Imagine living in a world devoid of individual freedoms and basic human rights, where each person’s behaviour, speech and (even) thoughts are determined by the state. A world characterised by ubiquitous surveillance and ensuing censorship of any action or utterance that deviates from the regime’s version of the ‘greater good’, where martial law can be imposed at the whim of unelected bureaucrats under the pretence of keeping us all ‘safe’.

How HART was discredited on no basis
In summer 2021, the private messaging forum that HART used was illegally hacked and our private conversations downloaded. Within 24 hours we were contacted by a small company called Logically AI who told us they were going to publish the conversations. This small company had a contract with the government worth over a million pounds of taxpayer’s money.

The inversion of the ‘precautionary principle’
The precautionary principle (PP), in its original form, counselled those considering the introduction of an innovative idea – a new way of doing things – to pause and think carefully about the balance between potential benefits and potential harms of the novel intervention, with the emphasis on “potential”, since by their nature innovations will invariably carry a high risk of unknown and unknowable risks of harm. As such, the principle complemented the long-standing Hippocratic oath of our medical doctors to, ‘First do no harm’.

Dictating to a virus
The recent announcement by Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), declaring the covid pandemic over, highlights the absurdity of bureaucratic regimes dictating when we should be scared or not scared of an endemic virus.

In-fighting within the ‘freedom’ movement
We appear to be living through a blatant attack on what it means to be a sovereign human being. With our freedoms being eroded from all angles and the worrying shadow of a digital, programmable monetary system looming, we plebs must sharpen our focus.

Should the UK sign up to the proposed WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty?
Late last year HART was invited to be a co-signatory on an open letter to the relevant parliamentary scrutiny committees on the much vexed question of increasing WHO powers. The proposals are via a combination of changes to international health regulations, which require only a 51% majority of member states, and a wholescale change to the Treaty, which would require a two thirds majority.

The misplaced attacks on Bridgen’s speech to the UK Parliament
On 17 March 2023 Member of Parliament (MP) Andrew Bridgen made an important speech in the UK Parliament asking ministers to critically consider the risks as well as the benefits for the covid vaccines. Bridgen is one of the only MPs to highlight vaccine safety concerns and has been suspended from the Conservative Party on supposedly unconnected but obviously spurious grounds.

The role of the MHRA in regulating the advertising of medicines
The role of the MHRA in regulating the advertising of medicines – is the MHRA failing in yet another of its responsibilities?

MP speaks out but who is listening?
On the evening of 13 Dec 2022 Andrew Bridgen, the MP for NorthWest Leicestershire, gave a 17-minute speech on the floor of the House of Commons challenging the “safe and effective” mantra regarding the mRNA Covid vaccines and calling for their suspension.

Transmission Denied
How will we look back on 2022? For most but the most die-hard Zero Covid addicts (who had to wait until China punctured this illusion only a few weeks ago), victory was declared over Covid early in the piece when the government backed down from its obscene NHS injection mandate in February and ‘Plan B’ restrictions were also subsequently rescinded.

Open letter to HoC & HoL scrutiny committees
The WHO’s Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness and Response Treaty threatens our sovereignty and our democracy. HART has joined with The Thinking Coalition, Time for Recovery, Together Declaration, Not Our Future and Freedom Alliance to urge our parliamentary scrutiny committees to exercise due diligence.

Pandemic Inquiry off to a shaky start
The official UK Covid-19 Inquiry is yet to begin but the groups who will be included as core participants have been selected for the first two modules. There are severe biases evident but we have to ask how much it really matters.

A new All Party Parliamentary Group
Is Parliament finally acknowledging the vaccine-injured?
On Thursday 20th October, a new all party parliamentary group – APPG for covid-19 vaccine safety – met at Portcullis House, Westminster., with many vaccine injured people in attendance.

Jacinda and Justin finally relent – will Joe follow suit?
Last week’s bulletin contained an International round up on restrictions and vaccine advice. Lo and behold two days later, New Zealand’s Jacinda Ardern announced they were scrapping their ban on unvaccinated travellers, as from 13th September.

International round up on restrictions and vaccine advice
The rest of the world is waking up gradually to the nonsense of differentiating between vaccinated and unvaccinated tourists. This may be galling for anyone who chose to get vaccinated solely for travel, only to find they didn’t actually need it by the time the trip arrived. The website here gives regular updates, though it is always advisable to check with the official guidelines for an individual country.

The unintended consequences of COVID-19 vaccine policy
A recent article published in prestigious scientific journal BMJ global health has questioned the effectiveness of vaccination mandates during the Covid-19 pandemic and pointed out their unintended consequences.

Rewriting history on school closures
If we are to avoid the mistakes of the last two years the first step must be admitting that mistakes were made. This has begun but some people are finding it harder than others.

Terms of Reference for the Covid-19 Public Inquiry
The deadline to respond to the proposed terms of reference for the English Public Inquiry into covid ends on 7th April. There are number of major omissions from the current proposed terms of reference
