Ever wonder why men like Mitt Romney , Lindsey Graham , Allen West , and John McCain representing the so called far right of the Republican party , are virtually indistinguishable to what has happened with the progressive Washington takeover ( Obama ’ s watch ) ?
All of them to the last would raise cane about any proposed cuts in the defense budget , as government continues to grow , along with our national debt , and in the process liberty dies .
Of course there are no defense cuts at all , just a curbing of spending INCREASES @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you won ’ t ever hear that from the nationalized media , or the paid to preach Evangelicals like Jerry Falwell , Pat Robertson , James Dobson , Hal Lindsey , Cal Thomas , even Pat Boone , as they are all eggs in the same Progressive and Neocon basket .

Why ?
Some peace loving Christian ministers like L.M .

KEN’S CORNER: Christian Warmongers: A Designed Primer for WW3?
By TLB Contributing Writer: Ken LaRive
Ever wonder why men like Mitt Romney, Lindsey Graham, Allen West, and John McCain representing the so called far right of the Republican party, are virtually indistinguishable to what has happened with the progressive Washington takeover (Obama’s watch)? All of them to the last would raise cane about any proposed cuts in the defense budget, as government continues to grow, along with our national debt, and in the process liberty dies.

Of course there are no defense cuts at all, just a curbing of spending INCREASES in an off-the-chart defense budget. But you won’t ever hear that from the nationalized media, or the paid to preach Evangelicals like Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, James Dobson, Hal Lindsey, Cal Thomas, even Pat Boone, as they are all eggs in the same Progressive and Neocon basket. Evangelical Christians did not want Ron Paul as President, and they, along with the status quo, would seemingly do anything to stop him. Why?
Some peace loving Christian ministers like L.M. Vance are naming them, and describing them as the Christian axis of evil. In his writings he illustrates the thinking and motivations of men such as these, along with Doug Giles, Bryan Fisher, and the well known Ellis Washington who is now vying for greatest Christian warmonger of all time. The so called “reformed” pastor, Michael Milton, also gets honorable mentions from Vance.
Just like all religions, Christianity has its differences. It is amazing that men who profess to know the teaching of Jesus Christ would place a gun on top of a bible, while others would try to actually forgive and Love his enemy, treat people as they themselves wish to be treated, and both revel and work for peace.
In his latest essay, L.M. Vance gives a brief but amazing biography of Michael Milton,
“…the newly elected chancellor/CEO of Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, North Carolina. Milton holds a B.A. from Mid-America Nazarene University, an M.Div. from Knox Theological Seminary, and a Ph.D. from the University of Wales, Lampeter. He is the former pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Chattanooga, Tennessee, in addition to founding two other churches and a Christian school. Milton is the host and speaker on Faith for Living, which can be seen on television and heard on radio. He has also released three music CDs and is the author of several books.”
Can it be coincidence that on October 14, 2001, Milton’s Reformed Theological Seminary was “approved by the NC SAA Program to receive the GI Bill under the provisions of Title 38 and 10, United States Code!” Could this monetary paper trail leading directly to him from Washington be the reason he would side with perpetual war? Or is there something more fundamental in his faith-base to consider? A justification, if you will… Here is an excerpt from a recent post of Dr. Milton as presented on his Faith for Living blog, hosted by the Reformed Theological Seminary:
“Scripture teaches that God has ordained government for the good of man. Civil authority, according to St. Paul, has been granted the power of the sword to punish evil, thereby protecting the innocent: “For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil” (The Epistle to the Romans 13:4 KJV). The present talk of defense cuts flies in the face of our nation’s duty and our proud heritage.”
Mr. Vance wrote in rebuttal:
“Milton is likewise deceived about the real mission of the military. He thinks they are “our defenders” who “defend this nation” and protect “this nation from the continuing threats to our very existence as a people.” The government provides a military to “defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” U.S. troops “fight ‘over there’ so we don’t fight ‘over here.’” They are “in the midst of a battle for our way of life.” But is this what the U.S. military actually does? Unfortunately, most of what the military does is more offense than defense, more foreign than domestic, and more civilian than martial. I think Milton needs a course in DOD 101.”
Tell me it isn’t true. Could it be that Evangelical Christians are so hungry to see the return of Christ on earth that they would promote a world war to make it happen? Would they sacrifice the lives of millions, if not billions of “heathens” to make it happen? Surely history is not set in stone! If a man like Dr. Paul had a plan for peace, why on earth wouldn’t a Christian want that too?
Dr. Milton is suggesting that the mission of the military is to defend this nation from threats to our very existence as a people. Is this what the current military does? No, emphatically, it does not. It is the destruction and reconstruction for nation building, for a hungry military industrialist complex in league with international banks and a Federal Reserve who prints money out of thin air to finance it on the backs of America’s future. The future of our children, and that is the reality of it.
As the Christian Right describe military spending cuts as irresponsible, un-American, traitorous, draconian, and such, they stir up a disproportionate amount of fear and hatred for anything not in Washington’s control, while arm-chair imperial Christian nationalists hang on every word as truth. From one side of their mouths the Loving teachings of Christ are formed, as on the other Reich-wing nationalism and monocular, anti-Christian justifications for war spews forth like blood from an open wound. It is the blood of innocence.
There seems to be a disparaging duality in the Bible, and not just between the Old and the New Testament. On one hand, words from Romans can justify the killing of millions with the blessings of a wrathful and vengeful God, in direct opposition to the gentile and Loving words of Jesus who tells us to Love one another, to forgive and turn the other cheek. How would one come to promote preemptive war when in the garden before being arrested he told his disciples to put away their swords, as he who lives by it will die by it.
There are true justifications for war. Righteous war, but the teachings of Jesus has nothing to do with the justification found in Deuteronomy and Leviticus, where god tells the Jews to kill everyone in their path. What Christian faith, no matter how twisted, could justify that? Surely, a justification for war should not be to steal your neighbors land, natural resources like gold or oil, killing all to the last man while enslaving his wife or children as you own. Romans 13 could be used is a justification for a national-security state whose objective is unending and perpetual war, policing the world, imperialism, nationalism, and the undeclared, unconstitutional wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Pakistan, and all others, and the never ending prodding, threats, and murder of Iranians since the middle 50’s as well. BP grew fat as the Shaw did his puppet work, and Americans not only paid for it, but are responsible for it.
But you see most people only realize what they are told to realize and know nothing of facts or truth. Puppet governments are temporary, but memory is not. Tit for tat and unending war comes to both factions because the words of Christ are not heard, not even by so called Christians in name only. What we have left flies in the face of the ignorant, as blowback.
Unwitting or not, their fear and hatred could be the primer for WW3, a nuclear war. Fear and hatred is the catalyst for the master’s war machine, hungry to be fed. God bless the Evangelical Christians in the name of Jesus Christ, and show them the Love buried deep under the black soot of evil, incarnated by the hand of men who play them as puppets for their malevolent design.
Author’s note: From the writings of M. Scott Peck, MD, psychiatrist and theologian, in his book …
“Farther along the Road Less Traveled”, page 107, is the following: “How are we to interpret the Bible? Although they place such importance on it, the fundamentalists, in my experience, strangely misuse the Bible. Actually the term “Fundamentalist” is a misnomer. The more proper term is “inerrantists”, those who believe that the Bible is not only the divinely inspired word of God but the actual transcribed, unaltered word of God, and that it is subject to only one kind of literal interpretation, namely theirs. Such thinking, to my mind, only impoverishes the Bible.”

