offsite link Assisted Suicide Will Poison the British Culture of Care Mon Sep 07, 2026 19:00 | Simon Cavadino
Old people in care homes regularly say "Oh I just want to die", but they almost never mean it, says Simon Cavadino. The danger of assisted suicide is staff will start to treat them like they do.

Labour are odds-on to hold Holborn and St Pancras ? but the Greens at 2/1 look tempting, particularly if it?s held after the Budget, and a four-way split isn?t out of the question, says Mark Littlewood.

Greenland's icecap is doing just fine, says Paul Homewood. It's still much larger than it has been for most of the last 10,000 years and if it is shrinking at all, it is doing so no faster than a century ago.

Open Letter to Irish Medical Times - Blocking the use of Ivermectin

category national | public consultation / irish social forum | news report author Tuesday August 10, 2021 11:07author by dr Report this post to the editors

This open Letter was published in the Irish Medical Times and was addressed ro the minister for health and asks why the highly effective drug Ivermectin has been blocked

Open letter published in the IRISH MEDICAL TIMES this is a big deal Letter: Open letter to the Minister for Health

Blocking of use of Ivermectin

Dear Mr Donnelly;
It is now quite clear that there is a worrying and somewhat sinister attempt to block the use of Ivermectin in the prevention or treatment of SARS-CoV2 infections. This despite numerous randomised control trials,observational trials and case studies. The arguments against use include lack of evidence, clearly this isn’t the case and the safety profile. This drug is 50 years old and has resulted in approximately 20 deaths in that time. Aspirin has killed multiples of this number.

Given that much of the evidence has been in existence for at least one year, and more has subsequently emerged, I would assert that the writers of the ICGP guidelines (April 2020) and the subsequent HIQA guidelines (January 2021) are guilty of the crime of wilful blindness as defined: “The doctrine of willful blindness imputes knowledge to an accused whose suspicion is aroused to the point where he or she sees the need for further inquiries, but deliberately chooses not to make those inquiries.”

As are those who were party to sanctioning such documents. The instructions in these documents advised GPs to basically do nothing in the initial phases, except perhaps have a PCR test to confirm infection, most were not seen by their family doctors, and if they worsened were sent to hospital.

Sadly, many of those in nursing homes were not offered a hospital admission, instead were given oxygen, morphine and midazolam whilst awaiting death.

In all these cases a window of opportunity in the early stages of this condition was lost.

No doubt some of these people would have worsened and died anyway but we will never know how many could have survived because, in the main, GPs did nothing.

Yours Sincerely,
Dr William Ralph, MICGP,
The Ballagh HC,
Enniscorthy,
Wexford.
