- 0:08Good afternoon. It's Friday, the twenty sixth of April twenty twenty four,
- 0:11just after one o'clock. Welcome to UK Colin News. I'm your host Mike
- 0:14Robinson. Joining me today is Ben Rubin and Debbie Evans. Welcome to the
- 0:18program. Both. We'll get kicked off with some more serious stuff in the
- 0:22second but we'll just start with the Commonwealth being seventy five years old today.
- 0:26So this is the anniversary of the London Meeting, of the London Declaration which
- 0:31began it all, and they were very keen to tweet out this morning that
- 0:35this was their birthday. If you aren't aware of why that is significant with
- 0:40respect to globalism and global governance and so on, have a look at this
- 0:46article in the UK column website. Multiple paths lead to one world government and
- 0:51that will put it in a bit of context for you. I'll just read
- 0:54a couple of lines from this Martin Edwards saying that we live in a world
- 0:59of agenda politics. Absolutely clear. Governments come and go, but the agenda
- 1:03never changes. Policies left incomplete by one government are taken up with gusto by
- 1:07the next. Civil servants get involved in writing party manifestos. One of the
- 1:11most obvious of the agendas that our politicians are pushing is that of world government.
- 1:15The British Parliament is now subservient to so many foreign bodies and institutions as
- 1:19hard to keep kind. This is not a new agenda. It's been pushed
- 1:23since before the twentieth century by, amongst others, the rat pack of the
- 1:26Huxleys, H. G. Wells, Bertrand Russell and the like, and
- 1:30it finds his expression in a host of organizations think tanks, NGOs and committees.
- 1:34The most obvious example of those organizations is of course Julian Huxley's United Nations,
- 1:40and then he goes on to talk about the Commonwealth and its role in
- 1:45this whole thing. But if we put that back on on screen, I'll
- 1:47just highlight H. G. Wells in particular because we've said before most people
- 1:52think of him as a science fiction writer, but he has written many other
- 1:55books on less science fiction y type of topics, including this one, The
- 2:00Open Conspiracy What Are We to Do with Our Lives? Uh. They's had
- 2:04a couple of covers over the over the years. But we shouldn't forget that
- 2:07H. G. Wells is one of the finders of the Fabian society who
- 2:10want to mold the world. And just to highlight a couple of the the
- 2:14points from this book, the policy agendas that he was pushing in this book
- 2:19was the idea that we end the nation state forever, that we control human
- 2:23population, that we eliminate the notion that man is created in the image of
- 2:28God, and that Russia is a crucial target for assimilation into this whole agenda.
- 2:35WI. The Commonwealth has a role to play in this creation of global
- 2:39governmance, alongside the United Nations and so on, but it's particularly its particular
- 2:46focus is net zero of course. Oh yes, good afternoon everyone. Thank
- 2:52you so much to say about the Commonwealth. So I try to make this
- 2:53really brief because I think it's really important we highlight this that the common If
- 2:58you're watching in a Commonwealth country, and if you know someone that's in a
- 3:01Commonwealth country, please tell them to keep an eye on No Smoke the Green
- 3:06King, because this is really significant. The Commonwealth is huge. It's huge.
- 3:09It's home to a third of the world's population. It's two point five
- 3:15billion and fifty six countries. Sixty percent of the Commonwealth population are under twenty
- 3:21nine, so that's really important. They're very, very young. And of
- 3:23course we've got King Charles AstraZeneca Terra Carta wants to restore a third of the
- 3:30world to biodiversity. A third of the world is the Commonwealth. Kansuck superpowers,
- 3:37super Commonwealth. Perhaps we'll come on to talk a bit more in extra
- 3:40but a lot to say watch the Commonwealth. Yeah, absolutely, couldn't agree
- 3:45more. Thank you for that, Debbie. No Ben, you've mentioned anthropy
- 3:49before, but let's bring it up to did absolutely yes, So anthropy have
- 3:55sprung back into action. What is anthropy? Let's hear for from Anthropy founder
- 4:01John O'Brien. Anthropy is based on two principles, the first being that the
- 4:08future of our country is a shared responsibility. The second is dynamic stewardship,
- 4:14the fact that we are custodians of our great institutions, our natural landscape,
- 4:18our heritage, our laws, and much more. But if they're going to
- 4:21be fit for the rest of this center and beyond, then it's our job
- 4:25as custodians to shape them for the future. Anthropy affords the ability for you
- 4:30as leaders to join us in helping create that national agenda. Either through our
- 4:34national gathering or through our alliances around the country, do you consider helping shape
- 4:41the future of Britain through anthropy. So it's a big national conversation. It
- 4:48takes place every year at the Eden Project. We head that up at the
- 4:54start. You can see some images here people attending the event back in November.
- 4:59Lots of and discussions focused on all the hot topics of the day,
- 5:02and it actually describes itself as being inspired by the fusion of ideas. For
- 5:06a UK Davos referring to the World Economic Forum in January, a glass from
- 5:13Brief for Good and a national ted talk. Do you get an idea of
- 5:16the types of ideas that have been promoted here. It's also about breaking down
- 5:21barriers to collaboration across the public private sectors and what they call civil society.
- 5:27They use this term leaving your silo at the door a lot. This is
- 5:30all about breaking down the barriers between organizations and technical discipline. It's very common
- 5:35purpose this kind of language, and ostensibly it's all focused on inspiring a better
- 5:41Britain. That's what they get together to talk about. It's all about individual
- 5:44and collective action. They've got a nice little process where you shape your agenda,
- 5:47activate your sphere of influence, accelerate action through collaboration, and then amplify
- 5:54success to inspire others, which is their kind of infinity loop of pushing their
- 5:59ideas into the system. Very similar to be Corp and a bunch of these
- 6:03other organizations. And actually they had b corpor long to speak back in November.
- 6:10Now they're not doing their event this year and to be held next March
- 6:14because it clashed with Coop, so the Big Climate Conference, a lot of
- 6:17the same attendees. You get the idea. But this week they launched their
- 6:21Big Insights Report for twenty twenty four, which is about getting the mood of
- 6:26the nation. It came out on Tuesday, and I was sorry, actually
- 6:30was on Monday, and it was presented by John O'Brien who he just saw
- 6:34speaking, who's the founder of Anthropy, and Kelly Beaver, who's the chief
- 6:38executive of IPSOS, the global market research firm. And IPSOS has run a
- 6:45big national survey, quite a significant piece of work actually that they've been running
- 6:48over the past six months. There's a bit of a demographic breakdown here,
- 6:53but most importantly is to understand that they interviewed the Anthropists, so seven hundred
- 6:58and sixty five people who attended the in November, but then also the public
- 7:01at large as well. Sow two hundred and thirty seven people from the British
- 7:05public were asked the same question, which is essentially, what do you see
- 7:09as the single most important issue facing the UNA to day now. For the
- 7:14Anthropists, it was all about private change, pollution and the environment, as
- 7:18well as poverty and inequality and the lack of faith in politics and government.
