Good afternoon. Today is Monday, the tenth of June twenty twenty four,
0:13
just after one o'clock. Welcome to UK column News. I'm your host,
0:17
Brian Dearish and I'm delighted to have with me in the studio Diane Rasmus and
0:22
mcaddie and also Mark Anderson, so welcome to you both. Welcome to UK
0:29
Colin News. Thank you for joining me today, and i'd just like to
0:32
say happy birthday to anybody who's got a birthday today, the tenth of June.
0:39
Well, we're going to kick off with a little bit of a talk
0:41
about politics as we run up to the election, and what better place to
0:45
start than a picture with Rishie himself. So this is from the Tory Party
0:52
website. He's looking very slick and relaxed. No tie of course, because
0:57
that helps him appear as to be one of the people in UK, even
1:02
though there's billions in the background with his family. But this is how the
1:06
Tories are pushing forward for the election, and we have a look a bit
1:11
more of the detail. It says, if you want to change our country,
1:14
we have to change the way we do politics. Well, I certainly
1:17
agree, we need to change the way we do politics, and we're going
1:19
to try and show our viewers and listeners today a little bit about the reality
1:23
of politics in the UK. But he says, for the last thirty years,
1:27
politicians have resorted to short term political decision making, taking the easy way
1:34
out, rather than fixing the underlying problem problems. I'm going to say to
1:40
me, the underlying problem is the fact that we have a political system which
1:45
is rotten. He says. As Prime Minister, I will make the hard
1:49
but necessary, long term decisions to get the country on the right path for
1:53
a brighter future. Well, of course, the country has been broken by
1:57
the political system itself. But he's apparently going to have inflation. That'll be
2:02
interesting because he's not in control of the banks. He's going to grow the
2:06
economy. That'll be very interesting because he doesn't want to support businesses. He's
2:10
going to reduce debts. Well, again, he doesn't control the banks,
2:15
so that's not going to happen. And he's going to cut waiting lists,
2:17
get people the care they need more quickly. This is coming from a political
2:22
party that's worked hard to destroy the NHS system. And he's going to stop
2:27
the boats, even though the boats are only here because of failures of migration
2:31
policy within both Conservative and the Labor government. But if we move on through,
2:38
this is how the website looks. It's very clean and bright and clear,
2:42
and that's appropriate because they've got a clear plan of bold action for a
2:46
secure future. That means that they've stirred up wars, particularly now in the
2:52
Middle East and with the Russians, and so they're going to have to deal
2:54
with that. But they're making progress. But the key thing is they never
2:59
say where that progress is ultimately going to lead to. And I'm going to
3:04
suggest it's a global agenda. It's not to do with national politics. But
3:08
if you want the real detail, it's here, Clear Plan, Bold Action,
3:12
Secure Future. This almost takes us back to COVID nineteen lockdown with a
3:17
three phrase mantra, Clear Plan, Bold Action, Secure Future. And of
3:23
course if we have a look at the detail here, they're going to raise
3:27
defense spending to two point five percent of GDP by twenty thirty, but we're
3:30
also going to introduce national service for eighteen year olds. We're going to see
3:36
the Rwanda plan through, we're going to deal with inflation, we're going to
3:38
abolish national insurance we're going to fix the NHS, We're going to guarantee a
3:44
pencil triple lock, and we're going to double free childcare. That's if they're
3:50
not stealing your children in the first place. So it's pretty slick from the
3:53
Tories, not a lot of detail on how these things are going to be
3:58
done. But of course we're back to promises to the general public. And
4:02
then if we go labor, well, labor is a lot simpler to understand
4:06
because it's to do with kissing babies. And here's Kir Starmer cuddling a toddler.
4:12
Would I allow my child to be cuddled by clear Keir Starmer? I
4:15
think not. I don't trust him in any shape or form. But of
4:20
course what is he up to? Well, our mission is driven government.
4:27
Our mission, driven government will restore pride and purpose in our country. And
4:31
on Thursday, the fourth of July we he can make this a reality.
4:36
Together. It's time to be part of a change. But of course the
4:42
change and more change that the political parties are talking about ultimately leads us to
4:46
a state of ever changing and that is indeed revolution. And UK column has
4:53
warned on a number of occasions that what we're really dealing with is a political
4:58
system that is designed to create breakdown and chaos to bring in complete revolutionary change.
5:06
And it was only a few days ago on the UK column News that
5:10
we talked about Eric Pickle's former Communities minister, actually saying he was an unlikely
5:16
revolutionary but the revolutions started with him, so encourage people to do some checking
5:24
up. But let's have a look at the power behind the throne. And
5:27
of course the politicians on either side are just the political puppets. We'll bring
5:32
in the key players Rishi and of course Keir Starmer, but the power is
5:38
in the wings. It's the party funders for the Conservatives, lots of embarrassment
5:44
with Russian money. It's the power of the whips, it's the power of
5:46
the BBC at the mainstream media who only support the key parties. And it's
5:53
to do with the power of Israel and friends of Israel, and ultimately now
5:58
we've got the pressure of war. It's exactly the same system on the labor
6:03
side. And the one will bring in that covers both of them is the
6:09
remembrancer. And we'll be talking about the remembrancer in a bit, But essentially
6:15
this is the power base of the City of London in Westminster itself. Let's
6:20
have a look though at the whips and how they function. We've got a
6:24
couple of little video clips here. When MPs vote in the House of Commons,
6:33
they almost always vote the same way as their party. It's the job
6:40
of the party whips to make sure this happens. But recently the whips power
6:46
has come under threat and record numbers of MPs have rebelled against their own party.
7:00
The most rebellious MPs have become known as the Awkward Squad. One such
7:05
member is the Tory Peter Bone. Since the last election, he's voted against
7:14
the government nearly one hundred and fifty times. When as a division bearl rings
7:20
in the House of Commons or six hundred MPs are going to vote. Most
7:25
MPs have no idea what's being debated in the House of Commons and they turn
7:29
up which tell them which lobby to go through. The whip's job is to
7:32
keep their MPs united behind the party leader and to quell rebellions by the independent
7:39
minded food labeling now this is our policy. So if a vote is called,
7:46
we expect that everybody will be able to participate in that, and if
7:49
necessary, we'll put tellers in. So the man claims the MPs don't know
7:58
what they're voting for, and I think is right, and they're controlled.
