The UK is "now seeing a second wave" of Covid-19, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said, adding "it's been inevitable we'd see it in this country".

COVID-19 infectees fingerprints and DNA to be gathered under "terrorism" clauses

Data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) shows Covid-19 accounted for a mere 1.4 per cent of all deaths last month - just 482 out of 34,000.

The Bank of England will consider turning interest rates negative if the economy stalls in the face of soaring unemployment or a second wave of Covid.

Keeping interest rates on hold at 0.1 per cent today amid evidence that the economy is emerging well from the paralysis of lockdown, the Bank warned that the outlook was 'unusually uncertain'.

Minutes of today's monetary policy committee meeting show the Bank will in the following months consider the case for negative interest rates together with the Prudential Regulation Authority .

Health experts say PCR testing - the most widely used diagnostic test for COVID-19 in the US - are too sensitive and need to be adjusted to rule out people who have insignificant amounts of the virus in their systems because they're likely not contagious.

Today the PCR test, which provides a yes or no answer if a patient is infected, doesn't say how much of the virus a patient has in their body.

PCR tests analyze genetic matter from the virus in cycles and today's tests typically take 37 or 40 cycles, but experts say this is too high because it detects very small amounts of the virus that don't pose a risk.

Experts say 37 - 40 cycles is too much. The NHS is using 45 cycles...

...is it any wonder there's a casedemic in the UK?

Professor Carl Heneghan, a former doctor and now medicine expert at the University of Oxford, today vented his frustration about the 'panic' being stirred up over the coronavirus crisis.

Meeting with MPs on Parliament's Science and Technology Committee, he insisted coughs and colds spike every September when children head back to class, and become even more common during the winter.

But Government messaging about the deadly consequences of Covid-19 and forcing entire towns and regions into lockdown – rules that now cover 9.2million people – have left members of the public 'fearful' and 'terrorised'.

Defund the BBC, a right-wing group founded by Brexiteers, began crowdfunding in June and aims to decriminalise non-payment of the TV licence fee.

The group is using the money to create campaign material including billboards, merchandise and advertisements across social media.

The campaign says it has three main goals: to raise awareness of the legal implications of cancelling a TV licence, to urge the government to decriminalise non-payment of the licence fee and to lobby for the compulsory annual levy to be reduced to the lowest possible level in the BBC’s mid-charter review in 2022.

Ofcom bosses are launching a "full and urgent" investigation into David Icke 's coronavirus comments on LondonLive.

The notorious conspiracy theorist appeared on the channel at 10pm on Wednesday and sparked outrage by comparing Covid-19 vaccines to "fascism".

It sparked 41 complaints to the watchdog, and earlier today Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden called on Ofcom to launch a probe into the broadcast.

Now they have confirmed they are going ahead with a full investigation.

A series of 'modifications' to the Smart Energy Code have been proposed by officials and look set to pass into law by next spring.

These include giving networks the right to decide when they consider the grid to be in a state of 'emergency' and the power to switch off high usage electrical devices such as electric vehicle chargers and central heating systems in British homes.

Under the plans all homes would need to have a third generation smart meter installed, to include a function that allows meters in the home to receive and carry out orders made by the energy networks.

This would dramatically alter the role of smart meters, which are currently capable only of sending data on energy use to energy networks.

A few months ago someone knocked on my door and asked if I wanted a smart meter. I bluntly said I wasn't interested. I'm now pleased I did this.

Boris Johnson has led a fascist coup against the United Kingdom.

If that sounds like an exaggeration, just ask yourself how you’d have felt a year ago — or even six months ago — if you’d been told a British government was planning to institute a 10pm curfew, ban gatherings of more than six people, impose daily immunity tests before you were allowed to go about your business, employ Stasi-like volunteer ‘marshals’ to ensure public compliance and warning that it might even have to cancel Christmas?

The Coronavirus Act grants potentially dangerous powers including to detain some persons indefinitely, to take biological samples, and to give directions about dead bodies. Powers last up to 2 years with 6 monthly reviews, and lockdown powers could prevent protests against measures.

The Act also lowers protections under the Mental Health Act. Only one medical 'officer' is required to sign off a compulsory treatment order. There are changes to the court system and registration of deaths, and inquests have been suspended in some circumstances. There is no requirement for any medical certification for cremations. It also provides for the indemnity of health service activity for those providing care to a person who has, or is suspected of having, coronavirus disease.