- 7:26Entertainingly, they are completely misaligned with the UK public. The UK public doesn't
- 7:30care about any of that stuff. What the UK public is interested in is
- 7:33inflation and prices, a lot of the inflation driven by world economic foreign policies
- 7:39that form the backbone of what ANTHROWBI get together to promote and talk about.
- 7:44They're also interested in the NHS, hospitals and healthcare, actually having a functioning
- 7:47health sistrom that'd be quite good, and the economy. And also fourth on
- 7:51the list for the UK public, which didn't figure at all for the anthropists
- 7:57is immigration. So there's a total alignment between what these leaders who want to
- 8:01get together and talk about the future of the country are interested in and what
- 8:05everyone else is interested in, which the anthropists explain about as them having a
- 8:09more long term and strategic view of the issues as well, open to the
- 8:13fact that they are a completely different set of people to the British public and
- 8:18actually they're interested to completely misaligned. So despite that, they've actually set out
- 8:22and gone ahead and put forward these eight key priorities for the anthwer Free community
- 8:26to be promoting children and young people, investment in public health services, economic
- 8:33prosperity, cross sector collaboration, climate change and natural places, education reform,
- 8:39addressing inequality, political and electoral reform. All of that obviously sounds really cuddly
- 8:46and cozy and inoffensive, but when you dig into what they're promoting, it's
- 8:50basically all of the bad things that we talk about on the news here every
- 8:52single week. Whether that's citizens assemblies, pulling in the amounts of money into
- 8:56things like genomic genomic engineers, whatever it might be. If it's a world
- 9:01economic foreign policy, or if it's coming from places like the Blair Institute for
- 9:05Global Change, then it's going to figure in what amthathe are promoting. It's
- 9:09all the same stuff. Now they're building out the network across the UK.
- 9:15They want to expand their influence and accelerate adoption of their ideas and I would
- 9:18imagine actually just probably go meet some people who live outside the M twenty five
- 9:22that might be a good idea for this crowd. This was from the RSA
- 9:26event at the Royal Society of Arts on Monday where they did the launch.
- 9:31So they've got a whole big plan for getting out across the country. Again,
- 9:33very similar to BECLE, but this is much more focused on the big
- 9:37mainstream corporations as opposed to small business. And why are we concerned about all
- 9:41of this? Because obviously they're getting together to talk about the future of the
- 9:46country and they've got a real bright, optimistic vision for where we need to
- 9:48go to. But unfortunately it's all backed by corporate interests. And so you
- 9:54can see here a list of their sponsors. I won't go through all of
- 9:56them because there's so many, but the ones that I'll just focus on the
- 10:01founding partners of anthonvree e Y and Omnicoon Group. Who they I hear you
- 10:05ask, Well, first of all, they're World Economic Core Partners. Yeah,
- 10:09so e Y is a strategic partner of the World Economic Forum. Omnicom
- 10:15is also one of the top tier partners of the World Economic Forum, so
- 10:20they're intimately involved in the development and dissemination of policy for claud Swab and his
- 10:26mates. What else do we know about e Y So Ey's chief executive is
- 10:31on the steering board for the Council for Inclusive Capitalism, which is Linda Rothschild's
- 10:35philanthropic fund, a bit her big play around transforming the economic system. They
- 10:43also sit right at the heart of the public private partnership in the UK.
- 10:46You can see here this is the main EY LinkedIn page, basically boasting about
- 10:50the fact that they're facilitating the public private marketplace, the fascist marketplace, and
- 10:56that they've had people like Jeremy Hunt, Oliver David Kiss, Armor, Andy
- 11:00Burnham and many other mainstream politicians coming through. IVY also sponsored Tatis Media.
- 11:05By the way, this is a recent development. Who is a partner with
- 11:09the rock ChIL Foundation, which we talked about a lot over the past weeks.
- 11:13So they've got some interesting people surrounding them on the com. Another kettle
- 11:16of fish big on the COVID contracts actually, so they picked up three weeks
- 11:20before the lockdown was announced. One hundred and nineteen million pounds communications contract.
- 11:26So obviously the government pretty much knew what they were going to do all of
- 11:31the decision making. The prevarication that we heard about in the media, really
- 11:35that didn't exist. They'd already signed up the big ad agency. We took
- 11:39one hundred and twenty million pounds worth of money to come and propagandize us,
- 11:43and actually they then got another three hundred and twenty million just over a year
- 11:46later in April twenty twenty one. So that's nearly half a billion in taxpayer
- 11:54money going to Omnikon and John O'Brien, who is the founder of Anthropury heard
- 12:00from, also worked on the com while all that was going on, and
- 12:03actually he's recently left to focus purely on Anthropy. But in his leaving address
- 12:11that he put out on his social media channels, he basically said quite simply,
- 12:13if it hadn't been from the comp Anthropy would not exist. So this
- 12:18is all very much tied to corporate interests and as well as the uniparty interest
- 12:22We talked a little bit about the public private partnership. Well, at the
- 12:26end of last year, Anthropy received letters of recommendation from all three major party
- 12:33leaders in the UK sun Ax Starmer and Ed Davey. Do you remember Ed
- 12:37Davie? The lib Dems? What happened to them? We never hear about
- 12:39them anymore. Isn't that fascinating to see how that party just died away?
- 12:45Who else have they got on board? So Andy Haldane from the RSSA,
- 12:48So the event that they launched the report out was held at the RSA.
- 12:52Andy haw Dane Formative Economists of the Bank of England and he was also at
- 12:56the Connected Places Catapult and Restitch event. To these people just spend their lives
- 13:01going around to conferences as far as I can tell, including this guy,
- 13:03this next guy here, kamal armed We see the back of his head here.
- 13:07This is the only shot that they shared of him from the events.
- 13:11And kamal Armen is very closely linked with the Tortoise. Media editor James Harding
- 13:16also runs the News Movement, which is a link to My Life, My
- 13:18Say, the UK youth charity trying to steal our elections I spoke about last
- 13:22week and interesting the amen has just been appointed back to seeing the position in
- 13:26mainstream news at the Telegraph where he's going to be doing regular podcasting, So
- 13:31the anthropy crowd are very much front and center in the mainstream or media,
- 13:35politics, corporate interests and elsewhere. I'm really interested to see how this develops
- 13:41over the next twelve months. Yeah, and Ben, the potential common properse.
