- 0:08Good afternoon. It's Friday, the third of May twenty twenty four, just
- 0:11after one o'clock. Welcome to UK Colin News. I'm your host Puck Romson
- 0:14joining me in the studio today, Ben Rubin, Welcome to the program.
- 0:16Ben and Debbie Evans by remote access as usual. But we're going to start
- 0:21very quickly, just a very brief comment on the election. We'll just use
- 0:25the BBC to put the statistics up. Those were the statistics that were available
- 0:29just before we came on air. And well the Liberal Party claiming that they've
- 0:34won all kinds of landslide victories. Well the Tories may have lost one hundred
- 0:38and twenty six council seats according to this particular statistic, but Liberal only one
- 0:43fifty two. I think it's significant. Ben, at thirty nine. Independence
- 0:48have won thirty nine new seats. I think that's pretty that's pretty good,
- 0:53and we would like to encourage more Independence to stand whenever they finally or if
- 0:58they stand, call the general election. Anyway, I don't think there's any
- 1:02more to be said about that at this stage. If there any results for
- 1:04the Police and Crime Commissioners, no doubt will report that on Monday. But
- 1:08those haven't been They have not been announced just yet. But look, I
- 1:12wanted to comment on this article from the Daily Meal. The headline here is
- 1:18Astroseneka has admitted its COVID vaccine caused the condition that killed Gareth's BBC presenter wife.
- 1:23So why won't he and their son see a penny in compensation? And
- 1:27well, first of all, it's being described as an exclusive, and because
- 1:32as exclusive, maybe they've hidden it behind the Mail Plus paywall. But nonetheless,
- 1:37this is about a guy called Gareth Eve and his wife who was a
- 1:40BBC journalist called Lisa Shaw. Lisa passed away following vaccination with astrosenica. But
- 1:48you know, this article, I have to say, is an absolute disgrace
- 1:51of Daily Meal, is an absolute disgrace. The entire manstream media is an
- 1:53absolute disgrace. And the thing is why do I say this? Well for
- 1:57two reasons. First of all, they've covered this story, but they haven't
- 2:01covered in any detail at all the thousands of injured or dead as a result
- 2:06of the jabs. But then there's this little detail from further on down the
- 2:09article. It says, while others, including one man who died in the
- 2:13same hospital ward as Lisa in the same week from exactly the same reactions to
- 2:17the vaccine could be in line for compensation payments if they went in quote Gareth
- 2:22Eve will not and they quote him as saying it's because of a technicality,
- 2:24a loophole. I'm devastated. I feel completely abandoned all over again. It
- 2:30actually takes me back to just after Lisa died, when I was in that
- 2:31state of feeling utterly alone, thinking well, what now. And so the
- 2:37basis of this is that he has been excluded from this class action because it
- 2:42has turned out that following or after the seventh of April twenty twenty one,
- 2:46and with the approval of the MHRA, a warning about the risk of thrombodic
- 2:51complications was added by Astroseneka to the patient information leaflet, or at least was
- 2:57sent to healthcare professionals. And I think it is absolutely disgraceful now that the
- 3:02Meal is attempting to raise money through their Meal plus paywall by highlighting this fact
- 3:10when it was the Meal in particular, along with all the other mainstream media
- 3:17organizations that were denying the possibility of these complications at the time and since and
- 3:23Debbie So I find this really cynical, actually, this entire article. I'm
- 3:30pleased that Gareth, even his issue is being given some publicity, but nonetheless,
- 3:36lots of other vaccine injured not getting any publicity. And the Meal has
- 3:42some questions answer, but it's the fact that it did not highlight these complications
- 3:46at the time. Yeah, one hundred percent, Good afternoon everyone. I
- 3:51mean, the mail has got a lot of questions to ask, but so
- 3:53has everybody else, got a lot of questions to ask. And let's just
- 3:55remember Sa Pascal Sorrio AstraZeneca, Errakata, astrakata. But also patients didn't get
- 4:03an information leaflet to patient information leaflet prior to the injection. Nobody knew the
- 4:09adverse reactions. Even the doctors didn't know. If you remember, I received
- 4:14a letter from the Royal College of General Practitioners who said that doctors neither knew
- 4:17the ingredients of the injection or the serious adverse reactions or any adverse reactions.
- 4:24So informed consent was never an option. It was never on the table,
- 4:29and nobody was highlighting that at the time. It was an implied consent.
- 4:33But if you always want to go back and look at this legal this legal
- 4:38issue, a little bit more. We did a very good interview with Peter
- 4:41Todd who has been acting. He's a solicitor and he's been acting on behalf
- 4:46of the vaccine injured. The interviews called You're Not Alone, and it's on
- 4:49the column and we screened it in March twenty twenty three, and I'm going
- 4:54to try and get in contact with Peter to see if we can get an
- 4:57update on this. But clearly there is a long long way to go,
- 5:01as we are going to come and see. We're going to wait and see
- 5:04my next segment which actually brings me on to the MHRA, and we will
- 5:10talk a bit more about Astrosenaka. So the MHRA board meetings coming up,
- 5:13folks, Please could you all page in and sign up on there? I
- 5:18think it's what the twenty first of May, between ten and twelve thirty.
- 5:23We've only got a couple more meetings before Dame June Rain departs, so we
- 5:28really want to get as many people as possible. Please register, and also
- 5:32really now going back to AstraZeneca and tandeming in with your story Mike on AstraZeneca,
- 5:39and there are two sides as we know to the vaccine miracle and Jamie
- 5:43Scott, who was fit and healthy before the JAB is now not so fit
- 5:48and healthy, and he is actually suing Astroseneca. So there are some of
- 5:53them that are still taking legal action. But can I just remind you,
- 5:58Matt Hancock, did he say about the astrosenica vaccine. The Oxford Astrosenca JAB
- 6:04is safe. We know that over ten million people have had it in this
- 6:11country and that's what the British regulator says, but also the World Health Organization
- 6:17and even the European regulator. Now, we keep the effects of these vaccines
- 6:24under review all the time, and we know that the Oxford astroseneca vaccine is
- 6:29saving lives in the UK right now. So if you get the call,
- 6:33get the job, really, Matt, really, thank you to Kenny for
- 6:42finding me that clip. And finally on this little segment, Victoria Atkins,
- 6:46it would appear didn't get the memo. Her aides let her down. She
- 6:50didn't snub the COVID vaccine victims, she just didn't get the memo. Well
- 6:56you know, now, Victoria, so when's the meeting? Do let us
- 7:00know? Yes, that's a very good question. So well what can we
- 7:04say about that? We'll have much more on this in coming days and weeks.
- 7:09I'm sure, Ben, Let's move on to My life. I say
- 7:14absolutely yes. Yet again we're talking about my life. My say united.
