Burnham is much more sensitive than Starmer to what people want. He made a success of Manchester, why not of UK? Evidently he doesn’t have a very fixed ideology, as you appear to want of a PM.
 
At least he is not in the Lobby’s pocket in the way that Starmer is. The Lobby understood Stamer’s basic lack of self-confidence at an early stage, and exploited it. Burnham doesn’t lack self-confidence, and doesn’t have any deep commitment to Zionism, no Jewish wife and children. He may well have been a member of LFI, many are for political convenience, but we may find that the commitment is superficial, when serious political crises come up, exposing Israel as a pariah state. Starmer would always stick with Israel, against British interests, Burnham may not.

I didn’t get any shots or boosters and I’m fine – I never got Covid or Rebound Covid. In fact, if you read my investigative journalism you will see that my main contrarian conclusion is that virus spread began many months before the official narrative states. I myself am confident I had Covid in January 2020, two months before the first confirmed case in my state (and thus, likely acquired natural immunity, which would explain how this non-vaccinated person never got Covid.)I call this theory “early spead.” What if millions of people had already been infected by late 2019 and January 2020? Where was this big spike in all-cause deaths for this “deadly” virus? (Answer: It not there, didn’t happen). Another way to ask this question: Why did a super-contagious virus wait until late March 2020 to suddenly become “deadly?” Yes, Trump supported Warp Speed, and I can’t stand Trump. He also (still) thinks the Covid shots “saved millions of lives” when they really killed millions of lives (IMO). FWIW, Trump actually believes Iran’s leaders murdered 54,000 protestors in a matter of a couple of days in January 2020. That’s preposterous and even, probably, impossible. (Where are the 54,000 bodies?)BTW, do you know anything about the embalmers’ clots? In your opinion, do you think they are real? Should someone in public health be investigating this phenomena? If no one is, why is this?

No, don’t know about “embalmer’s clots”, and certainly don’t have them myself (so far I can tell, anyhow). I’m pretty much “in the pink” here.
 
But do I think concerns like this should be investigated? Absolutely!
 
All the stuff about gain-of-function research, the joint research with the Wuhan virology lab, EcoHealth Alliance and Peter Daszak, should be scrutinized.
 
I just don’t trust RFKjr. as far as I could throw him. I think he’s pretty much full of shit and shouldn’t be in the position of power and trust he’s in.

Thanks for your reply which elicited a guffaw for I’m not a Stalinist. My understanding of Trotsky is he coveted a global communist system–total control–which is what the so-called Globalists/Neoliberals aim to attain. Yes, rent seeking isn’t part of communist doctrine but is integrated into the sort of socialism being sought–the government becomes the collector of all rents. The problem is the Diktat as opposed to letting millions of blossoms to bloom, which is what the Empire is trying to impose–do what we say or else. What Rump and his masters are trying to create is a Mafia Capitalist System on a global scale.

===============================
 
Thanks for the reply.
 
Hopefully not to belabor the point here, which was a tangent to your original post, but while Trotsky was a forceful advocate of world Communist revolution (as opposed to Stalin’s “revolution in one country”), he was not, so far as I can tell, what we would call a “control freak” as he is now often painted as.
 
In fact, it’s worth noting that in the early days of the Revolution (1917), before state control had solidified in Russia, free expression in the arts—painting, music, theater—flourished. In fact, some of the most creative and rebellious stuff imaginable was produced in that time. And Trotsky was certainly not opposed to this creative upsurging. It wasn’t until Stalin’s takeover that the severe clampdown on Soviet art, “socialist realism” and all that, took hold.
 
So I think it’s unfair to paint Trotsky as some grim determined bureaucrat who was only interested in how many tractors and machine tools could be produced, at the expense of singing and dancing (as in Emma Goldman’s famous “If I can’t dance, I don’t want to be part of your revolution!“).
 
If you’re really interested in learning about Trotsky, I highly recommend Isaac Deutcher’s definitive 3-volume work: The Prophet Armed, The Prophet Unarmed and The Prophet Outcast. Warning: it’s a big undertaking reading this. But well worth it. Deutscher is something of a Trotsky partisan, but to his credit he’s quite fair-minded and actually fairly objective: he does point out the mistakes he made.

SARS-CoV-2 virus. 100% made in USA Pentagon biolab bioweapon (Most likely the Georgia lab). Identified and smuggled out of the Wuhan lab for weapons development by Eco Health Alliance. Smuggled out of China by the US consulate in Wuhan the developed weapon smuggled back in by the US consulate in Wuhan. Initial outbreak was a circle around the US consulate. No early case anywhere near the Wuhan virus lab.

