The decision to delay lockdown in March - estimated to have cost 20,000 lives - was based on the entirely unscientific concept of ‘behavioural fatigue’
No one in govt remembers who came up with the concept
The @B_I_Tweets are run by Rachel Coyle, ex-cyber security head at MOD.
1/. This diagram shows how the US & UK govts appear to have a joint/parallel #COVID19 strategy, giving military-backed data-mining company, #Palantir, access to heath data on a mass scale
Palantir, founded by right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel, has links with #CambridgeAnalytica
2/. According to #CambridgeAnalytica whistleblower, @chrisinsilico, in 2015 he was tasked by Steve Bannon to build a psychological warfare tool designed to use big data & social media to drive open cracks in societies & hollow out democracies.
It worked!
3/. Thiel not only backed Trump in 2016, but Palantir employees reportedly worked with #CambridgeAnalytica, harvesting Facebook data ahead of the elections
At the start of 2017, Trump appointed three Palantir employees, to key roles in his administration.
2/. “This change didn't happen by chance. The demand was led by survivors who told their stories & lobbied to try & ensure no other woman would have to endure what they had suffered" @Helle_Jac@amnestydk
3/. To support survivors, @amnesty undertook research & published reports which identified barriers to justice for women
“Changing these dangerous rape laws is a major step towards ending widespread harmful myths, stereotypes, stigma & endemic impunity for this crime” @AnnaMBlus
In April, @Channel4News has seen the inventory of the UK govt’s pandemic PPE stockpile. Almost 80% of respirators were out of date when #coronavirus hit.
The UK had had a three month head start to prepare for #COVID19
Last week, I started this👇 thread on how #Trump appears to be gearing-up for military action against Iran
Today, @nytimes revealed "Trump asked senior advisers in a meeting on Thursday whether he had options to take action against #Iran’s main nuclear site in the coming weeks.”
Any military orders by #Trump are transmitted through the secretary of defense
By replacing Esner with Miller & giving top Pentagon & Intelligence jobs his allies, Trump appears to have created a chain-of-command that would support military action in Iran
This diagram👆shows how the US & UK govts appear to have a joint/parallel #COVID19 strategy allowing the military-backed data-mining company, #Palantir, to control heath data
Parler, the SM platform is funded by the Mercers who funded #CambridgeAnalytica who worked with Palantir
