Nanny Hates Sweden - Why She Won't Lift The Quarantine

It's been announced that there are no changes to the list of travel corridor countries to England. Normal cut-off is 20 cases / 100k in last 7 days.

All these European countries on the quarantine-exempt list except one. Can you spot which?

Perhaps @grantshapps can explain why. pic.twitter.com/t4oF1zglXo

My sympathies to the good people of Sweden who, despite the fact that their death rate is below Nanny's 20 per 100K limit for allowing unquarantined travel, are still on Nanny's Naughty Step and have to quarantine if they (or returning British tourists) enter the UK from Sweden.

This seems a tad perverse, given that Portugal is still allowed quarantine free travel even though it has breached Nanny's 20 death threshold.

Why does Nanny not want to allow Swedes to come her?

It is because if she does, it would be a tacit admission that Sweden has succeeded in bringing Covid under control without the need for lockdown.

Around the world national Nannies, egged on by an ever hysterical media (in the UK we had Sly News and Piers Morgan), followed each other like sheep into various types of lockdowns some (eg South Africa - which banned booze - and Australia - which arrests pregnant women for daring to post anti lockdown articles on Facebook) were more extreme than others.

Sweden, on the other hand, although it pursued a policy of social distancing, cleanliness and non family hugging eschewed masks and lockdowns.

The result being the Sweden was not decimated by Covid and, as can be seen from the figures, is coming out of it without the need for lockdown.

Needless to say this makes Nanny look rather foolish, and Nanny doesn't like to be made to look foolish. Hence she will not publicly acknowledge that Sweden got it right, and she got it wrong.

As and when this is behind us, and cooler heads prevail and they take a look at the post lockdown world, it will become woefully apparent that the lockdown "cure" was worse than the disease viz:

  • Nanny turned the NHS into a state religion, for which she condemned thousands to die in order to protect it (what kind of health service is it where you have to die in order to protect it?)
  • People have died, and will die, from untreated non Covid related illnesses (eg 400-500 people die every day in the UK from cancer, that rate will rise because of lockdown)
  • Thousands of elderly people were needlessly infected as Nanny cleared the hospitals of the elderly (in order to save the NHS!)
  • Depression, mental illness and suicides have risen
  • Domestic violence has risen
  • Childrens' eduction has been severely damaged
  • The economy has been trashed.

That's why Nanny dare not admit that Sweden got it right!

Cars Are Murder Machines


My sympathies to the good people of Sweden (a country I once happily lived and worked in for a number of years) for the recent terror attack.

Whilst I appreciate that security and accessibility etc need to be addressed after such incidents, I am somewhat disturbed by the reaction from reputable columnist, Eva Franchell, writing for a large Swedish newspaper, Aftonbladet.

ZeroHedge have provided a summary of what she wrote:
"she calls “effective murder machines” — that Franchell says “must simply be removed from city centres and places where people gather, if people are to be protected in future”.

Vehicles are “easy to steal, and so nothing has been able to stop their advance”.
I concur that some action should be taken to reduce the risk in certain areas of similar attacks, eg anti ramming bollards protecting pedestrian only areas. I also am in favour of parts of cities being made pedestrian only, if nothing else it would reduce the noise and pollution and make city centres more pleasant areas to be in.

However, an all out ban simply isn't practical.

Meanwhile Karolina Skog, a Swedish politician who has been Minister for the Environment since 25 May 2016, went overboard:
“Cars are driven largely by men so by giving a lot of space to cars; we’re giving a lot of space to men — at the expense of women,”
Yes we need to review security arrangements, but hysterical responses such as this do no one any favours!

Nanny Blocks Swedish Fanny


Commiserations to Fanny Carlson, a Swedish expat living in London, who recently tried to register for a Nectar card.

She was declined.

For why?

Nectar's computer system decreed that her christian name was too rude for it to cope with!

Knobheads!

Sunbathing Prevents Skin Cancer


As I sit in my office gazing at a rain lashed sarf cost, I am gemused at the seasonal massive marketing push by the purveyors of expensive lotions to sell all and sundry factor 50 sunblock etc.

Nanny has so successfully conditioned us over the last decade or so to fear the sun, that the purveyors of factor 50 have made a nice little earner out of it. This despite the fact that average British summer generally requires brollies rather than lollies and factor 50.

Anyhoo, as with all of Nanny's "research", it seems that her fears over sunbathing being akin to rubbing oneself with a radioactive rod may in fact be bollocks.

Researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden have concluded that women who never sunbathe during the summer are twice as likely to die than those who sunbathe everyday.

