WC Leonid Palladin: Mikhail & Raisa Gorbachev May 2nd, 2022...In the UK the number of people infected with Covid-19 was reducing, but in the PRC lockdowns in Shanghai were continuing. The cost of the pandemic to the British tax payer was slowly becoming apparent and alarming. Of the £47 billion pounds handed out to companies in bounce back loans, it was now certain that £17 billion won't be paid back, whilst £4.9 billion had been lost to fraud. It appears that there were very few checks made. The loans, up to £50,000, were provided by HMG via banks, to be paid back over 6 years, designed to keep companies afloat during the pandemic. Unfortunately it proved too much of a temptation for many, who spent the money on an extravagant lifestyle. As a result HMG has set up the Taxpayer Protection Taskforce, composed of 1,300 staff, to recover another £1 billion of taxpayers money. Oxford University experts predict fraud in HMG's pandemic schemes is now amounting to £37 billion. 374 pandemic schemes were set up by HMG at a cost of £370 billion. As for the future of the UK's prime minister. He has now moved on to supplying weapons to Ukraine following Russia's invasion. And hopefully those weapons will be fit for purpose, unlike PPE. The death of about 20,000 people from Covid-19 due to his suspected policy of herd immunity, many of them due to the transfer of infected elderly patients from hospitals to care homes, the incompetence and possible fraud involving PPE administered from 10 Downing Street instead of NHS acquisitions departments, plus the continuing stream of fines handed out by the police over partygate, have done nothing to remove him. The Conservative propaganda machine is ensuring that he and his colleagues stay in power until the Russo-Ukraine war is finalized, or at least until the May 5th local election results are known, whichever is the most blood thirsty. I want to get out of Russia's missile firing line but there appears to be no country in the southern hemisphere where I can go to, where the nuclear fallout will be minimal and where I can get my index linked state pension, due to my criminal record. Will a retired BJ be let in? Oh, good heavens yes, on his global lecture tour.
May 13th, 2022...On this Friday, the total number of people the World Health Organisation estimates to have died from Covid-19 is believed to be 6,258,356. 177,088 have died from Covid-19 in the UK, one million in the United States, whilst in the whole of Europe it has reached two million. There are mow half a million people waiting for social care in England, whilst in many parts of the UK it's quicker to get to hospital by public transport than by ambulance. Pandemic lockdowns in the PRC continue, whilst North Korea finally admits to being infected. Whilst everything appears normal in the UK, the seven day average deaths from Covid-19 is now 210. And as for the local elections in the UK, they were not blood thirsty enough to warrant the disposal of BJ. The electorate is simply too forgiving or forgetful or dead.
May 19th, 2022...Today finally saw the release of the Sue Gray report, named after a senior civil servant, containing details of the 16 parties held in Whitehall during the lockdown. The report was 37 pages long containing numerous photographs of the PM & Co. having a jolly good time. A total of 126 fines were issued for breaking the pandemic regulations. Some Conservative MPs called for the PM's resignation, but it was simply not forthcoming since the PM changed the regulations covering the behaviour of politicians and civil servants. A few days later the Covid-19 restrictions on movement in the Chinese city of Shanghai were lifted. And whilst deaths from Covid-19 were continuing, another virus raised its ugly head. This was the mild form of monkey virus from west Africa. It appeared to be striking at random around the world, whilst HMG was telling people to avoid bodily contact, and that those that had it should stay indoors. The advise was beginning to sound like that for HIV. Is this the next time? Would this blog ever end?
June 9th, 2022...Moderna announce that they have developed a bivalent vaccine that can handle both Covid-19 and the Omicron variant. Called mRNA1273.214 its efficiency implies that it will require just one booster jab per annum to provide complete protection. Politically, things were still simmering, with our PM winning a confidence vote in the House of Commons on June 6th, but the opposition demanding details of the continuing police investigation into suspect PPE purchases involving PPE Medpro and Baroness Mone, a peer in the House of Lords. The confidence vote appeared to be expertly timed before two by-elections, the results of which could have seen the PM deposed.
June 29th, 2022...There are now 1.7 million people infected with Covid-19, mostly Omicron variants BA.4 and BA.5, in the UK, but only 100 people suffering with it in intensive care, due to the success of the inoculation programme. HMG now appears to be more concerned with west African monkey pox, which appears to be spreading amongst our gay communities.
July 7th, 2022...After his health minister and chancellor resign 2 days before, Prime Minister Boris Johnson makes his resignation speech outside 10 Downing Street, containing not one word of apology for all the mistakes and excesses he made during his two and a half years as head of government. No mention of the cost of refurbishing his flat, the cost of the pandemic, £400 billion, of which most of it was wasted, including furlough money paid to airlines that were now having to cancel flights in their thousands because they can't find the staff. And of course there were thousands killed by his apparent herd immunity policy and the transfer of infected elderly patients from hospitals to care homes, the communications evidence of which were buried without trace in Whatsapp, much to the ICO's (Information Commissioner's Office) annoyance. And just how many of his cronies made a fortune from the PPE purchasing scandal? And while all this was going on, the nation was in lockdown. No funerals and no visits allowed to relatives in care homes, as Whitehall went party crazy. And of course he refused to close the borders to people, despite several warnings from the opposition parties, making damping down of the pandemic impossible. It was estimated that over 1000 infected people entered the country during the lockdown, thereby stoking the pandemic. The two scandals that finally brought him down were his recruitment of apparent sex fiend and alcoholic Chris Pincher MP for Tamworth, despite warnings from government officials, and the secret meetings he had with ex-KGB oligarch Alexander Lebedev in 2018, when he was foreign secretary, which resulted in his son receiving a peerage in the House of Lords. No doubt the Profumo affair was upper most in Conservative MPs' minds as the axe finally came down, as the number of resigning ministers and deputy ministers reached around fifty, resulting in threats from the civil service. Of course there had been sex based innuendos. An alleged affair with US business woman Jennifer Arcuri, for whom the taxpayer funded her business trip, whilst as mayor of London he strived to get his eventual wife Carrie Johnson made chief of staff. And now emerging from the shadows there was apparently a mistress, also from his days as mayor in 2017, whom he tried to get a city hall job for. And then of course there was Angela Rayner's legs putting him off his speeches, and Conservative MP Jamie Wallis, found in women's clothes by police after crashing his car into a lamp post. To the horror of many, BJ is still clinging on as PM in an interim government, as Conservative MPs dither as to who should replace him. Parliament breaks up for holidays in one weeks time. They should all be crushing rocks in a quarry in my opinion. The trail of destruction they had created beggared belief; HS2, inability to recycle plastic, failed smart meters, fanciful heat pumps and more IT wows with the NHS App. With such low standards, there wasn't a hope in hell of getting a technocracy in the UK. That same day the OBR (Office of Budget Responsibility) stated that UK debt was on an unsustainable path unless spending is tightened and taxes raised. Clearly the PM and Conservative Party were levelling up the debt as the candidates for the top job offered low taxes, low taxes, low taxes. The UK national debt now officially stood at £1,811 billion, and then of course there is the government waste that should have been spent on revenue earning schemes, private finance initiative, pensions, plus corporate and personal debt. The pound was effectively worthless, as were many other currencies at this time. There were to be many political shake-ups like this in numerous countries as people reluctantly decided that their government simply wasn't professional enough. For how much longer would our multi-party capitalist system continue in this form?
July 14th, 2022... Amazingly there are still 3 million people in England who have steadfastly refused to get inoculated against Covid-19. As the number infected with monkey pox climbed in the UK, Marburg virus, with an 88% kill rate, had emerged in west Africa. DWP cost of living payments commence today to those on benefits, to cover the increased cost of electricity and gas, brought on by the Russo-Ukraine war and readjustment of the global economy after the pandemic. There will be another similar payment in the Autumn. I am still unable to get an appointment with my GP. I haven't seen a doctor for over two years. Two years ago my GP refused to put me forward for a cancer test after my younger brother died from stomach cancer. Now, despite an offer to the general population of such a test, I can't get one because the surgeries automatic telephone answering system won't put my call through. Two years ago I could not even get a steroid injection for my arthritic knee as the man who was supposed to give it to me said that I was not serious enough. Now I can't even gain access to my detailed medical file on the internet, through the NHS App, in order to screen print details for an Attendance Allowance application, because I can't see a GP that could arrange it. After living on my own for the last 35 years I felt really pissed off.