- 13:46I mean, I'd really like to know what the relationship is with with
- 13:48common purpose because there's the same type of language, the same type of agenda
- 13:52is exactly the same type of language. Yeah, yeah, thank you for
- 13:56that, Debbie. Let's come over to you and I and vaccine injuries and
- 14:01of course it's not all rosie in the UK in general, but actually it's
- 14:05even worse in certain non UK areas. It absolutely is, Yes, and
- 14:13I think everybody watching will find this quite shocking because the King and the globalists,
- 14:18and I say the King for a reason will come to that in a
- 14:20second. But the King and the globalists are pushing two, well three four
- 14:24huge agendas, but a couple of them vaccinations and another one, which is
- 14:28of course equality, diversity and inclusion is an inclusion the buzzword at the moment.
- 14:35Well, many are finding themselves far from included. In fact, they're
- 14:41excluded. And I'm referring actually to the channel Islands and to the Isle of
- 14:46Man, and it brings me on to BBC Guernsey actually because it's spring booster
- 14:52time and shockingly NHS England are reporting that seven hundred thousand people in one week
- 15:01have signed up or been signed up for appointments and in Guernsey and the Channel
- 15:05Islands it's exactly the same. However, the Channel Islands and the Isle of
- 15:11Man are different to the UK. Now I've found a little bit of video
- 15:16just to explain how it's different to the UK. Have a little look at
- 15:22this. These islands are part of the British Isles, but are not considered
- 15:26part of the United Kingdom. They are all part of the Common Travel Area,
- 15:30which allows them to freely travel to the UK. So who do they
- 15:33belong to them? Is it Ireland or maybe even France. They are instead
- 15:37formally referred to as Crown dependencies, which makes them a possession of the Crown.
- 15:43The King, as the ruling monarch, has the power to influence legislation,
- 15:46but the power is often not exercised without permission from the dependencies. They
- 15:50have their own parliament, government and laws making themself governing. They also have
- 15:54their own British passports with their island names on them. They even have their
- 15:58own separate support teams competing in the Commonwealth Games, so you can see they're
- 16:06very different. And if you want to go and find out more, you
- 16:08can go to the GOVERNMENTUK dot gov and look at the Crown Dependences Jersey,
- 16:14Guernsey and the Isle of Man fact sheet and if you go on further into
- 16:18the fact sheet you can see the constitutional relationship. So this is the Crown
- 16:22dependences of Baliwick, Jersey, Baliwick, Guernsey and the Isle of Man,
- 16:27and you can see that they're part of the UK, but they're self governing
- 16:32dependences of the Crown. They've got their own directive legislatives can never say that
- 16:37word I do apologize legislative and that the constitution, their constitutional relationship is actually
- 16:44maintained through the Crown, so the King heads the states for each island.
- 16:51And if you go to the Royal Family website you can see a bit more
- 16:55about Crown dependences and you can see that the crown dependences are not part of
- 17:00the United Kingdom but are self governing possessions, possessions of the British Crown.
- 17:07So let's go to the Jersey government website, just as an example, because
- 17:12we're going to be talking about the compensation scheme that we know is available.
- 17:18I'm not saying it's accessible, but it's available in the UK, so people
- 17:23with vaccine injuries can claim on the vaccine damage payment scheme for up to one
- 17:30hundred and twenty pounds, which is absolutely nothing. But in the Crown Dependencies
- 17:38there is they are not entitled to vaccine injury payment scheme. They're completely excluded
- 17:45from it. So the foy that they sent in they sent in a freedom
- 17:48of information and they were basically asking why why is it that Jersey has not
- 17:55set up a vaccination damage program for people damaged by the COVID jab not their
- 18:00own compensation scheme when Jersey was aware that the UK scheme would not cover people's
- 18:06vaccinations in Jersey. And the answer, quite shockingly was basically saying that in
- 18:12the event that the COVID nineteen vaccine results in Jersey residents suffering any kind of
- 18:18injury results of unforeseen side effects of the vaccine, it's possible that the Government
- 18:26of Jersey, as well as the manufacturers and supplies of vaccine could be liable.
- 18:32But however, in the absence of a scheme, there is nothing going
- 18:36on, so the National Vaccine Damage Payment scheme is not available to any of
- 18:41these people that are literally being just stranded, just left completely abandoned, with
- 18:49nowhere to go. So I just want to highlight an article that came up
- 18:53in the Jersey Evening Post and threats to sue from groups seeking vaccine damages.
- 19:00If we go on further into that article, you can see that they're just
- 19:03desperate and they're urging the government to make good otherwise they will sue. And
- 19:11Richard Rennolf's promise was well, I mean, honestly, he reassured Islanders apparently
- 19:17that yellow card schemes only records possible reactions. So far, twelve deaths have
- 19:23been recorded, as well as eight hundred and thirty nine adverse reactions, so
- 19:30you know, the situation is beyond awful. The yellow card scheme, they
- 19:34say, only reports possible reactions. So therefore Jersey is currently currently not covered.
- 19:44Neither is Guernsey and neither are the Isle of Man. But tonight there's
- 19:48a very important live zoom event at seven o'clock and everyone watching is invited to
- 19:57participate. There are limits places, but there are still plenty of places and
- 20:03this is to link up with Andrew Bridgean and a stellar a stellar panel of
- 20:10speakers really profess that Anger Stell Gleich, Dr Pierre Cory phenomenal. But we're
- 20:17going to speak to Danny in a minute. Who's leading the group, Danny
- 20:22Hervey. She's absolutely incredible and she's organized this tonight because they are absolutely desperate.
- 20:29She herself is vaccine breathed and I was fortunate enough to catch up with
- 20:33her earlier today. Have a listen to what she said. People really can't
- 20:38believe that the Channel Islands have just been left like this without any kind of
- 20:42access to any support whatsoever. And yeah, it's really shocking, especially when
- 20:47you consider that you know, we were supplied all the vaccines from the UK
- 20:51government, yet we because we're a Crown dependency, we've got no access to
- 20:55the vaccine damage payment scheme. So people have just been left completely out on
- 20:59their own and in the cold. It is shocking. Really, tell us
- 21:03where are we up to today in the Channel Islands? What's going on?