Boris Johnson was at the centre of a furious row today after a minister advised people to snitch on neighbours who break the new legal ban on gatherings of more than six people .

As the Prime Minister arrived in Downing Street juggling a baby bottle, Dilyn the dog, his red box and a folder under his arm, policing minister Kit Malthouse told the morning media round that residents should “absolutely” call the police if they see neighbours holding gatherings of seven or more next door.

Our democracy is dying before our eyes.

Change.org was not our first choice, however when tried to log a petition directly with the parliament, the response was that, the petition has to be reviewed before it goes live to the public, and due to coronavirus, there are delays and it would be weeks.

We did not want to risk submitting and not having the petition go live for weeks, missing the crucial date of 26.09.

Bombard your MPs, let them know that this time they will be held accountable.

One of our members informed us there is a petition online submitted previously by someone we do not know or have any connection with, however it's for the same cause.

Lets get over a 100,000 before the 26.09.2020 so it can be discussed at parliament.

The Government has no legal right to impose the severe and miserable restrictions on our lives with which it has wrecked the economy, brought needless grief to the bereaved and the lonely and destroyed our personal liberty.

This is the verdict of one of the most distinguished lawyers in the country, the retired Supreme Court Judge Lord Sumption.

He said last week in a podcast interview: ‘I don’t myself believe that the Act confers on the Government the powers that it has purported to exercise.’

He was referring to the Public Health Act of 1984, the basis for almost all the sheaves of increasingly hysterical decrees against normal life which the Health Secretary Matt Hancock has issued since March. I promise you that it is not usual for a retired senior judge to use such language in public.

A father was left stunned after seeing hundreds of people standing in a 'five-hour' queue waiting for Covid tests at a walk-in centre in Manchester.

Tony Kirvin, 43, needed to get his son Michael tested after the 14-year-old started showing mild symptoms and was sent home from school.

The nearest testing centre was a 120-mile round trip, which he said was not feasible, so Mr Kirvin instead drove to a walk-in centre near their home in Bury on Thursday.

But he was shocked to see hundreds of people queuing up outside the Mosses Centre, with many not wearing masks, video footage shows.

It comes amid wider complaints that the NHS Test and Trace system is directing people to Covid-19 test centres hundreds of miles away from their homes.

TEN million daily Covid tests will be dished out to get Brits back to the footie, theatre and their mate’s house under new Government plans costing £100billion.

The entire population of the UK could be tested in a week under Downing Street’s ambitious Operation Moonshot programme.

Boris Johnson vowed to roll out new tests which can deliver results in just 15 minutes.

He said a negative result would give Brits a “freedom pass” — allowing people to mingle like they did before Covid.

But this morning Transport Secretary Grant Shapps admitted that the new tech wasn't ready yet.

...

Under the plan, Brits would swab themselves in the morning and be given a 24-hour pass to mingle without having to stick to social distancing rules.

...

However, critics have pointed out that the hugely expensive plan costs almost as much as the NHS's yearly budget for England - £130bn.

Dentists are "firefighting" to deal with a "huge backlog" and will not catch up until 2021, the Welsh general practitioners committee chairman said.

Tom Bysouth also warned many of Wales' 500 surgeries were facing the threat of redundancies or even closure.

He said untreated fillings could make teeth irreparable with signs of mouth cancer not being picked up.

The British Dental Association called for support, saying if practices fail, patients will have "nowhere to go".

"It will take a long time to catch up. Effectively, if we were acting in normal circumstances, it would take at least another six months," Mr Bysouth said.

SCOTTISH Government health chief Jason Leitch admitted the tests used to detect Covid cases are “a bit rubbish”, it emerged today.

The national clinical director suggested the “antigen” tests - the results from which are driving ministers’ policy - are not fully reliable as they can give positive results to people who are not infectious.

The disruption to hospitals in England during the pandemic has meant the number of patients facing long waits for routine operations has soared.

More than two million people on the waiting list - half the total - have been waiting more than 18 weeks, the highest since records began in 2007.

Some 83,000 have waited over a year, up from 2,000 before the pandemic.

The new coronavirus rules in England banning social gatherings of more than six people will not be kept in place "any longer than we have to", Health Secretary Matt Hancock has said.

