Who's doing it? Who's doing it?
I'll do it. OK.
You do it. OK.
Let's see how prepared we are for the last programme of the.
Year. Good afternoon Today is Friday
the 20th of December 2024, just after 1:00.
Welcome to UK Column News, the last news in 2024.
I'm your host today, Brian Gerrish with in the studio, Mike
Robinson and we've got a full team with us.
So we have Alex Thompson, we have Debbie Evans, we have
Charles Manic, we have Mark Anderson, Ben Rubin and Diane
Rasmussen Mcaddy. So full house, really.
Yes, indeed. No, this is the last programme
of the year and what we normally do is to sort of choose our
favorite stories from the year or what we thought was the most
significant stuff from the year and maybe have a look into next
year as well. But before we get on to that, I
thought we should start with this fantastic piece of news
that we all got this morning. And so let's bring the lovely
Peter on screen. And he used to be known as
Prince of Darkness, of course. So we thought it appropriate
that he is put in a Anton Lavey esque pose here.
And of course, he has been appointed as ambassador to the
United States. And you know, what more could
Trump wish for? Well, it's just utterly
incredible. Of course, that was your image
from many years ago, Mike, which is absolutely appropriate to
bring it back on screen. But the fact that he's now being
fully engaged in Stormers cult, because that's what I think it
is, and given this prime position in the States, I think
is, is so telling. They're not even trying to cover
their tracks at the moment. Indeed.
So let's have a look and see what was said about this.
This is the government statement on it from an unnamed
spokesperson. The fact that the Prime Minister
has chosen to make a political appointment at Saint Lord
Bamelson to Washington shows just how importantly we see our
relationship with the Trump administration.
They said we're sending someone close to the Prime Minister with
unrivalled political and policy experience, particularly on the
crucial issue of trade. He's the ideal candidate to
represent UK's economic and security interests in the USA.
Now, of course, he was at one point business secretary under
Gordon Brown. He was president of the Board of
Trade at one point. He was European commissioner for
trade at one point. But of course, there's been
questions about Peter Mandelson over the years.
Let's just listen to this or remind ourselves about this
question that was asked of Keir Starmer about Peter Mandelson.
If you'll excuse me, the FT did the report this summer on a JP
Morgan report which suggested that Peter Manderson had stayed
at the New York townhouse of Jeffrey Epstein in 2009 when he
was de facto Deputy Prime Minister and while the financier
was imprisoned for soliciting prostitution from a minor.
Do you think that Lord Mandelson, who is of course a
close political ally of yours, has some questions to answer?
On Peter Mandelson look, and I do try to give pretty full
answers in these sessions. I don't know any more than you
do, and therefore there's not really much I can add to what
you already know, I'm afraid. And you know, that's simply the
state of the affairs. Thank you, Jim.
I've got Martina from the Sun. So true, true to form there
because you know, to Keir Starmer when he was DPP was not
prosecuting Jimmy Savile and a whole bunch of other things and
clearly no interest in discovering the truth of what
may or may not be alleged against Peter Mandelson either.
Alex, I'd be keen to ask you your opinion on this because
you've been, you've been following these people for a
very long time. What makes Peter Mandelson
qualified to be the ambassador for the United States under
Donald Trump? Is he, are they, is he going to
be going over there to try to handle Trump?
I think he knows where the bodies are buried.
He is going to handle Trump's handlers.
I don't think there's any precedent for British
ambassadors trying to tell American or for that matter
French presidents how to act in a strong presidential system in
a major country. That is not going to happen.
But Mandelson, Mandelson can Marshall the pro British forces
that exist in Washington and certainly in New York as well,
and get them to dance to the music of a different set or the
beat of a different drum. I think that's more likely that
on the cards, particularly the Foggy Bottom end of the British
Empire that is the US State Department always been very pro
British. Yes, indeed.
Now let's come on to your segment.
And Alex, you and I have both been following Georgia for a
very long time. You perhaps much closer than I
have, but nonetheless, we've been talking about it for quite
some time. And, and one of the big stories
of this year has been what's been going on over there.
Indeed, and if you'll pardon the noise behind me, I'm afraid that
that's nothing I can do anything about.
I'll explain in a moment where I am Salome Zurab Bishvili, who
exactly 20 years ago became a Georgian citizen by special
dispensation of the then President of France, Nicolas
Sarkozy. She was until then a French
diplomat of Georgian extraction. She is due to finish her
presidential term at the end of the year in just a few years few
days time. And at the moment it seems that
we're going to have a January the 6th stand off in the
presidential palace in Tbilisi. This rather elderly lady born in
1952, so over 70, has just addressed the European
Parliament in its plenary session in Strasbourg and has
effectively called for EU and for that matter NATO
intervention in her country. It is quite a remarkable step
that's been taken here. So here we see that's in the
middle of her speech. Beg your pardon for the the
double turn there. She said we are only asking for
you 2, that is for the European Union to give us our voice back
because of the stolen elections. In other words, her own people
aren't allowed to choose the next government.
And she's very piqued because Georgia is now transiting to an
indirect appointment of president.
So from now on the short, we can say the pro Russian majority in
the electorate, which is elected a a party that wants modus
Vivendi with Russia, they are going to indirectly appoint
presidents and the president will be more of a figurehead.
In fact, the current one that's due to come in in a few days
time to replace her is a former footballer.
So not somebody who is expected to be a heavyweight politician.
And Zura Besvili was calling on the EU to stand up for the
repressed people of Georgia by, well, by preventing the new
government from being able to function.
And she transparently said that the European Union needed
Georgia because it was a bridgehead into the Russian
regions. And that's if you if you lose
us, you won't be able to meddle with the Black Sea region and
you won't be able to colonize Armenia.
She didn't quite use those language, that language upfront,
but she was having to put it all out there in a way that wouldn't
have been desirable a few years ago.
And some of the responses include here, For example, the
French entrepreneur, I think now living in China, or at least
very much au fait with China, obviously takes a pro Russian
line here. And but he he says fairly
enough. I've rarely seen in response to
this speech in Strasbourg by Sarot Salamesa Robashvili.
I've rarely seen such a blatant example of treasonous behaviour
from any president anywhere. It's strong language.
But she was basically saying I'm not flouncing out, you have to
prop me up. And if even if I go, perhaps
being dragged out by by troops from the presidential palace.
We need another revolution in this country.
So Bertrand says that in this speech she's begging for foreign
intervention against her own country because she disagrees
with the choices of the democratically elected
government. Truly unreal will certainly less
of a veneer than there used to be and therefore makes a
comparison with Yoon, the now impeached president of South
Korea, who got a unanimous vote against him in parliament.
So it is a bit of a trend that and we see it very strongly in
Romania, which saw Rabishvili applauded the overturning of
that election by the courts in Romania.
The and she referred to it too in her speech in accusing Russia
of the same thing. The game the great game the the
buffer's own countries between Russia and the West is now not
really starting wars as such, but it is declaring the other
side's candidates to have been unduly elected by opposition, by
election interference. But for example, the only reason
that the there has been footballer it's becoming head of
state once so rubbish really gets kicked out of the
presidential palace next week or goes gracefully.
The only reason why she is going to be a he is going to be a shoo
in is because the opposition is so fragmented or all shouting
some shade of we are Europeans but not agreeing on anything.
They didn't agree. They agreed not to contest the
election. So it's perhaps an admission
grudgingly that they wouldn't have got the majority if they
had contested it. Now this has been analysed by
people including Simplicius the thinker as and some of our views
will know that he's quite an an unnuanced pro Russian analyst.
But the detail is in this. And this, of course, will all be
in the show notes to read in a piece, which is a medley with a
piece that begins with a piece on Georgia.
He says that this Zurabishwili speech, which you can watch by
following the notes in the show notes, is the very apotheosis of
the rules based orders terminal decline.
Well, there was a tan from equality to it, that's for sure.
She was speaking her third or fourth language.
But you know, there there was a lot of pleading you, you must
prop me up, or at least they then that follow me.
He says that there is no Ave. left, the West, the West steep
state, but to ratchet up totalitarian policies to stay in
power and the anti democratic calls become increasingly naked
and they're forced to say the quiet parts out loud and he goes
on. She hails the illegal
nullification of the Romanian election, which is met by
resounding applause by the corrupt unelected bureaucrats.
That's the European Commission and and parliament he's talking
about. It was more to the parliament
than the Commission there. And simplicity says that a dying
empire seeks only absolute power and expansion at all costs.
Nothing else matters. We will see what comes of this,
whether Kavelashvili takes over from her.
But as we're in prediction mode, as we always are at Christmas,
one of my predictions is that Georgie will undergo at least
one revolution in 2025. It wouldn't be unprecedented for
it to have to perhaps a spring and an autumn revolution.
You know, stranger things have been known in that region.
Before I do, at the next mini segment, just reminding viewers
of our constitutional material, I should explain why I'm here
and why it's a bit of a hubbub. Behind me is a portrait of the
Reverend John Kershaw and I'm in his old Chapel, which is Hope
Chapel in Rochdale in sunny Lancashire.
And the reason I'm here is a bit of a good news story really.
Although the attenders of this Chapel have heated out to almost
nothing, it attracted the attention of a Dutch cattle
farming village where they're all staunch churchgoers.
And about 100 people have turned up today with me as interpreter,
to see the Chapel reopened for its old purpose of Christian
worship. And that, you know, that they've
done everything to sponsor the refurbishment up to and
including taking the old roof tiles back to the Netherlands
for a Polish and reinstalling them on the roof.
So, you know, it's quite, quite a shame that, that we couldn't
do it ourselves as as Britain. But it means that the heritage
Chapel in town centre has been preserved.
Then sorry, did. You.
I didn't, yeah. Sorry.
This is a This is a technical incident, yes.
It seems to be a technical incident.
Yeah. OK.
So what? What's your next segment, Alex?
It's just really to Oh, yes, I'm, I'm sorry that I forgot
that there was one more slide in the previous one as well, which
is that there is APDF available here and translated into English
as well on the historical memory of the North Caucasus site where
we read that Salameh Zurabishvili's grandfather.
This is the reason why she was in France growing up is because
her grandfather was one of these National Socialist fellow
travellers who went West and surrendered to the Allies in
1945. And here you can read a
translation of the Swiss interrogation of her
grandfather, Michel Kedia, in which he pretty much admits that
he was in good graces with the Nazis throughout the war.
It's just par for the course for the region.
All of the countries between Georgia and Estonia, the current
political class, have got a background like that two
generations ago. So these are the figures that
the European Union sponsors. Yes.
The other thing I have to mention, because alongside
predictions, we also make promises or undertakings at this
time of year, is that our constitutional coverage is going
to be a particular focus of mine, even though I'm not able
to do as much presenting at the moment, certainly not every week
as I used to be able to. I'm no less committed to UK
column and I will be making a particular effort to get our
constitutional coverage up and running again.
Pay particular notice to this sterling writer, Philip Ridley.
His two most recent articles on freedom of speech being
constitutional, inheritance of Britain no less than of America,
and on whether we can be taken to war without a parliamentary
vote are very useful articles indeed.
They dovetail with the recent interest that's Ben has gathered
in investigating the House of Commons library, which is MPs
one stop shop for the official version of Truth.
And I'm sure that he'll be producing a lot more and also
podcasting with us. And so that's my other promise
or prediction for 2025 is that we're going to restart a
dissident's guide to the Constitution.
Because as we were saying last night on Millennial with Brian
and Ben and myself as guests representing UK column, as
people who watch us increasingly decide to leave the reservation
that's been marked out for them by the the state and the the
regime, they're going to need to know what it is that they are
fighting for and what a good way to govern themselves is.
So constitutional coverage is going to be our focus.
Yes, I'm very much looking forward to that.
Alex, if I may, you've managed to fly all the way from that
strange country called Netherlands into the United
Kingdom with no trouble at all from our illustrious security
services. So obviously to do an end of the
year UK column news was not deemed to be a security risk to
the UK on this occasion, is that correct?
Correct. And I should, I should face you,
shouldn't I? Because we've agreed to be a big
Christmas. Yeah, you can't do that in that.
Face to face panels. You can't do probably. 0.
You'll be. On this occasion I I was I was
not pulled over for a Section 7 or a Schedule 12 or any of the
delightful things that's that the police have at their
disposal to hassle people coming into the country with wrong
thing. Yeah, this is very encouraging.
So we've ended the year and we're clearly a non threatening
organization to the not only the security of the UK but also the
world at large. Indeed.
OK, Thank you, Alex. Let's come on to you, Debbie.
And what's your take on 2024? Wow, yeah, good afternoon and
happy Christmas everybody. I'm trying to do my little bit
but I am quite low key for Christmas.
But I guess to move forward we've got to look back and I'm
particularly concerned that there doesn't seem to be much of
A written record with how we've gone the last 4-5 years.
It's like people are trying to get us to forget.
It's like the last five years, COVID years never happened.
So I'm keen to remember and to go back because as we're sitting
here today, there are millions of people out there with vaccine
injuries. There are millions of people out
there who were suffering bereavement.
Over the last five years, there have been people that have died
way before their time. So I think it's really important
that we remember that COVID, in my opinion, was phase one, no
job, no entry, no job, no job. So let's look at what we've been
through and let's look at perhaps phase two, which could
be no digital ID, no entry, no digital ID, no job.
