Dominic Cummings, Hedge Funds, UK Government Gaming the Virus, Grooming a Population to Accept Mass Death.


1. The UK Hedge Fund Government is 'gaming' Brexit and The Virus, at the same time, for the same reasons. They have made bets and investment planning based on the collapse and remaking of the UK Economy.
The slow the spread policy is designed to provide a leverage to re-rig the UK economy, with the Virus and people's behaviour as the scapegoats. That is the function of deliberately vague instructions, confusing messaging and the online micro targeting of trigger material funded and organised by Hedge Funded and Alt-Right entities similar to Cambridge Analytica and Aggregate IQ et al
The Hedge Fund Johnson Government deliberately and consciously allowed the importation of the corona virus from Italy and Spain for 6 weeks, in February and March, and beyond.
The bulk of UK infection did not originate in China. It came from Europe. The Johnson Government made deliberate choices to not prevent spread of the infection and the disease, when they most certainly knew it was being imported and they had the tools and the power to prevent that from happening. The chose not to act.
They had access to the same information as New Zealand did, as Vietnam did, at the same time. The UK Government had access to more material and economic resources with which to act. The two different approaches of both Governments are now clearly delineated in terms of fatalities and economic impacts.

If the UK Hedge Fund Government had acted in February they could have stopped the spread of the virus and limited deaths to a much, much smaller number. The UK would be in a similar position to New Zealand.
Even if they had acted one week earlier than March 23rd, they could have prevent half as many deaths as have occurred. They made that choice as part of gaming the situation for the economic gain of their Hedge Fund sponsors.
2. The Virus is real, and it is a danger to vulnerable people. There are a lot of vulnerable people in the UK, where I live. Most fit people are not really aware of how many vulnerable people there are.
In the UK 441,00 elders live in care homes, many more live with their children, at home, or in their own homes. 11 million people live with chronic disease states, and a large proportion suffer with diabetes, obesity, hypertension, heart disease, cancer, dementia and many other illnesses that are a big risk factor for COVID19.
COVID19 represents an enhanced fatality risk factor for BAME people, within the Health system and across the general population. Poverty is also an enhanced risk factor for fatalities.
3. Austerity in the UK has led directly to 150,000 excess deaths of vulnerable people between 2010 and 2020 and very few fit healthy people were, and/or are aware or concerned enough to do anything meaningful to protect the vulnerable and the disabled. Even as the UN reported on Disabled people's rights being breached, the vast majority of British citizens remain unaware of this. The lack of energy from the fit healthy population in terms of confronting what their government is doing to vulnerable, unwell people is unsettling.
4. Quite a few fit and healthy people are affected by the deliberate and confusing inconsistencies in the Government Corona Virus Policy, and they are, for various reasons, treating the whole matter as if it is all a scam, including the danger of the virus itself. Misleading information, lies and other behavioural inconsistencies lend themselves to this perception - the UK Hedge Fund Government is well aware of this, as is Dominic Cummings. I believe they are exploiting this, just as they exploited and exacerbated skewed biases, prejudices and perceptions during Brexit. And another factor is that the provision of support to people to endure shut down has been inadequate, and this has exacerbated the pre-existing issues such as poverty, health care issue, cancer care, social care, vulnerable children's care and so forth. Rather than provide extra support, the government has allowed those issues to fester at home alone, often with less support than previously.
Then, when they need to push for ease of lock down, to push people back into work and to produce more spread of infection, they rolled out the exacerbated issues as emotional blackmail.
5. By holding that the danger of the virus itself is a scam, by taking the breach of regulations by Cummings and others as licence to do likewise, those fit and healthy people are feeding into the policy objective of the Hedge Fund UK Government and their cronies in the Corporate world, even as they believe they are opposing the UK Government policy.- in their frustration they of course support easing of restrictions without provision of adequate protections and in that they are undermining protection of vulnerable people, they are effectively supporting continued spreading of the virus, they appear to be unaware that stopping the virus is a viable policy and they represent a serious split within the population that the UK Hedge Fund Government is exploiting, in that they are not at all concerned with protecting the most vulnerable people in our community.
6. Many of these people are unaware that their view is being carefully attenuated, via online micro-targeting that has assessed their on line activity and is delivering content designed to groom them into believing their beliefs are reality. They do not understand that they are being exploited to further the UK Government policy.
7 Many of these people feel absolutely superior to others who they are being led believe are fearful, cowardly and complaint via online rhetoric and caricature across social media and in presidential tweets, and statements by Johnson such as suggesting those concerned with health and safety "should show more guts!". This is nothing less than bullying.
8 The Government's inadequate preparations made shut down deliberately confusing and later on used the problems those inadequacies created for various groups that were already subject to great stress, to generate news worthy pressure to call for an easing of the shut down (rather than provide resources to make shut down easier for everyone) and then used emotional blackmail in the media against the people who were concerned the science was still saying it is not safe, by saying "if you want to retain shut down it is going to hurt these groups, and that will be your fault." I am repeating myself here, I know, because this point is critical.
9 This is a seriously abusive situation, and very, very sad indeed.! Good, decent people are being enrolled into enabling the abuse, and are being doubly victimised.
11 A recent example is where one WHO official referred to pre-print studies that suggested asymptomatic transmission of the virus was rare. The WHO have retracted that statement, clarifying that it was a few studies that have not been fully checked.. However the people who believe the virus itself to be a scam, or not a danger,will not see that retraction in their feeds. They will continue to believe that asymptomatic transmission is rare, that the bulk of transmission is from pre-symptomatic cases, that become symptomatic, because that is more comfortable, psychologically speaking, it means they do not have to face the 'humiliation' of realising they have been groomed.
12 The same applies to people taken in by Brexit, by Trump and by other notable scams, people who are trapped, psychologically speaking by their internalisation of the scams as part of their identities, they are holding to the lie.
13 This is sad and quite frightening because it represents serious harms to come for many, many lovely people who are genuinely vulnerable, and it represents a split across the grass roots what will allow the Hedge Fund Government to shred our economy and cause real damage to society and of course to people, lovely decent ordinary folk and their families.
14. Christopher Wylies book Mindf*ck is a critically important read on how populations are influenced via co-ordinated online, press and broadcast media campaigns. “In one experiment, CA would show people on online panels pictures of simple bar graphs about uncontroversial things (e.g., the usage rates of mobile phones or sales of a car type) and the majority would be able to read the graph correctly. However, unbeknownst to the respondents, the data behind these graphs had actually been derived from politically controversial topics, such as income inequality, climate change, or deaths from gun violence. 

