SCANDAL RE COVID-19 ALLEGED CAUSE OF DEATH

Helena Windsor - UKIP Health Spokeswoman • 22 July 2020

UKIP's Latest Press Release on COVID-19 deaths, Statistics and Mismanagement.

Are we being misled with the number of Covid-19 deaths being inflated?

Last week, UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock ordered an urgent review of the daily COVID-19 death statistics produced by Public Health England, after it emerged that they included people who had previously tested positive for COVID-19 in their statistics for England's COVID-19 deaths outside hospital, but without any checks on the actual cause of death.

Apparently, the PHE cross-checks the latest notifications of deaths against the NHS COVID-19 test database for those who tested positive – whenever that test was performed; so, anyone who has ever tested positive is likely to be recorded in the list of COVID-19 deaths if they die at any later date. Perhaps even if they were run over by a car? If this is true, it will result in an inflation of the deaths estimate and a skewing of data towards a more elderly population and towards deaths in care homes, as, naturally, this is the demographic with the highest mortality rate, i.e., most likely to die from any cause.

Again, if true, this unbelievably unprofessional methodology - attributable to either incompetence or a deliberate mismanagement of data, was still being defended by PHE in Monday's press. Additionally, relatives of hospital patients dying of old age but testing negative for COVID-19, are still claiming that COVID-19 is being recorded on their loved one's death certificate – with no post mortem, of course, these stopped months ago.

Such absurd methodology will ensure that, per misleading statistics, COVID-19 deaths will continue occurring indefinitely or at least for decades!

As the world learns more about the damage caused by SARS-nCoV-2, the new virus responsible for COVID-19, it is clear that some former COVID-19 patients may have their lives shortened by organ damage. Significantly, a post-COVID-19 follow-up study has been initiated, but the flawed PHE method will offer no insights whatsoever into this phenomenon. It takes a proper investigation and autopsy at the time of death. This is the only way pathologists learn about the in vivo effects of a new disease. So far, we have been reliant on information gleaned from post-mortem studies conducted in other countries.


Meanwhile, Cancer Research UK has flagged up the continuing scandal of the huge backlog in diagnostic tests for cancer, together with the cancelled surgeries and clinical trials. It seems the NHS was protected from a catastrophic failure in handling COVID-19 at the cost of a catastrophic failure in provision for cancer patients.

UKIP urges the Health Secretary to make clearing the cancer treatment backlog a priority and initiate a full review into the actions of the PHE, the NHS and the Government, during this pandemic.

Jeffrey Titford 24.10.1933 – 09.09.2024 Jeffrey Titford, the former Leader of the UK Independence Party and two term MEP for the East of England, has passed away, after suffering from cancer. His family announced his death on 10 th September, aged 90. Jeffrey was one of the fathers of Brexit, coming to the fore in national and international politics at a time when leaving the EU was considered unthinkable and long before it became official Conservative Party policy. A visionary and a democrat, who did not believe that EU membership provided a viable future for Britain as an independent, self-governing nation, Jeffrey Titford was elected to the European Parliament at the 1999 European Parliamentary Elections, aged 63. He was one of three UK Independence Party MEPs elected, which sent shock waves through the political world. He became Leader of the Party in 2000 and served for three years bringing stability and respectability to its campaigns. During this period, he made seventy speeches a year, travelling all over the country. He also served as interim Leader from September to November 2010, following the resignation of Lord Pearson of Rannoch, while the election of a new Leader was held. During his time in the European Parliament, he made dozens of speeches in Plenary session severely criticising the EU and particularly the level of fraud in its finances. He also extensively lobbied the European Commission and the Government in Westminster on behalf of the British fishing and farming industries. He led several delegations of fishermen to see UK Agriculture Ministers in Westminster and also took a delegation to meet the European Commissioner for Fishing in Brussels. He wrote monthly columns for the East Anglian Daily Times, the Hertfordshire Mercury and Farmers Guide and made many appearances on regional television. He also made a guest appearance on Breakfast with Frost. Jeffrey Titford’s political career began in 1970, when he became a Councillor on the Clacton Urban District Council. He ended his association with the Conservative Party in 1992, in protest over Prime Minister John Major’s signing of the Maastricht Treaty. He joined Sir James Goldsmith’s Referendum Party and, in a sign of things to come, stood in the General Election of 1997 in Harwich when he was the Party’s most successful candidate, securing almost 10 per cent of the vote and, in the process, unseating the sitting Member of Parliament. Following the death of Sir James Goldsmith, Jeffrey was invited to join the UK Independence Party (UKIP), where he established a branch in Clacton and a regional committee, which led to his successful campaign in the European Elections in 1999. He paved the way for Nigel Farage’s subsequent success in Clacton at the 2024 General Election. He was re-elected to the European Parliament in 2004, with a greatly increased share of the vote and UKIP also returned a second MEP. He retired from European Politics in 2009 and was made an Honorary Patron of the Party in 2006 and became President for Life in 2011. Life before politics Following National Service in the RAF, Jeffrey joined the family’s funeral directing business in 1956, where he had a 35 year career, during which he served for 12 years on the National Association of Funeral Director’s (NAFD) National Executive and rose to National President in 1975-76. He was instrumental in developing an official code of practice for the funeral profession, at the request of the Office of Fair Trading. He also successfully campaigned for funeral directors to have the right to sell a package funeral and carried out the first review of the practice manual for funeral directing, which led to the creation of a formal qualification for funeral directors, recognised by the NAFD. He sold the company in February 1989 and retired from the profession. An enthusiastic Rotarian, Jeffrey served as President of the Clacton and later Frinton Rotary Clubs. He also belonged to the Clacton Operatic and Clacton Dramatic Societies, taking lead roles in both companies. However, his most successful hobby was rally driving. He was a leading light in the Clacton Motor Club in the early seventies for whom he was the regional rally champion for six consecutive years. Jeffrey Titford was a devoted family man and is survived by his wife Margaret, one son, three daughters, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