But let's go back to 2019 because I think it's really
important that we do look back. And I want to take you back to
the COVID memorial wall because everybody that's remembered on
here, whether they've died from mid Aslam and morphine death,
whether it was vaccine injury, whether, whether it's whatever,
these people for life for them and their relatives will never
be the same again. Do you remember this complete
lunacy that we went through? And here you've got a school
orchestra sitting in tents because they're not allowed
together, School children standing on yellow circles
because they're not allowed to be together.
And if we go on, we can find elderly, the elderly that were
trapped in care homes only speaking through windows, many
of them desperate to to touch and hug their relatives.
And then, you know, a gun at your head.
Really. We went through that.
People were actually standing in lines and having guns put up
their heads. And then crazy stuff like people
were that desperate to hug one another.
They were making makeshift plastic suits.
Do you remember these plastic suits?
Remember, they told all the children they could kill Granny.
And then I think probably one of the most tragic, tragic pictures
I've ever seen was the rubber gloves that were inflated and
filled with warm water to comfort the dying and comfort
those that were ill. But COVID, you know, for me and
I think probably for many people, was in my opinion, an
excuse, a reason to kick off the whole climate change sustainable
goals. And we'll always take it back to
the sustainable goals or maybe the unsustainable goals.
And here you've got King Charles the Third.
Because we mustn't forget that when we look at the top of the
pyramid, he is one of the biggest characters at the top of
the pyramids. And if you want to go and look a
little bit more about King Charles, you know, we have done
an awful lot of work. Ryan and I have done five
programs, 5 interviews about the Green King.
And we've got more coming up. And you can see there on the
news, I think we shocked everybody really, when we showed
this statue of Prince Charles as he was then, saviour of the
world in a loincloth with wings standing on.
A hill of skulls. So you know, we've got climate
change rolling out now, taking over COVID, but we've also got
climate change mixing, fusing, if you like, with health.
So here's the world World Health Organization because you can see
that the World Health Organization are into climate,
but in what capacity? Why?
What do they have to offer? Well, you know what, when you
think about the UK, what do we have to offer the world?
Well, it's health. So we tie in very well with the
World Health Organization. And life sciences, as Ben has
been highlighting for ages, has been really where we are heading
for £68 million. Sixty 8 million of us are in the
NHS. We are captured.
So life sciences is a massive industry and we are able to
offer that to the world. But through what?
How, what? So we've got to come back to the
NHS because that's the unique selling point for the UK.
So we've got the NHS Confederation, which is the
engine room. That is the engine room where
everything is driven. And then you've even got the NHS
Green website with the logo. So COVID phase one was fear
control, surveillance, data harvesting, data stealing, but
one huge, massive experiment. But the four, the last four
years have been interesting. We'll talk.
I mean, I'm sure many people will talk about Biden and Trump
coming up. But in the Biden years, although
there's been carnage, it's been a very good opportunity for
those in control to gather the data to see how did the public
react during those four COVID years, 3 COVID years, how many
people took injections? Where were the dissenters?
Where were the voices that were standing up?
This gave them a very good opportunity to data collect and
it also gave us a very good opportunity to see the agenda
moving forward. So let's look ahead to 2025,
which I believe could be the second phase.
What have we got to look forward to?
So very quickly, digital ID. Well, we all know that digital
ID is coming in. Mike's spoken many, many times
about the whole digital identity and, and the fact that actually,
are you going to be able to go to the supermarket?
Will you be able to go to the doctor?
Will you be able to get on the bus?
Will you be able to go and visit your mum if you don't give
digital ID? And how important is that?
Well, of course it all links into the NHS app and we've
talked about the NHS app over and over again and here it is.
Apparently 34 million people have it it.
It's the key, in my opinion, to a digital prison.
There's no way out. It's a spy in your pocket.
You're going to be constantly pinged by the NHS.
They're going to come to you. You don't have to go to them
anymore. They're going to come to you.
And I want to thank Ned Artisguna, one of our very own
members, an amazing artist who did this scrap the app meme for
us. I mean, it really is fantastic.
No more human touch just to screen.
Your data will go to Palantir. Palantir, probably off to Mossad
and CIA. And your hospital bed is in your
bedroom. So what else have we got to look
forward to moving forward? Well, of course, another big
thing is antimicrobial resistance.
We've talked about it many times before.
Please go to the search bar on the column because you'll see
loads of material antimicrobial resistant.
So we're going to get super bugs that are resistant to
antibiotics. We're going to get generic drugs
and antibiotics. They're all going to be in short
supply. And you're going to get new
antivirals and monoclonal antibodies coming down the line.
You're going to get new equipment in hospitals as well.
Hospitals are going to be pretty exclusive.
You won't be able to pop into your local hospital, your
teaching hospital anymore. It will be more by invitation
only. And you can look forward to
these new body scanners for UK patients.
And then of course, because hospitals are going to be pretty
much out of bounds, hospital is going to be your home and that
is the future. Remote virtual care and also
more genome testing. So Oxford Nanopore here,
breakthrough genetic sequencing, the world's first epigenetic
map, 50,000 samples from UK Biobank.
So this is where the life sciences agenda is going.
This is where the UK want to use every single one of us as their
experimental Lab Rats and more experiments too.
So patients, the NHS and the life sciences sector set to
benefit from new clinical trials.
This basically means new clinical trials means they're
going to come through quicker. You're going to be opted into
them probably many times without even being asked.
You'll be in a clinical trial. Or maybe you'll be participating
in Future Health where you get £10 to answer a load of
questions and give a blood blood test.
I'm sure many of you watching won't be doing that, but that's
the agenda moving forward. And AI, artificial intelligence,
of course, your medicine and your care is going to be
controlled by AI. And I have to say catastrophic
contagion. Who has who remembers
catastrophic contagion? This is Bill Gates's latest
exercise, the John Hopkins Centre, where he forecasts
severe epidemic enterovirus, respiratory syndrome.
So we've talked about it a lot. Norovirus, E coli, walking
pneumonia, gastric bugs, nausea, vomiting, the winter bug.
We get it every year. But of course there's going to
be new medications coming down for it, like an mRNA injection.
And please don't forget that serious adverse reactions, one
in six people in hospital, in a hospital bed right now are in
hospital because of a drug. Serious adverse reaction is
pretty sobering. But you know what, I think for
me, moving forward, we have to look at other things like
assisted dyeing. But I want to bring it back to
the chair of the Commission of Human Medicines.
I want to bring it back to some Munir Per Mohammed.
And if you don't know who Munir per Mohammed is, we've done a
lot of work on him. He is the chair of, he's the CEO
actually of the Commission of human medicines.
He reports to the ministers, right?
So if a drug is approved, he will report to the minister and
he will say to the minister, we've ticked the box for Pfizer,
AstraZeneca, COVID vaccine, whatever the medication be.
They also advise the chief medical officers as well.
So Munir, per Mohammed, is very important because he also
advises the MHRA. So he's the top of the tree.
And as you can see, he's going to be here for another four
years. But his conflicts of interests
are huge. We've talked about him a lot.
But you know what? I want to show you a little clip
because people say to me, are these people just mad?
Are they evil? Do they know what's going on?
Do they understand what's going on?
And what I'm going to say is when you see this little tiny
clip of Professor Munir, Per Muhammad, he is, he's
calculating 2050 when we're all still going to have iPhones.
He's even calculated that the number of iPhones that we're
going to be on. Has anybody not told Professor
Munir Per Mohammed, the actual agenda moving forward?
That your phone, you're not going to have a phone in five
years time, probably. It's going to be integrated into
your body. So I'm not quite sure how clever
Professor Munir Per Mohammed is, but this is his vision of the
future. Have a listen.
It's going to happen in the next 50 years.
So I think if you look at where we are at the moment, we are at
the stage of iPhone 11 I think. So if I am right in terms of my
calculations, in 50 years time people will have the iPhone 36.
I think my timing is correct. So at the moment we use iPhone 4
GPS, which is Global Positioning System.
Tell us where to go in terms of maps.
In 50 years time, GPS will mean a genomic prescribing system.
On your phone, you will carry your whole human genome
sequence. It will be linked to your health
record in your GPS. In your hospital, it will link
to your laboratory tests. Your phone will not only have 9
senses, it'll probably have 100 senses.
It will it will we will be able to detect everything that's
happening in your body, incorporate them into your phone
and the artificial intelligence algorithms will take your whole
human genome. They'll take your activities,
what you eat, etcetera, and and therefore develop the best
algorithms for you so that you can actually.
Get the best treatment. And when you go to see your
doctor in 50 years time, you'll just take your phone, he'll just
plug it into his computer and he'll say, right, well, this is
what I need to do with you. This is the best treatment for
you. And that's the future of
medicine. I think that we are heading
there slowly. As I said, we can't fly at the
moment, but 50 years time, we'll be able to fly.
We can certainly walk very fast at the moment.
In the near future, we'll be able to run to be able to get
there. So thank you very much for your
attention. And that is the man that is
responsible for rolling out and, and making sure that the MHRA
and that ministers, the likes of Chris Whitty, approve all of
these injections and new medicines that are coming down
the line. That is who's in charge.
So let's finish off this segment because, you know, I love to get
back to Dame June Rain. This might be the last time we
see her because there's been a secret board meeting.
And who knows what's going to happen in January.
We'll probably have a new chair and a new CEO.
But this is an exclusive because let's see what Dame June Rain
thinks is going to come up in 2025.
Have a listen. Thank you, Graham, and.
As colleagues will have seen, it's quite a full report.
It's been a very busy time and I think it fully demonstrates the
breadth of the agencies deliverables.
As we're here at the Science Campus today, I think it's quite
nice to focus I think on the immense effort for antimicrobial
resistance. Antimicrobial resistance week is
this week and globally forces they're aligning.
But here at the Science Campus, we have some real cutting edge
work on bacteriophage and also on the microbiome.
And none of that of course detracts from the role on
vaccines. So let's I think really pay a
bit of tribute to the huge efforts that Nicola is leading
here in terms of antimicrobial resistance.
But that, as I say, is not to neglect what is happening on
vaccines as we prepare, ever prepare for the coming flu in
the coming year in terms of access to healthcare products,
the earlier announcement of a refreshed innovative licensing
and access pathway. Has been very much welcomed,
particularly the fact that the NHS is fully signed up to be on
board with a narrower focus on products that are truly
transformative. And another important
development has been related to the work on mRNA platform
technology, not just for cancer vaccines, but for personalized
medicines and guidance that will be out there for public
consultation quite soon. So the efforts to drive forward
innovation really are moving ahead quite, quite strongly.
Our return to Green programme on the other hand.
So there you go mRNA moving forward for all personalized
medicines. So finally scanned for safety.
You're going to be scanned, you're going to be barcoded.
Your hand isn't going to be held.
An iPad is going to be held. There's going to be more jabs,
more apps. If you expect bedside care from
a nurse, then I'm afraid you're mistaken.
That's not what you're going to get.
If you expect a doctor to know what he is prescribing to you,
He doesn't, you're mistaken. If you expect a pharmacist to
know what the doctor has dispensed and what ingredients
are in that medication he's giving you or she they don't,
you are mistaken. Do you know who's looking after
you? Because what I will say is
please ask, just ask the questions, question everything.
But just finally, finally, because the end on good note on
my segment is I want to thank all our amazing friends, our
guests, the people that we've met on interviews, Cheryl
Granger. I'm talking about Doctor Robert
Everett, our members. I'm talking about Robin Kelly,
Doctor Robin Kelly, Jane Dean, who we've just interviewed, and
all of the other amazing people who are doing huge amounts of
work in the background. And Doctor Tech Tong, Dr. Tech
Kong, excuse me because he and I, we're going to get you a
hospital, an old belts and braces hospital, coming back
with uniforms, TLC and where you'll be welcome with a smile.
So there is a lot to look forward to, good stuff to look
forward to in 2025, but also words of caution.
Be aware, keep your eyes open, keep your eyes around you and
ask questions. Over to you gentlemen.
Debbie, I think my first response is just to hold up this
wonderful card because this is Ned, who's on the case with a
Scrap the App Christmas card. So with Ned on board and others,
we're well on your initiative to get rid of the app.
And also want to say that if Charlie boy, King Charles, as he
is now, can have his own statue with a loincloth and wings.
I just wanted to point out that I've had a statue of myself for
some time. No wings, of course, and that's
it. I don't know whether you can
make it out, but it's a very good statue.
So he's not the only one that's been given a statue of him.
Debbie, just to finish off, your blog will be up very soon.
Oh thank you, yes, it's a bit of a Christmas Eve.
Well it's crazy isn't it? The Vatican at the Pope's going
to be opening 5 sacred portals on Christmas starting on
Christmas Eve. We've even got an AI Jesus and
looking forward, peace and security.
I'm not sure whether we'll get that, but let's pray for it.
OK. Thank you, Debbie.
Right, Mark, let's come on to your segment. 9 Yeah, good day
everyone, viewership as well as fellow presenters here in UK
column. You know, I didn't think a whole
lot for today about looking back in 2024 and looking ahead in
2025 except what I have to say now.
