A British Supreme Court judge has slammed the UK government as 'control freaks' for attempting to control people's lives under the guise of COVID, and labeled it "morally and constitutionally indefensible" to define what freedoms the public should and shouldn't have.
In an op-ed published Sunday, Lord Sumption noted that the "debate about whether to let us have a family Christmas perfectly sums up what is wrong with this Government's handling" of the crisis.
Sumption wrote that there are "many different answers to the dilemmas of a Covid Christmas", yet the crux of the matter is "whether we should be allowed to make the choice for ourselves, instead of having it imposed on us by law."
"But for the Jacobins of the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) and the control freaks in the Department of Health, theirs is the only answer," Sumption urged.
The British government has posited allowing people to spend 5 days in the company of their relatives over Christmas, but with the caveat that in January they will have to pay back the privilege with more lockdown time, specifically another 25 days.
Lord Sumption, who served as a senior judge on the Supreme Court of the UK between between 2012 and 2018, slammed the Prime Minister Boris Johnson, suggesting he is engaging in "public relations management" rather than leadership.
"Boris Johnson knows that restrictions over Christmas would be deeply unpopular, widely ignored and catastrophic for the retail and hospitality industries," Sumption asserted.
"So he will soon announce their temporary suspension, behaving as if our lives belonged to the state and Christmas was an act of indulgence on his part," the judge added.
Sumption further wrote that "control freaks and the rest of the sackcloth and ashes brigade will demand a payback" afterwards, claiming that some "are already pressing for two, three or even five days of extra lockdown for every day of release over Christmas. "
Sumption proclaimed that the state is exercising an "insistence on coercing the entire population," saying it is "morally and constitutionally indefensible in a country which is not yet a totalitarian state, like China."
"The Government has not earned our trust. Sooner or later, people will take back control of their own lives and do the right thing, whatever Ministers say," he predicted.
Sumption's comments come in the wake of reports that the UK government is planning to issue 'freedom passes' for people who agree to vaccination or twice testing negative for the virus in one week.

Many people are already accustomed to joking that "Coronavirus is so dangerous that you have to be tested to find out you have it."
So let's take a closer look at this test.
How does the RT-PCR test on COVID-19 work?
Most people imagine that PCR tests detect the presence of the entire genome of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and are therefore very accurate. However, nothing is further from the truth.
The new coronavirus contains about 30,000 RNA bases. DNA / RNA bases are indicated by letters and can be as follows:
C (cytosine)
T (thyme)
G (guanine)
A (adenine)
U (uracil)
PCR tests for coronavirus test only about 200 to 300 of these bases, not all 30,000 bases of the entire virus genome. And even those 200 to 300 bases do not represent one complete chain, but several shorter pieces.
The PCR test is then performed and evaluated as follows:
Samples are taken from a person's mouth and nose at sampling points. They'll send them to the lab. There, they use enzymes and other methods to multiply genes in a sample, because they would not be able to capture one gene chain from one or two viruses.
Propagation is done in cycles, and each cycle doubles the number of genes.
Thus, if, for example, there is a genome from one virus in a sample and the test is set to 30 replications of amplification, the amount of the genome sought will increase as follows in each cycle: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,…. 1,073,741,824.
So in the end, the sample will no longer contain the genome of 1 virus, but as if there were just over one billion viruses. And that's the number they can capture and evaluate as a "positive coronavirus test."
At first glance, this might seem like an ideal test, but it is not. This is because errors tend to occur during gene propagation, and the more cycles you perform, the more errors will get there.
And with a certain number of repetitions, there would already be so many errors that each sample would turn out to be positive, even though there is actually no virus there. This is also called "false positive cases".
The number of repetitions is called the number "Cq". So, by simply changing this parameter, it is possible to determine how many tests will be positive (ie false positive). The higher the number of repetitions, the higher the error rate.
