyable fireside chats - takes us briefly over the past year and allows us to consider whether or not we were...
LONDON, November 5, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – As another lockdown is implemented across England, banning public worship and only allowing private prayer in churches, Cardinal Vincent Nichols has issued a letter urging Catholics to be obedient to the restrictions. The Catholic Bishops Conference of England and Wales (CBCEW) had previously issued a letter some days ago, demanding that the government...

Even in the face of self-evident sinister totalitarian governance, people like him in broadcasting still think that this is about a virus. Gimme strength. Remember, in a recent previous programme his interviewee told...
A reader emailed the text of a letter which he is sending to Rishi Sunak MP, the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, today. I have decided to withhold this reader's name, given the sinister nature of policing in the name of Covid-19, where people are being criminalised for behaviours and actions which previously were...

American lawyer Michael Senger says the COVID-19 lockdowns “might not even be science at all” but are based on Xi Jinping’s philosophy which also inspired the re-education of Uighur Muslims in concentration camps.

Surely Faith and Family suffices to make us healthy and happy into old age? I once met a...
Comment: [Note: the video originally posted here as discussion prompt was removed from YouTube platform.) Scots are to be forced to wear face masks/coverings when going into shops as from Friday 10 July (it's already mandatory to wear them on public transport). Those who fail to comply, will be liable to a £60 fine. Me, I'd...