My thoughts are a lot of what I do looks at the media, the mass
media cartel, its history, its founders, its function and the
prospects for the future. Whether it will fold, whether it
will be decommissioned, whether the dissident media can overtake
that and own the narrative. And that would affect everything
Debbie talks about. It would affect everything we
talked about and one of the big cover ups and one of my subjects
for today, a huge cover up in terms of our government and the
media is the USS Liberty. And this first slide will show
an acquaintance of mine. I met Phil Tierney in both 2013
and 2018 and he did a interview with Candace Owen, the noted
constitutionalist commentator here in the States, which
reportedly got over 4 million views.
Those in the State of Israel may not like that, but it says here
on June 8th in 1967, while patrolling in international
waters in the Eastern Mediterranean, the USS Liberty
was savagely attacked without warning or justification by the
air and naval forces of America's greatest ally, the
State of Israel. One of the biggest cover ups of
all time. As a matter of fact, I won't
read this whole thing. It's it's here for those that
want to freeze the frame an important website
thereussliberty.org or you can go to usslibertyveterans.org and
it'll take you to the same website.
But I'll just cite a little bit of this Of a crew of 294
officers and men, including three civilians, the ship
suffered 34 killed in action and 173 wounded in action.
The ship itself, a $40 million state-of-the-art signals
intelligence platform, was so badly damaged that it never
sailed on an operational mission again and was sold in the 70s
for a little over 100 and thou 101 thousand.
That's all as scrap. And that again happened at
$1400. It was on the 8th of June at 67,
approximately 17 nautical miles off the North Sinai coast.
And Phil, Phil Turney outlined to Candace how first there were
surveillance planes, kind of scout planes that came out and
looked friendly and they were from the state of Israel and
they could see the cameras. They were taking pictures and
what I'll mention was then when there was rocket fire and napalm
fire and cannon fire, they had taken what they photographed and
then they strategically hit those things.
In other words, they blew out the life rafts first.
They blew out the communication antennas and devices and
anything else that the 50 caliber machine guns that were
on deck. All of that was strategically
blown out first because they had used the photographs that they
had just taken. So they knew exactly what to
shoot. So it it was a dirty pool to say
the least. Now we've got a short video clip
of Phil Tourney talking to Candace Owen and his thoughts on
Donald Trump with regards to this issue.
All presidents and all Congress, including Donald Trump, has not
done anything for us. They're beholden to the Zionist
state. AIPAC, you know, Donald Trump's
a new president. Again, I call on Donald Trump to
help us. I mean, we gave our lives and
our blood for this country at the hands of the Zionist Israel.
And does he stand with Israel or does he stand with the United
States? Fighting men that were
slaughtered that day by the Zionist state covered up same
with mistaken identity. I call on you, President Trump,
to give the USS Liberty the same courtesy we deserve or any
fighting man that was killed that day.
But we don't get it because Israel did it.
It's fine. As long as Israel did it's
everybody, it's fine. It was a mistaken identity.
It wasn't Admiral Moorer. He had the Moore report.
It's a very, very detailed report.
He's the longest serving Admiral in the United States Navy.
He served as the European commander and the Pacific
commander in two, two times as chairman of Joint Chiefs.
And he says I'll never believe it was a mistaken identity.
And he called, he called on Congress over and over to have
an investigation. Congress says there there
already has been an investigation.
There never has been. There's been a board of inquiry
by Admiral Isaac Kidd and his boss or his underling Jag
officer Ward Boston. They completed that
investigation to seven days. Should have taken a year.
They never even talked to Israel.
They took Israel's word instead of ours.
Quite dramatic testimony that he gave to Candace Owen.
It's a little over an hour long, easy to look up online.
On this slide, it notes that the website for the Liberty veterans
has gotten 1.5 million visits since 2020.
Pretty impressive. And they're calling for everyone
to help bring the true story of the attack on the Liberty to the
American people. And there's not much more to
share here. I'm keeping this fairly concise.
This is a new USS Liberty Monument.
You can examine this more closely at that website.
Very detailed, very artistic. And I believe if I'm not
mistaken on the left one, that's an actual piece of metal from
the ship that's molded in there with one of the ordinance holes
in it. I don't think that's make
believe. I believe that's real.
I'll have to double check that. And then there's an upcoming
event next June. Speaking of looking ahead to
2025, the Liberty Veterans Association 58th Anniversary
reunion June 6th through 9 in Norfolk, VA, near the huge naval
base there. I intend to be there.
I want to cover that. I have every intention of being
there. And there's also a four episode
docu series, Sacrificing the Liberty, and you can look up how
to purchase it on DVD or live stream it at that same website,
usslibertyveterans.org. And so with that, Mike, that
will do it for now for the USS Liberty, Yeah.
Keep going, Mark, because we've now got a segment on on the
drones that the issue of these strange drones simply flying
about everywhere in the United States, not just in the United
States. They're flying about U.S.
business in the UK as well. So RAF Lake and Heath is, is the
main US air base in the UK and apparently these drones are
flying around there as well. What is going on?
Well, I don't have all the answers.
I'm going to be a little bit more in the extra frame of mind
here. Permission to speak freely.
In other words, permission granted.
Maybe it's not a coincidence in the long term that CBS News is
real heavy on this. This first slide shows
mysterious drone sightings by CBS News.
I'll talk about why CBS is significant in a couple of
minutes. Trump claims the government
knows where the drones originated.
And most of the comments I'm seeing and I'll, I'll cite some
of these slides for for content in just a moment.
But just about all the comments I'm seeing that accompany videos
on this, the majority of people are just simply not buying it.
They're calling this a psyop. They're calling this brain
stirring, you name it, that it. It's basically kind of a
psychological operation, a psyop.
And this CBS notation, I'll cite briefly here, it says
President-elect Donald Trump claimed that the federal
government knows the points of origin of the mystery.
Jones flying over New Jersey, other East Coast states, and now
you're saying overseas. But the government wants to keep
the people in suspense. Actually, Trump's making more
more sense than most people. There is a congressman in New
Jersey who thinks there's an an Iranian mothership over the
Atlantic near the US coast and that the Iranian mothership is
letting smaller drones out. I'm not even going to dignify
the congressman by naming him, but anyway, CBS says this.
The president-elect didn't offer evidence for his claim and
declined to comment on whether he's been provided an
intelligence briefing on the drone matter.
The Department of Homeland Security, FBIFAA, Defense
Department said in a joint statement quote Having closely
examined the technical data and tips from concerned citizens, we
assess that the sightings to date include a combination of
lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones, law enforcement
drones, as well as man fixed wing aircraft, helicopters,
stars mistakenly reported as drones.
We have not identified anything anomalous and do not assess the
activity to date to present a national security or public
safety risk over the civilian airspace in New Jersey and other
states in the Northeast. And we'll move on from there.
Trump made his comments in a lengthy exchange with reporters
at Mara Largo. And Trump went out to say, and
reading again from the CBS report on this, the government
knows what's happening. Trump said, although the extent
of the of the government's knowledge is unknown, Trump
added, Look, our military knows where the drones take off from.
If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage.
They know where it came from and where it went.
And for some reason they don't want to comment, Trump added.
I think they'd be better off saying what this is our military
knows and our president knows. And for some reason they want to
keep the people in suspense. And so I, I think Trump is
exercising some some wisdom there because with the I, I was,
I was on a show last night and we had a very general brief
discussion about this with Brian, Brian McClain with his
boiler room boiler room broadcast that he does on
Thursdays. The the the data gathering that
our governments have the US and UK being part of Five Eyes, the
total information awareness and the surveillance capabilities
that have been developed over the years that are going off
into the medical field like Debbie outline the capability to
know what's in the sky is extremely immense.
And so to be told that this is something of a mystery.
There's you know, nothing to worry about and yet there's such
an unusual number of drones way beyond normal and many of them
seeming to move in kind of a formation or in unusual
patterns. And yet there for there to be no
explanation of it suggests again, it's a very intense SIOP
to test the waters to test people's responses.
A a a definite psychological operation.
Everything points to that. Another thing that has been
brought up in conversation is that, and my mom used to say
this. My mom was the original
conspiracy theorist. God rest her soul, Catherine
Anderson. She used to say when, when, when
the government does some big event, especially when it's a
little vague. You don't only you don't only
look at what they're doing and analyze it and try and dissect
it. You also look the other way.
What are they trying to divert you from?
What don't they want you to look at while they've got you looking
at the pretty lights in the sky? And I think that's some wisdom
we can all share in at any rate, depending on how long you guys
want to go with this. In this next slide, I put a
YouTube link where in a more sort of a more fantastic format,
you might say they they look at these drones.
It's a little bit sci-fi sounding.
But if you want to show either one of these short video clips
or both of them, go ahead and I can comment a little bit more.
Well, what we'll show. This video clip presents a truly
unnerving and unusual scene. It captures what appears to be
an extraordinary event taking place over the skies of New York
City. The spectacle is so surreal it
could easily belong in a Marvel movie, yet here it is unfolding
in real life. The footage leaves me genuinely
perplexed and searching for words to describe it.
Yeah, well, indeed, psychological operation, I
think, Mark. And we can.
We can you know the the the narrative towards blaming Iran
is very, very strong in this. Yeah, yeah, even though, I mean,
think about it, if if Iran departed their country with a
ship that was headed this way, it's just absolutely fantastic
to assume that our government would not know about it and
wouldn't put the kibosh on it long before they got near the
shore and released the little children drones off the mother
ship. So think about how absurd it is
for that congressman to to think people are going to believe
that, that that our government, that our Navy wouldn't have
stopped that long before it reached near the shores in the
Atlantic Ocean. Yeah, just sorry, just to just
to finish this off because I mean it is important to to
remind everybody that psychological operations have
been played on the general public before many, many times.
But I mean, I suppose the War of the Worlds broadcast was the
original and the best. Yeah, I'm glad that you included
this. I didn't know with the interest
of time how much to put in here. I looked at this a few years ago
and when radio was in its, you might say golden age and TV was
just coming up on Sunday, October 30th, the Mercury
Theater on the air produced by CBS News Radio.
Let's keep that slide up there produced War of the Worlds and
the well known actor and thespian Orson Welles.
He he took the lead narrator role.
And this is from the Boston Daily Globe radio play terrifies
nation. And there was a study by a
Princeton group that involved Frank Stanton, who would become
CBS president from 1946 to 1971. And that study group at
Princeton, in the wake of the War of the Worlds broadcast,
determined that about 6 million people heard it.
And of those 6,000,000, they actually felt that 1.5 million
of those 6,000,000 felt that it was real or seemed real, and
that it was not a hoax. At any rate, the the format was
where they had an orchestra playing.
And then the news would cut in very sharply and abruptly and
talk about anomalous strange events that eventually
culminated in a Martian invasion of Earth.
And they came in to Earth over the skies of New Jersey.
Now, it might be something of a stretch to say, hey, they're
talking about the drones being over New Jersey now, primarily
New Jersey. And maybe I'm over generalizing
and reaching a little bit on that one.
But it is curious, to say the least.
And I believe we have another newspaper front page.
Yeah. No, we don't.
I'm afraid we didn't see another one.
No, that was the only one. Oh, OK.
It depends on what you want to do.
I did have a couple, I provided a couple audio clips from the
actual broadcast, but I can also just talk about that a little
more, although what I've said is probably sufficient.
But it was just a comment just to summarize on it.
It, it was definitely a experiment in psychological
operations to see how the people would respond to a very, you
know, potentially frightening scenario and to see what they
would believe, how easy they'd be to fool, in other words.
And it's easy to go online and look up the original broadcast
and listen to it. There were brief disclaimers
where they, you know, by law they had to make it somewhat
clear that this was not real. But the disclaimers were very
far and very few and far between.
So if you tuned in and just happened to miss the disclaimer,
it might have been something where you'd be wondering whether
it was real or not. But yeah, this this was sort of
the Rosetta Stone of PSYOP operations.
Yes, OK. Thank you, Mark.
Then it's. Let's come on to you then and
what have you got? I've got quite a haul, actually.
Mike. Hello, everyone.
Merry Christmas and I hope you had a great 2024.
It's great to be here. And hello to all of my esteemed
colleagues. Look at us all lined up there.
What a fantastic little group we've got.
It's, it's, it's really great to see you all and to return to a
Friday. Actually, I've not been on the
column on a Friday in a little while.
So it's great to be here and I've taken a look back over my
first full calendar year of reporting on the global
technocratic supposed elite and what they're up to.
And it's kind of blown my mind actually going back through my
files. And I've just pulled out a few
kind of key moments, key things that really just astonished me
when I came across them across the year.
This is just a bit of a skim really, because I could probably
sit here for two or three hours and go into a whole load more
detail. And I'm going to start off by
looking at the place where the global technocratic elite, the
Predator class, always start their year in Davos.
The World Economic Forum is coming up in a few weeks.
And specifically I remember looking at Davos House, the
Goals House outpost in Davos, the global proper Hand
propaganda hub for the SDGS, the Sustainable Development Goals,
the kind of guiding light, the North star really, for how all
of this activity is being coordinated internationally,
right? The SDGS are extraordinarily
important. People like this big fan Tony
Blair loves them. Look at that, the Global Goals.
He's got a scarf. He's standing there in the snow
at Davos, hanging out with a bunch of of his mates.
David Cameron's obviously there because these people aren't
really in competition with each other.
They work together, right? These political leaders, they're
both pulling in the same direction.
