Jenny Goddard founded Real Food Hub, an online farmers’ market, where customers can buy high quality animal welfare meat and other quality products directly from the farmers & producers like Gazegill Organic. Emma Robinson’s family have been farming organically at Gazegill on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border in the Pennines for almost 500 years.
Emma says, “Our pork is different and tastes like pork used to taste, we put this down to how we rear them, slowly and outdoors where they behave in a natural way using their muscles more but giving a flavour that is unique.”
Jenny says, “Real Food Hub suppliers make really good meat boxes where the farmers are getting to use the whole carcass, so the customers get a really good deal on price.”

Food, Farming & Ecocide
Though Regenerative Farming has pushed some farmers to improve their farming practices without the very rigid rules of achieving the organic label, even the BBC is aware that it has become a buzzword that giant food corporations use to greenwash chemical and fertiliser intensive farming.
Listen; What actually is Regenerative Agriculture? Farming Today, BBC 20 November 2023;
William Hudson (Lecturer in Regenerative Agriculture); “To start with, the most important thing we have to consider is how we try and rebuild the fertility in our soils. We’ve taken for granted over decades that we were able to just replace fertility by putting chemicals on. We have to now start managing our own fertility because now chemical fertiliser has become extremely expensive. It’s environmentally damaging to produce and it also harms the fertility in the soil. So starting with that concept of growing exploitative crops followed by regenerative crops, we’re able to cut our costs considerably.
So if we’re talking about cereal sugar beet rape, these are crops that remove fertiliser. If We’re talking about beans and peas, vetches and other feed crops, they’re fixing nitrogen and putting nitrogen back into the soil.
Part of the regenerative story is not importing animal feed from all around the world, it’s growing our own animal feed to feed our own animals. I think we’re actually seeing that the farmers with lower yields and lower input costs are actually making a greater margin.”
BBC Presenter; “There’s no legal definition of regenerative farming, unlike organic farming where you know where you stand. Big global companies like Mars and PepsiCo and McDonald’s and also agrochemicals giant Syngenta, they all say that they do regenerative farming. It’s good for showing that they’re sustainable and great PR. Is there any monitoring of what they do?”
William Hudson; “I think that there is a certain amount of greenwash going on at the same time. But I think that, because we have so many different types of farms, different models of different crops in different soils and in different climates, I think it has to be a very broad definition. Basically, I think what we’re talking about here is describing a strategy.”
BBC Presenter; “In terms of food production. If every farmer in the UK started farming regeneratively, could we still produce the amount of food we need?”
William Hudson; “We give a lot of food from all over the world to our animals and produce some very cheap meat. Maybe we should be eating more beans and peas and more of the crops rather than feeding them to animals. So I think that regenerative concepts is more than just soil and fertility. We actually have to think about our diet, where the animal food comes from. So I think the whole system has to be considered.”
As regenerative farming has no definition, it can include farming with both chemicals and gene edited seeds. I have to give credit to the BBC for including an organic farmer’s perspective along with a conventional regen farmer, who admits he uses glyphosate with the excuse that he doesn’t believe that organic will feed the world! Then of course there’s the biotech CEO and Director of NIAB, the National Institute of Agricultural Botany, which describes itself as the ‘UK’s fastest growing crop science organisation’ (gene editing). As regen ag confuses both the farmer and consumer, best to buy organic, not only to avoid the regen green wash, but help more farmers go fully organic – ultimately it is up to us to use the power of our purse by buying genuinely healthy food.
Listen; Regenerative Farming, Farming Today, BBC Radio, 25 Nov 2023;
BBC Presenter; “ Dr. James Palmer says he’s pro no-till, but concerned about glyphosate and the impact on human health. Terry Banfield called it a carcinogenic toxic weed killer that should be banned considering the damage caused to human health and flora and fauna. Both attached scientific papers to back up their views. Mario, is glyphosate an issue from your point of view?”
Mario Caccamo, CEO of Gene Editing company; “No, I think glyphosate is one of the tools in the box . Now the points around human health, they’re clearly debatable because there are many international organisations that have clearly established that glyphosate is not harmful to human human health. But…”
BBC Presenter; “And equally many who will argue that it is”.
Mario Caccamo, CEO of Gene Editing company; “Yes, and there is probably a debate there, but overall there is clearly something that we need to study more. But, the evidence is strongly suggesting that this is not really a problem. But let’s come back to the use of glyphosate and other chemicals. Clearly we want to reduce them, and that’s probably the principle we all should agree. We should try to reduce the dependency of any chemicals and we do have tools that will help us with that.”
BBC Presenter; “And Michael, I should say that some regenerative farmers absolutely reject any use of glyphosate. Where do you stand on this?”
Michael Kavanaugh, regen farmer; “I still use glyphosate, and I see it as a really crucial tool. However, I do agree that it is not good for human health. And actually, I think, given the choice; if we had two sandwiches in front of us and one of them had been farmed using umpteen chemicals and then been given a pre-harvest glyphosate, and the other sandwich had been produced with wheat that had had no chemicals or insecticide and had no pre-harvest glyphosate, but had maybe had one glyphosate to kill the cover crop or whatever before that wheat was drilled, I certainly know which sandwich I would rather eat. That is a crucial tool for us. But actually there’s plenty of farmers doing innovative things to reduce the rates of glyphosate that we’re using”.
BBC Presenter; “And Helen, we did have a message from a listener, Kevin Presland, to mention some work done by innovative farmers. They’re an on-farm trial organisation, originally set up by the Soil Association, he says that they’ve proved you can do min till and not use glyphosate.”
Helen Browning, Organic farmer and Chief Executive of the Soil Association; “I think this is the holy grail. He is actually getting away from both ploughing and using glyphosate, and I’d love to see a lot more research energy going into that. At my own farm here, we’re working on a strip till system. So, direct drilling our cereals into an existing clover lay. That feels really exciting, huge potential as there are with things like perennial crops as well, so that we are actually looking at the problem through a different lens.”
As the EU Commission has now voted to extend the licence for Glyphosate, it looks like lies, junk science, huge lobbying power and blackmailing dissenting scientists by threatening their grants, have won the day.
Read; EU allows use of controversial weedkiller glyphosate for 10 more years Barbara Casassus, Nature, 17 November 2023;
‘In the wake of a stalemate among member states, the European Commission has decided to approve the herbicide’s continued use.
After months of wrangling, the European Commission says it has decided to renew the licence for the weedkiller compound glyphosate, approving its use in European Union countries for ten more years.
Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup, the world’s most widely used herbicide. Over the years, a debate has developed about whether the chemical is safe to use on food crops, as well as its possible environmental impacts. Some studies point to a link between glyphosate and certain cancers.’
The revolving door of corruption and the merger of government and corporate power in the US, which Robert F. Kennedy Jr. defines as ‘corporate fascism’, is thriving in the EU.
Read; Mapped: The Deep Ties Between Big Ag and Europe’s Right-Wing Politicians – Clare Carlile, DeSmog, 18 October 2023;
‘A major investigation published earlier this month by DeSmog and Politico revealed the high volume of meetings held by six key European Union parliamentarians. It found the farming industry had an average of two meetings a week with those politicians since 2020, as the EU negotiated flagship reforms to protect nature and climate.
DeSmog has now gone deeper, mapping the extensive personal and professional ties between the group of six conservative MEPs and groups linked to the agriculture industry.
We chose to highlight the parliamentarians’ connections to the most powerful EU actors that are hostile to plans to cut pesticides – a group that includes the biggest farming unions. In addition, we included agricultural groups to which MEPs had personal ties.
The nature of the links featured on the map range from direct contact in meetings, at socials and on hikes, as well as membership of industry-linked organisations and committees.
The lobbying blitz captured on the map appears to have yielded results. In the three years since Farm to Fork – an ambitious plan to overhaul farming practices as part of the Green Deal – was first announced, lawmakers from the conservative EPP have consistently fought back against plans to transform agriculture.
Reforms include measures to halve pesticide use across the bloc – proposals that have alarmed an industry worth €12 billion in Europe alone each year. Scientists say the raft of green measures, aimed at tackling spiralling climate breakdown and biodiversity collapse, are crucial for the future of Europe’s food supply.
A formidable lobbying force in Brussels, the industry has a range of ways to reach decision-makers via sponsorship and support for influential networks, discussion forums and think tanks. Since plans to halve pesticide use were first announced in 2020, records show it has spent €35 million on EU lobbying.
The four largest pesticide companies – Bayer, Syngenta, BASF and Corteva – along with their powerful trade association CropLife Europe, held a total of 29 official meetings with the six selected MEPs since 2020.’
Like the tobacco industry in the 50s, Bayer lied, bought junk science and smeared any scientists whose research revealed the human health risks of GM crops and the glyphosate herbicide that is sprayed onto them.
Read from the US; Bayer ordered to pay $175 million in latest Roundup cancer trial Reuters, 27 October 2023;
‘A Philadelphia jury on Friday found Bayer liable in a case brought by a retired restaurant owner who claimed his cancer was due to exposure to the company’s Roundup weed killer, and ordered Bayer to pay him $175 million in damages, the man’s lawyers said.
The verdict, for retired restaurant owner Ernest Caranci, includes $25 million in compensatory damages and $150 million in punitive damages.
A Bayer spokesperson said in a statement that the company disagreed with the verdict and was “confident we can get this unfounded verdict overturned and the excessive damage awards reduced through our appeal.”
Caranci’s lawyers said in a joint statement that they were pleased with the verdict.
Caranci had alleged that he developed non-Hodgkins lymphoma as a result of using Roundup in his garden for years.
Last week, the company was hit with a $1.25 million verdict in a separate Roundup trial. Before that, it had won nine consecutive trials over similar claims.
