Yesterday.

China’s Canada’s CTV:

CTV anchor: “You’ve just compared people who have may have donated to this to the same people who are funding maybe a terrorist. I just want to be clear here. This is really important. A lot of folks are just like ‘look, I just don’t like your vaccine mandates. And I donated to this, now it’s illegal, should I be worried that the bank can freeze my account?’ What’s your answer?”

David Lametti (Canada’s Justice Minister): “Well, I think if you are a member of a pro-Trump movement who’s donating hundreds of thousands of dollars and millions of dollars to this kind of thing, they oughta be worried.”

Cold.

Meanwhile…

That’ll learn them.

Meanwhile…

Good times.

Public Health Scotland say covid data is being misused deliberately by anti-vaccination campaigners

This afternoon.

Via Glasgow Times:

Public Health Scotland will stop publishing data on covid deaths and hospitalisations by vaccination status – over concerns it is misrepresented by anti-vaxx campaigners.

The public health watchdog announced the change in policy in its most recent covid statistical report, saying the frequency and content of the data would be reviewed.

Instead, officials will focus on publishing more robust and complex vaccine effectiveness data.

PHS officials said significant concerns about the data being misused deliberately by anti-vaccination campaigners is behind the move.

Thumper – The Loser

Send in the clown.

Thumper (top) style themselves as “a noise-pop sextet from Dublin, delivering bubble-gum psych through a wall of sonic death.”

Couldn’t have put it better myself. The Loser is from their forthcoming album Delusions Of Grandeur, due March 18.

The video is directed and edited by Luke Byrne.

Nick says: Loser wins.
