@oneadds @RishiSunak Guillain-Barré syndrome.

Research had shown the chances of developing GBS following vaccination are extremely small.

ANY vaccination - to claim it’s only the covid vaccine causing GBS is misinformation.

nhs.uk/conditions/gui… @oneadds @RishiSunak Infections that have been known to trigger Guillain-Barré syndrome

• Food poisoning - especially if caused by campylobacter bacteria

• Cytomegalovirus
• Flu
• HIV
• Some tropical diseases (Dengue, Zika)

U are more likely to get GBS from an infection (flu) than the vaccine

@Conservatives a Doomsday Cult.

Investors seem inclined to regard the UK Conservative Party as a doomsday cult, according to Paul Donovan, chief economist of UBS Global Wealth Management.

Confirmation, if we ever needed it! In his morning comment, Donovan gives an absolutely blistering verdict on the government’s plans:
The global signals from the UK’s mini-budget matter. Modern monetary theory has been taken into a corner by the bond markets and beaten up

Net Zero. What’s Really Going On Here?

18 August 2022

We won’t let the drive for Net Zero, one of the most important challenges facing the UK today, become another example of secretive closed-door procurement practices (1)➡️ That’s why we’ve filed judicial review proceedings against East of England Broadband Network (E2BN) for their decision to, we believe, unlawfully award a £70 billion ‘Everything Net Zero’ Framework Agreement to the Place Group, a company with scant emissions reduction expertise➡️

@DragonInLondon @DrFrancesRyan Not quite the full picture

Overall LFB coped well with Johnson’s cuts - no doubt due to their professionalism

Boris had wanted deeper cuts

Mayer said no more cuts if LFB is to have sufficient resources to meet future challenges, keep Londoners safe

london.gov.uk//press-release… @DragonInLondon @DrFrancesRyan Furthermore:

Mayer Report:

In nearly all London boroughs, LFB still hits its target, 6 mins average for 1st appliance on scene of an incident

- individual wards now not meeting average attendance time targets has risen, in particular where a fire station has been closed.

Food security should be national security - Now.

Chill winds blowing through agriculture - especially in Lincolnshire, Britain’s bread basket.

The main reason - soaring fertiliser prices.

gov.uk/government/sta… Farmers are now growing less for food consumption, and growing more for animal feed

• 25% less pigs being farmed, pig meat shortage will hit quite quickly.

Factor in: No more EU cash. English farmers face losing half their EU-style subsidies by 2024
