Authoritarian government always suppresses free speech, but the worst part is that the public joins in, says Sallust, as he sees lessons in the 1939 writings of Nora Waln, who saw the iron fist coming down before her eyes.

UK Government manipulation of the BBC and social media over Covid

category international | politics / elections | other press author Tuesday September 19, 2023 21:40author by Sca - scamdemic watch Report this post to the editors

The British government set up a Counter Disinformation Unit (CDU) at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic [1]. A parliamentary inquiry has shown that this public body was censoring dissenting opinions.

The CDU is led by Sarah Connolly, a human rights specialist at Cambridge University. Its budget is undisclosed, but we are currently looking at a minimum of fifty employees, to which must be added those working for a subcontracted artificial intelligence company.

According to the Daily Telegraph of September 1, 2023, the CDU comprises representatives of the secret services (MI5, MI6, GCHQ) and the BBC [2].

In violation of the principle of freedom of expression, this agency has been instrumental in having dissenting opinions on Covid - such as those of Professor Carl Heneghan, Molly Kingsley and Doctor Alexandre de Figueiredo on measures concerning minors - pulled from the internet and from BBC television and radio programs.

This agency secretly lobbied social media in general. However, it reportedly encountered difficulties when it came to Twitter.
