Letters
Seeing truth in print made me so happy I write in order to offer my wholehearted support for Dr Colin Clark, and wish to thank you for printing the letter. What a refreshing change to hear such intelligence, humanity and common sense when this has been so disturbingly missing from both the government and mainstream media for so long. The facts, as portrayed by Downing Street and the BBC especially, haven’t been making any scientific or medical sense and it made me quite emotional to see straight facts actually being allowed in print. With regards to his comment about NHS staff being threatened into staying silent, there is an organisation set up to (among other things) legally support NHS whistleblowers; Covid 19 Assembly (covid19assembly.org). They have recently successfully supported Dr Sam White, after he was suspended by the General Medical Council, for speaking out about informed consent and safe, effective alternative treatments. The covid virus is now simply being used as an excuse to dismantle all that’s good about our society, and with it our mental health, education, economy and basic human rights are all being systematically damaged. Thank you again. R Thurgood n Nearly all those dying from covid at this time are people who for some unfounded and irrational reason choose not to be vaccinated. Brainwashing children to believe in irrational and supernatural things from a very young age can lead to unfortunate consequences later in life. This is one of the many reasons I am against the religious indoctrination of young and defenceless children. Sadly in this country there are

many who still believe promoting this ignorant drivel acceptable. David Woolacott n Letter to Chris Loder (Yes, he did vote against ‘covid passports’ – see P5) Dear Chris, I am one of your constituents. Whenever I have cast a vote in an election in West Dorset, I have voted for the candidate of the Conservative Party (apart from your immediate predecessor). My reason being that, to date, the Tory candidate (along with the Party at large) has seemingly espoused moral virtue; free markets; sound money; human liberty and personal dignity. These are all of great importance to me, as I believe they are to Almighty God. My confidence that this Government continues to be unequivocally committed to these values has been eroding steadily over recent months and is now on the point of breaking. I thought I should let you know that unless you vote against the
Government’s latest proposed covid measure (‘Plan-B; proof of vaccination etc.), I will not be supporting you at the next election and will sever my allegiance to the Conservative Party and actively campaign against you on behalf of the Reform Party. Sadly, given the Labour Party will be supporting the Government’s statist and liberty-eroding plans, there is little chance of them being defeated. But it is how YOU personally vote that I will be keenly watching. Thank you for all your efforts and positive work to date on behalf of your constituents – they are impressive and I am grateful to you for representing my interests in Parliament. But this matter is of such fundamental moral importance that no amount of ‘good works’ can justify voting for such a blatant erosion of liberty and human dignity. Malcolm Matson n I know that the Prime Minister sets the bar high when
he quotes the Simpsons and refers to Peppa Pig in his keynote speeches, but we now have Mr Warburton following in his footsteps with the use of nursery rhymes. Mr Warburton tip-toed around his party’s ineptitude by giving us a history lesson about the Grand Old Duke of York to explain the self-inflicted debacle over the disgraceful behaviour of his ex-colleague Mr Paterson. If anything, he really ought to know that it is bad form to mention anything about a Duke of York at this time. At least Mr Fisher in his saccharine piece about gongs, royalty and empire had the good sense to steer clear and conveniently avoids mentioning the royal embarrassment altogether. Mr Warburton would do well to remember that Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Also, we had a treat from Mr Loder, surely Dorset’s weakest link, where he talks about keeping Dorset on the agenda for ‘levelling up’. Well done for getting the slogan in Chris and I’m sure that it will win you some praise from conservative central office, but the electorate would like to see a concrete example of what ‘levelling up’ means other than it being an empty slogan solely to serve short term electoral purposes. Perhaps next time he could write back better? Anyway, with the byelection in North Shropshire there’s an opportunity for the electorate to give some feedback to Westminster about the calamitous blundering of this government led by a narcissistic buffoon who seems to cut his own hair with a knife and fork. This country needs better leadership at this time. Charles Ellis, Blandford Forum