July 23rd, 2022...There are now 16,000 people infected worldwide with monkey pox, as the WHO declares it a public health emergency of public concern. The NHS on the other hand is far from prepared. It now has 110,000 job vacancies caused by Brexit migrations, deaths and overwork from Covid-19 and an absence of strategic planning resulting in an under spend of £8 billion on social care. The vacancies include 12,000 hospital doctors and 50,000 nurses and midwives. It's plainly obvious to me that under the emergency powers act (do we have one?) the Nightingale hospitals need to be staffed by ex-employees of the NHS, plus auxiliary nurses conscripted as part of our Eastern Europe Preparedness National Service Plan. Of course parliament and HMG can't see the need for such action, as £3850 annual energy bills lurk on the not too distant horizon, along with the west's equivalent of the Arab Spring, which is likely to lead to WWIII (world war three). Of course our politicians can't see that any more than King Louis XVI could see lousing his head as he stepped onto that coach at Versaille. As Mad Vlad slowly shuts down the natural gas supply to Europe from Siberia, now at only 20%, just when will our government's tolerance snap. The answer of course is to shut down the commodity markets in fossil fuels and grain, but how? Clearly the matter has to be decided at the United Nations. Fossil fuels and grains must be sold to governments at an internationally agreed price. The governments then sell it to the retailer at the same price. The retailer would not be allowed to obtain these products from any other source. The bulk gas price today on the BBC>business>market data website is 422p/therm (27-07-2022). Prior to March 2021 the average price was 50p/therm. So I am now paying eight times more than 16 months ago. God knows what it will be this winter. If that's not an equation for a revolution, I don't know what is. Clearly my mate Vlad needs to close the valves a bit more before we get a world technocracy or global thermonuclear war, as the mob razes Whitehall and the pleasure Palace of Westminster to the ground. I have noticed on the BBC's gas price chart that prices were relatively stable prior to August 2021, but since then have fluctuated wildly, implying that they are being manipulated to the point of sabotage, rather than being influenced solely by demand. So why have governments and their intelligence agencies done nothing about it? Apart from Russia, just who is profiting from this speculation, that will inevitably result in the deaths of tens of thousands of people next winter.
August 2nd, 2022...16,000 UK registered companies, that are owing £500 million to HMG in Covid-19 loans, have gone bust. Hundreds of their directors have been disqualified from running a business. On the Grenfell Tower front the court has decided that the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea Council is liable for the deaths of 5 of its occupants. 1100 people are claiming damages due to the fire which destroyed the tower block on the 14th June 2017. In another court case at this time, a judge has advised HMG to pay the remaining 4,000 haemophilia survivors of the hepatitis C - HIV blood transfusion scandal £400 million compensation. The 4,000 survivors would receive an initial payment of £100,000 each or it would go to their bereaved partner. This was another failure in the NHS which acquired blood, much of it from down and outs, in the USA from 1973 to 1986 for the treatment of haemophilia patients, only for a TV media company (World In Action) to find out two years later that some of it was contaminated with hepatitis C or HIV. 2,400 patients died. This practice was stopped by parliament only in 1988. It was a glowing example of the contempt parliament and government officials had for their constituents.
August 9th, 2022...Moderna to provide a duel vaccine for Covid-19 and the Omicron variant, available from September 5th in UK to elderly, vulnerable and medical staff. Meanwhile the cost of living increases like a ticking time bomb. I came up with the brilliant idea of eating salads, since they wouldn't need heating. Unfortunately a lot of people had clearly come up with this idea before me. Upon arrival at the convenience store I found that a pack of 6 tomatoes would cost either £1-20 or £1-50 depending upon my taste. That's an increase of 20 to 50%! The prime minister went off on holiday, effectively leaving the nation rudderless. Neither of the two candidates meant to replace him were credible in my opinion. The one that won the election to be leader would not take office until September 5th. On August 15th it was announced that the average price of energy from October 2022 will be £3,500, whilst from January it will be £4,500. The nation was heading towards the perfect political storm. The leader of the opposition Sir Keir Starmer, called the leadership a zombie government. He was of course right.
August 9th, 2022...The price of natural gas on the BBC website had now reached 560p/therm. Clearly someone was rigging the market. Would HMG fix prices or carry on handing out subsidies with the certainty that it would encourage Russia to continue the war, leading to a bankrupt west. A company was now drilling for gas in Zimbabwe, as the UK awaited an LNG carrier all the way from Australia.
August 26th, 2022...Railway workers, dock workers and bin men in Scotland are engaged in industrial action due to increasing cost of living. The energy price cap for households will be £3549 per annum from October 1st, with rises forecast in January to £5700 and in April to £6300. The amounts were clearly impossible for most people to pay. Over the decades HMG had destroyed well paid jobs, and by encouraging divorce had increased energy consumption in two homes instead of one. It had burnt off the nation's gas reserves in gas fired power stations, and shut down almost all the nation's coal fired power stations despite having huge reserves of coal. The final seven will be shut down by 2025; at least that's the plan, Putin permitting. The eyes of the nation were now on the two candidates for prime minister, neither of whom was saying anything about how they would handle this crisis when one of them takes office on September 5th. As for me I still hadn't received a working 'in home device', nor any FIT payments from SSE for the last one and a half years. It was now obvious to me that SSE were not reading my emails, and that all I was receiving from them were standard phases selected by a computer. I was unable to get through to anyone at SSE today on the telephone. The ombudsman would soon be dealing with both cases. It was obvious to me that companies doing business over the internet should be obliged by law to have the necessary staff to handle emails, as well as telephone calls. And whilst we're on the subject of legality, it must be plainly obvious to just about everyone that the sale of out utility services should never have taken place, and that some of it was sold off at highly preferential rates that did not benefit the nation. Those involved in the sale of these assets should stand trial for corruption. Namely politicians, senior civil servants, advisors, directors of investment companies, etc. I therefore conclude that the conservative party should be declared an illegal organisation and shut down. Will the police do this before or after parliament is razed to the ground? When you have been stripped of everything; your savings, your home, your self respect, then you have nothing to lose by conducting violent protest. All the factors for a perfect storm appeared to be in place.
August 30th, 2022...The death was announced of ex-Soviet Premier Mikhail Gorbachev. He was the only politician I had any respect for. A true technocrat. Aged 91, he died in hospital after a long illness. I had wanted to relocate to the southern hemisphere; well away from the expected nuclear fallout. However, there are only four countries outside of the EU that can provide an index linked state pension (Philippines, Jamaica, Barbados, Mauritius) and they are all in the northern hemisphere. Forbes states that I can live in Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Peru or Italy. I am stuck between a rock and a hard place like millions of other people.
September 2nd, 2022...The American astronomer and astrophysicist Frank Drake died at the age of 92. He was the author of the Drake equation that estimated the number of intelligent civilisations in our Milky Way galaxy.
September 5th, 2022...Liz Truss was announced the next prime minister and head of the Conservative Party. The next day BJ handed in his resignation to Queen Elizabeth II at Balmoral, Scotland, followed by Liz Truss, and no doubt the madness would start all over again. LT had promised low taxes at a time when the nation was officially £2.2 billion in debt. Rumour had it that HMG had accepted the energy retailers plan of government loans to them and not consumers. This meant that anyone wanting to use the thousands of subsidy to upgrade their photo-voltaics was in for a disappointment. Could HMG see this? The plan would be revealed officially in two days time.
The next day you could have knocked me down with a feather when I received a letter from my energy supplier SSE. 'We owe you £547.28.' They had finally paid my FIT (Feed-In Tariff), the output from my photo-voltaics to the mains, for the first time in over one and a half years. What had made them shift; the never ending stream of emails, the ombudsman, or clicking on their web site to tell them why I was 'moving'? Could it be guilt? The fact that they were stealing my electricity. No never.
