THE GOVERNMENT INTEND TO EXTERMINATE THE WEAKEST

The government policy to allow the virus to infect the majority to build up a herd immunity, is based upon a callous calculation that the first wave of the virus must exterminate the weakest, while the strong and the advantaged will live on, better able to withstand its second foray, plus the hope that at some stage a vaccine may become available. This is in contrast to the humanitarian approach adopted by other nations, to try and protect the weakest by slowing the spread of the virus. It seems to the Tories and to the wealthy privileged Johnson, that the weakest are expendable. Evolution is notoriously amoral and ruthless and yet it has provided us with the conundrum of humanitarianism and altruism. It seems that the government's direction is to return us to our animalistic roots.

"To protect everyone"...is the cynical propaganda permitting the Prime Minister to jeopardise the lives of the weakest to attain herd immunity. The vague aside that we "may be able to protect the elderly and the sick' as the virus sweeps through the population is tokenism, to conceal the ugly truth, admitted by Johnson, that many families will lose their loved ones before their time. It is pernicious to argue that they will have given their lives to achieve 'herd immunity', when the approaches that would have protected them, have been rejected as too damaging for the economy. The government's merciless and utilitarian approach can be summed up as, it is better to lose the weakest, who act as a drain on resources, and safeguard the future earning power of the strong.

ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART ONE


ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART TWO

I AM PROUD OF MY WRITING, FOR JESUS’S SAKE, THAT HAS HAD ME FOUND INNOCENT IN HEAVEN, BUT TWICE A CRIMINAL ON THE EARTH. THE FIRST IN 1990 WHEN I WROTE A BIBLICAL TEXT ON THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT IN PEACEFUL PROTEST ABOUT THE BOMBING OF YOUNG IRAQI RECRUITS DURING THE FIRST GULF WAR. THE SECOND, IN 2016 WHEN I WROTE ON MY BLOG, TO ALERT THE PUBLIC ABOUT A PAEDOPHILE, AND WAS SUCCESSFUL IN FORCING THE AUTHORITIES TO STOP HIM HAVING ACCESS TO CHILDREN. THERE WAS ALMOST A THIRD! IN 1997, WHEN I WAS ARRESTED FOR NAILING MY PROPOSALS FOR REFORM OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND ON THE DOOR OF CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL. WORDS ARE POWERFUL MESSAGES THAT CHALLENGE  CORRUPTION, CONFRONT THE WICKED AND CREATE A BETTER WORLD. JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED  TO COMMUNICATE HIS WORDS,  IRRESPECTIVE OF THE COST.
"You brave, courageous and wonderful man. To stand up for the truth in the face of suppression and oppression is truly an act of a pure heart."
