On Test counts : I believe that some of the libmob army that occupies and controls our country

Just as I believe that some of the cockups to do with Universal Credit cases are lefty employees deliberately trying to make the Tories look bad.

@john in cheshire The libmob went crazy calling a daily Express photo about Brighton beach crowds a ‘lie cos it’s a photo from last years Bank Holiday’
doh yes all newpaper photos are manipulated to build narratives
but by accusing the Express of using a photo from last year
.. libmob have lost the plot.
The photo guy was able to show that photo was really from this weekend cos the ice-cream shop webcam has exactly the same cars on.
He doesn’t say that the cameraman by taking the photo looking directly down the promenade has made a shot which has a lot of people in and makes those people look much closer together than they are.
Hacked Off founders Hugh Grant and Brian Cathcart were among thousands retweeting posts accusing the Daily Express of faking a front-page picture

All the main TV & radio broadcasters leading with the blood chilling findings of #Panorama last night. All except BBC Radio 4. Still no mention of the shocking revelations made by their own colleagues in last nights documentary. What the hell is going on at the Today programme?
The response from the BBC so far is silence and we all know that BBC silence = refusal to acknowledge = guilt.
This really does need raising in Parliament, they are supposed to be our National news broadcaster not the organ of the hard-left labour activist brigade.
They keep going lower and lower, it has to end with their demotion or demise.
The most effective government action would be to move the 16.30 Coronavirus Update to ITV. Such a simple action would deliver a monumental slap and give the public a much needed confidence boost.

Northern Ireland death toll rises by nine
A further nine people have died with Covid-19 in hospitals in Northern Ireland, latest daily figures show.
It takes the total number of deaths to 347.
Northern Ireland health minister Robin Swann said the nation “remains on a knife edge” and urged people to stay home.
So just nine deaths across NI, yet the province” remains on a knife edge”. Over dramatic, or what?
Surely more than nine people die in NI every day.
What’s the betting that all nine had pre-existing medical conditions, were frail and elderly or were a combination of both.

Liz’s story: A queue which snaked around the car park
[Photo of a racial minority member here.]
Liz Sargent, 65, from Shepton Mallet in Somerset, embarked on a 40-mile round trip to Bristol Airport to get tested after developing Covid-19 symptoms only to find herself waiting in a queue.
[Liz has a big smile and does not look like a virus victim to me.]
She said: “After 30 minutes we realised exactly how long that queue was
[‘cos we are not very bright? or fibbing?]
– there must have been more than 100 cars waiting in a queue which snaked all around the car park.
“Then people wearing high-vis jackets appeared and started going round cars with a sign saying the testing facility was over capacity and to make an appointment for another day.”
After trying to book again she was told the next available was on Friday, her seventh day of self-isolation and outside of the testing window.
“I was left feeling angry, disappointed and very frustrated by this mismanagement and waste of time,” she said.
”
[It is 198.3 miles from Shepton Mallet to Peterborough

yes, especially so, when tbomk [ that’s ‘to the best of my knowledge’ roughly equiv. (that’s equivalent, Fed) to AFAIK ‘as far as I know’, Fed, – I hope you have stopped twitching now 😉 🙂 ] you have to make an appointment for a Covid-19 test. You cannot just turn up and queue.
Another case of “there is no support from the Government” , and “the Government needs to help”.
Ha ! this time its from Obesity Uk, – its been highlighted that a third of sufferers of Covid19 are obese. Whether its true or not, a spokeswoman has said ‘we need more help from the Government’. To do what exactly ????
God on a bike, every whinger from the dancing flea organisation to Posh Spice’s vanity project wants a handout from the government, but its really me, the tax payer.
Well, if these organisations/charities cant get a handle on their affairs, then they shouldn’t be in existence at all. In Obesity UK, there should be only one mantra – stop the deliveries from Deliveroo and stay away from the fridge.
The BBC seem very adept at finding whingers..I don’t watch or listen to much these days expect contribute here 🙂 but I usually have to switch off pretty quickly due to whingers and whiners…or of course the usual BBC narrative

“The series said it wanted to promote “gender equality and a level playing field” within motorsport.”
Bollox, 50% of the best drivers (men) are effectively being eliminated because of their sex.
In the good old days lap times were recorded, the fastest candidates progressed, everybody else went home.
If some of the rejects were women, so be it.
This is the same policy that promoted feeble bodied pussy munchers like Cressida Dick beyond their competence.
Despite her lack of competence risking the lives of real police officers.
When John McEnroe stated that Serena Williams would be ranked 700 he was wrong.