8:01
Let's have a look at how that clip on the whips progressed. The whips
8:07
like to keep secret the way they work, but the Labor Chief Whip Rosy
8:15
Winterton, has invited us into her lair. So this is the Opposition Chief
8:20
Wip's office. And there's the whip's good isness. I only use it on
8:26
the members when they're especially well behaved. I haven't actually murdered anybody yet.
8:33
There are no thumbscrews in here, as you will have probably noticed. Well,
8:37
I'll get them out later if you want. So, you know,
8:39
the popular image is of rather a sinister operation, whereas actually what we do
8:46
like to do is to convince people because we think the arguments are right.
8:56
So it was the smirk on her face that did it for me. She
8:58
knows full well the power of the whips and what they actually do. But
9:03
if our viewers and listeners are not convinced today, let's have a look at
9:05
a third clip from the BBC themselves about another whip within the Conservative Party.
9:13
Let's listen to what he has to say about how the system works. The
9:18
government. Whips build up dossiers of information, both political and personal, about
9:22
their flocks, and the whips also act as a kind of welfare agency for
9:26
MPs. One Tory whip claims they perform a thousand acts of unremarked kindness each
9:31
year for Tory MPs who face personal problems. Anyone with any center was in
9:37
trouble would come to the whips and tell them the truth. I've said,
9:41
Now I'm in a jam. Can you help? It might be debt,
9:46
it might be scandal involving small boys, or any kind of scandal which a
9:56
member seemed likely to be mixed up in. They'd come and ask if we
10:01
could help, And if we could, we did, and we would do
10:05
everything we can because we would store up brownie points. If I mean that
10:13
sounds a pretty pretty nasty reason, but it's one of the reasons. Is
10:18
if we can get a chap out of trouble, then he'll do as we
10:20
ask forevermore So, there we have a whip calmly talking of about blackmail,
10:28
the blackmailing of members of parliaments in order to get them to do as they
10:31
want. The key question is who is they. Let's just have a look
10:35
at this. We'll have to save the detail for another day, but of
10:39
course we need to have a look at where the money comes from for the
10:41
parties because invariably the people who fund the parties control the party system at all,
10:50
control the whole party system, so they have the power base and we
10:54
need to follow this through. But we'll come on to that for another day.
10:58
We'll just end this segment with this little video clip of Rishi talking about
11:03
Israel. I want to thank you for your solidarity or clear unwavering support from
11:11
the minute this war began. I think the fact that you came to Israel
11:16
tells us a lot. I said to President Biden yesterday that there's one thing
11:20
more heartwarming than standing with Israel, it's standing in Israel. And the fact
11:26
that you came here to do that is a very strong statement of support,
11:31
which we deeply appreciate. So I can now ask the key question, you
11:37
know, to whom does Rishi own loyalty the people of UK or Israel?
11:41
Are we to know? And if we're concerned about the situation with the Tories,
11:46
then it's the same with labor and know what to call from the standard.
11:50
Here. One of the main reasons why Kirstalma is standing firm on Israel
11:56
his family. The labor leaders resolution will be stiffened by having a Jewish wife
12:03
and relatives. So what is the truth? What do these people really believe?
12:07
We have no idea, but of course we see powerful people in the
12:11
wings and while they always our friend, Mark, let's bring you in.
12:16
I've stolen a little bit of your time today, but I thought it was
12:18
important to get that information out about politics in UK. But we can't always
12:24
trust Israel. Very crue. Good day, Diane and Brian. I'm going
12:33
to get into a little bit of history here, but it actually has a
12:35
lot of current relevance, and this is about Israel's deliberate attack on a nable
12:41
ship, the USS Liberty on the eighth of June nineteen sixty seven. So
12:46
that anniversary just passed. I wanted to get it recognized this year. There's
12:50
a little clip here on this slide that is taken from some of the communications
12:56
of Israeli's of Israel's military force is on that fateful day in the Mediterranean Sea
13:03
off the Sinai peninsula. But sir, it's an American ship. The reply,
13:07
never mind hit her and let's move on from there. And what we
13:13
have is some basic facts. This is my own writing that I got from
13:16
various sources. On the eighth of June sixty seven, during the Six Day
13:22
War, without warning, Israeli jets and torpedo boats launched an attack on the
13:26
USS Liberty. Thirty four US sailors were killed. Another one hundred and seventy
13:31
one sailors were wounded in this attack by Israeli aircraft and torpedo boats. A
13:37
CIA memo which I had never seen before. I just found it yesterday,
13:41
by the way, which was not declassified until two thousand and six June of
13:46
that year, correctly noted that Liberty was a naval technical research ship, but
13:50
falsely claimed the attack was a case of mistake and identity. The very same
13:56
memo states that two Israeli Delta wing jet fighters orbited and surveyed the clearly flagged
14:03
Liberty at nine to fifty am local time near the Sinai Peninsula, but did
14:07
not attack the ship until over five hours later in broad daylight with clear weather,
14:13
so they knew full well what it was survivors such as Phil Turney knew
14:18
firsthand, and they and Dave Gaheri and other honest investigators determined that this was
14:24
an Israeli attempt to sink a US vessel as a false flag slash provocateur operation
14:31
to try and draw the US into Israel's war with Egypt. And here's the
14:35
key part. This is very interesting. The war ended with Israel in control
14:41
of the Gaza Strip, the Golden Heights, the West Bank, and East
14:45
Jerusalem. So you might say the dials were preset Brian in terms of what's
14:50
going on in Gaza now, at least to a degree because of this event.
14:54
Now, this next slide shows Phil Turney, one of the key survivors.
15:00
I met him and spoke alongside of him at a conference in Sageen,
15:03
Texas in twenty eighteen, and he had just put out this book with Dave
15:09
Gaherry called Erasing the Liberty, and another survivor called it the most detailed book
15:16
on the Liberty I have ever seen. And it's the true story of innocence,
15:20
murder, and betrayal of the most decorated ship in US Navy history.
15:24
Get that hidden for well over fifty years and I'll mention before we, I
15:30
believe, listen to a short musical ballat about the Liberty. I'll mentioned Brian
15:33
that there was a call finally made to the Liberty to get help, and
15:39
jet fighters were on their way across the Mediterranean and they were called back by
15:46
President Johnson. They were literally called off to defend the liberty, and Robert
15:52
McNamara, the Secretary of Defense, a higher up at the Pentagon anyway at
15:56
that time, also concurred to call off that assistance to protect the liberty.
