This post may not be directly related to this pandemic, but I’m pretty sure it will be to the next one.

"UK expenditure on defence as a percentage of national GDP in 2021. The UK has met NATO 's 2% target every year since its introduction in 2006". "The UK defence secretary, Ben Wallace, has said military spending will double from its current level to hit £100bn in 2030."

Worse than you thunk.

On the other hand, UK's Beloved Leaders don't just rely on the Military to boost their obsessions.

Wikipedia states "Susan Fiona Dorinthea Michie FBPsS FAcSS FMedSci FBA (born 19 June 1955) is a British academic, clinical psychologist, and professor of health psychology, director of The Centre for Behaviour Change and head of The Health Psychology Research Group, all at University College London. She is also an advisor to the British Government via the SAGE advisory group on matters concerning behavioural compliance with government regulations during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, she was appointed Chair of the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) Technical Advisory Group on Behavioural Insights and Sciences for Health.

She is also a long term (40 years+ ?) Member and Executive Committee Member of the Communist Party of Britain (formerly Communist Party of Great Britain).

So that's all absolutely fine, then.

Surely not to be applied against their own? They are so unnecessary. Just make "recommendations".

Yes, the 'Comrades' don't call her "Stalin's Nannie" for nothing.

I'm sure she will be a great asset to the WHO and will, no doubt, get on famously with her chum from SAGE, Jeremy Farrar.

Sir Jeremy James Farrar OBE FRCP FRS FMedSci is a British medical researcher who has served as director of the Wellcome Trust since 2013 and will serve as chief scientist at the World Health Organization in 2023. He is also, of course, the guy who arranged a round-robin of "Scientists" to deny that there was any possibility of a lab-leak from (either of) the WuFlu Institutions of Virology.

Said WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus: “I am delighted that Jeremy [...] will join WHO at a critical time in global public health when investment in both the health workforce and science is imperative to strengthening health systems and outbreak preparedness and prevention. As Chief Scientist, Jeremy will accelerate our efforts to ensure WHO, its Member States and our partners benefit from cutting-edge, life-saving science and innovations."

Can Neil "Professor Pantsdown" Ferguson be far behind? He'd make the WHO a great Chief Statistician and X-Box coder!

And although the Media has kept a bit schtum about it, don't forget that the WHO has developed their "One Health" Treaty initiative which, amongst other things, will make any WHO declaration on anything to do with "health" (like Ruinable Energy saving the planet, no doubt) part of National Law. Interesting that https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/614335 shows that a petition asking for a referendum on the implications of this, signed by 156,084 UK citizens, has been brushed aside and the treaty need only be "laid before parliament" (i.e available to be read in the Member's Library) before being accepted, quite probably without any debate.

What's not to like?

And there are those who insist that there is no WEF / Gates / CCP / Big Pharma conspiracy, just a bit of unfortunate bumbledom and ineptocracy!
