Dear Vicki, we are not happy to do stuff like this, believe us. However we must avoid anything like this happening again. I do not know if Dr Bridle settled with Guelph, but it looks like it as his bio on their website had disappeared but now has been given the sunshine treatment. I sincerely hope he has taken them to the cleaners.

Best, Tom.

Absolutely shocking to read what Dr Bridle had to contend with, and it makes me more grateful that the two secret squirrels are willing to risk their careers and reputations when they could face a similar fate.

I am,however, reassured that Dame Jenny Harries of UKHSA will do her utmost to uphold 'research integrity and transparency' and thus would steam in to counteract any devious character assassinations and misrepresentation of data by MHRA as

a) that's what it says on the website https://research.ukhsa.gov.uk/research-integrity/

b) surely UKHSA trumps MHRA in terms of civil service powers? If not,why not??

I get so confused: I ‘liked’ your post, but really disliked the whole toxic story. I am saddened, enraged, frustrated. Then I remember to breathe, exercise compassion liberally, and practise patience. Rome wasn’t built in a day. Thank you for sharing this story, and the story it “blossomed” in. There is a pattern of public health watchdogs losing their bark while their bite is now saved for the hand that feeds them. And there are also a few fact-check fiction writers whose spooky desks are being vacated.

It’s more subtle here. Some of those challenging the prevailing gospel, like myself and Angus Dalgleish, have submitted evidence to the Hallett Inquiry but, as we are not being called to give testimony in person, find that our submissions are not being put online. Of course, being retired and having taken myself off the GMC Register, I don’t have as much to lose as Dr Bridle (or the various defenestrated US physicians…

I hope he got a massive settlement. I see Mark Zuckerberg has seen which way the wind is blowing and is even now rewinding years of censorship tools embedded in Farcebook....

The treatment of Dr Bridle in Canada sadly also occurred to others in UK, US and Australia - unsure about NZ. All are members of the Five Eyes - 'Five Eyes is a treaty for joint cooperation in signals intelligence among Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK, and the US. ' ref Wiki .

MI5 is the UK sponsor.

I'm currently reading 'The Accountability Deficit ' ISBN 978-1-916572-44-7 factual, well written and researched. Just reading the chapters on Suppression & Censorship followed by Propaganda. Written by UsforThem a small group concerned about kids during the plandemic eg school closures, vaccinations etc - and as they say concerned when none of the established kids charities raised their heads above the parapets.

They also have useful videos on Youtube https://tinyurl.com/53h79vrf

I have no connection with UsforThem. But I am impressed !

Accountability?

Hmmm.

Will Handycock, Whitty, Valence, Michie, Farrar, Hallett [Insert your favourite dozen here] ever be held to account? They may have plenty of gongs and pleasant sinecures, but basic human decency?

Listen carefully, you will just be able to hear:- ""Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!" (with apologies to "Treasure of the Sierra Madre").

Dr Byram Bridle - at the Canadian National Citizens Inquiry October 2024 https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/witness/dr-byram-bridle/

He covers six examples in the first hour - showing Canadian Regulatory to be untrustworthy.

It appears that women are significantly more at risk from the product than men.

“Those who have greatest cause for guilt and shame

Are quickest to besmirch a neighbour's name.

When there's a chance for libel, they never miss it;

When something can be made to seem illicit

They're off at once to spread the joyous news,

Adding to fact what fantasies they choose.

By talking up their neighbour's indiscretions

They seek to camouflage their own transgressions,

Hoping that other's innocent affairs

Will lend camouflage to theirs,

Or that their own black guilt will come to seem

Part of a gerenal shady color-sheme”

― Molière