16:02
A very disgraceful thing. And the US government doesn't really recognize at all Israel's
16:08
true responsibility in this, and to this day, Congress wants to bring Prime
16:15
Minister net and Yahoo out of Israel and have him speak to Congress where they'll
16:19
give him constant standing ovations despite what's been happening in Gaza, the massive killing
16:25
by the Israeli army against largely innocent Gosins, of course, many of whom
16:30
most of them have nothing to do with Hamas and Jimas is not an organized
16:34
army anyway, not a mechanized army like Israel in any way, shape or
16:37
form. So for Congress to do that now with such a moral breach is
16:42
pretty unconscionable in most people's eyes. But anyway, if americansnew dot org mentioned
16:49
real quick is another really interesting website that can give a lot more details about
16:53
the massive aid that the US has been giving Israel all along. But the
16:57
USS liberty to this day, to a larger extemp Brian is still a cover
17:02
up. So back to you, Mark, thank you very much. I'm
17:06
going to hold the little music clip until extra time. We're going to be
17:10
talking about this segment more in UK column Extra, but I'll hold that clip.
17:18
Let's just finish off ast segment on UK politics. And of course I
17:22
wanted to flag up with the audience the fact that we don't even know to
17:26
whom Keir Starmer is actually loyal. It may be Israel, maybe it's a
17:32
completely different set of people. Let's hear what he had to say about Davos,
17:38
and let's just ask you quickly, you have to choose now between Davos
17:41
or Westminster. Davos why because Westminster is too constrained and you know it's closed
17:52
and we're not having meaning once you get out of Westminster, whether it's Tavos
17:56
or anywhere else, you actually engage with people that you can he working with
18:00
in the future of Westminster just a tribal shouting play. So he's not going
18:08
to set to and clear up the mess that's politics prodish politics in Westminster and
18:15
make it work. He's simply going to walk away to his rich friends in
18:18
Davos and play with that team of people. So what he's really saying is
18:23
absolutely no loyalty to UK whatsoever. And it's in his own words. But
18:30
if we really want to understand the power base around politicians in UK and indeed
18:34
other places in the Western world, let's have a look at this clip going
18:38
back to the UK column some years ago where we're talking about where Mike Robinson
18:44
is talking about the remembrancer. All right, but when you go and look
18:48
at the City of London website and actually read what it says here, the
18:53
current Remember is Paul Double. The Remember is one of the city's for law
18:59
officers and the office is responsible for the maintenance and protection of the city's constitution.
19:03
It is the city's parliamentary agent and the parliamentary agent for the Honorable the
19:07
Irish Society, and the City's Chief of Protocol. The Office was created in
19:11
fifteen seventy one. In its early years it was closely allied to the monarch
19:15
and the Court, and this is reflected in some of its functions today,
19:19
which include liaison between the City and the royal households. The Office acts as
19:25
a channel of communication between Parliament and the City, so it's a channel of
19:27
communication between Parliament and the city. In the contemporary context, this means day
19:32
to day examination of parliamentary business, including examination of and briefing on proposed legislation
19:38
and amendments to it. So the Wikipedia article says that they get no rights
19:42
to look at legislation before it is made public. Yet the website says that
19:48
they get to examine parliamentary business, including examination of and briefing on proposed legislation
19:53
and amendments to it, regular liaison with the select committees of both houses,
19:59
and contact with officials and government departments detailing with parliamentary bills. Liaison is also
20:04
maintained with the City Office in Brussels and other members states permanent representations in relation
20:11
to draft EU legislation. So here we see the relationship between the City of
20:15
London, which is the most corrupt organization or at least place on the planet
20:23
perhaps, and its relationship with parliamentary legislative process in Britain, but not just
20:30
in Britain, in the European Union as well. So there we are the
20:36
City of London direct influence even before Parliament has made decisions. It's they're influencing
20:44
what happens in the best interests of the financial interests of the City of London.
20:48
Let's have a look at the second part of that clip and Lucas in
20:52
twenty thirteen called for the remembrancor to be expelled from the House of Commons,
20:57
and she wrote to John Burker, who's the Speaker, asking him to consider
21:03
removing the remembrancer from the floor of the House and to end the remembrances privileges
21:08
to view legislation during the drafting process. The House of Commons Library then advised
21:15
that the remembers privilege access to the House of Commons is not given by legislation,
21:19
is under the total control of the Speaker. But the Speaker has done
21:23
absolutely nothing to remove this insidious lobbying. So it couldn't be more clear who's
21:33
pulling the strings of power. Well, of course, is the people who
21:36
control the money, either through the global business interests of the City of London
21:42
and or by the people who fund the parties themselves. But just to end
21:47
this clip, I want to say to the audience once again, if you
21:49
can't understand what political words or statements mean, this is particularly important as we
21:56
run up to the election. Troy considering them in Lawyer to the concept that
22:00
the words mean the exact opposite of what they appear to mean, or try
22:07
considering the words in Lloyd of the concept that we're being attacked by our own
22:11
government. While in the segment there and Diane, let's bring you in because
22:18
you're talking about the subject of well truth and facts. Yes, thanks Nick,
22:25
Brian, everyone involved today's show. I wanted to start out by saying
22:30
that in the last few weeks since we've launched UKC Verify, we've put out
22:34
calls for viewers to potentially suggest things that we could fact check anything that's in
22:41
the mainstream media, mainstream news. So here's one that I received last week.
22:45
There's been a lot of activity in my Twitter account, which again please
22:47
follow me at DIA and e uk C Diane UKC. We're asking for people
22:53
to give me things that they would like to have fact checked. So here's
22:56
one that came up last week saying a great thing to vary would be the
23:00
claim that COVID jabs saved millions of lives, particularly as they are now finally
23:04
made, they're totally safe. Claim is indeed, at best extremely tenuous.
