Nanny Bans "Boys" and "Girls"

 

Training kids to look for offence in everything they see, hear and do will not benefit them when they enter the real world.

Nanny Never Checked To See if Masks in Schools are Harmful

 


Nanny's policy of requiring secondary school pupils to wear masks is, as anyone with some common-sense knows, harmful.

Aside from the hygiene issues, there are educational problems (pupils and teachers need to see facial expressions in order to properly communicate and learn) and psychological ones (pupils have been observed to be downcast and subdued).

It transpires that Nanny never took a risk assessment of the pros and cons of mandating masks for schools, instead she allowed the teaching unions to bully her into enforcing the measure.

"..instead of a scientific evaluation of the policy, the Department for Education (DfE) conducted a series of surveys to garner views among teachers...”

The Dangers of Camels


 

As the pandemic in the UK is now more or less kneecapped, those who have enjoyed the spotlight pontificating on what we should have been doing are becoming rather fretful about their fading "newsworthiness".

One such individual is Devi Sridhar FRSE, an American public health researcher and nutritionist, who holds the Chair of Global Public Health at the University of Edinburgh. She is also a self styled "expert" on Covid and a proponent of the "zero Covid" cult.

As such it should come as no surprise to learn that she is now warning about the dangers of camels passing on Covid.

My advice here is simple, now is not the time to buy a camel!

Is Your Garden Racist?

 

Apparently if you have in any way, shape, or form cultivated your garden, or done any gardening whatsoever then your garden is racist!

Brighton Council Bunny Huggers Apologise for Destroying Europe's Oldest and Longest Green Wall


 

On Wednesday I wrote the Brighton council had destroyed Europe's longest and oldest green wall, planted by the Victorians, which was classified as a wildlife reserve.

The bunny huggers in the council have now apologised, and admitted that the "pruning" went a bit too far.

As per the Argus:

“We’d like to apologise to our residents for the way we went about cutting back the stretch of Green Wall at the bottom of Duke’s Mound,

It should not have been cut down in this way. We are very sorry about this, and an investigation is underway to find out how this happened.

What is clear is that only minimal cutting back should have occurred, but we accept that we cut back much further than was necessary, and that this should not have happened to a Local Wildlife Site. 

We are going to undertake a detailed investigation into how this happened, and how the Local Wildlife Site status (which was acknowledged at the planning stage) was not properly noted or considered as the detailed designs were worked up.” 

In the meantime the council have sprayed a vast amount of seeds over the area, which has (for the time being) turned it green.

Covid Passports for Overseas Travel Ready for 17 May

 

There will be some who fear this as the start of a slippery slope towards medical passports for domestic use.

It should though be borne in mind:

1 International travel for holidays is not compulsory

2 Foreign countries will ask for proof of vaccination.

Brighton's Green Council Destroys Longest and Oldest Living Wall

The Madeira Terrace Green Wall was partially cut down for a 'possible' cycle lane

Fanatics come in all shapes and sizes, and are usually recognised by their single issue obsession with a particular idea/policy etc at the cost of everything else.

Step forward Brighton Council (run by the Greens) who have decreed that "green" is the way forward for Brighton, and that the spearhead for the "green revolution" will be the ever popular and much loved cyclists.

As such, in order to move the green revolution forward, the council have destroyed Europe's longest and oldest green wall, planted by the Victorians, which is classified as a wildlife reserve.

How does this help the green revolution? I hear you ask.

Simple, it provides room for a cycle lane!

The lesson here is clear, don't let fanatics take control of your council!

Cheese is Racist!

 



The media, for reasons best known to itself, chose to give the oxygen of publicity to a cult member from XR who is of the view that cheese, because some members of BAME can't digest it, is racist.

I will not name this crank (who of course is based in Brighton!), as I don't want to give her any personal publicity.

What should worry us all is not the fact that cranks such as this exist, but that the media give them a platform and act as enablers to spread their insanity!

Dover Castle Pub Falls Foul of Brighton Council's Fussbuckets


Yesterday I noted that the good people of the Caxton Arms in Brighton had fallen foul of the council's fussbuckets, and were forbidden from opening because their outside space was not considered "safe".

Within hours it seems some form of compromise has been reached, and the Caxton Arms has been allowed to open today.

Sadly the same fussbuckets stuck their unwelcome noses into the affairs of the Dover Castle, and deemed their outside space not to be "safe".

As such, the Dover was forced to cancel its reopening at the very last minute.

With luck, the jobsworth's in the council will be persuaded to step back from this nonsense and allow the pub to reopen.

Caxton Arms Falls Foul of Brighton Council's Fussbuckets

Commiserations to the good people of the Caxton Arms Brighton, who had been planning to open outside today.

Sadly, at the last minute, Brighton council's fussbuckets vetoed the idea because of some issues wrt "air flow" outside.

I understand that the brewery, Shepherd Neame, are taking issue with this nonsense!

Nanny's Covid Passport Dilemma


 

Nanny has got herself into a wee bit of a muddle over Covid passports.

Whilst it is clear that for international travel there will be a need for something, it is far from clear as to whether they are needed (or indeed are practical) for ordinary domestic activities eg shopping/going to the pubs.

A theoretical case can be made for domestic use, if other restrictions (eg masks and social distancing) are removed. However, it is far from clear that Nanny wants those restrictions removed.

Even if the restrictions are removed, in exchange for a covid passport, there are ethical and practical problems eg:

-should people's medical history (even part of it) be made public?

-is it technically possible for passports to be created?

-what additional costs will be incurred for shops/pubs etc in manning the entrances to stop non passport holders gaining entrance?

The list can be added to.

I suspect that as the cases go down, and the complexity/costs of the passports becomes clearer, Nanny will gently kick the idea into the long grass and only revisit it if there is a surge in the winter.