Roundup-related lawsuits have dogged Bayer since it acquired the brand as part of its $63 billion purchase of agricultural seeds and pesticides maker Monsanto Co in 2018.
The German conglomerate has said that decades of studies have shown Roundup and its active ingredient, glyphosate, are safe for human use.
Bayer settled most Roundup claims against it in 2020 for up to $10.9 billion, but still faces close to 40,000 Roundup-related cases.
It has gone to the U.S. Supreme Court unsuccessfully, in an effort to challenge plaintiffs’ ability to sue under state law.’
We owe a huge debt to Michael Antoniou, a professor of Molecular Genetics who supported Arpad Pusztai and Gilles-Eric Seralini when they were hounded, smeared and attacked because their research exposed the health risks of glyphosate (the main ingredient of the Bayer herbicide Roundup) and GMO crops. Pusztai found GMOs to cause tumours in rats fed on Roundup-tolerant genetically modified maize. Seralini suddenly became dangerously ill with a mystery illness minutes after testifying against glyphosate in a House of Commons committee room, and Arpad Pusztai was sacked in 1998 from his research post after revealing his findings in a TV interview.
Read; ‘Flawed’ and ‘anti-democratic’: UK Food and farming experts lodge formal complaint against FSA’s precision bred organisms consultation; Jim Manson, Natural News Desk, 22 November 2023;
‘A group of experts representing business, farming, certification, academia, science and civil society have lodged a formal complaint against the UK’s Food Standards Agency (FSA), raising serious concerns about its public consultation process on genetically modified precision bred organisms (PBOs and is another word used for GMO seeds).
They say the consultation breaches Cabinet Office Consultation Principles and are calling on the Agency to withdraw it until multiple issues can be resolved
The complaint, submitted to the Agency and copied to the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to whom it reports, alleges multiple breaches of Cabinet Office Consultation Principles and serious misrepresentation of the facts, which call into question the integrity of the Agency and its stated goal of transparency and truthfulness.’
‘The deregulation of genetically modified PBOs and the removal of labelling and end-to-end traceability in the food system, the complainants argue, will have a domino effect throughout the food system affecting non-GM, organic, artisanal and natural food producers who wish to avoid PBOs, “removing consumers’ right to choose whether or not to purchase and consume these foods as well as farmers’ right to choose whether to feed them to their livestock”.’
‘One of the signatories, Michael Antoniou, professor of Molecular Genetics and Toxicology at King’s College London, said: “Not only is this consultation misleading and anti-democratic, but it also misrepresents the science underpinning gene editing. Gene editing is prone to causing a wide range of unintended DNA damage, altering patterns of gene function and consequently the biochemistry of the organism, which could lead to the production of unexpected toxins and allergens. Citizens should be protected against these risks.”’
GMOs are just a way for big business to muscle into farming by creating and selling a product that there is no need for. In the 1990s, GM was marketed with promises of increased yields, increased resistance to drought and to pests, but all these promises have failed to deliver. The reality is that almost all GM crops are modified to resist the herbicide Roundup (Glyphosate) so that these crops can be sprayed with more of the herbicide than they would normally survive. Monsanto (now Bayer) wins twice, once with the GM seed that farmers have to buy every year instead of saving their own as they have done for generations, and Bayer wins again with the sale of Roundup, for which they are facing over 50,000 lawsuits in the US alone, for cancers and other illnesses.
Watch; Jeffrey Smith is Sounding the Alarm on GMO 2.0 Carol Grievé, Food Integrity Now, 6 November 2023;
Summary: “Jeffrey Smith, Founder and Executive Director of Institute for Responsible Technology, is the most knowledgeable person on the planet about GMOs. GMO 2.0, gene editing or sometimes known as CRISPR technology is the newest form of GMOs and unfortunately, the most troubling one. At one point, Jeffrey used the word “catastrophic.”
“I was a chronic do gooder and figuring out ways to help the world and when I heard a lecture from a genetic engineer blowing the whistle on this technology saying that it could affect everyone who eats and all living beings because it’s going to be in the food supply that year,1996, and that Monsanto could not determine that the foods were safe, no one could because the technology was prone to unpredictable side effects that no one could guard against completely.
“And that the technique was going to create organisms that were not recallable from the environment so it would be with civilization for future generations.GMO 2.0 now presents opportunities for them to introduce all sorts of GMOs beyond what we’ve been able to limit it to.
“Genetic engineering is where you artificially alter the DNA, you can put genes from other species into it, you can change the order of genes, you can delete, add, multiply, and these laboratory techniques create massive collateral damage, side effects, unpredictable outcomes.
“What I want to do is to take about 90 seconds and just name the different diseases that are rising in parallel with the increased use of Roundup on our food supply or the increased use of GMOs… so we have anxiety diabetes, deaths from Alzheimer’s, deaths from Parkinson’s, deaths from hypertension, autism in six-year-olds, insomnia, celiac disease, acute kidney injury, death from kidney failure, kidney and pelvic cancer, liver cancer, liver and B duct cancer, thyroid cancer, deaths from Lukemia, breast cancer, deaths from intestinal infection, deaths from disorders of lipoprotein, metabolism, peritonitis, hepatitis C, dementia, ADHD, schizophrenia, suicide by overdose, congenital birth defects, congenital heart defects, newborn metabolic disorders, newborn genital urinary disorders, skin disorders, newborns with lung conditions, newborns with eye disorders, immune related newborn blood disorders, anemia, lymph disorders and deaths due to stroke. All of those show a very tight correlation between the rise of either glyphosate sprayed on corn and soy, the percentage of corn and soy and that particular disease. Now we have 28 different conditions on top of those where people reported getting better from when they switched to non-GMO.'”
The European Commission, capitulating to teams of Big Ag lobbyists, paves the way for untested bio-tech to be included in organic standards.
Read; New Genetic Techniques: No Science no safety Organic Research Centre, 27 October 2023;
‘The European Commission’s proposal to exempt most ‘new’ genetically modified (GM) plants from regulation lacks scientific basis, scientists of the European Network of Scientists for Social and Environmental Responsibility (ENSSER) point out. The proposal will expose citizens and the environment to potentially unsafe food, feed and plants without informing the citizens. It amounts to a shameful attack on the Precautionary Principle (PP). New GM plants must remain regulated by the existing EU legislation, which has proven to serve its purpose well.
‘IFOAM Organics Europe, the voice for organic food and farming in Europe, is strongly against the changes concerning organic farming in the rapporteur’s draft report on New Genetic Techniques (NGTs), particularly the proposal to remove the ban of Category 1 NGTs in organic (NGT plants that could also occur naturally or be produced by conventional breeding techniques). Also cause for concern are that important seed labelling provisions are deleted, which would, they say, have been a starting point for transparency at the breeding level.
‘In June 2023, an overwhelming majority of the European organic movement re-affirmed that the organic production process should remain free of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). As the European Commission’s proposal reflects, the use of gene editing technologies is not aligned with the principles of organic agriculture. Using NGTs in food production can lead to unintended effects, has potential risks, and conflicts with the precautionary principle. Organic producers also want and must fulfil consumers’ expectations that no old or new GMOs are used in the organic production process.
‘Guaranteeing the freedom of choice and the right of organic operators to produce without NGTs can only be effective if it is accompanied by the legal and technical means. These must be embedded in the NGT regulation, rather than in the EU Organic Regulation (2018/848) as some proponents of NGT deregulation argue. The organic movement is against reopening the EU Organic Regulation as this would open the door to undesired changes of other aspects of the long-negotiated regulation. On top of that, it would also prevent much-needed legal clarity and prevent establishing essential safeguards of GM-free production.’
Likewise, the UK government, always anxious to let food and farming be run by a few global corporations, is separating gene editing from gene modification, when in fact they are both manipulations of the plant’s DNA.
Read; Genetic Technologies in Food and Farming – A Manifesto for the Next Government GM Watch, 25 October 2023;
‘Gene editing is genetic engineering.
‘Our ask: Government must stop misleading its members, the media and the public about the nature of gene editing. Gene editing is genetic engineering and genetic engineering is a man- made, laboratory-created intervention in the farming and food system and the natural world.
‘There is no question that gene-edited ‘precision bred organisms’ (PBOs) are the product of genetic engineering. The first part of the Genetic Technology Act acknowledges this and yet the narrative used to ‘sell’ the Genetic Technology Act failed to acknowledge this and, therefore, misled parliamentarians, the media and the public.’
Wow, great news….. Germany is to become 30% organic by 2030. Sadly nothing so exciting is happening in the UK, where under 3% of farmers are organic and, along with most farmers, organic farmers are teetering on the verge of bankruptcy. If Germany’s transition is encouraged by their NetZero programme, I must stop trashing it. However, in the UK, with the government’s land sparing strategy, it looks like toxic farming will continue.
Read; Jim Manson’s Post, Editor, writer and media consultant at Natural Newsdesk, 17 November 2023;
‘Germany’s minister of food and agriculture, Cem Özdemir, yesterday launched the country’s Organic Strategy 2030, which formally commits Germany to achieving 30% organic agriculture by 2030.
‘The new strategy also places organic practices at the heart of a transformation of the whole of German agriculture, which it is undertaking to meet national climate, biodiversity and nutritional targets.
‘Speaking at the strategy’s launch in Berlin on 26 November, minister Özdemir said: “For years, more and more companies have been seizing the opportunity to prepare their businesses for the future with organic production. Organic demonstrably protects biodiversity, water and the climate and the organic standard is regularly monitored. The desired growth of organic farming additionally opens up opportunities for the whole of agriculture and the food industry. For me it is also about innovations. Numerous developments in the organic sector are now widely used, going beyond the organic sector. This also brings many positive effects for farmers who work conventionally’.
‘Germany’s ministry for food and agriculture (BMEL) says the new strategy creates an appropriate framework, and removes existing hurdles along the entire value chain, to enable the 30% organic target to be met within the timeframe set.’