“The clergy…believe that any portion of power confided to me [as President] will be exerted in opposition to their schemes. And they believe rightly: for I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man. But this is all they have to fear from me: and enough, too, in their opinion.” –Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Rush, 1800.

“Among the sayings and discourses imputed to him by his biographers, I find many passages of fine imagination, correct morality, and of the most lovely benevolence; and others, again, of so much ignorance, so much absurdity, so much untruth, charlatanism and imposture, as to pronounce it impossible that such contradictions should have proceeded from the same being. I separate, therefore, the gold from the dross; restore him to the former, and leave the latter to the stupidity of some, the roguery of others of his disciples. Of this band of dupes and imposters, Paul was the great Coryphaeus, and the first corruptor of the doctrines of Jesus.” — Thomas Jefferson to W. Short, 1820 — See Jefferson’s Bible
••••
“The doctrines of Jesus are simple, and tend all to the happiness of man. But compare with these the demoralizing dogmas of Calvin. 1. That there are three Gods. 2. That good works, or the love of our neighbor, is nothing. 3. That faith is everything, and the more incomprehensible the proposition, the more merit the faith. 4. That reason in religion is of unlawful use. 5. That God, from the beginning, elected certain individuals to be saved, and certain others to be damned; and that no crimes of the former can damn them; no virtues of the latter save.” — Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Waterhouse, Jun. 26, 1822

Creeds have been the bane of the Christian church … made of Christendom a slaughter-house.” — Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Waterhouse, Jun. 26, 1822

From the Author, Ken La Rive – We in the Liberty movement have been fighting to take back this country for less than a decade, peacefully and with the love of God and country in our hearts. Our banner has been trampled on and displaced by a multitude of distractions, further eroding our nation and the cause for Liberty. And so, as we are pulled by forces we cannot fathom, powerful entities with unlimited resources stolen from our future, unaccountable trillions printed out of thin air and put on our backs as debt, we must formulate the most pitiful of all questions any patriot might ask in the final hour: Are we going to fight for our master’s tyranny, or are we going to demand the return of our civil liberties and Constitution? Are we going to choose The Banner of Liberty, or the shackles of voluntary servitude? Will it be a war for corporate profit, or a war to regain our ability to self govern, as the blood and toil of our forefathers presented to us, their children, as a gift? I fear that decision is emanate. I fear that any decision will be a hard one, but my greatest fear of all is that the decision has already been made for us.