81,611 tests in 24 hours
Yes what an utter utter failure this Tory government is
Boris has murdered all these 26,000 victims himself
He and the press briefing team should lie on the floor
so the #GotchaGang can spit on him
If we had a Labour government
80 million tests would have been done in the last 24 hours.
Crikey. PM says more than 81,000 tests were performed yesterday.
Based on that daily increase it sounds like Matt Hancock will have got very close to hitting his 100,000 target today.
Credit where credit is due, the expansion of UK testing has been pretty rapid.
I think the virus came from one of the laboratories in Wuhan.
I don’t believe it came from eating bats.
Imagine if there were several world epidemics/pandemics (as we’ve had from Wuhan) but that they had originated in Porton Down where our bio labs are.
Then, our politicians told you was because the locals were eating hedgehogs and the virus(‘s) all came because of that.
Would you believe them.
The Wuhan virus labs must have Mickey Mouse security and the virus(‘s) got out because of their lackadaisical procedures.
Surely it wasn’t unleashed on purpose!
I don’t know how true it is but I’m seeing conspiracy posts saying the people working in the virus labs of Wuhan have all now disappeared.
I’ve seen many posts giving reasons why this is a man constructed virus.
There have been several fiction books predicting virus escapes from the Wuhan virus labs.
For me it’s a case of Occams Razor.
It appears so obvious.
I’ll stick to Eddy’s Bic one blade guess, if you don’t mind:
What’s the most likely scenario
A: The Chinese are utter geniuses that can create viruses in a laboratory, dispite them not having invented anything original since the umbrella 3,000 years ago.
OR
B. They’re as thick as pig muck, and think it’s clever to eat every animal on earth, and having worked their way through the menu, eventually hit upon the brilliant idea of mangy bat broth…
Now ask yourself which would the Chinese prefer you believe..
I wonder if one of the questioners on Hancock’s half hour (Boris’ half hour doesn’t work) will ask for an apology because only 99,999 tests (or however many) were carried out instead of the 100,000
Obviously the BBC won’t be happy as it looks like Hancock will be very close indeed to his testing target. The BBC thought he would be way away from it.
So, what does our George ask us at 6pm ?????
“is it the number of tests that are important or who we are testing”
I kid you not. So now, after all the hissy fits from the BBC libmob about the 100k target, the numbers weren’t that important after all .
We want a lockdown, and we want it now…
Shut down the schools, teaching unions cry…
ventilators vital, how many have we got, minister? Are you including substandard private sector machines in that figure, minister?
ventilators not a problem, so why all the panic? we don’t ask…
PPE almost/maybe/possibly running short, say some unbiased people…
4 flights full of PPE arrived today, we won’t be telling anyone, but what about the carbon footprint?…
Nightingale hospitals are empty, we ask ‘are they a waste of money, how many extra journalists could we have had for that money?’….
UK covid19 deaths forecast to be highest in the universe, says Surkeer, who is widely regarded as an expert inside the BBC…
The Government are fixated with testing, why is this?
Will the minister apologise for the glorious weather we have had, which has made 3 weeks of lockdown insufferable, especially in London?…
and in 6 months time…
When will the schools re-open, minister?… It is absolutely vital they open on Friday so St. Greta can organise a pupils strike…
Why are British children achieving lower academic standards than European Union countries, minister?…
Why did the government over-react to the pandemic, and crash the economy? We ask Rishi why hasn’t he apologised?…
Yesterday 102,467 people were tested, why is the government wasting 2,467 testing kits?…
Doob
100k tests ? Waste of time – wrong sort of test – doesn’t mean anything – everyone needs testing every day – too far to travel – too long to wait – every other country does it better – too expensive – wrong people being tested – not green enough – why can’t kits be recycled – what about pets ?
For those daft enough to watch BBC’s Question Time this evening you should know that they have on 3 socialists, one Tory and George Osborne. Osborne believes that if he undermines the conservatives on everything they say and do then one day he will be conservative PM.

I have a theory that we Englishmen and women control authority in a subtle way. We don’t riot or commit acts of violence, in the main ( unless the rats go over some undefined line), we just ignore them.

