State kidnap

UK Column News 8 may 2018

Towards the end of the programme, Brian Gerrish says: "Here`s the Guardian. Now many people sent this into us saying: `My Goodness, the Guardian has woken up.` And I`m going to say: `Well not quite.` The headline is: `The state has a terrible secret: it kidnaps our children...Let`s see where they go on this."

`Kidnap is not a crime typically associated with Britain. But it is happening, right now, and the local authorities involved don`t want you to know. High court judge Mr Justice Keehan, in a scathing judgment earlier this year at Nottingham family court, revealed that at least 16 children have been `wrongly and abusively` looked after by Herefordshire council, under something called a section 20 arrangement, for `wholly inappropriate` periods of time. For one boy, that was the first nine years of his life after he was born to his 14-year-old mother. For another boy it was eight years, from the age of eight to 16, despite his mother on several occasions withdrawing her consent. Shockingly, at the time of the judgment, 14 children were still being wrongfully looked after by Herefordshire on section 20 arrangements, despite the local authority knowing full well the judge`s displeasure.`

Brian Gerrish picks up on the statement that at least `16 children have been wrongly and abusively looked after by Herefordshire council, by saying `Well the abuse of children is a criminal offence. So the journalist is telling us that a council - thus people in the council - have abusively treated children. That`s a criminal offence Mike. But we`re not seeing this lady grip it because she doesn`t really understand that kidnap is actually a well established state in the country, and if we go on through,"

`Social workers must stop acting as if they are above the law. In reporting on family cases, I have observed the most extraordinary sense of entitlement and arrogance both in court hearings and in email communications when attempting to investigate and highlight poor and unlawful practice. There is no humility. There is instead a knee-jerk opposition to anyone presuming to want to hold a local authority publicly to account.  Given that family cases are heard in private, if the judge had not rejected the council`s plea to keep its identity secret, nobody would ever have known about the longstanding and outrageous failings of Herefordshire`s social work team. Why, just because the state is the `corporate parent`, should it usually get a free pass on scrutiny and accountability?"

Referring to the last sentence, Brian Gerrish says: "So this lady believes that the state is the `corporate parent`." 

 


"So that then brings in this which we`ve had many times. This is Aileen Campbell, Scottish National Party where she said: `We recognise parents also have a role in making decisions [about raising children.] So the key issue, totally missed by the Guardian, is that the state is simply saying parents are not needed any more. We are the guardian; we will take the children; we will run secret courts. We may abuse the children; that`s an offence for you, the parent; it`s not an offence for the local authority. And if we decide we`re going to have the child killed, as in the case of Alfie Evans, the corporate state parent is going to make that decision."

"So we would just say to Miss Tickle, the journalist that wrote that Guardian article, I think you need to wake up pretty quickly." 

 

"And since we`ve been on a theme, AV, this was AV3 in Bristol, back in 2009, where I gave the talk, talking about `child snatching by the state.` So the Guardian, beginning possibly to wake up, a mere nine years later. The only difference is that we told the truth: Children stolen and kidnapped from their parents by the state using lies, false evidence, perjury, threats, intimidation, false medical reports, including sectioning; fraud, corruption in public authorities, police, courts and high levels of government."

"So we think the Guardian has a long way to go. If you feel motivated enough to challenge, or inform or help this young lady journalist to understand what`s really going on, this is her twitter page." 

"And I was just fascinated as an aside that she retweeted the idea that Coronation Street was a good place to go for suicide advice."

"Good."

"Yes."

"Right. Not much to say there Brian."

End-of-life treatment

"Alfie, already weakened and subjected to violent treatment, was deprived of the antibiotics needed to treat his lung infection and then of food and oxygen for too many hours. Those who want to avoid taking a stand find shelter behind the mantra of a `too complicated case` whose boundaries would be too difficult to establish. But perhaps what is lacking is the courage to face the facts and say clearly that this is a case of blatant euthanasia? It is clear that if for the doctors considered Alfie's life was `futile`, then the effort and cost involved were not worth bearing and automatically the medical approach could only be to eliminate him. As Selicorni wrote: `If I consider Alfie's changing fortunes as worthless, a useless, meaningless human life, I can not help but think that the sooner I put an end to it, the better it is`."

