This is the interview I did yesterday with David Scott @Albion_Rover for his “Necessarily So” podcast (the ‘cover photo’ used was taken by the BBC when I presented the Documentary “Climate Change by Numbers” in 2015).
In addition to the covid nonsense we spoke a lot about how left-wing political activists masquerading as academics/‘scientists’ have contributed to the increased authoritarian control over many aspects of our lives.
In the 3-minute clip below I answered David’s question about the agenda that was driving many academics’ work towards this authoritarian type control. I spoke about how my experience of presenting the BBC Documentary led me to understand the extent to which climate scientists ‘lie for the greater good’ and that the use of easily manipulated data and overly complex mathematical models was common to both climate change alarmism and covid alarmism.
Due to spending 39 years of my life in communist Poland (with several interludes in the West), I can smell leftist hypocrites from a mile away.
I totally agree with the comments in your post. There are too many people over consumed with self interests and protecting reputations that integrity, honesty and "doing the right thing" goes out of the window. To defend the NHS, bogus experts who are businessmen masquerade as clinical experts to protect reputations and deny justice while leaving all patients at risk. And they are paid out of the public purse to do so. Meet Dr Mike Drayton, cruise ship entertainer and bogus expert paid handsomely to act as the NHS spokesperson, lie about his expert credentials under oath and defend the NHS by attacking the accuser:
