A Voice of Dissent

Beverly Turner has been subject to the mob led by the execrable Piers Morgan. And, having a spine, she is doubling down.

Having her say, she wrote for MailOnline : “Personally, I find it impossible to view the events surrounding Sir Tom Moore’s latter days without looking through the prism of Covid-19, the government’s response to it and the various ways in which our country has been manipulated and controlled with no clear metrics to escaping lockdowns.

As Peter Hitchens pointed out recently, there appears to have been no cost benefit analysis carried out before focusing on covid to the exclusion of all else. So she is right here. A rational and reasonable comment, I’d say.

“And I’m deeply saddened that this wonderful country seems suddenly beset with curtain-twitchers, jobs-worths and finger-waggers desperate to dob in the neighbours or simply shake their heads at an empty doorstep on any ‘designated clapping day’.”

Yup, can’t argue with that. I deplore what we have become, so it’s nice when someone in the public eye is prepared to stand firm against the mob and the hard-of-thinking cretins and say what many of us have been quietly saying throughout this crisis.

We have had a nasty flu type virus circulate. The figures being bandied about have been gerrymandered to make them seem worse – take, for example, captain sir Tom Moore. Apparently died of covid. No, he didn’t, he died after testing positive. He had prostate cancer, skin cancer, pneumonia and was over one hundred years old. He died of old age and likely as not, it was the pneumonia that did for him as it does with thousands of old people every winter. How many more disingenuous death certificates are there out there?

I don’t doubt that hospital admissions have increased as people who developed breathing difficulties were admitted to ICU even though they were dying anyway, but now get recorded as a covid death.

Even the 100,000 figure is disingenuous. It is a figure concocted by adding two separate flu seasons together, to make one scary figure. The government and the media have been consistently lying to us to justify their draconian measures.

Beverley said that “every death is sad for someone” but said that Covid-19 remains “relatively harmless” for the “vast majority” of people.

She claimed the lockdowns are leading people to believe that its an “instant death sentence for otherwise healthy people”.

Again, I can’t argue with that, but you can see why a professional bed-wetter like Morgan would get in a tizzy.

“It’s great that he lived to 100! It’s awesome that he got one last fab holiday.

“But I’m not clapping in the St to maintain the fear that imminent death is all around & we’re all in this together.

Yes, quite. This clapping lark is positively soviet and I refuse to engage, no matter what the cause.