Another multi choice GEC exam question for Al Beeb employees ………………..
Law-breaking illegal, Bogus asylum seekers cross the English Channel because:
Select one answer only.
a) They want to serve in HM Forces to defend Great Britain.
b) The have always aspired to British Values, ways and laws.
c) They want free accommodation, health, education and income.
d) They are fleeing a cruel and oppressive European Union.
Maybe they want all these things and are proud to be here?
That’s sarcasm by the way.
I hope Mrs Patel is true to her word and stops the illegals from being brought here by the Border ferry service. But more that she deports all the illegals already here.
Or will my cynicism prove correct once again and nothing will actually be done?
john in cheshire
Forget The Border Farce that have been bobbing about the channel aboard their chocolate teapot using blustery words like “Intercepted” and “PPE”. Our government has thousands of Royal Marines and Sailors at their disposal that could have done the job ages ago. Unfortunately successive Home Sectaries have been to timid to act other than issue similar blustery words such as “Serious incidents” until now. Let’s witness our new Home Secretary protect the integrity of our borders ? How many has she sent back? Didn’t Boris warn that they would be returned ?
You’re so right and from the ex-navy types I’ve known, as well as the ex-army ones, they’d be only too ready, willing, happy and able to execute the role.
If we’d let our defence forces do their job the illegals would not only not be trying to come here, those already here would be fleeing for their lives. Common Purpose senior officers notwithstanding.
Defence being the operative word; that’s what they’re paid to do, that’s what they want to do, that’s what they should be allowed to do.
john in cheshire
Of course , our government could be ‘turning a blind eye’, what else could be the reason?
The more they let in, the more they will come, building up problems for the future when we will hear the often repeated platitude “lessons to be learned”. The Royal Navy and Royal Marines are watching and waiting …………..
I have posted this before , There is a war going on , a war between Al Beeb and the government. At present Al Beeb is winning the war. Not for long, for I detect that the public are beginning to see “The Emperor’s New Clothes”.
I don’t think al beeb are winning the war taffman, no chance!
The tide has turned massively in the last 4 months!????
As someone on here commented recently, al beeb are behaving like a cornered rat ???? at the moment
theleftwilleatitself
Yes, I posted something similar to “behaving like a cornered rat ” some time ago . Why hasn’t the government done something about it ? If everyone stopped paying the Telly Tax, the tax that robs from the poor to pay the rich, the war would be over.
Sweden , apparently, is a great country . The kind of country the BBC likes – in fact – any country is good apart from this one .
However – it seems that the idea Sweden had of not having a ‘ lock down ‘ sadly – and I mean sadly – has not led to a good outcome – with 2500 dead from covid related causes.
I’m sure friends here – better on the detail than me can do the numbers but I don’t think it has the makings of a happy story .
And – perhaps – May vindicate the lockdown strategy …..
Sweden is 10.5m people so UK is 6.5 times bigger
meaning UK sized Sweden would have 16,250 deaths
but we have 26K
So Sweden is doing better
but when you go into AllCauses death stats for the last month
Sweden clearly doesn’t have any deaths caused by delayed operations etc.
Which actually all it’s neighbours do
media just point out that for Covid deaths Sweden does worse than its neighbours.

At last all those diversity and equality officers will have something to do!
I can’t help but feel that if NHS Scotland or NHS Wales were to carry out similar surveys they would find that most staff affected by the virus were born in Scotland/Wales = “Shock horror, most virus casualties in Scotland are Scots, Boris to Blame”.
Interesting that the Cowardly useless incompetent Tories have introduced 5 tests for lifting lockdown – tests which will almost certainly never be met.
Reminds me of the 5 economic test Gordon Brown had for monetary union, which as most remember ended in disaster, and we never joined the Euro (or ERM and EMU).
Remember that PM in New Zeland wearing the hijab that the BBC loves
11 women from this video were arrested for saying no to forced hijab. Some are still in jail. Sadly, they received no solidarity from Western female politicians who wore hijab in the name of “respecting our culture” for the Ramadan. Why selective solidarity?#WhiteWednesdayshttps://t.co/uRzKbgXUWI
There are many disgusting things in this world, but few more so than Western so-called ‘progressives’ donning the hijab while their sistas in muslim countries are beaten, jailed and tortured for refusing to.