As for HMG handing out loans to energy suppliers in order to subsidise energy bills, that is likely to cost hundreds of billions of pounds per year. Clearly there has to be a cut-off point. It should be 3 years, during which time HMG and the City would finance major clean energy projects such as Severn Tidal Barrage, SWEL wave energy, wind farms on Anglesey and Pembrokeshire, HB11 non-thermal fusion, etc. The HMG loans would be paid back from profits from these projects. In order to encourage investment from the City, interest rates should be reduced to zero, with negative interest rates for account holders banned in order to incentivise investment in such projects. That makes more sense than reducing taxes. We need to be the energy source for the continent of Europe, to replace Russia. The demand is there, but is the vision and common sense here?
September 8th, 2022...HMG issues its plan to combat high energy prices. The government will direct most of the subsidy direct to energy companies, thereby preventing home owners from using the money to go off grid, whilst ensuring that companies happily make contributions to the Conservative Party, as more millionaires are created. The payback will come from the peasants, who being used to low wages in the gig economy, not to mention £150 per week rents, will cough up without protest. Evidently a windfall tax of energy producing companies did not go down well in the House of Commons since the tax was already at 65%. Needless to say the payback will last years. Just how many will probably be decided by Vladimir Putin. If the war drags on for ten years it could cost HMG one trillion pounds, and that don't include the cost of all those munitions being shipped to the Ukraine. Well that's the plan. If you ask me, it's a recipe for revolution. When you deliberately put tens of millions of people in debt, they have nothing to lose by protesting, then rebelling. Can any of these MP's see that? As for my solution to my energy problem, I gave SSE its 28 day notice by sending them an email and a letter to their Reading HQ ordering them to close my FIT, gas and electricity accounts. I then scoured the local internet for PV installers. The next day I found out that the industry was waiting for panels and batteries from the far east that would not arrive until October. It appears that I have arranged things the wrong way around. Salads, cold showers, burst pipes and a cacoon of duvet blankets possibly lay ahead. Following decisions made by the European Commission (emergency measures), and the fact that Germany has almost filled its storage facilities for winter, the price of bulk gas had fallen from 700 pence/therm to 370p/therm, as the pound fell in value. Were the price rises caused by the failure of governments to coordinate and thereby level out demand, and not pay crazy prices for gas? Was I making the right decision?
That afternoon HRH Queen Elizabeth II died peacefully at Balmoral, Scotland. She had reigned for 70 years. She immortalized the words discipline, duty and sacrifice. The latter because she never retired, nor did she do her own thing. She had outlived the Covid-19 pandemic knowing full well that a state funeral would not be possible during the lockdown. Now her funeral would remind countless next of kin of their funeral that was forbidden by the state. Looking at these prime ministers, had she seen the writing on the wall, and decided that now was the time to depart? As with the death of Sean Connery it signified the end of an era. There were background images of the late queen on Microsoft Edge browser and its toolbar. Such was the respect people had for her from around the world.
September 23rd, 2022...On the medical front HMG has refused to supply the Covid-19 drug Evusheld to people with weakened immune system. Meanwhile at the Francis Crick Institute in London, medical scientists discover that air pollution causes damaged cells to multiply, whilst in Australia the drug, CuATSM, has been shown to be effective against motor neurone disease, and in some cases can reverse its effects.
Research by the Nuffield Foundation financed by the BBC indicates that 40,000 nurses left the NHS in the previous year, almost as many as are currently being trained.
October 13th, 2022...The flu and Covid-19 vaccinations start. I was still unable to see a GP at my surgery, despite HMG deciding to scrap the 8am to 8-30am telephoned appointment system. When I phoned at 3pm there were six calls in front of me, so I hung up. There was no point in waiting half an hour, to be told to call some other time. After receiving an email about my next Covid-19 jab, I arranged to have the jab at an NHS centre I had never been to before. A week later I went down to my local Tesco supermarket to get a flu jab, only to be told that I had to secure an appointment first. I hobbled off home feeling disgusted. I got my jab there 2 weeks later. There was no queue. The NHS waiting list now numbered 7 million, due mainly to a lack of hospital beds and staff. Care homes and care at home were now in a very desperate situation. My view was that GPs should be relocated to work in hospital wards, A&E or research, with nurses taking blood and urine samples, and giving jabs at people's homes or work places. Auxiliary nurses would be conscripted to work where necessary. Clearly this simple message had not materialized within the brains of NHS management. There were now 12% less operations being conducted than before the lockdown. The NHS then appealed for blood donors, whilst also announcing that people with lucky genes, namely HLA-DQB1%06, created a bigger antibody response than normal. The trial began at Manchester Court, of nurse Lucy Letby, accused of murdering 7 babies and the attempted murder of 10 others, at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
October 20th, 2022...That day the CQC (Care Quality Commission) stated that the NHS was grid locked. Most of the news this month was political, but it all had serious implications for the nation's National Health Service. People's quality of life was falling dramatically, and this was likely to affect the nation's health for years to come. 45 days previously Lizz Truss had been elected leader of the Conservative Party and prime minister. Unfortunately her chancellor failed to get OBR approval for the mini budget he presented to parliament. The budget was based upon growth through low taxation, a monetarist approach which financial institutions' worldwide had long since rejected. As a result the pound sterling fell in value causing government guilt's interest rates to rise, thereby increasing HMG borrowing costs. Bank of England base rate increased, as the bank forked out billions rescuing British pension funds. The raising of mortgage interest rates from 3.5% to about 6% increased payments considerably. Roughly, for a 1% increase in mortgage rate, payments were now £50 per month for every £100,000 borrowed. The chancellor was obliged to resign. The prime minister, known as the 'hand grenade', resigned on October 20th, no doubt causing the credit rating agency Moody to downgrade the nation's credit rating to negative, 2 days later. The TUC (Trades Union Congress) could see 20 years of no wage growth ahead. The cost of living had increased 12.5% in just a few weeks, with trade union organised strikes now a regular feature. The energy crisis was now one year old, with no effective long term solution from government. For one year the nation had been effectively rudderless. HMG now stated that the government's energy support to consumers would end next April. The bulk price of natural gas was yo-yoing, as the government's economic plan had been see-sawing between low taxes and high interest rates. A new prime minister would be in place at the end of October. There were rumours that our ex-prime minister Boris Johnson and his side kick Rishi Sunak would be candidates. Many MPs wanted Boris because that was what the BBC News were promoting. They clearly had more regard for their own job security than the nation's economic future, whilst the media could clearly see another story (disaster) in the wings. Family debt was increasing in the thousands, whilst our politicians lived a remote existence in the pleasure Palace of Westminster, like Czar Nicholas' family. And like the Roman Empire the nation was now clearly imploding.
October 26th, 2022...Rishi Sunak, our late chancellor who squandered £400 billion on Covid-19 pandemic (that's £5,882 per person) became prime minister. Talk of scraping the barrel. Boris had decided not to contest. Probably the best decision he ever made, whilst many better candidates clearly chose a job as minister in the new cabinet. As for the economy, HMG decided to delay the fiscal statement from October 31st to November 17th, and call it a full autumn statement. Just what was HMG hiding? NO doubt the AI computers in HM treasury would have to agree with the AI computers in the OBR, and no doubt that would read 'get an AI army'. It was now revealed that illegal immigrants were costing HMG £7 million per day in hotel costs, whilst the airline responsible for taking them to Rwanda had pulled out of the deal.
There were now about 7,000 people waiting for organ transplants on the NHS. Additionally HMG were noticeably silent on the subject of increased Covid-19 related deaths. Deaths due to heart and diabetes related problems, many from people who had been in hospital with Covid-19 were worryingly high. In England and Wales the deaths numbered 25,878 in 2021. Whilst direct Covid-19 deaths in 2022 have so far reached 18,394, indirect deaths have reached 23,195 since May. These unexpected deaths are undermining all the money and effort HMG & NHS spent fighting the pandemic. The British Heart Foundation say that the 30,000 excess cardiac deaths in England since the start of the pandemic is due to NHS ambulance delays, inaccessible care and long surgery waits. Of course this isn't the full story. As a result of being kept indoors for at least two years, many people's eyesight is now suffering from myopia, having stared at nothing but walls for so long. And of course, like me, people are suffering from arthritis, having been kept out of direct sunlight for ages. Then there are all those that are still suffering from the long term effects of Covid-19, plus the fact that for millions their social lives have been destroyed, having lost touch with casual acquaintances. With no place in the sun, for people with criminal records to retire to, no place in the southern hemisphere where pensioners can receive an index linked state pension whilst avoiding the coming nuclear fallout, obliged to live alone because HMG has trashed marriage and the family, the UK citizen's quality of life can only be described as grim. 25% of adults now had less than £100 of savings, whilst 10 million people now worked as unpaid carers. The UK and many other western countries simply aren't worth living in and working in. Not that those illegal immigrants risking life and limb crossing the English Channel in their kayaks and inflatable boats know that. Were all these Covid-19 restrictions worth it? 1 in 32 people now had Covid-19 in England. 769 people had died in the UK during the last 7 days. Total deaths in UK was now at 209,000, whilst worldwide it was 6.6 million. Only half of this countries citizens had been vaccinated. The PRC was maintaining a zero tolerance approach to Covid-19, resulting in the closure of factories, probably because it wanted an excuse not to supply arms to Russia, as it was dependent upon imports of gas from that country. Had it supplied arms it could easily become another nuclear target for the USA were Russia to go rogue.