- 21:07Okay, So in the Channel Islands at the moment, the well, the
- 21:11last record was around eight hundred and thirty nine people who were adversely effected from
- 21:15the COVID vaccines and fourteen registered deaths ya the NHR Yellow Card scheme. Unfortunately,
- 21:23there's not as much visibility around the adverse events that we would like,
- 21:27but there are certainly a lot of people that are injured and they don't have
- 21:30access to any sort of support at all, which is the reason, yeah,
- 21:36that we're here today to talk about the event, and this is the
- 21:38event that we really want lots lots of people to register for, don't we.
- 21:42So we're putting out a plete to everybody that's watching now this event that's
- 21:47going on tonight at seven o'clock on Zoom with Andrew Bridgin and a stellar a
- 21:52stellar lineup of speakers. How do we register for this? Where do people
- 21:57go to? Danny is amazing event. We've been very lucky to organize it
- 22:02in a very short period of time and so there are a few spaces left.
- 22:04If people would like to participate or register, they can do They can
- 22:08email the vib js y at proton dot me email account. They can do
- 22:15that, or they can access as a registration link in the Facebook or the
- 22:21Instagram account which is under the same name vi ib js y and the link
- 22:27is also on our Twitter page and it will be in the show notes later
- 22:33on after that, and I think it was on in the show notes on
- 22:36wednes Cy's program as well. If you want to get access to it right
- 22:38now, go to the UK col website and have a look at Wednesday's news
- 22:42program. Thank you very much for that, Debbie. Now let's move on
- 22:47to migration and the Rwanda Bill Act as any is, because of course it's
- 22:51past. Rwanda has been turned into a safe country as a result of legislation,
- 22:56and so we are going to start sending over there. Last night on
- 23:02the question Time program on the BBC, British MP Chris Philp had this to
- 23:08say, Look, I think it's essential that we stop these boat crossings.
- 23:15There's a number of reasons. Firstly, they are dangerous. We saw five
- 23:18people dying earlier this week, including a young girl. Those aren't the first
- 23:22deaths. Secondly, these crossings are unnecessary because France is a safe country.
- 23:26Nobody needs to flee war in France. The people crossing are those who are
- 23:30able to pay people smugglers. They are almost entirely young men, and there
- 23:36are other people that we would want to welcome families, children, people with
- 23:41vulnerabilities, people that come from more dangerous places, as we have done welcoming
- 23:45people directly from Syria, Afghanistan and Ukraine, for example, So we do
- 23:49have to stop these boats which are dangerous and unnecessary. Now, the question
- 23:55was will the program the Ribanda plan actually and there are two examples, two
- 24:00case studies that I can give in support of the hypothesis that it will act
- 24:04as a deterrent. So the first one that he gave was the Australia situation,
- 24:11and I just wanted to mention that because he's really been pretty disingenuous here
- 24:15in suggesting that Australia solved their problem of boat migration by doing what Britain is
- 24:21doing here. So in fact, what happened was that they set up well,
- 24:25basically, they had been shipping people to New Guinea. Both of their
- 24:32main parties over there were following the same policy, and it didn't work for
- 24:36them. They ended up filling their migration centers in Papia in New Guinea very
- 24:40very quickly. They ended up having to bring migrants back to Australia and the
- 24:45issue only changed whenever they changed their attack and they set up Operation sovereign borders,
- 24:52and a key constituent of that is that they started turning the boat the
- 24:56boats back, so the boats were not able to arrive on show, and
- 25:00that has done much more to solve the problem for Australia. They basically have
- 25:04abandoned. They're shipping people out to other places at the moment, as far
- 25:10as the various coverage of the Australia situation goes. But let's just consider the
- 25:15numbers that we're talking about here. So if we have a look at irregular
- 25:21migrants, this is the latest statistics from gov dot UK fifty two five hundred
- 25:26and thirty irregular as they describe it, migrants June twenty twenty two to June
- 25:30twenty twenty three. Eighty five percent of those were and came over in small
- 25:34boats. So that's forty four, six hundred and fifty. Now, Chris
- 25:37Philp there said that these are mostly young men. I just make the point
- 25:41that one of the five people that died the day before yesterday was a young
- 25:45girl I think seven years old, So it's not entirely the case that it's
- 25:48mostly young men, but well I think they're the young men are perhaps coming
- 25:53in other ways but anyway, the point here is forty four thousand, six
- 25:59hundred and fifty people coming in this way. So we've put that back on
- 26:03screen again and just consider that number for a second, because how many places
- 26:07does the do the migration centers in Rwanda have? Well, the current number
- 26:12is still one thousand over five years, we haven't seen any update to that.
- 26:17They've been talking about doing some extra building, but it's not going to
- 26:19be a significant change from this. So this is going to have zero impact
- 26:25in fact on the migration situation, and we should just mention that just I
- 26:32can't remember when this November last year the BBC reporting that the Home Office were
- 26:36saying seventeen thousand of those migrants had already gone missing, and we have been
- 26:41reporting here at the UK column the number of child migrants that have been going
- 26:45missing over the years from the UK's care system. And then just to finish
- 26:49off here the question, the other point I would make is that the two
- 26:53guys that have been arrested for the five deaths that happened on Monday, whichever
- 27:00it was this week, we're both from Sudan and there is a massive war
- 27:04going on, a civil war going on in Sudan at the moment, it's
- 27:08very much being underreported in the Western media. It's pretty much going on without
- 27:12any comment. It's having a massive effect on displacement of people, and a
- 27:18lot of those people are coming to Europe and ultimately coming to try to come
- 27:22to the UK. But here's the point. Sudan is once again one of
- 27:27the countries where large amounts of Conflict Stability and Security Fund money go from the
- 27:33Foreign Comme, Wealth and Development Office. And this is just an example from
- 27:37a few years ago, support for local peace building and addressing gender based violence.
- 27:42This was money going into Sudan. What actually happens to it when it
- 27:45goes over there. There is quite a bit of evidence to suggest that,
- 27:51in fact, the comma if we just put that on screen again for a
- 27:53second, if you look at the title Conflict Stability and Security Fund, there's
- 27:57a comma between conflict and ability. I would argue that the evidence demonstrates that
- 28:03actually that comment is inappropriate. This money is going to stabilize conflict and to
- 28:10secure conflict around the world because that is what helps Britain's foreign policy agenda.
