British Communist dubbed ‘Stalin’s nanny’ Appointed to the World Health Organization (WHO)

British scientist and longstanding Communist party member Susan Michie has been appointed Chair of the World Health Organization’s Technical Advisory Group on Behavioural Insights and Sciences for Health. Professor Michie was a member of a sub-group advising SAGE, the UK government health advisory body that imposed Draconian lockdowns and mandates.

The health psychology professor was a keen advocate and zealot in trying to bring about stringent Zero-Covid communist style restrictions in the UK including a Christmas lockdown. Michie was a regular contributor on mainstream TV and radio with constant doom-laden forecasts. She once called opening up society again as building terrifying new “variant factories.”

In an interview on Channel 5 in 2021, when pressed about the timeline of masks and social distancing, she said: “I think forever, to some extent.” During the same interview, she compared and normalized Covid restrictions to wearing a seatbelt and picking up dog poo in a park.

Michie was a key player in weaponizing fear by using covert psychological tactics on the population to push the Covid narrative in the UK. It comes as no shock that the WHO would appoint the ilk of Susan Michie to their ranks. Recently re-elected to serve a five-year term, Director-General of the WHO Tedros Adhanom also has a questionable communist past.

Originally from Ethiopia, he grew up in the northern Tigray region and became a member of the communist leaning Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF). He rose through the ranks of the TDLF party leading to important roles in the Ethiopian government first as health minister and then as foreign minister.

A former Nobel Peace Prize nominee, David Steinman, has accused Tedros of genocide for his alleged role in directing security forces to kill and torture its own people from 2013-2015. Steinman has lodged a complaint at the International Criminal Court in the Hague. Tedros has denied the allegations.

Steinman claimed that while Tedros was in a senior government position, the regime was ‘marked by widespread or systematic crimes against humanity by subordinates’. Steinman was a foreign advisor to the Ethiopian democracy movement for 27 years.

Tedros is a close ally of the communist regime in China and heaped unwanted praise on their initial Covid response back in January/February 2020. He hailed the Chinese response to Covid as ‘beyond words’. It is no coincidence that China has made financial contributions to both the Ethiopian aid budget and to the WHO while Tedros has been in charge.

It comes as no surprise that the WHO have selected a self-confessed communist to their ‘Nudge Unit’. Susan Michie will fit right in with her new ‘commie’ friends.

French Farmer Wins Court Case Over 4G Phone Tower

A resolute farmer in central-east France recently won a battle in court resulting in a court order requiring local authorities to temporarily turn off a 4G antenna for two months over animal welfare concerns on his farm.

According to Mr. Frederic Salgues, since the installation of the 4G antennas in July 2021 — 200 metres from his farm — 40 of his 200 strong herd had died, his herd were feeding less, and milk production had decreased by nearly 20% within days of the cell phone tower being switched on. He added, “There are no medical elements that could [otherwise] explain this brutal drop in milk production.”

In May 2022, the administrative court in Clermont-Ferrand ruled in favour of the French farmer by stating that, “it is appropriate to order the temporary cessation of the operation of this antenna for a period of two months, taking into account its general impact, with monitoring, by the judicial expert, of the behaviour of the herd, and of the dairy cows in particular, during this period.”

The mobile network operators who installed the 4G antenna now have three months to act on the court hearing recommendations. A judicial expert has been tasked with monitoring and supervising the entire process to record data and compile a detailed report in their findings to see if there is a possible link between the antenna and the odd behaviour from his livestock.

In 2021, in a separate incident regarding 5G technology in France, two Catholic monks based near Lyon were arrested for setting fire to a 5G antenna. According to Agence France-Presse (AFP), the men admitted to the crime, telling a local prosecutor that they acted to “protect the population from the harmful effects of 5G.”

After the positive court ruling, Mr. Salgues told AFP news that he hoped his cows would be able to “recover as soon as possible” and called the case ruling, “a major relief, redemption and a victory.”

In Europe and beyond, farmers are leading the charge against authoritarianism and are proving not to be messed around with.

No Clear Evidence That Depression is Caused by a Chemical Imbalance According to University College London Research Team

Researchers from University College London (UCL) have published eye-opening findings that may have a seismic shift in how we view and treat depression.

