Swedish COVID Deflection

 


       The recent series of anti-Swedish articles in the right-wing British media (Ref. 1) on that country’s government actions on COVID-19 has been noteworthy. The timing was clearly planned to match the Scottish National Party conference of the 28th to 30th November. A main thread of these arguments has been about “U-turns” in several areas, particularly regarding school attendance and exclusion for example. The UK Government has "U-turned" and come in for some criticism on education matters recently. The Express and Star is good example of a local news outlet in the English Midlands which at least can still probably be trusted, provides an example of this (Ref. 2).
       A distinct trend has been observed in recent years within one distinctive political party in England, demonstrating inconsistency, hypocrisy, lying, contradictory advice and increasingly scant provision of evidence. This is an inherent and necessary facet of a group whose brighter members and those behind-scenes know that if the plain truth were accepted, the game is over. Perversely and ironically this situation is due to the rapidly aging demographic profile of the English Conservative Party, whose increasingly nasty “philosophies” and developing selfishness-oriented principles have turned almost wholly on race demographics.plus denigration of the EU in general and specific European nations in particular Special tactics have therefore been required, partially adopted and tailored to British conditions. These have been fairly similar to those observed from US Republicans in recent times and are based upon well-worn "4-D" tactics (Ref. 3) of Dismiss, Distort, Distract and Dismay.
       An article was published on 30th November 2020 on “Conservative Home” a web-based propaganda source similar to many associated sites associated with the English political far right (Ref. 4). This takes a firm lead from former Deputy Chairman of Conservative Party between 2005 and 2010. Mr. Michael Ashcroft, patriotically based in Belize, is a powerful supporter of the Conservative Home organ, which notably put out an intense anti-Scottish message on COVID-19 a couple of days before focusing on Sweden on the same subject, on the very day the Scottish National Party conference finished. A similar thing was organised a few years ago at around the time of the Catalunya pre-independence vote. That influencing and support was eventually traced back to certain groups of people, formerly regarded as enemies of Spain and Britain. Expect more of this in the run up to a possible Scottish independence vote (Ref. 5).

  There is a large segment of British society, both home and abroad, who have not been able to gain from the terrible experiences of parents and grandparents. Through no fault of their own other than choices about how and what to learn, they never heard from an early age about any invasion of their country, never read about the desecration of their family homes and so were able to learn from that. It is no accident that Japan and Germany are two very stable successful countries now whereas Britain and America are going through various political and social turmoils and attempts at shifts to authoritarianism. In parts of mainly non-Celtic Britain, mostly within certain older parts of the moderately affluent Middle Classes, a sub-group of that deeply privileged sector received, then stoked a probably detrimental surfeit of jingoistic and ersatz "Patriotism" through much of a lifetime. It seems at times to be the very breathed air itself for those Johnnies. The results may

    Quantitatively Eased Manipulated Digital Cashflows [QEMDC] trickling upwards in a gush. A neatly manufactured cash-teat sucked at by old nasties Drexel Burnham Lambert [DBL], Blackstone, Stephen Schwarzman, Apollo, Leon Black, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts [KKR], cold dead philanthropist and jet-setter Jeff Epstein and a few other Movers and Killers all mixed into that particular soup. Predatory vulture disaster capitalism at it's very best. Potentially coming to your nearest health insurers, asset strippers and property inflaters in US, AUS and UK soon, so make sure you are well prepared [$$$$] folks. More opportunities for supporters to screech "Conspiracy Hypothesis" at every opportunity when finance related issues nudge against the fundamental orientation of their prevailing grain from a position of great knowledge. Apollo, run until recently by the nasty Leon Black before the stink of his Epstein ties became overpowering and he resigned,

New Names Required for GOP and Tories

    Lest anyone be unsure as to the still remaining intentions of many the men remaining within what is still called the Republican Party in America, as well as their handmaidens in what is still called the Conservative Party in England. They were tolerated and often silently agreed with by many in those groups/parties over the years and decades.   Ten years ago they started to steadily accelerate the money, hoping the time was right. Nazism in Deutschland was essentially a gangster regime, deeply envious and resentful towards The British Empire, wanting it's share of the spoils. This is precisely what happened in that decade we all learned about and thought could not occur again. Do not believe it. No-one was prepared to stop it then and many now cry "Wolf" now. No-one used the phrase "Conspiracy Theories" in 1934. It is very simple. One is either with it or against it. There is no flexible "middle ground". That's called "accomm