After years of golden promises about how the Environmental Land Management Scheme (ELMS), the new subsidy regime for farmers, was going to transform farming, support farmers and protect nature, post-Brexit farmers are left with these hopes in ashes. Small farmers are going bankrupt, land is being grabbed by city money and used for trees and solar panels for carbon credits. On top of this, the Tory neocon dream of importing cheap, hormone-treated beef is enshrined in their recent trade treaty with Australia. Meanwhile, small growers and farmers are faced with inflated land prices and exploitation by supermarkets. Patrick Holden points to the disastrous result of the governments’ land sparing system of farming compared to land sharing.
Listen; New Defra Secretary, Interview with ffinlo Costain, Farm Gate, 17 November 2023;
Patrick Holden, CBE is a UK organic dairy farmer, campaigner for sustainable food and farming, and co-founder of U.K. The Sustainable Food Trust and U.S. Sustainable Food Alliance.
Patrick Holden; “I think the reason why Defra got it wrong is because they’ve concentrated on stewardship and habitat, not remembering that actually the whole farm is a habitat and you cannot produce healthy food unless you regard the farmers as an ecosystem. And instead of doing that, I think that Defra has accepted that the farming system as it is, is likely to remain roughly the same. Therefore they spent a lot of the money, maybe even up to two thirds of the (subsidy) money, focusing on the bits around the edge of the field and the habitats, which need to be, as in their view, protected. Rather than understanding that we need to bring about a systemic change in farming practice right across the board and organising and framing the future support that farmers need to get with that mindset. That hasn’t been present in Defra. It hasn’t been present with Theresa Coffee and who knows, but I doubt if it’ll be present with the new Secretary of State, because after all, I mean this sounds disparaging, but it’s not meant to be, ministers really move from post to post rather like corn flakes buyers to white goods in a supermarket. They don’t have any expertise when they come to the office. So really that means that the focus of attention has to be on the civil servants. Maybe the new minister will have a particular interest perhaps in health, but if he doesn’t understand what I’ve just tried to explain about the need to really engineer a fundamental shift in farming practice, then we’re just going to be tinkering around.”
“I doubt very much whether the new Secretary of State will have the time to make any difference whatsoever in the likely short period that he is in office. So, and I don’t hold anything against them, how could he know? He comes from Health, that’s interesting. So maybe, just maybe, he will realise that the consequence of intensive agricultural practices damage public health and that creates a financial case for investing more, not less, in the ELMS package.
“We are risking bankrupting our government with ever escalating NHS treatment costs and it’s very interesting that people now are starting to realise this. Chris van Tulleken has pointed out that ultra processed food is causing enormous public health damage… The patient, agriculture, is sick and if we restore the patient, agriculture, to health, the consequences will be reduced NHS treatment costs.”
We received this letter on 10 November from Jan Palmer who is coordinating the local campaign against plans to build a monstrous factory pig and chicken farm near Methwold. Please sign the petition by PETA at the link below;
Sign; Help Stop Pig and Chicken Mega-Farm Plans in Norfolk
Letter from Jan Palmer; Good Afternoon, I hope you are all well. We spoke back in June regarding the horrendous application by Cranswick to build one of the biggest factory farms in Europe, housing nearly a million chickens and 14,000 pigs at any given time in cramped conditions, here in west Norfolk.
Many amazing charities and organisations are now on board trying to help prevent this from going ahead and a lot of individuals have worked tirelessly to campaign against this. However, they are still throwing money at it and forging ahead.
With the help of an e-action letter which was created by Four Paws there are now thousands of electronic objections on the planning portal. PETA have also created a petition which has currently got over 27,000 signatures but has now stagnated around 3,000 short of their 30,0000 target. As such I wondered if it would be possible to share this on your social media, in order to give it another push to get the numbers up:
I have also attached a recent objection letter from The Animal Advocacy Project, as it is well rounded and highlights all of the main and concerning issues, just FYI.
I would really appreciate it if you can share this or do anything to help raise awareness.
Thank you so much!
Jan
I have copied below an extract from the objection submitted by the Animal Advocacy Project which deals with the appalling cruelty that the animals will have to endure, and with the routine antibiotics they will be given to keep them alive in the unhealthy and stressful conditions, leading to the rise of antibiotic-resistant diseases that pass from pigs to humans.
‘In such intensive systems, with 43,500 chickens and 1,000 pigs housed within each shed respectively, upholding high standards of animal welfare is simply not possible. When housed in these numbers, mutilations to the animals are often deemed necessary by farmers. This is because the intensive industrial agriculture causes the animals stress. For example, in a natural environment with a smaller flock size, hens can recognise others in their flock and know their own position within the hierarchy. However, when a flock size increases to an unnatural commercial scale with tens of thousands of birds, no hierarchy can be established, causing aggressive and displacement behaviours, such as feather pecking. Consequently, farmers consider it necessary to subject the chickens to mutilations, which can include beak trimming, a partial removal of a bird’s beak, to reduce feather pecking and cannibalism within the flock.
‘Similarly in pigs, farmers of intensive systems can resort to teeth clipping and tail docking, both extremely painful procedures performed with no anaesthetic. These mutilations are carried out to prevent pigs biting the tails of others in the group and causing injuries. Tail biting seldom takes place in more natural settings where stocking densities are lower and physical and psychological stimulation is plentiful. However, due to the overcrowded, stressful, and unstimulating nature of intensive pig farms, it is a frequently seen behaviour within factory farms.The stressful conditions in which the animals are kept also create susceptibility to disease. This creates a disease risk for the animals, for wildlife and the public. Intensive farms often use antibiotics prophylactically as part of their regular processes to prevent disease outbreak. This creates a risk of antimicrobial resistance which the World Health Organization considers one of the top ten global public health threats to humanity in the 21st century. The application is silent on the proposed use of antibiotics and how disease risk will be controlled.’
If South Norfolk Council is prepared to spend public money to close a pig factory due to its toxic stench and pollution of the local ecosystem, why would a neighbouring Council (see above) even consider an application for a new factory farm a few hundred metres from a village? Is it because the councillors are also trying to survive in a world of tax-dodging corporations?
The government should negotiate the price farmers need to produce contented pigs like on Helen Browning’s organic pig farm, so that no supermarket can undercut them. If pork becomes more expensive, eating less, but better quality/welfare pork will be healthier.
Read; Concern as pig farmer paid £1.5m to stop working so that 5,000 homes can be built nearby, Express, 25th Oct 2023
Summary; ‘Closing it down will mean a significant reduction in pollution, allowing the building of 5,000 new homes.’
‘The deal in Norfolk has now raised concern that farmers in other regions will be paid similar amounts while the amount of homegrown produce will be further reduced. New developments can not be approved in some areas unless they offset the environmental impact that could be caused. Norfolk’s solution was to pay farmers to stop rearing pigs.
‘The farmer will be paid through Norfolk Environmental Credits Ltd but hope to have the money returned by developers. The farm in question, Markshall Farm, rears up to 2,000 pigs every year which in turns produces nutrients to two nearby rivers. It is unclear what will happen to the pigs, but they were likely to be sent to abattoirs for their meat.
‘Owner James Daniels, 66, told the Mail people thought he was receiving an “obscene amount of money” for “quitting” his job but he insisted he was “doing everyone a favour” by helping the environment. He said: “It really makes me angry when people say I’m profiting from this. It’s compensation for giving everything up. I’m the second generation of my family on this farm after my father got it in 1950. My son wanted to take it over.”
‘He added it would become a haven for nature, saying: “The money… is only going to pay me for eight to ten years worth of putting pigs there. That was my living.”
‘But independent South Norfolk councillor Clayton Hudson said: “My concern is about openness and transparency, with this potential use of public money. And I’m not sure stopping a pig farmer from putting nutrients in the system only to replace that with more development solves the issue.”‘
If we can produce the product ourselves, we shouldn’t import it. Pork farmers will enjoy a year or two selling their pork to the US, until the US improves its pig welfare to supply the higher standards demanded by California, and then the UK farmers will once again suffer. To ensure food security, instead of all this transient global trade in food, all our pork should be supplied by UK high welfare farmers.
Read; Lucrative Californian market opens up to UK pork in the new year, Farming UK, 20th Nov 2023;
‘NSF has become one of the first UK certification bodies to offer California’s Proposition 12 (Prop 12) certification for UK pork.
This certification is crucial for British farmers who want to comply with the new Californian animal welfare standards that come into effect on 1 January 2024.
California consumes nearly 15% of all US pork, yet only produces 1%, so it relies heavily on imports from other states and internationally.’
Anyone want to eat shipworms to help reduce CO2? They can grow up to 2 metres so when the government manages to bankrupt all our farmers, they will make a great meal.