- 28:17And everywhere we see this money go, we see more conflict, not less,
- 28:22so that would be my final point in this Ben what are your thoughts
- 28:26on that and what are your thoughts on the Rwanda situation. So my thoughts
- 28:33on the Mirrwanda situation is that it's basically a trolling exercise on the part of
- 28:38the government. Is designed to enrage the left for people who are kind of
- 28:44pro immigration, pro refuge and it's designed to kind of plicate people who are
- 28:51concerned about illegal immigration, but without actually fixing the issue. And as you
- 28:56point out, there's absolutely no way the recommendation that this course of action is
- 29:00going to solve the problem such as it is. And also illegal immigration,
- 29:06as serious a problem as I believe it is for the country, is actually
- 29:10again it'sself a bit of a sidebarg given we've had one point five million legal
- 29:14immigrants coming to the country past twelve months. So this whole thing is a
- 29:18mess. And yet it's almost certainly by design, as you pointed out,
- 29:22yes, and as we pointed out on Wednesday's program with the food security segment,
- 29:27and as Harry Becaff was talking about in his YouTube video, the race
- 29:32in population happening as quickly as it is happening, and no signs of its
- 29:36stopping are going to have major implications for food security in the UK in the
- 29:41not too distant future. So anyway, if you like what the UK Column
- 29:45does and you would like to support us, we do need your support.
- 29:48Please head to support dot UK column dot org. There are options to help
- 29:51us out there. All the options are there. Your support very much needed,
- 29:55as I say, and thank you very much to everybody that does help
- 29:57out you, whether you're supporting us financial or not. Please do share material
- 30:03of find on the platform, especially UK column dot org and UK Column Extract
- 30:07Still Cold UK. You could pick something up at the UK Column Shop and
- 30:11there are plenty of items there for you to have a look at. Debbie,
- 30:15very briefly, your blog is not up just yet. It will be
- 30:19up immediately after the news program. But what are you covering this week?
- 30:25Well, it's an inverted world and when does sustainability become unsustainable? And shockingly
- 30:30seven hundred thousand people, as we said earlier, have booked for a COVID
- 30:33booster the autism stem cell here maybe I should have put a question mark behind
- 30:37that and cancer checks will come on to that in a minute. Okay,
- 30:42thank you, And a reminder of the science Beautiful Festival taking place when More
- 30:48endorsed twenty seventh to thirtieth of June. The promo code for ten percent of
- 30:52tickets UK COLUMN that is valid until midnight tonight. So you've got just a
- 30:57few more ours if you'd like to go to that, and we would very
- 31:00much encourage you to go to We will be there and hopefully we'll be saying
- 31:04a Lord as many people as possible. Also, we will be at the
- 31:08Standing of the Light Music Festival May twenty fourth to twenty seventh, and there's
- 31:12a problemo code for that as well, which is UKC ten, So get
- 31:17along to that one if you can as well. Now where does that take
- 31:21us? Then? Charity's website traffic surges following kids cancer diagnosis. Debbie an
- 31:29update on this. Yeah, well, you know, I just want to
- 31:33forget cancel culture for a minute. Let's look at cancer culture, shall we,
- 31:37Because cancer turbo cancer young people cancer levels and their cases are exponentially rising.
- 31:47One in two of us get cancer since when hunting cancer has been coined.
- 31:53Now, and how many cancer tests have you guys received through the door,
- 31:57you know, bowl tests or texts asking you to go for cancer tests
- 32:02and We mustn't forget that the cancer test originally came from a company called Grail,
- 32:07which was founded by Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates with a very small amount
- 32:13of money, and then it was rolled out in the UK and that's where
- 32:15now the UK appears to be the cancer capital of the world. And just
- 32:22recently we are super keen to get out cancer tests. You know, we
- 32:28don't have any staff to look after those that are sick, but we have
- 32:31plenty of staff to test healthy people for cancer. So the NHS website is
- 32:37just actually recorded that urgent cancer checks are topped to three million, and we've
- 32:44got lung trucks in supermarkets, we've got cancer awareness messaging on urin or mats,
- 32:50and of course we've got now royal messengers and the traffic has gone up.
- 32:54It's surged on cancer websites because of the Princess of Wales. We have
- 33:00three members of the royal family who are trusted messengers, what I would call
- 33:05trusted messengers. We have the Princess of Wales, we have the King,
- 33:08and we have the Duchess of York. And it's interesting that only today they've
- 33:14revealed that the melanoma mRNA injection is now is being rolled out for cancer,
- 33:22so this is very much a cancer agenda. This last week, the NHS
- 33:27Board meeting was released on YouTube and I want to direct everybody to that YouTube.
- 33:32I mean, it's really important that we watch these board meetings. Much
- 33:37was spoken about cancer, genomics and ADHD, which will come on to another
- 33:44time, but basically they were figuring very highly this announcement by the Princess of
- 33:51Wales. Cancer figures very highly on the NHS boardroom agenda. Here's a little
- 33:57snippet of the NHS Board meeting which has just been released, and I think
- 34:02it's probably a reminder that receiving a cancer diagnosis at any time can be hugely
- 34:08daunting. But by bravely speaking out in the way that the Princess of Wales
- 34:14has done about her diagnosis, we know that that will In fact, it
- 34:17already has encouraged others to do the same and by the simple act of raising
- 34:23awareness, that will save lives. So we've seen cancer information pages on the
- 34:29NHS website have had a huge spike in visits since the Princess's video message.
- 34:36I can tell you just checking the stacks there were two eight hundred and forty
- 34:38visits to the page on cancer in the twenty four hours after the announcement.
- 34:44That is a rise of three hundred and seventy three percent just over that twenty
- 34:47four hour period. So we know, we talk about it a lot of
- 34:52this board that the earlier that you can detect cancer, the better because the
- 34:58earlier that can be diagnosed means you have a higher chance of successful treatment.
- 35:04And so whilst we are diagnosing early stage cancer at record well, we're diagnosing
- 35:13more cancers to get it really precise at an earlier stage than ever, and
- 35:15survival rates are at an all time high. We do want to continue to
- 35:21encourage people to come forward when they are concerned about symptoms, not wait.
- 35:28So anyone with unusual, worrying symptoms should visit their GP. And it's just
- 35:32again a reminder of how important it is to take up screening appointments when offered.