You've got Cameron there with Kate Garvey actually stood next
to him. Who is one of Blair's former top
aides from Downing St. who now works at Freud Communication.
Who delivers Gold's house? They're the people responsible
for delivering this program. You've got AJ Banger there in
the turban who's now the World Bank, formerly at MasterCard.
So this is a big public private partnership, the global
corporations and the political leaders coming together with a
lot of representatives of rich families, particularly the
British royal family. We can see here Theresa May in
the centre standing next to Princess Eugenie, Co founder of
the anti anti slavery collective.
That's what she's currently doing, which is, I don't know,
kind of tragic and kind of entertaining when you know what
her family background is. And also the first real
humdinger of the year when you look at that little thing in the
wall over there, that tapestry. I remember coming across that in
January and sort of looking at it and going, what on earth is
that thing? And one of the viewers, column
viewers pointed out that it was this.
Well, it was a version of this. This is the bigger one that is
one of the smaller reproductions on the wall of the Gold's house
in Davos. But what are we looking at here?
This is the Wolfenstein tapestry, right?
And this is created by this man in a dress, Sir Grayson Perry,
CBE. And what does he show us?
He shows us a a scene of utter devastation, quite frankly.
You have all of the global corporations who are partners of
the World Economic Forum represented in these little
characters in this scene that he's created all the way going
through the course of someone's life, culminating in a bunch of
human children being sacrificed to Satan on the right hand side.
You can just see Satan's head there popping up in the gap
between those people in the ground.
Isn't that an extraordinarily odd thing for these people to
have on the wall in their meeting house in the mountains
at Davos? Right.
Maybe they're trying to tell us something.
I don't know. Anyway, that was the real, that
was the first one out of the gate.
We started the year as we meant to go on.
And who else do we meet in Gold's house in Davos?
Well, actually it was the first time that I think I introduced
this fella, James Harding, who is stood in front of said
tapestry in this image, A man who knows a lot about Satanic
Richard abuse from a purely journalistic perspective, of
course, because he's reported on it by his media organization,
Tortoise Media. He's the founder.
This is an extremely influential organization that he founded in
2018. We believe that the name
Tortoise is a reference to the mascot used by the Fabian
Society up until the 1960s. And the Fabians are a not so
secret Society of radical Marxists working to implement a
single global communist state. That's what they're doing and
that's what I think these people are doing up in the mountains,
quite frankly. Right.
And Harding sits at the the centre of that.
The motto of the Fabian Society, interestingly, is when I strike,
I strike hard. And these people, people are now
striking hard. I think that 2021, two and three
in particular have been about laying the groundwork for the
next big push, which is going to come in 2025.
They're going to be striking very hard.
This organization is going to sit at the centre of it.
How have they been doing that? Well, we've been reporting on
this. This year.
There's Harding leading the global conversation around AI
governance. Really, really crucial, right?
The artificial intelligence that they're trying to roll out is
the mechanism of implementing single, centralised global
governance. That's what it's for.
It's going to infiltrate absolutely everything.
Yeah. Debbie's already spoken about
how it's got into the health system.
I remember coming across a quote, I can't remember who I, I
should attribute it to, but someone in the NHS saying that
the 20th century was the century of the clinician and the 21st
century is going to be the century of the system, right?
That's how they're thinking about this.
The system is going to take control.
And actually, again, as Debbie's described earlier in the news,
our clinicians, nurses, doctors, this also extends into the
education system, the civil service.
They don't really know what they're doing.
They're just doing what they're told by the system, by the
artificial intelligence, by the algorithms that are being used
to implement global governance. Ultimately, right now, who's
behind this? These people are behind this,
The Rothschild Foundation, AKA Yed Hannadie, the people who
built of these two buildings, the Israeli Supreme Court, which
we can see in the foreground, including the little Masonic
temple on the left hand side. I think there's definitely some
symbolism in there. There's a pyramid with an eye at
the top of it you can see in the foreground.
And then also the the Knesset parliament in the background,
which I think gives us a real clue here about who's pulling
the strings on AI governance, but also about what they call
responsible investment. Where is institutional money
being directed in order to reshape and redirect the
economic system globally? What is the economic system
going to look like? They're dictating this from the
top down. It is being disseminated through
these organisations, these networks who meet at places like
Gold's House, and it's all being coordinated and directed by.
The UN Sustainable Development Goals, We're going to see a lot
more of this next year, not least because as we've reported
extensively over the past couple of weeks, Tortoise Media has
just bought the world's oldest Sunday newspaper, The Observer,
which has been going for 233 years.
And actually beyond that, they've entered into a strategic
partnership ultimately and really a merger in many ways
with the Scott Trust, the owns Guardian Media Group.
And Tortoise Media is now going to be hitting the news stands
next year. They're getting into print,
they're going to be building their online presence, they're
going to be investing heavily. And this is all about leading
the progressive liberal narrative, which is the
narrative being used to implement these new economic and
political systems around the world.
All of this, of course, is being done in the name of democracy.
They talk about this a lot, liberal democracy.
This is the term I brought up time and again this year.
And if we read between the lines a little bit, I think this means
that we can do whatever we want if enough people go along with
it. And that's why controlling the
narrative is so important. That's why owning the
relationship with younger generations is so important.
That's why dividing the population up into these little
warring factions is so important, so that we can just
get people to sign up to whatever we want them to without
too much scrutiny. This is a message being pushed
right from the top, right? And I introduced you back in
June, end of June, to this fella.
This is Daniel Sachs, a Swedish businessman who is also
affiliated with the Bilderberg Group, the Council on Foreign
Relations, Chatham House, Open Societies.
He's dictating terms to giving the marching orders to the
liberal progressive political elite, the likes of Jacinda
Ardern, Justin Trudeau, even our own political leaders as I'll
come into a moment. He's been supported in this by
his natty little sidekick, this fellow Paul Alakon, who believes
the world was created for him and is a Obama leader for
Europe, a very powerful and influential man behind the
scenes. And also these 3 ladies, Pooja
Warrior Hamilton, Lisa Witter, Robin Scott, all three of these
women are young global leaders of the World Economic Forum, as
is Daniel Sachs by the way, right?
So you can see how these people are brought into groups like the
World Economic Forum, like the Young Global Leaders Programme,
are aligned around the shed set of objectives.
And then they are sent out into society, into the economic
system, into the political system in order to frankly wreak
havoc so that they can implement their new international system
of control. They're doing that through this
organization. For me, this is probably
alongside tool to one of the biggest stories of the year.
For me personally, I think one of the most important groups of
people to be aware of when understanding what's going on in
the political system and what they're actually trying to
implement. So this is a political
foundation for global governance.
This is the way that I read it. And they're operating in 170
countries. It's a naked power grab.
They're stealing democracy. They're breaking traditional
power structures. This is just one component of
this democracy flywheel where effectively they're
manufacturing, manufacturing consent for whatever it is that
they want to do. Yeah, and there are huge amounts
of money being flooded into this.
And it's really focused around the UK at the moment.
A political actually operate out of London and Berlin as they've
got 2 offices in each of those cities.
So a lot of this is being coordinated from here, but
they're using the UK as a test case.
And we revealed this back in October that Catherine Day here,
who is from the Cabinet Office, announced that she is
essentially handing responsible possibility for developing the
30 year vision for the country over to these people.
You know, the World Economic Forum and the young global
leaders that we've just talked about are taking ownership of
developing the future vision for this country.
And this is corporate state capture, right?
The globalists have taken control.
This is not a maybe, this is not a conspiracy theory.
This has happened. They have announced it, yeah.
So we're going to see how this develops over the coming months.
And 2025 is absolutely the year where this is going to ramp up,
right. So at this point, Open
Societies, the Gates Foundation, the Bilderberg Group, the
Council on Foreign Relations, they are in direct control of
the UK. Yeah, that's what we've, that's
what we have shown you this year.
And that is what is going to define a lot of what we're
talking about next year. Now, how are they getting away
with this? Well, first of all, just total
apathy, frankly, on the part of the electorate.
A lot of people are just completely disengaged from the
political process. They've been disappointed.
They've been lied to, and they just don't see that there's any
solution within the current setup.
And actually, in many ways, I tend to agree with them.
But I don't think just allowing these people to roll on with
their plans is a particularly positive or constructive
solution. They've also completely
infiltrated the institutions. The civil service is gone.
The political classes have gone. The city, frankly, is gone.
The corporations have gone. They've all been taken over by
this managerial elite who are set on implementing the single
system of global governance. And they've done a great job of
dividing us up, as I've kind of touched on already, in order to
push this through, right? And this divide and rule
approach, The strategy is as old as time itself.
It's what the Romans used to do in their empire in order to
divide up native populations and get them warring with each other
so that the Romans could just sit on the sidelines, referee
the conflict, collect taxes, and carry on running their empires.
Exactly the same approach that we can see here.
And what are the dividing lines? Well, it's gender, it's race,
it's generational divides. And I'm going to touch on a
couple of these. Haven't got a huge, huge amount
of time, but there's just two examples that I want to draw
people's attention back to because I think they're
particularly interesting and important and actually
apolitical itself run by women, as we've established sits in
this ecosystem as a taster here of this network of high-powered
women in politics, business and what they call civil society.
Backed by these organisations who are conspiring with each
other globally to radically transform global governance and
economic activity. And a lot of this is centred
around this organization. I'm going to talk about a little
bit now. Vital Voices, a supposed non
profit founded on the simple idea that nations and
communities cannot move forward without women's voices in
leadership positions. We must be led by these women,
backed by global corporations and philanthropic funds.
Founded by Hillary Clinton no less that that lovely lady
Hillary. She founded Vital Voices, and
this sits at the epicentre of US imperial power in Washington, DC
some might say Zionist power in Washington, DC And it actually
started life as an internal programme of the US State
Department. Yeah.
So when Hillary Clinton was actually first lady.
Yeah. So it was started in 1997, Vital
Voices and it flipped over to becoming a non partisan, non
profit in around 2000 and five, 2006.
But this is AUS government programme right at its core.
This is the US deep state projecting imperial power
through networks of female leaders that is set up around
the world. And that goes directly to the
heart of a political foundation. And the transformation of the
British state. Yeah, not just the British
state, global governance with Britain as the lab, the test
case for how they're going to roll that out internationally.
Yeah. Absolutely astonishing.
The scope of this. Yeah.
It's it's, it's really mind blowing when when you get into
it. How else are we being divided
up? I think the generational thing
is extraordinarily important. Well, they're all important, but
I'm just going to touch on the generational 1 today.
I'm going to redraw your attention to this organization
again. I've spoken about them a lot
this year, but they're going to keep on coming up.
This is extraordinarily important as it relates to what
they call Gen. Z.
This is my life, my Say, the supposedly organic, independent,
nonpartisan charity which actually is directly linked to
and backed by the Tony Blair Foundation, the Mayor of London,
the US State Department via the US Embassy in London.
So you can see the American empire here pulling the pulling
the OR should I say the Anglo American empire.
Actually, I think it's probably a more accurate way of
describing it. MI six are in the building.
NCS is in the building with David Cameron, 2 branches of the
Rothschild family, including the, the Rothschild family in
Paris and then the Rothschild family via Tortoise Media.
They're also in the building plus a whole bunch of other
people, right? I mean, the, the, the, the
amount of activity and interest and investment circulating
around my life. My say is absolutely
extraordinary. It's originally founded by this
fellow Methi Cobain MBE. He's not there anymore.
He's moved on to bigger, greater things as deputy Mayor of London
for Energy and environment, as well as also being an Obama
leader for Europe this year. And they are getting on ready to
get on the road. So they're going to be
delivering in February this Democracy Cafe roadshow.
And we talked a lot about devolution and the
transformation of local governance over the past few
weeks. And my life, my say are going to
be manufacturing consent for this with Gen.
Z through this kind of activity. This is just the starting point.
So from February, they're going to be in Sheffield, Oxford,
Brighton, Eastbourne, Spen Valley, on the ground, getting
the kids together, having a coffee, having a chat, getting
them to sign up to whatever they can get away with ultimately,
Yeah. And if it's anything like the
events that they run in London, there'll be an age limit.
You won't be able to go to it if you're if you're over 30 years
old. Yeah.
So this is the the global technocratic class really
sinking their claws into the younger generation and it's
extraordinarily cynical and extraordinarily dangerous.
And it's not just happening in the UK, this is internationally.
So this was just today, right? So you've got the new boss of my
life, my say in the centre there.
That's a guy we've spoken about a bit previously, photo called
Dan Laws. There we go, little red arrow
pointing to Mr. Laws. And he said it was a privilege
to host a round table with the Duchess of York.
And the Royal family are right in on this game, the UN
assistant general secretary, the Foreign Commonwealth Development
Office, charity leaders and young campaigners on youth
participation at the UN. So this this organization, these
individuals are talking about how young people are going to
get more actively involved in global governance at the UN.
I'll carry on with the quote from Mr. Laws.
He's excited to work with all the stakeholders present to
ensure that we do more to meaningfully engage with young
people in UN processes, starting with the introduction of a youth
delegate program that amplifies a diverse range of voices from
across the UK. And it is certainly a diverse
range of voices. Just take a look at the faces
that you can see there in the background.
I don't know if that's necessary representative of the whole of
the British population, if I'm being honest.