"Sounds like fantasy? In 2012, controversy arose due to complaints filed by patients involved in the Liverpool Care Pathaway, the end-of-life treatment program then in force in Britain. A nurse from Alder Hey, Bernadette Loyd, exasperated by seeing similar cases, had written to the Minister of Health denouncing the ways in which children and babies die. `Dying of thirst is terrible, and it is inconceivable that children should die like that. Their parents stand at a crossroads and feel almost forced to choose this path because the doctors say their children have only a few days to live. But it is very difficult to predict death and I have also seen a few children come back to life after the LCP had been started and then stopped.` `I have also seen children die terribly of thirst because hydration is suspended until they die. I saw a 14-year-old boy with cancer die with his tongue stuck to his palate when the doctors refused to hydrate him. His death was experienced with anguish by him and us nurses. This is euthanasia being introduced through the front door `. The National Health System responded to Loyd without addressing the matter: `Care for the end of life must meet the highest professional criteria and we must know how to stand next to the child's parents during the decision-making process`."

The original article in Italian is: Ecco come hanno fatto morire Alfie
(Translation by Patricia Gooding Williams)

Where are you going Jeremy ?

The pathway to death

"Let`s come on to the subject of UK`s death pathway," says Brian Gerrish. "Some people are going to be a little bit upset by this as a title but in the background, over several years now, the UK Column has been receiving more and more information saying that something very serious...something dark is going on within the NHS. We`ve taken these reports very seriously. We`ve dealt with them very carefully but as time`s gone on it`s true to say that the evidence is building that there`s something extremely unpleasant going on."

"Now we`re going to come back to this case of young Alfie Evans because a great many people have contacted us and asked us just to pay attention to what`s happening in this particular case and so, as Mike set out yesterday, this little boy became ill and we`ve now got to the stage where reports are simply saying that: `No, he must be allowed to die,`even though medical facilities and doctors overseas, particularly in Italy, are saying: `We can take this child.` So what does the court do? It rules that the little boy is a British citizen; he`s now under the control of the court; and, therefore, he`s now going to be allowed to die under the control of the court."

"So it would seem at first glance that the actual policy being implemented by the court here is a care policy by a pathway to death. So let`s just have a look at the timeline. We`ve chosen the Daily Mail because they were kind enough to give a concise report here. So we can see first of all that in May 2016 Alfie is born apparently perfectly healthy but misses.... numerous milestones in his development in his first seven months and by December 2016 Alfie`s caught a chest infection and he`s having seizures. He`s taken to Alder Hey children`s hospital in Liverpool where he`s put on life support and then he remains there."

"Eventually the hospital is upset because the parents have smuggled in a German doctor, according to this report, in a bid to stop Alfie`s life support being switched off; and I can imagine the hospital getting pretty worried about that because this would mean, if you like, an independent medical opinion starting to have access to the child. So where does that take us? Well it takes us to February 20th when Mr Justine Hayden rules that doctors can stop providing treatment to Alfie and this is then backed by three court of appeal judges ruling that the doctors can stop treatment."

"Eventually by March 20th ... a panel of three justices headed by Supreme Court president Lady Hale decide the case is quote `Not worth arguing`. That`s an interesting expression Mike... and they refuse to give the couple permission to mount a further appeal. So here`s the justice system now driving a wedge between parents and their child. "

"So let`s follow it through because now we can come into the real meat of it. So April 11th the high court judge endorse an end of life care plan for the 23 month old boy. By April 20th the Supreme Court has rejected the latest legal bid.  Even the European Court of Human Rights refuses to intervene - I`ll just come back and say that that reinforces your comments about ... human rights instead of freedoms and God given inalienable rights. Here we`re being given rights by a European system which then takes them away."

"April 24th a special session in the High Court in Manchester rejects the application to overturn the decision; and, finally, April 25th appeal judges asked to overturn the April 24th decision but the parents` appeal is denied."

Mike Robinson responds: "It`s interesting that the mail doesn`t mention the intervention by the Pope who had .... I believe intervened to help get this child transported to Italy; but that has been rejected as well.by the state. At the heart of this Brian is the idea that... parents are not capable of making decisions about what`s in the best interest of the child. As I heard a lot of the mainstream coverage of this on the radio over the last couple of days, it`s all been about: `Well European countries don`t normally sort of concern themselves with the best interests of the child. It`s only in Britain we concern ourselves with the best interests of the child; and so, in our opinion, the best interests of the child is to allow the child to die."

