The latest resource to add to my list of pandemic writings is my new book 'My Road to Freedom: Notes from a Lockdown Delivery Driver'.
It's a book in two parts: an exposé of the role of the fake lockdown sceptic media, and a diary of the two-year debacle.

Just had a scene in the cafe. A lady interrupted my conversation and shouted "If you're unvaccinated, you shouldn't leave the house!" I said: "I'm a delivery driver. I've been bringing you food while you were hiding in your house. How about that?" She shut up then skulked off.

I’m finding myself listening to a lot of 80s music at the moment. I don’t think we realised how good we had it in those days in Britain. Our values and our culture and our humour and our freedom and our sense of community and our trust seems to have evaporated into thin air.

People who don’t want the vaccine aren’t “refusing” it. You don’t say a person is “refusing” to take anti-depressants. Or “refusing” to get married. You can decline without refusing. You decide what’s best for you. Refuse is a manipulative term, loaded with unfair moral pressure.

They mend your boiler, fix your car, wire your house, build your infrastructure, take care of your children, nurse your sick, and perform countless other tasks that require real intelligence not pompous pseudo-intelligence like yours, and you think they can't make good decisions?
This is awkward, but needs to be said.
The lower your academic achievement, the more likely you were to support Brexit. Add this to the rejection of the advice from very many leaders in various fields, then you can only begin to realise what a perilous state we are in.

At my delivery job. I feel sick after my day of looking into the global harms of the lockdowns. What an utter monstrosity it’s all been. And all the while, middle class muppets pranced about in their pyjamas on full pay, quaffing wine, baking bread, and thinking they were heroes.

Longstanding followers of mine will remember me being thrown out of a pub during lockdown because I refused to wear a mask while walking to my table. Ludicrous. The pub was called the Colpitts - one of Durham’s loveliest old pubs. It’s shut now. You reap what you sow.

Take a moment to consider:
The reason the NHS was quiet enough for its staff to be dancing was not that the lockdown had stopped a mild virus, but because the NHS had stopped treating other conditions.
And now people are dying.
And the NHS staff demanded pay rises.

A research exercise:
The entire population was locked up for a year. Kids were masked and tormented. Lives were wrecked, and people were left to die alone. Over a mild virus.
This is NOT acceptable to me. I want a full legal process and the ringleaders jailed.

Why did Boris cave in and abandon herd immunity in March 2020? No journalists are asking. On this basis, I conclude there are no journalists. A real journalist would be ALL OVER the question of what made the government cave in. Turns out it was the unions, if you bother to look.

Let's clarify: If you're vaccinated but you still think you need protecting from someone who is unvaccinated, you don't really believe the vaccine protects you, do you? And if you don't believe the vaccine protects you, why do you think there's any point in anyone else taking it?

Good to see a growing backlash against the teaching unions. As I've said for a long time, when the spotlight is turned on the various unions that drove this whole debacle, we can start to unravel it all. ALL of it. None of it was ever necessary. No other conclusion is acceptable.