- 35:40So the Trusted Royal Messengers appear to be doing their job and driving many
- 35:45many people to an already overwhelmed NHS. But just staying on health and giving
- 35:52everybody a quick update because I want to say that since we interviewed Dr Charles
- 35:57Hoff the other day, his interview can be found on the website The Ethical
- 36:01Doctor David versus Goliath Dr Charles Hoff. So many people have asked me,
- 36:07what's the update with his court appearance and his court date. He has sacrificed
- 36:13pretty much everything. He's even lost his whole town in a fire. And
- 36:15he has a legal defense fund page here. That money goes straight to his
- 36:21solicitors. It doesn't go to him, but if you would like to contribute,
- 36:25he would be super grateful. And he has sent us an update as
- 36:30to what is happening. He sent me in an email, so we've now
- 36:35got a little snippet of it. I think, Dear Debbie, the College
- 36:38has adjourned the April nineteenth hearing to decide on judicial notice. My lawyer has
- 36:43made a very compelling response to their application, and I can see that they
- 36:46are now delaying things to decide what to do next. They clearly are desperate
- 36:52to prevent the truth from coming out. There is no new date set for
- 36:54a hearing. We shall wait and see if they have any sense they will
- 37:00drop all the charges. But I don't think they have enough humility to do
- 37:04that. And then he went on to end by saying, fortunately, truth
- 37:08always wins in the end, and the longer they delay things, the more
- 37:12evidence appears in my favor. I will draw my lawyer's attention to the writ
- 37:15of mandamus. Thank you to Gene who sent him that. Thank you for
- 37:20mentioning it. Thank you again for your wonderful support. Keep up the good
- 37:23work, Charles Hoff MD. So thank you very much to Charles for giving
- 37:28us that update. And also thank you to Win who has written an amazing
- 37:34email to Dame June Rain. I won't read it out. I'll just let
- 37:37you have a look at the slides and have an idea of what is being
- 37:42written to the MHRA with regards to the data on vaccinated women, because we
- 37:47really need this data. June Rain is like another rat leaving the sinking ship.
- 37:52Please follow this wonderful example and get your letters, get your emails in.
- 37:59We need that data. Brilliant Debbie, thank you very much for that.
- 38:06This week is not on the anniversary of the finding of the Commonwealth,
- 38:10it's also it was Earth Day, ben so we should be very excited about
- 38:14that, shall we. Oh? Absolutely yes. It was Earth Day on
- 38:20Monday on the twenty second, and it's been Earth Day on the twenty second
- 38:22of April. Since nineteen seventy, when US Senator gay Lord Nelson instigated Earth
- 38:29Day and that led to the setting up of the US Environmental Protection Agency that
- 38:35same year, we've been doing wonderful work, I'm sure, And what better
- 38:38excuse to push out an extraordinary amount of climate propaganda than Earth Day. I'm
- 38:45going to show two examples just to give you a flavor of what we're seeing
- 38:50out here and how it's being used to influence behavior across the system. The
- 38:54first one comes here from the UN and our very own NESTA, So if
- 41:00you can see it's not just about climate, it's also about justice. It's
- 41:02all about diversity. It's about getting marginalized folks into the decision making process.
- 41:08It's about tapping to new types of funding. It's a top down transformation of
- 41:13the entire system. That was a little video summarizing a sixty page report from
- 41:17the United Nations Development Program, which has accelerator labs in one hundred and fifteen
- 41:22countries and is a partnership between them and NESTA, which is the National Endowment
- 41:29for Science and Technology, and the ARCH is a UK government institution which owns
- 41:32the Behavioral Insights Team. Right, So that's where that stuff's coming from.
- 41:37It's very much focused on international audiences. But we've got another example here.
- 41:43I said I had two examples, This second one from fu Terra and Bworks.
- 41:47The low Carbon Lifestyles WILL and few TERROR were ceded by Nest. So
- 41:54this is another Nest type organization. It's part of the same ecosystem, and
- 42:00they've developed the Action Wheel, which basically gives you a whole bunch of things
- 42:06that you can do, your organization can do, you can try and get
- 42:08other people to do it in order to generate climate action. It's designed for
- 42:13use by internal teams inside organizations, entrepreneurs, new product developers, branding and
- 42:19marketing teams, the C suite. Absolutely, everyone should get their hands on
- 42:22this, and it spells out the benefits whether those are functional, emotional,
- 42:28or social benefits to take in climate action. All of this came out on
- 42:32Monday, and this is just a tiny, tiny slither of the type of
- 42:37propagandizing and actionable toolkits and plans that are out there for people to begin acting
- 42:44on what we're being told is a climate emergency. Yes indeed, Okay,
- 42:49thank you, Ben. We're going to move on to AI and a report
- 42:53at saeg net or. The title of this is ficial recognition techology and human
- 43:00raiders can predict political orientation from the images of expressionless faces, even when controlling
- 43:07for demographics and self preservation. So presentation, sorry, so let's have a
- 43:12look at what they're saying here. Carefully standardized facial images of five hundred and
- 43:16ninety one participants were taken in the laboratory while controlling for self presentation, facial
- 43:22expression, head orientation, and image properties. They were presented to human raiders
- 43:28and offacial recognition algorithm. Both humans and the algorithm could predict participant scores on
- 43:34a political orientation scale decorrelated with age, gender, and ethnicity. Moreover,
- 43:38the associations between facial appearance and the political orientation seem to generalize beyond our sample.
- 43:44The predictive model derived from standardized images could predict political orientation from naturalistic images
- 43:51of three four hundred and one politicians from the United States, the United Kingdom,
- 43:54and Canada. They go on to say that we demonstrate the political orientation
- 44:00can be predicted from neural facial images by both humans and algorithms, even when
- 44:05factors like age, gender, and ethnicity are accounted for. This indicates a
- 44:08connection between political leanings and inherent facial characteristics, which are largely beyond an individual's
- 44:15control. Our findings underscore the urgency for scholars, the public, and policy
- 44:20makers to recognize and address the potential risks of facial recognition technology to personal privacy.
- 44:25Perhaps most crucially, our findings suggest that widesp widespread biometric surveillance technologies are
- 44:31more threatening than previously thought. Now that is a peer reviewed paper. I
- 44:37recommend that everybody reads it in full and considers the implications of it. But
- 44:45in the meantime we see the increasing rollout of AI across government and here we
- 44:52go. Here's the next one. A handshake here because the UK government has
- 44:58now decided to create an incumputor for artificial intelligence. That's been going for a
- 45:02little while, but they've entered in an agreement with NHS England. They're calling
- 45:07this the Collaborative Charter on AI and this will impart the NHS workforce to use
- 45:13AI to improve patient care and staff experience as well as operational efficiency. So
- 45:21the Collaboration Charter is a fantastic thing. Here's what Oliver Ddin had to say
- 45:23about it. I hope you appreciated that was slightly sarcastic. Anyway, AI
- 45:28has potentially, he said, and I don't say this lightly a silver bullet.