- 7:18We stand, Divided, we fall is the phrase, and we are more
- 7:23divided now than any other time in our nation's history. We're pitting the young
- 7:28against the old. We're pitting women against men, religion against religion, race
- 7:31against race. And this is entirely by a design who benefits tyrannical powers,
- 7:39who sits at the center of this stuff well, organizations like My Life might
- 7:43say, and the entities that surround it. This UK Youth Charity, ostensibly
- 7:49a non partisan effort to get young people involved in politics, is extraordinarily well
- 7:56linked into the senior levels of the establishment. It has relationship with the Tony
- 8:00Blair Institute, with Sadi Kahan, the US embass six One Young World,
- 8:05another youth charity which is whose patron is Megan Markle NCS, the National Citizen
- 8:15Service, whose chairman is Lord Cameron, our Foreign Secretary. UK Youth whose
- 8:22patron is Princess an iron Co. Full Generations which is the Rothchild family based
- 8:26out of Paris. Tortoise Media, which is a new media organization which works
- 8:31directly with the Rothchild family in my Life, My say sits in the center
- 8:35of all of this. It's run by this gentleman Metti Choban NB. He
- 8:41got his mbe for getting young people into politics. That's sustensibly what this organization
- 8:45is here to do. He's got a board of trustees, as all charities
- 8:48do. I won't go through all of them right now, but the one
- 8:50that's particularly interesting given what we've already been talking about what's going on this week
- 8:54and this year, is this woman Harjit Sahota, who is the head of
- 8:58external world Relations and Stakeholders for Keir Starmer at the UK Labor Party, and
- 9:03according to in her own words, her job is about directing the electoral and
- 9:07targeting strategy for community engagement for the UK twenty twenty four general election. That's
- 9:13what she's there to do. She's trying to get that feeder on the right
- 9:16hand side of the stage into power, which will ultimately mean that the guy
- 9:18on the left hand side of the stage, Tony Blair, will be in
- 9:22power. Because that's ultimately I believe who Starmer is working for. It's not
- 9:26very non partisan, is it. So we spoke about them a couple of
- 9:30weeks ago. We talked about My Life My Say a lot over the past
- 9:33few months. Metti Choban was extremely excited because the charity had done a great
- 9:39job actually of getting people young people signed up to vote on as part of
- 9:43their given X campaign. And we've already reported on this. The reason that
- 9:48it's interesting and I'm bringing it back up today is that we're actually seeing the
- 9:52confluence of two stories. We talked about MLMs a lot, we also talked
- 9:56about Freud Communications Freud's group, and it turns out that those two organizations are
- 10:01working together. This was an announcement made a couple of days ago by Freud's
- 10:05My Life Might Say. A non PARTI is our youth led charity is campaigning
- 10:09to increase voter participation through the given ex campaign with our support, So they
- 10:15are working together. More than one hundred and thirteen thousand young people registered on
- 10:18National Voter Registration Day. So these two things are actually the same thing.
- 10:24And let's remind ourselves what Freuds are up to. Amongst other things, they
- 10:28run Goals House, the diverse community of business and political leaders, activists,
- 10:31ngngos and entrepreneurs focused on delivering the un sustainable Development goals. They've got a
- 10:37big advisory board, and they're not just running Goals House as a client.
- 10:43They are actively and intimately involved in it. So Matthew Freud, you can
- 10:46see in the top right hand side there with the buzzcut and the green accent
- 10:50behind him, he is the chair of Goals House and also a director of
- 10:56the Sustainable Development Goals, so he was actually involved in defining them and running
- 11:00out that entire program. Let's remind ourselves a bit about Goals House. We
- 11:03talked about this a lot, particularly back in January around Davos. This is
- 11:09James Harding, the Tortoise editor, stood in front of a tapestry of Satan.
- 11:13This is the Grayson Perry Walthamstowe tapestry, which we subsequently found out actually
- 11:18hangs in the Freud's office. Yeah, so that's probably owned by Matthew Freud
- 11:22and they take it around with them to go to these meetings. Who else
- 11:26was at Goals House? This was from twenty twenty three. We have Jane
- 11:30Goodall there in the center, who earlier that day had sat on stage and
- 11:33said that we needed to reduce the global population by ninety five percent, and
- 11:37then she went to Goals House and she was hanging out with Brian on the
- 11:41left. There he's not the king, he's a very naughty boy. And
- 11:43the global climates are our gore. Now what are they doing. They are
- 11:48delivering these the un sustainable development goals, or as I like to call them,
- 11:50the unsustainable development goals. You can't be implemented. They don't make any
- 11:54sense. And to show that these two things are linked, not least because
- 11:58of what Freud's announced in the piece that I showed it a couple of slides
- 12:03back, they've actually put the seventeen colors of the Sustainable Development Goals across the
- 12:07top of each of these images, so you can see that they are if
- 12:09that one and the same thing. They are signaling to us that this is
- 12:13SDG related activity. It's all tied together. And who's it focused on.
- 12:20It's all focused on young women. It's absolutely squarely focused on young women.
- 12:24In particular it's young immigrant women and with a particular focus on young Muslim women.
- 12:33Right, So this is divisive in a number of different ways. Yeah,
- 12:37and they're doing this in the context of what they're describing as the squad
- 12:41and you'll be familiar with that term because of Alexandria occasional cortex. I can't
- 12:46remember how to pronounce the name and ilan Omar and the other hard left wing
- 12:52Democrat US politicians who've been pushing this kind of agenda for the past. But
- 12:56it's probably a decade now, isn't it. Can I just say on the
- 12:58Squad it very much remains me of common purpose because it's leadership training. Yes,
- 13:03let's kiss for young people, but it's also an alumni networking on the
- 13:07background as well. Absolutely. Yeah, And what's really interesting is they're actually
- 13:11scrubbing this information from the website at the moment. So actually, I was
- 13:15going to say at the start, all of the partners who were formerly listed
- 13:18on the website, so the six and the US Embassy and those organizations,
- 13:24they've actually been removed over the past few weeks from the site, so they're
- 13:28cleaning this up in this important election year. And they've also removed all the
- 13:31references to the Squad as well, so they're kind of covering up their their
- 13:35methods. They're doing this in the context of basically a global gender war right
- 13:41and it's been going on for a long time, but there's been a lot
- 13:45of discussion over recent weeks of a global gender divide that's emerging. But I'm
- 13:50sure it's just happening. It's nothing, nobody behind it. It's not a
- 13:54conspiracy, it's completely organic. Mike. Of course, this is just emanating
- 13:58up from the ether, like there's nothing behind it at all. But it
- 14:01is quite a remarkable split, and it's all down the middle between male and
- 14:05female. And what we're seeing is that women are much more liberal than men,
- 14:09much more likely to vote for left wing parties than men. And as
- 14:15you say, it's not naturally occurring, it's being driven by the action taken
- 14:18by organizations like MLMs, Freud Communications, Tortoise Media, basically the whole mainstream
- 14:24media. The entire cultural narrative has been geared up to deliver this divide.
