Ignore the trolls, they are everywhere. David Kurten was brilliant today, he was UKIP but has moved on.

Oh but I love that I listen to you in the evening and then again on TNT. I also found Maggie amazing and an inspiration on how we can resist and say no to tyranny x

I’m so glad that you can have both now! Maggie was incredible. So many great women in this resistance movement, including in this group. I’m constantly astounded by the strength and humour here. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I haven't listened to your TNT show as yet but will definitely be tuning in as you speak my kind of language. I have the misfortune to be in the 'belly of the beast' (in jabbed) and let me tell you the covid hysteria continues unabated. God knows I've tried to explain the nonsense that is PCR testing but I'm wasting my breath. When a 'covid' patient is brought to the department where I work I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the rank stupidity displayed by my colleagues. They even mop the frigging floor when the patient's left the room. Assuming for one moment there actually was a killer virus on the rampage would something so small literally settle on the floor. I put this to our infection control link-nurse and she just looked at me like I was nuts. In this environment I spend my working day, no wonder I can't get the Mantovani tune 'Chamaine' out of my head.

Brilliant pod as always, so lovely to have you back, and brilliant TNT show again this morning. You and Sonia are fabulous to listen to. I, like you, am up at the crack to ensure I am washed & dressed by 7am so I don't miss a thing.

Had you on in the car doing the school run this morning and my teenage son said "is that the sweary lady you listen to of an evening, she's (then he asked if he could swear) bloody brilliant on the radio too!".

If you ever come to Herefordshire to do a gig we would dearly love to meet you x

This morning was hilarious, you were so much more relaxed (and to be fair for a first show yesterday nerves didn't show at all). I was howling - what a great way to get the endorphines kicking in. Loved the papers - Monday would be good to review what was covered over the weekend.? It was a mini magazine programme in one - I think that's pretty clever in a 60 minute programme which will be 40-45 minute content. It was a good balance. You're a natural raconteur, the "new" audience loved you so enjoy and let it grow at its own pace. Please don't swear tomorrow ... well not too often - oh sod, swear away!!! Where are my emojis??

I preached (like a number of others) during the lockdowns, that family, community, work and worship were pre-political; they were not things bestowed on us or taken away by governments or science. Genesis 1-2 shows that but so does natural law. Denying them destroyed the age old resources we have always leaned on to get through crises.

But ‘experimental science’ now sits in the role of prophet (announcing the terms of truth), priest (setting the terms of self understanding, human flourishing and moral engagement with God, self and world), and king (directing the details of how close we stand and how we breath). This is science as religion, theology and metaphysics.

Graphs to guide us are the scriptures of a new religion. The new priests preach from them and proclaim magical thinking (scotch eggs in a pub save granny) and direct new rituals and religious dress (jabs and masks). Like all cults there are deaths among the followers which are reframed to support the religion.

You were on fire this evening Abi! As you say, the fight is not graph against graph. That’s to accept the new religion’s theology and metaphysics, to give away ground before we start. Graphs don’t do morality for us. They don’t instruct us how to live. They can only show us the extent of,what we already know by natural law and God’s word, to be good or evil. One death from forced medical intervention is evil. We don’t need a graph for that. Graphs can tell us how many times the crime is being committed.

Bridgen is in the cult as a dissident, but he’s waiting for a more convincing priest and preacher with a new graph, a new revelation. He’s like a Mormon waiting for the new teaching from the next prophet. He should have been saying from the beginning that all of the measures should have been morally unthinkable, never admitted to the table.

Rant over. (But your rants are infectious!)

Jonny.

Fartley-Spewer was at it again this morning, glossing over the MRNA injections she pushed and moving on to pushing MMR jabs, before her usual plug for the Zelensky show. Posh, philosophy, politics and economics - she's got everything required by the, increasingly useless TalkTv management. I'm now going to look up TNT Radio ready for your morning show. I'm truly fed up with upper middle class, left leaning, reality less presenters desperately pushing themselves as saviours of free speech - utter bollocks.

Abi! I’ve been listening since you started. You are amazing and I’m growling with laughter.

Love ya!

Keep up the fantastic work.

Happy New Year. I'm so glad you are back Abi with lots of great energy. I will be sure to listen to TNT too. The thing with Andrew Bridgen is that as far as I know he displays no remorse at all and there is no apology for getting it wrong. The same as Malhotra. It is just "the science changed" narrative. I was also shocked at Brett Weinstein and his "amaaaaaazing MRNA technology " line. I never liked the name of his podcast - Dark Horse but now I think how appropriate! ( By the way you do pronounce my name correctly ) Lots of love Birgitte
