UK Column News Podcast 28th April 2025

Good afternoon. Today is Monday, the 28th of April 2025, just after 1:00. Welcome to UK column News. I'm your host, Brian Garish and delighted to have Ben Rubin with me in the studio. And we're being joined by Diane Rasmussen, Mcaddy by Livelink from Scotland. Plus, today we have a guest. So stay with us, Ben.

We're going to get straight in on the importance of facts and truth and genuine media. And it seems, to me at least, that the government is doing everything it can to take utter and total control of Free Press and media. Absolutely, Brian. Yes, we're in a war, a media war. We have been for some time. It's a war for meaning, a war for truth, a war for our minds, ultimately, and most importantly, a war for the minds

of the nation's children. Let's hear from Chris Morris, CEO of Full Fact, speaking to the Lord's Committee on Communications and Digital in Westminster last week. Recently a report came out from the Commission into countering online conspiracy theories in schools, which was set up by the pairs Commission and I was part of that Commission. Two of the recommendation from I think are worth highlighting 1 is that teaching on conspiracy theories should start in primary

school. There's no, there's no point in waiting until the age of 13 when 77% of 11 and 12 year olds have already got social media accounts. And, and it's, it's, it's not too soon to start at the age of

five. And Hannah's already mentioned Finland. And we're probably not the first people to come before this committee and suggest that Finland might be quite a good example to follow because they seem to get a lot of things right and they teach children from a very early age how to recognise potentially harmful

information. The second thing is though, is that it's really important to empower teachers because one of the findings of the Commission was that many teachers did not feel they had permission to discuss sometimes sensitive

issues of conspiracy theories. If a pupil came into school, for example, and said, well, my dad or my mum said this is does the teacher have permission from the school, from the local authority, from, from the Department for Education, to, to, to, to, to do they have the permission to take on what that

parent has said? It's a very difficult position for the teacher to be put in, but I think it's really important that to, if we're going to set up a successful system for teachers to feel they are empowered to make those decisions separately. I think it's also really important to say that all of these things need to happen outside school as well, and they need to happen at all ages.

I mean, the government is, I think, right, this government and the previous government rightly focusing primarily on young people on, on children of school age. But for example, when we carried out focus groups last summer on misinformation and what it means to people, the the overwhelming answer that almost everyone gave was, oh, Uncle Stan or Auntie Betty got scammed by somebody online. That's what misinformation means to people.

And when they then then went on and say, well, how do you think we can counter that is they need to be taught how to understand, to operate in the world, which is moving so fast, and where they feel left behind. So while schools and young people are incredibly important, we shouldn't forget the rest of society as well. Ben, truly astonishing clip. I'm really glad that you brought this in to the start of the news today because what are we dealing with?

Well, we thought they were soap manufacturers but are now apparently they are to help reframe the children. So what is he talking about? Indoctrination, reframing the teachers, breaking the bond between parents and the children so the state can get its opinion in. This is one of the most dangerous speeches that I've I've actually heard for some time, Ben.

It's mind blowing, isn't it? Mums and dads, uncles and aunties are the problem and empowered teachers is the solution and they're going to be able to make decisions about the re education of of your kids essentially and course correcting them when they make misstatements or have misconceptions about the the way that the world is. I mean, it's it's absolutely astonishing to be honest with you and also right the way down to to five year olds.

He's talking about reeducating or indoctrinating early years school children, right? They have absolutely no right to be doing this. I mean, it's absolutely astonishing. Even if he's referencing it happening in other countries, he talks about Finland. Doesn't matter if they're doing it in Finland, they shouldn't be doing it in Finland if that's what they are indeed doing in Finland. And, and who is he? So that's Chris Morris. So we talked about Full Fact a

lot over the years. I looked at the UK column website earlier and the first interaction that UK column had with Full Fact was in 2012, which is basically when they were set up. So we were straight out the gate, Brian sent a very strongly worded letter to them because they had frankly misinformed the public about a story that we put

out right even back then. And essentially these organisations have been established in order to deal with problems like the UK column and we are a problem to the establishment narrative, the establishment agenda. We brought a Diane did some excellent reporting on them last year. I recommend going to have a look

at that. Essentially what we're dealing with here is the vested interests and the financial backing of the BBC, the World Economic Forum, the UN Sustainable Development Goals, Google, Meta, are big tech companies, a bunch of supposedly charitable foundations like the Esme Fairbairn Foundation and others who are seeking to control the minds of the nation's children. Right. And they are not just informing policy. Yeah. So that's Chris Morris talking to the House of Lords in

Westminster last week. Obviously by information, they've asked him to come in and share his opinion. And he was very proudly the first fact checker, the BBC and he was doing that role through COVID, so precursor to Marianna Spring and BBC Verify. He was the man who set that whole programme up. But he actually references this report, which comes from the Pears Foundation.

That's the the Pears family, the soap manufacturer of Pears soap, very famously and very wealthy family who now have a foundation dealing with these issues. They issued this report last year about countering online conspiracies in schools. We really don't want kids going on the Internet and finding out information that is inconvenient to us. But they're not just advising on policy. We can actually see here this report was commissioned by these

these two individuals. So Trevor Pairs, who's the scion of the pair's family, but also Sir Mufti Hamid Patel at the bottom, who subsequent to this report being issued has actually been installed as the interim chair of Ofsted. So he's actually now running the education system. And we're now going to hear a little bit about what is actually going on in the education system at the moment, what's happening with British children. Ben, thank you very much. Well, Diane, let's let's bring

you into the news and let's have a look at what sort of society the government has helped create. Is it taking us into a better place? I would say no, but what have you got for us? Well, thanks Brian and hello Ben, and it's good to be here today. I wanted to first of all cover today the first we know about the Supreme Court ruling recently about saying that a woman is actually a biological