Trotsky’s greatest contribution to communism/socialism was the critique of bureaucracy, which was later adapted by post-Trotskyist libertarian socialists like Castoriadis and Pallis into a critique of state socialism (similarly in North America by Hal Draper, who also criticized Leninist/Trotskyist sectarianism). The idea that “world communism” would turn the state into a collector of rents is ridiculous. If communism were achieved worldwide, there would be no state to collect rents. The world would be under a global economic plan that would be formulated from the bottom up by units of self-managing workers’ councils and communes.

‘Covid’ was a DARPA project. It was planned implemented and run by the ‘deep state’ the entire time through multiple administrations before even Trump I.

You may remember Trump giving a covid press conference in early 2020 when they began the public face of the operation.

I forget the specifics of the question-and-answer but I believe it was when Trump was asked if there will be any ‘lockdowns’ and he replied something along the lines of ‘we’ll see…we’d prefer not to do that…that would take coordination at many levels…’

And at that point Mike Pompeo, who was standing next to him as Sec of State at the time – he had been CIA Director immediately prior to this position – Pompeo says ‘actually, we’re aleady in the middle of an operation’ or something like that to which Trump replied ‘It would have been nice if you told me.’

Of course, Trump didn’t do anything else but play right along the entire time continuing to give away tidibits of what goes on inside the system here and there.

This is perfect in that it makes him come across as a real man of the people to many, thus satisfying his own personal aggrandizement and wealth and power lust as well as the keeping the embedded deep state systwm itself intact: the machine gets to keep chugging along unhindered with a faux populist at the helm.

Don’t get me wrong: I’m not saying that the whole response to the pandemic (which was not a “plandemic”) wasn’t completely fucked-up, and that Big Pharma doesn’t have a hell of a lot to answer for here, or that Fauci wasn’t lying through his teeth about gain-of-function research and all that. But the story being told by y’all that the whole thing was a gigantic plan to genetically modify the entire population, I just can’t buy that. And wasn’t it Trump himself who pushed “Operation Warp Speed”? I guess this puts me in the minority here, eh?

 
It surely was a plannedemic George, even Mike Pompeo called it a “live exercise” during a short speech in 2020, which might still be on Youtube? Even Bill Gates held an event in Washington Square in NYC during Oct. 2019 on how medical personnel should respond to a pandemic where folks were dropping in the streets.

Smuggled out of China by the US consulate in Wuhan the developed weapon smuggled back in by the US consulate in Wuhan. Initial outbreak was a circle around the US consulate. No early case anywhere near the Wuhan virus lab.

 
I’m sure they were developing the virus in more than one american lab, but the one that got it all started was the Fort Detrick biolab in Frederick, Md., which was closed down by the Maryland health department in late July for pathogens escaping its waste system among other serious violations. Maryland intended it be shuttered permanently, because of countless violations spanning decades, but the army reopened it in the spring of 2020, citing national security concerns. 
 
The plannedemic began in earnest during June of 2019, when residents of upscale retirement communities around Washington D.C., began dying from what was then described as a ‘mysterious respiratory disease similar to pneumonia that medical people had no answers for. That news died away much like the covid patients, when they were mistreated with ventilators. During the fall the new story was a vaping disease caused by people vaping liquid vitamin E, which also died away with China’s first case in Dec. 2019, but the american army had trained some of their athletic personnel, on the grounds of Fort Detrick during the summer months, into the autumn for upcoming games in November 2019 for athletic games, similar to the olympics and held every four years in different locales, but for military personnel only. The Nov. 2019 games were held in Wuhan, China and the american athletes did uncharacteristically poorly, with some having to leave early due to serious illness. The amercan team stayed at a hotel in Wuhan called the American Hotel, which is right across the street from the wet market where China discovered their first case. All of the above can still be googled and discovered for one’s self. Nothing to hide here.

Primarily citric acid. Where only a few cereal grains contain gluten, virtually every vegetable food apart from those cereal grains contain citric acid. I can absolutely minimize it which helps a lot. Another immune tolerance I have is to several fatty acids. One of those I can delete entirely, the other minimize it to a good extent.
To delete those two entirely does require a fully synthetic nutrient mix. I have nutrient deficiencies due to both my limited diet and limited absorption of some. I have made a full and ballance mix of all six electrolytes and I have made a balanced mix of all essential minerals, but vitamins with which to create a mix is unobtainium. A full balanced mix of all essential vitamins and minerals, adjusted slightly according to those I am deficient in and I could lead a somewhat normal life.
I have found the anti inflammatory properties of quinine medicines strongly counters the effects of citric acid intolerance but that also, for me is unobtainium. Currently testing individual vitamins to see which make a noticeable difference. Found one just the other day.