"This sacrifice is vital to control the virus for the long term," he told MPs.

Boris Johnson vowed to roll out new tests which can deliver results in just 15 minutes. -- He said a negative result would give Brits a “freedom pass” — allowing people to mingle like they did before Covid.

Businesses across the UK planned more than 300,000 redundancies in June and July as coronavirus wreaked havoc on the economy, new figures have revealed today.

The crisis hammered UK firms as 1,888 British employers planned 156,000 job cuts in June, a sixfold increase on June 2019.

Some 1,784 firms made plans to cut nearly 150,000 jobs in July - almost a sevenfold increase on July 2019 - according to an FOI by the BBC.

The lay-offs have continued as Virgin Atlantic announced more than 1,000 additional job cuts on Friday, becoming the latest company to lay off large numbers of people.

It joined Costa to bring the total number of jobs lost in major redundancies to 2,800 last week alone.

Skin Kerr Aesthetics, Hair and Beauty, in Bootle, Merseyside, shared the notice on its Facebook page, which has since been deleted.

The poster, stuck to the salon window with masking tape, had bullet points saying: 'Covid Free Salon; no masks, we take cash; Covid talk is banned; you can't catch what doesn't exist.'

The bullet points end with '#voodoovirusisbullsh**' and '#wedonotconsent' and states 'please respect the rules of the salon'.

Developers are exploiting planning laws to convert empty shops, banks and barbers into tiny high street flats.

The new developments have sparked concerns that UK high streets are turning into modern slums.

The impact of the coronavirus on high-street businesses have resulted in a rush to transform them into residences under permitted development rights (PDRs).

...

PDR flats are not bound by the minimum space standard, which says studios have to be at least 400 square feet, or 37 square metres.

In Southampton, the Open Fire Centre, a store which sold electric and gas fires, has been converted into six studio flats, the smallest measuring just 160 square feet.

It comes less than four months after axing 3,150 roles and announcing the closure of its base at London's Gatwick Airport.

The company confirmed a further 400 employees left through voluntary redundancy or early retirement.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock yesterday warned that the UK 'must do everything in our power' to stop a second surge of people going into hospital with the coronavirus, which he said was starting to happen in Europe.

But experts told MailOnline Mr Hancock's comments were 'alarmist' and that there is currently 'no sign' of a second wave coming over the horizon. The data shows hospital cases are also not rising by much in Europe, contrary to the Health Secretary's claim.

Since midnight, people living in the Glasgow, West Dunbartonshire and East Renfrewshire areas have been slapped back into a partial lockdown.

Scotland's First Minister today doubled down on her 'difficult decision' which followed a flurry of 66 coronavirus cases.

But many Glaswegians remain puzzled by her reasoning as to why they can congregate in a pub or restaurant but not in their relatives' houses.

And there are even rumblings of a rebellion, with some residents suggesting they will refuse to follow the rules.

Strict quarantine rules combined with the fears of infection in the UK have seen overseas travellers drop out from coming to the capital.

And office staff refusing to go back to work have also seen shops and hospitality plummet to dangerous levels.

It's Friday at month's end just before a Bank Holiday – Pay and Bills Day – and users of Santander's UK arm have been unable to use online banking and apps since 9:49 AM BST. Thousands of companies use the bank to process UK payroll.

More than 2,000 reported having issues at publication on third-party downtime monitor DownDetector, with financial hub London the pulsating red zit on the outage map.

While some have speculated that the bank hit a snag with a systems update this morning (we've asked Santander for confirmation), very little has been said by the bank itself, aside from some "try again later" messages from its Twitter support.

An angry crowd of people gathered outside Buckingham Palace and chanted "pedophile" repeatedly towards the royal families’ London home.

New evidence has emerged which shows that UK hospital admissions for COVID-19 were ‘over-reported’ during the height of the crisis back in April. It seems that patients who were being taken in for other common illnesses were in fact being counted as ‘COVID’ in the government’s statistical totals.

This latest embarrassing admission comes on the heels of other similar revelations of dubious record-keeping by the government – all of which have been pivotal in giving the false impression to the public that there were more COVID deaths than actually took place.

Seven in 10 NHS research projects have been affected by the coronavirus outbreak, an analysis by Southampton University found. One in 10 — a total of 1,500 including clinical trials of new medicines as well as lab research — have been stopped entirely because of the virus.