woman. There have been protests taking place all around the country since the ruling took place, especially in the last couple of weekends. For example, here's an article from a local paper from up here in the north, from from Yorkshire. There was a protest in New York over the weekend that happened on Saturday. This particular piece of propaganda called it peaceful. I heard from someone who was directly there on the ground in New York on Saturday, found it

very frightening. It was very large and the people were very angry. So what I'd like to do is I found some photos of some of the the signs and the things that people hold at these protests. They show these large crowds. But here's one from Edinburgh that was in this place called the, it's a website called The Canary that was from the 19th saying it was to rail against a ruling that was disgraceful and

far right fueled. So that's the bias presented by the Canary. But what's actually going on when you get into the the crowds and and into what's actually going on? Let's take a look for example, at this video. This is a video from Edge of the Matrix who was with us in Cheltenham and interviewed me about the LGBTQ books that are going on in libraries around the world. And this was him having a very heated debate with someone at the Manchester protest recently.

That you're biologically male. You. Prove it. Now what? Do you want me to get my pants down right? Prove it even if you had a. Penis it would prove that you were biologically. Male, come in. How? How do you know that you have X? Is it XY chromosome? XX chromosomes. Offensive. OK, well you can cause you are absolutely wrong. OK, you. You do not know what you're talking. About OK. You do not live. The life of a transgender male or female. No, I don't you. Do not.

So it's got nothing to do with you, absolutely nothing to do with you, whatever anyone but this person wants to do. That person. Wants to do. It's got nothing to do with you. We you say you want to live in a socially acceptable or free society. This is a socially acceptable free society where you whatever your beliefs. Keep them to yourself.

They don't impinge on what everybody else has to has to say about it or what or what to believe you that that sign is so offensive to, in my opinion, most people in this country. And of course the punch line, which we didn't get to see in the video, but you can watch the full video on YouTube. What happened was that he found out at the end was that the, the man who was standing to the side of the man he was speaking with. So the, the younger man was saying that that was a trans

man. I think that was right, but was actually, I was saying a trans woman, but actually a real man. Anyways, lied all the way through the debate when it turned out he was just actually a man. So that was interesting. So some, some of the photos that I that I mentioned that I wanted to show everyone here. Here's one that said the only good turf, which is trans exclusionary radical feminist is a hug one with the drawing of a noose. So that's lovely.

We have another one here says rot in hell Rowling. So JK Rowling, of course, the author of the Harry Potter books who is very outspoken and her turfness and another saying transphobes should have a DIY lobotomy. Here's another one saying fix your hearts or die. And another signs next to them. That's saying unions defend trans rights dump leaders who elected Stormer and Streeting.

They must not know that Starmer said in 2023 of course that 99.9% of women haven't gotten penis or that David Lammy said that trans women can grow cervix. Here's one saying you can pee next to me. This one was posted by Steph Richards. Steph Richards has a bit of a history. Steph is a biological man who has fathered children.

This was at Southampton. Steph used to be the CEO of a charity called Endometriosis South Coast, which of course endometriosis is a woman's health condition only that only applies to women. And Steph was, had stepped down within about six months of being appointed CEO because Steph was, was seen as a, according to some people, some transphobic people didn't like the fact that a biological man was in charge of a Women's Health charity. So imagine that and also more on

peeing. I, I would say trans demos, these activist demos, one of the things that happens is they are actually urinating in the streets in order to make a point about not being able to go to pee in women's toilets. A couple of other news items that's well related to these this agenda. Again, more about peeing. Unfortunately, Earliston Primary School in the Scottish Borders has been ordered by a judge to add single sex toilets to its

new primary school building. Some of the parents were concerned that the newly built schools only had gender neutral news put in them, so they took them to court. And I just want to say this is one example of what we can all be doing to take action against what they're trying to do to the

children in our country. Back over in the US, there's a group of Muslim, Catholic and Ukrainian Orthodox parents in Montgomery County, Maryland. They've taken their school board to the US Supreme Court for the right to opt out their primary school age children from school curriculum containing books about transgender and transgender and homosexual

agendas. The summary of the case, according to ACBS news article, and you can read the full filing as well, is that public schools are unconstitutionally burdening parents First Amendment rights to exercise their religion freely when they require children to participate in instruction on gender and sexuality that violates the family's religious beliefs. There will be a decision made this summer, but it looks like so far the justices are siding with the parents. So that's some good news.

One of the books that's under question in the case that has been brought to the Supreme Court is is the book called Born Ready, the True Story of a boy named Penelope by Jody Patterson. And here I would like to bring in our guest today. She's she's Kathy Mudge. She is the head of Protect and Teach down in Devon. And Kathy, I've interviewed previously in UK column exposing what's going on in the schools and the curriculum of the books.

And I'd like to have Kathy read an excerpt from this book. So welcome to the show, Kathy. Thank you. Thanks for inviting me. Right. You sitting comfortably, Pleppy. Why is he? Why are you so angry? Mama asks. Because everyone thinks I'm a girl. However, you feels fine, baby. It's what's on the inside that matters most. If you feel like a boy, that's OK. No, Mama, I don't feel like a boy. I am a boy. Oh. Mama gets quiet. I love you Mama, but I don't want to be you.

I want to be Papa. I don't want tomorrow to come, because tomorrow I'll look like you. Please help me, Mama. I want to be a boy. I hold Mama's hand and transfer some of my ninja powers to help her understand. Then Mama says the best word I've ever heard. Yes, she says, we will make a plan to tell everyone we love what we know. What's that? You are a boy. For the first time, my insides don't feel like fire. They feel like warm golden love. So thanks.