The researchers claim that guidelines which advise people to stay out of the sun unless wearing sunscreen may be harming the population, particularly in countries like Britain.

No kidding!

The research, which followed nearly 30,000 women over 20 years, suggests that women who stay out of the sun are at increased risk of skin melanomas and are twice as likely to die from any cause, including cancer.

Dr Pelle Lindqvist, lead author, is quoted by the Telegraph:
"The results of this study clearly showed that mortality was about double in women who avoided sun exposure compared to the highest exposure group.
Sun exposure advice which is very restrictive in countries with low solar intensity might in fact be harmful for women’s health. 

The mortality rate was increased two-fold among avoiders of sun exposure as compared to those with the highest sun exposure habits.”
Unsurprisingly it is likely that the lack of vitamin D may to be blame. Vitamin D is created in the body through exposure to sunshine and a deficiency is known to increase the risk of diabetes, tuberculosis, multiple sclerosis and rickets.

Cases of rickets have risen fourfold in the last 15 years as sunscreen has increased in popularity.

Previous studies have shown that vitamin D can increase survival rates for women with breast cancer while deficiencies can signal prostate cancer in men. Low levels of vitamin D have also been linked to more aggressive forms of skin cancer.

Public Health England says it would be considering the research carefully.

Doubtless those who lobby on behalf of the companies that manufacture and sell sunblock 50 will be pressing for this research to be rubbished by Nanny.

As with everything, use your commonsense and don't overdo it!

Nanny Bans Ungoogleable


As loyal readers know, Nanny is fond of banning certain words and phrases lest they cause offence (eg because in her view they are non pc).

However, sometimes Nanny is not always looking at a word or phrase from the "pc" perspective, but sometimes Nanny looks at it from the "corporate perspective".

Step forward Google (the epitome of free speech) which had a bone to pick with the good people from the Language Council of Sweden

Every year the Language Council publishes its top 10 new words that have entered the Swedish language, with the objective of showing how language and culture develops and changes (the reverse of what the French language police do;)).

Anyhoo last December one of the words that appeared in the list was "ungoogleable" (ogooglebar in Swedish), defined by the Council as "something that cannot be found with any search engine".

Sadly for the Swedes Google was not best pleased, it raised an objection.

For why?

Trademark issues.

Google wanted the meaning to relate only to Google searches. It called for changes to the Language Council of Sweden's definition and asked for a 'disclaimer' stressing that Google is a trademark.

All very well, but the word is used by Swedes to mean something that cannot be found with ANY search engine; ie in order to comply with Google's diktat the Swedes would have had to alter the meaning (much like the language censors in Orwell's 1984 did).

Therefore, in order to avoid a lengthy legal battle and in order to maintain their integrity the Swedes removed it from the list, but did so publicly.

A statement on the Language Council of Sweden's website, as per the BBC:
"Who decides language? We do, language users. We decide together which words should be and how they are defined, used and spelled."
In response, a Google spokesperson told the BBC:
"While Google, like many businesses, takes routine steps to protect our trademark, we are pleased that users connect the Google name with great search results." 
Wasn't it Google that also once said "don't be evil"?

Plus ca change!

Swedish Nanny - Gender Reversal

As loyal readers know, I am oft to spread my tentacles abroad to search out and highlight foreign Nanny's doings. This time I would like to highlight the doings of Swedish Nanny (a country I used to live and work in).

Step forward Top Toy, which produces children's Christmas catalogues in Sweden and Denmark for Toys R Us and BR.

So far so good.

However, RT reports that although the catalogues' page layouts are the same in both countries, the gender of children shown playing with the toys is reversed in the Swedish edition; eg a girl is shown playing with a machine gun in the Swedish edition.

Top Toy director of sales Jan Nyberg is quoted:
"With the new gender thinking, there is nothing that is right or wrong. It's not a boy or a girl thing, it's a toy for children." 
Top Toy is clearly running scared, in 2008, the company was criticised by Swedish Nanny's advertising watchdog Reklamombudsmannen (RO) for encouraging outdated gender roles with catalogues that featured boys dressed as superheroes and girls as princesses.

It is of course "ironic" that a country that eschews the machismo of "gun culture" should be happy to promote images of girls wielding machine guns. However, so long as it is "gender" neutral who cares?!

Nanny Unbans The Swedish Chef



As loyal readers know, Nanny is a somewhat cowardly individual; as and when the bright light of publicity and mockery is shone upon one of her daft ideas/petty rules, more often than not she backtracks and claims that it was a "misunderstanding".