December 13th, 2022...HMG announces the New Born Genomes Programme, which will screen 100,000 babies for 200 treatable disorders in the UK. This follows the recent announcement that a teenager at Great Ormond Street Hospital has had her immune system bio-engineered to defeat leukemia, since no other treatment worked. Following a statement in the House of Commons on December 7th, that antibiotics (penicillin & amoxicillin) to fight an outbreak of strep A, were freely available, the AIMP (Association of Independent Multiple Pharmacies) was now stating that the situation was getting worse. As a result HMG banned the export of four drugs. Unassociated with this was the spread of H5N1 bird flu around the planet, which was resulting in the culling of millions of chickens and turkeys on farms. Farm animals were thought to be the incubator for most human pandemics. HMG sets up another 19 diagnostic centres to add to the 91 that already exist in England. This is the first I've heard about this scheme. I looked it up on the internet. Below a few private medical companies the NHS website did not mention 'diagnostic centre' the first time I used Google search. It did however display Diagnostic World which is part of the UK's private health care. On the Community Diagnostic Centre website there was no hyperlink to the centres listed. It was a poor show. Also in the news was a story about the Local Care Association in the UK city of Manchester. Their website was far more helpful, but there were none for other parts of the country, including Birmingham.
December 25th, 2022...UK Health Security Agency announces that Covid-19 modeling data will no longer be released, due to positive effect of vaccines and therapeutic treatment. In the PRC Covid-19 restrictions are abandoned, causing death rates to increase, but statistics are not revealed to public. Strep A had now killed 127 people in the UK, only 5 outside England.
January 2nd, 2023...New Year's Eve passed quietly for me. I had a couple of expensive pints of Carling lager at O'Neill's Pub, Broad Street, then went home on the tram and bus. For many however, going home was not an option. They were in hospitals' A&E with flu or Covid-19, waiting through long delays, to be attended to, due to staff shortages. The Royal College of Emergency Medicine stated that A&E was now in a complete state of crisis, resulting 500 deaths per week say medics. Meanwhile, all the PM wants is for school children to study maths up to the age of 18. There is no mention whatsoever of sending the over 16s on work experience, including that of auxiliary nurses, at a time when businesses are complaining of a shortage of workers. HMG was in my opinion mishandling the most potentially productive years of these childrens' lives. HMG could only say that it was aware of the problem in the NHS. I had written a letter to the prime minister on this subject, which I think I posted on December 10th, but have since received no reply. It reads as follows:

Wednesday, December 7th, 2022Rt. Hon. Rishi Sunak MP
10 Downing Street,
Whitehall,
London
SW1A 2AA
Dear Prime Minister,Don't you think it's about time that HMG got the NHS working to an acceptable standard? I haven't seen a GP for at least two and a half years despite repeated phone calls to my GP's surgery. At the age of 74, I suffer from arthritis, and have to buy my treatment because I have no repeat prescriptions to apply for over the internet. You are no doubt wondering how you can improve the situation within the NHS.
We are at war with Russia in the Ukraine, and yet we have no national service, no civil defence force and too few auxiliary nurses (healthcare assistants) to answer normal requirements, never mind the aftermath of global thermonuclear war. It's time that HMG and parliament stopped burying their heads in the sand to both problems.
The main problem in the NHS is its management. Only a totally apathetic and incompetent management could allow the present state of affairs to persist. Staff are leaving due to stress, overwork, lack of competent management and the availability of finance. Increasing GP remuneration decades ago has merely enabled GP's to retire early. Lowering the super tax threshold has encouraged this flow to increase. Our armed forces need to take over. It must be blatantly obvious to everyone that to remove the log jam at A&E, most GP's need to be transferred to hospital's A&E, wards and laboratories, whilst more auxiliary nurses need to be deployed in care homes and private residences. Existing nurses need to be more productively employed, by taking blood and urine samples at people's homes and places of work. As for patients, they need direct access to the NHS AI GP, which like GP's is 85 % accurate. This should be able to prescribe prescriptions and arrange appointments with specialists, medical tests, etc. Simply throwing money at the NHS is not going to solve the problem.
To provide the necessary personnel numbers, young idealistic people will need to be conscripted into our civil defence force as auxiliary nurses, rather than wasting away their youth engaged in worthless degree courses.
The NHS was created as a reward to the nation in defeating fascism. As such it cannot be privatised. However, in the long term, cost effective medical care must be attained, through automation. IT and AI is good at repeated tasks, such as countering infections. This maybe achieved, based upon present research at the University of Edinburgh (leprosy) and the US company Histosonics / University of Michigan, to create a scanner that can detect and rectify abnormalities automatically, one of which could be installed at each future NHS annual medical scan centres.
As for my arthritis, I have been taking Vitamin D3 and multi-vitamin tablets for the last five months, and have noticed a dramatic improvement. I can now walk long distances with no pain at all. So why does the NHS prefer expensive joint operations, rather than this simple solutions,which I read about on the internet involving medical scientists in China? I cannot find any mention of this on the NHS website, and neither is there a list of drugs that people can buy from chemists, that do not require a prescription.
HMG spent £310 billion to £410 billion on Covid 19, much of it going to waste. At least 100 people are still dying daily in the UK, despite about 92% of the population having been inoculated. This incident clearly shows just how complicated managing a society is these days. I think you will have to agree with me that our present constitution is a liability, and stands no chance of standing up to the technocracy in the PRC in the long term.
Reducing the super tax rate decades ago during the Margaret Thatcher era, subsidised by the sale of nationalised assets, was a big mistake. The money from these sales soon ran out, causing the national debt to inextricably enlarge. During WWII this rate was at about 90%. We are now at war again. Tax incentives are for entrepreneurs, not multi-millionaires and billionaires who do not own and manage their own company. On the subject of 'go for growth', in addition to medical scan centres, there are four projects that would be beneficial to the economy.
1...At this moment in time the continent of Europe needs energy, to obviate the need to buy it from Russia. HMG should invest in such projects, be they wind, wave, sea current, tidal or fusion. There is a great need in my opinion for the Severn Tidal Barrage and HB11 fusion. The former would be built in shipyards and as such would boost the northern economy and morale. The energy would be stored either in a pump storage power station on Exmoor or as liquid air. The new tidal range would still provide food for migratory birds.
2....HB11 is the only fusion project that could be mass produced in thousands per annum, drastically reducing CO2 output. It operates at low temperature and can generate electricity without turbo-generators. It would not surprise me if it turned out that the laser technology for this already existed, but is classified. This technology is small enough to be manufactured quickly and in large numbers. It can be set up at an electricity sub-station, or power a ship and possibly a large interplanetary spaceship.
3....AI and quantum computing are a must. The reason is that as long as there are dictators, we are faced with a constant battle to stay ahead in the technological race. These technologies have the potential to transform civilisation almost overnight, with potentially disastrous repercussions. Since Russia is developing nuclear powered rockets, it is reasonable to assume that they are also developing UFO technology. Should they succeed, the repercussions are obvious. Clearly the war in the Ukraine must be terminated in the shortest possible time, before this technology is developed.