Kathy, thank you. What do you what did you think of that when you first read that? Well, we obviously we're looking at lots of books and we haven't covered them all because there's so many we're working our way through. So this is the first time I've seen this one. And the moment I read it, I thought this is aimed at the mother more than the child itself. It actually, it's actually grooming the mother since they got me was where it said I don't

want tomorrow to come. Now that if you ask anybody, what do you mean you don't want tomorrow to come? You're thinking of suicide, aren't you, and a suicidal ideation. So you the whole of this premise is based on the fact if you don't help your child change sex, they will kill themselves. This is what this is.

This is what they've been saying all the time when there is no proof of that child suicide is extremely rare and it actually shows the suicide rates are higher amongst children than have trans after they've gone through the process than before. But it means that mother will read that to their child and they'll think, Oh my gosh, you know, the my child's, you know, my little tomboy girl is going to kill herself unless I transom and make them a boy. It's just, and it's the refu and

it's the rejection. They've got a daughter. And instead of having a daughter who wants to dress like a boy and do boy things, they're just saying, no, you're not bought, you're not a girl anymore. That's rejected. We're going to have a boy that you know, yes, we're happy. We're going to have a boy. Now they're just rejecting the child's sex. It's just shocking, isn't it, it? Certainly is it It certainly is, yeah. It it is one of many.

And, and that's, you know, one of the things that I, I would encourage viewers who have not watched our interview previously where we called out a lot of the content that was in certain books and that it just scratches the surface of the amount of these books that are pretty much from what I see. I, I occasionally go into Waterstones or WH Smith locally and look around in the children's section and the young

adult section. And it all has some elements of rainbows of it's OK if you don't even want to be a person. You can be a deer or a wolf if you want to, you can be whatever you want to be. And it starts as we see very young with these picture books and it just gets more and more advanced and complex and in depth as we go further into the,

the, the age of the child. So by the time that you're in the young adult section, you're seeing a queer romances, sexual relationships, things that and you don't even you didn't see that I would say when I was a child, even, you know, a romance that for a teenager didn't have any sort of really explicit sexual content. It might have had, Oh, I like this boy. He's should I ask him out?

Are we going to have a date? But there was, it wasn't anything that's explicit until you got into adult fiction. And, and I think something that's really important for us to highlight, as you will know as well, is that the age range doesn't actually indicate appropriateness of content. If that's correct, right? It's only about the reading level is. Is that how you understand it as

well? Yeah, that's a big issue, what they're looking at the words and a lot of these authors have dumbed down their wording so that they'll make it acceptable for a nine year old. We had an 11 year old girl who came home from school the home with a book about anal sex in graphic detail that was beyond my comprehension and I'm an ex nurse and you know the wording and everything but it was all done in very childish language like poop was was mentioned a

lot. So they basically that's that book has a rating for a nine year old's plus because of the vocabulary and it's rated by the publisher. People that are writing these books get them printed. If you wrote a child's book now without including LGBTQ stuff, so like having a gay child or a trans child or a child questioning their gender, you just wouldn't get it published. We know that from authors that have contacted us having trouble

getting things printed. The publishers themselves get kudos for sending the school LGBTQ material. We often find it's packaged up, so they'll be sending a school like history books, geography books, and they'll include a whole load of LGBTQ books as well. It's a massive number that you're dealing with in a school. You'll maybe have 13 different titles on a topic that I think probably could be covered by one or two books.

They'll do shelves of these books on particular days like Pride Month and Transgender Gender Day of Remembrance that have a display out, you know, rainbows everywhere, which attracts the children in the books are attractive as well. Today, for example, I've had a few things in my inbox. One was a book, a new book that's just out for toddlers and it's all the letters of the alphabet. And a is for activist and it's a picture of a baby with its fist

in a clenched fist position. That's a book for today. And T, of course, is for trans and trains. So that's that's a new book that we've had as well. And you're talking a lot of this stuff also comes from groups. So we found LGBTQ groups and schools pushing this agenda, which brings us back some of the two groups you named earlier, which was the Esme Fairbank Foundation funding a lot of business schools and the Pairs Foundation. They're on our list of groups that pay for this to happen.

Thanks, Kathy. We'll come back to you a bit later in the news. And I'm just watching. Brian's face is just falling as he's listening to what we've just covered. Thank you both very much for that. Well, my face was also following comments in the UK column chat box, which is running live as this news is going out. And people were shocked, absolutely shocked at the at the report.

And they're deeply concerned about these driven changes in society, which are clearly heavily focused on young people, children, because obviously if children can be changed, then the state gains total control of the future. We must stay on this subject in future news programmes. But yes, extremely concerning to the average person.

Now I'm going to move on still to the subject of children, but so this is issues around a live court case. So we have to be very measured in what we report today, but something came up at the end of last week that I thought was very significant and really deserved to be flagged up to the UK column audience. So let's have a look at this report from the Evening Standard. Constance Martin tells Old Bailey trial she went on the run after, quote, my children were stolen by the state.

And I'll just add a little bit more of the text here. So the couple were convicted at the first trial of concealing the birth of a child and perverting the course of justice. They're now on trial where they deny charges of manslaughter and causing or allowing the death of a child. Now, this was a newborn baby. The whole case is very tragic, but there were some things that took place in the court that we need to have a look at. Let's have a look at the video that went with the Evening

Standard report. And I'm going to say to the audience, do go and look at that article because it was extremely well written and very informative. But here's what one of their editorial team had to say. This is the case of Constance Martin and Mark Gordon, the aristocrat and her lover who went on the run from police and are now accused of killing their baby.