From the documents the Russians captured in Ukraine, The Americans and Nazis were working on corona viruses there. They were likely trying to develop several of them.
The one that hit Wuhan originated from a strain that was collected from a cave in southern China, Yunan I think. A memo went out to all Eco Health Allience employees working in civilian biolabs around the world that if that ran onto a virus that muted ten times during their research on it, they were to immediately stop that research and notify head office in the US. From the we jump to the Pfizer research manage, his homosexual date with Veritas then aft a bit of booze talking about directed evolution to create new strains.
 
Mutating ten times. Forwarded on to directed evolution in pentagon and Pfizer biolabs. Exactly the same as creating a domestic plant variety with certain traits or a domestic animal with certain traits

‘Maybe some had saline solution?’ – DunGroanin 49

They put out different batches:

‘There’s a number of things I want to point out here.

One is the extreme level of side effects that we’re seeing: orders of magnitude worse than flu jab adverse reactions.

Just the rolling average here is looking like, I don’t know, between 100 and 200, instead of four!

We see that these are really toxic products. They really are toxic products.

That’s bad enough, but, as I argued:

If you’re a cancer sufferer, you might accept a dangerous intervention if, on balance, it could extend your life or its quality by a year or so.

But these products have been given to the general public, most of whom are perfectly well.

That’s the normal deal with the vaccine:

You’re perfectly well when you turn up at the doctor’s office, you get an injection, and you leave and you’re still perfectly well, and all that’s happened is you’ve acquired a defence against a specific pathogen.

That’s the deal.

What we shouldn’t have is that you occasionally get seriously ill and some of you die.

That’s not a good deal.

Yet that is what is happening from these products, and they’re being pushed on everyone, when – as I’ve argued – if you’re recovered, infected, you’re immune.

If you’re a child, you’re not vulnerable to the virus.

Healthy young people do not need it.

And for pregnant women we do not know that it’s safe, and we should not, on the precautionary principle, be administering it tp them.

And yet your governments are pushing these on you. it’s not a public health measure.

If it was a public health measure, the three or four things I’ve just said would be true.

It’s not a public health measure.

And bearing in mind all I said earlier about discarding normal pandemic handling plans and replacing them by absurd lies, that have had the effect of frightening people – and we think that that was the objective.

And it’s not just this extreme toxicity; it’s the variability.

Now, let’s just look at the Pfizer bumps, because there’s a nice range there.

“Nice” is the wrong word, sorry; I’m sounding like a scientist.

These are people.

These are people who’ve suffered, and some of whom have died.

But as you cast your eye across the axis at the bottom, you can see that some of the [batch] numbers there are associated with very small numbers [of adverse effects].

They’re so small, you can’t see it registering on the thickness of the Y-axis marking zero.

And yet, close to them, there are a whole bunch of batches that have got 400 to 600 serious adverse events per lot, and they’re roughly the same size.

That means it’s not the same product that’s got this Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine that it says on the box or or on the vial.

It’s not the same stuff.

It’s not the same stuff. I’m certain.

It’s not.an assessment. It’s not “maybe”…

I’m absolutely certain.

There is something called the law of mass action, which applies to all biological properties I’ve ever seen.

And if it does come to court, I will walk you through the history of that:

Why it is that shape and why this means it cannot be the case that these middle Pfizer lots are the same material as the ones immediately to the left and to the right.

These drug companies are highly professional outfits.

They know how to manufacture reproducibly, and we saw that with the flu vaccines over decades.

They know how to do it and hey haven’t done it.

I’m afraid I’ve come to the conclusion that they’re doing it on purpose,.

Because they’re so professional, and after a year they know this data.

This data is their window onto the world.

They can go into VAERS and they can filter for their own products, and their own lot and batch numbers and they can see what’s happening.

They know.

So the fact they haven’t stopped this tells me that they’re at least okay with it.

And I fear that this is deliberate.’

There is a chapter on polio. It’s been a long time since I read that book but if I remember right, polio is not anywhere near as dangerous as we’ve been led to believe (a fraud like almost everything else), and for some reason polio disappeared when DDT usage disappeared. Pretty strange.

https://oceanofpdf.com/authors/suzanne-humphries/pdf-epub-dissolving-illusions-download/
 
“12. The “Disappearance” of Polio
 
The polio story is a haunting one: long, complicated, and ugly. It’s not a story you will have read or that the medical profession will be able to tell. Beyond the smoke and mirrors lie sketchy statistics, renaming of diseases, and vaccine-induced paralytic polio caused by both the Salk,{354},{355} and the Sabin vaccines. Dr. Albert Sabin’s oral polio vaccine (OPV) continues to cause paralysis in vaccine recipients today.{356},{357}
 
Despite many well-documented historical problems, polio and smallpox vaccines serve as the anchor for vaccination faith today. The subject stirs passion in those who believe their ancestors were affected by the dreaded virus or their children could be crippled by it today.
 