Theoretically, they could set it so that each test goes positive. We're not saying they do, but if they want to, the option is there. However, this is not a problem here yet. The problem is what they're actually testing.
What actually tests PCR tests for coronavirus
At the start of the pandemic, Chinese medics took samples from a few sick people in Wuhan and tried to isolate the virus from their lung tissue.
The correct procedure is that the virus should first be purified and isolated. Subsequently, from such a virus purified for all impurities (bacteria, other viruses, human DNA, etc.), the RNA of the new coronavirus was to be sequenced and the PCR assay set up accordingly.
However, this did not happen. They used various abbreviations to determine the SARS-CoV-2 genome. We will not go here now why they did it this way and not in order, because it would be for a separate article.
In any case, there is essentially no standard scientific evidence to support the 4 Koch postulates for the isolation of the causative agent of the infectious disease COVID-19. We have written about this in detail in this article.
But let's put that aside now. Let's take a look at the WHO (World Health Organization) protocol, which determines the gene sequences of the alleged SARS-CoV-2 for PCR Assays:
You can find the protocol on the WHO website (source).

As can be seen from the figure, the protocol contains 9 strands of gene bases that define the PCR test (let's leave that way for now) how they came up with them and that they did not proceed scientifically correctly).
Notice the second string above: CTCCCTTTGTTGTGTTGT
So, now let's look at the page ncbi.nlm.nih.gov, which describes the primary assembly of human chromosome number 8. At the end of the page under "ORIGIN" is the following:
And now compare it…
Yes, dear readers, exactly! Both sequences are identical. What does it mean?
This means that one of the nine gene sequences that define coronavirus PCR assays is identical to part of human chromosome 8.
In summary: PCR tests for coronavirus include human genes! Interesting, isn't it?
Conclusion
So now you know what PCR tests for the alleged new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 are testing.
If tests in addition to the gene sequences of the virus (and only God knows if they are really virus sequences) also focus on human gene sequences, then essentially any person can have a positive result for such a test.
Now the question will surely come to your mind, so why don't all people test positive? In Slovakia until about July, about 1% of the tests were positive, now with the growing "cases of COVID-19" it is 2 to 4%.
Why not 100% if those tests also focus on human genes?
Do you remember the aforementioned number of repetitions (Cq)? If the number of repetitions is too low, then all tests are negative, because the number of gene chains is smaller there than the mechanism of the test can capture. When there are too many repetitions, all tests are (false) positive.
This range of ideal Cq repeats is from 20 to 35 (this may vary slightly for different PCR assays).
If the human gene were not there and someone wanted to artificially increase the number of "positive cases", they would have to increase the Cq number above this range, for example to Cq = 40. However, this would be suspicious. However, if they include the human gene there, the tests will start to show "positivity" even in the normal range of those Cq 20 to 35 repetitions of propagation, which does not arouse any suspicion.
To capture that human sequence of genes on chromosome 8, a number of repeats are required within the Cq interval of 20 to 35, for example, 30.
They can set the test to a Cq of 24, which is less than the required 30, but some of the tests, say 1%, will already catch on. Or set it to the number 25, the test will start to show 2% positive, at Cq 26 it will be 4%, etc. At Cq = 30, this would already be 100% positive, because all samples, of course, will contain human chromosome # 8.
Do you see how beautifully these tests can be handled?
So our question:
Are PCR tests for coronavirus reliable or someone in the background manipulates the numbers of "infected", which then leads to pandemic restrictions around the world in the form of lockdowns, drapes, social distance, contact tracing, school and shop closures, quarantine and all that hysteria. around it?
This, of course, is only our speculation. In the introduction and core of the article, we presented the facts. In the end, we then stated our hypotheses. Let each of you make your own opinion.
Comment: Hear! Hear! We were beginning to worry that the anti-lockdown demonstrators of the UK were yelling into the proverbial wind. Good on Lord Sumption for making his (and their) position known and heard. And may many more continue to courageously step up and speak out.