4....Your mandatory target of 300,00 new homes was long overdue, but its cancellation was not. My website promotes homes that produce their own food and energy, so as not to be welfare dependent. There is however a way to solve two associated problems.
a....Many pensioners want to retire abroad and thereby avoid the UK's terrible climate, but they cannot afford to do so, or they are discouraged, or not allowed to. One third of adult males have a criminal record, and according to Forbes are only allowed to live full time in Abruzzo, Italy, Mexico, Colombia, Peru or Chile. None of these countries enable our pensioners to have access to their inflation proof state pension, which is only allowed in the EU, Philippines, Jamaica, Mauritius and Barbados. I would like to live in Santiago, Chile which has a balmy temperature of 22C all year round.
b....This country imports half of its food produce, most of which comes from small countries, whose economy is highly dependent upon food exports. Many of these warm countries are in the Commonwealth, whilst the UK needs to grow huge expanses of fruit and veg under glass.
These two problems can be solved at the same time. We grow our food, whilst these former suppliers provide HMG with care homes, plus the right for retirees, including those with criminal records, to build/purchase their own homes there. This would not only give workers in the UK an incentive to boost their pensions, but also get the housing market moving.
Not to go for growth at a time of an industrial renaissance brought about by artificial intelligence and quantum computing would be a big mistake. There have been enough failed opportunities in the past, colour 3D TV, computing, space satellites and their launchers, etc., that have now brought the pound sterling to an unacceptably low level against the US dollar. The only way is now up.
You will find other ideas on my website, which in my opinion, all politicians and senior civil servants should read. This nation urgently needs a technocracy.
I trust that these suggestions are met with a positive and determined frame of mind.
Happy Christmas,
Yours respectfully,
Mr. Nigel S. Allen

January 10th, 2023...HMG announced that there were 650,000 excess deaths in the UK in 2022, 9% more than in 2019. 36,000 died from Covid-19. Just days before HMG and BioNTech announced collaboration in developing a cancer vaccine that would involve 10,000 people in tests before the year 2030. It would be based upon mRNA technology employed in their Covid-19 vaccine. For many, all this research would come too late, as the baby boomers, probably including me, died off
January 12th, 2023...I finally got invited to my GP's surgery for a health check. My height, weight and blood pressure were noted, before blood samples were taken from my arm for later analysis. Four days later I received a phone call from someone who told me the results. My cholesterol level was at 6, when it should be between 3 and 5. That was probably because of all the bars of dark chocolate I was eating, plus a jar of mayonnaise, both of which I bought by mistake. I should have bought McVitie's wholemeal digestive dark chocolate biscuits instead, but I find that it's difficult to order the right thing on the internet. The mayonnaise should have come in a squeeze bottle, so I would not have consumed so much, whilst I had somehow forgotten to order tomatoes. The voice recommended that I resume my order for Statins, which I had rejected years ago because they didn't feel right, and I felt I did not need them anyway. I decided I would order them over the internet from Pharmacy2U. That later proved to be a disaster. I had set up the account years before, but I did not have a linkage number from my GP's surgery. When I later phoned them up for this linkage number, I was told that I didn't need one. Well that was that. No linkage meant no drug delivery. I then unsubscribed from Pharmacy2U and deleted all the emails I had received from them over the years. As usual I would receive no drugs. Such is the NHS, a misfit organisation. And the nurses are on strike again over back pay.
January 19th, 2023...Unusually I received three deliveries today, including my statin prescription from my local chemist, according to the label on the package. I assume that drugs are not delivered by a third party. This is the first prescription I have received in at least 2.5 years. According to the British Heart Foundation 27,000 people per month missed out on blood pressure pills, whilst thousands more failed to get treatment to lower their cholesterol level. Half a million people in the UK, failed to start treatment for the prevention of heart attacks and strokes.
October 2nd, 2023 saw Professor's Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman awarded the Nobel prize for Medicine, for the development of mRNA vaccines used to fight Covid-19. Research is now underway to discover its usefulness in the fight against cancer and other illnesses.
WC Mariochom Włocławek: A Plague Cross So what is the next deadly virus. Virologists think it's the Nipah virus carried in fruit bats. The virus infects people in southern India and Indo China. They are infected by eating foods contaminated with fruit bat droppings. There is an 80% fatality rate. It attacks the brain and respiratory system and can take up to 45 days for symptoms to appear. As of March 2021 there is currently no vaccine. Survivors can suffer from a changed personality
The one thing you notice about this Covid-19 blog, is that precious little happens during February 2020, by HMG that is. During that month the prime minister was absent from five COBR or COBRA (Cabinet Office Briefing Room A) meetings, that deal with emergency matters. Bearing in mind that it takes two weeks for the symptoms of Covid-19 to become apparent, if at all, this shows a remarkable lack of urgency by government. The UK lockdown comes two weeks after the London stockmarket crash, a clear indicator that HMG was pushed into action over Covid-19 by the media. There is one factor which I simply do not understand. The authorities in the PRC made several attempts to muzzle the local research and medical staff in Wuhan. Why do that, when by doing so you ban any preventative and containment measures, and that by maintaining this stance, you ensure that the infection spreads across the PRC and the rest of the world, making a gagging order irrelevant. This sounds like the confused act of a person suffering from severe guilt. However, this is not the end of the story. The Wuhan Institute of Virology is believed to contain about 1500 potentially lethal viruses. During this period the centre was engaged in a $3.7 million research project financed by the United States National Institute of Health, during which P2 biohazard suits were worn instead of the higher standard P4, whilst working with bats or pigs. Is this merely a conspiracy?
It's plainly obvious to me that people living in densely populated towns and cities are more likely to get infected by a disease than those living in detached properties in the countryside. That beggars the question, 'should we demolish all non-detached homes?' Those remaining would be made zero carbon, and be fitted with air filters. There are of course at least two outstanding questions. Rehousing billions of people, using traditional materials, is going to increase CO2 levels enormously. In addition, from a tourist's point of view, Rome, Vienna, Paris, etcetera, would simply not look and feel the same. But it is clear to me that something drastic has to be done. Most homes are not earthquake proof, whilst bedrooms are too small, resulting in low oxygen levels harmful to the brain. It is time that scientists, architects and factory built home manufacturers got together to produce designs of cheap, quick to produce homes for families, as opposed to the irresponsible social experiment that has made the lives of millions of people totally meaningless. Based upon current construction methods and materials, replacing our existing housing stock with something far more futuristic, will plainly never happen unless it can be made more cheaply, quicker and to a higher standard. Research into building structures on the Moon, may well provide the answer, namely that of 3D printing. To maintain social distancing, all retailing should be on the internet where possible, with a government body to ensure that only high quality goods were sold on our intranet. We must be self supporting when it comes to the need for basic foods. We must adopt modern agricultural technology in order to reduce manpower and land usage. We must switch to the production of artificial meats and hydroponically produced vegetables. Homes must produce their own food, energy and fresh water. Social distancing must be improved through the sole use of taxi-vans. Buses, commuter trains, manned taxis and trams would be scrapped.
The environment would be improved by the creation of additional nature reserves. Like the goose in York railway station, we must all learn to accept our place in the natural order of things. The production of plastic and tobacco products must cease. HMG should promote a science based society, with scientists and their inventions portrayed in murals on public buildings. With increasing use of automation and artificial intelligence, a four day week should be created. People should be recruited and trained to handle emergency situations such as a pandemic, in order to ensure that our economy and way of life are not crippled again. And of course there must be more investment in the NHS. At the start of this pandemic the NHS had six ICU beds per one hundred thousand people, whilst Germany had twenty-nine. This pandemic clearly shows the distrust governments have for one another. HMG refuses to use any other contact-tracing app but its own, which is still weeks away, during which many people will die. Is this justifiable? HMG must therefore strive for the creation of a WT at the earliest opportunity. In the UK, there was no referendum for women's lib and casual divorce, no referendum for gay rights and gay marriage, which has created so much distrust between people that they cannot make friends, no referendum on monetarism, which involved the loss of millions of key skills, processed materials and high wages. To many people, the government's social engineering programme was a stab in the back. It will soon be time for a referendum on a technocracy. Are you up to it, or will the British establishment's mentality prevail?