BBC summary; ‘The shipworm is a bi-valve mollusc – like an oyster or a mussel – which is known as a marine pest because it eats through sea-water submersed wood. Now, scientists at Cambridge and Plymouth Universities have developed a system for farming them, in a highly controlled environment using waste wood for feed. To make them a more appealing meal, they’re re-branding the shipworm as a Naked Clam!’
Brainwashed by EU agri giants, the German government is pushing fake meat.
Read: German Government to boost alternative proteins with 38m investment, Food Navigator, 20th November 2023;
Eight million Euros of the funding will focus on promoting protein directly for human consumption rather than animal feed.
However the majority of the funding, some €20m, will be devoted to phasing out animal husbandry, instead promoting the transition towards the production of cultivated, fermented and plant-based proteins.
The final €10 million will be dedicated to finding the best new and innovative methods for the production of these kinds of proteins.
Great to see MPs in Italy voting against lab meat with a 3:1 majority as the MPs have yet to be bought up by big Ag and can reflect Italians’ pride in traditional Italian food.
Read: Italy bans ‘lab grown meat’ to protect farming and food, Farmers Guardian, 21st November 2023;
‘Italian MP’s have voted to back a law banning the production, sale or import of cultivated meat in defence of the nation’s farmers and food heritage.
Despite the heated debate, parliament backed the bill by 159 votes to 53. Should companies breach the law, they will face a fine of up to €60,000 (£52,000). Agriculture Minister Francesco Lollobrigida, who had previously vowed to prevent ‘synthetic food’ from reaching dining tables in Italy, hailed the decision and said: “Italy is the world’s first country safe from the social and economic risks of synthetic food. “We are safeguarding our food, our system of nutrition, by maintaining the relationship between food, land and human labour that we have enjoyed for millennia.”
The Landworkers’ Alliance is demanding that the UK be more self-sufficient in fruit and veg. If, like me, you don’t trust the government to put people before corporate profit, simply buy your fruit and veg from the UK and ideally make sure it’s organic. The Riverford box scheme is a good source of a variety of organic food delivered to your door to avoid the temptation of buying it at the supermarket when you buy your other household needs.
‘Last week we wrote to the new Secretary of State for Environment, Farming and Rural Affairs, Steve Barclay, welcoming him into his new position, and urging him to publish a Horticulture Strategy for England as a matter of highest urgency. The letter was signed by the Soil Association, Organic Farmers and Growers, CSA Network, Organic Growers Alliance, Sustain, Growing Communities, Lantra, Better Food Traders and Regather.
As we made clear in our submission to the House of Lords Horticulture Committee enquiry, edible horticulture in the UK is at a crossroads, with producers scaling down production, or leaving the sector altogether, and our reliance on overseas fruit and veg imports becoming increasingly precarious as a result of global warming and poor harvests.
We’re therefore urging the Government to take an ambitious and cross-departmental approach to horticultural strategy, that prioritises boosting sustainable domestic production and training a new generation of UK horticultural growers and workers.
You can also read our response to the House of Lords recent Horticulture report here.’
Of course we need more fruit and veg to be grown in the UK but let’s ensure they are not the new hybridised varieties where the flavour and nutrition has been sacrificed at the altar of maximising quantities and long shelf-life, which is only convenient for corporations’ centralised system of long distance transport and storage. Capitalism looks at economics of scale but if the competition was fair, producers would have to internalise the cost to the NHS of poor human and ecological health. The winners would be small scale local farms supplying traditional varieties without chemical inputs and sold in local markets. Without the middlemen, farmers could earn a fair living without compromising quality.
Watch; Why Fruits Have Lost Their Vitamins ENDVR Documentary, 3 September 2023;
Summary; ‘Sixty years of producing standardised fruits and vegetables and creating industrial hybrids have had a dramatic impact on their nutritional content. In the past 50 years, vegetables have lost 27% of their vitamin C and nearly half of their iron.
Take the tomato. Through multiple hybridizations, scientists are constantly producing redder, smoother, firmer fruit. But in the process, it has lost a quarter of its calcium and more than half of its vitamins. The seeds that produce the fruits and vegetables we consume are now the property of a handful of multinationals, like Bayer, and Dow-Dupont, who own them. These multinationals have their seeds produced predominantly in India, where workers are paid just a handful of rupees while the company has a turnover of more than 2 billion euros. A globalised business where the seed sells for more than gold.
According to FAO, worldwide, 75% of the cultivated varieties have disappeared in the past 100 years. Loss of nutrients, and privatisation of life, reveal the industrialists’ great monopoly over our fruits and vegetables.’
Like our food system, the clothing trade is fundamentally destroying the ecosystem due to the capitalist system of undermining the quality of our food and fibres by turning away from nature and towards synthetic food and fibre. The clothing system has to return to more local production to ensure its qualities and quality is within the limits of our fragile planet’s bounty to feed and clothe us.
Listen; Meeting the demand for sustainable fashion Farm Gate, by ffinlo Costain, 3 November 2023;
“I’m pretty terrified by the state of the world, by pesticides, chemical pollution, synthetic dyes. And even though the EU is legislating to try and get rid of these, they’re still in our water supply. They’re everywhere. And they come from synthetic fabrics and dyes. And there’s such a threat to our bodies and all living beings. And we have six times the amount of clothing in the world than we need. If you look at the stats. So, the exponential increase in clothing production over the last 20 to 30 years has all come from synthetics and natural production of fabrics is pretty static.
There’s only so much land available for growing fibre. And the fashion industry needs to massively reduce its production outputs. And a way to do this is through decreasing the supply of fabrics, not increasing them.
We don’t need more clothing in the short term, but we do need to create the capacity to produce clothing within planetary boundaries. So for me, this means complete local production from the seed to the shirt, working within the biocapacity and limits of the land. We could all live with much less clothing and be absolutely fine. I think the thing is to develop the capacity and the resilience within our local systems, within our, where we live, within our regions, our countries and work with farmers and local people to develop the systems to do that and almost forget about the fashion industry itself because I think it’s, it just needs to reduce.”
Palestinian farmers in the West Bank are attacked and murdered in the ongoing violence by Israeli settlers, with the full support of the Israeli army and police.
Read; The ‘environmental Nakba’ Yasmin Dahnoun, The Ecologist, 2 November 2023;
‘Palestinian olive farmer Bilal Mohammad Saleh, aged 40, was shot dead close to the town of Al-Sawiya near Nablus in northern West Bank on Saturday, 28 October 2023.
Bilal’s death is the latest example of the injustice and erosion of land rights Palestinians have endured over decades of occupation. Bilal’s death is part of a wider tragedy unfolding for Palestinians. The Palestinian health ministry says that almost 120 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank in the last month. Four people aged 23 to 28 were killed during an early morning raid on the Jenin refugee camp on Monday, 30 October alone. In Gaza, the death toll is now around 8,300.
This year’s olive picking season comes after several months of drought. Farmers across the region start harvesting in their orchards after the first rain, in October and November.
Olives are a lifeline for between 80,000 and 100,000 Palestinian families in the occupied West Bank, but many farmers have begun harvesting in fear for their lives.
These olive trees are much more than a crop: they are symbolic of Palestinians’ long-standing rootedness in the land. Olive groves have often been passed down through families.
They are emblems of strength and resilience: they are extremely drought resistant and are able to withstand some of the harshest growing conditions on Earth. Many olive trees date back to centuries before the Israeli occupation.
Ever since the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza began in 1967, the olive season in Palestine has been endangered by settler violence.’
Films
This No Farming, No Food documentary is nearly fabulous as it is critical of the NetZero narrative that is destroying farmers’ livelihoods. They show how the anthropogenic climate change emergency narrative, that is promoted by the green movement, has provided a convenient smokescreen to grab the land and force us all to eat insects or fake meat.
However, it goes very wrong when it advocates that without fertiliser, pesticides and GMO crops, we will starve. We need to leave fossil fuel in the soil and do the transition to organic without losing a single farmer. Farmers need help to transfer to organic/free range etc., and smaller scale, with a ‘land sharing’ policy where all of the land is valued for biodiversity not just the margins. This film follows the government’s narrative of land ‘sparing’ that continues to have large scale intensive factory farming and chemical intensive monoculture with biodiversity on ‘spare’ land.
Far better therefore to watch the film Nitrogen 2000 which shows how scientists can be hijacked to say what their funder wants by omitting parts of the research. So this documentary questions the Dutch government’s tactic of using nitrogen overload as an excuse to forcibly close farms.
Watch; Nitrogen 2000 a 45-minute-long documentary on the Dutch Farmers’ struggle of 2019-2023.
Summary; ‘50% of the cattle farmers of Holland, that own 70% of the country, are facing a forced purchase of their lands. The government is claiming that the nitrogen the cows produce is precipitating onto “Nature 2000” areas of the country which causes nettles to grow too high and give too much shade to orchids and therefore their farmers need to be eliminated!
Is this really about lowering Nitrogen levels to help orchids over nettles? What other darker designs lie behind the Nitrogen policy of Holland? Surely if it were truly about Nitrogen other solutions could be found than disenfranchising the most efficient farmers on the planet. In Nitrogen 2000 we get to the bottom of the story.
Why are the Dutch and EU governments pushing a policy that will drive up food prices at a time when food shortages world wide are affecting us all. Why are they taking the most efficient farms off the market?
What does this mean for the future of our food supply? After decades of advocating “Food Security,” why is the Dutch government now advocating a policy that purposely makes Holland completely dependent on foreign food production?
Why are they attacking their own patrimony… the Dutch cattle farmer?’
This film uncovers the brutal reality of factory meat farming in the US, where huge meat monopolies control the market and deliberately bankrupt small farmers by selling below the cost of production. Cattle are confined in huge feedlots where not a blade of grass grows, and are dosed with antibiotics to make them grow faster.
As the film explains, we must take control of the meat industry away from corporations, not necessarily by going vegan, but by only buying meat from small farmers with cattle on chemical-free pastures.
Watch; Why Veganism isn’t the Solution to Climate Change
A brief look into the toll of animal agriculture, as well as whether a vegan diet is a feasible solution to the environmental destruction of meat production.