- 45:31It dangles before us the prospect of increased productivity, vast efficiency, savings
- 45:37and improved services. I should say that he made this statement in his speech
- 45:40that he was giving at Imperial College in London. He went on to say
- 45:45in healthcare, AI diagnostic tools could transform primary care, with appointments transcribed in
- 45:51real time by ambient AI, then instantly producing prescriptions and referrals. Which appointments
- 45:58is he's talking about, because as we all know, nobody can get appointments
- 46:00at the moment. But anyway, he went on to say, it will
- 46:04also improve scans read by AI with further accuracy, with far greater accuracy,
- 46:08and medicines tailored individuals based on their genetics, again using AI. But it's
- 46:14not just healthcare because in the same speech he also talked about education and by
- 46:21coincidence, last week, Hyperion dev is this is their tweet, represented by
- 46:24our CEO and founder rhy As Mulla, participated in a landmark ed tech round
- 46:30table hosted in London by Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowed and Education Secretary Gillian Keegan
- 46:36of the UK Government, and the round table had everybody on it, so
- 46:42they had represented us from dull Lingo from Hyperion dev as we've just seen from
- 46:46good notes from teach mid Ai from Portsmouth Education Partnership, l e O Academy,
- 46:53Trust Step Lab, and a whole bunch of others, all wanting to
- 46:58get involved and embrace as being the great savior of humanity. But Ben,
- 47:02I don't know if you've got any thoughts on this, but my observation would
- 47:06be that if we look at how we have been, humanity has been done
- 47:09down by something as simple as GPS and not needing to read a map anymore.
- 47:15What happens when we start introducing AI on a broad scale to our children.
- 47:22The whole issue of trust then and where we get our information from becomes
- 47:27clear for the children, but they perhaps don't get an education. Well,
- 47:31I think the point is that we actually have no idea what's going to happen
- 47:36when we start introducing I'm personally the view that kids under the age of a
- 47:43team shouldn't have access to certainly my bibleflines, potential computers, and definitely not
- 47:47artificially intelligence. To me, it just seems crazy that this is even being
- 47:51discussed. Indeed, but let's come on to the issue of media and so
- 47:57on, and NPR absolutely yeah. So NPR is the American version of the
- 48:05BBC. Basically, it's a publicly funded radio station, and its chief executive,
- 48:12Katherine Meyer, who was also formerly Wikipedia as chief executive, has been
- 48:17doing the rounds recently on Telegram, certainly because of a few public statements issues
- 48:22made, and I'm going to play one now and then interested to see what
- 48:25people's thoughts on it. How I started by talking about the idea of free
- 48:31and open as some of our founding principles sort of free and open source coming
- 48:36from me the open source community. Well, I have come to the opinion
- 48:40and the perspective that free and open was a way of looking at the world
- 48:45that was inherently limited relative to what we were trying to achieve. Free and
- 48:49open has the best of intentionality, but in the end, what free and
- 48:52open often ended up doing, and particularly in the case of Wikipedia, was
- 48:55really recapitulating many of the same power structures and dynamics that exist offline prior to
- 49:01the advent of the Internet and So what we ended up seeing was Wikipedia really
- 49:07rebuilt this idea of knowledge as a whole around what the Western canon. You
- 49:12see, the exclusion of communities of languages because of the ways in which Wikipedia
- 49:17is based on reliable sources. The idea of a written tradition is something that
- 49:22is particular to many I mean not sorry, the idea of a written tradition
- 49:27which is particular to some cultures and not to others. The ways in which
- 49:30we I ascribe notability often really comes from sort of this white male, westernized
- 49:37construct around who matters in societies and who is elevated in whose voices. And
- 49:43so some of these ideas of sort of this radical openness really did not end
- 49:47up with the intention, really did not end up living into the intentionality of
- 49:52what openness can be. So the first thing is, I don't know what
- 49:58intentionality is. She really likes it, and it seems to be one of
- 50:02these academic terms that gets used by progressive liberal women in particular. That was
- 50:08really striking to me. Right, So, this is a woman who has
- 50:12an extraordinary amount of power as it relates to public discourse and the shaping of
- 50:16public opinion, and she thinks that free speech free and open access to the
- 50:22Internet is perpetuating historical inconsistencies or inadequacies with our system. She thinks that she
- 50:35can. It's her job, essentially, as part of her intentionality, is
- 50:38to remodel society on the Internet. It's a really remarkable statement that she's made
- 50:44there about it, Mike, Well, she's talking about the ministry of truth,
- 50:49doesn't she. She's talking about having the power to change history. I've
- 50:52just got to say, ben As, I can't remember the book, but
- 50:55you know it's well, we were talking about it, she wells. Earlier
- 50:59at the program, Will wrote a whole sway of the books on global governance
- 51:01and how he wanted to shape the world and all this kind of stuff.
- 51:05And in one of the other books, the key feature that he was,
- 51:07the key agenda item that he was attempting to encourage us to have was a
- 51:12global encyclopedia. And here we have one, and as you rightly say,
- 51:16it has such a huge influence on how people view the world and how the
- 51:21people view history, because they want to present themselves as the sort of basting
- 51:28of trust and the basting of authority. And we know that there are many,
- 51:31many inaccuracies on Wikipedia. But if that becomes the foundation of trusted information
- 51:38in the world, well, we can see how somebody that has what was
- 51:43the word and intentionality may intend that our views are changed on certain topics,
- 51:49or our memories of what happened in the past are amended over time. Yeah,
- 51:55and it's this idea that reality is just a projection of of prejudices or
- 52:01something, and that if we change the narrative, then that will change the
- 52:05underlying structure. It's a really odd worldview, but it's coming right from the
- 52:09top everywhere, frankly right. And just to note, it's Katherine Maia sitting
- 52:15with Jimmy Wales there with the check share on. He's the founder of Wikipedia,
- 52:22and Jimmy Wales is actually a trustee of Nestor, so the people who
- 52:28own the behavior and insights to the people that did that big Uan report we
- 52:31just talked about, who are in the sick of all of this global discussion
- 52:36pushing this progressive narrative right in at the top level at Wikipedia, which is
- 52:40one of the main online news information sources. Yes, indeed, Well,
- 52:47Ben, I'd be interesting to get your thoughts on this, because good news
- 52:51everyone there's a new organization fighting disinformation in the world. It's called the American
- 52:55Sunlight Project. This is the head image from the from their website. It's
- 53:00fantastic. In the world clouded by disinformation, We're on a mission to bring
- 53:05clarity, is what they say. So I wonder who's behind that. Well,
- 53:08it's none other than Nina Jakovitz Biden's homeland security disinformations are as she was
- 53:16until she lost the job five minutes after she got it, because she was
- 53:20just so unbelievably fascistic in her approach that nobody was prepared to accept it.
