Dear Mr Whittingdale,
I write to urge you to vote against the Covid extension measures on 28 September 2020.
What is going on?
Stripping ‘the people’ of their civil liberties and inalienable rights; literally suffocating our democracy and gagging, placing fines on any who do not comply - is tyranny.
Govt website stated on 19 March that COVID-19 had been downgraded from a ‘high consequence infectious disease', yet within a few days the country was forced into lock-down. Three weeks to ‘flatten the curve?’ And protect the NHS. Never before has such a ‘law’ been used in England, even during the wars.
April/May I saw with my own eyes the level of ‘overwhelming’ the NHS suffered. Wards were not full, I witnessed staff being told they were not required - Billericay Hospital was closing wards, ambulances were driving around empty.
There’s little evidence to support the Govt’s insistence that this virus was ever as disastrous as they claimed and continue to claim and who deny a voice to the hundreds of experts in the subject area who disagree. Instead they look to Prof Ferguson, whose ‘advice’ led to the stench of burning flesh across our countryside and the destruction of farming communities nation-wide in the wake of Foot and Mouth. This same Prof Fergusson - also the ‘brains’ behind the SARs debacle, betrayed his true beliefs regarding Covid-19 when he permitted his girlfriend, who lived in a separate household with her husband and children, to stay in his residence with him. Then of course there was the Cummings gallivant.
Prof Whitty’s statement on 4 March 2020: ‘For the great majority of people this will be a mild or moderate disease…And there are some people who will get it with no symptoms at all, but for a minority of people.…for people with pre-existing health conditions - the risk is higher.’
Where’s the opposition? What are you being paid for? Other than the lone voice of Sir Desmond Swayne; I’ve heard nothing from any politician. I’m informed that there’s been no Green Paper - no White Paper - no First and Second Readings. No Committee Stage. No revision by the Upper House. No Royal Assent.
I trust that there will be a very icy inquiry into Govt handling of the whole episode.
We have ceased to be a parliamentary democracy. To quote Peter Hitchens, ‘Nobody passed an Enabling Act allowing rule by decree. The House of Lords and the House of Commons are now the Dead Parrot Parliament.’
So many people are terrified. I’m a mental health therapist. In my immediate area a dozen or so people have contacted me, either for themselves or on behalf of another and I am aware of many others severely depressed and/or anxious and one; an older man who, with support, dragged himself out of the pit of despair caused by depression and anxiety, having made two serious suicide attempts one near fatal. He went on to become a local church & choir member, performing at various venues - folk clubs, member of U3A and until this dehumanising ‘decree’ also organised monthly walks and talks all over Essex and beyond. This man has now had a complete mental breakdown and lost five stone in weight, brought on by the over-hyped-terror of an illness by Govt and mainstream media’s irresponsible churning out of daily death figures with further restrictions on freedoms. To say nothing of the outrageous cuts to mental health services. I telephoned the advice line on Saturday after he said 'couldn't go on', to be told that this particular team do not work at weekends.
We do not have daily proclamations of those who are suffering as he is, or suicides or daily death tolls from cancers, heart disease, strokes. And ... this scaremongering has been an intentional tactic!
SAGE minutes: 22 March 2020, ‘A substantial number of people still do not feel sufficiently threatened…The perceived level of personal threat needs to be increased amongst those who are complacent, using hard-hitting emotional messaging’
Unbelievable. In my country!
The majority of people attending rallies/protests are not ‘conspiracy theorists. For example, many of the 40,000 plus who went to Trafalgar Square a couple of weeks ago were ordinary folk - families, middle-class, ‘normal’ people, who wanted to voice their concerns, disbelief, anger, that their liberties are fast disappearing under a strange new regime based on fear and panic. The psychological and physiological effect on our children is irrevocable. Being taught to see themselves as carriers of disease. Forced to wear masks! Muzzles is a more accurate term. Children, who for the first time in our history are being ordered not to engage in hugs - games - normality. 'Don't kill your grandmother'...A whole generation of ruined lives and your leader and his cabinet appear to have no concern or awareness - let alone accurate data.
I have written at length - spontaneously and from the heart. I ask that you take the time to reflect and voice in Parliament the concerns of myself along with many of your constituents as to the effects these draconian rules are having on individuals and throughout a democratic, so-called, society.
Yours sincerely,