23:08
They are now even saying vaccine safety is a relative concept. And he's retweeted
23:12
here a post from doctor Claire Craig. So I thought about this for a
23:18
couple of days. How can I address this? And then I sort of
23:21
came across a few pieces of academic research. This is a pre print study,
23:26
so not fully periviewed yet, based on UK data of thousands of children
23:30
around the effectiveness of COVID vaccination and children adolescents. And what I said was,
23:34
well, this doesn't necessarily prove or show us that they are totally safe,
23:40
but it does show in this study, based on thousands of children here
23:44
in the UK, that children who have been inducted are more likely to need
23:47
hospitalization. And I also found a couple of more recent studies, including things
23:52
that have been in the mainstream press, which so this is starting to go
23:55
mainstream here. Now this was in the Telegraph last week, and this is
23:59
the original pace if you want to see the original source that they cited seeing
24:03
COVID vaccines may have helped fuel a rise in excess deaths. And again that
24:08
paper from BMJ Public Health, a British medical journal. Public Health as a
24:11
major, huge academic journal. And this is using the Our World and Data
24:17
data set. And I would encourage viewers to go play with this data set
24:21
Our World and data. It's something that i''ll be covering here in just a
24:23
minute as well that I went to play with. But anyone can access this
24:26
data. There's a data explorer. You can look at a lot of different
24:30
factors to see what has influenced things throughout the last few years. And someone
24:37
that I've been in contact with recently on Twitter and privately is Professor Sander vander
24:41
Linden. He is a psychology professor of social psychology I believe, at the
24:47
University of Cambridge, and he's well known in mainstream media and so on for
24:52
producing these books around tackling this information, how do we fight this information?
24:57
And I can tell you that he is i would say potentially more in line
25:02
with Marianna Spring than he is with UK column. So He posted this a
25:06
couple of days ago that he has a new paper that he co authored in
25:08
the Nature Journal with an all star team saying that misinformation poses a bigger threat
25:15
to democracy than you might think. One of the claims that he has in
25:18
this paper or his co authors might have made, is COVID vaccine. COVID
25:22
vaccines have saved millions of lives. So I decided to ask him the question
25:27
publicly, because I'm happy to engage in a debate with anyone. Why did
25:34
you make this claim? Where is the evidence that you got from this?
25:37
And so I did a really quick search on the our world with data COVID
25:41
Data Explorer, and I found just sort of choosing three different nations, high
25:47
income countries and through low income countries, and to show that the COVID deaths
25:52
never really existed in the poor countries. So what exactly is going on there?
25:57
And he replied to me with a couple of papers, and he said,
26:02
oh, there's dozens of studies there, tons of studies, dozens of
26:04
scientific evaluations have concluded this. And he's got a couple of links that he
26:10
included to academic papers from the last couple of years, which I would say
26:15
have their own bias to them, for example, saying that you know it
26:21
knits as well. In these papers, for example, and this is a
26:22
quote from one of the papers, vaccines had less effect in low income countries
26:26
due to inadequate access, emphasizing the importance of global vaccine equity. So they
26:33
didn't have access to the vaccines, but they almost had no COVID related deaths
26:37
potentially, And that that's just that's a potential thing that I looked into further.
26:41
Can we really say that or can we not say that? But that
26:44
was the first thought that came into my head. And then of course the
26:48
other data from the other papers reports from the who so is that presenting bias
26:52
or what is that doing? So once I went into the data myself and
26:56
I started to play with this data explore high income countries do have more so
27:03
called invertedas COVID deaths. Low income countries had essentially no so called COVID deaths
27:10
at all. And you can see here on the graph as well as in
27:14
the numbers that the chart at the top shows the high income countries with the
27:21
so called confirmed COVID deaths and the one at the bottom with the low income
27:23
countries has almost no change in deaths at all whatsoever per million people. And
27:30
you can also see the percentage if you look at the bottom high income versus
27:33
low income country there's quite a quite significant change in percentages and numbers in the
27:41
high income countries and no change at all in the low income countries. So
27:45
what does this mean? Well, if we go to the next slide here,
27:49
I'm just asking the question why at this point we have high income countries
27:55
had higher vaccination deaths and vaccination right rates and more deaths. So why is
28:00
that. You can look at the high income versus the low income countries here
28:06
again, the high income countries had obviously, as we know, a much
28:10
higher vaccination rate, which Professor Sander Vanda Linden admits himself, But we also
28:15
had higher confirmed deaths on a sort of daily basis in the high income countries.
28:21
So I would just like to ask the question here, why do we
28:25
think that is? Well, can we answer that or not? That's that's
28:27
sort of still up in question. But we do know for a fact that
28:30
the high income dests were higher than the low income debts for whatever reason.
28:36
Just a couple of other points on vaccine injuries in Japan. There has been
28:41
there was a quite substantial protest that went on and Japan has been in trouble.
28:45
This was from last year. I think this was covered on UK colin
28:48
previously suspected COVID vaccine deaths were reported as COVID deaths. I believe this was
28:55
reported last year on n h K and when I found an Arab News Japan,
28:59
I had to search a while to find a reliable source for this to
29:03
show that this was in fact the video of what they said. They were
29:07
saying that there was a rally in Tokyo around the COVID health regulations from the
29:11
w h O, which we've covered last week and several weeks before, especially
29:15
with Mark. So I would just like to show a quick video clip which
29:18
I received from News Japan, which is a reliable source, covering part of
29:23
that protest. To you say thank you. So we're starting to see there
30:19
some public admission from public figures of what has happened in Japan. And if
30:25
you look at the r world and data from Japan itself as a particular country.
30:29
I didn't put it in the slides, but if you look at it
30:32
yourself, you'll see some quite substantial numbers and vaccination rates and depths and so
30:37
on in Japan and specifically also on this issue. I saw this tweet which
30:41
I shared on my Twitter, and I'm very, very sad that this has
30:47
happened. I was furious when I first saw this on Friday, but I
30:49
shared it and it's had thousands of views, which I guess is good at
30:52
least that the word is getting out that this has happened. This is a
30:56
letter from the NHS talking about someone who had a applied for what they call
31:00
a vaccine damage payments. I know we like the word injury better than damage
31:06
because damage is a terrible word. But basically they said that that your claim
31:11
of this person, who have kept anonymous by removing the identifying information, is
31:15
that they do not believe that their claim meets the criteria for a vaccine damage
31:18
payment because in their opinion, the vaccine did cause the disability in question based
31:25
on the balance of probabilities. However, whatever the damage was, as they
31:30
call it, has been assessed as less than severe and severe disablement based on
31:37
some things that happened in the past, previous measures and so on, means
31:41
that a vaccine injury would have caused the person to be at least sixty percent
31:45
disabled, and since they could be let's say fifty nine percent disabled, the
31:51
claim has therefore been rejected and the vaccine injured person is is not able to
31:56
access the claim or the payment. And I saw this in a absolutely furious
32:00
so someone else sent me a link to a freedom of information request which anyone
32:06
can see. This is public information around this particular payment scheme, and this
32:15
was as of the second of April twenty twenty four. Over at the eleven
32:19
thousand claims have been received, about five thousand have been notified of an outcome.