Dan Laws, Sarah Ferguson, what are you up to people?
And who do we see lurking in the background?
That is Ryan Wayne, who is one of the chief lieutenants for
this fella. Sorry, I'm going to have to
bring him back in frame because he's extraordinarily important.
Tony Blair, a monster of delusion.
He can't say sorry for Iraq. He killed 1,000,000 people.
We made decisions that led to the unnecessary deaths of a
million people, but he'd do it again.
He doesn't care. He's right in the middle of the
corporative system. He's advising Labour to talk to
Google. We're going to talk a lot more
about a big tech next year, by the way, because they're really,
really coming into the forefront, particularly as it
relates to things like education.
Yeah. So Google in particular, but
also Meta and, and, and Amazon are basically building the rails
upon which the global system is going to run.
And they've created a whole ecosystem of start-ups and
investment communities and other kind of misdirections to to to
mask the fact that that's actually what's happening.
And Blair absolutely sits at the forefront of it.
It's a huge public, private marketplace.
He's making loads of money. And ultimately this is about
implementing a system of totalitarian control.
We spoke about this last week. He's saying that there needs to
be a once in a generation disruption.
That's what's coming down the track, and that's all about
implementing digital identity cards for access to every single
component part of society. This is their big plan for 2025.
This is why they're investing so much money in getting the
younger people to sign up to this program.
And let's have a little listen now to Alexander Iasad from the
Tony Blair Foundation, who's going to explain why digital
identity is so important and such a great thing for Britain.
Now I'm speaking with Alexander from the TBI and Alex.
We were just talking about digital ID and I really liked
the point she made that you said the two keywords that summed up
your position were ambition and focus.
So can you tell me more about? That.
Oh, I think the boards kind of speak for themselves, don't
they? When it comes to society, I
think the debate has been one. We do need one.
The question is when do we deliver it and how do we deliver
it? And we need to be ambitious
about what we do with it. We need to be ambitious about
when we deliver it. It's something that would really
help fix public services of this country, could really help Dr.
modernization of the state. And in order to do that well, we
need to focus on it. We can't just let it slide and
Chuck alone on its own. You need to really get to grip
with issues. Yeah.
And obviously the TBI works with in a lot of different countries.
So one of the things that I was really taken by was how you
wanted to be really practical and say we know this is
possible. I think that's a really
important aspect to bring to the debate.
So do you want to highlight, you know?
One or two good. Examples of places that have
pulled this off. And that people tend to talk
about Estonia or Singapore, who you'd expect to have a good
digital idea and they do. Or Denmark, rich countries that
seem to have their grip on technical technology.
But there are other countries that have massive, like India,
where a billion, the 1 1/2 billion people have been
enrolled in a digitalized system successfully and that's being
used every day by so many of them.
Or Ukraine who implemented their digital ID system in the middle
of the war. And you talk to any Ukrainian
you know, and they'll show you their digital ID app and they'll
say, why don't you have this here in the UK?
So the debate has been won and the question now is purely about
when and how we implement this digital ID system.
Apparently we've got to be ambitious, according to
Alexander, I said from the Tony Blair Foundation, and we need to
emulate countries like Estonia, Singapore, India, Ukraine in
order to bring this thing into our society as quickly as
possible. So that's what we're going to
look forward to in 2025. I had a couple more slides, but
we've seemed to jump past those. Shall I, Shall I hand over now?
Yeah, let's, let's, let's move on.
Thank you for that, Diane. Let's come on to you.
Yep. Thanks Mike and Brian and, and
everyone here with me today. I'm, I'm really happy to be here
for a Christmas special. I just had to do something a
little bit different. And basically, I wanted to give
you an example of my own work in photojournalism, which is not
something I always have a chance to do.
And, you know, sort of strict reporting that we do on regular
news segments. So what the audience might not
know about me is that I actually have a background in photo, in
photojournalism with a PhD and as a librarian by profession.
What I wanted to study in my PhD was to figure out how
photojournalists and photo editors working for mainstream
newspapers like to search for and describe their photos and
their online archives to find them later.
But one of the things that they wanted to talk about, which is
not even what I had asked about, was how the media uses the
images to lie and manipulate, which we already know.
If you watch, you can call them. You're, I'm sure you're aware of
that. But what you might not know,
though, is that the photojournalists who do this
sometimes feel guilty because they know that they're lying to
the public. And they also sometimes get
angry because the work is selected and manipulated by the
editors and the ways that they think will best sell the news or
create whatever sensationalism, not necessarily what the
photojournalist saw when they were on the site where they were
taking the photos. And yeah, I really have found
through this PhD and through my years of kind of becoming my own
photojournalist that the media and the lies that we see are are
one thing. But if we actually pay attention
to our surroundings and what is going on around us, we can learn
so much about the world. And we don't necessarily need to
watch the news anywhere or, or look at media to figure out what
the world is trying to do to us. So what I've decided to do for
my segment today is to create a segment of basically a photo
from my my own personal collection of either photos or
screenshots that I've taken throughout the year.
So I've chosen one per month and they're all mine except for one
video which we will come to in a few months in August.
So here's my January photo and I was just at the GPS office, in
the loo at the NHS Lothian office and this was on the back
of the door and it said if you have had a positive pregnancy
test and don't want to continue the pregnancy, we're here to
help you. There are different ways you can
be referred to us to discuss a termination, including
contacting us yourself. And it gives them details,
including a website for NHS Lothian which refers to
pregnancy termination along with the phone number and the hours
that you can reach them. And I took this because I
thought, you know, is the NHS really trying to make us healthy
or are they really actually potentially somehow contributing
to the the degrowth in the depopulation agenda that we have
seen in other areas of the NHS for the past few years?
In February, I participated in the Fernethi conference, the
second Fernethi conference that was sponsored by people from UK
column. And this made the front page of
the Glasgow Times in February. After the conference took place
and you can see the big headline, there was fresh hope
for Fernethi House Survivors. And this was really an amazing
piece of work for me to do because this work with Fernethi
is what has I think basically given me my place here on the UK
column team, which I am incredibly grateful for.
And I want to thank Mike and Brian and Debbie and all my
fabulous colleagues here who helped me get into working with
UK column. But this was actually the work
that I started with doing. The column was working as a
researcher when I was just sort of in the background and kind of
getting information together for these amazing group of ladies.
And what the piece of information that I found that
was so key, which made the front page of the newspaper, was that
these women, when they were at the Panetta Residential School,
were in fact in care of the state, specifically the
education committee of First Glasgow Corporation, which then
became Strathclyde Regional Council, which is now Glasgow
City Council. At that time, from around 1960
to around 1991, it was a residential school where the
children were in fact removed from the care of their parents
and abused in every horrible way that we can think possible.
It was not a holiday camp or for convalescence, which which is
what the Scottish Government and the and so on tried to say to
get out of, you know, providing the women justice that they're
currently still trying to seek. This is a very important point
for the petition because what Shona Robinson, who was deputy
first minister in Scotland at the time, was trying to say,
well, they were there for convalescence or for a holiday,
but actually they were not. They were under the care of the
state when this horrible abuse happened to them.
So you can imagine certain people in Scottish Government
Parliament were not with what I did at the time, but I was very
pleased with myself and pleased for the ladies for the progress
that we were able to make for them.
So as I said, this all set things into action.
This was a very pivotal thing obviously in my life, in my
career as a result of the cancellation I've been through
academically. And I just want to thank all of
you again and including the viewers for contributing to what
seems to have been so far a successful run for me at UK
column. And please may along continue.
In March, I was at WH Smith local bookshop, and I always
sort of check out the children's section to see what kind of
stupid things they're throwing at our children that they
shouldn't be. So this was just one particular
example I found of a picture book, which is part of a very
popular series of picture books. This one is called Puggy Corn
and the Love Bug. And there's a whole series of
different animals and they all feature rainbow flags of some
sort on them. In this case, we have a pug with
a, a Unicorn horn as well as a rainbow tail.
And I'll just say on the back cover part of the description
says a sparkling tale of kindness that shows it's always
more fun when everyone is included.
And of course, we know from the a lot of reporting that I've
been doing around the the gender issues and so on that when we
talk about inclusion in terms of EDI, inclusion actually means
exclusion. This was a photograph I took in
April at a university here in Edinburgh, which is at the
bottom of a staircase. And you see the footsteps
saying, keep social distance, please stand here.
And it just made me realize, you know, going back to some of the
things that Debbie was showing earlier from what we saw 2020
and 2021, we still see fragments and remnants of this past.
If we look carefully, these signs are still in random
places. There's paints on the ground.
And it just makes, you know, just, I see those occasionally.
And I think, wow, are we ever really going to clean up this
rubbish that is still sort of infiltrating everything around
us? In May, I was in Sheffield for a
meeting for work and I was just walking around the city center.
It was a really interesting trip because I didn't I didn't know
anything about what was going on at the Crucible, which was in
fact the World Snooker Championship, which was not what
I was expecting. And people making jokes about
cue balls going places that I didn't understand at all.
It was very interesting but this was something that I saw painted
in a window that said sending love to our trans, non binary
and otherwise GNC pals in Sheffield and beyond.
So again, inclusion is exclusion.
The people in that particular club get love, the rest of us
apparently don't get any love. In June I went to Plymouth and
the Southwest for the first time, including my first visit
to the UK Column studio. Did my first news in the studio
with Brian which was an amazing experience and I did some side
trips around that time including driving all the way out to
Land's End. Which I will say Land's End is
not nearly as nice as John at Groats, where parking is still
free and they don't charge you to take a picture of the
signpost, which they do at Land's End.
And this was just a photo that I saw, You know, looking at our
coverage of Southwest Water, the pollution in the water, all the
things that Debbie does an amazing job of covering.
And I'll just read some of this out.
This is from the Rain Peninsula Beach Care, which is outside of
Plymouth. And it says, what are you
flushing away? And we see sort of these pieces
of rubbish kind of, in my opinion, kind of ranged as sort
of a rainbow flag sort of situation.
Plastic cotton bud sticks, tampon applicators, wet wipes,
napkies, sanitary towels, toothpaste, caps, condoms, these
all washed up on our beaches and can kill marine life.
They cause blockages that raise our water bills too.
Pee poo, paper in the loo, everything else in the bin.
And you see the Southwest Water logo included others that are
features featured on the advert. So of course they don't get into
the E coli and the Cryptosporidium and everything
else that the actual problems that have been reported on
throughout the year. But this was just, I thought a
very interesting, interesting visual trying to really people
make people really not enjoy the beach in July.
This is just at my local shopping center where they still
have a vaccination center in HS Lothian.
And this was on a Sunday when they happened to be closed.
Now we're back into December and when I've been there when it's I
think they're open seven days a week now.
And this vaccination Dr. is full on fully, you know, people
queuing up all the time. You see the observation areas,
you see everything where people are just sort of swamping the
whole situation. So now we get into August,
August, I went to a conference on the end of Western
civilization, which was monumental for me in a lot of
ways. But I don't think that's the
story that it it for me. This particular video is
representative of the entire year.
This is from the Democratic National Committee, not the
convention because we weren't at that point yet.
This was streamed on a Friday afternoon UK time on the 2nd of
August, which makes it qualify for my my August choice of the
month. We will see.
First, we'll see Jamie Harrison, the chair of the Democratic
National Committee. And this was a very significant
thing because if we look at how the primary elections were done
with all of the delegates originally for the primary
election first going to what was supposed to have been Biden,
Harris, and then getting transferred magically to Harris.
And then eventually Tim Walz, which goes against every
election rule in in the book, as far as as I know.
And, and this was a kind of a sneaky video that was put
undercover. And I, I would just play a quick
a clip of this and then we'll talk about it for just a moment
after. Your vote is important.
It will go towards your state's roll call at the in person
convention and it will show the. Strength and unity of this
party. So folks, don't let your fellow
Democrats down and be sure to get your ballot in before Monday
at 6:00 PM Eastern Time. Together, we will rally around
Vice President Kamala Harris. And demonstrate the strength of
our party as the nation tunes into Chicago and all of us here
at the United Senate. And I can assure on August 19th
this will no longer be a construction zone, my friends.
But listen, I I think I am. Am I?
Getting a call. Or Jamie.
Call right now, yes. Jamie is the.
Future president of the United. States Kamala.
Harris Hello. Hello.
President. Hi, Jamie and everyone,
everyone. Hello, hello, Hello.
Jamie. I just in front of all the
friends, I want to thank you for all that you have been doing.
Your leadership at the Democratic National Committee,
the DNC has been extraordinary. And I know how hard you work.
So Jamie, thank you for everything that you are doing.
And to everyone on the call, thank you for your hard work and
all you have been doing over these last many, many, many
months. And I know that we are excited
about the future, but we also know that we got a lot of work
to get there and we have a lot of work to do.
It's good work. We like hard work.
And, and I just want to thank everyone for joining this call.
Listen, I think we all approach our campaign with the same
spirit, including that this is truly a people powered campaign.
And I would not be on this call right now and with you all were
it not for your support and your trust, or which I am deeply
grateful. I am honored to be the
presumptive Democratic nominee for President of the United
States. So of course, if we know
anything about how American elections work, the prime at the
primary election stage, we have the Democratic Committee
convention and we have the Republican Committee convention.