Watch; Our Food is Killing Us; by Our Changing Climate; 22 September 2023
Summary; ‘In this ‘Our Changing Climate’, climate change video essay, I examine the causes and destruction of our current industrialised food system. Specifically, I dive into the capitalist commodification of food, and how most of the industrialised farming that takes place in the imperial core doesn’t produce crops for our consumption. Instead, the majority of the “food” we grow goes toward animal feed and biofuels. In addition, the fertilisers, pesticides, and herbicides that our current industrialised farming system gobbles up, are derived from fossil fuels. Essentially, fossil fuel corporations are laundering their dirty fuels through the very chemicals farmers use to grow their crops. Our food system is broken. We’re in desperate need of a new agro-ecological revolution.’
The climate change carbon trading scam is just another casino market, this time to buy and sell ‘carbon credits’ whereby corporations buy the right to continue to pollute while at the same time complying with the phoney ‘Netzero’ target. A new global carbon market is already being used by traders to skim money from the system, for city money to buy up land for trees and solar panels, and for governments to use as an excuse to eliminate small farmers and instead promote lab meat, worms and insects and industrialised protein powders.
Watch; Why “Netzero” Emission Targets are a Scam, 13-minute-long documentary, 3 December 2021;
“In this ‘Our Changing Climate’, climate change video essay, I look at why net zero emissions targets are a scam. Specifically I look at how the promises of net zero at COP26 will not actually mitigate climate change quickly. Net zero emissions does not mean zero emissions. Countries and companies like BP can use the net zero emissions goals and targets to continue burning fossil fuels and emitting carbon dioxide, ultimately fueling the climate crisis, while they rely on the false promise of carbon capture and carbon sequestration techniques like tree planting or technologies that haven’t even been invented yet. Essentially, net zero emissions schemes allow for a worsening of the climate crisis because they are a procrastination technique for countries and corporations who do not want to reduce their emissions. Because of the vague definition of net zero, even fossil fuel companies like BP could call themselves ‘net zero’ yet still continue with business as usual.”

French politician and mathematician Cédric Villani reports on his visit to Julian Assange last week;
‘Yes, we should all be grateful to Assange. No journalist has exposed as many scandals as he has. War crimes, corruption in the world of finance or politics, industrial espionage, tapping the phones of heads of state (including three presidents of the French Republic)… The list of powerful people, conspirators and crooked entrepreneurs who have something against him is endless. But the gigantic smear campaigns waged by his enemies and the length and complexity of the proceedings have reduced his team of active supporters to a trickle. For my part, it’s only been three years since I joined them, proclaiming his unjust fate from the rooftops, including in Parliament, with François Ruffin and a few others – but if I have one regret, it’s that I didn’t open my eyes sooner.’
Also, SIGN UP HERE to the Don’t Extradite Assange case if you haven’t already, so that you will be notified about the looming court date to see if the UK courts will hear Julian Assange’s appeal against the US extradition which MUST NOT HAPPEN. Everyone must be ready to be outside The Royal Courts at 9AM of the court date as soon as it is announced.

Duplicitous Piers Morgan feigns neutrality and pretends to empathise with the Palestinian tragedy while badgering Palestinian spokespeople with the loaded, irrelevant and distorting question ‘what about October 7th?’ as if the 75-year Israeli terror and unrelenting Nakba against Palestine didn’t exist.

Read: US And UK Military Contractors Created Sweeping Plan For Global Censorship In 2018, CTIL Files #1, New Documents Show Michael Shellenberger; 28 Nov 2023;
Summary; ‘Whistleblower makes trove of new documents available to Public and Racket, showing the birth of the Censorship Industrial Complex in reaction to Brexit and Trump election in 2016’
‘A whistleblower has come forward with an explosive new trove of documents, rivalling or exceeding the Twitter Files and Facebook Files in scale and importance. They describe the activities of an “anti-disinformation” group called the Cyber Threat Intelligence League, or CTIL, that officially began as the volunteer project of data scientists and defence and intelligence veterans but whose tactics over time appear to have been absorbed into multiple official projects, including those of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
The CTI League documents offer the missing link answers to key questions not addressed in the Twitter Files and Facebook Files. Combined, they offer a comprehensive picture of the birth of the “anti-disinformation” sector, or what we have called the Censorship Industrial Complex.
The whistleblower’s documents describe everything from the genesis of modern digital censorship programs to the role of the military and intelligence agencies, partnerships with civil society organisations and commercial media, and the use of sock puppet accounts and other offensive techniques.
“Lock your shit down,” explains one document about creating “your spy disguise.”
Another explains that while such activities overseas are “typically” done by “the CIA and NSA and the Department of Defense,” censorship efforts “against Americans” have to be done using private partners because the government doesn’t have the “legal authority.”
The whistleblower alleges that a leader of CTI League, a “former” British intelligence analyst, was “in the room” at the Obama White House in 2017 when she received the instructions to create a counter-disinformation project to stop a “repeat of 2016.” (Brexit and Trump won the election!)’
Watch; We are LIED to ‘Forever war, fears of pandemic and net zero LUNACY’, Neil Oliver, GB News, 18 November 2023;
“What is our so-called western civilization supposed to be? It seems to me the only point of our civilization now is the creation and pursuit of money and that the best way to make money is to make war, to make war and care not a jot which side wins indeed to care not a jot whether any side wins as long as the consequence of every war is another war.
The first casualty of war is truth. we don’t seem to be remembering that either. Perhaps the other war we ought to be paying attention to is the information war, the war to determine who controls the creation and delivery of Information. We know we were lied to about the pandemic, the justifications for the official response, lockdown and all, mandated jabs, we know we were lied to about the war in Ukraine. We were told it was nothing to do with NATO expansion but now the head of NATO Jens Stoltenberg admits it was all about the expansion of NATO.
But still for the meantime, the least resolutely scrutinised by online media is the World Health Organization pandemic treaty and the proposed amendments thereof. I say the substance of the changes proposed for that treaty, by and for the WHO that is largely funded by and therefore mostly due to the bidding of one Bill Gates, should terrify us. Tedros Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the WHO, recently said that fears raised online about the treaty and its implications for the sovereignty of nation states are fake news, misinformation and conspiracy theory. He says that claims that national sovereignty is under threat, that the WHO will have power to impose lockdowns and mandates and the rest, are unfounded. I say those are lies.
Unelected, unaccountable Ghebreyesus asks that governments of all 190-odd countries contemplating the treaty amendments, amendments that will be adopted across the board unless governments actively opt out, (and there’s precious little sign of that), must instead take action to counter these false narratives in every way that matters. The countering of so-called false narratives means stopping your freedom of speech. Ghebreyesus says all that despite the draft of the new document released earlier this year which makes it plain that the WHO wants to remove from the treaty the concept of nonbinding, making the treaty binding for all, and to have nation states accept it. It will be up to the WHO to decide when anything poses a threat to world health and to act accordingly.
The draft describes the threat posed by an infodemic. There’s a new word to chill the blood. It refers to the overabundance of information, accurate or not. Read that again, accurate or not, implying that the WHO would expect governments to root out and remove even that information which is true if its presence in the public domain might lead individuals to behave in ways the WHO does not like for whatever reason. In this objective the WHO has the support of tech giants like Google standing ready with what they describe as inoculations against ‘wrongthink’, even if what you read or hear is true, even if what you say to others is true, if it results or may result in you or anyone else behaving in a way the WHO does not like, then that truth would have to be stifled.
The WHO desires and is working towards having, in the event of what they and they alone declare as a health emergency, even the potential to become a health emergency, control of where food is grown, where clothes are made, all of it in the name of pandemic prevention, avoidance of climate change, anything might be declared a pandemic risk empowering the WHO to redistribute resources.
Edits made to documents in the spring of this year would empower the WHO to instruct nation states to lock down their populations, to increase surveillance of those populations, to determine treatments, to mandate jobs, to cede to the WHO the control of the distribution of such products, to order companies to surrender to the WHO intellectual property and profits, to accept WHO demands about the redistribution of anything and everything.
Let’s remember above all that the WHO were disastrous in the face of the last pandemic. Who in the right mind would even contemplate giving them more influence next time around?
Covering all that this week, online media channel Redacted reminded us of the words of US president Herbert Hoover, warning that ‘every collectivist Revolution rides in on the Trojan Horse of emergency’. It was the tactic of Lenin, Hitler and Mussolini in the collectivist sweep over a dozen minor countries of Europe, it was the cry of men striving to get on horseback, and emergency became the justification of the subsequent steps. This technique of creating emergency is the greatest achievement that demagoguery attains.
We are in dreadful danger now, not just of the consequences of wars waged in our name, but of the loss even of our right to talk about such things. I see we are lied to about one thing after another, from the justification for war to the reality of our economy, from the suicide note that is commitment to NetZero to the threat posed to our right to spend our own money without the permission of the state.
Instead of the free trade of ideas and truth, all we are promised is ever more censorship. In The Great Taking, David Rogers Webb wrote there are monsters under the stairs eating people alive, but you don’t want to look under the stairs because you want to keep using the stairs. Here’s the thing, are we so beaten down that we will meekly accept more lies rather than ask questions? if we don’t demand truthful answers then I ask again, who are we?”
Watch; Who Are the Controligarchs? Author EXPOSES Bill Gates’ Plot to OWN YOUR FOOD; The Hill, 29 Nov 2023;
Summary; ‘Writer Seamus Bruner discusses his latest work, Controligarchs: Exposing the Billionaire Class, Their Secret Deals, and the Globalist Plot to Dominate Your Life.’
“Regulations prevent you from being able to go off grid, I mean even collecting rainwater in some places is a problem, you can’t have backyard chickens in some places and this is really what the whole theme of the book is, is the centralization of power, and to your point intellectual property plays a huge role. It’s really about the patents. Bill Gates did not invest in the fake meat companies like Beyond Meat, Impossible Foods, until they had secured the patents on protein change, which seems sort of Orwellian or dystopian in itself…Monsanto’s in the book with terminator seeds, patenting foods and seeds seems wrong and especially if you’re working to ban the generic equivalent which would be like cows.
So we kind of get into how patents grant an individual a 20-year long monopoly, and so with the oil companies like Standard Oil and the Rockefellers, they’ve taken this new green position, but it’s only after they secured investments into the so-called green companies. So, solar and wind is really like the patented technology, oil and gas is like the generic. All of the patents in a lot of ways have run out on the way to get traditional carbon sources of energy which is why it’s so cheap and abundant, but the new technologies are all patented. You can’t really have like a wildcatter, a scrappy young guy, go out and strike a claim in an oil well, in the nuclear power or wind Industries, there can be no Jed Clampetts, Beverly Hillbillies in the the solar and wind and nuclear Industries, they’re tightly regulated, they’re tightly controlled and they’re becoming tightly monopolised.”
“The biggest thing people need to do is take personal responsibility and vote with their dollars. Buying local, simple as that sounds, it’s actually harder than it seems because it can be more expensive. Not giving money to the monopolies as best as you can, maybe starting a backyard garden in terms of the food and with the chickens and all of that. But it’s really voting with your dollars.
In terms of regulations I think we need to stop funding these public private partnerships, it’s kind of like welfare for oligarchs. A lot of these supernational organisations, like the World Economic Forum, why do they need our tax dollars to fund the World Economic Forum or the World Health Organization? Bill Gates has basically funded the World Health Organization, so why do we need to fund it? So there’s a lot of taxpayer money that is going in the form of welfare to corporations that Bill Gates owns. TerraPower is his nuclear power company that gets tens of millions, if not over a hundred million in taxpayer assistance, and if it’s a profitable idea, if it’s a great idea, then they don’t need the taxpayers welfare.”
Read; The Great Reset Exposed: Schwab, Gates, and the Sinister WEF & WHO Plot to Depopulate the World using COVID Vaccines, Climate Change Lies & a One-World “Government” The Expose, 14 November 2023;
Summary; ‘In a world shrouded in suspicion and scepticism, where power seems concentrated in the hands of a privileged few and giant corporations, critical thinkers are raising questions about the intentions and actions of prominent entities such as the World Economic Forum (WEF) and renowned figure, Bill Gates.
Whispers of a grand conspiracy suggest that under the guise of “saving the planet,” a dark agenda to depopulate the world may be unfolding.’
‘At the centre of the controversy lies the WEF’s “Great Reset” initiative, a bold plan to reshape economies and societies post-pandemic. Advocates argue that it represents an opportunity to address pressing global challenges, while sceptics perceive it as a Trojan horse veiling a more sinister agenda.
The Great Reset’s core principles revolve around rethinking capitalism, improving global governance, and addressing environmental and social challenges. Proponents argue that it is a necessary response to the interconnected crises we face, such as climate change, income inequality, and healthcare disparities. They believe that by aligning economic systems with environmental sustainability and social equity, we can create a more resilient and just world.
However, sceptics correctly raise concerns about the perceived overreach of the Great Reset. They question the motives behind its proposals, particularly the potential erosion of individual freedoms and the concentration of power in the hands of a few global elites.
The calls for increased regulation and Government intervention will lead to a loss of personal liberties and economic autonomy.’

