Quote: Scarlet Pimpernell "Far be it from me to question the intelligence of the far right but do they not get the irony that they are going to London to protect a statue of the man who was part of the group of allies responsible for defeating those they hope to emulate. I suppose any reason for a demonstration and civil unrest.'"

You've bought into the media and Sadiq Khan narrative there.

*Some* hard right groups will make an appearance, that's for sure. But there are Veterans groups and ordinary people rallying to stand against the feral rats we've seen running riot over the last week, seeing as the police have been pathetic. Watching as authorities across the board and the police kneel literally and figuratively to a violent extremist group with a minority view, and watching them seek to erase pretty much all of British history through violence, intimidation and coercion because [i'racism'[/i has got the quiet majority seething.

At least one Vets group has complained to GMB after being labelled 'hard right'.

Saying that, you do realise anyone not sucking up to BLM is now hard right. I'm hard right. My family are hard right. My friends are all hard right. My Bangladeshi mate at work is hard right, and so is his wife. All of my friends are hard right, including those 'of colour'. Probably a few lefties on here are now hard right. Ain't that a kicker.

Quote: Zoo Zoo Boom "These tables relate to the US - what has that got to do with the UK death by age?'"


I didn't say UK and in your question neither did you, I quoted death rates from covid. They are pretty much identical across the globe in every country and this is a good example table. Only variations are in countries like India and some of the developing countries where higher percentages of deaths are starting to appear in younger people.
I could have posted the UK figures for last week, the percentages are roughly the same.

Where did you get your data from?

"Brian McDermott, with a wry smile, nods when asked if he remembers a specific incident which made him realise he was a prick. 'I do', he murmurs.":22575.gif

Quote: Zoo Zoo Boom "I am not talking about the likes of JHB, Morgan and Young I am talking about the likes of Sridar and Gupta who educate our university students - are you saying they are not experts?'"


You did mention JHB so I did.

As for Gupta, yes, she's an epidemiologist but maybe you should watch this cringeworthy interview with Andrew Neil from October, where in the first 2 minutes makes a total fool of herself by saying (prompted by the human potato) the 50,000 cases per day projected by the governments advisors was nonsense. Where did we get to? 85,000 on one day in December?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxrG4hW3q2s

Gupta has been on the fringe of the scientific consensus since the beginning of the pandemic and is a strong proponent of herd immunity. Many of her predictions have been proved to be false and she has a poor track record on predictions.
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfr ... oronavirus

Herd immunity, the Great Barrington Declaration and the "Libertarians" behind it. Have a read of this.

It's not entirely critical and I think a well balanced review. We should not discount alternatives, that's counter productive - all options on the table.

The problem with Gupta in particular is that she's made grand statements and assumptions that have proved to be very, very inaccurate or just plain wrong. She also seems incapable of re-assessing her own position..

To be honest you can find all this out for yourself, I don't know why I'm doing it for you.


I actually work with some of the guys in the Oxford Zoology department, spoke to one of them today in fact. They are doing interesting work on Covid.

I think you knew very well I was quoting the the UK - and quoting one week is hardly representative.

Sadly, that one week will have included thousands of 'events' (deaths), so the sample size isn't small and likely is representative.
