1/. “I’m not really bumbling. I’m as hard as nails”
In this interview, #BorisJohnson shows that the “bumbling Boris” character is just that: a character
“My approach to politics & human nature is that you can make a good case for anything” #BorisResigns

3/. In 2020, I dug up #BorisJohnso’s #TakeItOnTheChin
I also found the smoking gun of the #HerdImmunityScandal - the #GreenwichSpeech
“There’s a risk new diseases such as #coronavirus could trigger a panic that goes beyond what is medically rational”

For me, my investigation began by chance on 8/3/20 when I stumbled on @BorisJohnson’s interview with @Schofe & @hollywills where he said “one theory is we could #TakeItOnTheChin”
I clipped it & it went viral
Ironically, this was also the same day as first Briton died of #COVID

As #COVID19 hit, every epidemiologist/virologist made clear #HerdImmunity without a vaccine was an “outcome” not a “strategy”
Every behaviourist made clear “behavioural fatigue” was unscientific
Every expert knew about asymptomatic spread in Feb 2020
Then the penny dropped

17/. Last August, #Palantir purchased $50 million of physical gold

In the mid-20th century, satellites helped us determine the exact circumference of the Earth: 40,030km
But 2000+ years earlier, Eratosthenes
a Greek mathematician, came up with nearly the exact same figure using two sticks & his brain

I once asked “how is it that all scientists aren’t mystics, all cosmologists not poets?”
Carl Sagan was both of these
This passage - Pale Blue Dot - was inspired by the photo of Earth taken in 1990, by the Voyager 1 from a distance of about 6 billion km.

In this footage of @BorisJohnson from 2013, the then London mayor says that, in politics, you can “make a case for any course of action”.
He also admits that he isn’t really “bumbling”.
He’s “hard as nails”.

Two garbled, nonsensical answers from @MattHancock & @Dominic2306
It’s a shame it’s taken 16 months before these question have finally been asked
It’s a shame the media still ignore it
But as this👇shows, Palantir are central.

On 2/4/20 the govt had INSTRUCTED hospitals to send people “who may have #COVID19” to care homes WITHOUT TESTING
The govt KNEW about asymptomatic transmission in Jan/Feb 2020
The question is which Minister signed off this directive.

This is not true
The govt knew asymptomatic transmission of #COVID19 was likely in Jan & had this confirmed in Feb
SAGE minutes on 28 January 2020 state that early indications suggest there was asymptomatic spread.

The #NHSDataGrab has been underway since Oct 2020 (see Tweet👇)
Why was it ignored for the last 8 months?
News editors, journalists & politicians appeared to be unwilling to report it
It’s great that the #PalantirPlan is now getting wide coverage, but are we already too late?

These Ministers do the opposite
As viewers, we end up shouting at the TV or switching it off!

3/. Too often over the past year, Ministers have been allowed to not just sidestep questions, but blatantly lie
For example, whenever a Minister claims that “no one knew about asymptomatic transmission ‘til May”, it’s a lie
They knew about it January.

1/. Let’s not forget, that #DominicCummings - who employed ‘eugenicist’, Andrew Sabisky - was central to the #HerdImmnityScandal which is central to the #PalantirPlan
It puts genomics at the heart of the programme for govt, using the UK as the petri-dish for a ‘brave new world’.

Described as “a masterclass in framing & gaslighting” PM Rutte announced in March their ‘strategy’ was #herdimmunity then tried to deny it
Is the involvement of shadowy company, Palantir, in both strategies pure coincidence?

When the subject moves to ethics, @BorisJohnson becomes more guarded
Asked whether he believes one "can derive the ethics from the science" he avoids answering
Perhaps he’s aware that discussions of genomics can easily slip into the subject of eugenics.