It’s hard to believe someone can go to jail in the US for making obvious jokes about the voting system and making fun of war-tyrants like Clinton.

TUCKER CARLSON; “If someone had told you even 10 years ago that you could be indicted by the federal government and go to prison for 10 years for making fun of Hillary Clinton on social media you would not have believed it. It’s a free country, we have free speech, but it turns out not only is that possible it is likely to become much more common because the actual war is over information. One of its first casualties is a man called Doug Mackey who during the 2016 election made fun of Hillary Clinton on Twitter and then a few years later found himself the subject of a federal raid and indictment and then a conviction. It’s a shocking story, it’s hard to believe it’s happening in this country but it is.”

This is such an old trick, you’d have thought it wouldn’t work any more. Create a threat, give it a brand name like ‘Digital Hate’, then create a phoney solution that is in reality a platform for more lies.
Read; The “UK Files”: A History of the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) Paul Holden, Racket News, 14 November 2023;
‘CCDH has grown into an organisation with worldwide influence, frequently quoted in relentless, uncompromising campaigns to have figures removed from the Internet. Its most famous work in the States likely involves the so-called “Disinformation Dozen,” including Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. The CCDH was sued by X, formerly Twitter, for “a series of unlawful acts” designed to impact its advertising by “falsely” claiming “it had statistical support showing the platform is overwhelmed with harmful content.” The Washington Post described this suit (emphasis ours):
“Our mission is to protect human rights and civil liberties online,” CCDH explains on its website. Those liberties, it says, are threatened because social media companies “erode basic rights and civil liberties by enabling the spread of online hate and disinformation.” It achieves this by conducting “innovative research, public campaigns and advocacy” aimed at influencing policy and legislation.
X, however, has claimed that CCDH is actually a threat to the very civil liberties it claims to protect. CCDH, in this version, is acting to “prevent the public’s access to free expression.” X has accused CCDH of using “flawed methodologies to advance incorrect, misleading narratives,” which it then uses to “censor viewpoints that CCDH disagrees with and reveal CCDH’s goal of leaving on the platforms only viewpoints that CCDH supports.”’

Dr. Stephen K. Karanja, former chairman of the Kenya Catholic Doctors Association, became suspicious of the program when he learned that involuntary sterilisation programs posing as tetanus programs had occurred in other parts of the world.’

Presenter; “Calling the global elite to account involves removing the diplomatic community provided by the Swiss government so they can be arrested according to Hussain Najdi (son of the co founder of the World Economic Forum). Who says the devil lives in Geneva”.
Hussain Najdi; “Geneva looks beautiful. It’s beautiful. It has a lake, it has this shadow. It’s very peaceful, but there is a dark side to it. Everything evil in the world related to demo side, unfortunately comes from Geneva.
You have WHO in Geneva, you have Gavi, then you have the WEF, the World Economic Forum, which my father was a co-founder and left Al Schwab out of disgust in the early eighties that has diplomatic immunity. I, as a Swiss citizen right here now, declare that the WEF is not eligible anymore for diplomatic immunity. I call in the Swiss authorities in security to arrest those people immediately.
Why the WEF, WHO, GARVI, Big Pharma, Big Tech, Bill Gates all advocated a global humanity injection by a bio weapon injecting nano lipids into 5.7 billion people and re Swiss are hosting them. That’s terrible. We cannot tolerate any entity that promotes poison to be injected into humanity.
But you have done it. I’m the victim. I’m dying from it. And my mother too – as a demo side. And they’ll be judged. It’ll be corrected in the name of humanity.
Presenter; The time has come to hold the elite to account for their crimes. And WEF insiders like Najdi are working with prosecutors to build a water tight case against key figures, including Schwab, Gates and Fauci for the upcoming Nuremberg 2.0 trials.”
Covid/Vaccines Scam and Pandemic
Please read and sign the petition against a vast global power-grab by the WHO with its dodgy connections to Big Pharma, Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates et al.
Read; Urgent Call to Action: Block the Pandemic Treaty NOW, Citizen GO, 23 November 2023;
‘The stakes have never been higher in our ongoing battle against the WHO Pandemic Treaty. The World Health Organization (WHO) has unveiled yet another draft of this alarming proposal, aimed at becoming the primary tool for managing global health crises. They are looking to become the global health authority before “the next pandemic strikes”, and it’s up to us to stop them.
This isn’t about health; it’s about who holds the reins of power in times of crisis.
As they inch closer and closer to finalising negotiations, we cannot afford to back down. You have stood right with us on this issue, from the very beginning, and have shown immense dedication and commitment in all our previous campaigns.
Now, we need your support once again as we enter the final straight.
The upcoming Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB) meeting set to take place this coming 4-6 December will uncover whether there is “sufficient” global consensus to ratify the Pandemic Accord across member states.
This could be a groundbreaking moment, that could possibly clear the ground for the Treaty to be ratified in time for the set deadline of May 2024.
The urgency to act is now, as the next Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB) meeting is just a week from now. Will you sign to oppose this totalitarian power grab? Add your voice by signing our petition today.’
Please download and send a letter to your MP to ask them to attend this important event on 4 December that features experts unafraid to speak truth to power. Also, please pass this message on. The public needs to be aware. Thank you.
When so many young healthy athletes are collapsing and dying in front of millions of viewers on the sports field, how come people continue to take the jab?
Read; 2,000 Athletes Had Fatal Heart Attacks Since Jab Rollout – Media Blackout People’s Voice, 2 July 2023;
‘Since early 2021, at least 1,884 cardiac arrests or other serious issues have been officially recorded among athletes. 1,310 of those athletes died suddenly. The unofficial number is likely much higher than that.
An ethical media would be highlighting these deaths on the front-pages, pulling out all the stops to investigate just what was going on. We live in a very different world now.
Good Sciencing has been maintaining a continuously growing list of the young, healthy athletes who suffered major heart-related emergencies in 2021, 2022, and the first half of 2023.
According to the publication, all of the athletes on the list share one common factor: They suffered sudden serious heart problems after receiving the toxic mRNA COVID jab.
Meanwhile, recent studies have shown that specific communities of people have not suffered any mysterious sudden deaths or heart attacks. America’s Amish citizens have not suffered any excess deaths from Covid or any increases in cardiac arrests.
The Amish people completely ignored CDC guidelines during the pandemic. Therefore, they didn’t vaccinate, wear masks, engage in lockdowns, or partake in any other restrictions. Researchers have not been able to find a single definitive case of an Amish person dying from Covid after analyzing ten of thousands of people.
They also noted that they also could not find a single unvaccinated Amish person with autism or several other conditions that affect the rest of America.’
It seems that governments in their scramble to increase pharma and PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) profits for their friends and funders, ignored what the European Medicines Agency was telling them.
Watch; MEP describes response from European Medicines Agency (EMA) to a letter asking about Dutch Government vaccine policy during Covid posted on X 21 November 2023;
THIS!!!
JUST THIS!!!?! ????♂️??♂️??♂️ https://t.co/poNzQx5nEp— Ian McDermott (@ianmcdermottLSO) November 21, 2023
Marcel de Graaff, MEP; “So the sports halls full of vaccine prickers were in conflict with the use of which the vaccines have been admitted by the EMA. And it gets worse. To assess the safety of the vaccine, it was essential for the EMA that side effects would be properly registered, and the EMA says ‘We expect many reports of side effects that occur during, during or shortly after the vaccination and that means complaints must be reported, especially in the first period immediately following vaccination.’
The government supported a policy in which these complaints were not reported in the 1st 14 days after vaccination because the vaccination would need 14 days to become effective. All complaints in that period were ascribed to the coronavirus, and that is not only fraudulent, but deliberately endangering people’s lives. And I remind you once again, we are still fighting with a gigantic so-called unexplained excessive mortality. The government knew that the vaccine would not protect against the spread of of the virus, but did not share this information with the citizens. On the contrary, it forced the vaccines onto our citizens with lies. It obscured the side effects and thus brought the health of everyone who had taken the vaccine into danger.
The vaccine campaigns should be stopped as soon as possible and it is simply not safe and it does not meet the requirements set by the EMA. The government and all political parties that supported this should all be held account for their lies and fraud.”
Though the event recording disappeared from the European Parliament records, luckily a screen recording was found to prove that some EU politicians are voicing their concerns about dishonest reporting on the side effects of the Covid vaccine.