When the labels of the same graphs were later switched to their actual controversial topic, respondents who were made angry by identity threats were more likely to misread the relabeled graphs that they had previously understood. 

What CA observed was that when respondents were angry, their need for complete and rational explanations was also significantly reduced. In particular, anger put people in a frame of mind in which they were more indiscriminately punitive, particularly to out-groups. 

They would also underestimate the risk of negative outcomes. This led CA to discover that even if a hypothetical trade war with China or Mexico meant the loss of American jobs and profits, people primed with anger would tolerate that domestic economic damage if it meant they could use a trade war to punish immigrant groups and urban liberals.”

Be Alert!. Bullies Exploit Emerging Vulnerabilities.



"The grooming (gaslighting) of human vulnerability is one of most vile things any human being can do to another."



BE ALERT!

It will take 2 to 6 weeks for the first clear signs of a surge in infections to become apparent..


The UK Government is gambling with your lives.

Only if you allow them to.

Stay home, tell your boss to think about the legal action you will be forced to take if he or she demands you return, or offers to fire you if you do not.

Do not send your children to school, do not demand more teachers place themselves at risk, furlough is not an easy money free ride, it is a protective measure.

Do not be bullied.

There is a local epidemic, here in the UK. 


We are called upon to be alert. Then let us be alert. Let us pay close attention to the implications, the masked threats, the veiled insinuations.

The virus is real. The infection is not a hoax. 
Viruses are not bullies. Hoaxers are bullies. Some bullies will be attempting to exploit the situations created by this  viral infection and the disease it causes. Bullying can be described as using any form of power disparity to manipulate or coerce others to meet the needs of the entity with the greater power.

David Icke is a bully. Alex Jones is a bully. Both are exploiting people's fears and insecurities, their rage and hatreds and emotional reactions to sell books, to sell product, to market a brand, to build a cult following. That is a form of bullying, it is psychological bullying. Donald Trump is a bully.  Trumplestiltskin - the public persona is that of The Bully's Bully. The Bully for all Seasons. I will stamp my feet if I do not get my own way!

They are not alone in this. Brexit was a similar dynamic, with Boris Johnson at the very core of that behavioural dynamic, which I have previously described as political grooming. Nigel Farage stating that in his opinion street violence would be understandable if people did not get their own way. Straight bananas.

Hoax? What hoax? 