Brian Gerrish: "Well yes, this is the theme and this is where we`re going to take people today. It`s a very serious theme; it`s very dark; but we need to discuss it." 

"Well let`s bring in at least a couple of the judges, so we can see who we`re dealing with. This is judge Hayden; he ruled on the 20th February decision that doctors can stop treatment of Alfie. And I picked out a Telegraph headline here: `Judge questions why taxpayers` money has been spent stopping British boy travelling to Syria for jihad.` This is a very controversial judge. He`s very big in promoting gay interests and some people are saying at the moment that this automatically means that he may be less than - what`s the word - `independent `to the Alfie case because they`ve chosen to have the support of Christian barristers. So whether there`s truth in that we don`t know but we can certainly say this is a very controversial judge. "

"And he`s also been working to produce documents to do with the law and how the law should be followed through. Maybe that`s appropriate for a judge but if I now bring in this lady - here she is - Lady Hale, it becomes very interesting because if you read her CV here it says: `Well this is the first academic lawyer, law reformer, that has actually come into the job of president of the Supreme Court. So what they`re saying is that this isn`t somebody who`s been through the law system full time. This is actually a person who`s been working in the background, helping to devise political policy."

"And I ask the question: `Is this what`s happening now, the implementation of that political policy in court with respect to powers of parents over their ... own children? So quite a few questions to be asked there and at this point let`s remind people of this lady, SNP Minister Aileen `also` Campbell. Where did she get that strange name from? Well she is on record as saying with respect to the draconian SNP Named Person scheme: `We recognise parents also have a role in making decisions [about raising children.] Now UK Column reported this several times, at the time she made this comment, and we said to people: `Do you realise what this means?` What this woman is saying is that the intention is, in Scotland at least, that the state will have the principle authority for bringing up a child. But don`t worry, as a parent you may also have a bit of a role."

"And now what are we seeing in this court case? Well, we`re seeing in this court case that the judges in court - remember no jury - this is simply judges in the court, saying: `Well you`re a parent but you can`t really make sensible decisions for your own child`s life, so we`re going to take that decision away from you`."

"Now people are creating quite a stir over the media in respect to this and I feel quite rightly. What is the result of that? Well Merseyside Police have issued a statement: This is the statement: `We`ve issued a statement this evening to make people aware that social media posts which are being posted in relation to Alder Hey and the Alfie Evans situation are being monitored and may be acted upon. Read the full statement here`. So this is a threat from Merseyside Police that if people are getting a bit emotional about what`s been happening about Alfie and that carries over, spills over on to social media, they are actually taking action."

"But this is the same police that refuse to intervene in deaths in NHS hospitals, or it`s very difficult to get them to intervene. I can say from a personal basis we were able to get Devon and Cornwall Police to intervene in the death of a lady in Derriford Hospital but, my goodness, it was quite a battle to do that and the police even told us at the time that they really had to make an appointment with the Chief Executive to get information although they were dealing with a death."

"So this is a comment from a person this morning and I think it was pretty astute: `Perhaps we should remember that Merseyside police lied to try and cover up the Hillsborough deaths.`"

"This is sinister stuff Mike. We`ve got parents desperately worried about what`s happened to their child in hospital; the police are not there in the background thinking that maybe a dirty deed has been done by the hospital; this is: `You get out of line on social media and Merseyside Police are going to be after you."

Death pathway for the elderly 

"So let`s look at the key points around the death pathway for elderly people in this country."

"Food and drink are now ruled as medical treatment. In fact that`s across all age groups, so would apply to Alfie as well. So when you see the fact he hasn`t been receiving the food or drink, that is actually considered part of medical treatment; and when you see the statement: `Doctors have stopped medical treatment`, that`s food and drink as well."

"Removing fluids leads to dehydration which leads to loss of cognitive function and dementia-like symptoms. That`s an important characteristic."

"Based on the `dementia` symptoms drugs can be administered which produce further mental confusion."

"Cocktails of drugs, including sedatives, are used to produce a comatose state ultimately leading to death."

"If family members complain about `treatment` they are barred from hospital wards and/or Office of Public Guardian/Court of Protection is used to take the relatives from their care. Wards are often locked..."

