Brendon O'Connell is nothing if not fiercely independent.
I don't think he agrees with anybody, but he isn't following anybody else's line. So he brings something independent along with him (as far as anybody can tell these days anyway) so he is worth listening to, if you can follow his eclectic mix of AI produced video and his habit of hopping from one argument to another without much of a warning.
Still, he's good training for the independent viewer, with a style very different form almost everyone else.
The Modern Weaponising of the British State

David Starkey, genuine National Treasure (being one of the very few still breathing who understands the British Constitution and how we got here) holds forth at the Institute of Economic Affairs (no it's not something out of "Yes Minister") on where it all went wrong.
Plenty of food for thought here, including the clear (but unstated) idea that words are indeed spells. Well, if they act like spells, then they are indistinguishable from spells, especially when they come freighted with an assumed meaning that actually isn't appropriate to the particular usage ...
Maybe we should insist that all politicians should wear a conical hat to remind us.
But judges don't get a free pass either:
"... although you pay obeysance to the idea of democracy, it's too dangerous to allow it to work without controls ... instead you have this marvellous thing, 'liberal democracy', which means .... democracy that is limited by law ... above all it's not about the rule of the majority, but the protection of minorities ... "
"Human Rights Law and International Law has a separate authority that can only be perceived by the judges, and because ... this would frequently clash with Parliamentary Sovereignty, somebody would have to arbitrate it .. "

Government of the People, By the People, For the People

So if the people themselves are the government as this implies, what need we of a separate government?
If the people could keep order amongst themselves, why do we need to elect a government?
The true meaning of "anarchy" is "no government".
Not necessarily "no order".
It's an idea we must explore because such exploration would either confirm or deny our need for a government of people as opposed to government by the people themselves through local methods practices and/or institutions.
Given that almost nobody thinks our current system of central governments that naturally accrete all powers to themselves is at all satisfactory, and indeed seems to be approaching its final stages of corruption and decomposition, perhaps we should accord such an exploration a high level of priority.
The Origins of American Medical Hegemony

It is widely agreed that science advances by the scientific method, whereby all are engaged in the search for truth and theories stand until they fall, either to logic, or to experimentation, or to observed behaviour that improves or even disqualifies the theory.
Theories that stand the test of time gain wide acceptance but are not "proven" in the sense that they cannot possibly be improved by a better theory - that option is always recognised as a possibility.
For this process to succeed, scientists must challenge the status quo. Thus was Newton's theory of gravity displaced by maverick Albert Einstein's theories of relativity.
So one might deduce that the maverick who dares to challenge the status quo is indispensable to the advancement of true science. One might well be right, as this position is entirely logical.
Sciences that claim to be complete and fully known and therefore impervious to any proposed advancement cannot therefore be accepted at face value as there is always the possibility that new knowledge will come along that would improve or replace it.
Just as in matters statistical, correlation cannot be regarded as proof of causation, so in matters scientific, consensus cannot be taken as proof of correctness. Both correlation and consensus are regarded as indications of possibility, but not as proof.
(Climate activists take note!)
But this article is not concerned with the climate controversies, but with medical history.
The American Medical Association (the AMA) is apparently guilty of excluding all the existing fringe (ie: "maverick") medical practitioners from membership by means of its founding code in 1847.
Therefore, medical science as practised by the AMA refutes the scientific method and cannot therefore be regarded as a science. The AMA is not therefore founded on science.
It is founded on commercial (or other) interest.
And where commercial/other interest meets government regulation, corruption never seems to be far behind ..
The rest of the world trails miserably in its wake. For now.
Lies, Damned Lies, and Covid Statistics

This site has followed the Covid official statistics from the start.
It was reasonably obvious that the pandemic was faked, from the start.
The obsession with recording every death within 28 days of a positive Covid test outcome regardless of any other factor (such as falling under the proverbial bus), together with the immediate discarding of all previously devised "pandemic planning" measures in favour of "vaccination" with a novel intervention developed at warp speed (meaning that only a short-term safety profile could possibly have been assessed) was striking evidence that the figures were being fiddled. This in the face of previously accepted knowledge that vaccinations were ineffective against a corona virus (such as the common cold) due to the rate of viral mutation, was frankly inexplicable to those old enough to know better.
And what happened to all the usually expected seasonal flu cases that never materialised in 2019/2020?
Oh, and did I mention that no figures were ever published for the accuracy of the Covid PCR (or any other) test, and that if you test a healthy population then what you get is not a bunch of infected individuals, it's a true measure of the accuracy of the test since all positive results will be false. Yet that is exactly what was done.
Once the "deaths" tailed off in the normal seasonal fashion, media and political attention switched seamlessly to "cases" identified by testing the asymptomatic population. And then Boris unbelievably came out with his policy on masking without which we had demonstrably (even according to the official statistics) come right through to July 2020 without incurring any significant level of excess deaths from all causes ... so yes, the elderly and infirm had been dying as usual but had all been mislabelled as Covid deaths, by official decree - and to make sure this wasn't identified, post-mortems were suspended, also by official decree.
This cannot reasonably have been accidental, coincidental, or merely incompetent, we have to conclude that it was an intentional and deliberate ruse to fake a non-existent pandemic in the minds of the public.
I could go on, but that's sufficient.
Now we live with the aftermath of the inoculations - and no, it's not at all pretty.
The "safe and effective" (so take them all) are also "unavoidably unsafe" (so you can't sue the manufacturer if you suffer a "rare side-effect"). Didn't they mention that when you took the jab?
Mark Playne enlists the help of AI to bring us if not the exact truth, at least the truth that can be reasonably deduced, again from the available official published figures.
I didn't notice anything like this emerging from the Baroness Hallett Covid Inquiry ...
