  1. Carl Heneghan has been one of the very few voices of dissent from the doom narrative from the outset of this dreadful episode. Without sway, his thorough-going application of tried and tested medical science protocols has shone a light of investigation on the policies that have sprung from advice garnered from one source only: the tightly constrained group known as SAGE. This light has shown consistently that the recommendations of SAGE run counter to the procedures that medical science has, over the course of decades of experience, come to recognise as being the way to deal with viral outbreaks. At this stage, and with such clear evidence of the repeated ineffectiveness of their suggested policies, we need urgently to demand a stop to this process by which the life of the country is being systematically restrained. When that is done we then need to have an immediate investigation to discover and make widely known, who made the decision to select the members of SAGE and on what basis they thought that the interests of the country, in tackling a viral outbreak, would be best served not first and foremost by the initial inclusion of a virologist or an epidemiologist (neither included for some time), but by a whole team of behavioural psychologists?

  2. 'The left' are socialists - any measure that will damage a capitalist economy will be grasped eagerly. 'The left' occupy many positions of power outside of what we still call the Labour Party.