32:23
Only one hundred and sixty eight of those have been able to receive a
32:29
payment. Most of them were astrosenica. Over four thousand were unsuccessful because they
32:36
did not believe that the vaccine caused the injury, and others were unsuccessful for
32:42
other reasons, for basically saying the vaccine criteria didn't meet causation. And I
32:47
would say as well that with the our world and data that I showed that
32:52
something that we do need to remember in science and research is that correlation does
32:55
not imply causation. So although we can see what we saw with the statistics
33:00
through those bits of data. We do have to be careful about the claims
33:04
that we can make, but some of this data is very difficult to repute.
33:08
If anyone wants any more information on this, we have covered this in
33:12
the past one uful column with Peter Todd and some other individuals who have been
33:15
vaccine injured. Peter has some really great information about the sixty percent disability and
33:22
other things. So there's interviews and other things from previous news segments that you
33:27
can see. And I would also refer you, of course, as I
33:30
always do, to Debbie Evans, who has covered in detail the issues around
33:34
the MTI and the inmitary avoiding the issue of vaccine deaths. And as we
33:38
know, they have canceled their last meeting with Dame June Rain as the CEO.
33:45
We don't know why, but we do know that in her resignation letter,
33:47
Dame June Rain said it has been an honor to lead an agency which
33:52
has patient safety as its top priority. Brian, yes, be not a
34:00
lot more to come out about the MHRR and what they were doing at the
34:04
time, but I just want to say very quickly with respect to the payment
34:08
of of compensation for injuries. Of course, the independent analysts who are looking
34:15
at causation are not able to see the true amount of data because that's been
34:22
withheld from the public. So people are being penalized twice, they get the
34:28
damage of the vaccine, and then of course their case can't be assessed properly.
34:32
That's that's how I see it. Did you want did you want to
34:37
mention Peter Todd the Peter Todd interview with Yees, just to say that that's
34:45
that's up there and as well as there's If you just search for Peter Todd
34:47
on the UK Carlum website, you'll find this interview with him, as well
34:52
as others that has kind of I think peted some conversations with Debbie and other
34:57
vaccine injured people and these sort of horrible up that they've faced. It's absolutely
35:01
an outrage. So I would encourage you from more information to follow his Twitter
35:06
page as well, because he has a lot of information to share with people
35:09
out there who might be vaccine injured. I'm looking for claims that they can
35:14
make or what they can do about their situation. Okay, excellent, Thank
35:17
you very much for that, and as always, a huge Thank you to
35:21
all the people who do support the UK Column because it's monthly members that keep
35:25
us going and we do want to expand UK Column. A lot of people
35:30
asking us to do more work, more research, produce different material. We'd
35:36
like to do all of this, but to do that we need more financial
35:40
backing. So if you're already supporting us, thank you very much. Indeed
35:45
you're wonderful people. If you're watching us and you're thinking, well, should
35:49
I or shouldn't I donate to the UK Column, please do and allow us
35:52
to grow. The material we're putting out is overwhelmingly to be shared and we're
35:59
very happy for you to do that. Please give us some form of acknowledgment.
36:02
We just highlight that we still can't get into our Facebook account at the
36:07
moment we are trying to work on that. You can also help us by
36:10
making a purchase via the UK Column shop. That would be really excellent,
36:15
and to highlight that. Sunday, the sixteenth of June at ten am,
36:21
we've got UK Column Live virtual conference where the UK Column team are going to
36:28
be talking to our audience about how we got going, what made us do
36:32
what we did, and what we are still doing. Today and where we
36:37
want to go in the future. So if you'd like to get to know
36:39
us, better join us on Sunday, sixteenth June at ten am. Now
36:45
we've also got an interview coming out tomorrow which is Debbie talking to James Ruguski,
36:52
and of course he'll be updating things in connection with the World Health Organization
36:58
before we move back to Mark, just like to say I received a little
37:01
an email which I couldn't get into the news formerly, but it's from Vote
37:07
Cornwall Independence. It's saying do you know who to vote for in Cornwall?
37:12
And then there's a list of those who are warning about what the World Health
37:15
Organization is doing. And these are people that don't want more pandemic lockdowns,
37:22
mandatory jabs, they're not convinced about the climate change agenda, they're unhappy with
37:28
immigration and they've got lots of common sense. So these people who are effectively
37:34
standing as independents are Angela Rayner from Independent Yuki, Pete Lawrence Independent Truro and
37:42
Falmouth. Sarah Farrell who's the Heritage Party North Cornwall, Rowland O'Connor Reform UK
37:49
North Cornwall, Graham Cowdery Heritage Party Southeast Cornwall, Roger Turrant, Tarrant a
37:55
bigger pardon Reform UK Camborn and Red Ruth and Jason Saunder's UKIP Penzance and Oives
38:04
and Sillies, and it ends saying, I hope that's cleared it up,
38:07
but great to see people standing up in their own name to challenge the established
38:15
parties. Mark, let's bring you back on and you're going to take us
38:19
into the world of open ai, Brian, with Bilderberg still in our rear
38:27
view mirror and not completely out of sight. You'll see the connection here in
38:30
a few minutes. Open ai is really ascending right now, becoming more and
38:37
more hardwired into our society. This Reuter's headline Open AI Science content deals with
38:44
the Atlantic and Box Media, and this is part of a much broader marriage
38:49
between open ai and the mass media cartel. We'll move on from there and
38:54
I won't get into all these slides in total detail, but there are some
38:59
important elements. Sam Altman, who will learn about a little more in a
39:04
minute. He's leading the open AI revolution, you might say, and he
39:07
has signed content and product partnerships with the Atlantic and Box Media, helping that
39:14
AI firm to boost and train its products. Why is this important? Their
39:17
agreements with The Atlantic and Box come on the heels of several media firms signing
39:23
similar deals. Get that given their giving open ai access to their news content
39:30
and archives to train AI open AI's large language models. That is, such
39:37
partnerships are not only crucial for the training of these AI models, they can
39:42
also be lucrative for news publishers, which have traditionally been denied a slice of
39:47
profits that the Internet giants earned for distributing their content. And last week Open
39:53
Ai and this is a big one signed to deal with the massive media conglomerate
39:59
and Walsh set Journal owner news Corp. And let's learn a little bit more
40:02
about NewsCorp. More on news Corp, founded by our friend Rupert Murdoch's a
40:08
US based mass media and publishing company in Midtown Manhattan, operating across news media,
40:15
book publishing, and cable TV. News corps. Notable assets include Dow
40:20
Jones and Company, which publishes The Wall Street Journal, and then on your
40:23
side of the pond, there's News UK, which publishes The Sun and The
40:28
Times and also The Sunday Times and also the book publisher Harper Collins. Overall,
40:32
revenue in twenty twenty three for News Corp nine point eighty eight billion and
40:37
over in the landdown Under, NewsCorp owns many news outlets and controls more than
40:45
one hundred and fifty major and smaller newspapers, weeklies and dailies across the whole
40:50
of Australia, almost total saturation there. So it's a really big company getting
40:54
into AI. There's a lot of ramifications, That's what I'm getting at now.