My name is Tristan Kirk, I'm the courts correspondent for the London Standard. Constance Martin and Mark Gordon went missing in December 2022 with their newborn baby Victoria in tow, sparking a massive manhunt as they attempted to evade the authorities and police. Baby Victoria was tragically found dead around two months later, her body discarded in a little bag for life, left in a

shed covered in rubbish. Gordon and Martin are now on trial accused of manslaughter and a causing or allowing the death of their baby girl. They deny the charges, saying that they cared for her, gave her warmth, comfort food and love and that they are not responsible for her death. That's something that an Old Bailey jury has now been charged with deciding. Are they guilty or not guilty?

Martin and Gordon, who've been a couple for a number of years, checked into a holiday cottage in Northumberland on December the 20th, 2022. At that stage they were on nobody's radar, a couple who were largely estranged from their own family and had apparently checked in for a Christmas break. But when they left, the property was in a mess and there were signs that it was possible a

baby had been born. During the course of the police investigation, detectives have pieced together sightings of Martin and Gordon on their travels over the course of late December and early January as they're trying to explain what they did and why. Obviously that video is out in the public domain, so we can show it to to our audience quite happily. Note the hypnotic music, however, and I don't know why they felt that was necessary on

such a serious report. But let's just go a little bit into what happened in court and I'm using their own statements from the article. Let's have a look. So this is constant Martin and she said my family, she was talking about the family, my family never accepted my relationship with Gordon, her male partner. They were the ones who instigated my children being taken away. She went on to say that she loved her children extremely and not being with them is very,

very hard. And she followed on to say I think it's an absolute outrage. They are never caught, they are never caused harm. They've always been loved and well catered for. So the decision was an outrage. What is she talking about? She's talking about previous children, four of them being taken away from her by the state. But this is where the report of the standard is extremely interesting because Constant Martin went on to say this when my children were stolen by the

state. And as she did this, the judge responded. So this is Judge Lou Craft KC, who's actually Recorder of London. And he said to Constance words to to give the indication. I need to caution you against answering in the way that you have just done as there are quote consequences that may follow if you do so. Constance talks about her children being stolen by the state and this is followed up by a caution from the judge with these particular words.

Now it is sensitive because the case is running so we can't, we can't say too much about it. But Constance went on to say of a partner, I love him very much. I wouldn't have five children with him, live with him, be with him if I didn't. He is very dear to me. And she also went on to say that she they went off grid after Victoria, the latest baby was born, to, quote, stop her being taken into care in the same way that the other four children were taken away.

Now, what's very interesting is that if you look at BBC report on this, the BBC gives constant words but fails to mention that extraordinary caution by the judge in response to talking about child stealing by the state. And I'm going to end this section with four key questions that I think arise from the court exchange, and that is that in mentioning child stealing by the state, what was Constance

Martin really trying to say? Well, we're not going to know because she wasn't able to say it. What did the judge really mean by his caution and quote consequences? And three, would the man on the Clapham omnibus deduce that Constance was deflected from giving her defence testimony in her own words? And lastly, are the accused in general now to be restricted from giving testimony on the subject of child stealing by the

state? And I'll point out to our audience and wider audience that the UK column has repeatedly warned about child stealing taking place by the UK state. And it's something that's ongoing so difficult to say more at the moment until the the trial is over. But that exchange and the judges words were reported in the mainstream press and I think there are some serious questions to be asked about what was actually taking place there.

I don't fully understand it. And certainly UK column will see if we can get more information out of the Recorder of London's organization about that court hearing in due course.

Well, let's move on to UK column adverts and first of all, as always, we'd like to say if our audience likes what the UK column is doing, then please support us, make a donation or join in via a monthly or annual or lifetime membership. This is this gives us the financial base to allow us to do what we're doing. You can always purchase something from the UK column shop and we always like to point out that we do have Clyde de Carle healthcare products if

you'd like to buy those. We get a small percentage from the sales. Most importantly, we're doing what we're doing in order to share information and to circulate information on the facts, not only in UK but worldwide. So please help us out with that because it's clear that we're shadow banned on many channels. Now, we've got a number of very good events coming up tonight at 7:00, the World Council for Health is putting out this pandemic treaty without public consent panel.

So if you go to their website, worldcouncilforhealth.org, you can see the details as to how you get into that. But I'm sure it's going to be exceptionally informative. And of course, people continuing to press to get information and facts out about what took place around COVID. Now tomorrow at 1:00 PM, we've got an interview with Sam Sorbo.

This is with Charles Sam and Charles Mallett about the critical distinction between schooling and educating and the choice facing parents confronted by the ills of the system to go

to have a look at that tomorrow. I'm also going to give you the heads up that we've got an audio interview coming out because we're getting very interesting information from Christians in Cornwall who were talking about the destruction of the Church of England. And I have to say we've now reached the position where Christians are so frightened about their own church that this will be an anonymous interview with the identity of the person completely changed because of

what they say is increasing venom and unpleasantness inside the Church of England to anybody who dares speak out against the change policies. Now, Saturday the 3rd of May, we've also got a very interesting talk presentation by William Katie which is natural law remedy or ruin. It's our choice Saturday the 3rd of May Staufford Community Centre, Sidmouth, so you can have a look at that.

We've also got May Bank Holiday 23rd to the 26th that Stand in the Light which is up in Cumbria, a really great event. We have also got the Thetford Truth and Freedom Beer Festival that's a mixture of socialising and talks. Friday the 18th to Saturday the 19th of July 2025, The Angel Inn, Swallow Lane Lowerling NR 16 Two Qu And we've also got some articles here and I think Diane will bring you in to just take us through the articles that UK Column is putting up on

the website. We encourage many, many more people to get in and read these articles. I think a lot of people watch video but they don't realise the amount of really excellent written material that UK Column is putting out. Diane.

Yeah, Thanks, Brian. It's, it's really important to be looking at all of this excellent written content that we're getting in. And, and I guess I'm biased as the commissioning editor for written contents, but I have to say that a lot of these articles that I'm going to show you here are are from members that have just been doing their own research and doing wonderful things. So if any members out there would be interested in writing an article, we do operate on a fee scale.

