Road calming devices cause damage to cars, make cars use more fuel and increase pollution. But they will be useful for marking boundaries in the creation of 20-minute cities.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why new cars being sold in Britain will contain EU control devices to make sure drivers never break the speed limit.  Another reason for such devices is EU centralised control.  Brexit should have been a break for freedom but the British people have been betrayed.

These are just a few of Dr. Vernon Colemans’ ‘Passing Observations 255’.

By Dr. Vernon Coleman

1. Isn’t it strange that the same people who complain about the presence of sewage in our rivers are the same people who support more immigration? They don’t seem to realise that the sewage problem is caused by our reliance on Victorian sewage systems which cannot cope with a massive population increase.

2. Many of those who deny the existence of germs also claim that gravity doesn’t exist – something even dafter than claiming that the world is flat, which they also do. (Isn’t it odd, by the way, that although truth-tellers were banned from YouTube for telling the truth, YouTube allows idiots flogging the bizarre notion that there are no germs to stay on the channel? The bizarre claim that there are no germs will, if it is ever widely accepted, kill millions of people.)

3. The question you were too embarrassed to ask (because you were worried it sounded stupid) is probably the question you should have asked.

4. Don’t ever drink water that comes out of a tap. If you want to know why, take a look at my book `Superbody’ – available through the bookshop at http://www.vernoncoleman.com

5. Mobile phones should be changed every 25 years this means that mine will be due to be replaced in another four years’ time. (But I intend to keep it a little longer. I’m very fond of 2G.)

6. Hospital gowns open at the back to make patients feel uncomfortable so that they are less likely to question, protest or complain.

7. There would be plenty of dentists if they abandoned largely unnecessary (but immensely profitable) six-monthly check-ups.

8. The idea that we are all equal is frankly ludicrous. If the consciously self-righteous continue to argue that equality is a goal we must strive for and achieve, disappointment will be endemic. The truth, sadly for them, is that no two people on earth are equal and that’s that. Vive la difference.

9. The incidence of diabetes is rocketing. This was bound to happen because diabetes is inherited. But the disease is exploding and naturally, no one in the medical establishment thinks of blaming the covid-19 vaccine.

10. Road calming devices cause damage to cars and make cars use more fuel. Oh, and they increase pollution levels. But they will be useful for marking boundaries in the creation of 20-minute cities.

11. Ten million people in the UK now take statins. Take a look at my book ‘How to stop your doctor killing you’ (first published in 1996) for details of the horrendous side effects. The relevant chapter is entitled `Lowering Blood Cholesterol’. ‘How to stop your doctor killing you’ is available through the bookshop on http://www.vernoncoleman.com

12. Four years ago, I warned that if the covid-19 vaccine was given carelessly and injected straight into a blood vessel, it would be more likely to cause serious health problems. Sadly, I was right. The untrained bozos who gave the vaccine didn’t pull back the plunger to make sure that the needle tip wasn’t in a vein.

13. Tethers, holding plastic caps to plastic drink bottles, are a massive hygiene problem. They are, of course, an EU-sanctioned invention. Oh, and although Britain left the EU, new cars being sold in Britain will contain EU control devices to make sure that they never break the speed limit. Brexit should have been a break for freedom. But politicians betrayed the people. And the betrayal will now get worse. To find the full, amazing history of the EU please read `The Shocking History of the EU’ which can be bought via the bookshop on http://www.vernoncoleman.com

14. Politicians have admitted that the “defence” of Ukraine is all about money. The USA wants to control the vast commodity wealth of Ukraine. (You will remember that, among other reasons, the USA invaded Afghanistan to steal the rare earth minerals). And the USA wants to take control of Russia’s commodity riches too. As usual, every war is about money. (If you haven’t seen it watch my video explaining why Israel invaded Gaza.)

15. More than a million people in the UK have taken out mortgages which they will have to continue to pay even after they are retired and struggling to live on ever-shrinking pensions.

16. China has stockpiled £135 billion worth of gold and its gold reserves now total 2,262 tonnes. (Sadly, Gordon Brown sold a large chunk of Britain’s gold at rock-bottom prices.) Maybe the attack on Taiwan is getting closer.

17. One-third of construction companies in Scotland think they will stop trading in 2025 because of political instability and high taxes. The situation in England is just as bad. Around half of construction companies in the midlands and northeast fear they won’t get through 2025.

18. The tax people in the UK (HMRC) have more powers than the police. They can search you and your premises, they can seize evidence and they can arrest you. Despite these massive powers, the Association of Revenue and Customs (the union representing senior tax officials in the UK) says that poor customer service to taxpayers is costing around £1 billion a year.

19. Remember: one per cent of the population in the UK now pays 29% of the tax. The new government will be doing its best to force that 1% out of the country. So, the UK’s tax take will drop by 29%. Is there just one politician in the UK bright enough to see what this will mean?