And so this one was done virtually.
And the delegates were just emailing in their responses.
And this is a 40 minute live stream.
So that's just two minutes of it.
But if you watched the first part of it, you see all the
people hard at work receiving everyone's emails and they're
encouraging the delegates to send in the emails and please
send in your result. This is really, really
important. Of course, none of the results
were for Kamala Harris anyway. But then they were, they had
this sort of screen in the background where these two
individuals, very diverse looking young people were
tracking the, the, the March to 2350 delegates, which is the
number of delegates required to secure the nomination, which of
course Biden, Harris had all of them.
But we see just the bad production, the fakeness.
You probably heard it must have been a producer or somebody
coming over from the background when when JB Harrison was still
on screen mean he wasn't really sure if Kamala was getting a
call. He's like, am I getting a call?
What's going on? And and so the reason I'd show
this is because it's funny, but it's also not funny because we
saw how badly done the whole thing was.
And I just think the the fakery in all of it and, and the fact
that, you know, it just happened right at the moment when Kamala
Harris made her phone call was exactly the point when they
reached 2350 delegates and the most amazing coincidence you've
ever heard of. So I just think for a lot of
reasons that is quite representative.
A lot of what we saw in 2024, not just in the States, but
around around the world really and kind of the reporting of
what people do and really how badly done some of it is,
unfortunately. So I'll leave you all to think
about that a bit. And I believe the full video is
in the show notes if you want to see all 40 minutes of the
cringeworthy coverage. So in September, I really don't
understand what this means, but it was a sign that I saw hanging
up in my local Boots and it said our future health.
What does that mean? What about our current health?
I'm sure Debbie could help us answer those questions, but it's
it apparently seems to be a very important piece of propaganda
for NHS Scotland because I see it everywhere and when I
whenever I go into different Boots locations.
This was a sign I saw on a university campus, a butterfly
on fire and it says there is no planet B with the word plan in
red or orange letters and planet B all together.
So I don't really know what to make of that, but it's not a
very calming thing to kind of see.
But it just goes to show you the fear campaign goes into
universities, which is supposed to be a place of truth and and
finding information and evidence.
But the fact is the net zero campaign is full on throughout
all of our universities in the UK because of the funding bodies
who are comes from WEF and UN and of course the government and
Davos and everyone who pays money for universities, of
course, fully on with this. So this has infiltrated British
universities as well, unfortunately.
And so here we have from October.
This was, well, this was Leo Kierce who did a tweet around
the 80th anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy.
And he wrote, please wear this in honor of all the
transgenders, transgender soldiers who stormed the
Normandy beaches in high heels and plastic wigs.
And he had a, a poppy next to a transgender flag.
And so just to bring us up into the, the last month or so, I've
been playing around with different AI tools just to see
how they work and, and sometimes they, they work and sometimes
they don't work very well. This is the Grok AI from Twitter
and I just typed in it. Could you please create a meme
with the account Diane UKC, which is my, my Twitter handle.
And it came up with this woman with long blonde hair smiling.
That's fairly accurate thing. I am a woman, full stop.
Tried #dartmog for a day couldn't cope, but I can't
possibly imagine why she's holding a glass of wine.
That's certainly not representative of me at all, is
it? So that's my year in review.
I think I have a message for 2025 which will be coming later
on in the news. So I hope you enjoyed my photo
Jerusalem essay and, and sort of a, a, a journey into what my
year has been like. And again, I want to thank all
of you at UK Column for giving me this wonderful opportunity
and I do hope it continues into the future.
So thank you all very much. Thank you, Dan.
Right. Let's come on to me then.
And well, just going to very briefly run through the
censorship that we've seen this year and the censorship agenda
has progressed this year. So let's bring this on first
because we go back to January. Then we had online abusers can
now face prosecution for new criminal offences.
And I just wanted to remind you all about this aspect of the
Online Safety Act because it's not one that gets a huge amount
of coverage. I've mentioned it a few times
this year, but but it doesn't get a huge amount of coverage
anywhere else. So let's just remember that in
under section 179, a person commits an offence if they if
they send a message conveying information that they know to be
false. And at the time of sending it,
they intend the message to cause non trivial psychological or
physical harm to a likely audience.
And as we've mentioned many times, we don't really
understand how you make that judgement.
But OK, that's what they say. But just to remind everybody
that of course the BBC supporting terrorists doesn't
need to worry about that because a recognized news publisher
cannot commit that offence of any kind of false communication
at all. And no matter what psychological
effect it might have on anybody, indeed anybody with a license
under the Broadcasting Act 1990 or 1996 cannot commit that
offence either. February, March, sort of time we
started seeing Ofcom publishing the results of various
consultations so that this one was protecting people from
illegal harms online. This is the first of four major
consultations. They said that, but this was the
one that when they introduced the idea that it, that the
regulation wouldn't just apply to the big platforms like
Facebook and Twitter and so on, and it might apply to smaller
services, including those provided by small and micro
businesses. And then we had the draft
guidance for pornography providers that appeared in
March, April time, which brought in the digital ID agenda because
of course, age assurance, in order to protect children, we've
got to have insurance on adult websites.
And in order to provide age assurance, you've got to provide
some kind of identity, which might include digital identity,
wallets, open banking, photo ID matching, age estimation based
on face biometrics, mobile operator checks, credit cards,
all considered to be highly effective age assurance.
So the digital ID agenda filtering through via the Online
Safety Act as well. Earlier in the year we had the
whole hit issue arising and of course the absolute appalling
situation in Scotland with the Scottish Government think it was
appropriate to bring this cartoon character, the so-called
hate monster out in order to promote this idea of hate crimes
on or even hate comments online that needed to be fought
against. And this was such an such a
backlash to this. In fact, they had to kill the
hate monster, which is very unfortunate for them.
But then as we headed into the year, in the middle of the year
or so, we had the whole conversation about whether we're
going to ban encrypted chat because encryption is a major
source of dodgy material being passed from one person to
another. And of course, children again,
being used to see poster children.
Sorry for for this because they are the government claiming that
encrypted chat being one of the main mechanisms for for
transferring child child pornography around the place.
So this narrative seems to have drifted away a little bit, and
the pressure on encryption seems to have fallen off a little bit,
but it will come back, I have no doubt.
Sorry, let's go back then. Sorry, I've just messed that up
a little bit. Here we go.
Then we started seeing prison sentences being rolled out for
people that were alleged to be rioting, but not just for people
that were rioting, but for people that were holding signs.
And of course we saw some people dying in prison from following
suicide as a result of this type of thing.
So the British government very keen to make sure that more than
1000 people had been arrested for rioting, ostensibly on
immigration issues, but and hate speech was a very big part of
this Britain. Then we started seeing the
headlines in the press that the Online Safety Act wasn't really
fit for purpose because it wasn't having much an effect
yet. So we had headlines like this
from CNBC or what is the Online Safety Act and why have riots
reopened debates about it in the conversation The Guardian what
is the Online Safety Act and what powers will provide?
And they were talking about it not really providing enough Holy
rood here on line 50 act not fit for purpose and so on.
So you know, we just saw headline after headline really
trying to reinforce this idea that it's not fit for purpose
because it isn't hasn't been implemented yet and it doesn't
go far enough even if it had been implemented and so on.
So as a result of that pressure of COM wrote an open letter to
the various online service providers.
But it as in parallel with that so that if that if we considered
that as being an attack on what we're being described as right
wing extremists and we had similar attacks on people on the
left of politics. So Richard Medhurst being the
first to be arrested under the Terrorism Act for allegedly
support being supportive of a prescribed organization, in this
case Hamas for being pro Palestinian.
As we've seen many, many times or talked about recently quite a
lot that the idea of expressing an opinion or belief that
support of of a prescribed organization equally applies to
the BBC, to many politicians and to civil servants for that
matter. And of course they aren't being
arrested, interrogated, held put on bail for their comments with
respect to what's been going on in Syria.
And then in the meantime, as the year progressed, we got some
more information about 77 Brigade coming out in UK Defence
Journal and their activities and how much it was costing the
taxpayer over the years. And we see that currently they
have somewhere in the region 14 and a half, £1,000,000 a year
budget at the moment. The UK Defence Journal article
also mentioned this organization, the Defence
Cultural Specialist Unit within the Brigade, which was
specifically tasked with monitoring Internet content
related to COVID-19 vaccines. Now, we've been talking about
this for a very long time. Just to remind everybody what
the Defence Cultural Specialist Unit was, it was made-up of
reverse reservists, sorry, and civilian analysts.
It was deployed originally to Afghanistan and Iraq.
It was later deployed within the EU.
Sorry. Yes, thank you.
Within the UK, and this is part of the integrated operating
concept, the all distinction between foreign and domestic
defence is increasingly irrelevant.
But the question was what was the, what was 77 Brigade
particularly doing domestically and so on.
And of course, this came really to head, we've been talking
about it in for for a couple of years, but it came to head in
2023 in January, I think it was, or February.
And Ben Wallace was forced to make a statement about it in the
House of Commons. And he, this was as a result of
a question asked by David Davis. He had to say, I've already
instructed that we not only look into the story of 77 brigades
domestic activities, but check that the instructions that I
issued after a visit were carried out.
Now this statement from Ben Wallace in the House of Commons
came about following the Big Brother Watch expose of this
situation. And my question then was, well,
what were these instructions that Ben Wallace was referring
to in the House of Commons? And so I've we've been pursuing
that via frame of information over the last little while.
And the answer came just a week or so ago.
And this is what Ben Wallace had written as part of an e-mail 277
Brigade. And he said, as per our
discussion, defence personnel should continue to restrict
their domestic support to the identification, assessment and
internal reporting of disinformation.
Now, just so we understand each other, domestic support is the
support that 77 Brigade was providing to the other
government agencies because they were embedded in the Cabinet
Office, in the Department for Digital, Cultural Media and
Sport and so on. So we put that just back up on
screen there for a second. So as per our discussion,
defense personnel should continue to restrict their
domestic support to the identification, assessment and
internal reporting of disinformation, which he defined
in the e-mail as information which is created or disseminated
with a deliberate intent to mislead, and misinformation
which he defined as the inadvertent sharing of false
information. So that was the instruction that
he gave to 77 Brigade. He implied in a statement in the
House of Commons that basically told them to stop what they were
doing. In fact, he told them to
continue what they were doing and Simply put, restated the
scope of their activity. So they are continuing, I have
no doubt because I've seen nothing to the contrary at this
stage. They're continuing to operate
domestically. They're continuing to spy on
what we're doing, what everybody's doing on social
media and so on. And, and just to remind you,
they are part and parcel of this government censorship network.
Now, this diagram I've shown many, many times, it's a bit out
of date now, doesn't really matter.
It gives the overall an idea of the kind of infrastructure that
the UK government has set up on this and continues to operate.
And so looking forward to 2025, more of the same.
We've got to take the fight to them.
We have already started that process with our activities on
dealing with the Online Safety Act.
We'll have much, much more to say about that in the next month
or two. But yeah, much more of this kind
of activity in the next 12 months.
Charles, at last, let's welcome you to the program.
Thanks very much Mike and Brian and indeed to everybody watching
for sticking with us over slightly extended format.
A year ago I speculated that 2024 would see the use to great
effect of some of the new legislation that was pushed
through Parliament in the year 2023 and that there might be
civil disobedience in the UK. And I would say that I was half
right, which makes me nearly far right.
But to say civil disobedience, obviously not quite right.
There was certainly what was described as violent disorder.
We will continue to speculate, I suppose, as to exactly why it
came about and who was involved and where they came from.
But on the legislation front, there was certainly some use of
what had been pushed through in 2023, as Mike says, most notably
the Online Safety Act, which of course is very much tied into
the to the violent disorder back in the summer of this year.
But more notably, the use of the Public Order Act in dealing with
the violence disorder aspect of it.
And indeed, those Sections 4 through to five, which deal with
effectively the system being turned on its head and either a
supposed victim or indeed the criminal justice system deciding
on somebody's intent without actually having to really prove
anything. And most egregiously, the
weaponization of the terror legislation, specifically the
Terrorism Act 2000. As Mikes already said, Section
12, support for prescribed organization, Schedule 7, and
indeed in actual fact, I believe, Section 1, where it
concerns activities for the benefit of a prescribed
organization. Of course, that was dealt with
in two ways. One was to target by means of
censorship people who were conducted in activities that I
would certainly describe as journalism, but also on the
other side, to absolutely let through the gates all those
sorts of communications that were deemed to be following the
establishment narrative, exactly like Mike's just said with the
with the BBC. Now, in terms of 2024, I would
have characterized it as the year of the extremist.
It was back in March that we had handed down to us a new
definition of extremism and within that definition there was
quite a lot of fluff either side of it.
But they specifically made mention of the holding of a
belief, regardless of its substance, it being rightly
protected under law. Now, this was something that
turned out not really to be true as the year pushed on and
critically highlighted that this is because the government are
deciding that they must seek to limit the reach of these
extremist ideologies. So in continuing to ask the
question, are you an extremist, the government are telling us
that it leads to radicalization of individuals to deny other
people their full rights and indeed it can lead to acts of
terrorism. So there was an enormous amount
of conflation going on. They wounded up by saying there
are concerns that those expressing conservative views
will be classified as extremist. This is not the case.