So please get in touch with me if you would like to write something for us. So these are just the articles that have been published in the last couple of weeks since Easter. This first one is Welfare cuts for warfare, How the UK government is punishing its most vulnerable to funnel billions to Ukraine by Radhika. The next one we have is U.S. government Fights Transgender movement, This is by Cornelius H Vandenhoven.

This was originally published in Dutch and Alex Thompson worked with me to get this translated into English. The next one is Law Fair in a Higher Gear by Andrea Paso. I hope I'm saying her surname correctly. I actually met her in Cheltenham and it and a discussion that our events led to her getting published with us.

So that that was excellent. The next one is someone we all know and love, Mark Anderson. Beyond facts, dangers, other big pharma products mired in lawsuits for fraud, cancer and other major health impacts. It's a lot of very important information, medically speaking, in this article.

The next one we have is The Crisis of Culture by my friends, Doctor Stuart Wheaton, who's the chair of the Scottish Union for Education. George Orwell's 1984 is definitely in place for this particular article, so be warned in advance. The next one is the International Commission of Jurists and the Rape of the Children. This is by Mark Tarrant, who is a lawyer in Australia and got in touch with Brian Has. It's a short article, but some very important information and

that one as well. We also have the secret society dedicated to New World Order, The Fabians by Professor Gloria Moss. Now this is a very, very important article and I've this was just published yesterday and I've already getting these these excellent comments on Twitter and in our member forums as well. So at World's End replied to this and said surely the greatest article I've read all year. I expect more to come on this from the fabulous, much shared,

much loved UK column. You are real Bulldogs among us. I am so personally grateful if you exist. Thank you. And to Diane Ben Rubin 21 wire. That's Patrick Kennington, Alex and others and also Doctor Waseem. I'm not sure who that is but said so that he was beyond stunned by your expose of the Fabians at the of the Labour Party and current government.

I would recommend everyone to read this article before the the elections that are coming up soon because once you read this you will definitely not not want to be voting Labour. And the last one I want to highlight is the first part of a three-part series by Doctor Yobs Lundgreva. We will have a three-part series on for the banking system. This one is about how central banks work and how and when they

fail. This is the first paywalled article that we have on the website because this you have to be logged in as a member to be able to access it. And, and so I encourage members to to take a look at that one. It's got a lot of very detailed but important information. And I'd like to go back to Kathy now. Kathy is hosting a conference this weekend and it's the Protect and Teach conference and I'll let Kathy say whatever she wants to tell us about it. Right.

Thank you, Diane. Yes, we're holding our third conference now. It's a small working group. We're basically get together and we work on the issues and find solutions and feedback then. So we've got you, Diane. You're coming to talk about library books and the situation with schools and public libraries and how these books on gender ideology are getting in there. We've got Professor Gloria Moss who's going to come and talk about biological sex and the transhumanist agenda.

So that will be very interesting. Emma Thompson is coming. She's the daughter her father transed about probably 20-30 years ago and living as a child and being brought up by a man who says that they're now their mother. We're talking about judicial review. We're also talking about working on the streets, how we go out and talk to people about this issue, how we're working in schools. We've got we're talking about binary biology as well.

We've got a speaker on that trying to look at the school curriculum and what teachers are actually teaching now. So it's Bristol based. Our website and our e-mail will be listed so you can get in touch with us directly if you'd like to come. It's free donation on the door. Thank you and. How many space States and how many spaces are left in the for the conference?

Can people still sign up? Yeah, yeah, we've got spaces, so absolutely you can sign up. The nearest train station is Bristol Parkway and we're just off the motorway junction near Bristol, so we're not actually in Bristol City centre. So if you'd like to pop down on that day from 3:50. And if I can tempt people further to come to the conference, I have some of these new I love CO2 badges with ukproblem.org on them. They are currently not available in the shop. They will be shortly.

But if you would like one of these badges, please come meet me at the conference and I might just give you a free badge saying I love CO2. Excellent, Diane and Kathy, thank you very much for that, that really interesting segment. And Kathy, really great to see all the the activism that is clearly increasing across the country.

And I think this is one of the key reasons why we're now seeing, I think it's panic starting at the higher levels of control, but we still need to understand what who these people are, what their policies are. And Ben, I think you can take us

into more of how this cabal is doing their pretty evil business. Absolutely, yes. Well, their policy is total control of everything. That's really what they're aiming for, and that is slavery ultimately, you know, and if you don't feel like a slave right now, then you will do soon enough. We've shown this chart a few times before, shows the concentration of wealth into the hands of the 1%.

It's doubled from 1962 to 2014. Based on these statistics and that trajectory, it's probably up at about 85% now. And we know that that by 20-30 they want to get it to 100% of ownership. By the 1%, we will own nothing and be happy. That is essentially a slave system and it's enabled by an overseer class. Talk about the overseas today, one who overseas or superintends workmen, especially slaves, one who has charge under the owner or manager of the work on a plantation.

So for today's purposes, Europe is the plantation. We are the slaves, the owners of the global investment funds in the billionaire class, and this man is an overseer. This is Tunde Olan, reward you, who is a British man of Nigerian extraction. He's a trustee, Oxfam, one of these improbable career trajectories that we talk about, Brian, he's a member of the Imperial College Council, so slap banging Bill Gates territory.

He's on the board of Innovate UK, which is one of the primary mechanisms for driving the transformation agenda out of central government in the public private marketplace to completely change our society. He's also a member of the UK Government Industrial Strategy Advisory Council. Very influential, powerful guy and most importantly, he's a senior. Partner at McKinsey and Company, the global strategy and consulting firm that is a strategic partner of the World Economic Forum.

