I've now heard it all. The disgraced Liam Fox live on LBC, complaining about the lack of alignment in vaccine and quarantine standards across the UK and EU Nations
Is he actually insane? Does he not realize he personally killed any institution that might undertake any alignment?
It's an obscure brexit factoid but a relevant one, that's so tyrannical was the conservative purge of European Union ties, that the UK now shares fewer border agreements with its neighbor than does the famous pair that is north and South Korea. We burned everything.
Like psychopaths armed with flamethrowers, we didn't just burn legal agreements with ECJ or EU institutions. We burned advisory bodies providing transparency on the working of Government (never replaced). Even the little deals that were there to lift tourist spend for all - pyred
Was it strategic thinking? Or a forest fire lit by zealots in Government for their own masturbatory satisfaction?

As it happens you can assess this objectively - vs what "normal" neighbours do⬇️
The answer Dr Fox is you won and then burned all over it.

Another #Johnson Wizard of Oz moment.

You'll recall Johnson's position was the #Hancock matter was closed, no need for him to resign.

Now the reality shift. Instead believe:

#Johnson removed #Hancock decisively, within 24 hours, after considering the matter thoroughly.
Is Johnson blind to his reality dysfunction, has he become so used to denial that like a sociopath, he no longer understands objective truth?

Does he believe reality is what he says it is?

If a tree falls and #Johnson was not there, no sound was heard, for no tree existed.
A reminder why accepting reality denial may kill people.

Collection of memes/ tweets produced about Matt Hancock.

A few are borderline sexist and almost all are crude, I found them funny anyway, you've been warned.

Before I start, some Tories are already saying that no Social Distancing rules were broken.
Lying is what they do!⬇️
Eat Out to Help Out is a general theme in many of the memes. Some are unambiguous about the point they're making.
A number point to Hancock's obvious hypocrisy

It should be headline news that the UK is again failing so seriously compared to our nearest neighbours.

Yet you don't know the UK is in trouble⬇️

Eh?
Is that true?
How can that be?

You'll probably want to check my source. The data are correct.

And comprehensively supressed.
For months you've been fed a sugary diet of jingoistic vaccine nonsense.

- Vaccines will save us
- Britain leads the world
- Our scientists made it
- We're giving it away
- The EU are stupidly behind because (Brexit)

Just as many half truths and outright lies as usual. Sorry.
On 28/3/20 (not 21), I wrote a thread on today - called "Back to New Normal".

Back then we barely understood tests, let alone variants or vaccines.

But I'm about 95% accurate, check it🔽
How?
Trust me, I'm not clever, I have no special insight.

Twitter says #MattHancock should face prison. Sadly
1. as a crown minister he's exempt from almost any charge
2. Only him?
Collective responsibility?
PM Approvals?

For Justice English law is 👎
We need Int'l Criminal Court, Crimes Against Humanity

But chant "Lock Them Up" for?
For anyone interested in this topic, the Hague grants no MP protections, but it's no certainty

Under CaH legislation it should be possible to put Cabinet members on trial for negligence causing unnecessary mass death

But (simplifying) Public Health Crimes are exempt from CaH
But there are other parts of ICC law that take precedence over any Public Health exceptions, the most obvious being the Rome Statute.

The argument would be that UKGov negligence constituted a serious attack on human dignity.

There are good examples:

1 in 3 developing world vaccines at "cost price"
"Oxford Astrazeneca"; British "Generosity"

Sounds like we did something good, right?

😢

TLDR: HMG was forced into climbing down from a boneheaded profit policy. "At cost" was the result AND the status quo before their blunder.
When this story first went round in May 2020, it was used as a warning about the dangers of variants.

😢 As a warning it failed

Why?
1. No one knew about variants
2. Few knew cost free vaccines had become policy from late 1990s

You're all experts on 1 now
What about 2. policy?
A statement:
"The only good thing the WTO ever did was to protect the profits of big pharma in Public Health"

Controversial? Actually no - except for "good". That was manufactured.

That spin is crucial to understand

@MaajidNawaz @lbc is speaking exceptionally dangerous pseudoscience nonsense on LBC today. He's picked up a barmy theory about community escape or some other nonsense suggesting that viruses can somehow self-select for the most dangerous strain as a result of vaccinating everyone
He's mixing concept of bacterial resistance with viral vaccination. The distinction between the two is a reason to turn off the radio since resistance in bacteria comes through treatment whereas resistance in viruses come from mutation due to lack of treatment (very simplified)
This man has a national platform. And yet he's turning out the sort of nonsense that you hear Steve Bannon in the US and all the other anti-vax deniers throwing out. under the cover of using the word May he compare two concepts where 1 is 99% certain and his other is 1%
