On Newsnight last night, Toby Young claimed that "No one is denying that we're in the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic - or at least no one who contributes to LockdownSceptics"
Toby was lying.

Toby was lying.
THREAD:
1/ On September 26th, LockdownSceptics published a seemingly uncredited article that declared that "The pandemic has ended" and that a second wave is "unlikely to happen"
2/ On November 4th, LockdownSceptics published an open letter by @MichaelYeadon3 in which he declared himself "certain that the pandemic is over"
3/ On November 26th, LockdownSceptics published a "briefing sheet for MPs", again authored by Dr Yeadon. It declared that were not in fact in a deadly pandemic.
4/ Just three days ago, LockdownSceptics published an article in which the author declared that "this pandemic is over biologically". Toby Young declared the article to be "so good I'm publishing it in full".
5/ Just two days ago, LockdownSceptics published an article by @ClareCraigPath, @RealJoelSmalley and @JenglerUK which declared that the "epidemic phase of the COVID-19 outbreak was [...] over in Spring"

I could go on, but I don't think I need to. LockdownSceptics has been publishing the work of people who "deny that we're in the midst of a deadly pandemic" for months, and history won't look kindly on him or his contributors for it.
