It is now possible to see the Covid 2022 battlefield lines.
It all comes down to how we live our lives for the rest of our lives.
The side of panic and inflexibility: Patrick Vallance and Christopher Whitty, Doomsday Duo, Patrick Vallance, Patrick Vallance, Patrick Vallance, Patrick Ferguson, all lost souls at BBC News, Sajid Javid and Cabinet irrationals Michael Gove, Robert Peston and Keir Starmer Leader of No Opposition, Sadiq Khan failed London Mayor, and communists and the anticapitalists everywhere.
To learn-to-live once and for all with the virus: 100 Tory backbennch rebels and independent thinking scientists. Freedom fighters from every corner of the globe, not just a few media people who are brave enough to ask pertinent questions. Lord Frost was the first to leave a top Cabinet position because of Plan BS.
If Boris Johnson backs the Omicron-hysterics over the next 48 hours – or at any time over the next few weeks – there will be grave consequences for his prime ministership.
I’ve been saying it for over a year, but the only way for the PM to save his job and allow us all to get on with our pre-2020 lives – given 95 per cent of adults are positively bursting with Covid antibodies – is by taking back control from the Covid brothers grim Whitty and Vallance…before it’s too late.
Over-the-top laws are being used to strangle us and threaten the survival of society as it was once known.
The side that learns to live with this virus one-for-all: 100 Tory rebels, independent-thinking scientists, freedom fighters all over the world, not to mention a small number of journalists who were brave enough ask pertinent questions. Lord Frost is pictured here with Boris Johnson. He was the first soldier to quit a high-ranking Cabinet post due to Plan BS.
Take the ten-day isolation rule that is forcing hundreds of thousands of us to stay locked up, even once we’ve tested negative for Covid.
In just one week, the number of NHS employees absent has doubled.
The crisis in schools is expected to last until Easter. Retired teachers are encouraged to get involved with the supply force. Many schools are closing.
A ten-day period of isolation forced the closures of supermarkets and restaurants as well as shops, pubs, clubs, gyms, cinemas, theatres, and other businesses.
The simple solution is to halve it to a five-day isolation period immediately – or at least seven – and allow those who test negative to go back to their lives at once.
This must be done quickly to prevent serious problems.
But that’s just the beginning of what must be a fundamental re-evaluation of how we learn to live with Covid.
We can’t even start to do that until the rules are adjusted to acknowledge it is no longer killing many people, but our disproportionate response to the virus is killing off thousands of businesses and even more jobs.
People aren’t terrified of dying anymore, but they are terrified of being locked up and having their lives disrupted.
Covid is a way of life that we need to know.

It will be a paradigm shift as this requires that there is no more free asymptotic testing or lateral flows.
Covid needs to be treated for what it is, just another – not very dangerous – cold and flu.
And that’s why I’ve so convinced dramatic changes in personnel on SAGE, starting with Whitty and Vallance, are needed.
They don’t want Christmas to be over. Instead, the current irresponsible advisers would like to permanently damage capitalism with restrictions.
The most effective way for Boris to ensure his Cabinet and supporters that he has listened, and that the UK will not be seen as some sort of ‘plague island’ controlled by Covid, would be to sack Whitty and Vallance, and fundamentally remodel SAGE as soon as humanly possible.
Don’t believe the paranoid who walk among us and warn: It just HAS to be like this.
There are plenty of places, from Florida to Sweden, that have proven throughout this pandemic a more liberal approach that doesn’t cripple lives and livelihoods results in a better mortality rate.

And there are several well-respected scientists – notably Oxford University professors Sunetra Gupta and Carl Heneghan – who have propagated a different approach here in the UK.
These individuals should immediately be included in official SAGE conversations
Whitty Vallance, Ferguson and Ferguson appear to have a lot of power but are also totally unaccountable.
We were advised to keep quiet for the NHS for three weeks. Further lockdowns would be temporary to allow time for vaccine development.
We’ve played our part while officialdom has broken promise after promise.
And I don’t know about you but I’m done.
I am exhausted by the Covid madness. I was shocked to discover how many of my coworkers have fallen prey to the new restrictions.
I’m sick and tired of not being able to look forward to anything; planning has become a ticket to disappointment when the almost inevitable threat of some maddening and unnecessary restriction gets in the way.
We were all prepared for life being interrupted in 2020.
Yes, there was a global pandemic. However, the virus had a very low infection rate and death rate.
But it’s two years now since I saw my beloved father, mother and sister who live in New Zealand, with no certainty about when or how I will be able to be with them again.
It is unimaginable.

I’m sure most of you share similar stories, and some are worse than mine.
It was unimaginable pain to not be able to tell our dying loved ones goodbye, especially when we knew that those responsible for such cruel restrictions were hosting party after party in Number 10 Downing Street’s gardens and private quarters.
Anguish at having to cancel a ceremony, wedding, dream holiday, school ball or graduation.
For a virus where most experience very few symptoms but we can find out immediately whether we’re carrying it or not with a simple test.
A fundamental re-balancing is now required – and that onus must be on us.
My final column for 2021 is my appeal to you: Have a Merry Christmas, regardless what scaremongers or doom traders tell you.
Be sensible, sure. Just like every sound person would, take into account the vulnerabilities.
You can take back control of your own life without worrying and you will be able to feel the freedom that old normal brings.
To protect the mental health of everyone, live normally
Save your company from financial ruin by living normally
Live normally because we are wise enough to follow the science ourselves and isolate if and when we’re carrying Covid.
Live normally right now because, if we continue down this dystopian path, our so-called leaders will maintain their powers and we’ll forget what normal ever was.
There’s a lot at stake this Christmas, but a very simple solution.
Surround yourself with the ones you love, then eat, drink and, yes, hug till your heart’s content – and remember why freedom from the tyranny of government micromanagement is so important.
