SciNote 36 16th Dec. Covid winter wave : ‘herd immunity’ - false concepts still influential
‘Lockdown or open up’ false choice causing unnecessary illness. Fewer vaccines, no - testing, clean air in schools, masks in hospitals. open.substack.com/pub/tandre…
Radio 4 PM programme platformed Dieter Helm pro-oil company 'academic' implying UK high electricity prices due to too much investment in renewables - rather than marginal gas prices. On the day UN says we have to drop emissions by a fifth in next four years.
Why does BBC PM programme headline one boat crossing channel? More important than wildfire in New Forest ? 5th heatwave this year?, failure to invest in solar/wind? bombs in Ukraine?, Israel rejecting Gaza peace?

Important find. Israeli intelligence linked firm, which is involved in the Gaza genocide, has won a contract for the new national facial recognition roll out.
What could possibly go wrong?
Has anyone involved in the contracting process thought to ask about whether Zionist intel agencies will be able to access facial recognition data in London, Birmingham, Manchester, Belfast or Glasgow? What safeguards have been written in?
Do people begin to see the future vista of enhanced Zionist power in the UK going forward?
It's not just about the 'lobby'. Zionism is a clear and resent danger I the UK as well as in Palestine.

BBC Radio 4 Briefing Room with Aaronovitch - rather tired repetition of 'well off oldsters vs struggling youngsters' . Some ideas about making housing affordable but ended the discredited 'we have to get more growth, so we wouldn't need to raise taxes'
BBC R4 PM Evan Davis trying to maintain ReformUK's 'migration' as the main problem despite mentioning that 'cost of living' and 'health' are the two top public concerns . They say Reform is 'making the weather '- with BBC's help over last 3 months.
A place of pilgrimage, of contemplation out of time and space, it's very illogicality challenges our own false gods. tandrewbroadbent.substack.co…

1. 23 year old petrified woman who was caught in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii in 79 A.D.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The casts in Pompeii are not "petrified" bodies, but instead are plaster casts made from the voids created after the bodies covered in ash decomposed. pompeiisites.org/en/pompeii-map…

In Haaretz Hebrew, 22 May, former Israeli PM Olmert says he used to think that the mass killing of civilians in Gaza was a result of a "tragic war" & he denied the charges of genocide & war crimes, but now he thinks: it is an intentional annihilation. archive.ph/3vvOi
