1/ The WEF is funded by global Corporations & now they have influence over strategic government funding to benefit its members not us, despite soundbites to the contrary.
The UK government is allowing it to shape our future, incl. the NHS & infrastructure spend, remember that.
2/ On UK. gov its hidden in plain site.
"UK and World Economic Forum to lead regulation revolution to foster industries of the future"
But only those that benefit members. obvs. gov.uk/government/new…
3/ And if you dig a bit deeper, here's the partnership with the NHS for public and private partnerships. The partners are of course members of the WEF ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/const…
4/ And then theres that all important infrastructure and and capital spend. Can't let a good "build back better" soundbite go to waste. ice.org.uk/news-and-insig…
Wander with me through my thought process. The bigger problem.
1/ The last 3 years has created millions & millions of ‘Never vaxxers’ it’s not their fault that they no longer believe or trust the medical or pharmaceutical industry & will never trust their governments again.
2/ That’s a problem! Because many diseases are kept under control by the old fashioned vaccines we all had, willingly take & give to our children. Diseases like polio, smallpox & TB which kill people, have been kept under control in the west for decades. But could now resurface.
3/ And they could spiral, possibly out of control. This will lead to the WHO & the UN stepping up efforts to ‘protect’ people, with new vaccines, ones the ‘never vaxxers’ will never trust! That’s the problem with crying wolf & lying to the public.
1/ Why I back #AxeTheTax and suggest they:
▪️Remove ALL green taxes immediately
▪️Stop any interest rate rises
▪️Cancel the NI tax increase
▪️Lower corporation tax
If they don't they are incompetent or deliberately forcing through policies that will destroy small businesses.
2/ Lets talk about business. 99% of all businesses in the UK employ fewer than 10 people, but account for two thirds of employment & over half the UKs revenue. Many business owners have loans taken out against their own homes & are just surviving after the lockdown chaos.
3/ Private businesses aren't the big bad enemy of the people, they are employers of the people. If they lose money they will cut costs in order to survive. One of their costs is us, the people they employ.
1/ Thread about China
I hear the argument to onshore manufacturing back into the UK and have written about the economic cost of doing so. But the bigger picture is how much China is already embedded in the UK, through their massive investments in key industries & debt.
2/ Chinese investors have amassed over £134b of assets in the UK. These include energy companies, transport hubs, schools, pharma, technology, retail and property. Over 200 companies and groups are invested in or controlled by Chinese investors.
3/ Some of these investments are in key UK infrastructure, including
▪️Hinckley Point Nuclear power station
▪️Heathrow Airport
▪️Northumbrian Water
▪️Thames water
▪️UK power networks
▪️oil and natural gas Neptune Energy
▪️ Felixstow port
1/The UK & the West relies heavily on cheap labour & goods to consumerise (new word) our economies.
This importation of products, cheaper than we can ever produce because of minimum wage & working condition requirements, has infiltrated every part of our consumer world.
3/ Talk of boycotting China and all their products is naive. Here's a list of categories of products and materials used to manufacture cheaply. Without them the gap between rich and poor would be enormous, plunging most of the country into poverty.
4/ Longer term strategies for changing the way our economies work and grow are needed. Our MP's are completely inadequate, which allows opportunists, both corporate and globalist to lead them so easily.
Thread 1/ Watching James 'Not so' Cleverly on Sky. discussing energy prices and home heating bills.
As usual he has totally ignored or missed the bigger picture. Not only will people face paying almost double for their energy, everything they buy is about to increase in price.
2/ Businesses will have massive increases in their energy costs, both in the UK and in every country where products are manufactured. They have also seen huge increases in the price of raw materials, including cardboard for packaging, silicone, plastics, electronics etc..
3/ There are several key reasons for this, energy costs are only one.
COVID lockdowns world wide have meant a reduction in availability of raw materials, shortages of labour to produce finished goods and thousands of factories turned over to the production of PPE.