- 14:28Yeah, just yet another divide. We talked about the young and the old,
- 14:31talked about gender divide, we talk about the religious dynamic they've introduced into
- 14:37this, but also it is about race. And actually, the last time
- 14:39I think we spoke about my life, my say was that highlight that Dr
- 14:45Scholer, mosh Shagmimimu bag Mimimu. Yeah, I think I got that right,
- 14:50actually spoke at their launch event, interestingly, and she's a big critic
- 14:54of Israel. Apart from she probably isn't a big critic of Israel behind closed
- 14:58doors. She was quite happy to go along to this launch event back in
- 15:03twenty twenty one to talk alongside Reverend Al Sharpton and ol Sharpton is one of
- 15:09the biggest race drifters of the past fifty years. Basically, you know,
- 15:13extremely divisive figure in the United States. And you can see him here arriving
- 15:18into the UK to meet Lord Simon Woolley of Woodford, which is where I
- 15:22live. So he's my lord, I suppose. And he's now actually principal
- 15:28of Homerton College in Cambridge, where he's personally leading efforts to further radicalized students.
- 15:33And we can see him here speaking at the Cambridge Union last week.
- 15:39I want to say you back for thirty years if I marry, because thirty
- 15:43years ago I was an up becoming activist five him for social and recial justice
- 15:48with Operation Operation Black Verte. Back there there were four black Asian and minority
- 15:54at the KPUS. Now that's sixty four. But I'm with a black and
- 16:04brown Cob with a brown prime minister. But that's the goodness from four to
- 16:11sixty four the bad if you don't the goal of this. Not all our
- 16:18skin folk are our key folk, you know, Joko decide. It breaks
- 16:26my heart as a matter of fact to see black and brown faces sending on
- 16:32the place of dover, saying to the most vulnerable on the planet, we
- 16:36don't want to do so. According to Lord Willie, your skin color should
- 16:44define your political opinions. Yeah, and he is actually one of the most
- 16:49active and one of the worst dividers in the country at the moment. And
- 16:55we're going to see these intersectional fault lines between races, relief gens, genders,
- 17:00the different generations in the country opened up as much as possible by these
- 17:04people this year. And it's our job is concerned and active and engaged citizens
- 17:10to put the pieces better together and to unite the country with a few doo
- 17:12classes civilizations perhaps see let's see Yes, Okay, let's move on. If

- 18:36welcome. Now I'm delighted to say that we're joined by Matt Campbell and Pierce
- 18:41Robinson, but we'll speak to Matt first. Welcome back to the UK column.
- 18:45Matt, No, you have been on to talk about particularly your brother
- 18:49who passed away in the North Tower on September the eleventh, two thousand and
- 18:53one, and you've been aiming to get an inquest reopened into that death for
- 19:00quite a long time now and being rebuffed fairly firmly by the Establishment. What's
- 19:07the update, because the last time you were on you were attempting to rise
- 19:10money to bring further court action. Give us the update and where you're at
- 19:14with it. Yeah, So we did a crowd funding appeal which probably lasted
- 19:22about six seven weeks, and we managed to raise sufficient funds in order to
- 19:29challenge the Attorney General's decision through the process of a just judicial review. So
- 19:36we had a deadline of the third of April to submit the file and apply
- 19:41for judicial real which we made. Because it's actually quite a complicated case and
- 19:47there's a lot of supporting documents. We are actually still in the process of
- 19:52filing additional documents, so that should be finished next week. And then the
- 20:00Attorney General has about three weeks to respond as to whether they are going to
- 20:07you know, stand by their decision and let the court make a decision as
- 20:11to whether judicial review hearing would be held. And so, yeah, apart
- 20:18from us just finishing off the final submission next week, by the end of
- 20:22May, we will know you know, which path the Attorney General wants to
- 20:26take, whether they're going to capitulate, whether she's going to capitulate and essentially
- 20:30sign a consent order saying you know, we we back down, or whether
- 20:33they're actually going to you know, say, we're going to meet you in
- 20:37court. So where does that decision lie? Is that that if the attorney's
- 20:45the Attorney General's decision to decide how to act, depending on how they how
- 20:52she reacts, you will then it will then go to court for a judicial
- 20:56review. Can she block that process? No? No, So essentially because
- 21:02we've served, we filed at court and we will complete the filing next week,
- 21:07they have to within twenty one days do what's called an acknowledgment of service,
- 21:11which is essentially, if they wish to meet us in court as it
- 21:15were, they have to respond with their own grounds as to why they think
- 21:19their decision that they made to deny the reopening my brother's inquest was a lawful
- 21:26one. At that point, it's then in the High Court moment for them
- 21:33to make the decision as to whether we are actually able to judicially review the
- 21:37decision that the Turn General has made. So it's a kind of two step
- 21:41process at the moment, which is, you know, once you finished the
- 21:44filing, the Attorney General is going to make a decision as to whether to
- 21:48just you know throw the talelent or whether she's actually going to you know,
- 21:53meet us in court potentially. And that's I said if the High Court which
- 22:00is agreed that the decision can be judicially reviewed, and so if that agreement
- 22:07is made and you do get to go to judicial review, how long will
- 22:08that process take? My understanding is the from when the Attorney General responds with
- 22:18the acknowledgement of service and to submit their own grounds, we're talking probably a
- 22:22couple of months for the High Court to make a decision as to whether the
- 22:26judicial review would go ahead or not. And if it was to go ahead,
- 22:30they would set a hearing date which would probably be another two months down
- 22:34the line. From that point. So we're probably talking about if the hearings
- 22:40to go ahead, you'll probably talking about September timeframe, which are enough obviously
- 22:44is going to be around the anniversary time right, And in the judicial review
- 22:48process itself, would you would you be required to present some of the new
- 22:53evidence that you feel needs to be heard in the in the in the in
- 22:57the final inquiry or what are you what's the decision going to be based on.
- 23:03It's it's mainly points of law rather than the actual evidence. I mean,
- 23:08it's obviously part of our grounds for arguing that the Attorney General's made an
- 23:15lawful decision, but I mean essentially it's it's looking at did they from the
- 23:21high courts position, did the Attorney General correctly apply the various tests they're supposed
- 23:29to apply, and was their decision lawful? So we are actually really attacking,
- 23:34you know, was it a lawful decision that they made within the powers
- 23:37that the Attorney General has? You know? So it's it does involve the
- 23:44new evidence, but this at this phase, it's more just more focusing on
- 23:48the legal decision making of the eternal Attorney General. Yeah, and I mean
- 23:56just just to finish off, I mean, you have shown a credible tenacity
- 24:00and determination in this and I think it's a great demonstration of what's required and
- 24:06these types of situations. In fact, in any kind of situation of this
- 24:10type, you just got to keep going. And so you are making progress
- 24:14at the stage. I mean, yes, you've got to keep going.