I can say without a doubt that this pandemic will be a lesson to all terrorist groups. Just as imperialist forces were defeated by the Japanese during the second world war, which encouraged south Asia nations to strive for independence, so government mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic will convince terrorist groups that their time has at last come. And time is definitely running out. It also beggars the question, will there be a public enquiry in the UK about how HMG handled the affair. MI5 and MI6 failed to warn the government about the infection in Wuhan, whilst they also failed to provide the necessary contact-tracing software for smart phones (4G mobile phones), which I assumed they had for decades. As of 29-04-20 this software, requested by NHSX, will be produced by GCHQ (Government Communications Headquarters), Cheltenham, UK. The telephone based system will be ready by May 13th, 2020. Testing on the Isle of Wight took weeks. By now the stockmarket indices have recovered half their fall, and are unlikely to move either way for the next year. There's nothing else to invest in, with bank and bond rates at less than one per cent, except gold. Investors can at last see how this pandemic can be defeated. All it takes is an intelligent determined government to mass produce ventilators and medical black box pre-ventilators using raspberry pie and open software, plus persuade enough people to put contact-tracing apps on their mobile phones, and the pandemic will be contained if enough 'virologists' are deployed in the field, assuming of course that we can get a vaccine or cure in time. And of course we would have to persuade the general public to use it. That may prove harder than it sounds. Measles is now on the rise because parents are either too bone idle to get their children immunized, or because they are worried about possible side effects. Fake news about this subject, on the internet, is winding up governments and the medical profession.
WC Stanislaw.bochnak: A Plague Doctor in the Middle Ages You may well believe that the rule of law should be allowed to take its course. When it comes to HMG, what crimes have ministers, senior civil servants and advisors committed?
APATHY: ...
HMG did nothing during the six weeks from January 30th (WHO PHEIC) to March 23rd (UK lockdown start).
HMG failed to close airports and seaports (harbours) to passengers.
HMG failed to institute disinfecting of shipping containers and crates entering UK.
HMG failed to stop UK citizens going on foreign holidays.
HMG failed to impose 14 day quarantine on those entering country.
HMG failed to tell infected people to go to A&E, instead being told to stay at home, making later treatment more difficult.
HMG belittled the outbreak by simply telling people to wash their hands for twenty seconds.INCOMPETENCE:...
HMG stopped track & trace of infected people on March 12th.
HMG directed infected vulnerable people from hospitals to care centres, where they infected elderly residents. One third of deaths believed to be from care homes in UK as a result.
HMG failed to set up manufacturing facilities for PPE, drugs, ventilators, etc., within the NHS, before the pandemic and withdrawal from EU.ARROGANCE:...
HMG failed to get track & trace software from PRC, South Korea, Germany, Singapore or Apple/Google.
HMG failed to get advisors from PRC or South Korea.
HMG failed to work to pandemic standards from WHO, PRC and South Korea. Also failed to work to PPE design standards and from list of approved manufacturers, assuming that was available from WHO. They insisted that manufacturers come to them rather than HMG reps visit approved manufacturers, resulting in dubious trade deals.DECEPTION:...
HMG lied about the availability of PPE to NHS staff.
HMG failed to use sufficient test kits to detect infected people and people who have been infected, contrary to what was being claimed. It later emerged that two test kits were being used per person.
HMG staff failed to conform to the government's own advice and stay at home.This beggars the question, what charges can be brought, and what would be the likely outcome? Apathy, incompetence, arrogance...forget it, for they are not covered in law. As for deception, these references have been withdrawn from the Theft Act. Some NHS workers are taking HMG to court on its failure to provide Personal Protective Equipment, but the chances of putting this clique on trial for the manslaughter or murder of around sixty thousand people, is remote. However, it must be tried. The reason is because many countries at this moment in time are considering doing exactly the same as HMG, most with a far lower infection rate, whilst India is considerably higher. I am of course referring to herd immunity. Many governments have decided that the economic cost of fighting Covid-19 is simply too great. Hundreds of thousands must die in order to create a natural barrier to the disease. The more people that have natural immunity, the less chance there is of Covid-19 (Sars-Cov-2) passing from one person to another. There is a danger that this mentality will lead to a growing contempt for human life, leading to genocide through the adoption of negative eugenics, namely the elimination of biologically and socially inferior people. Is this or is it not a crime, to knowingly let people die, in order to save the global capitalist system and their personal investment portfolios? Is it a crime against humanity? To say that it amounts to misconduct in a public office, would be an understatement. If nothing is done, then the next time there is a pandemic, the politicians will look at what governments are doing now, and implement that policy with vigour. And next time the infection and lethality rates are likely to be much higher, say 40%. It may not be possible to charge these politicians with anything by then, as by then common law may apply, making it acceptable. By then the only route for action would probably be for politician's constituents to petition their removal from office. However, even that maybe too late, for the loss of 40% of the global population is highly likely to result in a disruption in the global balance of power, probably resulting in global thermonuclear war.
In the UK, an MP has to be convicted of a criminal offence, such as fiddling their expenses, or have been suspended from parliament for at least 14 calendar days, to lose their seat in parliament. If the sentence is greater than one year then the MP is recalled (sacked). If the sentence is less, then the constituents are invited to vote for the MP's recall. The vote for recall must exceed 10% of the registered electorate. An individual cannot ask for the MP's recall, as this is done by the speaker of the House of Commons. It cannot be carried out within six months of the next general election, and neither during a court appeal. However, the general public can petition parliament. To get a debate on the subject requires 100,000 signatures. In order to institute a trial in the case of heavy loss of life in this pandemic, would probably require the services of the International Criminal Court at the Hague, Netherlands. Since this crime is thought to involve the implementation of herd immunity on an international scale, and also where the UK police appear to be reluctant to investigate. However, one is then confronted with the problem of immunity from prosecution. There are two versions. Functional immunity applies to people who perform certain functions of state, and they remain immune from prosecution even after that person has left office, unless that state no longer exists. Personal immunity applies to the office of state that they hold, usually the home, defence or foreign office. Those considered immune from prosecution are head of state (monarch, president), head of government (prime minister), foreign and defence ministers. Officials can be tried for crimes of a personal capacity committed whilst in office, or crimes committed before or after being in office, once they have left office. It is now generally agreed that functional immunity does not protect an official from international crimes, including crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide. A policy of herd immunity maybe considered genocide. Where it can be shown that governments acted together (conspired) to promote herd immunity, that would amount to an international crime. The Nuremberg trials of Nazi leaders was only possible as the state no longer existed and because of the enormity of the crimes. To put the leaders of many countries on trial due to their failure to contain Covid-19 and provide adequate health care to those infected, is debatable. The will amongst law enforcement agencies and members of the legal professions, has to be unanimous and concerted. However, it may be possible to institute an international public inquiry at the UN or elsewhere. And the sooner the better. To do nothing, merely lays down the seeds for apathy, incompetence, and slaughter during the next inevitable pandemic. As of November 2020 police investigations appear to be limited to individual infected people travelling, care home management and misuse of hand-outs in Northern Ireland. The response is pitiful. Are leading members of the government unaccountable? If there is no accountability, then there is no meaningful democracy. Just simply an old boy network.
WC CDC: Plague Bubo on Legs So what does willful misconduct in public office actually mean? It has to consist of the following:
I...Failure to act.
HMG failed to take any significant action on Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) for six weeks from January 30th... WHO second statement on Covid-19. WHO Director-General declares Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). 170 people dead across Asia.II...Persons accused must be aware that act can be construed as misconduct with reckless indifference.
The prime minister was absent from Downing Street from February 15th, spending almost two weeks at Chevening with his partner, and failed to attend five COBR meetings. Those COBR meetings appear to have accomplished nothing.III...It must be an abuse of public trust.
HMG is pursuing a policy of herd immunity, but not admitting it.IV...It must be serious enough to call for condemnation and punishment.
Loss of many lives is serious.V...The act harms public interest.
Removal of some lockdown restrictions puts lives of general public at risk whilst trace systems are still not at optimal efficiency.VI...The consequences of this act were foreseeable.
Reports from South Korea, USA, etc. indicated that removing lockdown restrictions was reckless, resulting in much loss of life.VII...Motive must be unacceptable.
To protect the global economy and personal investment portfolio, and ensure further political party contributions.VIII...No appropriate statutory offence to describe nature of misconduct.
Mass murder, crimes against humanity.Since the legal proceedings would be time consuming, with many lives at stake in the meantime, it would be preferential for the CPS (Crown Prosecution Service) to issue an immediate warning that all governments would take notice of. Or perhaps the warning could come from the International Court of Justice? It is also my assertion that some members of the inner cabinet, and National Health Service, are unfit for office, at the very least.