A 67-year-old given lopinavir/ritonavir — which is being used experimentally around the world — needed a pacemaker to recover from his episode.

The man, who had high blood pressure and coronary artery disease, was given the drugs after catching Covid-19 and ending up in hospital.

And within days the unnamed patient in the case report — at a hospital in Singapore — saw his resting heart rate drop from 84 beats per minute, within the healthy range, to below 30.

The Queen's Nursing Institute found one in 10 care home staff were told to change resuscitation orders for patients, The Telegraph reports. In some cases, they didn't consult family members first.

Other care home staff said that during the height of the coronavirus crisis, hospitals were refusing to admit residents from care homes.

The orders mean doctors will not attempt to restart a patient’s heart with defibrillators or cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and will be allowed to die if it happens naturally.

Another example showing why the BBC can't be trusted.

Nursing homes were pressured into accepting patients with coronavirus while simultaneously being refused treatment for residents by hospitals and GPs, according to research.

A report by the Queen's Nursing Institute (QNI) found homes were told hospitals had a blanket 'no admissions' policy at the height of the pandemic.

The QNI, a charity which focuses on the improvement of nursing care of people in their own home, found care home residents were regularly refused treatment in April and May.

The research found GPs and local managers in some homes had placed unlawful do not resuscitate orders on residents.

Nearly a month after a last-minute announcement on July 25 smashed up tens of thousands of Spanish holidays, I asked Matt Hancock’s Health Department some simple questions. I began this process last Monday morning:

‘How many of the UK travellers arriving from Spain after the introduction of the July 25 quarantine subsequently tested positive for Covid-19, how many of them were hospitalised, how many have recovered and (if applicable) how many died?’

Well, if they know the answers, they are not telling. So I will say here that either they don’t know or don’t really care, in which case how dare they muck people’s lives up in this way?

Or are they embarrassed to reveal the answer because it shows that they made a fuss about nothing and the truth makes them look foolish?

The Greencore Factory in Northampton, that employs more than 2,100 people, will close from Friday, with staff and members of their households having to isolate for 14 days.

Office for National Statistics data released today show that 1,320 people had the virus mentioned on their death certificate in July, roughly 21 people per 100,000.

In the same month, dementia killed nearly four times as many people (4,034) and heart disease took the lives of almost triple the number of patients (3,868).

Conditions like strokes, aneurysms and lung diseases are now killing double the amount of people in England as Covid-19. But the number of people dying from influenza and pneumonia is similar.

In Wales, coronavirus did not even rank among the 10 most common causes of death, with just 16.7 per 100,000 people dying in July, or 70 people.

Public sector debt has now gone above £2 trillion for the first time in history as the Government was forced to borrow cash to keep UK plc afloat during the coronavirus crisis.

Ministers borrowed £26.7 billion in July alone, according to the latest data published by the Office for National Statistics.

The ONS said borrowing for last month was £28.3 billion more than the same time last year when the public finances were actually running at a surplus.

The borrowing figure for July is also the fourth highest since records began in 1993, as the Government continues to throw billions of pounds at the economy to try to help it recover.

My talk this week with a Nurse in Devon UK who tells me there are no #Coronavirus #Covid19 cases in any of the big hospitals in Devon UK, yet there are still empty beds and people dying without treatment. She also speaks of nurses having heart and breathing problems from compulsory face masks.

Forty-five per cent of the 5,000 respondents admitted they would not give a Covid-19 vaccine to their child.

A fifth of parents who didn't want to vaccine their children said they believe the virus is 'fake and doesn't really exist'.

Five out of six of those parents (86 per cent) argued the vaccination would be unsafe with 'nasty' side effects.

And over a third (35 per cent) answered that there was no need because children are 'practically immune' from the virus.

Police forces in the UK have been criticised after they rejected an application in which the candidate admitted they do not believe human beings can biologically alter their gender.

The London Telegraph reports that a woman who applied for a job at Norfolk Constabulary was refused on the grounds of her “gender critical” opinions.

The police force told her that her views would “not be something we could ­uphold within the constabulary”.

The woman, who is already a police officer of 16 years, applied to a total of 26 forces elsewhere in the country and was rejected by over half of them for the same reason.
