T is just what the numbers released yesterday morning say:

Compare to 2019 (before COVID-19):

So we’re looking at almost 2,000 additional deaths (for a single week)…. more than before.

Maybe it’s over 2,000 if one includes Scotland and Northern Ireland.

UK deaths in December 2024 about 15% higher than before COVID-19

N THIS 2024 page updated less than a day ago we see data that the mainstream media would rather ignore.

New ONS data released yesterday morning shows that in England and Wales we had 11,950 dead people… just in Week 50 (2024). Before COVID-19 it was about 10.5k for Week 50. So we’re losing about 1,500 more people (than before) in one week in England and Wales alone.

This isn’t about very old people. People in all age groups die in growing numbers.

Why is the media ignoring this? The population grew 1-2%, so an increase so significant merits investigation and hard questions.

HAVE just received a curious E-mail.

Suppose there are over 400,000 “Manchester households” (it does not say Greater Manchester, but set that aside for now).

Manchester City Council now says: “We would like you to join over 40,000 Manchester households that already receive their council tax bill by email.”

Like the roughly half who got connected (or conned) into “smart” meters? After a decade of constant nagging?

What would be the actual advantage of having “council tax bill by email”?

Quoting Manchester City Council: “The benefits of this are:

- It saves money on printing and postage that could be better used for our city and vital front-line services

- It saves paper and is kinder to the environment”

Well, that’s just classic greenwashing, and not only a duplicate point (they basically make the same argument twice).

It may seem OK to only receive some E-mail, but no paper trail exists if that’s done. And some places require actual paper, e.g. bills with addresses on them. They would not admit or accept (or access) some E-mail that you “forward” to them (and can be easily forged).

Paper trail means paper.

Hard paper.

If you want to save the planet, don’t start by culling small paper items (like receipts).

Think BIG; cull cars and jets, especially rich people’s jets that pollute for only one person.

The oligarchy tries to blame the “peasants”… for receiving 1-page A4 paper sheets. How much pollution does one tanker generate? Or some space “mission” (rockets)?

Go sell your BS agenda to someone else. Paper trails exist for a good reason and I have all my bills from the Council going over a decade back. Those can be invaluable as proof of things.

Gmail is meanwhile killing E-mail accounts it deems not active enough (new policy). Way to burn bills, invoices etc. without consent.

They also keep changing the format (they did so again this morning at 9:30AM), so comparing old sheets to new sheets gets harder.

DID not imagine the Labour Party would challenge COVID-19 policies of the Tories. I was right, that just didn’t happen.

Now we have like 50,000 more people than before dying each year in England and Wales. Cause? Unknown. They don’t want to talk about it, let alone investigate.

New ONS data is out today (about mortality). In England and Wales, for Week 49 of 2024, deaths rose ~1000 people/week (compared to pre-pandemic times). Same is true for Week 48, Week 47, and Week 46 (maybe a bit less, no less than 800-900/week). They say they’ve “solved” COVID-19 but after mass vaccination we end up with about 10% more deaths than before the pandemic, even in late 2024. I checked this every week on Wednesday, i.e. every time they updated data. The population size only rose by 1-2%, why did deaths rise by about 10%?

How do they expect people to trust authorities (and the press) if they keep gaslighting the public about this?

After scandals (cover-ups) like the tainted blood and Horizon, why should we assume there’s nothing more to see here? When will more be known? 40 years from now?

s of today, the BillBC says that today and tomorrow we should expect ultrasonic wind speeds, so we should probably enter some bunker:

Also tomorrow:

Obviously it’s some data issue, but their exception handling or input sanitation could use some work.

HAVE just returned home, feeling both satisfied and upset. I basically just got back from sun-soaking trip, saved about 70 pounds, but the annoying thing is, I spent a lot of time reporting injustice and there was a corporate effort to cover up the injustice instead of tackling this injustice.

Let me explain.

Today at the till I was served by the same lady whom I reported before, after she had stolen one pound from me (in change) THREE TIMES IN A ROW…

Not kidding.

I’ve been trying to avoid her since then and when reporting her I said the goal wasn’t to get her sacked but to stop the stealing (it’s impossible to get such basic maths wrong “by accident” three times in a row).

Today I could not avoid her. She just sat in place of a colleague when I was in a queue (taking a colleague’s seat)… and did it to me ONCE AGAIN the same short-changing (one pound; same as always) along with the same excuse, so again I had to wait there for a boss to “correct” the mistake, then stood there at Customer Service to report the person (who already did this to me and is still there… and still up to the same old things). My assumption is that she can short-change (one pound) about 10 people per shift and then pocket a tenner without the register detecting an anomaly. Maybe she tips herself (bonus) that way… but at whose expense and at what cost to the reputation of the business, the time/patience/composure of the customers and so on?

But wait, it gets worse.

At first Customer Service turned down my request to report this worker or their stealing, in effect covering up for her. They decided to say all the managers were “at the/a meeting” (which I doubted, it’s just a classic excuse and that shop has about 10 managers on duty). I persisted, persevered, and only after (several other) further arguments they magically found a manager who could come out and pick the report. He seemed a little junior for a manager, but let’s not be too judgemental of appearances. They then made an excuse for why a manager becomes available when the issue becomes more of a nuisance or a risk. Why lie to the customer? Never lie to the customers. Whether the customer is “always right” or not, do not lie.

This is really awful and I said that if they have staff stealing from the shop, that’s one thing, but don’t steal from the customers. Pay them better perhaps; one man next to me at the till had a good joke about how “they need to make money”. He didn’t doubt this was intentional; it kept happening. It will probably keep happening unless I can avoid this cashier every time in the future. But what about other people? They might think it’s an accident or not even notice.

Businesses being apathetic to staff that steals is a very big problem. I’ve already spent about an hour (all combined) dealing with and reporting this issue. They don’t compensate me for the time and trouble; heck, it doesn’t seem like they even do anything with my reports, so what’s the point reporting it to them? Maybe even an external entity would treat this issue as too “low-value” to merit proper investigations. This means people can get away with a lot of cheating (or petty thieving) as long as it’s not “big enough”.

In hindsight, it was always hard to get a hold of a boss to report these issues too. It was slow, cumbersome, almost impossible – maybe by design. Maybe Customer Service people even get trained in stonewalling people.

The world is becoming a cruel place, not just to staff but also to customers.

‘ve taken a look at yesterday’s new numbers from ONS and it looks like deaths are still about 10% more than they should be.

Does the Labour Party plan to investigate the cause/s for this sharp rise in deaths?