The Pharma Loaded U.S. Soldier Part 1: Taking Inventory of Risks
By Pam Long
Since 2001, the modern combatant has endured numerous deployments overseas to Afghanistan and Iraq after a decade of relative peace following the Persian Gulf War in 1990. Across all services, members have engaged in traumatic combat situations with enemy, friendly, and civilian casualties resulting in 13% of veterans diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). [Citations referenced in this article are contained in the full report.]
Military personnel have returned from dangerous deployments to face both public scrutiny about disputed wars and personal struggles with recollections of harrowing ordeals. Military encounter barriers to therapeutic interventions, with a priority given to therapeutic interventions. US military members are routinely taking up to 19 prescription medications to enhance performance and reduce stress. The collateral damage is that, when current active duty, reserve members, and the National Guard are included, 20 veterans die by suicide every day in the US.
Suicide Stats
The 2018 Department of Defense Suicide Report (DoDSER 2018) details 325 active duty suicides with an additional 1,375 suicide attempts by 1,219 unique individuals. The reserve component reported 81 suicides and the National Guard reported 135 suicides. The 2019 National Veterans Suicide Prevention Annual Report summarizes 6,139 veteran suicides in 2019. Veteran suicides have been increasing annually since 2006. The number of veteran suicides has exceeded 6,000 annually from 2008 to 2017. Military members and veterans have a higher risk of suicide than their civilian counterparts. Veterans ages 18-34 having the highest suicide rate among all military subgroups with an increase of 76% from 2005 to 2017.
The two aforementioned reports have detailed the frequency, demographics, event characteristics, basic health information, contextual factors or stressors with each military suicide. These reports are intended for surveillance only and do not provide any analysis of causation.
Table 1. Population by Rate of Suicide Population Rate of Suicide US Active Duty Military 24.8 per 100,000 (2018) US Reserve Military 22.9 per 100,000 (2018) US National Guard 30.6 per 100,000 (2018) US Civilians age 17-59 18.2 per 100,000 (2018) US Veterans 27.7 per 100,000 (2017) US Veterans age 18-34 44.5 per 100,000 (2017)
Behind the Numbers
Surprisingly, DoDSER 2018 reports that 47% of active duty suicides had zero deployments. The 2019 Veterans Suicide Prevention Annual Report indicates that 919 suicides were from never federally activated reserve units and National Guard. Hazardous duty is a co-factor in PTSD and suicides, but this high rate of military members who have never deployed indicates other potentially non-trauma factors are contributing to the suicide rate. What else is going on behind the numbers?
The goal, a participant in crafting the policy said, was to give SSRIs a ‘green light’ without saying so.
Age Risk & Suspect SSRIs
Veterans age 18-34 have the highest suicide rates at 45 per 100,000, while veterans age 55-74 had the lowest suicide rate at 27 per 100,000. Because younger veterans have a greater risk, other exposures should be investigated that older veterans do not have. One possibility is the increasing trend of military suicides in the US began in 2006 and is temporally correlated with the Pentagon’s 2006 policy that permitted and encouraged SSRI medications, discussed in America’s Medicated Army:
It wasn’t until November 2006 that the Pentagon set a uniform policy for all the services. But the curious thing about it was that it didn’t mention the new antidepressants. Instead, it simply barred troops from taking older drugs, including ‘lithium, anticonvulsants and antipsychotics.’ The goal, a participant in crafting the policy said, was to give SSRIs a ‘green light’ without saying so. Last July, a paper published by three military psychiatrists in Military Medicine, the independent journal of the Association of Military Surgeons of the United States, urged military doctors headed for Afghanistan and Iraq to ‘request a considerable quantity of the SSRI they are most comfortable prescribing’ for the ‘treatment of new-onset depressive disorders’ once in the war zones. The medications, the doctors concluded, help to ‘conserve the fighting strength,’ the motto of the Army Medical Corps.
Total Load of Prescription Drugs
A Veteran Affairs study of 157 veterans with PTSD reported an average use of 6.4 ± 3.8 prescribed drugs with a maximum of 19 prescribed drugs. These drugs were from the following 17 categories: anti-depressants, anti-psychotics, anxiolytics, hypnotics, mood stabilizers, stimulants, anti-cholinergics, anti-convulsants, anti-hypertensives, diuretics, cardiovascular drugs, diabetes drugs, dyslipidemia drugs, analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, gastrointestinal drugs, and narcotics.
Military members are at risk of cascading prescriptions due to treatment from numerous doctors over their careers. They are not likely to have one primary doctor reviewing their medical file for drug interaction or cumulative effect. Veterans are especially at risk of cascading prescriptions because as people get older, they become more sensitive to drugs. This is because medications stay in the body longer due to less muscle tissue and the liver and kidney do not process medications as effectively so medications become more concentrated.
Our findings suggest that stimulants may be a contributing factor for incident PTSD.
Risks of Stimulants in PTSD
Prescription Stimulants and PTSD Among U.S. Military Service Members reported the risk of PTSD was significantly higher in military personnel who were prescribed stimulants than those who did not. The risk of PTSD was significantly higher as the number of prescription stimulants increased and the cumulative days of use increased. Among 25,971 military personnel, with ‘incident PTSD’ defined as those who did not have a history of PTSD at baseline and developed new-onset PTSD, stimulants contribute to new-onset PTSD:
We found an association between prescription stimulant use and incident PTSD. Even though only a small percentage of our sample were prescribed stimulants, our findings suggest that stimulants may be a contributing factor for incident PTSD. The use of stimulants is known to increase norepinephrine levels in the brain and previous research has demonstrated that increased noradrenergic levels at the time of a traumatic event create more vivid, long-lasting memories and fear of the event, which increase the risk of developing PTSD (Debiec et al., 2011).
Mulitiple Meds & Suicide Risks
Blanchfield Army Community Hospital (BACH) Polypharmacy Clinic reports: “The increased use of central nervous system depressants (CNSD) and psychotropics are one of the many factors that contribute to suicidal behavior in soldiers.” Fort Campbell reported polypharmacy (chronic use of 5 or more drugs) ranged from 2.2% to 7.6% of soldiers for each brigade, after screening out soldiers using polypharmacy short-term for surgery medications:
A pharmacy-led team established the Polypharmacy Clinic (PC) at Blanchfield Army Community Hospital. Of the 3,999 soldiers assigned, 540 (13.5%) met the initial screening criteria. Success of the pilot program led to the mandatory screening of all other Fort Campbell, Kentucky, brigades. During the first 12 months, 895 soldiers were seen by a clinical pharmacist, and 1,574 interventions were documented. Significant interventions included medication added (121), medication changed (258), medication stopped (164), lab monitoring recommended (172), adverse reaction mitigated (41), therapeutic duplication prevented (61), and drug-drug interaction identified (93). Additionally, 55 soldiers were recommended for temporary duty profiles based on their adverse drug effects. Ten soldiers were recommended for enhanced controlled substance monitoring.
895 soldiers were potentially saved from polypharmacy adverse reactions. Despite the Office of the Surgeon General directing this unprecedented polypharmacy screening pilot program at Fort Campbell, the extent to which this successful program was adopted by all military duty stations or continued beyond 2013 is unknown. The 2018 VA Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Guidebook does not list polypharmacy screening as an intervention. The VA only targets one prescription drug, opioids, in the Substance Abuse Disorder program. The VA assisted 10,500 veterans in 2017 with opioid substitution.
Pain Meds & PTSD Risk
The Army’s Health Promotion, Risk Reduction, and Suicide Prevention Report (2010) reports that 14% of the force is taking an opiate medication, often in addition to prescriptions for depression and anxiety. Research of pain medication and PTSD has found “Those with PTSD had significantly higher use of analgesic medication (both opiate and non-opiate), as compared with non-PTSD patients. PTSD symptoms, as measured by the Posttraumatic Symptom Scale, were significantly higher in subjects who were prescribed analgesics.” Among veterans, suicide rates were highest in VHA patients diagnosed with opioid use disorder.
Physical Health as a Signal
48% of active duty soldiers had visited a Medical Treatment Facility in the 90 days prior to death for general health, not mental health and not substance abuse. Physical health deteriorates with PTSD and should be included as a signal for suicide risk screening. [Link to PDF -See the full report for research details.]
In conclusion, Military personnel are routinely prescribed numerous medications with Black Box warnings for suicidal ideation, mania, psychosis, violent behavior, delusions, hallucinations, and psychotic behaviors. Many of these drugs are addictive and prescribed without a plan to wean off dependency. Instead the needed therapeutic dose will increase over time. New soldiers anecdotally report being prescribed medications for the expected stress of Basic Training, which will begin the cascading prescriptions for deployment induced trauma and pain from injuries, and will cumulate with additional prescriptions later, for deteriorating physical health associated with unresolved PTSD symptoms. The total pharmaceutical load on the modern US soldier will continue to result in over 6,000 veteran suicides per year until polypharmacy screening and mitigation is implemented and prioritized at every Veterans Health Administration program.

thelibertybeacon--2020-09-24--Graham Brady’s UK Covid Rebellion Has the Numbers to Succeed