So what could the International Court of Justice achieve? The aims would be as follows:
1...The need to safeguard life, before maintaining social and economic stability through the furtherance of the global and/or national economy.
2...A plan to coordinate the shutting down and restart of the global economy.
3...How to maintain cooperation and effective communications between the UN (United Nations), WHO (World Health Organization), CDC (Centre for Disease Control & Prevention), and the nations of the world, during the lead up to, and during a pandemic.
4...Approval by the nations of the world listing scenarios, equipment needed including pharmaceuticals, stockpile quantities and locations, means of distribution, alert system methods of communication to be managed by the WHO. Also means of treatment to be agreed, to be monitored by the CDC.
5...Creation of International Rescue for the rescue of people trapped or in need of urgent evacuation or relief from tsunamis, hurricanes (typhoons, cyclones), earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, sink holes, plus the failure of bridges, dams and major buildings, mines collapse, etc.
Clearly section one is for the courts to handle, whilst the remaining four sections are probably for the UN. It is essential that section one be concluded ASAP (As Soon As Possible) since time is costing lives. Maybe it could impose a time limit on such a policy, compelling governments, research centres and corporations to engage in meaningful collaboration in research to get a cure, vaccine, PEMM, ultimately leading to a tricorder. I say this because there is no clear answer to the problem. Which is the most evil, a government protecting the lives of thousands of vulnerable people through lockdown, knowing that the nation's economy and the finances of millions of people will be adversely affected, possibly leading to mental disorder, domestic abuse, war, etc., or alternatively scrapping lockdown to safeguard the national and global economies, knowing that the decision will lead to more Covid-19 deaths? Which is the best political system, a multi-party democracy that promotes capitalism, or a world technocracy that would strive towards the creation of an egalitarian world by scrapping capitalism and money? It's time that this madness be brought to an end, and if a WT can be created through the International Court of Justice, rather than a long winded and uncertain series of referendums, then so much the better. It would also be the gateway to the long awaited green revolution. Is this a case for Amnesty International and similar bodies?
When I mention war, I am of course referring to riots across the USA triggered by the death of George Floyd, whilst in the custody of four police officers, and the decision by the PRC government to set up security offices in Hong Kong in direct violation of the PRC/UK one state two systems approach on hand over, on July 1st, 1997. The UK's PM is now seeking ways of being less economically dependent upon the PRC. Conservative monetarist ideology is crumbling away some more.
There is of course no way that the British establishment would permit such a trial in the UK, and even if it occurred the case would simply be watered down to high crimes and misdemeanors. This case reminds me of the Nazis final solution. After exterminating the Hungarian Jews, the SS officer in charge simply went back to his desk job in Berlin. Hard to take in isn't it?
What reforms should be applied to the WHO? The WHO is an NGO, an offshoot of the UN. The only powers it has are those given to it by UN member states, and there aren't many. The main accusation is that the WHO did not inform governments about Covid-19 early enough and vociferously enough. Well let's see. Just how do you wake up the governments of the world from their slumber? You first start with a global announcement, to all governments, all media companies and hopefully all important individuals, confirming a decision made by a WHO committee, by email and letter on headed note paper. The letter should include blunt details of the problem, how dangerous it can get, how to delay it, how to defeat it, where the stockpiles can be found, where further advice can be found (equipment standards, approved manufacturers, etc.) on the WHO web site and elsewhere. As for letters and emails to governments, always insist upon an immediate reply. If there is no reply within five days, then investigate. After ten days, start with mild insults, etc. Currently 29-05-20, the warnings about planned lockdowns leading to a new wave of infections, is simply too mild. Looking at a chart, I can see that the daily death toll for the UK will be near zero in seven weeks time (July 17th), although one week later it appears to have leveled off. Something appears to be amiss. Could it be long distance lorry drivers from abroad, bonking super spreading prostitutes at UK ports? However, if the lockdown is reversed then we will be back where we were in March, faced with more lockdowns until a cure, vaccine or personal electronic medical monitor (PEMM) comes along. The thing is, that one of these three could be just around the corner, and if we screw things up, we could be in lock down far longer than originally predicted. Just how the WHO or any other organisation can influence governments apparently manned by complete idiots, I simply do not know. When it comes down to it, WHO personnel behave like politicians. They talk eloquently, as if they have all the time in the world. An obsessive, compulsive kick arse mentality is totally alien to them.
Our political parties run rings around the electorate, employing well worn means of deception. This is not fake news. When you watch TV news, you are looking at fake government. Like other western nations, the citizens of the UK don't live in a real democracy. Our politicians are just front men for powerful forces, determined to maintain the status quo, determined to protect capitalism at any cost. They can be as ruthless as that dentist in Damascus. Governments across the western world want to raise the lockdown, but the lockdown is not a cure. It only provides time for the immune system to rid their body of Covid-19. Their bodies are still vulnerable, and no doubt there are still people out there with Covid-19 permanently embedded within their bodies without their hosts knowledge. In addition, animals all around us probably have it too, ready to pass it on to us, just like that bat in Wuhan. Since we can't eradicate Covid-19 completely, and since repeated use of a cure will wear down our immune system, there is as far as I know only one other line of defence. We must bio-engineer our immune system, to be as capable as that of the Great White Shark and other similarly advanced creatures. And not just the immune system, but the entire human body, although I doubt at this time that anything can be done to enhance the human brain. Now why on Earth would we want to increase our intelligence? Eventually we create a new species out of ourselves, homotechnicus. It will of course make us almost immortal, and as stated elsewhere on this website, you will have to agree to the 'switching off' of your reproductive organs in order to prevent a population explosion. An internationally recognised organisation needs to be set up to manage and finance this project. The cost will probably exceed that of manned missions to the Moon and Mars, but we haven't got forever to do it. Even if a vaccine for Covid-19 is found, it's only a matter of time before a similar threat emerges from another virus or coronavirus. To bio-engineer the human immune system et cetera, would probably take half a century and one million personnel. The main problem will be in training enough people to do the job. Life in the future is likely to be even more hectic, with people travelling across the globe in four hours say. In such a scenario, the foundations for a pandemic could be created in less than a day. We owe it to future generations to do this.
WC CDC: Gangrene due to Plague What developed societies in extreme latitudes are facing, is similar to what other peoples in third world countries have faced all their lives, from ebola, lassa, dengue, malaria, yellow fever, zika, tuberculosis, et cetera. We are also slowly learning what it is like to be an endangered species. Not from loss of habitat and poaching, but from our own stupidity. Hands up, who started this pandemic? Overpopulation of the human race is the cause of much of the Earth's ills. As our population increases, we expand into territories where we simply don't belong. There are about two hundred viruses that present an active threat to us right now, and about half a million that we know precious little about. Without a world technocracy there will be no population control, no prevention of poaching on an international scale, no ban on the sale of wild species and their products, leading to our inevitable doom. Deadly virus species are being found all the time by virologists. You don't hear about them on the news, because they haven't started a pandemic. When you see the apathy, incompetence and arrogance within governments, you just know that its only a matter of time before one of these critters has your name on it. Here are a few on Wikipedia that may be looking out for you.
Governments around the world meet regularly to discuss environmental protection, but it's all talk and little action. There are now calls from many organisations for a major change in attitude after the pandemic, and institute a green revolution. The United Nations is now calling for a 'Race to Zero' in carbon emissions by 2050, which it wants endorsed at its COP26 (annual United Nations Conference of the Parties) international climate change conference in Glasgow, Scotland in November 1st to 12th, 2021. Now postponed for one year due to the pandemic. To me, the problem is clearly political. It's clear that governments are signing up to herd immunity because they cannot see beyond capitalism, and they know that if they don't do it altogether, their exports will be held up at the destination's local seaport, airport, or lorry terminal, due to their lockdown. Politicians like that don't give a damn about the environment. Beware of politicians who reply to your questions with platitudes. Psychology can be a deadly weapon.
They worship that pagan idol called capitalism, to the detriment of everything else. I therefore conclude that most of these politicians don't possess the necessary empathy and vision to see a pollution free world without money, and make it so. Where you've got clearly visible stinking rivers of garbage in the third world, and governments in the developed world determined to shift their polluting manufacturing industries and waste abroad, you just know that this 'out of sight, out of mind' mentality is incapable of fulfilling such a dream. This dream, this vision, this wonder, will only come about through a world technocracy. Can the United Nations, International Court of Justice, The Hague, Netherlands, or a global referendum, make it so?
