not sure what it proves other than people who advocate nutcase causes can also be cynical and corrupt, or perhaps that there's more than one prick called piers

This is a normal post I’m really irritated by the shit AZ are getting.
They are selling their vaccines at cost price. Yes, they had significant government funding for the RND, but that funding did not cover the entire cost of the RND, so AZ made a big loss on that. At cost price they are making zero profit, effectively working for nothing to roll out the biggest and quickest vaccine roll out in history, and all they are getting is ‘big pharma is evil’. Meanwhile Pfizer are selling their vaccines with a tidy little margin, openly profiteering from the pandemic. We all clapped for the NHS, but no one will give AZ so much as a pat on the back. If Johnson gave the CEO a knighthood he would be severely criticised for giving a Tory crony from evil big pharma a gong. International leaders such as Macron, Merkel (who claims to be an actual scientist) and von der Leyen lied and cast aspersions as to the efficacy of the AZ vaccine. They’ve never retracted those lies, never mind apologised for them.

Rant over.

This is a normal post It was sickening to read that AZ's share price plummetted
when they announced the cost price thing.

This is a normal post No kind deed goes unpunished.
Clap for carers was a gesture to improve herd cohesion, while not having to improve conditions for actual carers.

I was hoping the magician would be doing something more elaborate like a card trick or something.

This is a normal post yeah, it was a bit contrived and distracted from the point of the video, imho
And even though I think JC's brother is a dick with counterfactual views, I reckon you could corrupt a lot of people waving 10k of cash in front of their face. Maybe he had the bookies on his back, who knows what his circumstances are? I don't like entrapment in general, enticing someone to commit a crime just to catch them committing a crime. It'd be different if it was a company, copper or elected official already suspected of it