- 24:18I mean it's lawfair. I think they try and push things out. It's
- 24:22just where a lot of these kind of cases go. That's not to say
- 24:26that we can't. We should be winning on paper at every single stage.
- 24:29We shouldn't have to keep fighting. But unfortunately, you know that's the that's
- 24:33what we're having to do here, you know, is it positive? Well,
- 24:37this the first refusal that the Attorney General gave us last summer. You
- 24:41know, we did a similar process. We applied, we were preparing to
- 24:45apply for judicial review. Serve the grounds on the Attorney General and you know,
- 24:51to the extent that they just went, we're going to lose, and
- 24:55they, within their rights, made another decision which again they said no.
- 25:00But to be honest, the grounds that the reasoning they've put in their very
- 25:04brief letter isn't much better than what they gave us in September before. So
- 25:10you know, I have every confidence that you know, on paper we win
- 25:12this, which obviously why we're taking it to court in the first place.
- 25:18YEA, yeah, brilliant. Well, I mean we wish you all the
- 25:22best with it and so on. But Pierce, let's welcome you to the
- 25:26program and at the weekend there will be a showing of Peace War and nine
- 25:32to eleven featuring Graham McQueen, who passed away some time ago. But you
- 25:37will be attending, and Matt will be attending as well to take part in
- 25:41the Q and A yes, that's correct. International Center for nine to eleven
- 25:47Justice as part of the essentially the commemorations of Graham's passing last year, we
- 25:52got a whole series of events as one in Boston, as this event in
- 25:56bar and the film Peace War on nine to eleven is It was directed by
- 26:00Ted Walter, who's in charge of IC nine one one International Center for nine
- 26:04to eleven Justice, and the film documents essentially the life and the work of
- 26:10Professor Graham McQueen. He's one of the key researchers in the field of essentially
- 26:15nine to eleven truth it's sometimes labeled, but essentially the academic research community who
- 26:19were courageous enough to actually engage with what had happened on nine to eleven,
- 26:25and of course granted powerful work on the anfracts attacks which occurred immediately after nine
- 26:30to eleven, which were connected to nine to eleven as part of that deception.
- 26:34And so it's a brilliant film. It's a very powerful, very moving
- 26:37film. And we'll be screening that at the Chapel Arts Center in bar doors
- 26:45open at six point thirty and then we have got built around the film.
- 26:49I'll be giving a talk at the start, just for twenty twenty five minutes
- 26:53to the audience essentially about the work of the International Center for nine to Eleven
- 26:57Justice organization who is involved in essentially generating new research in relation not only to
- 27:07nine to eleven, but also to the broader issue of propagander and deception and
- 27:11called structural deep events, including COVID nineteen and so an organization set up to
- 27:18do research also to support, as we are with the Campbell family, legal
- 27:22moves by families trying to get justice and accountability for nine to eleven, and
- 27:26we're also involved with essentially educating the public about the body of knowledge which has
- 27:32been established over the last twenty years on what happened on nine to eleven.
- 27:37And so I'll give a little bit of a talk about what we're doing in
- 27:40nicety nine one one to the audience, and then to spend ten to fifteen
- 27:42minutes really running through the parallels between nine to eleven and COVID nineteen. These
- 27:51are what I am in academic terminology called structural deep events. But these are
- 27:56events which are instigated, manipulated by elites for political purpose. Is in a
- 28:00very big way. And so I'll be talking about, you know, through
- 28:04some of the parallels that there are between the two events. You know,
- 28:07we have hidden agendas, some not quite hidden agendas, especially in the COVID
- 28:12case of COVID nineteen. We have large volumes of propaganda, we have instigation
- 28:18of events, criminal activity, the involvement of the deep state or the intelligence
- 28:22services. And I'll be mapping out some of these parallels that there are between
- 28:26the two and this is based on what I'm doing at the moment for the
- 28:30International Center of nine to eleven Justice. And then once we'll have the screening
- 28:36I think starting at seven point thirty with the film, and then in the
- 28:41closing half our forty five minutes after the film, we'll have a Q and
- 28:45A session which will primarily be people ask me questions, but it's really orientated
- 28:49at Matt and for Matt to talk to the audience about the legal process,
- 28:55the legal battle that he's involved in, and then going into some of the
- 28:57details. So you know, we're hoping it's going to be a good,
- 29:03friendly evening. It'll be nice to sort of meet people if people can make
- 29:07it out to the Chapel Art Center and bath and yeah, that's essentially all
- 29:14I have to say, and just to encourage people to come along. I
- 29:15think you have the details for the event and your website. I've got it
- 29:18on my Twitter top of my Twitter feed is an advert for the event and
- 29:22so on, so people can readily find out where it is and so on.
- 29:26Absolutely, so it's on screen at the moment, and then we will
- 29:29have details in the show notes after the program. So Piers and Matt,
- 29:33thank you Bett very much for joining us. Matt, congratulations on the progress
- 29:37you're making. We hope you have success in the coming weeks, and we'll
- 29:44let everybody know as this story develops. So thank you both for joining us
- 29:47today. Okay, let's move on and Debbie, let's have a chat about
- 29:53plundering state assets with public private partnerships. Oh yes, well you know so.
- 30:00I think this segment will probably apply to most places on the globe,
- 30:03but in particular if you happen to be watching in Europe, the USA,
- 30:07UK, here, and Commonwealth countries, please take special note because we seem
- 30:12to have got used to the words world government because we seem to be ruled
- 30:15by a world government already. Right, climate change, sustainable goals, sustainable
- 30:22initiatives, public private partnerships. These terms just slip off the tongue, don't
- 30:27they But what do they actually mean and what is actually going on? In
- 30:32plain sight? And you don't have to go far just go back to the
- 30:34UK Column website and I found this extraordinary article. I really would recommend everybody
- 30:41goes and looks at this. It's only very short, but it really is
- 30:45ahead of its time, Martin Edwards plundering state assets with public private partnerships.