40:59
Moving out from there, news Corps chief American assets, and there's complexities.
41:04
I won't read the whole thing. Those that want to freeze the slides
41:07
can read more about the maneuvering and chess moving, you might say, of
41:10
these media giants and who buys what and who owns what. But in terms
41:15
of US based news media, News Corp also owns the New York Post,
41:21
Barons, MarketWatch, Investors, Business Business Daily, Private Equity News, Dow
41:27
Jones Newswires, Dow Jones Indexes, and get this, ten percent ownership of
41:31
the Dow Jones Industrial Average itself and about seven other Dow Jones entities. Very
41:39
interesting. A lot of media power there, a lot of diversity, you
41:45
might say, within their company. Moving on. From there, we have
41:51
some other important matters to cover. This is just a sundry item. News
41:53
Corp was actually born there in England seventeen eighty five. Their story began there
41:59
the day ly Universal Register, later renamed The Times was launched. So it's
42:04
an iconic brand, they say, with a legacy that spans centuries. Moving
42:07
on, This is the official News Corp press release on the deal with open
42:13
Ai. They're calling it a landmark deal, a multi year global partnership.
42:16
In fact, so NewsCorp and OpenAI announced as of May twenty second, a
42:23
historic multi year agreement to bring news Corp news content to open ai. Through
42:29
this partnership, open ai has permission to display content from News Corp material mass
42:35
ads News Corp mast ads in response to user questions and to enhance its products,
42:40
with the ultimate objective of providing people the ability to make informed choices based
42:45
on reliable information they say and news sources. Open ai will receive access to
42:52
current and archived content from news corps major outlets, including The Wall Street Journal,
42:59
Baron's Marco Watch, Investors' Business Daily FN, and The New York Post,
43:02
The Times, The Sunday Times, The Sun, The Australian outlets.
43:07
I mentioned many many items there. In addition to providing content, News Corp
43:13
will share journalistic expertise to help ensure the highest journalism standards are present. They
43:20
say across open AI's offering very interesting stuff context Vox Media owns The Verge and
43:28
Vulture, lots of offbeat and avant garde publications. There's websites, there's streaming
43:34
services, so boxes a bit different than some of the others. And Box
43:38
is saying that open ai will help the company develop its products for consumers and
43:42
advertising, etc. Open Ai will get access access to Box Media's archives and
43:49
so on. Separately, The Atlantic, the globalist rag that's been around way
43:53
too long, also announced a similar deal giving open ai access to the publisher's
43:59
content. The Atlantic set is creating quote an experimental microsite called Atlantic Labs that
44:05
will also pilot open ais tech, helping the media firm explore how open ai
44:10
can drive development of new products and features. And I think we have a
44:15
quote coming up here. Well, first we have a little description of sam
44:19
Altman and what is open ai and what is chat GPT? What is that
44:23
bot? Well, Samuel Harris Altman, Brian is thirty nine years old.
44:28
He's an American entrepreneur and investor, best known as the CEO of open Ai
44:31
since twenty nineteen, considered one of the leading figures of the AI boom.
44:37
Open ai says it's an AI research and deployment company quote unquote. Our mission
44:43
is to ensure that artificial general intelligence, which is a common phrase now,
44:47
not just artificial intelligence, but artificial general intelligence, and that means what they
44:52
see as AI systems generally considered to be smarter than humans, benefits all of
44:59
humanity unquote. And chat GPT is a chatbot and virtual assistant developed by open
45:06
Ai and launched on the thirtieth of November in twenty twenty two. Based on
45:09
large language models, it enables users to refine and steer a conversation toward a
45:15
desired length, format style, level of detail and language. So there's some
45:20
interesting background, and we'll kind of start winding up and summarizing a little bit.
