When a serious crime has been committed, the police generally lose no time in their efforts to locate the culprit and bring them to account. In this article we consider our long term prospects and what we need to do to improve them. What happened this morning? When you back a sure fire horse with your whole pay packet and it loses, what do you say to your partner and family when you arrive home on Friday afternoon empty handed? · Dr. Rochelle…

I find myself perplexed that commercial pharmaceutical enterprises, despite huge areas of uncertainty around safety and outcomes, felt that they could launch their experimental mRNA vaccines on the world’s population. I am also confused how public health officials, the medical profession, and politicians became cheerleaders, even when a significant number of highly qualified scientists were waving red flags. Worse, when the accumulating adverse…

I wrote this newsletter recently to update you on the work the Free Speech Union is doing in our battle for free speech. But following the disturbing scene we saw yesterday at Parliament, I wanted to share some thoughts first. Protest will always highlight contentious issues, that's its role, so I am aware that supporters of the Free Speech Union will have a wide variety of feelings and perspectives on what we've seen unfold. But hopefully we…

The Prime Minister’s Statement, delivered to the House at the start of the Parliamentary year, was riddled with platitudes, self-congratulation and hyperbole. What wasn’t mentioned or acknowledged was the issue of how divided a society we have become. This is something that has seeped out and spread widely throughout our country. It is insidious, undesirable and unwelcome. · The Prime Minister has become very accustomed to delivering edicts to…

If the Winter Olympics, this year to be hosted by Beijing (04-20 Feb), were solely about sport then the only logistical issue would be in regard to Covid-19. However, from the one-day event until 684 BC, when the games were extended to three days, the games were always about more than the games otherwise it would have been deemed unnecessary to extended the games to five days during the fifth century BCE. Although kudos mattered uniforms didn’t…

In a great many ways, New Zealand is an enormously attractive country to live in. We have a temperate climate, largely free of extremes of either heat or cold. We have magnificent mountains, and beautiful and uncrowded beaches. We produce enough food to feed ourselves many times over. In a water-short world, we have more fresh water, per person, than all but two countries in the world. We have abundant open spaces, with just five million…

A few days ago the liberal New York Times with a two year history of supporting the official US government Covid narratives published an unusual article “The C.D.C. Isn’t Publishing Large Portions of the Covid Data It Collects” · https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/20/health/covid-cdc-data.html?searchResultPosition=2 · Sound familiar? Here in NZ you have to go through a complicated process of separating historical data from the cumulative reports…

From our unique perspective in New Zealand there is probably no more twisted tale of the pandemic than the transformation of medical ethics. Due to our closed borders, NZ has so few Covid cases (18,000 at the time of writing) and almost no Covid deaths (53), that our pandemic medical history so far has been largely about isolation, vaccination, and testing. The political history of the pandemic has been about control of our borders, the…

Yesterday St John published their 2021 call out report. Startling rises underline the extent to vaccine injury. In order to understand these figures refer back to Medsafe adverse effects reports I covered on February 3rd: · https://hatchardreport.com/is-the-analysis-of-the-pfizer-covid-19-vaccine-outcomes-data-a-case-of-misdiagnosis-and-medical-misadventure/ · St John ambulance cases increased by 6.8% in 2021 to 555,000. Out of the St. John…

In what might be an alarming augury for the NZ government, I have noticed during the last few days that a number of the provaxx but science-qualified bloggers overseas like Drs Vinay Prasad and John Campbell have begun to ask variations of “What did we do wrong?”. Our government could ask similar questions of themselves. Time to change gear before it is too late How did our government policy and understanding become ‘stuck’, unable to take…