- 30:49And this was published in two ten. So this is how way back and
- 30:55how far ahead the UK Column were. So let's look at this in more
- 30:59details. Well, because Martin was spot on right, if we go back
- 31:02to the Treasury and we look at twenty twelve. You can see there the
- 31:07education when it comes to public private partnerships, Education have one hundred and sixty
- 31:11plus projects and the Department of Health with one hundred and eighteen, Scottish Government
- 31:18with eighty plus and right at the bottom with under twenty is arts, culture,
- 31:22media and sport. Now, thank you so much too Martin Edwards's article,
- 31:29and also to one of our viewers in Australia, Peter, You'll know
- 31:32who you are. Thank you so much. You introduced me to Joan ViOn.
- 31:36Now Joan ViOn sadly died in two ten. She was remarkable way before
- 31:41her time, and in nineteen ninety four she was a businesswoman who went to
- 31:45a UN conference on Population and Development in Cairo in Egypt, and she saw
- 31:51through the veil and then went on to attend one hundred and three United Nation
- 31:55conferences. She also formed the Women's International Media Group. She's absolutely extraordinary.
- 32:02Have a listen to what she says about PPP. The real bottom line of
- 32:10a public private partnership is to take control of the assets of government. Local
- 32:19government, county government, municipal government, state government, and even federal government.
- 32:28To take control of assets this is an asset transfer. Now I'm going
- 32:32to give you a quick whistle stop tour through just a few pages that you
- 32:37can find on the net regarding public private partnership. So, first of all,
- 32:43Open Democracy they published this article back in twenty nineteen how the United Nations
- 32:47is quietly being turned into a public private partnership and new agreement with the World
- 32:53Economic Forum. So let's go to the World Economic Forum next, and you
- 32:57can see that they're looking at climate change, water surprise, and also there
- 33:02you've got your G your G four to G twenty global smart Cities. Those
- 33:07are just two of the many papers that you'll find on the WEF. Then
- 33:13we go to McKinsey. So McKinsey are up to their necks in we'll call
- 33:17it PPP to save time, public private partnership at the highest level. And
- 33:22they go on actually to talk about the four p's, So we're no longer
- 33:28at the three p's, but now we've added an extra P, which is
- 33:32a philanthropic so we have them collaborating with the WEF as well. They have
- 33:39a sustainability four P model, and if you see in the next slide,
- 33:45you can see what are the four P models. Well, that's power,
- 33:47agriculture, forestry and land conservation. But what do our government say about PPPP
- 33:55or PPP. Well, there you can go and find a basic introduction for
- 34:00non specialists and they give you a bit more information going on in the document
- 34:06and they say that it's a significant value. Of course it is. But
- 34:10you can see down at the bottom there I've highlighted it. I mean,
- 34:13please prease the screen and read all of it. I won't read it out,
- 34:15but at the bottom it says a government transfers the exclusive rights to a
- 34:21private operator or investor to develop and or operate an infrastructure facility under certain conditions
- 34:28for a fixed period of time. So what kind of projects are we actually
- 34:32talking about? Well, if we go to the Infrastructure and Projects Authority and
- 34:37look at their annual report on major Projects, this was just twenty twenty two
- 34:42to twenty twenty three, So I just did the next slide really is just
- 34:46a very quick look at an overall picture. Please go to the report and
- 34:51look if you want to see in more detail. But you've got fleet solid
- 34:53support. Her Majesty's prison five wells New Prison Rapid Charging Fund for Electtion Vehicles,
- 35:00National Law Enforcement program. I'm sure Charles will be covering more of that
- 35:05in the future, and contact engagement programs. And this isn't just government,
- 35:12this is local government too. As Joan Von was saying, this is every
- 35:15form of government, which other country you're in, and here is something just
- 35:19to back that up, local government. So you can see here we've got
- 35:22public private partnerships driving growth, building resistance. If we go back to Margaret
- 35:28Thatcher, and I do go back to Margaret Thatcher often. If we look
- 35:32at page six hundred and thirty nine of her book, we can see that
- 35:37she says that with regards to water privatization, which many of you will remember,
- 35:42I'm sure back in the eighties, too much science funding going towards defense.
- 35:45The government were funding research which could and should have been left to industry,
- 35:51and as a result, there was a tendency for the research effort to
- 35:54universities and scientific institutes to lose out. I was convinced this was wrong.
- 36:00So let's go back to the WEF and look for the Global Water Initiative and
- 36:06we can see, yeah, there we go a public private partnership. But
- 36:10let's take you back to the amazing Joan v On what does she say,
- 36:15and pay attention. Water Alana, Georgia cannot afford to restructure revamp their sewage
- 36:25system. And therefore they go to the people, the citizenry, and they
- 36:31say, we're going to have to raise your taxes X amount of dollars in
- 36:35order to be able to afford to restructure revamp the sewer system. The citizens
- 36:40and re says, we are already paid too many taxes. We refuse to
- 36:45do this, and so they go back to the drawing board, and then
- 36:50amazingly they will come up with some innovative idea. You always look for that
- 36:57word innovado, and sure, as you read through, they will talk about
- 37:02how, for example, Boeing Corporation is going to partner with the City of
- 37:10Atlanta and the state of Georgia to help with their sewer system, and of
- 37:20course the Nature Conservancy or the Sierra Club or one of them is going to
- 37:24come along as a non governmental organization to help. And so pretty soon what
- 37:30really happens is the sewer system, which belongs to the taxpayers of Atlanta,
- 37:37Georgia, is transferred to this new partnership which is comprised of Boeing and the
- 37:46City of Atlanta and the State of Georgia and the Sierra Club to help the
- 37:53citizens get a new sewer system. Now, what happens in a private partnership
- 38:00besides the transfer of their asset. Well, the little old lady who receives
- 38:06her sewer bill goes in the shop and calls up and says, I'm sorry,
- 38:10I can't afford this. And that's what you're seeing right in front of
- 38:16your eyes, a very stealthy transfer of public assets into private hands. So
- 38:22how prophetic the water companies? Well, let's go back to the Guardian.
- 38:27Was it such a good idea that we had privatization of the water companies?
- 38:30Plenty of secrets to be told, but Water UK actually their report seems to
- 38:36think that everything in the garden is completely rosy. I would have a few
- 38:40things to say about that. They say that the service has improved and that
- 38:45bills have remained low. I would disagree with that. But that's just one
- 38:51example. But let's just finish on my favorite topic, healthcare. So,
- 38:53of course in healthcare we have plenty of public private partnerships, and no more
- 39:00so than a big history of public private partnerships. This all start it off
- 39:04in nineteen ninety one and has finished recently in twenty sixteen with this a massive
- 39:12one point one billion contract buying out Barts and the London Hospital with private contracts.
- 39:17And of course now it's still going on. We've got KPMG winning the
- 39:22role in the NHS federated data platform with Palenteer. And let's just end on
- 39:27the World Health Organization because of course they are full of PPPs or pppps.
