Plus, reaction to Sajid Javid’s Covid-19 briefing with Michael Walker and Dalia Gebrial.

About The Author
Those colours! You’re not going to morph into Good Morning Britain on us, are you!
Javid is living proof that you can be born the son of a bus driver in the Uk and still become a Banking crook/Landlord/Landowner/Tory politician.
Veganism. Let's hope the government are coming for your hamburger!
anyone else pick up on johnson’s dog whistle AND call back to his reckless comment a few months ago about greed being good using a quote from a film about rampant greed?
Nothing substantial will ever happen. Money is the root of all the motivation mustered in the elites. Nothing will get done until they become affected by it and by then they will only be interested in protecting themselves. The human race as no ambition to change. To do so would require a complete and total change to our current function.
They're literally pumping your rivers full of sewage. Hardly green.
Just hot air from doris
The joke is, pressure on the NHS is the Tory plan working they never want to see an NHS that is not under pressure.
Johnson talks the talk but when it comes down to the business end he does nothing,
Waiting until 'we feel it's becoming unsustainable' for the already massively overworked NHS is the very DEFINITION of 'hesitating to act'!! I honestly can't figure out if it's sheer ineptitude on the government's part, or if they genuinely want us all to get Covid so they don't need to worry about paying pensions, benefits etc to a huge sector of poor and vulnerable people because we'll be dead.
I think we're in a world now where it could very well be both. What's absolutely clear is that our government do not give a damn about us.
Michael Walker – can't believe you didn't get the Wall Street reference. It's an iconic film. Hang your head in shame! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In relation to nightclub drugging… I have a family member who attended uni / clubs in Cheltenham… many of his friends / flat mates had their drinks spiked in a small number of clubs … bar staff were observed spiking people's drinks – turning their backs on customers to avoid being seen. Other people would then look out for said stumbling students and steal from them. Everyone knew this was happening, including the police, but nothing was done about it.
There is no plan, its all bluster and misdirection.
Hey i really like ur show but would’ve appreciated a content warning before the story on date rape. Turned it off quickly but its still really fucking with me 😂
Javid, I'm a nurse. A few days ago I had 22 acute patients to look after and only one health care assistant to help me. The sickness rate among staff is high, we are all burnt out. I'm thinking about giving up nursing because it is just not doable. I'm having to spend my days off in bed because I'm feeling ill. What do you know about working with no breaks, no water, for 13 pounds per hour in an extremely stressful environment?
Love you all!
The bottom line of all this 'zero carbon policy' thing is, the material resources are there, and the financial resources are most definitively there.
It's just it would piss off the people keeping this government in place to actually distribute the cost fairly, because then they might see their socioeconomic status in jeopardy. For them, saving the world just isn't worth it.
When your example for the UK's complicity in the climate crisis is that COP26 will be hosted in Glasgow and James Watt's father was a slave trader then it is no wonder that the left struggles to be taken seriously.
Farage looks very tired and worn out, bless. Interesting that he dislike anyone else being independent.
Sir Saintly Starmer seems content, and has been since taking power, being in opposition as it means he hasn't got to take responsibility for failure.
pound shop facists. excellent.😂
I had a heat pump 40 years ago!
From the tone of Johnson's pulpit- tapping speech: depend on market forces and technology to sort out the problem. No funding to get the price to drop sooner. Instead splash some money around to be seen to be doing something – however irrelevant – while making sure your mates get the contracts Write a few thousand pages of obfuscation. Finally, blame businesses and the public for not buying heat pumps quickly enough.
SPIKING DRINKS After watching few short news in which they were talking about bar staff as purity of love I exactly raised that question.
A lot of bar staff members are descent people. However psychopaths and sociopaths CONSTITUE 5% OF THE POPULATION. Than there are greedy and other form of dishonest people in society.
So statististcly even behind the bars some of the staff is evel.
Heat pumps are not the answer. They are ok in rural areas but can't be used in city's. What we really need is district heating. That also doesn't force the cost this change on private households
Here in Aotearoa / New Zealand, heat pumps are pretty standard in homes. Especially combined with decent curtains to help keep the heat in, they're fantastic.
Wonder how long will the next new covid/ flu will be unleased on the unsuspecting British people . Vac loads of money .
The irony – watching Dahlia talking about the NHS staff being overwhelmed and she was interrupted by an ad for an advert for a privateedical company 😳
Dalia says some excellent things for a society to aspire to be like with regard to its female members – but not how to get there. Aspriations are great but the hard strategies to acheieve them are what's needed.
I got rid of my gas boiler this year (it was hard as most "professionals" laughed at me for not wanting gas). £813 for air-air heat pump for heating/dehumidifyer/aircon. £240 for an electric combi shower unit. £95 for electric taps x2, the downside to these is due to the hard water I have to disconnect the unit and clean them once a month. £400 for electric upgrades. £200 for removal. £1843 to get rid of gas. Granted I have a small space so only needed a single internal unit to do heat and cool the whole space. 5 months on and very happy 🙂
Re masks.. nhs not collapsed yet so tralalalah let's do things that encourage it to collapse. Whilst saying thank you. Vote for us
Fact : Tackling the Climate crisis is way way way way way beyond the type of minds that are in power .

Drink spiking Nigel Farage? Not what i was expecting but i'm prepared to give it a go
No fishing boats no nets. Simples.
Amazed if people aren't familiar with heat pumps. There are plenty on public buildings – inverted air conditioning, cools the outside, warms the inside.
Not much point with our crap levels of insulation.
Nearly everyone's home has increased in so called value by more than enough to pay for insulation & green heating.
Michael, please just wear a mask when you go to public indoor spaces. Surely acting on independent thought and and NOT following the crowd is what Novara is all about. Why you think that just following what the herd are doing is acceptable with mask wearing when it’s in full contradiction of the known health facts – facts you report regularly – is a reasonable position is baffling. I’m pretty sure that isn’t your stance on other points of contention- ‘just do what everyone else is doing’?? So, please lead by example and put a mask on!
Nigel is in the RA!
Love to hear intelligent news from young informed people
Hi Novara team, I love you but I also think you’re failing to cover the climate justice struggle. This speaker from Possible neglected to mention any of the key failings of the government’s net zero strategy – overall it is focused only on technological fixes and relies entirely on market forces plus individual choice for their uptake – it’s not just “something”. As a climate justice activist putting my freedom on the line and a Novara fan, I feel seriously let down by your lack of engagement with the CEE. You seem hot on social justice but that is intrinsically bound up with climate justice. Please get more informed speakers in because the CEE is the greatest threat the world has ever faced.
I get YouTube adverts all the time of that fortune and freedom video. 🤷♂️🤦♂️ Adverts are bad enough without that moron talking to me.
Heat pumps in old housing stock is NOT viable