Many believe that a disease called polio has been eradicated in the Western hemisphere. Most everyone thinks that polio was eliminated by vaccination. But to fully understand where polio went, one must understand what polio was. Then, it becomes clear that it is impossible to eradicate it with a vaccine. However, the vaccine did lend itself to many well-documented—although not well-known— problems.”

@26 Peter previous open thread (only just managed to catch up with).

Gardens full of cane toads.

“When about 15, me and a mate decided to go bird watching one day. That was in Perth…”

At our beach it was watersports. Sven (swedish) and Ken (oz) were the first to set up for tourists, placed an old shipping container on the shore and a cane shade, rented out windsurfers and canoes.

Sven was a quiet person, Ken was stocky and well built, sort of walked around as ‘a single unit’, talked in a way to keep the flies out, was like he’d just been released from military service. Both decent people, but we could wind up Ken and so we did…all in a friendly but mischievous way, and he would, after any surprise, play the part.

I myself tend to believe that COVID is man-made, but I do have to ask: Is it customary for embalmers to be informed of the vaccination status of the corpses they handle?

 
I’ve watched videos from back then of embalmers who couldn’t inject their embalming fluid. Poking around they found long stringy clots in the deceased’s veins. Some more than a foot long. Clots like anyone in medical science, or embalming had ever seen, before the clot shots arrived.

I think that proves nothing.

 
I completely agree, but once you’ve felt Covid you’re unlikely to forget it and what I got the second time was exactly the same, except perhaps worse. I thank my lucky stars I had Ivermectin on hand tho.

 Even if the virus was somehow synthesized, your body would still be able to produce antibodies against it.

 
Didn’t happen for me, because it was worse than the first episode. My antibodies were apparently on vacation?

 Viruses are just amazing … things. Organisms? organized molecules? nano-machines?

 
Sheer speculation here, George, but did you hear about the nano-bots and graphene that were in the clot shots? I had read a sci/fi book written in 2005 about humans who could fly with no wings, or anything else attached and they could live forever, with no fear of ever catching any disease, because of nano-bots inside them could ward off disease through a perfected AI. They called themselves Trans Human and there were Purists within the society that wanted to remain human and continue the life cycle with deaths and rebirths during the intervals. Each called the other an abomination. Story was forgettable, but the author ended it with the warning that within twenty to twenty five years we would see the first testings to try and make Trans Humanism a reality. Again got no proof whatsoever, but sure got me wondering if that wasn’t what the clot shots were actually for, especially since they were secretly developed by our military?

 
 Do you realize that if it weren’t for the existence of viruses, there’d be no oxygen in the atmosphere (at least not enough to support animal life)?

 
We have millions of viruses inside us at any given time. The vast majority of them are good viruses, which keep us alive, just like the good bacteria does. Most of the bad ones are discovered and eradicated by our immune systems, before they can cause damage.

 Something like almost 10% of our DNA is ancient viral DNA. Then there are bacteriophages, which are viruses that attack and eat bacteria. Some of the most primitive viruses.

 
I believe the bacteriophages are what can cause polio, whether you’ve had their vaccine, or not? I know they can cause measles, which is found in certain soils and again contracting it that way matters not whether you’ve been vaccinated for it, or not. However, having had it once our immune system can likely kick in and ward it off, but because it’s born from certain soils eradicating measles completely is an impossibility. The unvaccinated causing measles pandemics is more propaganda.

Following on  my no. 4, in response to Dungroanin, evidence has already emerged today that Burnham is splitting from Starmer over Israel.
 

The prime-minister-in-waiting issued a video on social media in which he dramatically apologised for Labour’s response to the conflict in Gaza, and admitted that the government had been too slow in calling for a ceasefire.

It was designed to target Chinese. Perhaps DNA to an extent but certainly the elderly. When it run through oldies homes here, they died like flies. China due to the one child policy has an aging population. It also has very high density populations.
Those initial outbreaks, China, Italy, Iran, it was mostly the elderly that died. Serious cases amongst younger people were rare.

