'This week we heard the latest horrifying health statistic: 6,700 more people lost their lives in their homes over the last two months compared to previous years. But with just 203 of these tragedies involving Covid-19, it’s scandalous that the country seems to be continuing to run a Covid-only health service, and insanity that there’s no national agenda encouraging people to seek treatment if they need it. Statistic after statistic reveals the extent of our health crisis – a crisis nothing to do with Covid-19. Referrals to hospitals are down a third; 10 million could be waiting for treatment by Christmas. Up to 290,000 missed cancer referrals during the first 10 weeks of lockdown, and with national cancer screening programmes effectively paused, up to 1.2 million missed screenings each month. The consequences are tragic. Countless cancer patients now face terminal illness due to treatment delays. Where are the Nightingale Hospitals for them?'
And the MSM had the gall to 'smear' me and others like me who went to the Trafalgar Square Rally as a 'conspiracy theorist' or a 'nutter!'
Keep up the good work!
Grumpy C - Thanks for all you are doing especially as you are in the loop and must be worried sick. Do take care, being up at 2.30am and the other morning at 4.30 am is not a good idea but knowing you, you have to do what you have to do! As far as your last sentence goes try and treat them with the contempt they deserve. In a war there is always cannon fodder!
@Grumpy Cat Good work, keep going!
I did write to mine yesterday, 15 pages letter with facts, data and questions, excited (NOT) to see the response. Will share both the letter and response when received.
Yes, I've been up since 2.00am today as well. I did manage to get a 'lie in' yesterday at 5.00am. I also got to see some friends that I hadn't seen since February because of 'lockdown', so it was a bit of a holiday for me! At the moment I am writing up a list of MPs. It is quite a task as there are 650 of them, and I am a third of the way through. Once the list is complete, I will be e-mailing every single one of them. I know I am not one of their constituents, but they were voted in power to serve the British Public, and that includes me! They are going to be reviewing the Covid19 restrictions this month, and unless we can persuade them otherwise, we are going to be stuck with these draconian measures for the forseeable future. I have an e-mail with my 'evidence' ready to go. Protesting is all well and good ( and I am one of them), but there are a lot of people out there protesting with their own agenda. KBF was formed to end the lockdown and its restrictions. So please, if you have any evidence, do e-mail your MP. My evidence will be focusing on fiddling of the figures, faulty and misleading PCR tests, exploding figures for people waiting for hospital treatment, and the flimsy evidence for the enforced wearing of masks. Time is running out folks!
Hi Grumpy Cat, great stuff. If you are sending exactly the same email to all the MPs, you could use GMail Merge instead which would allow you to send the same email template to a given list. It allows you to change the main info like Dear Mr/Ms/Mrs/Sir, xxxxxx, etc without having to send them individually. I used this when I sent my OPEN LETTER to all the MPs. It cost me £29 for a year's subs. Let me now if you need more info on this so I can dig it up.
Cheers
Michael
MickeyG - Sounds very interesting thanks! I am not very tech minded being an 'old lady', but I will have a look if that is not too much trouble?
Hi Grumpy Cat, It is a bit fiddly until you get the hang of it. So, at this point, it would be best to continue with the manual approach as time is of the essence and you have already done quite a lot and got into a good rhythm. I only know the Gmail version so if you are using a xxxx@gmail.com account for your emails then I can dig up the stuff for you for the next time. But, you are right, this is a national issue so all MPs need to be informed which is the argument I used but most of them sent the same reply that they could only respond to their constituents as per "parliamentary" protocols. However, the few that did send a proper reply only replied that they had forwarded my email to my MP. At least they cannot later plead ignorance. I hope that you will be luckier than I was.
Regards
MickeyG
MickeyG - You're a star! We can only do our bit. At least we can try to make them think before they vote on extending the Coronavirus regulations. If they carry on with these draconian measures, it will be more livelihoods and lives down the pan!
G. C. you are a ⭐️ too! Thank you!