He's been there for 23 years, man and boy. He was at one point the global Chief technology officer. So a very important role in the firm in an increasingly technology enabled system that we're in.

Interestingly, he was managing partner of UK and Ireland and Israel. So interestingly, as part of the government's 2030 integration agenda, there's a kind of a counterpart happening out in the marketplace with organizations like McKinsey in particular basically merging their Israel and UK operations, which I think is quite an astonishing thing. And he was in that position from 2022 to 25. And he's just been bumped up into the top job in Europe,

interestingly. So he's done a great job there, apparently earning lots of money for the firm. And he's now the managing partner for Europe, for McKinsey. And he put out this little statement. It's just an excerpt here. I'll put a link to it. You can go and read the whole thing. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say I step into this role at a dynamic time for Europe and our clients. Powerful forces are redefining industries and shifting the foundations of national

competitiveness. There is an increasingly urgent need to boost productivity, strengthen Europe's competitiveness, build new European champions and ensure the region continues to lead on the global stage. That's his big message and actually very helpfully outlined 5 key recommendations, what he calls imperatives for corporate leaders. And I think the language here deserves some scrutiny. And imperative is a command. So he's essentially dictating to corporate leaders.

And that means the people running multinational corporations. So this is FTSE 350 global brands, McKinsey work at board level with about 90% of listed firms, right? So the this message is going right to the top, to the boardrooms in the corporations who are essentially enabling this huge economic transition that we're going through. And that guy, Mr. Tunde is setting the pace, he's calling the shots, he's telling them what to do. So what are the things that he's

been, he's recommending? So the first one is this shaping A concentrated base of long term and aligned investors, That means reducing ownership down to as smaller number of institutional firms as possible who will ultimately think and

want the same thing. So this is about establishing relationships with the black rocks and the vanguards and the state streets and the institutional funds that are driving the agenda because that makes it easier for you to implement it. You don't have any pesky retail shareholders raising inconvenient questions at the AGM. You just get to wave stuff through. What else is he saying? We need to align ambition with management and board incentives.

So that's basically using pay and stock to incentivise your leaders to do what you want them to do. So that's management and board, not the workers. Importantly, this is about getting the rest of the overseer class in the plantation aligned with what the owner class and the other management people want them to do, exploring tech LED business models, new geographies, new products. So this is about automation ultimately reducing headcount, the number of people that you employ.

It's also about embedding globalization. So if you're moving into new geographies, this is about international cross-border trade. They love that because it necessitates a whole bunch of other things, international supply chains, cross-border payments, all that kind of stuff. And also it's about increasing the number of people that you compete with. So if you're delivering new products and services, it means that you're competing with other

other firms. That means that there's less opportunity for new entrants to come to the marketplace since this is the consolidation of the corporate profit platform. That's what's going on here, partnering with innovators to make bold investments in technology. So this is about working in partnership with big tech, NVIDIA, Microsoft, you know the names. And all of that will be facilitated by McKinsey, who will earn a lot of money from cutting those deals.

And then finally, purposefully re skilling the workforce, right? So this is about driving the people, the slave class, essentially the workers. You don't own anything to become ever more tightly embedded with and subservient to technology, in particular AI, right? And the AI is basically, if we're going to continue with our overseer analogy, that is the whip in the hand of the overseer. That's the AI, right? That's essentially what that's doing.

Yeah, pretty crazy actually. You know, to see the how much they sort of distill it down to just five key points. But there's so much in there. And one of the things that I immediately did when I saw this was go, is there a way that shareholders can push back on this stuff?

And actually really interestingly, if you go and look at the way that shareholdings in listed companies in the UK have transformed since the 60s against those statistics I showed earlier on or from the early 60s where the concentration of welcome to the hands of the 1%. You can actually track that really neatly and show that the amount of shares owned by individuals in these big listed companies has gone down from over 50% to just over 10% / a period of about 60 years, right?

And that essentially means that all of the power in the markets has been taken away from individuals and small shareholders and, um, and, and actually is now in the hands of institutional investors, but importantly, non UK and non European based institutional investors. So actually the, the economic system is completely out of our hands and there's no recourse within the existing system.

So essentially what we need to do, I talk about this a lot is so far as possible, and this is not always that easy to achieve. We need to take our business, vote with our wallets, get away from listed companies completely. You know, get away from the FTSE. Go and have a look at who's listed in the FTSE. You know, the names, they're on the High Street, they're on your TV screen. Stop buying from them.

Yeah, because what they're doing is implementing this totalitarian agenda that your man Tunde there is dictating terms around. Right. And this, this Ben is absolutely stripping the wealth out of the UK as a nation state. And what a simple graph that is. Yeah, stripping wealth, stripping intellectual property, the the all agency and sovereignty. Yeah, you know, in the market and a similar thing is happening in the political system as well, right?

And it's and as I say, it's not just the market, it's also government. And actually if I just go back to that, the full post that we can see here, this is what he shared. You can see that he gets a little, little shout out from that guy. Outstanding. You Will Rock as usual. Go today. That's from Paul Wilmot. Who's he? Well, he's another senior McKinsey guy. So he was managing partner from McKinsey Digital 96 to 2019. So actually at some point you probably would have been 10 days maybe.

His boss, certainly a close colleague. He was also chief digital and information officer at Lego, interestingly. Lego, there's some fascinating stuff actually when you really dig into what LEGO's done and is doing in terms of kids development. Like there's a whole, there's a whole show we could do there. But also of course he's slap bang in the middle of UK government. So he was the chair the UK Government Digital and Data Office.