Brady ’ s getting the worst parts of the disastrous Coronavirus Act reversed may be the best that can be hoped for at present .
Short of an all-out revolution .
In the interview Brady gives to Freddie Sayers at Unherd , he raises the very valid and curious point – why isn ’ t the Left leading the charge against the government for the damage it is doing to ordinary citizens ?
We ’ re not entirely convinced the 1922 Committee is acting out of a concern for a love of liberty and the democratic power of the parliamentary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of power when the country votes them out for the miserable way it ’ s handled the virus panic .
The British people are really caught between the proverbial rock and a hard place , between the British Conservatives , who have never cared one bit for the average Brit more or less , and the Blairite Labour Party under Establishment pillar , Keir Starmer .
A party that has been an equally ardent supporter of lockdown , neoliberalism , the EU and the forces of globalism in general .
This is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the powerful 1922 Committee , which brought down Margaret Thatcher back in the day , may be able to get around particularly undesirable , liberty-destroying sections of the Coronavirus Act 2020 when it comes up for renewal next week .
The bill is likely to be passed , without any amendments being possible , but a way to remove undesirable parts of the bill is to reclassify them from ‘ parts that will AUTOMATICALLY TAKE EFFECT when the bill is renewed ’ to ‘ parts that must be ACTIVELY VOTED ON before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unpopular measures could thus be removed .
Unless Matt Hancock finds a workable accommodation with Sir Graham Brady , the chairman of the 1922 Committee of Tory backbench MPs , the government faces the prospect of defeat next Wednesday when the Coronavirus Act 2020 comes up for its six-monthly renewal in the House of Commons .
The scale of backbench unhappiness is such that , according to Steve Baker , who is working alongside Sir Graham , “ the magic number was exceeded with 24 hours ” of his beginning to canvas support @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Victory would require Labour and SNP MPs to seize on the opportunity to inflict a humiliating defeat on the government by voting with the Tory rebels .
Indications increasingly suggest that this could happen .
An increasingly dispirited Whips Office , which feels ignored and disrespected by Downing Street , is especially concerned at the sight of the former ERG “ Spartans ” leader , Baker , at Westminster furiously tapping away on his phone – a colliery canary of trouble ahead .
The government is equally concerned that the rebellion is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whose role as chairman of the 1922 Committee makes him the most authoritative channel of backbench opinion .
In a sign of how seriously Downing Street management is taking the senior shop steward ’ s challenge , on Monday evening the prime minister privately went to see the 1922 ’ s executive committee .
The primary complaint is that the government is using powers granted to it under the 1984 Public Health Act and 2020 Coronavirus Act to enact previously unconscionable measures without any prior debate in the Commons .
Brady has condemned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ habit of ruling by decree.
” MPs were prepared to cede considerable authority to the government in March in a period of acute crisis when there appeared to be only weeks , if not days , to “ flatten the sombrero ” to save the NHS from being overwhelmed .
But Boris Johnson ’ s admission in his statement to Parliament today that the latest curtailments ( which include further restrictions on hospitality opening hours and the number of people who can congregate at weddings , funerals and other public , private and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at least six months has alerted MPs to the reality that government by decree may last until a vaccine is approved .
If , indeed , a vaccine is approved .
This is a war that will not be over by Christmas .
Far from persuading potential rebel MPs that a new crisis is looming , the performance of the government ’ s chief medical and scientific officers , Chris Whitty and Sir Patrick Vallance , at their press conference yesterday has heightened consternation that the government is over-reliant on advice predicated upon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ economic and civil liberty considerations .
The likelihood of executive mission creep was foreseen back in March by David Davis and Steve Baker , who pushed the government into adopting an amendment reducing from two years to six months the period in which the powers of the Coronavirus Act must be renewed by parliament .
That renewal debate will now take place next Wednesday .
However , having been enacted as a statutory motion , it is unlikely that The Speaker will permit a simple amendment to the Act .
Rebels would therefore @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole or repeal it as a whole – there will be no opportunity to fine-tune .
Very few MPs would be prepared to vote down the Act in its entirety .
Any such rebellion would be an exercise in political futility .
But an alternative avenue remains open .
Whilst the legislation may be declared unamendable , Sir Graham Brady could seek a scrutiny clause appended to the end of the Act .
Rebels are pinning their hopes on this prospect .
They may find a friend in the The Speaker , Sir @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clear his intense irritation with Matt Hancock ’ s disregard for informing parliament first of major legal changes like the “ rule of six ” and for the government ’ s brusque imposition of restrictions in his own Chorley constituency .
What this scrutiny postscript may encompass is now a subject of negotiation between Brady and the government , although the principle would be that fresh regulations would require parliamentary approval before they could be enforced .
Given the potentially large number of regulations this involves , including those that the government might @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in session ( for instance during the coming Christmas recess ) , the government may argue that such a provision is unrealistic in the current climate .
But a precedent was created in the drafting of the European Union ( Withdrawal Agreement ) Act for the creation of the European Statutory Instruments Committee as a sifting committee .
This committee would review what “ made negative ” statutory instruments should be converted into “ made affirmative ” statutory instruments .
According to research by the Hansard Society , this year the government has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instruments before parliament .
But of these , 175 were “ made negative ” procedures which ministers signed into law .
They will remain the law unless parliament actively annuls them within 40 days .
A further 53 have been “ made affirmative ” statutory instruments whereby the minister still enjoys the initiative of signing the measures into law , but they will cease to be legal unless actively approved by the Commons ( often the Lords too ) within a statutory period ranging from 28 to 40 days .
A sifting committee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the category of draft affirmative – which a minister can not sign into law unless the draft is approved by both Houses following a debate ( or the Commons on its own if it is a financial statutory instrument ) .