The alternative is of course protest. That is taking place at the moment with the death of African-American George Floyd at the hands of the police in Minneapolis-St. Paul, USA on May 26th, 2020. In a situation so grave, that has gone on for centuries, from the time of slavery, forget the promises being made by politicians. There is only one course of action. You must replace your entire constitution with a new one...a technocracy, and pension off all existing politicians. You also have to replace the military industrial complex with a science based global community, and pray that the rest of the world follows suit. To accomplish this, you have to bring central government to a standstill, probably for months, by surrounding the capitol. You've got to stand together, stand firm and stand for no nonsense. These politicians have got to realise that they are no longer wanted. The best peaceful demonstrators I've seen over the decades are the Japanese, with their bamboo poles and body armour. It will get bloody, and probably result in civil war. The Pentagon and its defence contractors, ain't gonna give an inch. This is the inevitable outcome of living in a trigger happy nation. It could well get as bloody as the civil war in Syria, but their will be no improvement in the quality of life of the majority until it is won. Cadets at West Point Academy should realise that they may hold the key to this inevitable conflict, as cadets did during the revolution in Iran. Convert the USA, and you will probably convert the rest of the developed world. The alternative is to stay a slave on subsistence wages, with no prospect of improving your life. And it doesn't matter what your skin colour is. Don't think whites are any better off. In an age of robotics and AI, we are all potential targets for permanent redundancy. A few decades ago Reaganomics (monetarism) made millions unemployed, and the majority did not protest. Next will come a more permanent solution, the elimination of billions. You just know that these politicians, crazy scientists and military with their avarice and megalomania will wipe us out, since in an automated AI world we're surplus to requirements. Maybe Covid-19 was an attempt to do that. It had a high infection rate, but low mortality. There will be another pandemic, if protests now fail. The mortality rate is likely to be 40%. Where will the potential protestors be then.....in their coffins? Do you really want the governments of the world to continue putting capitalism before people's lives? Turning your back and going home at the end of a day's protest, will get you nowhere. Instructions for non-violent political protest can be found on the internet. In my opinion the WHO should have managed this pandemic, with governments financing their decisions. Expertise should have come from the PRC, South Korea and Taiwan. The pandemic should never have been made a political issue. As for the cost, that may take years to work out. Governments never took the workload on medical staff seriously. The group action claims from medical staff for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) is likely to be huge. But by then these apathetic and incompetent politicians responsible for the deaths of thousands will be long gone from the political scene. The cost of finding replacement medical staff will be astronomical if medical science does not transform medical care.
WC National Library of Medicine: The Plague Pit Of course all this beggars the question, 'what is the world's news media doing about all this, because it appears that there are many governments out there that are equally as apathetic and incompetent over PPE procurement and mismanagement of lockdowns. In the UK in recent years I have noticed politicians and news reporters concentrating on trivia, whilst important issues are being ignored. Is this deliberate? Like most employers the media has switched to contracted employment, leading to a hire, fire and forget mentality which creates a young poorly trained and inexperienced workforce, hardly the basis for investigative journalism. They are too afraid to report the truth if it doesn't fall in with corporate policy. It's led to an electorate largely ignorant of the facts, particularly when so few people are buying newspapers, either because they're working on short term contracts, with no set commuting routine to a newsagent, or unemployed with no incentive to get up early in the morning to buy one, or they get their news from the internet, which is biased towards the needs of Americans. There are at least seven national newspapers in the UK; Independent, Times, Guardian, Telegraph, Express, Mirror and Sun, plus five television news organisations BBC News, ITN (Independent Television News), RT (Russia Today), Sky and Al Jazeera. When it comes to retailing, there is no British website that competes with Amazon and eBay. Should retailers and news media outlets amalgamate, and if so how could you compel PC users to view them? The answer is of course to get the nation's IT industry to come up with an ideal operating system and browser. Considering the economic state of the nation, this is something HMG should be promoting assuming that it wanted an informed electorate. The UK seriously lacks behind the US in IT. For how much longer can we survive in an IT dominated world? There are simply too many factors that compel me to say that our yokel political system must go.
I cannot help thinking that there has to be some kind of meaningful mournful ceremony of this event, on an annual basis, on world health day, April 7th, or another day designated CV-19 day. You perhaps might like to consider the release of Chinese lanterns, one for each deceased, floating down the River Thames, past parliament, as a reminder to our elected representatives of the failure of our democratic system, and the need for a technocracy. I may continue this blog, who knows, for you are my captive audience whilst the lockdown mentality drags on. I don't think I've been out more than a dozen times in the last three years. First the lockdown then the bus service is reduced due to lack of drivers, then the rail workers go on strike. I stood at the bus stop last Saturday night, only to be told by a little old dear walking by that the bus stop was not in use due to a diversion caused by road works. So my advice is, stay at home, do the gardening, and read this website......please. And no canoodling during those boring nights watching repeats on the telly, for we don't want a population explosion, do we? At least not amongst humans.
The Covid-19 pandemic was officially declared over by the WHO on May 5th, 2023, just six days after the Covid-19 app was shut down in England and Wales. It was now no longer a global health emergency. In January 2021 100,000 people were dieing per week. This reduced to 3,500 on April 24th, 2023. Covid-19 killed at least seven million people worldwide. On June 13th 2023 the Covid-19 enquiry began, on which date it was stated that 227,321 had died from it in the UK. Far lower than had initially been anticipated. That is 1.5% of 68,000,000=1,020,000. Could AI based management have done better? Next stop Covid-19 variants Arcturus, Eris or bird flu?
In September 2023 I joined the 'Our Future Health' project, designed to find solutions to diseases like cancer, diabetes and stroke. It was the second time they had approached me. I went down to Boots pharmacy and had my weight, height and waist measured. A blood sample was taken from my arm, so that research labs around the world could build up a DNA data base. No sooner had I done that than I had more blood taken from the other arm by the NHS at an NHS health care centre. This was followed by a Covid-19 booster injection (Omicron BA.4-5) at a more local pharmacy, and finally a flu jab at my GP's surgery. I was coming up to my 75th birthday, at which point the NHS would not be prepared to give me any further health checks, so I decided to some how twist their arm before the deadline. There was also a nagging feeling that I had prostate cancer.
December 4th, 2023...The latest apparent threat to the human race was again coming from the PRC. This threat is called "white lung pneumonia". Symptoms are fever, cough, fatigue, green mucus and shortness of breath. It has so far not spread from China. The WHO is still waiting for test results. History appears to be repeating itself.
Throughout December 2023 the UK's Covid-19 Pandemic enquiry in London continued. There were warnings of Covid-19 variants around the world, together with a zombie virus found in deer in the mid-west of the United States, which could spread to humans.
April 2024 came warnings that an outbreak of monkeypox in the Democratic Republic of Congo could go global, with the detection of a new strain called clade 1b. Located in Kamituga, a small mining town, it has a 10% kill rate, 30% of whom are sex workers.
August 2014 WHO declares mpox (monkeypox) a global health emergency. H5N1 influenza, otherwise known as bird flu, is also causing concern, as it spreads across nations from one species to another. Detected in drinking water, it is only a matter of time before a variant comes along that's lethal and easily transmittable. Will we have a lockdown all over again? Businesses like bars and restaurants made bankrupt. Millions more people developing arthritis due to lack of exposure to sunshine and vitamin D3. Society frozen in time for years. Three east coast states in the USA are also experiencing problems with West Nile virus in birds and eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) in pets. It's only a matter of time before some virus comes along that cannot be defeated. We must build a billion biomes and live in them in extended family groups, producing our own food. By reducing the global transportation of food, we are reducing the number of vectors and hence risk of infection. Biomes will also segregate the human race from nature, again reducing the chance of infection from animals and vice-versa. In a world without employment, due to AI and androids, this is an alternative. But what's really needed is a world technocracy to make it happen. When will the global referendum take place?
In October 2024 I got my RSV, Covid-19 and flu jab for the aged from the NHS. The following month the USG House Covid-19 panel released its report.
