WARNING - Remember when I told you about Client side scanning? (Original post below) On 9 November, the government confirmed it is preparing legislation to put this technology into smartphone operating systems, switched ON by default. existing phones will receive it through software updates. Adults would have to prove they’re over 18 to switch it OFF. The EU has been pushing similar proposals under “Chat Control”. It means software will inspect images and content on your device, before you send them or even view them. In June, the government was asked whether this technology could also be used to detect and block ‘hate’ speech and other text content. It confirmed it would consider wider uses. Which means, with Ofcom’s new rules on responding to ‘crisis’ situations, the technology could be expanded to prevent you from sharing content the authorities decide is unacceptable. Instead of censoring you after you post it, they could stop you posting it in the first place. But you still have free speech obvs 🙄

WOW … Mad Ed has decided Climate change is a National Security risk! … opposing his climate policies now means putting national security at risk! In September, he co hosted a UN meeting with the EU and Kenya, agreeing to … ▪️ Embed climate risks into national security assessments and contingency planning. ▪️ Push UN agencies to incorporate climate security into their work. ▪️ Support the IMF and World Bank factoring climate risks into national debt assessments. ▪️ Develop new economic measures to shape the UN’s post 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. And now challenging and disagreeing with the political agenda is portrayed as threats to national security! (Handy for that online censorship) This means disagreeing with government’s policies could make you national security issue! Climate change should not give politicians a blank cheque to expand international influence over democratic policy. And Ed Miliband does not get to decide that questioning his agenda is a threat to Britain.

The government is expanding HMRC’s powers to demand digital information, including your conversations with ChatGPT and other AI if you’ve used them to calculate or discuss tax. The government says this is about tax compliance (Of course it does) The age of total control by the state, privacy is dead.

🚨 Right, let’s get back to this! … tomorrow at COP31 the UN is launching Natural Capital. For millions of years on planet Earth forests, plants, grass and the oceans have absorbed carbon, the soils store it and rivers have carried water. No one owns this output! its life force is free for all living creatures on the planet. A God given gift. But the UN and its massive network want to give those natural processes financial values, convert them into credits and trade them on international markets. A company can already buy credits linked to a forest’s carbon absorption to offset its own emissions. Banks, investors, brokers and project developers can make money from arranging and trading those credits. This addition to the system is called NATURAL CAPITAL … It puts a financial value on biodiversity, forests, wetlands and the services nature and God provides for free. It creates opportunities for enormous private wealth from natural processes that none of these institutions created. And not one citizen has voted on this, nor will they be able to. No one has the moral authority to turn what belongs to all on the Earth into profit for the UN and financial institutions. But they are doing it anyway. 🚨

Yes it’s true … British tax payers are going to be forced to bail out the National grid. Just so you know the ‘National Grid’ isn’t owned by us. Er no…. It’s a privately owned company with international shareholders, with almost £49 BILLION of debt, forecast to reach £60–70 BILLION by 2031. The massive costs of upgrading the grid including financing costs and shareholder returns (obvs) , is paid through increasing OUR energy bills. Much of this investment is because of the Government’s Net Zero targets. And if it gets into serious financial trouble, the law even allows government financial support (paid for by taxpayers) It’s a bloody brilliant private investment where the investors never lose. And ordinary people always pay. Now watch what they do with nature.