I posted the comment below over on the Iran thread because the Pepe link but it fits better here
 
 
Pepe Escobar has a posting up at Strategic Culture 
How Khamenei’s last act is defeating NATOstan 
What I want to focus on is the end of his piece 
 

And then of course there’s China – which supported the nearly flatlined MoU from the beginning, and now recognizes why Tehran could not care less anymore.While no one was watching, Beijing expanded their yuan liquidity pool to $500 billion (doubled Bond Connect quotas); launched a gold clearing hub in Hong Kong; and announced yuan-denominated gold futures.The Bank of China clearly sees how global yuan demand is expanding beyond trade into “investment, financing, pricing” and, crucially,” reserve holdings.” Translation: accelerated de-dollarization. Barbaria better be set for a rude awakening.

 
What Pepe didn’t detail about what China introduced is (from ZH)
 

The RMB introduced new electronic bond and foreign-exchange trading platforms

 
If there really is going to be a shift away from the US dollar then the foreign exchange institution and process needs to change from the existing FX structure 
 

The foreign exchange (FX) market is the world’s largest and most liquid financial sector, seeing an average daily trading volume of roughly $9.6 trillion. As a decentralized, over-the-counter (OTC) network, it allows governments, international banks, corporations, and retail traders to exchange national currencies to facilitate global trade, hedge risk, or speculate on macroeconomic shifts.

 
 If oil from Iran is going to be sold in Yuan then it needs to go through an exchange structure/process other than the highly manipulated by private parties current FX world. 
The alternative architecture to the BIS/SWIFT and FX markets with the added reconnection to intrinsic value money is the China contribution to our civilization war, IMO…..I am looking forward to China stating clearly how it can process oil in Yuan sale for Iran.

Non covid excess deaths are the big one. I mentioned the very large data that was put together in Japan. 30 million people. Unvaccinated showed no excess deaths. Excess deaths amongst the vaccinated was very high.

‘China, Italy, Iran, it was mostly the elderly that died. Serious cases amongst younger people were rare.’

I have to take your word for it Peter.

They played up Italy here early on and it paralleled what they were saying here which was a lie vis-a-vis the virus.

They kept showing the same hopsital in Bergen county and Middlesex county here in the state of New Jersey in the US.

I was in the ‘epicenter’ here in the US.

And yes, some hospitals were full and people died but it seems that is due to the cocktail of drugs that came down from on high as treatment recommendations.

As was mentioned above none of the fields and airport hangars and all the other shit they set up and advertised the fuck out of were ever used let alone near capacity themselves as was fearmongered.

People here really started dropping dead and coming down with all manner of weird heretofore unseen diseases and rapid-onset cancers and all manner of just shit I’ve never seen before…this all started happening in earnest once the shots were introduced.

In the west although it was a very real virus, it was also a political disease. It was massively pumped in the west by politicians and media. Trump’s China virus. Used as a propaganda weapon against China.
 
In Italy, the worst of it was in one region. The Po valley area I think. There it had spread before anyone knew much about it. Iran many in government and other official positions died or were severely ill. I never bothered with any vaccine and as far as I know, never got it, even the last O strain that was quite mild compared to the other strains and did the rounds here after the political quarantines had been lifted.
Far enough quarantining an outbreak until it is under control, but the quarantines here at state borders was absolute madness – political medicine not scientific medicine.

That’s at least a remarkable coincidence, but without a paper trail one could just as easily pin the blame for the blood clots on COVID itself.

 
There is a paper trail malenkov, amongst the doctors at FLCCC and various doctors that participated in Sen. Ron Johnson’s various summits on Covid. The clots were borne from the shots, not Covid. I read in the obits all the time of middle aged folks dying suddenly and although that did occur, before Covid, or the shots, it still makes me wonder? Not enough autopsies being performed to know one way, or the other, eh?

Yeah, mercury.
 
I have never understood why mercury, which we know from long experience is extremely toxic (and results in things like childhood retardation) can be considered safe when used in dental amalgam (combined with other metals).
 
That just make zero sense to me, and I’ve always requested composite fillings rather than amalgam since I learned what that shit consisted of.

Is the test for ‘covid’ even accurate?

 
Nope, because it wasn’t designed to identify a specific virus. Dr. Kary Mullis expressed that opinion many times, before his mysterious death in 2019, just before america introduced their PCR test. Quite a coincidence, huh?

What does the inventor of the PCR process have to say about the vast chasm between PCR as a general macro-level tool of science versus how it is (mis)used for ‘practical’ commercial applications?
[this is specific to ‘hiv-aids’ but applies across the board and is very important]

 
I agree A.R., that info is quite important in understanding all the propaganda that went down, over their plannedemic.
