I was snubbed by my MP Angela Eagle, who got shielded by a rainbow 🌈 brolly 🌂

Pinocchio was a bit tied up, so Rita stepped in:

"We are committed to the safety of all journalists, reflecting their contribution to an open, functioning democracy. We oppose all attempts to restrict press freedom, silence debate, abuse journalists, or spread misinformation - whether online or offline."

I feel as though there must be precedent, though can think of none. Was there ever a time when public officials were so openly, childishly and vacuously partisan?

Just a reminder: the previous message about UK Column was from me. Messages like this are not.

Also, if you receive what appears to be a personal message from me, with no prior interaction in the chat, it will be an impostor, of which there are many.

Telegram, for all its faults, does keep one on one's toes.

Classic bot humour.

On the cards for today.....and I think bird flu will get a mention, too.

Tune in at 1pm, or later at ukcolumn.org.

Full news and all the source links: www.ukcolumn.org/video/uk-column-news-3rd-july-2024

During the last segment of today's UK Column News, I gave an update on the rollout of the Bird Flu Show 2024. Unfortunately, this will result in dead and damaged humans and very many slaughtered animals, for no reason at all. Do keep your eye on the planned Bird Flu Summit, slated for October of this year.

I would encourage people to remind their acquantainces (in particular, those that failed to smell the COVID rat) about the way in which the swine flu saga unfolded in 2009; withdrawal of the vaccine especially.

Also, another reminder that use of the PCR test will only ever produce a theoretical result as it is not, and never will be, a diagnostic tool. It does not prove illness, it cannot predict illness, nor the genesis of whatever it detects and, of course, it does not provide evidence of the existence of viruses.