Brady’s getting the worst parts of the disastrous Coronavirus Act reversed may be the best that can be hoped for at present. Short of an all-out revolution.
In the interview Brady gives to Freddie Sayers at Unherd, he raises the very valid and curious point – why isn’t the Left leading the charge against the government for the damage it is doing to ordinary citizens?
We’re not entirely convinced the 1922 Committee is acting out of a concern for a love of liberty and the democratic power of the parliamentary system, rather more at the loss of power when the country votes them out for the miserable way it’s handled the virus panic. The British people are really caught between the proverbial rock and a hard place , between the British Conservatives, who have never cared one bit for the average Brit more or less, and the Blairite Labour Party under Establishment pillar, Keir Starmer. A party that has been an equally ardent supporter of lockdown, neoliberalism, the EU and the forces of globalism in general.
This is a bit technical but Graham Brady , chairman of the powerful 1922 Committee, which brought down Margaret Thatcher back in the day, may be able to get around particularly undesirable, liberty-destroying sections of the Coronavirus Act 2020 when it comes up for renewal next week. The bill is likely to be passed, without any amendments being possible, but a way to remove undesirable parts of the bill is to reclassify them from ‘parts that will AUTOMATICALLY TAKE EFFECT when the bill is renewed’ to ‘parts that must be ACTIVELY VOTED ON before the bill passes again’. So unpopular measures could thus be removed.
Unless Matt Hancock finds a workable accommodation with Sir Graham Brady, the chairman of the 1922 Committee of Tory backbench MPs, the government faces the prospect of defeat next Wednesday when the Coronavirus Act 2020 comes up for its six-monthly renewal in the House of Commons.
The scale of backbench unhappiness is such that, according to Steve Baker, who is working alongside Sir Graham, “the magic number was exceeded with 24 hours” of his beginning to canvas support for an insurrection among fellow Conservative MPs. Victory would require Labour and SNP MPs to seize on the opportunity to inflict a humiliating defeat on the government by voting with the Tory rebels. Indications increasingly suggest that this could happen. An increasingly dispirited Whips Office, which feels ignored and disrespected by Downing Street, is especially concerned at the sight of the former ERG “Spartans” leader, Baker, at Westminster furiously tapping away on his phone – a colliery canary of trouble ahead.
The government is equally concerned that the rebellion is being led by Sir Graham Brady, whose role as chairman of the 1922 Committee makes him the most authoritative channel of backbench opinion. In a sign of how seriously Downing Street management is taking the senior shop steward’s challenge, on Monday evening the prime minister privately went to see the 1922’s executive committee.
The primary complaint is that the government is using powers granted to it under the 1984 Public Health Act and 2020 Coronavirus Act to enact previously unconscionable measures without any prior debate in the Commons. Brady has condemned ministers who “have got into the habit of ruling by decree.”
MPs were prepared to cede considerable authority to the government in March in a period of acute crisis when there appeared to be only weeks, if not days, to “flatten the sombrero” to save the NHS from being overwhelmed. But Boris Johnson’s admission in his statement to Parliament today that the latest curtailments (which include further restrictions on hospitality opening hours and the number of people who can congregate at weddings, funerals and other public, private and sporting functions), would likely last at least six months has alerted MPs to the reality that government by decree may last until a vaccine is approved. If, indeed, a vaccine is approved. This is a war that will not be over by Christmas.
Far from persuading potential rebel MPs that a new crisis is looming, the performance of the government’s chief medical and scientific officers, Chris Whitty and Sir Patrick Vallance, at their press conference yesterday has heightened consternation that the government is over-reliant on advice predicated upon worst case scenarios that is trumping competing economic and civil liberty considerations.
The likelihood of executive mission creep was foreseen back in March by David Davis and Steve Baker, who pushed the government into adopting an amendment reducing from two years to six months the period in which the powers of the Coronavirus Act must be renewed by parliament. That renewal debate will now take place next Wednesday.
However, having been enacted as a statutory motion, it is unlikely that The Speaker will permit a simple amendment to the Act. Rebels would therefore have to rubber-stamp the legislation as a whole or repeal it as a whole – there will be no opportunity to fine-tune. Very few MPs would be prepared to vote down the Act in its entirety. Any such rebellion would be an exercise in political futility.
But an alternative avenue remains open. Whilst the legislation may be declared unamendable, Sir Graham Brady could seek a scrutiny clause appended to the end of the Act. Rebels are pinning their hopes on this prospect. They may find a friend in the The Speaker, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, who has already made clear his intense irritation with Matt Hancock’s disregard for informing parliament first of major legal changes like the “rule of six” and for the government’s brusque imposition of restrictions in his own Chorley constituency.
What this scrutiny postscript may encompass is now a subject of negotiation between Brady and the government, although the principle would be that fresh regulations would require parliamentary approval before they could be enforced.
Given the potentially large number of regulations this involves, including those that the government might seek to implement when parliament is not in session (for instance during the coming Christmas recess), the government may argue that such a provision is unrealistic in the current climate.
But a precedent was created in the drafting of the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act for the creation of the European Statutory Instruments Committee as a sifting committee. This committee would review what “made negative” statutory instruments should be converted into “made affirmative” statutory instruments.
According to research by the Hansard Society, this year the government has so far laid over 230 Coronavirus-related statutory instruments before parliament. But of these, 175 were “made negative” procedures which ministers signed into law. They will remain the law unless parliament actively annuls them within 40 days. A further 53 have been “made affirmative” statutory instruments whereby the minister still enjoys the initiative of signing the measures into law, but they will cease to be legal unless actively approved by the Commons (often the Lords too) within a statutory period ranging from 28 to 40 days. A sifting committee could determine which statutory instruments should fall into the category of draft affirmative – which a minister cannot sign into law unless the draft is approved by both Houses following a debate (or the Commons on its own if it is a financial statutory instrument).


thelibertybeacon--2020-09-24--COVID Brave New World – Resist!

COVID Brave New World – Resist!

