Sweden embarrasses UK gov by not being sinister
Tue 9:40 am +01:00, 22 Dec 2020UK GOV SILENT ABOUT ITS ULTERIOR MOTIVES FOR COMPLETE COCK-UP
Introduction
The Swedish government showed itself to have many times the intelligence of the UK government, which somehow contrived to be both lethally dim and slyly treacherous simultaneously.
The Swedish gov managed to avoid wrecking its own country and attacking its own people over a not particularly deadly or infectious but tremendously propagandised (in the UK anyway) flu bug.
The UK gov meanwhile is still dementedly wielding lockdowns like the sword of ruddy Damocles and doing its best to turn the UK into a “Bananas” Republic.
The Swedish government got slagged off by the collaborators, minions proxies and front men for the globalist crime syndictae.
Yet it has emerged for the debacle of the COVID hoax vindicated and with some honour.
With the continued exposure of the COVID hoax, the UK gov meanwhile has emerged looking like what it is: a dissolute, feckless band of slightly dim yet decidedly treasonous crooks and liars with third-rate intellects and tenth-rate morals.
So we have folly and treachery on three levels.
Th first is the now established fact that once you strip away the false reports and false stats inflicted on the populace by its own government, there never was any justification for lockdowns and the damage they have caused.
By the same token, the exposure of the hoax removes any justification for recklessly and irresponsibly rushing through experimental vaccines and using the entire nation as an experimental laboratory.
By comparing results with Sweden, it becomes obvious that lockdowns are a waste of time.
They are a waste of time because the “pandemic” that they rare purportedly “dealing with” does not exist as it has been portrayed.
The only reason to continue with that charade is that the government has some purpose for it than the one stated: for instance, wearing down the nation’s resistance to dodgy, booby-trapped vaccines.
Or some other ulterior motive so dark and dangerous that it dare not let on what it is.
Sweden has exposed the cruel folly of lockdown
Sweden’s strategy was subjected to a global smear campaign, but now it’s showing results.
The liberal Guardian used to regularly hail Sweden as a ‘model for global prosperity’ – though one which ‘right-wingers’ were ‘desperate’ to see fail. But during the pandemic, the same paper denounced Sweden as a ‘model for the right’ and branded its Covid policy a ‘deadly folly’.
The world looked on in fascination and terror as Swedes were still allowed to go to bars and restaurants, schools remained open for everyone under 16 and gatherings were still permitted for up to 50 people. For Anders Tegnell, the man in charge of Sweden’s Covid policy, full-on lockdown was ‘using a hammer to kill a fly’.
As we enter the autumn, the UK, France, Spain and other European countries are currently panicking over rising Covid case numbers, and the contrast with Sweden’s situation is becoming harder to ignore. The Times tells us that ‘Sweden’s low positive test rate “vindicates [its] coronavirus strategy”’. The Sun points out that ‘lockdown-free Sweden’ has recorded its ‘lowest number of Covid cases since March’, as ‘other countries’ are hit by a ‘second wave’. And the Guardian acknowledges that Sweden was spared the ‘European surge as coronavirus infections stay low’.
Governments and health officials are paying attention, too (though clearly not enough). Sweden is now one of the few countries on the UK’s travel corridor, meaning that arrivals from Sweden no longer have to quarantine – unlike arrivals from Spain and France which applied stringent lockdowns. Johan Giesecke, a strident critic of lockdown who played a key role in advising the Swedish health authorities, was recently awarded a promotion at the World Health Organisation to advise on all things pandemic-related.
In Denmark, public-health experts have tried to distance themselves from the government’s lockdown policy. They claim that the Danish prime minister ‘abused healthcare advice’ when she said ‘the authorities’ recommended lockdown. This was taken by most of the public to mean the Danish Health Authority and the infectious-diseases agency. In fact, the Danish Health Authority had recommended very few of the draconian measures that were eventually implemented.
The Swedophobes also delighted in tales of Sweden’s economic woes. ‘They literally gained nothing’, gloated one expert in the New York Times: ‘It’s a self-inflicted wound, and they have no economic gains.’ At the time, Sweden’s economy was faring almost as badly as everywhere else in Europe. But it has since become clear it was hit much less hard than other major countries. In August, the Swedish government pulled off the astonishing feat of generating a budget surplus.
