Celebrity Paedogeddon and old men yelling at clouds

On 1 June 2021, Turner clashed with Dermot O'Leary on This Morning over the issue of COVID-19 vaccines, when she said that it was not effective and urged younger people to refuse the vaccine when offered it. She went on to claim: "It does not stop you catching or passing on the virus." Following this, she was banned from appearing on the programme.[8][9] Controversy continued later on Jeremy Vine, which caused Ofcom to receive hundreds of complaints. She later shared a video of herself crying, claiming she had been "ambushed."[10] On November of the same year she appeared again on the Jeremy Vine programme, in which she clashed with Owen Jones when she compared Austria's lockdown rules for the non-vaccinated to Apartheid.[11]

On 7 February 2022, in the hours after Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer was encircled by protesters[12] yelling "traitor", with references to Jimmy Savile, amongst other things, Turner tweeted to suggest that Sir Keir Starmer was complicit in the incident and that the event was staged.[13] Turner tweeted: "I'm not at all convinced this is a genuine 'ambush.' It perfectly casts Johnson as a Trumpian agitator. (I'm not condoning his Savile comment. It was stupid). But Starmer does not look scared. Yelling about 'Freemasons' was brainstormed in a board room! Why walk so far?! Staged."

In July 2022, amidst the 2022 United Kingdom heat wave, in a conversation with BBC's meteorologist John Hammond, she said "I want us to be happy about the weather, and I don’t know if something has happened to meteorologists to make you all a little bit fatalistic and harbingers of doom, but broadcasters – particularly on the BBC – every time I’ve turned on, anyone is talking about the weather and they’re saying there’s going to be tons of fatalities, but haven't we always had hot weather, John?" in a moment that was compared to the film Don't Look Up.[14][15] On her Twitter, she has expressed her opinion about the extreme heat warnings, calling them "weather-fear porn"[16] and "climate lockdown."[17]

In July 2023, a leading Jewish group criticised Turner for spreading a "dangerous conspiracy theory" after she tweeted that the Covid virus appeared to have been bioengineered to be less dangerous to some Jewish people.