Joachim Kuhs; “When misinformation is spread by the governments of our member states, doctors can’t give good advice and people can’t make a good choice whether they want to be vaccinated or not. One of the major considerations for people whether or not to take a vaccine is a possible risk and side effects. EMA (European Medicines Agency) mentioned in its letter to us, they expect, “reports of conditions occurring at, or soon after, vaccination.
This implies that data on adverse events or side effects within 14 days of vaccinations are of the utmost importance to assess the risks related to the vaccines. However, member state officials adopted the policy that, as it would take 10 to 14 days for the vaccine to produce spike proteins, adverse events within 14 days after vaccination were not to be registered as related to the vaccination. Statistically, they considered the person who got the vaccine as ‘not vaccinated within those first 14 days’.
What a nonsense. Government policies and also governmental media campaigns to promote covid vaccinations are leaving out the risks and side effects that might occur in those first 14 days. Most allergic reactions occur within 20 minutes to two hours after getting into contact with the allergen. Side effects of regular vaccines our children get normally occur within one to two days, but yet somehow they just invented this 14 days story to create this fake feeling of security and reducing the amounts of registered side effects. My impression is that they did it because they knew, from the reports of Pfizer and Moderna and so on, that many and severe side effects will come.
What are the governmental policies then, based on? How can doctors correctly advise their patients whether or not to take the vaccines? How can a citizen who is thinking about vaccinations assess for himself the safety of the vaccine? How can there be a truely informed choice and thus a valid consent, when this crucial information is withheld? And why did the EMA not intervene?”
Ron Johnson was a Trump ally who questioned the safety of the Covid vaccines and supported treatment with Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine. He raised a question in the Senate about why the FDA had withdrawn the emergency-use authorisation for Hydroxychloroquine, and was told they had no antiviral properties, although they were still authorised for malaria, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis.This chart shows he was right to doubt the safety of the vaccines.
Read; Senator Ron Johnson Presents the Most Censored Chart in Congressional History Vigilant News, 14 November 2023;
‘On January 25, 2022, Senator Ron Johnson (WI – R) held the world-famous “Second Opinion” panel with top experts in the medical field. During that hearing, he presented a chart comparing adverse events of different medical products, like ivermectin, Remdesivir, and the COVID-19 vaccines.
Drug Adverse Event Comparison (FDA and CDC Data)

Ivermectin – 4,265
HCQ (hydroxychloroquine) – 28,823

In June of this year, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. explained to Joe Rogan why ivermectin “had to be destroyed.”
Ivermectin is often recognized – 2nd to penicillin – for having the greatest impact on human health. Its discovery won the Nobel Prize in 2015.
But its existence threatened a $200 billion vaccine enterprise.
“The Federal Emergency Use Authorization Statute says that you cannot issue an emergency use authorization to a vaccine if there is an existing medication that has been approved for any purpose that is demonstrated effective against the target illness,” explained Kennedy.
“So they had to destroy ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine and discredit it. And they had to tell everybody it’s not effective. Because if they had acknowledged that it’s effective in anybody, the whole $200 billion vaccine enterprise would have collapsed.”
Conclusion
The aggressive censorship of Senator Ron Johnson’s chart by social media platforms raises an important question: Is the primary intent to safeguard the interests of the public or to shield the pharmaceutical industry from scrutiny and debate? This act of suppression ignites a critical discussion on the balance of information, public health, and corporate influence on what topics are on and off-limits.
As Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has stated many times, “There has never been a time in history when the good guys have been the ones who are censoring people.” As the aftereffects of COVID-19 and the subsequent shots unfold, will this statement prove to be right again?’
Robert Kennedy Jr’s Children’s Health Defense was the first publication to warn of the dangers of the vaccines, and he was de-platformed on instructions from the White House. Now the statistics are coming in that validate what he was saying and shame the US government and corrupt agencies such as Faucci’s NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases).
Read; The Defender In-Depth; VAERS Intentionally Undercounting, Obscuring Vaccine Injury Data, Expert Says, by Michael Nevradakis, Children’s Health Defense, 22 November 2023;
‘This week’s edition of “The Defender In-Depth” featured an interview with Albert Benavides, an expert on the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) who took viewers on a deep dive into what’s really going on with how vaccine-related injuries and deaths are tallied.
Benavides, founder of VAERSAware.com, analysed numerous deficiencies in the VAERS system that he said contribute to the significant underreporting of deaths and serious adverse events.
Benavides, who has an extensive background in HMO claims auditing, data analytics, medical billing and revenue cycle management, also explained how two parallel VAERS systems operate — with only one of these systems available to the public. The public-facing system does not contain updates made to VAERS reports after the initial reports were filed.
Benavides shared a presentation highlighting key findings he’s identified by studying VAERS data, arguing that many of these discrepancies, in his opinion, are intentional and hide the true extent of vaccine-related deaths and adverse events. Benavides said he’s been able to identify over 30,000 reports related to the COVID-19 vaccines which “have been deleted,” including 1,100 death reports that have been deleted.’

