Data Contradiction Means Office for National Statistics (ONS) Began Shamelessly Lying About Number of Dead People

Weeks ago it said:

Over the Christmas period we will not be publishing Deaths registered weekly in England and Wales so the next publication will be available on the 5th of January and shall cover the weeks ending 16th and 23rd of December. Due to a processing issue, there has been an undercount of death occurrences in week ending 9th of December. Due to this the figures for week 49 will now be published in the next weekly mortality publication coming out on the 5th of January.

And this:

Undercount of deaths

Only a few minutes ago it released the numbers again. But they are the same!!!!!!!

Here:

Same undercount

In order to potentially save face for Rishi (unelected PM who pretends to be a GP now in some media photo ops) ONS delayed and delayed data. NO RELIABLE DATA ON DEATHS SINCE DECEMBER 2ND!!! And they did not bother to correct what they already admitted to be an “undercount”.

A new year’s resolution? Hide the dead? Undercount them?

There is no notice in the site saying that they are still undercounting or that there is missing data. Sarah Caul’s update looks like this now:

Sarah Caul no notice

Sarah, does it take more than 3 weeks to ‘find’ those ‘missing’ death certificates? What on Earth is going on here? ‘Traffic-shaping’ of numbers? This is not acceptable. Taxpayers are paying to be informed; ONS says it’s not subjected to political pressure, but maybe that’s tacitly changing.
