Remember folks, as you watch the rain today, it's the "wrong sort of rain" according to our beloved media.
The media will not be happy until they have scared us all to death; whether it is covid, monkey pox, drought, the wrong sort of rain, energy bills etc etc.
If you want to improve the quality of your lives, stop watching the news and reading the papers!
When you want to try to convince your viewer that Nanny is causing abject starvation and poverty, don't interview obese people who wear expensive Fitbits and own the latest mobile phones.
It is clearly false. Patients in hospital with covid at 5 November 2021 in England 7,072. 5 November 2020 it was 10,994 which is Not 14 times higher. It is infact about a thrid lower. Take a look at the https://t.co/ceAyB89s5j dashboard here:- https://t.co/ncJNHkgiUa
Yesterday evening Anthony Costello a member of "Independent SAGE" (a group of left wing activists doing their best to bring down the government) posted the above statement on Twitter.
The media, without checking the facts, jumped on it and published all manner of lurid stories eg The Mail:
Chris Whitty 'wants a new two-week NATIONAL lockdown and true UK
cases are as high as 38,000-a-day', ex-WHO expert who sits on
Independent SAGE panel claims
This morning, less than 12 hours after posting that tweet, Costello retracted it!
It is disgraceful that Costello posted an unsubstantiated rumour, and disgusting that the media ran with it without first checking the facts!
If Costello has any honour he will apologise and stand down from the pseudo SAGE.
Lockdown has caused many people series problems with their mental health, to deliberately scare them like this is inexcusable!
There is no "cultural upheaval" driven by youth, there is widespread dissatisfaction with the "quality" and "competency" of our politicians from all parties. Hence the fact Labour lost the election, despite what the "youthquake cheerleaders" from the media and Labour would have us believe!

The so called "lads'" mags such as "Nuts" which have been banned by certain shops because they show women in "sexist" poses, or "mainstream magazines and papers" (that campaign against "lads's mags") that deride female celebrities when they put on weight, show signs of ageing or have the "temerity" to appear in public without make up?

Nanny cannot resist building databases, and hates to remove data from these databases once she has uploaded it.
Therefore it should come as no surprise to learn that Nanny has reneged on a promise to remove the DNA profiles of people arrested but not charged by the police with a crime, ie one million innocent people, from the police DNA database.
Police will retain the DNA profiles in anonymised form, leaving open the possibility of connecting them up with people's names, ministers have admitted.
Currently, in England and Wales, the DNA profiles of everyone arrested for a recordable offence are retained by the police, regardless of whether they were charged or convicted.
The police national DNA database holds over five million profiles, including one million people with no criminal conviction.
Given that our police seem happy to sell personal details and to leak like the Titanic to the press, this is not exactly a very "welcome" development!

I see one of News Corps's proteges has caused a storm on his new radio show.
Glenn Beck (who has just left Fox News - part of News Corp) has compared the summer camp where the Norway massacre took place to a Nazi Hitler Youth camp.
"There was a shooting at a political camp, which sounds a little like, you know, the Hitler youth. I mean, who does a camp for kids that's all about politics? Disturbing."
Aside from the fact that this is disgracefully insensitive to the victims and their families, and that fact that it is bollocks, it also ignored one small fact.
Followers of Beck's 9/12 Project – which aims to "recapture the spirit of the day after America was attacked" – hold youth summer camps as well.
Organisers of the "vacation liberty schools", held in several states, teach children as young as eight a Tea Party endorsed curriculum spanning religion, economics and political principles.

Given the recent hysterical hue and cry over police bribes, phone hacking and email hacking (something that the political "elite" have known about for years) one would be forgiven for thinking (at least that's how the politicians etc are playing it) that these activities only ever "allegedly" took place wrt News International.
However, I read in today's Telegraph the following:
"Police sources said last night that no drugs had been found at the £2m house.."http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
I thought that, as per the way that the hacking story has been portrayed by the state and the media, that the police only leaked info to News International?
Evidently not!
RIP Amy Winehouse.
Wrt the media who ruthlessly hunted her in packs, as though they were hunting a wounded animal, bear this in mind: addiction is not a spectator sport or soap opera.

Despite all the hoo hah being whipped up by our "respected" politicians over the Murdoch hacking scandal, we should not lose sight of the fact that it's not just News Corp that "allegedly" has stuck its nose in people's private affairs.
Nanny is pretty adept at poking her nose in too.
Last year, it transpires that Nanny's organs of state (eg the police and town halls) asked for confidential communications (access private telephone and email records) information on more than half a million occasions.
Yes, this is the same police (don't just blame the Met btw, all police forces are at it) that happily sells details of arrests, phone accounts, pings etc to the media!
This being Nanny Britain, many of the requests apparently had errors in them, which led to the wrong people being monitored.
What gives the state and its organs the right to snoop?
The Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA)!