Liz Sargent, 65, from Shepton Mallet in Somerset, embarked on a 40-mile round trip to Bristol Airport to get tested after developing Covid-19 symptoms only to find herself waiting in a queue.
[Liz has a big smile and does not look like a virus victim to me.]
She said: “After 30 minutes we realised exactly how long that queue was
[‘cos we are not very bright? or fibbing?]
– there must have been more than 100 cars waiting in a queue which snaked all around the car park.
“Then people wearing high-vis jackets appeared and started going round cars with a sign saying the testing facility was over capacity and to make an appointment for another day.”
After trying to book again she was told the next available was on Friday, her seventh day of self-isolation and outside of the testing window.
“I was left feeling angry, disappointed and very frustrated by this mismanagement and waste of time,” she said.
”
[It is 198.3 miles from Shepton Mallet to Peterborough
Which is where Liz Sargeant lives.

yes, especially so, when tbomk [ that’s ‘to the best of my knowledge’ roughly equiv. (that’s equivalent, Fed) to AFAIK ‘as far as I know’, Fed, – I hope you have stopped twitching now 😉 🙂 ] you have to make an appointment for a Covid-19 test. You cannot just turn up and queue.

Another case of “there is no support from the Government” , and “the Government needs to help”.
Ha ! this time its from Obesity Uk, – its been highlighted that a third of sufferers of Covid19 are obese. Whether its true or not, a spokeswoman has said ‘we need more help from the Government’. To do what exactly ????
God on a bike, every whinger from the dancing flea organisation to Posh Spice’s vanity project wants a handout from the government, but its really me, the tax payer.
Well, if these organisations/charities cant get a handle on their affairs, then they shouldn’t be in existence at all. In Obesity UK, there should be only one mantra – stop the deliveries from Deliveroo and stay away from the fridge.

I think the virus came from one of the laboratories in Wuhan.
I don’t believe it came from eating bats.
Imagine if there were several world epidemics/pandemics (as we’ve had from Wuhan) but that they had originated in Porton Down where our bio labs are.
Then, our politicians told you was because the locals were eating hedgehogs and the virus(‘s) all came because of that.
Would you believe them.
The Wuhan virus labs must have Mickey Mouse security and the virus(‘s) got out because of their lackadaisical procedures.
Surely it wasn’t unleashed on purpose!
I don’t know how true it is but I’m seeing conspiracy posts saying the people working in the virus labs of Wuhan have all now disappeared.
I’ve seen many posts giving reasons why this is a man constructed virus.
There have been several fiction books predicting virus escapes from the Wuhan virus labs.
For me it’s a case of Occams Razor.
It appears so obvious.

OR
B. They’re as thick as pig muck, and think it’s clever to eat every animal on earth, and having worked their way through the menu, eventually hit upon the brilliant idea of mangy bat broth…

“You should have gone left, right, straight, back; why didn’t you take the M25, the North Circular, the gyratory system, the shortcut, the scenic route, the flyover, the underpass, the overpass, the bypass; you’re driving too fast, too slow; do you even know where we are, are we nearly there yet, why not; why did you buy this car, if you had a better job we could have bought a better car, why did I ever marry you?” etc…

Forget The Border Farce that have been bobbing about the channel aboard their chocolate teapot using blustery words like “Intercepted” and “PPE”. Our government has thousands of Royal Marines and Sailors at their disposal that could have done the job ages ago. Unfortunately successive Home Sectaries have been to timid to act other than issue similar blustery words such as “Serious incidents” until now. Let’s witness our new Home Secretary protect the integrity of our borders ? How many has she sent back? Didn’t Boris warn that they would be returned ?

Sweden , apparently, is a great country . The kind of country the BBC likes – in fact – any country is good apart from this one .
However – it seems that the idea Sweden had of not having a ‘ lock down ‘ sadly – and I mean sadly – has not led to a good outcome – with 2500 dead from covid related causes.
I’m sure friends here – better on the detail than me can do the numbers but I don’t think it has the makings of a happy story .
And – perhaps – May vindicate the lockdown strategy …..

Sweden is 10.5m people so UK is 6.5 times bigger

So Sweden is doing better
but when you go into AllCauses death stats for the last month
Sweden clearly doesn’t have any deaths caused by delayed operations etc.
Which actually all it’s neighbours do

I use my own judgement and common sense as to what to do. There’s a disease, therefore we shouldn’t mix. And that’s not rocket science. I shall continue to wear a mask and gloves, and if its for 6 months or a year or until there is a vaccine, then so be it. I shan’t blame anyone because they said this or that a few weeks or months ago. Whingeing was never my forte. Just be glad we’re alive.