"Elderly people 80 and over can simply be diagnosed as dying from `old age`. So the moment you`re in hospital; you`re over 80; you die; somebody can fill in a form saying: `Well you died of old age.` No forensic toxicology; no investigation into what actually caused the death."

"NHS death certificates should be completed by two doctors [at £85 per signature] but often now we see just one doctor signing and often where that doctor has never seen the patient and this is called colloquially within the NHS...`ash for cash`."

"And coroners are fully integrated with local authorities, police and the NHS. So there`s no separation of powers."

"And if you say, why would they be doing this? The answer is that it`s deemed that there`s too many old useless eaters who are costing the NHS and government money. This is sinister stuff Mike."

Mike Robinson replies: "And so what seems to be being suggested here is that perhaps the same type of treatment is being applied to Alfie as well. Perhaps the point we should make, although the term is no longer used any more, of course, the original death pathway was called ... the Liverpool Care Pathway."

Brian Gerrish: "Well, I`m getting exactly where you are pointing. Let`s just show people that what we`re talking about is real. This is a BBC headline from a little while ago. `Norfolk and Norwich Hospital creates A&E for elderly patients`. So you go to hospital as an elderly person; you are going to be segregated through a different system and many people say they find this very sinister. `Elderly patients will be sent straight to a dedicated emergency department when they arrive at the hospital.` And if there`s a `Do not resuscitate [notice`] on their records I think we know what`s going to happen. `This means we`ve got to do something that no-one else has done before in the UK, to ensure our older patients are able to receive the best care most appropriate to their needs in a timely manner...` I don`t get a warm feeling from this language. And then the article is quick to point out there`s 571,245 people aged 90 and over living in the UK in 2016, and I think the implication is that they`re too expensive; they`re costing too much money."  

Death pathway for children
 
"So really Mike, your question was this: `Why would children be put on a death pathway? And this has been derived from information that`s been coming into the UK Column for some time:" 

"To destroy evidence of medical negligence - and I think this may apply in the Alfie case."

"To destroy evidence of vaccine damage - and I think this might apply in the Alfie case."

"To destroy evidence of pharmaceutical drug tests."

"Valuable body parts"

"And cash incentives."

 

"And If you think that`s just too strong, then here we are, an article setting out `Hospitals bribed to put patients on pathway to death`."

"So the evidence is hidden in plain sight and this is very very serious and sinister stuff.  Now this particular image on screen is from the twitter page of a Dr Jones... and he`s pointing out that there is a petition at the moment that children who have received at least diagnosis or treatment under the NHS without success should be allowed to go abroad. That`s already received well over 10,000 signatures... and basically there`s still silence from the UK government."

"If you want to understand this more have a look at the UK Column website and search for `Mechanics of Modern Murder` where there`s an interview on this very subject."

This section of the programme is completed with a reminder of the Dying for Good Health conference at Albert Hall, Nottingham on 12 May to `promote the good in the NHS and also to delve into other areas that authorities refuse to report`.


Note that the reputation of Alder Hey hospital has also been tarnished by the illegal collection of children`s organs, particularly that resulting from Professor van Velzen`s practices.

Use of mosquito devices should be prohibited in public spaces

 

"Last year, the UN Committee recommended that `the use in public spaces of acoustic devices used to disperse gatherings of young people`should be prohibited..."

"These devices are also known as ‘mosquito devices’. `Together’s 2016 State of Children’s Rights report found that only two local authorities in Scotland had records of mosquito devices being used in their areas. However, a survey of Members of Scottish Youth Parliament (MSYPs) suggested that devices were being used in areas where local authorities believed there were no devices installed. The Scottish Youth Parliament, among other organisations, have continued to campaign against the use of mosquito devices..."

"Although a local authority ban cannot stop the devices being used by independent businesses, it does mean that they will no longer be installed on council buildings such as schools or leisure centres."

No evidence for chemical attack

"The boy portrayed as a ‘victim’ in a video of the alleged chemical attack in Douma has told a Russian TV crew that he was asked to go to hospital, where people `grabbed` him and started `pouring water` over his head."

"Panic, fear, screaming adults and frightened children featured in the purported footage of the aftermath following the alleged chemical attack in the Eastern Ghouta city. The video has been circulated by mainstream media since April 7 after being posted by the so-called Douma Revolution group."

"The group is one of the organizations, along with the notorious rebel-linked White Helmets, that has claimed government troops were the culprits behind the reported chemical attack."
