Politics before Science … the Who’s Who of Advising

OMG we are SO tolerant of these Muppets!

We’ve still got Flaky Ferguson and the dismal Dim Witty posing as Scientists. The former doesn’t seem to be able to count (massive errors on every piece of ‘guidance’) and the latter makes Marvin from the Hitch Hikers Guide sound like a supreme optimist.
They can’t even get Omicron right when the South Africans have already given them the answers, and they’re a month ahead of us.

Here’s a link to an interview between Fraser Nelson of the Spectator and Graham Medley who is the Chairman of the Sage Modelling Committee, in practice more like the Alice in Wonderland Covid Prediction Committee.

Read it and weep, the visually impaired leading the visually impaired – you see I can be PC if I try hard.

Professor Medley says that “saying something could happen is not saying that there’s a realistic chance of it happening”. True, but then why do Sage modellers publish some scenarios and not others?
e.g. the most likely case, with error limits stated?
See below to a link which compares the predictions used versus the actual outcomes. They have been well and truly conning us.

A J P Morgan study using known data on Omicron from South Africa deduced that for the UK

“Bed occupancy by Covid-19 patients at the end of January would be 33% of the peak seen in January 2021”

This would be manageable without further restrictions imposed in December 2022. It becomes very clear that the Government is leading the Science, not the Science leading the Government. Not surprising as there are only a handful scientifically literate Members of Parliament amongst a sea of Public School boys and girls who did arts based Politics and Economics Degrees –  no wonder we’re in this mess. They aren’t fit for the job.

Here is the tweeting dialogue of the twittering

Here is a link to the Spectator’s excellent analysis of Sage Covid-19 Predictions vs REALITY i.e. what Actually Happened. The Government deliberately ignored some scenarios and consistently publish fear inducing scenarios to scare the public into obedience. A fine example of Boris’s not very well hidden Totalitarian tendencies.

No wonder we no longer trust them. Boris speaks with forked tongue.