COVID 19 is being used to create a global fascist dictatorship .
From New Zealand to the U.S , so-called western democracies have adopted and developed the Chinese model of technocracy to create a single biosecurity State .
This globalist corporate State is to be centrally controlled and administered by a distant global governance cartel of appointed bureaucrats .
Tasked only to serve the interests of a tiny , disproportionately wealthy group we can call the parasite class .
Every aspect of your life will be monitored and controlled , as we move towards the ultimate surveillance State .
Your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to travel , conduct business , access public services and to purchase essential goods and services will be dictated to you , and restricted , by the State , based upon your biosecurity or immunity status .
This transformation process is well underway .
You are no longer a human being , you are a biosecurity risk .
As such you may be removed to a military controlled quarantine camp as and when the State sees fit .
Detention without trial will be the norm .
All protest will be outlawed unless the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ class .
Your children will no longer be your own .
They will belong to the State .
Parental consent for medical procedures will be presumed or , in the case of mandatory procedures , not required .
Once the biosecurity State is firmly established , consent will be a distant memory .
We have a diminishing window of opportunity to stop this global fascist dictatorship .
Violent protests will not work .
Not only are they morally indefensible , they are tactically naive .
Violence is the language of the oppressor .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ instigation of the use of force .
To crack down , in response to a violent uprising , is the fervent hope of the oppressor .
It allows the State to exercise more , not less , authoritarian control .
In reality , to stop it , all we need to do is refuse , en masse , to comply .
We must do this with our eyes open .
It won ’ t be easy and many of us will face harsh punishment from a desperate tyrant .
However , if we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we are condemning future generations to unimaginable levels of slavery and misery .
In order to foist this upon us , the apparatus behind it has invested billions in propaganda .
The fascist technocracy , presently being constructed at an alarming pace , requires our cooperation .
Without it , the biosecurity dictatorship can not gain its desired authority .
Our representative democratic systems are not what our forebears gave everything to build .
The parasite class have hollowed them out , replacing the organs of State with their own , leaving only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our delusions and keep us believing that we have a semblance of control .
It is a fool ’ s errand to attempt to use their system to win our freedom .
It is designed to control us .
Appeals to their courts will never deliver justice to us .
Temporary , small victories will always be overturned .
Nor can we vote harder , expecting yet another of their puppets to save us .
The purpose of the representative democratic apparition is to centralise all global power in the hands of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and , while we persist in our electoral folly , we will not alter it .
We must build something new to replace it .
The obvious solution is the decentralisation of all power to the individual .
We must construct a voluntary society .
Without us , without our obedience , the parasite class is currently nothing but a group of ineffectual , wannabe plutocrats , sat on piles of paper , created from nothing and worth nothing .
If we don ’ t obey , there are no rulers .
Should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , their usury will be fruitless ; if we decide not to pay their taxes , we cut will off their economic exploitation and if we never vote for their bureaucrats , we won ’ t consent to their nominated , elected aristocracy .
We are the scientists and the engineers , the doctors and the nurses ; we are the builders and the architects , the mechanics and the farmers ; we are the soldiers who kill and die for their enrichment , we are the police officers who enforce their unlawful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ build and work in their factories , we are the office workers and bank clerks who administer their system , the shop workers , the programmers , the writers , the artists , the teachers and we are the people who , through our belief in their mythical authority , allow the parasite class to control us .
We are the meek , we are the receivers of all knowledge and all wisdom .
We possess all the technology we need and we are the experts .
It is our world , leased @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Without us , the parasite class are utterly incapable of controlling anyone or anything .
We must create , not destroy .
We must liberate science , technology , art and knowledge itself from their occult control .
We must build alternative decentralised systems , enabling humanity to live as a coexistence of free , sovereign beings .
We must focus upon self sufficiency , we must support each other , turn our backs on the control systems of the parasitic State and build our own autonomous communities .
We must refuse @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to centralise power .
We can do this by rejecting , outright , the concept of authority .
No one ever has any right to tell anyone else what to do .
But nor does anyone ever have the right to cause any harm or loss to another human being .
We can live in harmony because we are capable of respecting each other equally , without reservation .
We know this .
Not a single human being on this Earth has the right to order any other to obey their authority .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Therefore , this power can never be derived from us .
We do not have it to give .
The State ’ s claim of authority , gleaned from their electoral anointment ceremony , is a charade .
Their authority does not exist in reality , only in our imaginations .
We don ’ t need anyone to tell us how to live .
Nor how to deal with the tiny minority incapable of taking responsibility for their own actions .
A voluntary society would be a society without rulers , not a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t need their systems of authority to live in relative peace and harmony and we never have .
Spontaneous order is all around us .
We already live the overwhelming majority of our lives free from State control and without the need for anyone to impose any rulers upon us .
With a few exceptions , no State compels the farmer to grow crops , no State coerces labourers to pick the harvest or engineers to design and operate packing plants and no State forces anyone to transport the produce to market nor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system isn ’ t controlled by any single authority .
It is an intricate , often global , network of free individuals , each acting in their own best interests , creating a harmonious social order way beyond the operational control of any State .
The State has no part in this social order of immeasurable complexity .
This ordered social construct , bringing food to the family table , is entirely voluntary .
Our society is built from millions of such systems and trillions of voluntary actions and exchanges that happen every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
All we need do is recognise it , and then seize it .
The State is , and always has been , entirely unnecessary .
It is a hindrance , not a utility .
What benefit does the State and its regulation bring to our food supply chains ?
It claims to protect it .
Protect for whom ?
It removes the free market to protect the profits of multinational corporations .
It imposes taxes , raising everyone ’ s costs , to pay for its wars of neocolonialist exploitation .
It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ margins for everyone from growers to retailers , pushing some into poverty to be preyed upon by the same corporate State .
Its food standard regulations , supposedly designed to keep us safe , effectively reduce food quality , creates massive waste , reduces nutrition , causes more sickness and lengthens the queues at the pharmacy .
Again for the benefit of the parasite class and their pharmaceutical corporations .
In a truly voluntary , free market , what would a supplier gain from providing low quality , expensive produce to consumers ?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Only State regulations can possibly facilitate lowering quality , while raising prices , without anyone in the supply chain , other than the oligarchs at the top , profiting from it .
Corporate profit is the bottom line and the State ’ s sole purpose is to protect it .
Yet , somehow , we remain convinced that society could not possibly order itself spontaneously , without the forced coercion of the State .
Despite the fact that , in great measure , it already does .
We neither lack the ability @ @ @ @ @ @ @ society .
We lack the confidence , because this pernicious system is purpose built to rob us of it .
We are taught , practically from birth , that respecting authority is a virtue .
To obey is to be good , disobedience is punished .
What could we be if instead we taught our children to think critically , that all of us have equal , inalienable rights , never to cause harm or loss and to take responsibility for themselves because there is no claimed protection from any authority ?
Unfortunately @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the doctrine of authority is vigorously reinforced through perpetual repetition and the systemic application of reward and punishment .
We are taught what we are allowed to know .
This prepares us to be productive workers and responsible members of the State .
We are then permitted to work until we are no longer productive , with every last ounce of profit milked from us , as we shuffle off to our graves on pharmaceutical life support , before the State swoops in to hoover up the remnants of our lives .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
We are programmed to believe in the farcical notion of a benevolent State .
A State which exclusively serves the parasite class and one in which our lives are the real commodity .
COVID 19 is not a high impact infectious disease , it has low mortality rates and is absolutely comparable to influenza .
It isn ’ t even clear that is can be identified as a disease at all .
Sadly , it seems the vast majority of us are so adapted to our authoritarian environment that we are incapable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by our superiors .
COVID 19 is nothing more than a casus belli for the Third World War .
As the representatives of the State openly admit , that war is a hybrid war .
Just as there is no such thing as a healthy human being , nor is there any distinction between war and peace .
All is war and we are the enemy .
The military objective is to grind us into docile and compliant slaves , serving the new normal State .
We must face reality .
In the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fourth Industrial Revolution , ” our labour is no longer required .
We are destined only to consume , and that consumption is to be ruthlessly controlled .
As are we .
There is no black and no white , no right-wing nor any leftists , there is no gay and no straight , no Republicans nor Democrats , no Conservatives nor Labour supporters .
These are just some of the divisions forced upon us by the parasite class , and its compliant lapdog the mainstream media , to keep us divided and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We are in this together .
All of us .
No matter where we live or what we believe .
We are all part of a single , inviolable truth .
Call it God , Allah , Yahweh , the Divine Spirit , the Universe , Mother Earth or Natural Law , there is one truth and we all understand it .
Cause no harm , cause no loss , take responsibility for our actions and treat all with compassion and respect .
We are not merely a random cluster of atoms .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ have purpose and every life has inestimable value .
We stand together or divided we fall .

