Omerta

Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant "if I live, I will kill you. If I die, you are forgiven." Such is the rule of honour.

Just so long as you now know the difference between one of the four pillars of an economic and political union and measures designed to stop folk from catching the plague.

The Scottish Government could have aligned itself with the EU's travel and border policies throughout, but has ended up going along with Brexit Britain instead - which is even less 'close the borders' gutter rhetoric than the Scottish Government.

I hope that sinks in eventually, because it won't ever be forgotten.

Attach UV disinfectant to your head 🧐

Some people need to be shown pictures of themselves trying to eat mud and that as toddlers to show them the air isn't going to murder them.

I try not to let individual politicians and their words/actions annoy me too much, so fair play to John Swinney for working me, a grown adult who should know better, into the biggest fucking seethe fest of all time with that "vertical drinking" patter.

Been reading Deepti's take-down of a paper on long Covid published in the Lancet. It's funny - she is slagging off every shortcoming in the paper. Where did she read about these shortcomings? In the paper, where the authors (like every other scientific author) stated what the limitations in their study were.

The study is "heavily flawed" because parents of ill children are filling in the data rather than the sick kids themselves. Honestly, she is losing the plot. An editor of a journal would take these criticisms and bin them (you often get reviewers who don't understand what they are reviewing). Every study has limitations!

Then we get this:

Remember 10 years in jail for a false declaration of you travelled from a red list country and £10k fines for unlawful gatherings? 

There was also the police helicopter following a couple walking their dog in the Yorkshire Dales, and also a righteous 'did ye aye?' story from Eamonn Holmes' wife on some stupid morning show about jumping out the way of a man who brushed past her in the shop and asking that he respect her space. Lapped up by hordes of Lovejoys who aren't prepared to move on from March 2020.

If I had complete power over this silly little island for a day I would make up some nonsense about an imminent and unpreventable nuclear threat and image.png.04f43cf241b81dd91f5ec5baaaa61d5f.pngwhile everyone clawed each other's faces off.

Isn't her much vaunted ONS study basically doing the same thing, essentially self reporting?