45:25
This is Nicholas Thompson, the CEO of The Atlantic, and he said,
45:30
quote there's a lot of fear in the media industry about partnering with tech
45:35
platforms, but I am absolutely convinced. He says that these deals can be
45:38
beneficial for whom we wonder if we've learned the right rules, structure them the
45:44
right way, and had our bets. That's what he had to say,
45:49
and going on from there a little bit more from Reuter's open ai to use
45:53
Financial Times content for training AI models. In another media tie up open AI's
46:00
official logo there the Financial Times as signed a deal it says here from Reuters
46:06
with open ai to license its content for the development of AI models and allow
46:10
this chat GPT to answer queries with summaries attributable to the newspaper. This latest
46:19
tie up is saying financial terms of the agreement are not disclosed. The latest
46:23
deal will help the startup enhance the chat gb T g b T chat bot
46:30
with archived content from the Financial Times, and the firms will work together open
46:35
ai and Financial Times to develop new AI products and features for Financial Times readers
46:40
and so on and so forth. So to keep going from there, this
46:47
is a brief summary that I wrote that is intended to be a longer Builderberg
46:53
longview article that I'll soon be submitting, like what I like what I submitted
46:58
last summer, late last summer looking at Bilderberg beyond the meetings. This is
47:02
the start of that article. One need not be overly suspicious. I wrote
47:07
to realize that the annual Bilderberg Meetings, the seventieth such meeting in seventy years,
47:12
recently concluded in Madrid, with AI heavily represented among its attendees. Attendees
47:17
apparently function as an incubator for mega trends that have a strong tendency to quickly
47:22
leave the conceptual realm and hardwire themselves into society. Case in point, just
47:29
as this year's Buildeberg gathering came and went, headlines were and still are popping
47:35
up frequently to announce that open Ai, a company owned by longtime Builderberg regular
47:39
Sam Altman, is making scores of deals with media companies that will enable its
47:45
chatbot to access the news content of those companies. Exactly what such partnerships will
47:51
mean in terms of how news is formulated and presented, and how journalists,
47:54
working journalists, and the legal landscape may be affected, that is not altogether
48:00
the clear yet, I wrote there, and continuing a little more, I
48:04
won't get into the whole thing. Those news organizations with more than a fleeting
48:07
linkage to Builderberg are Germany based Axel Springer, the parent company of the journal
48:14
Politico, which is influential on Capitol Hill in the US, The Atlantic Magazine,
48:19
represented at Bilderberg every year by former Washington postwriter An Applebaum. Of course,
48:23
the Financial Times, which is also tied into the global cities movement in
48:28
Chicago. Lamond, a major French newspaper, representative Builderberg several times, and
48:34
pres Media, a Spanish media conglomerate conglomerate excuse me, that also has popped
48:38
up at Builderberg. And winding down here, it's interesting to note that Openaibrian
48:45
OpenAI dot com is the website collaborated with Georgetown University and with Stanford to do
48:52
a study on disinformation. And here we thought that AI was going to be
48:57
largely a benevolent thing. Well, I looked at it a little bit that
49:00
there are a number of miscellaneous uses that anyone could find somewhat handy. It's
49:04
true, but the people developing it and the people making these media deals are
49:08
looking deeper at the disinformation issue. And we'll move on from there to explain
49:13
very briefly what that is. All of that and eventually funneled Brian through Cornell
49:19
University, which is in Ithaca, New York, and they came up with
49:22
this study generative language models and automated influence operations, Emerging threats and potential mitigations.
49:30
And what they're basically saying is they don't want AI to end up in
49:34
the wrong hands with disinformation change agents and online influence peddlers because they might contradict
49:42
the globalist party line. That's what they're saying. So they're burning the midnight
49:46
oil to try and prevent that from happening. And then this last slide,
49:51
it's worth noting and this sort of reflects a little bit of what Diane got
49:54
into. Maderna is also plugged in with open AI, and I can imagine
50:00
that I'll have some downside to it in terms of where that will lead.
50:04
So maybe we can talk about it a little more and extra Brian. But
50:07
that's how it's shaping up so far. Back to you, okay, Mark,
50:10
thank you very much. And of course, the immense power of those
50:14
organizations in not any media, but AI now being unleashed to support the political
50:22
parties fighting for election. Meanwhile, smaller organizations do their best without the power
50:29
of AI. Right, let's move back to Diane and you're having a look
50:35
at facts and non facts, reality and non reality. A fake Kate question
50:42
mark you muted? Diane? Oh sorry? Where is the fake Kate?
50:52
And where is the real Kate? And do either one of them exist at
50:55
this point? In twenty twenty four, This was from the cover of US
51:00
magazine from this month, asking how is she doing? And some other sources
51:06
have said quote never come back in the same way people saw her as before,
51:10
and I think is what it says. So what exactly is going on
51:14
with Kate? Well, let's get into that a little bit, and to
51:16
do that we are going to go back to AI. So, continuing my
51:22
coverage from last week on Fully Factored, can I say that Brian the AI
51:28
edition of Full Fact this week, because AI is something that Full Fact says
51:32
that they've been working on very hard for the last several years. I would
51:36
like to note as well that even though some of the new algorithms are out
51:40
there and processing power is faster than what it was in the past, that
51:45
the basic idea and the basic working of artificial intelligence started back with Alan Turing
51:52
in the nineteen fifties. This has been around for quite a while, and
51:55
so it's certainly not anything new in terms of a new paradigm or knew anything
52:00
else. There's just maybe some advantages to as I said, processing power and
52:06
algorithm design. But I want to go back to Tim Gordon, who I
52:09
briefly mentioned last week as a trustee of Full Fact and the co founder of
52:15
best Practice AI. Not too much on him, but just as a reminder,
52:20
he is tied in with the World Economic Forum. He wrote some toolkits
52:24
and some other pieces of information for how to look at how the WEF can
52:30
incorporate AI into what they are doing, and so I can't say that we
52:36
entirely trust him. He is, however, a trustee of Full Fact,
52:40
and again not to go into too much detail, but just to say that
52:44
this is an example of the toolkit that he was part of creating. He
52:47
was a contributor to this AI C suite toolkit empowering AI leadership. And honestly,
52:53
this is I think one hundred and twenty page pdf which you can find
52:57
online. And I tried to go into some basic understanding of what it was
53:00
trying to do and got really confused. It's really boring. It's all very
53:04
conceptual. But these graphics that I've got here are something that he contributed to
53:08
directly through best practice AI, for whatever it's worth. And so Google itself
53:15
has been doing a lot of funding of Full Fact and fact checking, and
53:20
there's a lot of examples of this on their website of how Google has given
53:23
the money to build the automated fact checking tools. They were included in Google
53:29
search results for a while, but they got rid of it because they realized
53:31
it was rubbish and wasn't really doing anything useful except maybe making things more complicated.
53:37
Twenty nineteen is the most recent time when I can see that Google donated
53:40
money to Full Fact, and it says here it was all part of winning
53:45
the AI Impact Challenge, just one of twenty winners out of over twenty six
53:50
hundred entrants, and they said what they're going to do with this money is
53:53
to work with experts to figure out how AI could transform factchecking at scale,
53:59
and to create and deploy and evaluate these tools. So what is Google involved
54:05
with now? Just we'll come back to Full Fact and everything for just a
54:07
minute. But what they've said here is that now they are funding twenty five
54:13
million dollars with an open call to use AI to accelerate progress and sustainable development
54:17
goals. So again, you know, is this really independent, is this
54:22
truly factual or is this in fact biased in some way? Well, we
54:25
can talk about that later. So going back to full fact AI, now
54:30
that Google has given them this money and they've done this work, they have
54:32
created a set of tools to alleviate pain points that we experience in the fact
54:37
checking process. And so what does it do. Well, there's a way
54:40
that you can sign up to test the full fact tools and you can apply
54:44
them yourselves. I will say a couple of weeks ago I signed up to
54:47
get access to the full fact Ai tools to play with them myself by saying
54:52
that I was a member of the media through UK column and for some streage
54:57
region, they have not given me access to those tools yet. I can't
54:59
pop imagine why. But these are the main steps that are identified, collecting,
55:04
monitoring data, identifying label claims, match the claims, real time checks,
55:07
and publish the results. That's the basics of what they say that they
55:12
are doing. So what can AI fact check? Well, that's an interesting
55:17
question. We here's something that came up in the the It was from the
55:23
Irish of the Irish regards from a few days ago, this letter from Kate
55:29
saying well, what is it that can be corrected? What is there?
