Thank you Joel.

Daily press conferences - started on Monday16th March - and straight away "shielding" of the vulnerable awas introduced.

https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/pm-statement-on-coronavirus-16-march-2020

"That means that if possible you should not go out even to buy food or essentials, other than for exercise, and in that case at a safe distance from others. If necessary, you should ask for help from others for your daily necessities. And if that is not possible, then you should do what you can to limit your social contact when you leave the house to get supplies. And even if you don’t have symptoms and if no one in your household has symptoms, there is more that we need you to do now. So, second, now is the time for everyone to stop non-essential contact with others and to stop all unnecessary travel....It goes without saying, we should all only use the NHS when we really need to. And please go online rather than ringing NHS 111. Now, this advice about avoiding all unnecessary social contact, is particularly important for people over 70, for pregnant women and for those with some health conditions...So third, in a few days’ time – by this coming weekend – it will be necessary to go further and to ensure that those with the most serious health conditions are largely shielded from social contact for around 12 weeks."

The prime minister actually announced school closures from Friday 20th on 18th March https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/pm-statement-on-coronavirus-18-march-2020

Closure of businesses was announced on the Friday - 20th March.

Full lockdown - 1 hour outside only - 23rd March.

On 18th he said "So stay at home for seven days if you think you have the symptoms. Remember the two key symptoms are high temperature, a continuous new cough. Whole household to stay at home for 14 days if one member in that household thinks he/she has the symptoms... We are asking retired healthcare professionals to come back and help us cope, help the NHS to cope, with this unprecedented challenge."

At the time 10%+ had a cough or fever according to flu survey: https://x.com/ClareCraigPath/status/1586426899517112321

Thank you. So, that actually fits the timing of excess deaths even more closely (by a few days). amazing the depth of detail and accuracy we will go to and STILL our evidence holds fast, just like it did when we first started speculating so many years ago with poorer available data and inferior models? Still waiting for Ferguson to validate his model with empirical evidence...

I think it's worth pointing out that, in general terms, Neil Ferguson's model results and in particular the prediction of an entirely "overwhelmed" NHS are essentially independent of NF's model. The model took its input data on infection, hospitalisation and mortality rates from another paper by Verity et al (Ref 12 in NF's "Report 9"). Given those data, any mathematical analysis, ranging from simple arithmetic through SEIR to NF's agent-based model makes much the same predictions. They might differ between themselves by what seems a large factor - maybe 2 or so - but that would have made no effective difference to predictions of demand for e.g. critical care facilities being ~30x those available and the subsequent policy decisions. While NF's work has taken a lot of criticism, I don't think I recall Verity et al's paper being similarly treated (TBH, I can't remember it being mentioned at all).

I think that, if one is interested in understanding how the covid policy catastrophe developed, Verity's paper may be a good place to look. (Incidentally, NF is also among the authors on the Verity paper - although his name is last on a list of ~thirty names, in contrast to Report 9 where he heads the list).

26th March was my 50th birthday, I always wanted a global pandemic, not a great big friggin' fraud. Masks brought in at the third wave? That should have told us all how useless they are... We tortured children with those on flights and in school all day!

What a disaster all of the government and public health measures were, severely restricting our ability to move about which is counterintuitive to a healthy existence, covering our faces with cloth or paper which is counterintuitive to breathing properly, locking up hospitals and GP practices and reducing staff making it almost impossible to have a face to face consult which is counterintuitive to good healthcare. Every single action taken caused profound damage to our elderly, chronically sick and other vulnerable people, no public health institution can be this stupid they knew exactly the damage that would occur. I would rather face a virus any day than the help of any government or public health.

"We care for you so much that we shut down the health service"

Which in many cases would have saved lives as the NHS has been going downhill for a long time. I still had my immunotherapy treatment from through 2020 until I realised they were poisoning me and cancer treatment another pharma scam.

In fact, they shut down all the councils too!

Not quite . . . my barber had a council jobsworth biddy, complete with clipboard, come to his premises threatening to fine him because he was still open for business & refusing to wear a mask.

Somehow, she was persuaded to leave - possibly because a number of his waiting customers from Eastern Europe explained how they might react if she persisted. I think one of them even filmed it. The barber wasn't bothered again. It sounded to me like a reverse protection racket.

In general, you don't mess with Albanians. I genuinely hoped she didn't feel safer 'working from home'. I can't forget. Can't forgive, either, so I am now a bad person as well as an ex-vaxxer.