So you've got today in the market, this guy in government, their colleagues, they've worked together for years. And as I spoke about a couple of months ago, I think it was UK government digital and data office has been completely transformed by former McKinsey people. And he's now completely owned and operated by Amazon,

essentially, right. So these people just gone in and, and taken all of our national assets and he's still in there that that role ended back in January, but he's still a non executive desit overseeing the, the transformation agenda, right? And this is, this is what's happening in in the, the countries, what's happening in

the market. And I, I don't want to over egg this too much, but I do think that it's worth dwelling on the point that we now have a Nigerian guy essentially dictating economic policy across the whole of Europe. And I do wonder like how appropriate that is, you know, should we be celebrating this? Should we be pursuing this is a course of action? And, and to his credit, I, I think I haven't actually seen Mr. Tunde talking too much about these kind of divisive racial issues.

But actually his predecessor at McKinsey has done a lot and that's this lady, Dame Vivian Hunt DBE. So she was a senior partner at McKinsey and company. She was the life sciences lead for six years, so helping the global pharmaceutical companies make a lot more money. She was then managing partner of UK and Ireland and and having left there, went to become the chief innovation officer at the United Health Group. So this is one of the biggest

healthcare companies on earth. I think it's the fourth richest company on the in the in the US made like extraordinarily powerful and wealthy. She's also in the Trilateral Commission. She loves playing these racial games. So powerless foundation most influential black woman in Britain as he was also a founding trustee of the Black Equity Organization, which I've spoken about a lot previously, which is essentially been set up to deal with issues of what they call systemic racism.

But actually we can see just for the existence of Dame Vivian Hunt DBE, her own position in society. The the and also turn day who I was speaking about earlier, his position within McKinsey. The, the, the extraordinary privilege and wealth and power that these people have that actually there aren't really any issues of systemic racism in our society at all. And actually these people are just feathering their own nest. They're wolves in sheep's

clothing. Apparently they're coming to make things fairer, but actually they are quite literally overseers in a slave system, right? And actually, Dame Vivian Hunt was made an overseer of Harvard University last year. That's what Harvard calls the people who run its university, which I think is an extraordinarily striking way of describing what they're about and what they do. And certainly we should be watching them every moment of every day.

A few people in the chat box are saying yes, but the sort of language is rubbish. Well, it may be rubbish, but we need to understand what they are saying because if we know their language, we can understand what they're planning and therefore we can disrupt and stop it. So language is very important, but certainly don't just dismiss, miss what they're saying as nonsense because they are changing our world using their language. Diane, let's bring you back.

And a key subject which many, many people I've got huge concerns about, and that's geoengineering. But of course, some of it we can see, some of it is visual, is visible, and some of it is almost hidden in plain sight. And to really start to take some of this apart, we need to be very sure what's factual and what's not. But what have you got for us? Yes, thanks, Brian. And and just to reiterate one more time, I do love carbon

dioxide. It's been all over the mainstream news the last few days and on social media as a result that we should just be looking up they're they're doing this, they're doing this. So here's one example from the Guardian saying UK scientists to launch outdoor geoengineering experiments. Blocking the sunlight could temporarily slow the climate crisis, but the technologies remain highly controversial. So similar stories all over the

place the last few days. This is referring to a £56 million set of projects funded by Aria, the Advanced Research and Invention Agency. I won't go into Aria in detail because we've been covering Aria on UK columns since 2021 and it would Basically it's AUK, it's under the UK Department for Science, Innovation and Technology. It's very secretive. You are not allowed to send freedom requests, Freedom of Information requests to Aria because they will not respond to them.

Last week I sent out a post on X that mentioned the report that I did on geoengineering 2 weeks ago and even though my my post got almost no views two weeks ago when I did it it it now has over 11,000 views. Just to show you how popular this topic is becoming, So this project through Aria is basically is sort of the brainchild of Professor Mark Symes from the University of Glasgow.

And his quote about the project that which is on the Aria website, is that decarbonization is vital, but our current progress puts us at risk of triggering a large number of temperature induced climate tipping points. The program will explore critical unanswered questions as to how or whether we might pull the Earth safely and responsibly on the time scales required to avoid climate catastrophe.

So the background to Mark Professor Simes is that he was in the first cohort of program directors, as they're called it, Aria, which started in October of 2023, and he's now finished his time in that role. There's now 8 new program directors. What the program directors do is they create what are called opportunity spaces, which they say are under important but under explored areas of research that we believe are right for breakthroughs.

They each serve as a bedrock from what's all your programs directed by our program directors. And so this was his idea as the program director. His opportunity space was called Future proof proofing our climates and weather and Charles Mallett first mentioned that back on UK column News on the 22nd of May 2024. The website has a page explaining the program under the opportunity space, which is called Exploring climate

cooling. And what this this this slide that I've got up here now is from the video that he used to explain to people who wanted to apply for the funding what they would be funding. So possible research areas include, for example, stratospheric aerosol injection, we recalled lightning brightening, cloud thinning, cloud cover control, space based reflectors, ice thickening manipulation and other whatever that is. So that's the £56 million project in a very quick summary.

But what I want to go further into is not just looking up, but also we need to be looking down into the water. And I want to talk about what is not being covered, which is what they're doing to our seas. One project has been circulating recently. I've seen a bit on mainstream news. Here's from the BBC is about sucking carbon out of the sea. This project is called Sea Cure, Seawater, Carbon Unlocking and Renewal.

This is funded by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero. It will not be funded through the sale of carbon or carbon removal credits.