COVID 19 is being used to create a global fascist dictatorship. From New Zealand to the U.S, so-called western democracies have adopted and developed the Chinese model of technocracy to create a single biosecurity State.
This globalist corporate State is to be centrally controlled and administered by a distant global governance cartel of appointed bureaucrats. Tasked only to serve the interests of a tiny, disproportionately wealthy group we can call the parasite class.
Every aspect of your life will be monitored and controlled, as we move towards the ultimate surveillance State. Your ability to work, to socialise, to travel, conduct business, access public services and to purchase essential goods and services will be dictated to you, and restricted, by the State, based upon your biosecurity or immunity status.
This transformation process is well underway. You are no longer a human being, you are a biosecurity risk. As such you may be removed to a military controlled quarantine camp as and when the State sees fit. Detention without trial will be the norm. All protest will be outlawed unless the protest suits the agenda of the parasite class.
Your children will no longer be your own. They will belong to the State. Parental consent for medical procedures will be presumed or, in the case of mandatory procedures, not required. Once the biosecurity State is firmly established, consent will be a distant memory.
We have a diminishing window of opportunity to stop this global fascist dictatorship. Violent protests will not work. Not only are they morally indefensible, they are tactically naive.
Violence is the language of the oppressor. The global State holds total dominion over instigation of the use of force. To crack down, in response to a violent uprising, is the fervent hope of the oppressor. It allows the State to exercise more, not less, authoritarian control.
In reality, to stop it, all we need to do is refuse, en masse, to comply.
We must do this with our eyes open. It won’t be easy and many of us will face harsh punishment from a desperate tyrant. However, if we don’t stand up now, we are condemning future generations to unimaginable levels of slavery and misery.
In order to foist this upon us, the apparatus behind it has invested billions in propaganda. The fascist technocracy, presently being constructed at an alarming pace, requires our cooperation. Without it, the biosecurity dictatorship cannot gain its desired authority.
Our representative democratic systems are not what our forebears gave everything to build. The parasite class have hollowed them out, replacing the organs of State with their own, leaving only the shell as a chimera to maintain our delusions and keep us believing that we have a semblance of control.
It is a fool’s errand to attempt to use their system to win our freedom. It is designed to control us. Appeals to their courts will never deliver justice to us. Temporary, small victories will always be overturned. Nor can we vote harder, expecting yet another of their puppets to save us.
The purpose of the representative democratic apparition is to centralise all global power in the hands of the parasite class. This course is inexorable and, while we persist in our electoral folly, we will not alter it.
We must build something new to replace it. The obvious solution is the decentralisation of all power to the individual. We must construct a voluntary society.
Without us, without our obedience, the parasite class is currently nothing but a group of ineffectual, wannabe plutocrats, sat on piles of paper, created from nothing and worth nothing. If we don’t obey, there are no rulers.
Should we refuse to use their monetary system, their usury will be fruitless; if we decide not to pay their taxes, we cut will off their economic exploitation and if we never vote for their bureaucrats, we won’t consent to their nominated, elected aristocracy.
We are the scientists and the engineers, the doctors and the nurses; we are the builders and the architects, the mechanics and the farmers; we are the soldiers who kill and die for their enrichment, we are the police officers who enforce their unlawful rules; we are the people who build and work in their factories, we are the office workers and bank clerks who administer their system, the shop workers, the programmers, the writers, the artists, the teachers and we are the people who, through our belief in their mythical authority, allow the parasite class to control us.
We are the meek, we are the receivers of all knowledge and all wisdom. We possess all the technology we need and we are the experts. It is our world, leased from our future generations, not theirs. Without us, the parasite class are utterly incapable of controlling anyone or anything.
We must create, not destroy. We must liberate science, technology, art and knowledge itself from their occult control. We must build alternative decentralised systems, enabling humanity to live as a coexistence of free, sovereign beings. We must focus upon self sufficiency, we must support each other, turn our backs on the control systems of the parasitic State and build our own autonomous communities.
We must refuse to comply with any and all attempts to centralise power. We can do this by rejecting, outright, the concept of authority.
No one ever has any right to tell anyone else what to do. But nor does anyone ever have the right to cause any harm or loss to another human being. We can live in harmony because we are capable of respecting each other equally, without reservation. We know this.
Not a single human being on this Earth has the right to order any other to obey their authority. None of us possess this power. Therefore, this power can never be derived from us. We do not have it to give. The State’s claim of authority, gleaned from their electoral anointment ceremony, is a charade. Their authority does not exist in reality, only in our imaginations.
We don’t need anyone to tell us how to live. Nor how to deal with the tiny minority incapable of taking responsibility for their own actions. A voluntary society would be a society without rulers, not a society without rules.
We don’t need their systems of authority to live in relative peace and harmony and we never have. Spontaneous order is all around us. We already live the overwhelming majority of our lives free from State control and without the need for anyone to impose any rulers upon us.
A disease, or a control mechanism?
With a few exceptions, no State compels the farmer to grow crops, no State coerces labourers to pick the harvest or engineers to design and operate packing plants and no State forces anyone to transport the produce to market nor any consumer to buy it.
This system isn’t controlled by any single authority. It is an intricate, often global, network of free individuals, each acting in their own best interests, creating a harmonious social order way beyond the operational control of any State. The State has no part in this social order of immeasurable complexity.
This ordered social construct, bringing food to the family table, is entirely voluntary. Our society is built from millions of such systems and trillions of voluntary actions and exchanges that happen every day. The voluntary society already exists. All we need do is recognise it, and then seize it. The State is, and always has been, entirely unnecessary. It is a hindrance, not a utility.
What benefit does the State and its regulation bring to our food supply chains? It claims to protect it. Protect for whom?
It removes the free market to protect the profits of multinational corporations. It imposes taxes, raising everyone’s costs, to pay for its wars of neocolonialist exploitation. It forces wages down, it cuts the margins for everyone from growers to retailers, pushing some into poverty to be preyed upon by the same corporate State.
Its food standard regulations, supposedly designed to keep us safe, effectively reduce food quality, creates massive waste, reduces nutrition, causes more sickness and lengthens the queues at the pharmacy. Again for the benefit of the parasite class and their pharmaceutical corporations.
In a truly voluntary, free market, what would a supplier gain from providing low quality, expensive produce to consumers? They would quickly go out of business.
Only State regulations can possibly facilitate lowering quality, while raising prices, without anyone in the supply chain, other than the oligarchs at the top, profiting from it. Corporate profit is the bottom line and the State’s sole purpose is to protect it.
Yet, somehow, we remain convinced that society could not possibly order itself spontaneously, without the forced coercion of the State. Despite the fact that, in great measure, it already does. We neither lack the ability nor the knowledge to build a voluntary society. We lack the confidence, because this pernicious system is purpose built to rob us of it.
We are taught, practically from birth, that respecting authority is a virtue. To obey is to be good, disobedience is punished. What could we be if instead we taught our children to think critically, that all of us have equal, inalienable rights, never to cause harm or loss and to take responsibility for themselves because there is no claimed protection from any authority?
Unfortunately, once we enter the education system, the doctrine of authority is vigorously reinforced through perpetual repetition and the systemic application of reward and punishment. We are taught what we are allowed to know. This prepares us to be productive workers and responsible members of the State.
We are then permitted to work until we are no longer productive, with every last ounce of profit milked from us, as we shuffle off to our graves on pharmaceutical life support, before the State swoops in to hoover up the remnants of our lives.
This is not done for our benefit. We are programmed to believe in the farcical notion of a benevolent State. A State which exclusively serves the parasite class and one in which our lives are the real commodity.
COVID 19 is not a high impact infectious disease, it has low mortality rates and is absolutely comparable to influenza. It isn’t even clear that is can be identified as a disease at all. Sadly, it seems the vast majority of us are so adapted to our authoritarian environment that we are incapable of ever questioning anything we are told by our superiors.
COVID 19 is nothing more than a casus belli for the Third World War. As the representatives of the State openly admit, that war is a hybrid war. Just as there is no such thing as a healthy human being, nor is there any distinction between war and peace.
All is war and we are the enemy. The military objective is to grind us into docile and compliant slaves, serving the new normal State.
We must face reality. In the new normal, driven by the “Fourth Industrial Revolution,” our labour is no longer required. We are destined only to consume, and that consumption is to be ruthlessly controlled. As are we.
There is no black and no white, no right-wing nor any leftists, there is no gay and no straight, no Republicans nor Democrats, no Conservatives nor Labour supporters. These are just some of the divisions forced upon us by the parasite class, and its compliant lapdog the mainstream media, to keep us divided and to stop us realising the truth.
We are in this together. All of us. No matter where we live or what we believe. We are all part of a single, inviolable truth.
Call it God, Allah, Yahweh, the Divine Spirit, the Universe, Mother Earth or Natural Law, there is one truth and we all understand it. Cause no harm, cause no loss, take responsibility for our actions and treat all with compassion and respect.
We are not merely a random cluster of atoms. We are sovereign spiritual beings. We have purpose and every life has inestimable value. We stand together or divided we fall.
You have a choice. Choose wisely.
Resist!