55:34
You know she wrote this letter, it's full of errors. And we also
55:37
see as well that when in some of the mainstream media sources that talked about
55:43
this letter, both through the BBC and through UH, it was the Independent
55:46
where they either corrected her writing her if it was Kate's writing in fact,
55:51
we don't really know, but it was signed Colonel Catherine, but we don't
55:53
know UH, and so we have to wonder, you know, if it
55:58
was truly the Princess of Wales who that wouldn't somebody be involved in making sure
56:01
that she had correct grammar and spelling before it went out to the aras reguards.
56:06
We see here the user generated AI Kate. And we're going to watch
56:08
a video of this which has I want to say, has been claimed to
56:14
be a user generated AI because someone asked me if we can in fact fact
56:19
check the Kate cancer video, which was the famous one putout officially produced apparently
56:23
at BBC Studios, saying well there is a cancer video can be fact checked
56:30
as this happened? Does her our move and these kinds of things. So,
56:34
but let's see the definitely AI generated Kate video now, if we have
56:37
that please. On the twenty fifth of December twenty twenty three, I made
56:45
my last public appearance with my family at their saundering a mistake in Norfolk,
56:49
England. It has now been over five months and I have not been seen
56:52
in public, nor have I been seen with my children, who mean so
56:55
much to me. The photos and videos that have been released have been AI
56:59
manipular, including the audio which you are listening to. Please keep asking questions.
57:06
Something is not right and you might still be able to help. Thank
57:08
you. So again we know that that was an AI generated Kate that was
57:17
admitted. We have Photoshop Kate, which again was admitted by the Prince and
57:22
Princess of Wales, saying that she photoshopped this photo of herself and her children
57:28
that was the Mother's Day photo. And we see there that some people said,
57:30
well, this is this Vogue magazine cover that her face came from,
57:35
and so this has been spreading all over the internet with different memes and so
57:37
on. It's kind of making fun of the whole situation, unfortunately. But
57:42
what I want to say about fact checking videos in particular. Well, I
57:47
tried a couple of things. First, I wanted to test chet GPT,
57:51
which runs based on open Ai, and open Ai said well, first of
57:57
all, I asked her she did and they said, well, no,
57:59
she's dead. There have been no reports, official announcements, okay. And
58:02
then I asked is the cake cancer video real and said well, no,
58:07
it's Despite speculation and conspiracy theories, it is real and not AI generated.
58:14
And it goes on to explain it was produced by BBC Studios. We've looked
58:16
at high resolution versions, We've done a lot of analysis, and according to
58:22
these three different sources that they've cited here, one of them being Full Fact,
58:27
we cannot say that it was a deep fake or an AI generated video.
58:30
So I went to that Full Fact source and just clipped on that link
58:34
right there, And what did it say to us the next slide we can
58:37
see, No, we can't currently fact check for AI or deep fakes with
58:44
video. It's just not possible. We don't have the tools to do it,
58:49
even though Full Fact claims that they do have the ability to fact check,
58:52
and no, her ring does not vanish it's all totally fine, but
58:57
we actually know that the technology not yet exist check videos in particular for AI
59:02
or deep fakes. And I certainly don't think that full fact thing that they
59:06
can is a true statement, because as we know, the technology isn't there
59:10
for anyone to do it, no matter how much money you've been provided from
59:14
Google. This is actually from open ai itself or from an organization associated with
59:19
using the open ai technology. Right there it says unfortunately, we have no
59:22
reliable AI video detector at the moment, so there's a bit of a contradiction
59:28
here going on. And I think we can see here that we need to
59:31
maybe not trust full fact potentially. And here's a bonus UKC verify. This
59:37
was at the request of Debbie who kept asking me when I was working on
59:43
Kate and AI over the weekend. What about Carol Middleton? Is that true?
59:45
Because we've seen online or there was it she was in a car accident.
59:49
Well, this was on a fake website, a fake news website called
59:52
Birmingham Gifts or Birmingham Just however you want to say that. And if you
59:57
look at their ex account, we see that they have up thirty followers,
1:00:00
including as of yesterday, they were able to provide a detailed account of the
1:00:06
death of Michael Moseley, even though there's still a lot of speculation around what
1:00:09
really happened with his life, and if you look at other websites, it's
1:00:13
made all kinds of ridiculous claims. So please check your sources, go back
1:00:16
to the original source before you share anything or start spreading these ideas. Okay,
1:00:22
Diane, thank you very much for that. I think that brings us
1:00:25
up to the end of the news today, but thank you very much for
1:00:30
your segment there. Obviously, we're living in an increasingly difficult world working out
1:00:36
what is true and what's not true. UK column is going to do our
1:00:39
very best to try and make sure that the material we are publishing we can
1:00:45
verify, and we're going to challenge the organizations who say we should trust them
1:00:52
and full fact, personally I don't trust, but will continue to see what
1:00:57
they do. But Diane, thank you for your work on that, and
1:01:00
also Mark, thank you for the update on AI. As you were taking
1:01:06
us through that, I was simply thinking to myself, yep, these are
1:01:09
the huge global media corporations who are there supporting the politicians, trying to get
1:01:16
them re elected, and of course it's a huge weight of their publicity and
1:01:22
media streams, which can swing ballots, whether it's in the US or UK.
1:01:29
So to my mind, we need to get these media companies under control
1:01:35
and out of politics. But maybe more on that another day. So I'm
1:01:38
going to say to you both, thank you for joining joining me, and
1:01:43
also a huge thank you to our audience wherever you are in the world.
1:01:46
Thank you for being with UK Column, and a huge thank you to the
1:01:51
people who make this possible bi a monthly subscription. We'll leave it there.
1:01:55
We will be back in a few moments for UK Column Extra and we'll have
1:02:00
a look at that musical video in relation to Israel, and we've also got
1:02:10
other subjects to cover, so join us then thank you, Bye bye,
