U.K. Health Minister Wrote in Dec 2020 Text: “When Do We Deploy the New Variant?”

“When do we deploy the new variant?”

So much meaning is wrapped up in those 7 words, written in a WhatsApp message by Matt Hancock, who at the time was the Health Minister in the United Kingdom.

“When do we deploy the new variant?” By this, I assume they do not mean actually releasing a new strain of the virus into the wild, an act which I hope is beyond even the most depraved politician or bureaucrat to contemplate.

Rather, they are talking about how to “frighten the pants of [sic] everyone with the new strain.”

Clearly, the new strain itself was not what worried them–they after all are contemplating the timing of when to “deploy” it for maximum fear value–but rather the public’s waning fear of COVID. When, they are wondering, would it be strategically in their best interest to ramp up the fear value for maximum political benefit?

Saving lives wasn’t the point: enforcing compliance with diktats was.

COVID the virus may not have been deployed by any government, but COVID the “emergency” was clearly deployed as a massive plot to strip people of their freedoms and manipulate the public into compliance with absurd demands.

A vast trove of WhatsApp messages was leaked to the British press, and The Telegraph is combing through the 100,000 messages that were never meant to see the light of day. If you think they will confirm some of your worst fears about how the public has been manipulated over the past several years, you are dead right.

Matt Hancock wanted to “deploy” a new Covid variant to “frighten the pants off” the public and ensure they complied with lockdown, leaked messages seen by The Telegraph have revealed.

The Lockdown Files – more than 100,000 WhatsApp messages sent between ministers, officials and others – show how the Government used scare tactics to force compliance and push through lockdowns.

In another message Simon Case, the Cabinet Secretary, said that “the fear/ guilt factor” was “vital” in “ramping up the messaging” during the third national lockdown in Jan 2021.

The previous month, Matt Hancock, the then health secretary, appeared to suggest in one message that a new strain of Covid that had recently emerged would be helpful in preparing the ground for the looming lockdown, by scaring people into compliance.

In a WhatsApp conversation on Dec 13, obtained by The Telegraph, Damon Poole – one of Mr Hancock’s media advisers – informed his boss that Tory MPs were “furious already about the prospect” of stricter Covid measures and suggested “we can roll pitch with the new strain”.

The comment suggested that they believed the strain could be helpful in preparing the ground for a future lockdown and tougher restrictions in the run-up to Christmas 2020.

Mr Hancock then replied: “We frighten the pants off everyone with the new strain.”

Mr Poole agreed, saying: “Yep that’s what will get proper bahviour [sic] change.”

The most generous interpretation of the messages–one that I do not share because I don’t buy that government officials had pure hearts and good motives–is that government officials lied to us for our own good. Knowing that human beings become numb to fear after a while and let down their guard, these officials massaged their messaging to get us to do the right thing.

As I said, I think that is way too generous, but even were it true it is unforgivable.

The consequences that stem from the lie have been dire. Millions of parents figured out long ago that they have been lied to and now won’t even get their children vaccinated from preventable diseases; trust in expert advice has plummeted for very good reasons; social tensions have skyrocketed, as millions who were right about everything were demonized by the government and their peers, mental health challenges have skyrocketed among children; lives and livelihoods were destroyed…the list is endless.

For what purpose? The costs have been astronomical and will continue for decades, and none of the measures taken stopped COVID because they didn’t have the means to do so.

The purpose was clearly not the public good, since the costs to the public have been devastating. But there was a massive transfer of wealth and power from the middle class to the wealthy and, in the United States, a transfer of power from the Right to the Left that likely would never have happened without COVID.

Could that be the purpose? Yes. Yes it was. COVID was a political and economic weapon.

The corruption is staggering, and chances are very good that almost nobody will pay any price for it. The Elite have circled the wagons, the MSM is resolute in suppressing dissent, and you can rest assured that everybody involved in the destruction wrought upon our society will come out smelling like a rose.
