So what are your theories about Covid then, the one that your corrupt government and their BBC mouthpiece told you?

Interesting that you immediately focus on COVID, rather than engage with the part about Johan Cryuff being alive and well and in witness protection waiting to tell the World "the truth".

“What are your theories about covid then?” is a brilliantly telling question

Sad the road Le Tissier has gone down

I am of the opinion the lab leak theory is most plausible now though

It always was the most plausible, really. That aspect of covid is very revealing of how things that may or may not have happened can be politicised in advance: it became “right wing” to give credibility to the possibility a lab leak. I myself definitely leaned towards the idea of it emerging from a market, mostly because of how the lab leak was only really shown in the media as ravings of MAGA types. The reality is that theres no inherent political underpinning in “maybe this virus came out of the lab what is in the same place the virus came from?”

Yeah, the CCP got lucky that any blame of them could be written off as MAGA conspiracy theory early on. Now it feels like we’ve all decided we’re just not going to talk about 2020-2021 any more

Jon Stewart did a bit on it: “Oh there’s a Novel respiratory coronavirus spreading in Wuhan China. Who can we ask about this? Maybe the Wuhan Novel respiratory coronavirus lab”. :roll:

Hopefully the headline writers have already got "WHAT A CRYUFF TURN OF EVENTS!" lined up just in case.

Who's actually running all these witness protection schemes anyway, since The Government and The Deep State are all our enemies? Benevolent private companies who are just seeking the truth?

It always was . Funny how the Chinese deep cleaned the lab before the WHO arrived to inspect the place .

As I’m sat in a cafe, waiting while er indoors has an eye test, and a tad bored, what do you believe Covid was all about?

Left the cafe now - so don’t bother…….

Matt Ridley's book "Viral: The Search for the Origin of Covid-19" is a good read for anyone interested in the lab leak theory.

He's got some interviews on YouTube too, but since most of the interviewers are from the "far right" they won't appeal to all. The Brendan O'Neill one is worth listening to, even if only for 10 mins when Ridley makes his case.

They probably wanted to point at anything that wasn’t themselves and mass/social media gave them an open goal

Is this Matt Ridley the Lord Viscount Matthew Ridley one, or a different Matt Ridley?

Wonder what it was that Cruyff witnessed? Eight years now since he "died". Would have thought the case would have come to court by now. Of course, with a cover up on this scale, we'll probably never hear about it. I imagine Cruyff will be living on a ranch in Wyoming or somewhere, trying to remember not to do a Cruyff turn every time anything spherical rolls towards him

Just read on Wikipedia that he was cremated within 24 hours of his death. Have to admit, that screams of a cover up. Johan knew too much. Getting the old lung cancer after smoking 50 fags a day for several decades is just a very convenient Big State smokescreen.

It's interesting that people think there is a building consensus that a lab leak is more likely when actually the overwhelming sciebtific consensus is that the research over the last few years has increased confidence in the likely cause of the outbreak being zoonosis. No one can say it wasn't a lab leak but it's much less likely.

I suppose it just depends whether you think peer reviewed and replicated scientific research carries more weight than a Jon Steeart joke.

Please post the overwhelming sciebtific [sic] consensus then as I’d love to read it and see whether John Steeart [sic] was wrong.