- 39:34And of course if we look at the stakeholders and the contributors, there you
- 39:37go Bill and Melinda Gates number two, so PPPs, world Government one in
- 39:44the same. Yes. Indeed, well, let's bring ourselves back to the
- 39:50wonderful Mark Cancarney, who of course was Governor of the Bank of England for
- 39:55many years. He's gone back to Canada, where he's from, and he
- 40:00was giving a speech last week at the Canada twenty twenty a Time to Build
- 40:05Economic look Ahead dinner in Toronto. So that's pretty exciting. No, just
- 40:09to put this in a little bit of context, if you remember, once
- 40:12he had left the back of England he started talking about Climately he started appearing
- 40:15at all the various COP meetings and saying things like this, we will not
- 40:22get to the net zero in the nation requires a whole economy transition. So
- 40:25as a sort of leader in financial affairs, he's talking about transitioning the whole
- 40:31economy. Not what to, We're not sure, but he went on to
- 40:35say that companies that don't adapt, including companies in the financial system, will
- 40:39go bankrupt without question. So when we ad this Canada twenty twenty event a
- 40:45few days ago, he was talking about net zero, let's have a listen
- 40:49to what he had to say, which brings me to the second rewiring,
- 40:54which is this energy transition, the net zero transition. This is much much
- 41:04bigger and moving even faster than most realize. A few years ago, businesses
- 41:13around the world invested fifty cents in clean energy for every dollar they put into
- 41:20fossil fuel energy. Now they invest two in clean energy for every dollar in
- 41:27fossil fuel energy. Two trillion dollars in clean right now, and that ratio
- 41:32is only going to continue to grow because being low carbon is now a fundamental
- 41:37driver of competitiveness, and it's a dynamic that's being reinforced by the AI revolution.
- 41:45And on that last point, I'll just give one fact. The explosion
- 41:50in AI computing power is driving the top four US tech companies, and lets
- 41:55take the top four. Their power demand, which which is all clean power
- 42:00demand this year is greater than the generating capacity of Sweden, and it's only
- 42:07going to increase now. So make no mistake. The global economy is in
- 42:15a new regime, but the laws of economics haven't changed, and as a
- 42:22consequence of that, the world's prone to higher and more volatile inflation, higher
- 42:29interest rates not just today but over the medium term, and new drivers of
- 42:34productivity. And there are other laws, since debts must be repaid and investors
- 42:40rewarded for taking risks. Governments that spend too much and invest too little will
- 42:46eventually pay a heavy price. So it's not just companies and banks so that
- 42:52are going to go bankrupt. It's governments as well. They're going to bankrupt
- 42:55governments that don't do the right thing and the right thing. As far as
- 42:59he is, serned us to be jumping on the net zero bandwagon and so
- 43:02on, But he wasn't worried about telling lies in his speech. So let's
- 43:08listen to the second short clip. Here. Some right wing populists that see
- 43:15current anxieties as an opportunity to stoke anger because anger is what's necessary for their
- 43:22project. After all, people don't demolish things when they're positive or optimistic.
- 43:29I know this. I know this from my time in the UK, where
- 43:35for years the rallying cry of Brexitters was broken Britain and their solution to take
- 43:44back control was actually code for tear down your future. So while Brexitters promised
- 43:52that they were going to create Singapore on the Thames, the Trust Government actually
- 43:59delivered Argentina on the Channel, broken Britain. Does that sound familiar When politicians
- 44:12claim our great democracies are broken, it's not because they want to fix them.
- 44:17It's because they want a license to demolish. So he he, we'll
- 44:25talk about much more about this extra. I was just spectacular. But look
- 44:30he said with a straight face that the Trust Government turned Britain, destroyed Britain.
- 44:37The Trust Government wasn't a government for long enough to do anything. So
- 44:40this is a complete lie with his position there. But anyway, we will
- 44:45talk more about that an extra, but a related topic. Then let's put
- 44:52let's put this on screen because we've talked about anthropy, and we've talked about
- 44:55that place. The name escapes the Eiden Project aid amongst our tihuman players I
- 45:00think I've ever been to. Actually, we can talk about data extra as
- 45:04well. Well yeah quite, And I mean you say a related topic.
- 45:07Everything we're talking about today is related. All of this stuff links together.
- 45:12The global PPP needs to touch down in the nation state. How does it
- 45:15touch down in the nation state through organizations like anthropy. We talked about it
- 45:20last week, right, and we'll be talking about it a lot more because
- 45:22they're gearing up this year. They describe themselves as a Davos on Sea.
- 45:25I'm bringing them back into the mix because on the back of the big launch
- 45:30event we spoke about last week, they've just announced their anthropy alliances. So
- 45:35these are new national, thematic and regional leadership alliances to lead organizations into implementing
- 45:42turning the philosophy into action and impact. Right, So they've got a global
- 45:45philosophy of public private partnership. How do they actually put that into the system.
- 45:50They do it through people, through relationships, through organizations. I'll just
- 45:52touch on a few of these here so that they jumped out at me.
- 45:55The first one, Children in Education, is being represented by Ken Fletcher,
- 46:00whose chief financial officer and Transformation director at the Very Group, which is Littlewoods
- 46:06Catalogs, which is basically like it's a financial services company actually because people buy
- 46:12that stuff on credit ridiculous APR. And it's also owned by the Carlisle Group,
- 46:15who is the primary beneficiary of the war in Iraq alongside Halliburton. So
- 46:21that's what we've got thinking about children and education. Who else have we got
- 46:24on here? Ray Newton Smith, the chief executive of the Confederation of British
- 46:30Industry. So this is an extraordinarily high powered and well connected group of people.
- 46:34You've got Professor Jurgen Meyer CBE, there's a lot of CBS NBS obs
- 46:38as part of Andrew B within their network. He runs the Northern Powerhouse Partnership,
- 46:44all right, So George Osbourne's big push to basically create a megacity in
- 46:47the North, he's running it. He actually talks on his LinkedIn profile about
- 46:52personally being invested in delivering the Fourth Industrial Revolution. He actually says that publicly
- 46:57he's looking after infrastructure as a guy from West in the mix there as well.