I would refute that totally. I think the events of 2024 have
borne out that the government have been extremely disingenuous
where this has been concerned. And the police and the remainder
of the criminal justice system have actively expanded the
bounds continually of extremism. In order that incorporates and
includes an enormous number of people for for several reasons,
which I'll come on to in a little bit.
But just to go into the censorship side of it, and
indeed the way in which legislation can be manipulated
and weaponized, this is the Schedule 7, which is the
authority of police within ports, so airports and indeed
seaports anywhere that people might be entering or leaving the
country. And just to remind you that the
examination under Schedule 7 is not conditional upon having
grounds to suspect that the person of sorry to suspect that
person of being engaged in terrorism.
But the decision must not be arbitrary.
Of course, if the decision did turn out to be arbitrary, there
is no comeback. Also, it is worth pointing out
that there is no right to silence in the detention and
examination under Schedule seven of the Terrorism Act 2000.
And there were many, many journalists who were effectively
taken to one side for absolutely arbitrary reasons, and they were
not in any way remotely likely to have been involved in the
Commission of terrorist activities.
The point of including terrorism in a section about extremism is
that extremism has now been used as a blanket definition within
which anybody who says anything against the establishment, the
government, the corporate, the globalist narrative may be first
of all demonized. And then of course, their
protestations may be used as a form of propaganda.
Because the moment somebody is referred to as being an
extremist and that is linked to a particular topic, the their
point of view is of course rubbished, which creates much
further divisions in society. And just to exemplify the way in
which that's used by the media, this is from July where the BBC
put out an article saying that conspiracy theories swirl about
geoengineering, but could it help save the planet?
So in effect, what they were doing there was to suggest that
anybody challenging the climate change narrative was by virtue
of the fact that they were holding something called a
conspiracy theory, they were pushed into being an extremist,
which has the double effect of making people believe in climate
change as a concept, as in man made climate change.
But also makes people less likely to trust those that would
question it. And this is something that has
persisted very much through the course of this year.
Now the other thing, the other big development as as I've seen
it in the in the sort of environmental side of things,
has been the enormous push towards the creation of fear
around what's described as being pathogens of zoonotic origins.
So the idea that it is now possible for not just animals to
make each other ill and apparently in very remote and
unusual circumstances. A slide here showing that
they've said that bird flu has been discovered, described,
discovered in elephant seals. We've just had that back on
screen in the sub Antarctic for the first time.
The extraordinary caption there saying that a member of the
avian virology team sampling a seal.
But the point being that having having tried and tested this
concept with the COVID narrative in making humans fear each
other, now introducing the element of animals being feared,
it's very easy to see how this can be driven far further.
Especially with the climate narrative alongside it.
Or at least central to all of this as the, the bigger cog
driving all of the smaller ones within the machine, including
the Therefore, the ability via the threat of zoonotic disease
to restrict movement, indeed to restrict speech and indeed to
introduce the pharmaceutical interventions that we saw during
the last, well certainly have seen over the last four to five
years. And indeed, critically where
farming is concerned, of course, land use, land ownership and
restricting access to land. So I think many serious issues
that bring going on there. Now in terms of looking ahead to
2025, I would say on the UK column front, I think there's an
awful lot to look forward to in terms of an expansion of content
and indeed the ability to put out or put on more events and
engage further with the audience.
I think it's an awful lot to look forward to on that side of
it. I would say that I think the the
cracks in the net 0 narrative will widen and I think there
will be greater public skepticism about the pursuit of
what is called net zero in the interests of what is being
described as man made climate change.
I think there will be a greater and more evident collapse of
public services in the United Kingdom.
I think there will be greater pressure on there being kinetic
action taken by the armed forces of the UK, most likely in the
Middle East and most likely concerning Iran.
That's a prediction that I would would make there.
And I think also, especially amongst the UK column audience,
I would say that there's there's likely to be a much greater
scrutiny of where people are sourcing food and exactly what's
gone into producing it as we go into a period of increased food
insecurity. So to sort of draw to a close
and finish on a high. I will just go to a quote from
Brave New World by Aldous Huckley written back in 1932, in
which he says a really efficient Italian state would be one in
which the all powerful executive of political bosses and their
army of managers control a population of slaves who do not
have to be coerced because they love their servitude.
Now, assuming that anybody who's tuned into this broadcast will
be of the the opposite mind and will certainly not love any form
of servitude. I would leave you with the
thought that rather than concentrating on what other
people may intend and maybe wanting to do to you and may
think that they can do to you, you should concentrate on what
you can change and control within your life.
And set about dealing with that in order that you maintain the
belief that you will prevail. Because if you cannot cling to
that belief, then prevail feeling will be much, much
harder. Happy Christmas.
Thank you, Charles. Fantastic, Brian.
Well, my goodness, what do I do now?
You ended on a high there with Huxley, so thanks for that job.
What what do I pick up by people's reports?
UK column didn't plan today by having discussions about what we
were covering. It was, it was just a free
question. What did you what did you see
happen in 2024 and how do you see 2025?
And it's fascinating how the team across the board are
describing a mixture of Orwellian state, a dictated, a
dictatorship and Stasi state even we've clearly all been
seeing this thing build throughout 2024.
And I've got to add my Section 2 this now.
For me, 2024 was another year of watching a war, and that was the
Ukrainian war. And I have to say that the
utterly brilliant work by a number of alternative media
commentators and analysts enabled me to be able to see
detail of what was happening in that war on the battlefield on
almost an hour by hour basis. But of course, eventually you
come to the point where you say what you're actually doing is
being a voyeur to a war prosecuted on the ground with
men, some women, mainly men, dying in huge numbers.
Now, of course when we challenged the Ministry of
Defence or one of our viewers challenged the Ministry of
Defence a little while ago about how many British servicemen were
dead in Ukraine, they didn't want to answer.
But the key thing we need to bring up is it's not the few
British servicemen that are. The real issue, however tragic
their deaths are, is the fact that we've got over half a
million dead Ukrainians and Russians in this created proxy
war conflict. And this hasn't happened
accidentally. It hasn't had, it hasn't
happened as a result of organisations, the war and the
carnage has happened as the result of the actions of
militia, malicious and malevolent human beings.
So we need to keep a focus on the fact that if we're going to
deal with what's happening around around us, we've got to
actually understand, see and track the people who are
actually making the policy. Now I'm going to jump to Dominic
Cummings, not so much to blame him for the war in Ukraine, but
we showed this clip a few days ago.
But Cummings with all the criticism about him and do I
trust him? Absolutely not.
But in this video clip, he was telling us something about how
our supposed democracy functions.
Let's have a listen to it again. The person in the So if you
think of 2 worlds right, the foreign secretary in Great
Britain and the private secretary in the P Miss Office
responsible for foreign affairs, an official whose name has never
been in the newspapers. That person was like 10 times
more powerful and important than the Secretary of State was.
And I think this is something which people just don't really
realise and it's part of like how the whole system has just
has become fake. So you have fake meritocracy,
fake responsibility and then fake cabinet government.
So they all walk up Downing St. the cameras word, they pose,
they smile, ha ha, I'm going into the most powerful meeting,
aren't I great? But it's all nonsense.
The cabinet is just the kind of stage theatre and actually
officials in the Cabinet Office have already decided it all.
When you when you sit in Whitehall now I in meetings,
they are literally scripted. So when the Prime Minister has a
meeting with ministers, what happens is that before the Prime
Minister has that meeting, officials go into the prime
minister's study and they give him a folder.
And in the folder at the front is a thing called chairman's
notes. And that's the script.
And that's what the Prime Minister reads out.
And the conclusions for the meeting are in the chairman's
notes drafted before the meeting happens.
So is he telling the truth, his comings, telling the truth in
this video? I firmly believe he is.
He is describing basically a powerless system of MPs who are
controlled by the civil servants around them and they are in turn
controlled by the very powerful corporations and think tanks of
the type that Ben has been describing earlier in the news
today. So this is the power base around
the politicians and these are the individuals who are actually
calling the shots. Now, I'm also going to feature
here the Dean Doris again, because there was a little bit
of push back that I actually covered her exposure of what was
happening inside the system. And some people said, oh, well,
Brian, you clearly don't know what's happening if you've got
to rely on the Dean Doris. My response was you're missing
the point because she was telling the truth to the best of
her ability about what she saw happening in government and we
need to pay attention to what she's saying.
So what sort of comments did she make?
Well she talked about Cummings being the dark Lord because
although he was exposing the way the system is locked up in the
video, he was also part of the dark pond manipulating the
agenda around the politicians. But look at the word she's
using. Sadism, narcissism, psychopathy,
toxic. It was threatening.
So this is a description of the inside of our parliamentary
system and surely we can't be surprised if we see the output
which is ultimately damaged so many people and particularly
target targeted children. Sedition.
Grooming women. Politicisation of the judiciary.
These are extremely important observations because although
I've described her as naive in a number of areas, she's giving us
a real glimpse into the way that this machinery works.
And she agrees with Cummings here that MPs were controlled.
But she goes on to say that Boris was removed in a plot and
that he didn't understand the people around him.
Now, I think there's some truth in that latter statement.
But of course, Boris was being used as a key puppet,
particularly to ensure that the Ukraine war went ahead and there
was no chance of peace deal stopping it.
And the the last bit I thought was particularly significant
because she talked about a system where individuals could
interfere with private papers that were going from her as a
minister through to the Prime Minister, where her choice of a
candidate for the head of Ofcom was swapped.
But presumably somebody friendly to her took the trouble to warn
her what they did, took the trouble to warn her that this
had happened the following morning.
So if this is the cesspit of the so-called democracy we live in,
we've got to really think about who holds the most powerful
control. Now certainly the corporations
do by virtue of the fact that they've got huge amounts of
money and they can fund and control the sorts of think tanks
that Ben has described, putting out the wider policy agendas.
But at the end of the day, immensely powerful people exist
within the so-called security services because of course
they're very operational method is secret and any information
that they come up with, MPs and civil servants alike tend to
believe because they must. Well, it was the Secret Service
that told them it was true. So let's have a look at the
little clip again of the former diplomat from Moscow talking
about the power of our intelligence services.
When he ran MI 6, was he arguably one of the most
powerful people in the British government?
Well, of course he was. Yes, incredibly.
Powerful. And in a very, you know,
clandestine way, you know, the the ability to wield that power
out of out of public scrutiny. And and wield that power over
the Prime Minister. Yeah, yeah.
I mean, you know, when I was in Moscow, Boris Johnson, when he
was foreign Secretary, York Government Secretary of State,
you know, came, you know, to Moscow and you know, the head of
our sort of station, MI 6 station was.
Sucking his teeth. About whether he you know, he
should show Johnson any intelligence and he has agreed
that that he wouldn't and that. Was when our foreign secretary.
Came to the British Embassy in Moscow, you know, in 20/20/17.
Well, the comment is wow, but it's absolutely wow because here
is another demonstration of the power of people who are not
accountable to the wider public, but they can control politicians
and policy, including up to the point that we're going to have
wars with millions of people dying.
Now I've cheated slightly because I haven't gotten further
back in 2024. I want to go further back still
to 2015. But UK column warning and
warning about the way a Stasi state was being built in the UK.
And we were focusing back at this time on the Prevent duty
guidance, but we're also warning about GCHQ wanting to run
residential courses for teenagers.
And here in 2017, we're saying, would you let these men teach
your children? And I certainly wouldn't because
I wouldn't trust any of them, as I said at the time with my pet
hamster. Now, there were other people
warning what was happening. And this is from the same,
sorry, this is from 2015. It's Amnesty International
lessons from the Stasi, a cautionary tale on mass
surveillance. And what they were pointing out
is that while the Stasi in East Germany were very effective and
they held huge archives of data on East German citizens, today's
spies can gather far more information with a fraction of
the effort. And this is really a tentacles
that spread across the agenda that the other UK column
contributors have covered today. So I'm going to say the agenda
for me in 2024 was to see more of this Stasi state emerging in
UK and it's got tentacles everywhere.
We need to be identifying those tentacles and we need to be
cutting them off as as quickly as we can.
But ultimately we've got to look at the people who are doing the
damage and the people who are bringing in the policy.
So that was a good reason that we started, as we did, with
Mike's picture of probably one of the top leaders of the
political cult. Now, what can we do about this?
Well, let's lift the mood a bit because at the end of the day,
it's doing things. And I'm going to say huge amount
of respect from me for the ladies from Public Protection
Wales who have demonstrated such an unbelievable effort.
So not only say, no, we're not having the sexual grooming of
children in the education system and schools, but they're going
to create the whole organization to challenge it.
But what better way to start than to have a look at Kim
Isherwood speaking at the UK Column conference a couple of
months ago? OK.
So we haven't got a lot of time today.
I not really going to address much of the sex education with
you because you can find all yourselves later on what I want
to look at today, we're going to roughly look at the problem.
I want to introduce some of the people that's fighting this in
Wales and then I'm going to discuss a little bit about the
process that we've been through. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Graphic lessons on oral sex, how to choke your partner safely and
72 genders. This is what passes for
relationships and sex education in British schools across the
country. Children are being subjected to
lessons that are age inappropriate, extreme
sexualising and inaccurate, often using resources from
unregulated organisations that are actively campaigning to
undermine parents. This is not a victory for
equality, it is a catastrophe for childhood.
