Some astonishing and disgraceful revelations here about a man whose misleading claims on Covid-19 have formed the backbone of the "sceptic" case.
I keep seeing this pattern: people who make false claims in one field have a tendency to make false claims in others. https://twitter.com/zelo_street/status/1357436064529530880

There also appears to be a common coincidence between downplaying the dangers of Covid-19 and holding a set of far-right beliefs.

Yeadon now claims that he "didn't write" one of these tweets, that appeared on his account. He hasn't explained who did, how it got there, or why it closely resembles a large number of other tweets, with similar claims from his account. https://twitter.com/keryn_1/status/1357055566338809857

Astonishingly, however, his followers have simply accepted his claim that one of these offensive tweets was somehow planted in his account, even while other, very similar claims, published under his name over a period of months, remained undeleted until they were exposed.

Julia Hartley-Brewer is among those who has chosen to believe him. Yet she calls herself (checks notes) a "sceptic". https://twitter.com/miffythegamer/status/1357589595655929857

Best to shoot the messengers and keep believing.

They're coming in thick and fast now, lots of tweets on these lines being found in @MichaelYeadon3's account, several of which, like this, remain undeleted. Are we really to believe that they were somehow planted by someone else, then left up by him?

Please remember: this is the man whose claims are central to the case made by those who call themselves "Lockdown Sceptics" or "Covid sceptics". His claims about the pandemic are equally unfounded and even more dangerous. https://fullfact.org/health/can-we-believe-lockdown-sceptics/

Michael Yeadon's superfans, like @JuliaHB1, tried to tough it out, by denying that he'd posted multiple racist and revolting tweets. He now appears to have taken a different approach.

Yeadon now claims that the racist tweets published over the course of many months by his account were faked.
1. How?
2. How were they inserted, in real time, into active conversations?
3. Why did he fail to notice them?
4. Why didn't he change his password/take other measures?

Some of his acolytes now claim that Michael Yeadon's account was not Michael Yeadon's account.
So was the Michael Yeadon they were following and retweeting an impostor?
What about the MY who now says MY was hacked and has deleted MY's account?
And what happened to the real one??

There seems to be some kind of threshold people cross, after which they will believe anything. Literally anything.