I am gemused to see that Swedish Nanny behaves in exactly the same way.

Yesterday I wrote about a Swedish council banning Annica Eriksson (the school dinner lady in Falun) from cooking too well, because her food outshone the offerings of others at other schools.

Needless to say this ban prompted derision and mockery from a large number of people.

Can you guess what happened next children?

Yes, that's right, Swedish Nanny has unbanned the ban and claims that it was a "misunderstanding".

Snort!

The Local reports that at a meeting, held Monday afternoon, Ms Eriksson was told by the nutrition project leader Katarina Lindberg that local authorities would not stand in the way of her aspirations to offer pupils home-made bread and fresh vegetables:
“Annica misunderstood us, of course she can bake her own bread.”
She noted that the whole thing was down to a "miscommunication":
"What we've said that the fruits and vegetables should be chosen according to season; it's a matter of taking environment and climate considerations into account."
ROFLOL!

Suffice to say Ms Eriksson doesn't believe a word of that nonsense, and knows full well that the council was forced to eat humble pie and serve a large helping of pork pie in their statement.

Lindberg acknowledged that her colleagues were aware of the negative publicity:
“We are all affected by the events and the media attention this received.

This is about children’s food, that is our future.”
I advise the people of Sweden to learn the following mantra:

Councils are the enemies of the people!

Nanny Bans The Swedish Chef



My thanks to a loyal reader who pointed me to a story regarding my old residence (1996-2000) of Sweden, wherein Swedish Nanny has got her knickers into a twist over the most excellent cooking of Annica Eriksson, a school dinner lady at a school in Falun.

The local council ("municipality") has banned her from cooking certain dishes.

For why?

They are too good!

Pupils at her school regularly dine on freshly baked bread and an assortment of 15 vegetables.

Sounds good, yes?

So what is the problem?

Well you see folks Sweden practices (so it claims) "equality" (the price of a social democratic system), wherein everyone is meant to be equal and treated equally. The result of this being an unfortunate flaw in the Swedish psyche; namely that if a Swede sees another Swede doing rather well for him/herself, the green eyed monster raises its ugly head (ie jealousy).

The local Nanny council banned Ms Eriksson from cooking certain dishes, because Nanny knows that other schools in the area don't eat as well and deemed it "unfair".

Now in the real world competition often improves the quality of services or products that people receive. However, in Nanny's world it is easier to simply hold people back from doing their best; because Nanny doesn't want to (or can't) make the effort to improve.

Katarina Lindberg, head of the unit responsible for the school diet scheme, told the local Falukuriren newspaper:
"A menu has been developed... It is about making a collective effort on quality, to improve school meals overall and to try and ensure everyone does the same." .
As you can see, the state is doing its best (as it always tries to do) to hold people back from improving their lives.

Ms Eriksson is not best pleased:
"It has been claimed that we have been spoiled and that it's about time we do as everyone else."
From now on the school's vegetable buffet will be halved in size, and Ms Eriksson's handmade loafs will be replaced with store-bought bread.

Her traditional Easter and Christmas smörgåsbords may also be under threat!

As I have noted many times before, councils (wherever they are based) are the enemies of the people!

Día de los Muertos

Happy Día de los Muertos everyone!

As Europe is plunged into crisis by Georgie Papandreou's shrewd move in calling a referendum, I see that Scottish Nanny is trying, yet again, to introduce a minimum price for booze.

Minimum pricing was rejected in a 76-49 vote at Holyrood last year. However, MSPs approved a ban on discount deals, such as two-for-one bottles of wine, and restricted "irresponsible" drinks promotions and advertising near premises.

Well, if Nanny does get this through I doubt that it will by any discernable measure reduce the amount of booze imbibed in Scotland. Similar pricing schemes operated in Scandinavia simply push those who drink "Scrumpy Jack" etc to brew their own. During the 5 years I lived in Stockholm I saw many drunks wandering the streets!

Morning Has Broken!



I had an early trek (up with the lark) to Brighton Station this morning with Eva, as she is popping over the Sweden for a couple of weeks.

My goodness me what an awful lot of people there were there milling around wearing hi vis jackets. These hi vis wearers were not just station staff, but also leafleteers, cleaners and statisticians/pollsters with clip boards.

All of them looked so self engorged with their own perceived sense of self importance and self satisfaction!

Tonk regularly says "just laugh at hi vis".

However, doubtless due to the unfeasibly early hour and the fact that I had consumed industrial quantities of brandy the night before, I had a real urge to thwack these self important people on their heads with their clipboards.

What is it about hi vis that is so damned annoying?