Will my right honourable friend honour his commitment to end
inappropriate sex education by commissioning an independent
inquiry into the nature and extent of this safeguarding
scandal? So all of that is true, OK,
Every single thing that is true. And you can find most of this on
our website. So I'm not going to go through
the actual sex education. If I did, I know I would have
tears in the room because it happens every single time is
sick. You can find everything on our
website, publicchildprotectionwales.org.
Much of our fight evidence where we've engaged with the
government, the court system and you'll find a lot about us than
the people of who we are. So Kim and those ladies have
done a brilliant job in setting up an organization now spreading
out from Wales across the country, where people are
saying, no, we're not having this perverse agenda.
But I want also want to say that recently I was able to start
interviewing some of the Finessi abuse survivors, the women that
suffered as little girls at this terrible school in the depths of
Scotland. And the first lady I spoke to
was Lynn Sheeran. So it's just a little picture of
her on screen. And I want to say this is the
start of an interview series with these ladies who are very
brave and they're not going to be silenced over the abuse they
experienced. Second lady, I've already spoken
to Sharon Cruden here and I'm going to say for the new year,
please join us as we discuss the reality of the government's
failure to address child abuse in Scotland.
And of course, through the news, we've also been seeing where
they're targeting, which is of course our children because
children represent the future. So this is the key bit.
Where does 2025 take us? What does it hold for us?
Well, I hope there's going to be a few more proper rainbows for
us. Not the perverted rainbow, real
rainbows. But I think in 2025 we are going
to be taken on a roller coaster. And the big important thing for
people who have woken up, who now have started to understand
what's really happening, is that we've got to be the ones who are
going to be standing alongside people who haven't woken up.
We've got to be teaching them, educating them.
We've got to be helping to make them brave enough to stand up
and speak out. And we've also got to be guiding
them through the fear which the governments and its agencies
clearly want to want to drown us in.
So it's going to be our job to sit alongside.
People are having big troubles with the overall public agenda.
We're the ones going to be comforting them.
We're the ones going to be saying no, let's stick together
and it's going to be OK. But I think in 2025, we're
really going to be tested because they are going to throw
everything at us. There's going to be the wars,
that's going to be fear. There's going to be the
diseases, that's going to be the breakdown around us, that's
going to be the roller coaster ride.
And if we're going to get through it, it's got to be the
informed people that keep the others on an even track and even
keel. So my message for 2025 is we've
got to feel that, feel the fear, but we've got to do it anyway
and we've got to enjoy the ride as much as we can.
Yes, couldn't agree more. OK, now it has been an extended
news and it makes me smile because it just means that all
of us have got so much that we want to say, so much information
that we want to get out. How can we end on a really
positive note? Well, this one is from you,
Diane, and I think it's absolutely on the button.
Thank you so much, Brian. And my message for 2025 to all
of our viewers is act local and fight global.
I personally think that this is the most, really the only way
that we can fight the globalist agenda.
We, we can't directly stop Klaus Schwab, We can't directly stop
Kier Starmer. We can't do these things at a,
at a larger scale. But what we can do is act
locally, which is something that I have been doing myself for a
while now. And I think we all need to be
looking at this. And what does this mean?
We've given examples throughout year, you know, we've talked
about, you know, use cash, of course, don't use the self
checks at the supermarkets. Get your food from local farmers
wherever possible. Get groups together if you don't
have any locally. Create your own group of people
that are like minded and figure out what you can do to fight the
the corrupt councils, the corrupt governments.
Get new people in place. Go out there and let people know
what's going on. Inform those who are not yet
informed. And this is all we can do
because if we start locally, then those networks will start
to join together and then those networks will grow bigger and
bigger and hopefully go throughout your region,
throughout the country eventually, and I would hope
throughout the world. But the only way that we can do
this is to, to start small. But if we all start doing
whatever small things we can do in whatever way that works for
us and we all start doing it, then that's going to be the
thing that I think is, is our, our way out of the, the
situation that they're trying to put us in.
So I just want to give everyone something to do for 2025 or
start today if you can, and let's all work together and, and
try to do everything that we can to stop all of these horrible
things that they do have planned for us.
So that's my message and happy Christmas and Happy New Year to
everyone. Brilliant, Diane, thank you for
that. And of course, the other thing,
before we get some discussion going in the team, the thing I
want to say is a huge thank you to all of the UK column
supporters and the members that fund us to allow us to do what
we're doing. There would be no UK column
without the members and the people donating into the column.
This is just, this is just the reality and the fact that we're
here today and we can produce the team that we've got on tip
on screen. There are many more people in
the wings, but we can only do this with the support of the
membership out there. And I want to say a particularly
big thank you to some of the don't, don't donate us and the
for the donations that have come in towards the end of this year
because it's, it's been really lovely not only to receive the
many Christmas cards and there's some lovely messages in those
Christmas cards. We've run out of table space.
So some of them are now sitting on side cabinets and some are on
the floor because it's the only space we've got to put them.
So that's absolutely brilliant. But the fact that people are
valuing what we're doing enough to make very generous donations
is something that's that's really lovely and it makes it
all worthwhile. So I'm looking at the team.
I'm just going to throw it out to you.
Well, just before you do. Let's just I'm not going to do
that some. Ground rules Let's just set some
ground rules. We've got to be all on our best
behaviour because there's sadly Alex has had to leave, but this
is the seven people on here, so we'll just be careful not to
speak over each other. Yes.
And also we know we're going to be clock watching a little bit
now because we need to bring probably today's extended news
to a close. But can I just look at you and
and say, have you got a few words to say about our
membership? Because I have to say I think
it's utterly brilliant the way people have stood by us over all
these years and we wouldn't be here without them.
Let's start with Charles, if we could.
Yes, I, I do, I mean, I think it's, it's been a, it's been the
most fascinating part of the voyage with UK columns so far.
The, the, the research and the output and the media side of it
is one thing, but it's quite another to have that sort of
relationship with the people that you are communicating it
to. But both in, in this sense that
we're doing now the broadcasting, but also the
feedback from letters, emails, that sort of thing.
And having got out to live events this year and actually
seeing people in person and to know that those people, you do
understand exactly what it is you're doing in supporting UK
column. Because it's not about the
access to extra or it's not about a specific piece of
content. It's about enabling UK column to
not just continue to do what they do, but to continue to
expand that membership and to spread that message further
afield. So I think it's it's an
extraordinary and it is a unique quality of UK column, but it is
a unique quality of the member of UK column that they that they
absolutely get what it is that we're doing and why and it's
terrific. Long may it continue.
Debbie, any thoughts? Well, it's just extremely
humbling. I mean, I've been so fortunate
in not just communicating with our members and our audience,
but actually interviewing many of them because our audience,
they're not stupid. They're really not.
They're well ahead of the curve. And we've got so many experts in
our own audience, doctors, lawyers, accountants, everybody
you can name pretty much in our audience.
And it's just been a complete privilege and a pleasure to have
interviewed them and to have heard their exclusive stories
because I think people forget UK column.
You know, you guys, Mike and Brian, you've been around for a
long time doing this decade Common Purpose UK column have
stood the test of time because there's nothing to hide.
So we haven't got this huge global corporate sponsorship
deals that, you know, these massive monstrous companies have
got. We literally just rely and
survive on our members. And I think that's what's so
holistic and what has allowed the column to stand the test of
time. And long may it continue.
But I'm just incredibly humbled by our members.
And many of them, you know, have become part of the family now.
Cheryl Granger, Doctor Robert Everett, Jane Dean, You know,
these people are doing extraordinary work out in the
community and they're not just supporting us, but we like to
feel that we're supporting them because it's a two way St.
People say to us, oh, UK column keeps us sane.
Trust me, you guys out there watching right now, you keep us
sane. So it's very much a two way St.
Brilliant, brilliant, Debbie and I think that's so true.
Now do do I go for age or beauty next?
It's a difficult one. I think I'd better go for age.
That'd be that'd be bad, man. I think probably not.
Right, Mark, go ahead. I'm up, yes.
Well-being sort of the odd man out on the other side of the
pond here. One of the things I did recently
was I reached out to the Northside Chicago GOP about the
borders are Tom Holman speaking to them and they were pretty
intrigued about UK column and I've encountered that before.
I would call it a person or an organization directly.
And oh, you you mean you're not CBS or some affiliate, you're
not ANBC affiliate, you're not TBS you're who and and those
that have seen it are are pretty impressed and that included Matt
Truella. You might recall the the
minister that talked about the doctrine of the lesser
magistrates. He ended up putting auk column
clip on one of his websites and I've seen that happen before.
So as we do the news, we can find new members, new allies,
new people that will help us propagate our message, which in
turn raises the the bar of optimism much higher because as
we get more viewers, as we get more donors, the issues that I
and so many others have covered. So that to the best of our
ability, like when I interviewed Darlin Favrito, he really gets
into the mechanism of how elections are actually stolen.
It completely demystifies the whole question.
And he shows that yes, elections can be stolen at a very.
A very sneaky level, a very clever in, in a very clever
manner. And, and other people that we
run across. And as we interview those
people, they learn about us, we learned about them and the
network grows. And at the same time, despite
their Online Protection act and all these things they're doing,
for instance, in the UK, which is obviously a direct and
indirect way to protect the media monopoly and to provide
tools to go after their competitors.
As they do those things, those things will become more and more
futile because what we're, what we're doing will be so much more
viral and so and so genuine and so fresh and will actually solve
problems. So I think I'll leave it at that
on a very high note. Thank you, Mark and Ben.
The membership, yes, there's really nothing else like it
actually. And it's been fantastic to
participate in and to connect with some of you over the past
year and a bit. And there's this quote that I
love from Gustav Mala, which is tradition is not the worship of
ashes, but the preservation of fire.
And I feel like the UK column membership is the fire that
we're all working to preserve actually.
And I've had some incredibly thoughtful and kind messages
from people over the past few months in particular.
But all year actually, when I think about it, relating to some
of the stuff that I've been talking about, some of the stuff
that I've revealed about myself personally on the show, people
who got in touch, you know, things relating to my family
background and what have you. I won't go into right now, but
some of the some of the average has just been really wonderful.
Actually. I've massively, massively
appreciated it. And also importantly, I've
learnt a lot because people have sent me books that I've read
that have completely expanded my horizons, right?
And I've actually got a couple that are sitting by the side of
my bed that I need to get into over the next couple of weeks
now that I'm going to have a little bit more free time that
I'm really, really looking forward to getting into.
So if I come back a little bit wiser in the new year, then
you'll know why that is. It's down to the UK column
membership. And I will just say very quickly
that the the one of the best things of this year, one of the
real highlights was the event that we had in Bristol.
And I'll just echo my friend Steve's comment, which I think I
mentioned on extra the week after the event, which was that
it was just amazing to be somewhere where you could be
yourself and you could speak your mind and you knew that you
were surrounded by like minded people.
And you know, more power to all of you.
Thank you very much. Yeah, great.
Well, we think we're probably at the end of today's special
extended news. So Mike and I would like to say
a huge thank you to you guys for doing what you do and joining us
today. We are a team.
We've also got people that have viewers can't see.
So Kenny and Stephanie and and Claire who work in the
background and and and are doing great things for us.
So that's wonderful. But the yeah, where do we leave
it? We leave it.
Just before you finish, I just also want to add one more name
to that and that is Sam, and of course otherwise known as
Dictator. And hopefully we'll be seeing
much more of Dictator after Christmas as well.
The right sort of dictator. Absolutely yes, yes, apologies
Sam there, but this is this It's true.
The UK column dictator is going to be more observable.
So I I just wanted to end on the note of a huge thanks to
everybody supporting the UK column.
Have a good Christmas. Do take time off to relax and
socialise with family and friends, because this is all the
key part of being human. And just remember the golden
rule that the happier you are that we are, the the more
unhappy people like Peter Mandelson will be because of
course, their agenda is based on fear.
It's depressing people and pushing them down.
So the more upbeat and cheerful we are as we fight back, the
more more successful we're going to be.
So give you give yourself the opportunity to relax over
Christmas and do everything you can and last you're just about
to finish, last bit to finish. So thank you to Stephanie for
press bringing the bringing the note in.
Yes, let's let's just tell you what's happening at 1:00 PM
every day during the Christmas break.
Indeed, we're going to put out the conference videos so they
will be streamed in chronological orders as they
appeared in the conference itself.
And we thought this would be the opportunity to stay engaged with
our audience over the Christmas period.
You get the opportunity of seeing those incredible talks
again if you were able to attend.
If you weren't able to attend, you can of course see them for
the first time. So we've done our best to make
sure that there is UK column content going out.
At 1:00 PM every day. At 1:00 PM every day.
Every weekday, anyway. And finally, finally, finally,
just thank you for the break. This is the longest break I
think the UK column team has had in a very, very long time.
So we're we're also looking forward to this.
But we have made a promise that if there's anything incredible
that happens, we might have to get the file lit again and get
into the studio and report on it.
So, Debbie, I know you'll hackles a rippling with
something's going to happen over the Christmas period.
Let's see what happens or what doesn't.
But if necessary, I'm sure we can do something.
We'll see. Have a great Christmas.
Have a good Christmas and bye bye from all of us.
Yes, bye, bye.