Russia Ukraine war
Watch; Ukraine sends women, the elderly to the front;The Grayzone; 24 November, 2023;
Summary; ‘The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate cover the latest evidence of the collapse of Ukraine’s military, and the quiet acceptance in Washington that the proxy war is lost’.
Aaron Mate; “Their counter offensive was a complete bust; no one even talks about it anymore, because they actually lost more territory than they gained, at least according to the last time I checked the figures. There was recently that report in NBC news saying; ‘the Biden administration is now pressing Ukrainian officials on what they would accept in peace talks’. And of course they’re doing that because, as the article points out, the Biden administration is especially concerned about the fact that Ukraine is running out of forces. They don’t have any people left.
And that’s the whole point of this whole thing. It was never about defending Ukraine. It was about sacrificing as many Ukrainians as possible to bleed Russia. And now they’re running out of people to sacrifice. The average age of the Ukrainian military now is 43. I bet it’s actually higher. I think it’s actually probably too young for the average age. And so if you look at this article in NBC news about why Ukraine is being pressed for peace talks, this is what it says; ‘Biden administration officials are also worried that Ukraine is running out of forces while Russia has a seemingly endless supply’, US officials said. Ukraine is also struggling with recruiting and has recently seen public protests about some of President Zelensky open-ended conscription requirements, which includes dropping a series of eligibility requirements to get as many people in as possible.
And here’s more from the article. ‘President Biden has been intensely focused on Ukraine’s depleting military forces. Quote, “manpower is at the top of the administration’s concerns right now”. Unquote. One person said the US and its allies can provide Ukraine with weaponry. This person said, quote, “but if they don’t have competent forces to use, it doesn’t do a lot of good”. So that’s what it comes down to. They’re running out of cannon fodder, so that’s why finally we’re allowed to talk about peace talks with Russia, when what should have happened is, we should have had peace talks with Russia before the invasion, which the US rejected. And then after the Russian invasion, which the US blocked.”
Max Blumenthal; “Here’s Euromaidan PR, an official Ukrainian account boasting about how the number of women in the Ukrainian army is increasing. Well, I wonder why? Because there aren’t any men, we’re now seeing female casualties on the front line. There’s a video of a pregnant female soldier being captured by Russian soldiers. There are absurd ads in Ukrainian media recruiting women to the army. This is what happens when you’ve run out and yet you’re being pushed by your top patron to continue. As Eric Thomas said, ‘talking about Ukraine seems nostalgic now’. It’s so true. It’s sort of like how Putin ended Covid and now Hamas ended the Ukraine proxy war. Who’s gonna end this? Hopefully not another pandemic!”
This is evil!! And the UK (Rishi Sunak) is a lapdog to US power.
Read; How the United States and its NATO allies sabotaged peace between Russia and Ukraine Larry Johnson, 14 November 2023;
‘We now know that the United States played the primary role in sabotaging the March 29, 2022 tentative peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine thanks to the recently published article by Hajo Funke and Harald Kujat, HOW THE CHANCE WAS LOST FOR A PEACE SETTLEMENT OF THE UKRAINE WAR — AND THE WEST WANTED TO CONTINUE THE WAR INSTEAD. The United States persuaded its NATO allies that pursuing the war against Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy, offered a legitimate opportunity to destroy Russia. You want a definition of evil? This is it. Instead of helping end the war between Russia and Ukraine, the United States and its NATO puppets condemned hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers to death in a war with Russia they could not win.
In the course of strong arming Ukraine’s Zelensky into rejecting the peace agreement, the West prepared and launched a propaganda campaign that claimed that Ukrainian military forces defeated the Russian forces and compelled them to retreat. It was a lie. As you will read in the timeline below, Putin ordered the withdrawal of Russian forces starting on April 1, 2022 as a good faith gesture about Russia’s seriousness in complying with the 29 March Istanbul Agreement.
Chalk this up as one more massive war crime by the United States and NATO. They are accessories to murder. I have summarised the timeline presented in the Funke/Kujat article if you do not have time to read it in its entirety. I also am republishing their piece for your convenience. All of the death and destruction experienced in Ukraine and Russia could have been avoided. But the West was intent on dethroning Putin and carving up Russia. Once you understand this point I think you will appreciate that Putin and his Generals are no longer of a mind to give the West the benefit of the doubt. Destroying NATO’s designs on Ukraine is now their chief aim in my view.
Ukrainska Pravda reported on this in detail in two articles on May 5, 2022′;
‘No sooner had the Ukrainian negotiators and Abramovich/Medinsky agreed in broad terms on the structure of a possible future agreement after the Istanbul results than British Prime Minister Boris Johnson appeared in Kiev almost without warning.
Johnson brought two simple messages with him to Kiev. The first is that Putin is a war criminal; he should be pressured, not negotiated with. The second is that, even if Ukraine is willing to sign some agreements with Putin on guarantees, the collective West is not.’
This is a more realistic assessment of the bloody, western-backed fiasco in Ukraine than you will find in the western press. The war is justified by Biden and his puppets by the continuing lie that the war is winnable. There are echoes here of the Pentagon Papers revealed by Daniel Ellsberg that proved Johnson and Nixon lied about how the US was winning the war in Vietnam in the same way as Biden is lying now about Ukraine.
Read; This Ain’t No ‘Stalemate’: Ukrainian Frontline Breakdown, Revisited; Pepe Escobar, Strategic Culture Foundation, 14 Nov 2023;
‘Evidence keeps piling up, via leaked reports, of an across-the-board breakdown in the Ukrainian frontlines.
Facts on the ground point to the Russian Armed Forces (RAF) taking the initiative all along the SMO frontlines. This is recognized even by Polish and Estonian intel.
Main battles are being fought on the Avdeevka-Marinka line in the DPR and the Kupyansk-Svatovo line in the LPR.
RAF has enough manpower and weapons to keep the Ukrainians under a 24/7 state of despair. Objectives remain the same: to capture the whole of DPR and LPR within their administrative borders.
In parallel, the ever-unplugged Dmitri Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, has announced a massive increase in the production of weapons and military equipment. Medvedev constantly stresses that the capabilities of the Russian defence industry have reached an unprecedented level – and much faster than expected.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov, for his part, echoes what Foreign Minister Lavrov has been detailing for months now: Kiev – and its NATO handlers – better realise they cannot and won’t “win” in the battlefield.
Medvedev always relishes upping the ante: “The West must admit that not only Donbass and Crimea are not Ukraine, but also Odessa, Nikolaev, Kiev and practically everything else.”
A Perfect Storm of dwindling financing, weaponizing and Western “support” has darkened Kiev’s horizon, while serial Ukrainian disasters on the ground are so obvious they are even being picked up by Western mainstream media.
This ain’t no “stalemate”.
The previous analysis is only one among many that matches the breakdown of Ukrainian brigades across the frontlines – consisting “largely of units already mauled in their disastrous Hundred Days Offensive.”
The Hundred Days Offensive should rather be qualified as NATO’s Hundred Days Debacle.
The debacle is the key reason why the “Biden combo” administration is now desperately trying to impose a ceasefire: a face-saving gambit as crucial as throwing the sweaty sweatshirt in Kiev under a double-decker bus.’
The western strategy to defend Ukraine for ‘democracy’ is a shambles, an agony of death and destruction prolonged by Boris Johnson, dubbed the ‘killer clown’ by Irish MEP Clare Daly, scuppering the peace agreement last year.
Watch; West will choke on Putin’s terms for Ukraine; The Duran, 8 Nov 2023;
“We can see what’s going to happen. The Ukrainians come along, they start negotiations, the Russians said right we need all the four regions, you need to accept those as part of Russia. We also need very very strong protections indeed for Russian speakers in places like Kharkiv, Odessa, Mikoliev and all those places, conceivably because we don’t fully trust you. And Putin went to great lengths to discuss us how the the previous history of discussions, diplomacy, negotiations, the Minsk Agreement, all of that, how there is really no trust at the moment and with the nature of the political movements in Kiev, in Ukraine at the present time.
So conceivably, in fact most likely, he will insist upon the presence of Russian troops in some of these cities to protect Russian residents there. It’s impossible to see how any Ukrainian government could agree to that, in which case one can also see how the Russians will just press on. They’re already signalling what the future might be a future without a Ukrainian state, with Ukraine east of Galicia, east of the former Hapsburg provinces in the west reabsorbed into Russia, and with this small isolated landlocked state in the west around Lviv, trying to maintain its independence by itself.
‘It’s a disastrous outcome and Alexei Arestovtch, who is now Zelinski’s former spin doctor, who’s now become incredibly disillusioned. made an extraordinary comment, he said; “I basically lied to the Ukrainian people in the past about our prospects of a quick victory. I did that in order to build up morale so that we could survive. I am now destroying all of that, telling the truth about the fact that we are going to lose the war, so that we can survive. In other words for Ukraine this whole thing is now becoming existential.”

Sir,
Agriculture sector is like an ocean, where unlimited oppertunities and Trillions of USD business mixed with various politics and controlled by different Governments of Countries. There is no alternate for agriculture sector and Zero carbon and climate change directly effect only in agriculture.
100 years back, all our land and all food was organic, because there was no chemical fertiliser, pesticides, toxins and poisons in the world. Some greedy multi national mafia companies started chemical farming with political & money power, where they hired Governments and their watchdogs pliticians. Today some of the big MNCs are capable to buy some governments in our society.
We realised the danger of Carbon and all nations decided to finish carbon in future. But we never recognised the effects of chemical farming and the cost of human life, which is the cheapest elemet in the world. Now a human value is below the value of a mosquito, including you and me as per the valuations of above mafia gang.
If Governments can consider human life is valuable than animals, they can promote organic farming and can save future generations from diseases like covid and to create healthy & wealthy nations. If they can stop Petrol & diesal vehicals, they can stop chemical farming also. If they want to prevent FUTURE COVIDS, they must stop chemical farming.
At present, 99% of us consume chemical food contaminated with various chemicals, pesticides, poisons, toxins etc and our children are unhealthy to prevent diseases like covid. You can’t never identify a single FMCG & food company or restaurant provide safety and healthy food by them. But all are claims safety and quality food by compeling us to eat chemical food.
I am not interested to explain the dangerous climate in our society, at present, which all world knows and all are SLAVES under the above mafia. We can (Organic Harvest company) provide certified organic food without any special services from any Governments.
Our company will adopt villages and convert their chemical land into organic WITHOUT EXPENSES for fertiliser, pesticides, water, power and labour. Being the project is zero expenses, profit wll be 90% against sales and farmers will get 300% more income. This system (village adoption) will expand to other villages to districts to states with the help of farmers. We will not allow any governments to engage in our projects & works, because they are controlled by political parties, whom they have any sincere commitments with our society, other than themselves.
A detailed project report, masterplan for 20 years and future plans are available for your kind verification.
KINDLY REPLY US TO GET MORE DETAILS
Thanks, Sincerely
Organic Harvest team
Sir,
Very long explanation about agriculture and farmer. Finally shall I ask some questions ?? Who is the police and who is the thief in this story. Is there any FMCG & food companies with organic certificate in the world ?? Is there any company produce quality, healthey and safety food for our children, while all claims they supply quality food and compel us to eat chemical contaminated food with poison, toxins and high dose pesticides. Why MacDonald, Pepsico, coco cola, Uni liver and 100% food companies with high level celebraties cheating us with false statements and propaganda that they supply qualiti food ?? Why we are compelled to eat poison from out birth to death and unable to prevent diseases like covid.?? How many million children will die in next covid which is near our door steps.?? And can we STOP the covid by using our money power.??
ORGANIC FOOD IS FREE – Yes, we can produce certified organic food without expenses for fertiliser, water, workers, electricity, pesticides etc. Being project have zero expenses, profit shall 90% against sales and farmers will get 300% more income, we can convert millions of hecters land into organic to consume 100% organic food for our children. Governments can save billions of USD in teir annual budgets for subsidy, social welfare, medicine & hospital expenses. ALL ABOVE SHALL BE ACHEIVED BY PRIVATE FUNDING WITHOUT ANY GOVERNMENT & BANK FINANCE. Those who want to know about the project, kindly contact . cyemqatar@gmail.com