DevonshireDozer the foot soldiers were just as bad in my opinion, you don’t get to cry afterwards I was only doing my job when everything about screams it’s wrong to be punishing or persecuting people.

I know I told my boss I wouldn’t be hassle, shame or interrogate any customers who didn’t have a mask, I laid it out that it wasn’t my job to police people on their own private health and behaviour.

I remember one afternoon serving on the counter on my own when the heavens opened, I shouted everyone to come inside if they wanted, guess what not a single person stayed outside and didn’t really care we were only supposed to have two in at a time.

Some of my coworkers would’ve had a fit if they’d had seen, these are the same people who caught zilch until they took the darts.

They could have taken the opportunity to repair the roads among other things but didn't as far as I am aware in my part of the UK. They managed to have Covid Marshals though latter on (face palm!).

It was all guidance so nobody needed to follow it unless they thought it sensible. But most people weren't sensible. Still, the air was cleaner and roads quiet among other things.

You nailed it Joel. But why do I still get so annoyed whenever I see a checkout employee at the supermarket, still wearing a paper mask June 19, 2024!

Joel, if you are interested in timelines, here is the US DOD-Australia timeline that shows (among other items) when the first pandemic modelling was performed. This pandemic modelling was performed by the military (US and Australia) in Jan/February 2020 and is classified which is why it has not been released. https://vicparkpetition.substack.com/p/theatre-of-war-australias-covid-response

I have been looking for someone in the UK to do a similar timeline with regards to their own Five Eyes Intelligence.

Speculation: I also believe there is a smoking gun document held by UK intelligence (via Operation Warp Speed) that details the hospital protocols. I believe that the remit of this document ('protect the NHS') involved killing the elderly and disabled to 'clear out' the hospitals in 'anticipation' of the hospitals being swamped. Once they started the killing according to the protocols, they did not stop. https://vicparkpetition.substack.com/p/for-the-greater-good-did-uk-mp-andrew

Thank you for your work. All the best.

And, they want to do it again!!! Be ready to say NO this time. No to all of it. It's going to get very bad if these monsters have their way. "Covid" was their test to see if they could get away with all of the horrors they have planned. Don't think for one minute they didn't learn from their mistakes.

Expand full comment

There were no mistakes, it was deliberate.

The question is, will the masses learn form their mistakes, or will they have to keep taking the test?

My guess is some very evil creatures pulling the strings aided and abetted by useful idiots. People like Wollensky and Cohen don’t have the brain power of a flea. They just regurgitate nonsense and tell themselves how wonderful they are.

Kakistocracy - government by the worst persons; a form of government in which the worst persons are in power.

Nomenklatura - (in the former Soviet Union) a list of influential posts in government and industry to be filled by Communist Party appointees.

"the system of nomenklatura, which reserves important appointments to the Party apparatus"

Brilliant work. You bring it home to us what we actually all lived at the time. I felt like we were fighting a war but didn't know who the enemy was. That soon became clear. They have always been the enemy of the people and the job of those awake is to eradicate this scourge as soon as we can. Well done.

Absolutely. It was a war, just a war of words. The one's with the best words organised in the best way wins.

A Most Dangerous Assumption: Mining the Future to Spend More Today

What the cheerleaders are actually claiming is the process of adding zeroes to "money" is limitless, but there are limits on the utility of devaluing currency, too.

CHARLES HUGH SMITH

JUN 19, 2024

How prosperous would the world be if we hadn't collectively borrowed and spent $315 trillion----333% of global GDP? We all know the answer--not very prosperous at all, for production, consumption and profits would all be mere fractions of their current totals if we could not borrow money and could only spend cash on hand. Global Debt Hit $315 Trillion In Q1 2024.

All this money that's been spent/invested has effectively been mined / extracted from future resources, labor and capital. The basic idea is that the interest that must be paid on this debt will be paid out of earnings generated by the productive use of resources, labor and capital in the future. Once the debt matures and the principle must be returned to the lender / bond purchaser, this principle must also be mined / extracted from assets available in the future.

Mining / extraction is the appropriate analogy because nothing is unlimited in the real world. Imagination--yes, it's unlimited. Denial and delusion: yes, both are limitless. But tangible resources that can be recovered at costs the economy can bear, productive labor and capital are not limitless. If we mine the future too intensively, there won't be enough left in the future to spend/invest at the level we enjoy today.

The fundamental assumption behind mining the future is that the pool of resources, labor and capital will continue expanding forever, effortlessly funding the interest and principle due on today's borrowing and leaving more than enough to consume and invest in the future.

But what happens when the resources, labor and capital available to mine in the future shrink?
