After two days, she has over 70,000 followers on a platform nobody has heard of.

anonymous have fleeced each one of them for an average of about 7p..

Surely they would be better off just making a donation of their own money rather than engaging in criminal activity for such small beans..

Bumbling fool isn't what you want in a global pandemic as demonstrated by our death rate.

he is no bumbling fool and I am certain our death rate is somewhat on the over egging side of the coin whereas others are somewhat under reporting.

I totally agree, I just can't see a good reason why they are doing it!

Because in our great nation, if they under reported the figures the likes of Peston would take glee in starting another global recession with an "exclusive". At the minute we are getting reports that if you have C19 its a C19 death. Puts to bed any future inconvenient digging around but whatever they report you get the chicken licken sky is falling in lot pointing at the failures

My uncle died from c19 complications which ignores the fact he was way beyond due with chronic COPD - is that a good enough example? Or my friends dad with ALM in his nursing home with other terminal folks, their deaths reproted as C19 and not a result of the underlying condition that put them into hospice in the first case? My step-dads brother, C19 but ignores the fact he too was (as my mum put) beyond his sell by date (on borrowed time) following chronic heart disease.

There are 3 stats for you, all put down to C19 as the cause of death - I'd suggest it was just an aggravating factor in their cases. Still, I dont want the disease but the idea that somehow we are far worse hit than anywhere else in europe sees a bit stranger than fiction

You must be very proud with your contribution? Did it take you long to think that one up?

Very sad for your uncle but you ignore one data set that goes against your theory, excess deaths which have nothing to do with whats on the death certificate, not just uk but whole of the world.

Europe Excess mortality. Nearly double last year.



Z score for england




It all here maybe read up about it you might actually learn something.

Apologies for thread detraction just have to challenge egregiously wrong opinions.

Does that not back up his theory?

We have lost thousands 'extra' mainly due to corvid.

other countries have lost thousands extra, due to something that was probably going to kill them even if they didnt catch Corvid.

Similar death counts, just recorded differently.

Or have i completely misunderstood?

Interesting.
Can you please stop implying that Hopkins represents the Right?

She's a nasty little bigoted nationalist. Whether the rest of her "thinking" is left or right wing is a total irrelevance.

If you believed in collective pay bargaining and nationalised industry and you're a nationalist and a racial bigot, then you're a left winger and you're knuckle headed bigoted arse.

If you are a free market capitalist and you're a nationalist and a racial bigot, them you're a right winger and you're a knuckle headed bigoted arse.

You keep implying that Hopkins comes in for abuse and gets chucked off social media platforms because she's right wing. Wrong. It's because she's a bigoted arse.

Her opinions are NOT those of a reasonable right winger. And if you share her opinions, don't pretend to yourself that they are just normal right wing opinions. They aren't.

You are exactly right that we've had a lot of extra deaths and I think a lot of people seem to be missing that.

You could look at any death as merely accelerating what was bound to happen at some point; it's always just a question of degree. Baby died 75 years early; bad. 80 year old dies 15 mins early coz doctor whacked up the morphine; good.

I think the issue is that some people are failing to recognise that many of the deaths that have been hastened by Covid19 infection haven't just taken 15 minutes off someone's life expectancy, it's taken years away.

Saying "oh well, he was already ill' about an individual may well be true and comforting to a degree, but when you step back and look at the numbers in aggregate you can see an awful lot of extra deaths have occurred this year even with the measures that have successfully reduced the infection's spread.

It's demonstratively different to the increased death rate caused by "normal" seasonal flus, for example.

The thing is that the UK is basically one of the few global metropolis with a selection of local feeder conurbations around it. Within days of this disease emerging in China it was on a plane and in Heathrow. It was in London before Christmas. A million packed tube commuters every day for three months, a million people packed in bars and restaurants for three months. Millions of Londoners heading out to the regions for three months, many millions coming in to London.

Just on the grounds of how the UK is structured we were always going to get hit extremely hard. Right from the very beginning it was, and remains, a balance between keeping the money coming in and not overwhelming the NHS and having people dying in the street.

The road map was laid out at the outset. No early lockdown as you can only control a free population for so long and the release would be defined by how many patients the NHS had capacity for.

In many ways it was made pretty clear that the death toll was not relevant. It has been heavily loaded with platitudes but it has always been about keeping people working for as long as possible, minimising the time in lockdown for social unrest reasons and then getting everyone back to work ASAP.

The govt will get all the blame but just like we never like to ask why one hospital is worse than another next door, nor will we ever ask why some care homes were unhit and others decimated.

For those who argue we should have gone into lockdown earlier then there is a failure to fully understand just how long you can keep free people locked up voluntarily. We had a lockdown that worked on the British people being asked to stay in and then choosing to do so. In other countries it had to be done at gun point and others required guns on the street and paperwork to enforce it. Some countries will have snuck in aggressive laws that will be abused later to oppress the people.

Those who say we shouldn’t be coming out of lockdown now arguably don’t fully understand economics.

No one could ever have got it right. Countries that went a different route had different population densities, different levels of overseas arrivals and departures and different types of living accommodation. All in, we’ve been ok (obviously there are very many utter tragedies that many of us have a link to) for a nation of people who move around an awful lot, socialise a huge amount and have at the heart of our country an enormous global metropolis.

And at a time when it is important for everyone to work together, people like Hopkins who aim to tear people apart for financial gain are less palatable than normal.

I know some Aussies are pricks, but to tar them all with the same brush seems harsh.