Apparently the partners are Brunel University London, a company that works with water companies throughout the UK and Ireland and what we know about water around the country called Iliko Hydroc, University of Exeter and Plymouth Marine Laboratory. Professor Tom Bell is a Plumberry Laboratory right down the street by near you, Brian Ben. He said that see here is a project investigating an ocean carbon dioxide removal technique that involves using the natural processes of the ocean like a

sponge, ringing out the sponge to remove the carbon to be stored geologically and then releasing that low carbon water back into the ocean where it sits and absorbs the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and thus releasing carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. And now I want to go into seaweed because seaweed apparently is becoming a very

important material. Back in 2019, this Plymouth Marine Laboratory published an article called Seaweed Potential in the Southwest, which said seaweed is an underutilized and under cultivated commodity but offers huge potential variety of products. And let's hear what Prince William had to say about seaweeds back in December. The title of the full video, which we won't see the whole thing of, is Prince William and Hannah Waddington Play Darts.

This was from December 2024. The most important question, Sir, that I need to ask you is what on earth is your obsession with seaweed all about? Why have you got a fixation on seaweed through Earth? Sure. I've suddenly realised how important seaweed is. It sequesters carbon. It's when it's a sequester, it draws down carbon. Thank you. It's cleans the oceans, so it has a natural cleansing process.

It takes pollutants and toxics out of the water and you can make things from it. And in 2022, one of our finest Notpla, which stands for Not plastic, I remember not, and they created effectively plastic everything but through seaweed. So Prince William, our future king, is very excited about seaweed. Another project that is going on related to seaweed is just also from Plymouthbury Laboratory has just been become fully operational.

Young seaweed has been planted in near a wind farm in the Netherlands. So let's hear from the professor who is in charge of this particular project. Her name is Anya Kaneros. So this is a particularly exciting project. So what we're doing is we're looking at a potentially large scale activity of seaweed

farming offshore. And what we're trying to do is try to understand the potential to grow that seaweed offshore using wind farms as infrastructure supporting them, and try to understand what is the capacity of that business and what are the carbon fluxes associated with it and the potential biodiversity value. The seaweed in particular have received a lot of attention in the last decade because they have very high rates of CO2 absorption.

So they are one of the main sinks of CO2 in the ocean in terms of rates per gram of biomass. However, the challenge with seaweed is that the seaweed in themselves don't sequester carbon, so they don't hold the carbon for a very long period. And so the challenge here is to try and understand what happens to seaweed carbon in the long

term. PML are the lead scientific institution in the project and what we bring is the expertise that we've been developing in in recent years in the ability to follow carbon and seaweed detritus from farms and natural seaweed habitats to the sea floor where it might be sequestered. The main interest for PML is really to understand whether we can support the growth of the industry in a way that is sustainable.

So we're talking about managing the marine environment and adding potentially quite large scale activities. Our interest is in understanding the carbon value of the of these farmed habitats, their impacts on the global carbon cycle and also their impacts on local biodiversity. There is the suggestion that these seaweed farms could have positive effects on local biodiversity.

So we'll be measuring that and in future, what we hope is to be able to inform policy that might allow us to grow the sector in a way that is good for business but also good for the ocean. So I don't really know what all of that meant. I'm not sure she did either. So I got in touch with Alex Thompson because he is lives in the Netherlands, of course, and I wanted to know what he knew about this wind farm and the seaweed farm, if anything. And so he sent me a voice

message and reply. So let's listen to what he said, please. I had heard vaguely that there was talk of massive offshore wind farms in that sector. Not sure how Amazon got so dominant. I do know that the Belgian sector of the shallow N seacoast, so just South of where these are going up in the southern Dutch sector. The Belgian sector in some parts is a chemical soup and increasingly toxic because a lot of First World War munitions were dumped on the continental

shelf there. And after 100 plus years, the cases are starting to rot and all kinds of goop is leaking out in a massively busy shipping lane. And it's not that much less severe in this southern Netherlands stretch. There's quite a lot of shipping going past and it's extremely shallow.

So really that good news about the, the chemical information there that he shared, the reason he mentioned Amazon, I should have said before, is that Amazon is actually funding this project with the, the seaweed farm for whatever reason, they have a climate change fund that they they decide what they're going to fund on that. So, so moving on from there, I, I just again want to encourage people to look at official good sources and not get panicked, not get emotional.

The net office does have a position on geoengineering research. On their web page, they do say that their contribution will be based on that was my emphasis simulations using climate models. We do not advocate or provide context for real world physical experiments. So I maybe just have some questions there about what their what their contribution is that they say, what it is based on. But what is the contribution?

Just this morning I was watching Wake Up with Sonia Poulton and she had a guest on who mentioned this particular report, Dan Stevens. This is from the House of Commons, The Regulation of New Engineering. This was printed in March 2010. Because I haven't read about it, but I just heard about it. But I would take a look at that as well. It's 116 pages long, so that will give you something to look at for sure. And there is a petition that has been circulating.

It took a while to take some traction, but I think because of all the mainstream coverage, it's really gone out there. It's last time I looked this morning, it had around 85,000 signatures. And so we want to at least get to 100,000. But at the same time, will they do anything? Probably not, because this all ties in with them meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement. So whether or not it will make a difference, we don't know, but

we have to try. And just finally, I'd like to end on this meme I saw over the weekend. You see all of them laughing at us. First, we'll force them to rely on solar farms for electricity. Then we'll block out the sun. Great. But we, we have to laugh, to add, but overall it is, it is unbelievably serious to see what these people think they can do, which is control the world, control space even.

We have to stay on top of it. We have to keep reporting what the, the real facts and information around this is. And of course, people have to become active. So once again, I'm going to say Kathy was with us today, one of those people who's out and about doing things. If you're trying to counter what's happening and you've got a specialist area, by all means stay in that. Do your best, encourage other people to join you, but don't point a finger at people who've got other priorities.

This is a battle that needs to be shared and if we work together as one big team in nation States and across the world, we can do something to stop this appalling agenda. Let's send there. Thank you all very much for joining me today. We will have an extra and a few minutes for UK column members. We will see you then. Otherwise UK column be back same time on Wednesday. Bye bye.