Nanny, possibly relieved at the avalanche of data being spewed forth about the Murdoch empire's "moral lapses", recently and rather quietly launched "The Police National Database".
Another day, another database!
This particular database will hold the records up to 6 million apparently innocent people, including every victim of sexual assault and domestic violence.
All 43 police forces in England and Wales and other law enforcement agencies will be able to access the database...along with members of News International and their hired stooges (topical "joke" their folks!).
Jennie Cronin, a director at the National Police Improvement Agency (NPIA), the body in charge of the database, estimated that the records of between 10 and 15 million people would be held (that's between 16% to 24% of the entire population).
Given that approximately 9.2 million people in the UK have criminal records, that leaves up to almost 6 million on the database who are we assume innocent.
Approximately 12,000 approved police officers and staff will be able to access the database.
Would these be of the same quality and high ethical standards as those who allegedly sold information and contact details of all and sundry (including the Queen) to News International?
David Davis, the former Conservative shadow home secretary, said in a matter of fact manner and without any apparent irony:
"Historically police databases have sometimes been made available to people outside of law enforcement agencies. This cannot be afforded for the PND to work properly."
Errmmm...quite!
Given that databases are notoriously leaky, and given the ongoing furore over police receiving payments for selling details of ordinary citizens to News International; does anyone trust the database and indeed the police not to leak information?

The ongoing News of The World scandal (each day brings fresh headlines of outrageous intrusions and spying) has caused an explosion of indignation and outrage from those spied on (quite rightly so) and the "establishment".
Unsurprisingly, there are calls for news laws to champion privacy and to stop the media from getting up to this sort of nonsense ever again.
However, before an angry mob lights their torches and marches towards the News of The World's HQ with the intention of administering "justice", let us step back and consider what has happened here and what might happen if new laws are hastily rushed through.
Innocent families have had their lives turned upside down by unscrupulous tabloid journalists and paid lackeys in the world of private detection.
However, the purpose of these actions was to harvest data and information used in news stories.
Who buys these papers to read these stories?
Errmm..that would be the British public.
The monster of intrusive and sick journalism has been of our own creation.
Moving on to the methods used by these media organs, aside from using private detectives who else helped them?
Errrmm..that would be the police, who have been receiving kickbacks for tips offs and passing on details etc.
Ever wondered how it was that the media got hold of the details of Chris Jefferies (the innocent man arrested by police, because he had "funny" hair, in the Joanna Yeates murder case)?
Is it not "odd" that the police have had (apparently for several years now) details of these hacking attempts, yet only now are they conducting a "proactive" investigation?
There is something seriously wrong with our police, and it needs to be sorted out now.
Moving on to the politicians who are screaming for blood and strict privacy laws.
Errmm..who is it who would have most to gain if their corrupt business practices and hypocritical sex lives were kept hidden?
What the News of The World (and other media organisations) have done (and continue to do) is without doubt repellent. These people should crawl under a stone and shrivel up and die.
However, do not forget they have done this because there is a demand to read trash, and because the police and others have happily been helping them and allowing them to get away with it.
Sadly the media are but a reflection and creation of our own personal hypocrisies.
That being said, be careful of siren calls for strict and hastily drafted new privacy laws; our "respected" and corrupt politicians have much to gain by this and we, as a democracy, have everything to lose.

I am genuinely sorry to see that Alan Johnson was forced to resign, because of the upcoming storm of media interest in issues relating to his marriage.
It seems a very "rum do" indeed when "professional" officers assigned to protect people end up compromising their role, and have affairs with those/the spouses of those that they are assigned to protect.
This is not the first time that this has happened, nor indeed will it be the last.
Indeed the recent botched undercover operation, relating to so called "eco warriors", could hardly have been helped by the fact that the undercover officer used his role as an excuse for a fling.
What kind of police force has Nanny created, that so willingly compromises itself in this manner just to satisfy carnal desires?
Whilst I am on the subject, how is that so many details about the "man with eccentric" hair (apparently wrongly arrested for murder, now someone else has been arrested) were leaked to the press; thus causing a firestorm of shouty headlines and lurid sh*te to be published wrecking that man's life.
Is this the way that "justice" is now to be conducted in this country? Media driven lynch mobs working hand in hand with the police?

I see that the media, government and weather "experts" are all screaming at us that the coldest winter in 400 years is about to begin today, and that when you wake up and read this we will all be covered in a thick blanket of snow.
That'll be the global warming then!
Hmmm, well call me cynical but I don't have much faith in the weather forecasters.
In the unlikely event that we are covered in snow, given the mass hysteria of the media et al there will be absolutely no excuse for the train companies, airports and councils not to have done some decent prep beforehand and for all services to be running smoothly and efficiently.
Yes???
However, I will give you a tip if you find yourselves snowbound without any grit to hand...cat litter!
It works a treat, I recommend that you buy a ton of the stuff just in case.
In related news, did I mention that I am a proud shareholder in one of the world's largest cat litter mines? (which has the cat shit market by the bollocks)...;)

Those of you who have managed to stay awake during the ongoing WikiLeaks drip drip release of diplomatic chit chat may find the following article, published on China Matters, to be of interest.
It seems, if Peter Lee (the author) is correct, that this is a media run leak (rather than a WikiLeak run leak) whereby the US has allowed the media organisations to redact certain data.
