This is a lie, what measures do primary schools have besides opening a window?

Nothing

The government has done nothing to protect CEV households, Focused protection looks a lot like Darwinian survival
#edutwitter
Schools are so safe the Government expects so many staff to get sick that we will have to have 60-90 kids being taught in a hall due to staff shortages

This is literally the plan, keep going until your the last person standing, what do CEV staff do?
Heard several times yesterday that "the majority of teachers are young"
What about those that aren't?
What about young staff with diabetes, organ transplants, immunicompromised, cancer etc?
What about those with at risk family members?

These are the people who have been silenced
This is the Great Barrington Declaration approach to education, education staff will be willing to sacrifice themselves so they can be emotionally blackmailed and exploit

Same goes for Healthcare workers

Our school policy is now basically a libertarian's herd immunity disaster waiting to happen, and it wouldn't have been possible without media and politicians mainstreaming disinformation
labourhub.org.uk/2022/01/03/ant…
For all this talk of "focused protection" and "protect the vulnerable" a few months ago, we see very little of this in reality, they seem to have been edited out of the conversation by the same people who complain about being silenced or cancelled

Don't worry, apparently Long Covid is imaginary, forget those brain scans and micro clots, its just in your head.. Image
From gaslighting long covid, to "transmission not an issue in schools its all that mixing at school gates and sleepovers", he does have a track record

Also using the language of antivaxxers around child vax in this attack on @IndependentSage for calling for 12-15 vax Image
There is a small group of paediatricians who have produced most the evidence to block measures in schools
They dismiss hospitalisations, deaths, total minimisers, they've provided the shield for Ministers to hide behind

🧵Feels a bit like we are flying into the new year blindfolded, testing issues, gaps in data from Christmas and more coming over new years

Government will claim they don't have enough data to justify any measures to cut transmission in schools

Now comes the gaslighting...
2/ To be honest I don't think it matters what the data says, they've embraced a fatalistic ideology, a let's get this over and done with, shit happens attitude,
3/ We've reached the gaslighting section of the covid merry go round, it wouldn't be a school holiday without the usual papers trying to drum up false outrage at schools

🧵With reports from various authorities of an Omicron paediatric surge, I hope the JCVI decision to not offer vaccines to all 5-11 year olds doesn't end in disaster

I agree once again there seems to be a fixation natural immunity
#edutwitter
2/ All the data for adults has shown that vaccination boosts protection regardless of prior infection, so why would it matter how many children have previously been infected?

Vaccination is better than unvaccinated Image
3/ I wonder if they discussed the increasing evidence of Omicrons impact on children

🧵UK MPs and RW media have had "enough of experts"

Some examples of the disinformation and ideology we are up against

Swayne describing SAGE as "Dr Strangeloves"
2/ Swayne again, claiming road accidents and flu are killing more people than covid

They aren't
3/ Bridgen claiming infection is 20× better than vaccination at providing immunity

🧵Nawaz and the rabbit hole

@LBC host Nawaz bought big into the GBD, has been in contact with the main disinformation groups and has gone down the rabbit hole

A recent look at his Facebook showed a lot of violent language
2/ After arguing no second wave, he then went into "Bidens not won yet" wait for recounts before signing a letter in Jan 21 claiming lockdowns were a Chinese conspiracy

See the other signatories
3/ He had spent 2020 arguing kids dont infect adults "magically immune" Image

The CRG grouping of around 60 MPs and @SirGrahamBrady are in position they can force a leadership challenge whenever they want

Just like ERG we again have an extremist cell in Tory party impacting national policy

Wheres the media scrutiny?
#r4today
For more than a year we've raised concerns about links between T4Recovery, Recovery Alliance, CRG, UsForThem, the dark money and links to Trump backers and Bannon

Pretty much only @BylineTimes has covered this, but there's is so much detail out there
Same strategy used on T.May to force her into narrowed policy options are being used again
CRG pressure from inside, Tices Reform then threaten to split Tory votes, a pincer movement that puts Johnson into a tight box
