    Some people have kept saying the vaccines don't work, seems they were right, as our Ben will testify.

    The vaccines don't stop you getting Covid, they just stop you reacting badly to it (or dying which is the extreme bit of reacting badly).

    In which case Chris, and I'm sure you're right, could you explain the logic behind vaccine passports, which have been introduced in Wales, and we in England are threatened with under Plan B ?

    The vaccine passports are a joke, as are the home lateral flow tests , the results of which are easily faked. They're just token efforts to give a semblance of safety to help us get back to normal.Stopping people dying was always the main issue.

    We incarcerated thousands of OAPs in care homes with no rescue plan and they died prematurely because of the lack of COVID-19 control measures. Stopping people dying was never the main issue.

    I posted about this subject previosly and was ridiculed :
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I live in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. The Province as well as a few others is under Lockdown, i.e cannot leave or enter the Provinces, all public transport , flights and Chinese New Year public gatherings etc. have been suspended. The advice from the Chinese Government is to "Stay indoors, close all windows, do not use A/C, wear a face mask at all times until further notice".
    The reasons that I'm writing this are because I'm bored, being secluded in my room for days and as a warning, if needed, do not come to China for a holiday, work etc. until the virus has been contained, eradicated or a vaccine is developed.

    My dear friend Norder, posted to us a video of Anandamurti. (P.R. Sarkar) But here is Anandamurti on :

    #Party_Politics #Politicians (26 January 1958).

    "Party politics is one of the factors which stands, or tries to stand, in the way of human unity. In fact party politics is even more dangerous than disease-causing germs. In party politics all the refined attributes of the human mind, such as simplicity and the spirit of service, slowly but surely get totally destroyed. Party affiliation commands more respect than individual ability; service to self, not service to people, is the main motto; ministerial office, rather than human welfare, is considered superior; and mass deception, political somersaults, etc., are most common phenomena.

    Instead of rectifying themselves, politicians want to accomplish everything through their grandiloquence. By identifying the weaknesses in others and by resorting to bombastic language, they incite one section of people against another so that they can usurp the seat of power and cling to it. Human beings will have to remain vigilant against persons of this type. Politicians want to poke their noses into every aspect of life: social, religious, educational, literary, etc. Under the hypnotic spell of power, politicians remain oblivious of the fact that experience and wisdom in various spheres of life cannot be acquired by merely mouthing high-sounding slogans from public platforms.

    Honest and benevolent individuals should carefully steer clear of party politics. The question may arise, In the absence of party politics, will honest individuals succeed on their own in forming governments or in serving the state? Is there any necessity for organized endeavour? In answer to this question I will say that those who are honest, who really want to promote human welfare, and who believe in a world government and the ideals of Ánanda Parivára [a blissful, universal family], must possess the spirit of mutual cooperation. They may form themselves into boards exclusively for the purpose of rendering social service collectively (and not for fomenting politics), but it will not be proper for such boards to contest elections.

    People should cast their votes for deserving human beings – not for the lamppost holding the party ticket.

    To further the interests of the party, party politics may publicly oppose something which is often secretly encouraged. Communalism, provincialism, casteism, etc. – none of these are considered bad for the sake of party interests. The only identity of human beings is that they are humans – living beings. Party politics strives to keep people oblivious of this fact – it tries to pulverize the psychic wealth of human beings under the steamroller of party interests."

    Don't expect this bit of news to surface on the BBC News anytime soon, or on SkyNews, C4 or ITV, nor in the Grauniad or any of our Lockdown obsessed MSM.

    "Freedom Prevails: Florida registers nation’s lowest COVID case numbers. Florida is now outperforming every state in the contiguous United States in terms of new COVID-19 cases per capita. And they did it all without a Vax Pass system, widespread business closures, mask mandates, and/or draconian lockdowns."

    This one will get well and truly buried and no mistake.

    One of our near neighbour's dad is in hospital in Salford and he can have one daily designated visitor who must abide by COVID-19 restrictions.
    My father-in-law is in hospital in Bolton and he cannot have any visits whatsoever because of COVID-19 restrictions.
    Both are mainline NHS hospitals who should operate under national guidelines I would imagine.
    My wife is asking why the difference - but is not getting an answer.