SARSCOV2 is a genuine, naturally evolved 
virus (if you take in the impact of harvesting wild animals for meat, and stocking them, live, in a meat market where stress and stock conditions can mean a virus can be passed from one creature to another in ways that would not normally occur, but can, and did, and is then transferred to a human by contact, where it finds access to cells and replicates and is then transmitted to another human being).


COVID19 is the disease caused when the virus enters a human host and uses the hosts cells to replicate, so that it can then be coughed or breathed out in tiny droplets of moist breath, to infect a new human host.

The process of using the hosts cells to make millions of copies of itself destroys those cells, and that is what causes the various disease breakdowns that can cause fatality.  Some people's immune systems cannot cope with that,  often because they are already suffering a chronic disease. Some people's immune system fails, even though they appear to be healthy. It's a risk for everyone, albeit greater for those who are already ill. We have no vaccine, and none on any reasonable time horizon.

If your lung cells are destroyed, you cannot breathe in oxygen, or breathe out carbon dioxide, and that causes lots of problems for most of your bodies organs. There's more to it than that. That is not the point of this short piece. Infectious diseases can cause terrible damage especially when we have no natural immunity and no vaccine and not curative treatment.

There is a pandemic (which is concurrent epidemics happening at the same time in different countries). This is now a global issue. 7 billion and more are involved in this. We are all in this together. It is in the air we breathe. Breathe in, breath out, spread it all about.


There is no vaccine. There is no vaccine in sight. I repeat myself. The promise of a vaccine is an empty promise. And in the next paragraph I will outline one reason why some people are floating it as a strategy with imminent potential right now. It is a delaying tactic. I think Bill Gates naivety is being exploited. I don't think he is evil. Nonetheless, there are those whose intentions are evil; predatory intent among humans is evil. We all know about predatory lending practices. Some people are clearly attempting to exploit the situation of this pandemic.

A slow spread policy avoids taking the kinds of action what would demand a Government supports a population through the process of stopping the spread, suppressing the virus and eradicating it from any given population.

For some ideologues funding the incomes of workers, (as opposed to  bailing out hedge funds and investment bankers), is considered an evil greater than the virus's impact on vulnerable people. The people might become addicted to the free money. I have written on this blog quite recently about the historical resonance of British political masters and their fear, their disdain, their hatred for helping the poor, the vulnerable.  The UN has chastised the UK Government for it's inhumane mistreatment of disabled people seeking states support to live in dignity.

Priti Patel, Sir Iain Duncan Smith, Sir Charles Trevelyan are quoted in my previous piece on the historical behaviour pattern I have observed resonating through this epidemic.


Some predatory Governments, Hedge Funds and others such as Rees-Mogg will attempt to exploit the local and global epidemics - buy low, sell high! How can we make a 'killing'?  Can we use this to acquire more power? What economic gains can we make from this crisis?

The UN calls for a global cease fire, the USA denies the motion because the WHO exists, because China exists and because both have done, and are doing, immense work to stop the spread, suppress the virus, eradicate it from populations and this shows up the US Federal Governments bad policy. 

The UK is in lock step with this move by the USA,  Both regularly abuse the Veto rights granted by their presence on the UN Security Council. Yes, the council of those who hold the biggest weapons of mass destruction systems, their versions of political protection equipment. Equipment that is a threat, rather than a protection. Bullies. History. I digress.

Let's return to the lead-up to the present moment, in the UK, by way of the speech Boris Johnson delivered even as the first cases of COVID19 were confirmed in the UK, and health officials were assuring us that the UK was among the best prepared in the world.


This is the official transcript from Boris Johnson's speech on February 3rd.


https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/pm-speech-in-greenwich-3-february-2020

"And in that context, we are starting to hear some bizarre autarkic rhetoric, when barriers are going up, and when there is a risk that new diseases such as coronavirus will trigger a panic and a desire for market segregation that go beyond what is medically rational to the point of doing real and unnecessary economic damage, then at that moment humanity needs some government somewhere that is willing at least to make the case powerfully for freedom of exchange, some country ready to take off its Clark Kent spectacles and leap into the phone booth and emerge with its cloak flowing as the supercharged champion, of the right of the populations of the earth to buy and sell freely among each other.

And here in Greenwich in the first week of February 2020, I can tell you in all humility that the UK is ready for that role.


We are ready for the great multi-dimensional game of chess in which we engage in more than one negotiation at once and we are limbering up to use nerves and muscles and instincts that this country has not had to use for half a century."