- 47:00And then also interestingly, particularly given what we've just heard from Mark Carney,
- 47:06my former colleague Rob Dopel, managing partner for Sustainability. E Y is
- 47:10looking after climate and natural places, and we've got a little short clip for
- 47:14him from him talking, which you're going to show you now. I think
- 47:19CFOs have got such a critical role to play around keeping sustainability front and center
- 47:24for organization. Basically, all decisions in an organization, all capital decisions or
- 47:30spend decisions, all flow through finance, and I think finance have the responsibility
- 47:36of ensuring that those decisions are made not just looking at financial outcomes, but
- 47:40looking at much broader outcomes because the stakeholder environment has changed, the expectations have
- 47:45changed of organizations. What are you doing for society, what you're doing for
- 47:50climate, what you're doing for people, etc. And I think CFOs,
- 47:52therefore I have got a responsibility to ensure that that decision making process and how
- 47:57they provide decision support to the business incorporates a broader set of measures than just
- 48:05pure financial All decisions go through finance. If he worked in a company,
- 48:13small, big, whatever it might be. In a well run business,
- 48:15all the decisions go through finance. It's the perfect place to apply a control
- 48:20mechanism. That's what Rob de Pell's talking about. That's what Ewy are doing
- 48:22is what they're promoting to their clients. And that's why Mark Corney is so
- 48:25confident the companies that don't do what they're told are going to go bust,
- 48:30right, because they've basically embedded this right into their governance. Final point on
- 48:36anthropy. I've been thinking about the word this week. Is an interesting word.
- 48:38They've obviously constructed it from somewhere. Let's look at the etymology. So
- 48:43philanthropy itself means love of humankind, and the word phil the first syllable in
- 48:51philanthropy, comes from the Greek word philos, which means deer, all beloved.
- 48:54So anthropy is simply philanthropy without love and effect. Yeah, and I
- 49:00think that tells you everything that you need to know about what was happening here.
- 49:04Yes, indeed, Okay. Now, on Wednesday's program, we were
- 49:07talking about the King's speech and particularly two pieces of legislation, but one of
- 49:10them was the Investigatory pars Amendment Bill, and so just wanted to remind everybody
- 49:15that one of the main targets for that was encryption. So why am I
- 49:19mentioning it again today? Because Reclaim the Net here has published this article leak
- 49:24EU government imposed bulk scanning orders on encrypted messaging services. So just think about
- 49:30that bulk scanning orders, because we kind of have the same thing with the
- 49:35online safety bills and related legislation in the UK. But the article says this,
- 49:40It says yet another leak document has emerged revealing details from the European Union
- 49:45policy regarding on the implementation of the Child Sexual Abuse Regulation. So again this
- 49:50not just in you know, Pierce is talking about structural deep events. This
- 49:53is a structural deep event because this is happening right across the world in different
- 49:58jurisdictions. So we have child abuse, the excusive child abuse being used to
- 50:02shut down freedoms on the Internet in every Western country at the moment. So
- 50:07if we put that back on screen for a second, let's have a look
- 50:10at the document itself. Here, it is the website context put it up.
- 50:15They received the leak and what they're basically saying is in this document from
- 50:19the EU that if you're running a chat and online chat service, some kind
- 50:23of encrypted service for customers online, you will be scored and if you get
- 50:29a low score, you would be subject to your content being given one of
- 50:32these orders to have your content being scanned. So low score would mean would
- 50:37be caused by any encryption service which does not require a user account to use.
- 50:40And the example that I give on Wednesday was the VPN service Movad,
- 50:45which allows you to put a piece of output cash in an envelope and send
- 50:49it to them and get access to service without any requirement to explain who you
- 50:53are and so on. So this would be a completely anonymous service and this
- 50:57is really dangerous as far as the EU is concerned. And on the other
- 51:00hand, they say that you would get a high score if you were a
- 51:05chat service for example that doesn't encroake by default for example, and this is
- 51:07my example, Telegram, so they would not require an order because they're already
- 51:14open to surveillance in bold data collection. So it is just very interesting.
- 51:17I just wanted to highlight this point. This is not something that's just happening
- 51:21in the UK. It's happening right across the world, and therefore we need
- 51:24a view, in my opinion, viewed as a deep structural event and consider
- 51:30it accordingly. Okay, let's move on then, Debbie, and what are
- 51:36we talking about here? Bill Gates is back in the picture. Oh don't
- 51:39spoil my surprise, Mike, we've got a new dish on the agenda.
- 51:44I know you're going to be talking about food again in a minute, but
- 51:46we've got a new dish. Imagine this. Imagine growing a crop you don't
- 51:51need rain. It can be planted in sandy soil or desert soil, and
- 51:54it's considered actually a serial of the pool. Well, it's coming to us,
- 52:00or it might be coming to us. This is phonio, or as
- 52:05Stephanie has kindly nicknamed it, phony So could phonio be a grain older than
- 52:08the wheel? Be the future of the food. And just to let you
- 52:12know, it's the women that do the farming on this. Women do fifty
- 52:15percent of the work and men do fourteen percent. I'm not quite sure who
- 52:19does the difference. But yeah, Bill Gates is getting really excited about it.
- 52:22And you can crush it. You can make it into porridge as well,
- 52:27lovely bowl of porridge here, or perhaps he wants to call it gruel.
- 52:30So yeah, let's have a look at Bill Gates getting terribly excited about
- 52:37this. He's cooking, he's got the chefs, but even better, he's
- 52:42produced a little video. Have a little look trigger warning. Hmm, Well,
- 53:21if you don't fancy eating it, don't worry. You can brew with
- 53:24it. So fono is being actually used in British in the UK because Thornbridge
- 53:34Brewery and Guinness have already signed up. Because of course it grows so well
- 53:39in drought areas. Perhaps that means we're going to have a drought. I'm
- 53:43not sure, but you can see there that you've also got Guinness, You've
- 53:49got Thornbridge, You've got all sorts of people, including Carlsburg taking part in
- 53:53this. However, this isn't such good news. I'm not sure as Sir
- 53:58Bill hasn't done all of his homework. Because if you'd have gone to the
- 54:00Advisory Committee on Novel Foods and Processes, and let's not forget the word novel
- 54:06means new, they've got other thoughts and they're not too happy about fonio.
- 54:10Now I've just taken a few screenshots and I'm just gonna Stephanie's just going to
- 54:15run through them and you can read them at your leisure. But basically,
- 54:17what the Food Advisory Committee is saying is that there are no health benefits that
- 54:22they can see. There's not enough information. The water quality is going to
- 54:28be monitored because they have got no clue of the sustainability of it for transportation
- 54:36and distribution distribution. It could also affect thyroid activity. So the significant conclusion
- 54:45was actually that there was no conclusion and it doesn't seem to be safe or
- 54:51a a good bet for a European diet. So perhaps sa Bill wants to
- 54:55go back and do his homework. But I must say, sir Bill has
- 54:59just to sell two of his yachts because apparently now he's at the bottom of
- 55:04the top billionaires list. Just saying was that with he yes, Okay,
- 55:09maybe we shouldn't say that. Okay, thank you, Debbie, thank you
- 55:13for that. But sticking with food, of course, let's bring full fact
- 55:15on screen, because full fact some time ago is very very keen to tell
- 55:19us that Agenda twenty thirty will not enforce eating insects, banning cars or a
- 55:23global dictatorship that so insects are not on the menu. Right a minstream media
- 55:30telling us says as well, this is the independent you were world order,
- 55:32how the right wing became accessed with eating bugs? Then what we've got bloomberg
- 55:37here one flies with that. EU critics of a new conspiracy theory. So
- 55:40it's all conspiracy theories, except that the BBC is carrying this today or yesterday.