thelibertybeacon--2020-09-24--Mentally ill man spotted in Downing Street

A tousle-haired , mentally ill man believed to be suffering from the rare psychiatric illness PMD ( Prime Muppet Disorder ) was today spotted cavorting in and around Downing Street and people such as voters were advised to approach him with extreme caution .
The disorder , caused by a chemical imbalance in the common sense centres of the brain , is known to afflict the charismatically challenged with disabling delusions .
In severe cases , the sufferer becomes so disconnected from reality he believes himself to be a Prime Minister fighting an illusory pandemic and suffers uncontrollable compulsions such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , lock everybody up ( or down ) and vandalise the economy .
Known as “ Boris ” and described by one psychiatric expert as “ a complete loony ” , the man is known to suffer from voices in his head that tell him he is in a “ Virus Apocalypse ” video game and instruct him to score points by bankrupting his opponents ( known as “ Citizens ” ) or reducing the Gross Domestic Product to zero .
His is also known to be convinced he has an invisible friend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to save the country from certain death by setting up a dictatorship .
He is often seen in the company of another mental patient who experts are fairly sure is , sadly , not illusory .
Known as Matt , he believes himself to be an evil supervillain known as The Health Secretary , whose Power is the ability to lay waste to entire nations simply by lying through his teeth without a shred of remorse .

Sorry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now expanding at a near exponential rate , and for this we are grateful and excited !
But we must also be practical .
For 7 years we have not asked for any donations , and have built this project with our own funds as we grew .

The disorder, caused by a chemical imbalance in the common sense centres of the brain, is known to afflict the charismatically challenged with disabling delusions. In severe cases, the sufferer becomes so disconnected from reality he believes himself to be a Prime Minister fighting an illusory pandemic and suffers uncontrollable compulsions such as the urge to cull the elderly, lock everybody up (or down) and vandalise the economy.
Known as “Boris” and described by one psychiatric expert as “a complete loony”, the man is known to suffer from voices in his head that tell him he is in a “Virus Apocalypse” video game and instruct him to score points by bankrupting his opponents (known as “Citizens”) or reducing the Gross Domestic Product to zero.
His is also known to be convinced he has an invisible friend known as Mr Scientist who advises him to save the country from certain death by setting up a dictatorship.
He is often seen in the company of another mental patient who experts are fairly sure is, sadly, not illusory. Known as Matt, he believes himself to be an evil supervillain known as The Health Secretary, whose Power is the ability to lay waste to entire nations simply by lying through his teeth without a shred of remorse.