- 53:25We should never forget her little video which Stephanie banned me from playing again today.
- 53:30So everybody please send Stephanie a thank you message by email or something for
- 53:37making sure that you didn't have to put up with her singing that sialichu again.
- 53:42But this is what she has to say about this whole thing, The
- 53:45campaign against Kunter disinformation work is the greatest threat to freedom of expression at the
- 53:50academic academic integrity since McCarthy era. Ben. I don't know what you think
- 53:57about that, but it seems to me that what she read resents as McCarthyism.
- 54:02Yeah, they have absolutely no self awareness or sense of irony to these
- 54:06people. It's kind of staggering, actually, if she's actually sat down to
- 54:14think about how absurd it is that she denied the existence of the Hunter Biden
- 54:19laptop in the run up to the twenty twenty presidential election. It was one
- 54:22of the people out there saying, this is Russian disinformation. We can't possibly
- 54:24listen to this. She was completely wrong, and yet apparently she's still presenting
- 54:31herself with some kind of bastion of truth. She should probably go and hang
- 54:35around with Catherine my from NPI. In fact, they almost certainly got each
- 54:37other on speed dial. So yeah, this is what we're up against.
- 54:42Yes, the comment of the chat box, by the way, is Stephanie
- 54:44siev Friday again, so let's bring screen and just this is what she finished
- 54:50off by saying, disinformation knows no political party. It's ultimate victim is our
- 54:54democracy. Who's democracy? You're a democracy because I don't think you represented themocracy,
- 55:00Nina anyway. And another person that's involved in this is well, there
- 55:05are a number of people involved in it. The advisory board has Kitty Harbath,
- 55:10whose former Facebook executive, Emily Home, former National Security Council, US
- 55:15National Security Council official, and Nica Bushevitz, yeah, is the Gay Abbacy
- 55:22Group Movement Advanced Advancement Project representative and on screen here Benjamin Vitas is the left
- 55:31from what is described as the left wing Brookings Institution. He was once called
- 55:37the Bard of the Deep State. So anyway, it's a nice combination they've
- 55:40got there. But coming back to the UK, very briefly, I just
- 55:44mentioned that the OFFCOM has published their research, sorry their guide on the research
- 55:52that they're doing for online safety work, and they very much do feature misinformation
- 55:57in that because they say that that's one of the most prevalent potential harms encountered
- 56:00by both adults and children online, and they're particularly interested in emerging tactics,
- 56:06tactics, techniques and procedures for disinformation campaigns and any emerging actors. They're also
- 56:12interested in the prevalence of miss or disinformation and its correlation with significant moments and
- 56:16events such as political developments or humanitarian crises, and the means by which online
- 56:22locations become associated with miss or disinformation over time. So we will talk more
- 56:30about their research in due course, but just a final reminder that they are
- 56:35continuing to ask for views on implementing the Online Safety Act and specifically additional duties
- 56:40for categorized online services. You'll notice that one of the categories Category one online
- 56:47services that be Twitter, Facebook. These types of large social media platforms are
- 56:52required to protect under the guidelines so far to protect news publishers and journal list
- 57:00of content and any content which is viewed as of being of democratic importance.
- 57:06So that type of content, as long as it comes from a mainstream media
- 57:08source or a recognized news publisher source is protected. And anything anybody else says,
- 57:15whether it's evidenced or not, is likely to be taken down. So
- 57:20we will keep you posted on this as we go. But Debbie, we
- 57:23have and I'm finally here, and we'll just leave with this particular one.
- 57:30It's got well you describe it. I thought this was rather lovely. The
- 57:37youth may walk fast, but it's elders who know the road, and we
- 57:43do, don't. We experience counts for a lot life's experiences. Well,
- 57:47that's true. We have a little bit more time. So we also had
- 57:52a trigger warning. Oh yeah, trigger warning everybody right now. So we've
- 57:58previously revealed the savior of the world at the statue of Prince Charles, which
- 58:04caused a huge amount of stir on the UK column with our audiences and went
- 58:08global and all over the place those pictures. But I've got something else to
- 58:14show you. I'm probably not going to say anything about it until you watch
- 58:19it, and then you might want to make a comment. And I'm sure
- 58:22we'll be talking about this next clip. In extra, sculptor Igan Chosa is
- 58:30putting the finishing touches on a statue of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
- 58:34Here in Kosovo, Chosa and other ethnic Albanians idolized the British politician. National
- 58:39records indicate more than ten people are named Tony Blair, Tony or Blair,
- 58:45the spellings altered to fit local pronunciations. Tony Blair Gashi was born two years
- 58:51after the war, his name chosen by his father. He wanted to pay
- 58:54a tribute of our people, of our gratitude of Cosov people toward Tony Blair,
- 59:02and he always wanted to have a boy so he can name him after
- 59:07Tony Blair. And pretty much that's what happened. In two thousand and one.
- 59:09One thing help me now, twenty two, Gashi met the real Blair
- 59:14when he visited Pristina in twenty ten. Blair was greeted by several boys,
- 59:19all named after the politician. The moment stuck with the young Gashi. It
- 59:22was like meeting pretty much a prophet for our people. The life size clay
- 59:29statue of Blair will be cast in bronze and placed on Blair Boulevard in the
- 59:34eastern town of Ferrisage. The ceremony will take place on June twelfth, which
- 59:38marks the end of the nineteen ninety eight ninety nine Coast of a War.
- 59:43It was commissioned by the We Remember Tony Blair Foundation. The former British Prime
- 59:47Minister has been invited to the statues inauguration, but there's no word yet on
- 59:52whether he will attend. Well, Debbie, I don't really know what to
- 59:58say about that. That's precisely why I put the trigger warning out. But
- 1:00:04you know, for people that want to go and have a look, it
- 1:00:07will be placed eventually on Blair Boulevard. Excellent. I can't think of anything
- 1:00:13better to do with your time. But okay, thank you for that,
- 1:00:15Debbie, thank you for adding on that note, we do have to leave
- 1:00:20it there for today. Undoubtedly we will have more to say an extra Ben
- 1:00:23is clearly queuing up for quite a few comments, and as if you are
- 1:00:30your CA caldmember, join us for extra in a few minutes. Just stay
- 1:00:32on the stream here otherwise we'll be back at one pm on Monday as usual
- 1:00:37for more news. I hope you have a great weekend and we'll see you
- 1:00:40then. Bye bye,