- 55:47In fact, the insect farmers turning to AI to help lower costs,
- 55:52and they were talking about this organization, Well, this is one of the
- 55:54organizers. Sorry, this is one of the organizations they're talking about here.
- 55:59If I can get this to play properly, full circle, who are providing
- 56:04bugs to be used in animal feed. So the bug food is going to
- 56:08pigs and it's also going to shrimps, so you know, we might not
- 56:13beating it directly, but we're certainly eating food which has been eating that type
- 56:16of protein. And this is one of a growing number of biotech organizations that
- 56:22are developing mechanisms for growing bugs in factory formats, and they're wanting to lower
- 56:30their costs by bringing AI into the picture as well. So you know,
- 56:35all the people that are shouting that there's nothing in this bug eating story,
- 56:38they might want to look again at the situation. But related in a certain
- 56:44sense is genomics because and the reason I said that, of course, is
- 56:47because what's behind all this, aside from Bill Gates, is the gene editing
- 56:53idea which the UK passed legislation for But what's the latest on Genomics England.
- 56:59Well, just to remind people, Genomics England is the jewel in the crown
- 57:02of the UK government's genetic engineering strategy. It's a data platform. It's going
- 57:08to how's the genetic sequences of the entire population. They've already got about five
- 57:15million people on there. It's been running since the twenty twelve Olympic Games.
- 57:19Is actually part of the legacy of the Olympic Games. I think we tells
- 57:22you everything you need to know about those Olympics. It's fundamental to the UK
- 57:27Life Sciences vision. Right, So this is from twenty twenty one, the
- 57:30Boris Johnson Life Sciences Vision. It describes a digital technology platform as health system
- 57:37and it has built back better written all over it. It's absolutely aligned to
- 57:40the World Economic Forum strategy. They're getting the whole population on board, as
- 57:45I said, including right the way down to newborn and even in vitro as
- 57:49well. They're talking about right, But don't worry. Don't worry. There
- 57:52are sensible people inside the organization, absolutely laser focused on ethics and I'm going
- 57:58to introduce you to the head of it right now. Everyone's heard of ethics,
- 58:02so what is it? I will now eat. I'm head of ethics
- 58:07operations here at Genomics England. Ethics is a branch of philosophy. For me,
- 58:10Ethics is the difference between can and should, and the law will dictate
- 58:15what we can and can't do. But just because you can do something,
- 58:17it doesn't mean you should do it. In medical ethics, we have four
- 58:22pillars and those are justice. Justice is about fairness, It's about equity,
- 58:27and equity is thinking about different people having different circumstances and perhaps needing more of
- 58:32something in order to get an equal outcome than there's autonomy, so that's giving
- 58:37people a choice and then respecting that choice. In medical ethics, everything is
- 58:40dictated by concept. Then there's beneficence, and what that is is making sure
- 58:45that everything we do is of benefit to people. And then there's the opposite
- 58:47to that, which is non modificence. And what nonmalificence is is making sure
- 58:52that it's not causing any harm to anybody. The most important part of ethics
- 58:55is demonstrating it. We will take those four areas into considering and when decided
- 59:00whether something is the right thing to do. Sorry, there was one really
- 59:05big non related corporation that said they would doing all hard and that we all
- 59:08know how that went right exactly. Yeah, ethics, Anyone talking about ethics
- 59:13around this stuff makes me incredibly nervous. But let's just be honest, right,
- 59:15Let's have a little look at this guy, because this was comical to
- 59:19me when I saw it pop up, given I've actually worked with Genemous England.
- 59:22I met with their senior leadership team about three years ago a couple of
- 59:25times, so I understand what's going on inside there. And this guy's they're
- 59:30running ethics, and he basically looks like some kind of nineteen seventies school teacher
- 59:34type person, doesn't he He's got a small wooden creature living in his beard.
- 59:37There. He's actually wearing nail polish, right, I mean, what's
- 59:42this all about? This is formal communication from Genomics England through their official channels,
- 59:46and this guy's got three week old nail polish. I was actually hoping
- 59:51Charles was going to be here because he could have done an expection because a
- 59:52bit of shoes aren't polished either, and that shirt doesn't look particularly well lined.
- 59:57Although I don't think I could talk because mine's not looking great today.
- 1:00:00But what was he talking about? Anyway, Let's not just deal with ad
- 1:00:02homs, right, We're going to actually dig into what he said. And
- 1:00:05the first thing he jumps out of me is he's talking about equity. This
- 1:00:08is a Marxist concept, right, This is equal outcomes. Right, So
- 1:00:12this guy is a Marxist running ethics for this organization. He talked about autonomy
- 1:00:17and consent, which is frankly laughable in the context of what the NHS has
- 1:00:22been doing for the past few years beneficence non maleficent since and again let's just
- 1:00:25roll it into what we said about consent. Yeah, they've been harming people,
- 1:00:30so the idea that this fellow is going to stop them from harming people
- 1:00:31is absolutely laughable. And then there was a little bit at the end there
- 1:00:35that was missed out where he says that the most important thing about being ethical
- 1:00:38is demonstrating that you're ethical, whereas I actually think that being ethical is the
- 1:00:43most important thing about being ethical. But anyway, yes, well I'm sure
- 1:00:49we'll be talking about that extra too, absolutely, Okay, Debbie will add
- 1:00:52with you then, And what's the letters from Cornwall? Well, I've got
- 1:00:58lots to say about Cornwall. Actually we'll talk more about it in Extra.
- 1:01:00But if you're thinking of coming to Cornwall for a holiday this summer, coming
- 1:01:04to see the Eden project, you might have a surprise because they're talking about
- 1:01:07taxing tourists coming into Cornwall, and actually they're going to tax them probably coming
- 1:01:14into Devon as well, to make sure that they don't ever get into Cornwall.
- 1:01:17So yeah, watch this space. And if you want to come and
- 1:01:21see new species of jumping spider, we've got one of those as well.
- 1:01:24Okay, Debbie, thank you very much, Thank you very much to Ben
- 1:01:28as well, and thank you for all joining us today. It's been a
- 1:01:30fun program. We will be back in a few minutes for some extra.
- 1:01:35Hope everyone has a great weekend, whether you're joining us for extra or not,
- 1:01:38and we will see you at one pm as usual on Monday. Thanks
- 1:01:40for joining us. Bye bye bye