Joanna Moncrieff, lead author of the study and professor of psychiatry at University College London said: “It is always difficult to prove a negative, but I think we can safely say that after a vast amount of research conducted over several decades, there is no convincing evidence that depression is caused by serotonin abnormalities, particularly by lower levels or reduced activity of serotonin.”

“The popularity of the ‘chemical imbalance’ theory of depression has coincided with a huge increase in the use of antidepressants…”

“Thousands of people suffer from side-effects of antidepressants, including the severe withdrawal effects that can occur when people try to stop them, yet prescription rates continue to rise.”

Co-author of the research Dr. Mark Horowitz reacted to their findings by saying: “I had been taught that depression was caused by low serotonin in my psychiatry training and had even taught this to students in my own lectures. Being involved in this research was eye-opening and feels like everything I thought I knew has been flipped upside down. It is high time to inform the public that this belief is not grounded in science.”

The UCL team also highlighted that many studies found that precipitating external factors such as stressful life events can increase likelihood of depressive features. More pluralistic treatment options such as psychotherapy alongside practices such as exercise, self-care, and mindfulness, or addressing underlying perpetuating factors such as poverty, stress and loneliness can greatly help with low mood, was recommended by the researchers.

Dr. Horowitz said: “One interesting aspect in the studies we examined was how strong an effect life events played in depression, suggesting low mood is a response to people’s lives and cannot be boiled down to a simple chemical equation. We believe the situation has been driven partly by the false belief that depression is due to a chemical imbalance.”

The ground-breaking umbrella peer-review meticulously examined all relevant studies and research published on depression and serotonin. The detailed review can be found in the scientific journal Molecular Psychiatry under the title: The serotonin theory of depression: a systematic umbrella review of evidence.

The professor and consultant psychiatrist, Moncrieff, also questioned the efficacy of antidepressants by stating: “Our view is that patients should not be told that depression is caused by low serotonin or by a chemical imbalance, and they should not be led to believe that antidepressants work by targeting these unproven abnormalities. We do not understand what antidepressants are doing to the brain exactly and giving people this sort of misinformation prevents them from making an informed decision about whether to take antidepressants or not.”

A diagnosis of depression and the instant subsequent prescription of antidepressants is hugely profitable for pharmaceutical industries. The money-making pharmaceutical industry has freely worked hand in hand with psychiatry for decades with only minimal inquiry into its over-simplification methods and faulty consensus.

Antidepressant drugs rank third in pharmaceutical sales worldwide. According to a report from Fortune Business Insights, the global antidepressant market size is projected to reach USD 18.29 billion by 2027.

It is high time that enlightened health professionals and service-users question the psychiatric and big pharma industry over its inaccuracies, pseudo-science, and reliance on popping pills.

Norwegian Woman Faces Jail Time for Stating Biological Facts

A Norwegian self-described feminist is facing up to three years in prison due to a number of no-nonsense common sensical tweets asserting that men cannot be lesbians.

Between February 2021 and January 2022, Christina Ellingsen, a member of the global feminist organization Women’s Declaration International (WDI), tweeted, “Why (does) FRI teach young people that males can be lesbians? Isn’t that conversion therapy?”

Her not so controversial tweets were directed at Christine Marie Jentoft, a representative f A Norwegian self-described feminist is facing up to three years in prison due or a Norwegian trans-female activist group Foreningen FRI. Jentoft was born a biological male but now identifies as a lesbian woman.

Another tweet that has reportedly being deemed as hate speech read: “Jentoft, who is male and an advisor in FRI, presents himself as a lesbian-that’s how bonkers the organization which supposedly works to protect young lesbians’ interests is. How does it help young lesbians when males claim to be lesbian, too?” In response to the investigation Ellingsen spoke with Reduxx, a pro-woman, pro-child safeguarding news online platform. She said: “I am under police investigation for campaigning for women’s rights, because to certain groups, the fact that women and girls are female and that men cannot be women, girls, mothers or lesbians, is considered hateful.” “Women are not protected against hate speech in Norway, but men who claim to be lesbian and a woman, are protected both on the grounds of gender identity and on the grounds of sexual orientation.” “The fact that police are legally able to investigate and prosecute women who engage in women’s rights is concerning. This is new territory in Norway, so the outcome of the investigation is important, both if the case is dismissed and if it leads to a trial.” Once again George Orwell was prophetic when he said, “The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it.” Speaking common sense and stating the obvious will soon be seen as a revolutionary act.