That clears everything up then. There we have it. Those who seek to protect their populations are panicking, cowardly, spineless and weak, The UK Government is strong, caped up and ready to make vast profits in this situation.

Treating the people as children.

Boris Johnson's May Bank Holiday speech was deliberately vague, and because the instructions are vague he is hanging workers out to dry.

Classic passive aggressive management tactics are to issue deliberately vague instruction sets that contain conflicts; in response, when workers exercise too much caution, they are blamed for any failures to meet objectives, and when they are not cautious enough, they are held responsible for any adverse outcomes.

The response of various experts in the fields of medicine, virology, epidemiology and public health largely critical of the lack of clarity and the lack of a science based rationale.

His speech calls for factories and other workplace settings to
restart working in the midst of a lock down, at a time when statistics indicate a plateau, rather than a downturn.

Johnson makes a call to maintain social distancing even though we know that it is practically impossible in many work and travel situations to maintain that - the Ro number is still rather vaguely estimated, and in all likelihood it is still too high. We know using public transport is a super spreader. We know that thousands of new cases are confirmed at hospitals every day, and that hundreds are still dying in hospitals, at home and in care homes and that a third of UK 15,570 care homes are hosting outbreaks of infection. His instructions and directions amount to deliberate confusion.


"The main sources for infection are home, workplace, public transport, social gatherings, and restaurants. This accounts for 90% of all transmission events. In contrast, outbreaks spread from shopping appear to be responsible for a small percentage of traced infections" source

Who will take up the workers part when they are ordered back to work, and
out of concern for others and common sense they refuse? Will they then be fired? 
What of their rights under Section 44?  What legal aid access will the have? Is this how furlough is to be reduced? The addicts pushed out to face cold turkey. They can exercise all day long, to work through it?

Bullies give vague directions in order to set the victimised up for future failure and censure. This is a known behavioural and tactical dynamic associated with passive aggressive management.

News Media carefully float in comments about how furloughed workers are taking a freebie, sitting back and enjoying the free cash, Callers into talk shows repeat these claims, and acclaim their own desire to get back to work! Underneath is the unspoken allegation of mass malingering, disincentivised work shy slackers threatening the UK Economy.

Treating the people as adults.


Other Governments and organisations are responding in ways that attempt, as best they can, to take care of the people. They are attempting to stop the spread, to suppress the virus until it is eradicated from the population to whom they owe fealty and of for whom they hold a duty of care. They are supporting their people in order to have a people, to be an economy.

 'Unless we fix the biology, there will be no economy.' Dr. Erin Bromage. Understanding the risks matters. Opinion and belief may well be lethal.

 New Zealand is one example of a State choosing to take an evidenced position in order to protect the most vulnerable people within their population, which as it happens will also be the most protective of their economy.

Be like Jacinda, Stop the Spread, Spread the Love.

I wrote a song about Jacinda  vs Boris and Donald. No fridges or golf games for her. Just the daily work of suppressing transmission, eradicating the virus. Day by day.


This chart in the link below outlines the impacts of the different policy approaches in different countries, in terms of infections or progress of their local epidemic, as a result of their policy approaches. Take a look. It's real.

https://www.endcoronavirus.org/countries

It really is that clear.


Bullies Exploit Emerging Vulnerabilities

Another way to frame this is to say that bullies will always attempt to exploit any emerging vulnerability in any family, village, church, organisation, institution or population/state where they hold degrees of power over others. 


I understand that this is a behavioural pattern, one the bully does not have to think about engaging, that it is automatic.  See opportunity, grasp it!


The bully will be behaving in an opportunistic dynamic, and will be co-opting any push back by the populations they are afflicting, so there is this push and pull dynamic that is very unsettling - this is then masked by a narrative that gives the illusion of incompetence, and that serves the purpose of throwing the afflicted off the scent, so that the opportunity to exploit the situation remains in the control of the bully.

There is also a benefit to the bully in encouraging a raft of conTheories and even in promoting them - The Chinese Virus! - some people will reject such theories as too outlandish, too crazy to be real or meaningful, and in throwing out the baby with the bathwater, they lose touch with the bullying element. Incompetence is much more comforting an illusion, and it gives the bully more more to act.

A bully can be a person, a group of people, an institution or a Government twisting arms.

Stay alert to the plays of professional bullies.

Stay Alert!

Stay home and study the matter.

Write to your local MP.  Write to the media you read.

Protect your children and their teachers.

Make a noise, stay at home, disturb the bullies.

Stop the spread, spread the love.

Kindest regards
