"Action track 2" of the UN Food Systems Summit will be:
-Chaired by EAT's founder
-Have WHO as anchoring agency
-Have an "innovation pillar" led by the Good Food Institute (a lobby group for vegan lab-foods)

Now imagine the outcome of this triumvirate!🤔

Background here: https://t.co/1LL7ba3Quz
What is the GFI? An extremely well-funded lobby platform, representing producers of lab-generated foods that are meant to take over "outdated" animal foods.
On the advisory board we find some people like the founder of FAIRR (Jeremy Coller) and the Saudi Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed.
Here's some info on FAIRR, Alwaleed, and the $$$.

To give you an idea of the mindset: "dairy is the root of all environmental evil", says the guy with the big wallet.

This person is advising the GFI, which in turn will be leading the "innovation pillar" of the UN Food Systems Summit... !

The vegan-warrior Prince is also close to EAT, of which -remember- the founder is *chairing* the "sustainable diet" track of the same UN Food Systems Summit

Here's the happy bunch together: EAT's founder (middle with dog), the Prince (right), & a couple of GFI-linked folks at the UN headquarters in UN, discussing transition options to a veganized future.

This was in 2018.

There's more:
50by40= vegan & animal rights organizations + WRI (close ally of EAT), True Health Initiative (with EAT's Walter Willett as core member) & GFI!

Their aim? '50% reduction in global production & consumption of farmed animal products by 2040"

So what's the UN Food Systems Summit's track on Sustainable Diets going to bring us, with these people in charge? Wait & see. But it probably will involve a Great Food Transformation. A what? This: https://t.co/F8NzBgTiUf
For those able to read French, this excellent book by @GillesLuneau talks in detail about the GFI background ($$$, vegan ideology, transhumanism, ...):

More from Government

Let me take a stab at this after years of reporting on Marine One, HMX-1, Continuity of Government, etc. None of this is definitive, but it could help explain what folks are seeing:

1.) HMX-1, which flies the VH-3D and VH-60N 'White Top' helicopters used to move... 1/X


the President and VP around, those helos being called Marine One or Two when either is onboard, need to train. The urban landing zones, including WH and VP Residence, are not simple to get in and out of. So, crews need some currency training. They are not just tasked with... 2/X

moving POTUS and VP to get them around the region and to Andrews AFB for long-haul flights, they are essential to Continuity of Government operations. This means that if a threat were to emerge, they need to be ready to snatch POTUS and VP in minutes. This is partially... 3/X

why they have a full forward operating location at Naval Support Activity Anacostia, just 3 miles from the WH. As such, practice is important and considering the state of things, it is critical now more than in any recent memory. 4/X

2.) Considering what happened last week, including mobs of Trump supporters screaming in unison to hang the VP for doing what the constitution states, absolutely despicable in every way, security has been tightened just as it has been all over. Using the helicopters instead.. 5/X
Labour Grandees are listed in Sir Keir Starmer's colleague Jeffrey Epstein's ''Little Black Book''; Blair, Mandelson and Alastair Campbell. COINCIDENTLY, Keir Starmer and some of the same people have connections to ANOTHER of the worlds most prolific peadophiles. #StarmerOut


Starmer failed to bring charges against Jimmy Savile for paedophilia. The decision was made despite the Crown Prosecution Service receiving substantial evidence of his crimes from witnesses and victims several years before Savile died in 2011. #StarmerOut

With a past like hers, Margaret Hodge might show a bit more humility.
In the Eighties Hodge was aware of previous child sex abuse in the care homes for which she was responsible, and did nothing about it. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut

As leader of Islington Council, a post she held from 1982-92, Margaret Hodge was aware of previous, horrendous child sex abuse in the care homes for which she was responsible, and did nothing about it. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut #CSA

She was guilty of rather more than a casual failure of oversight. In an open letter to the BBC after it investigated a range of monstrous abuse (child prostitution, torture, alleged murders), Hodge libelled one of its victims as “seriously disturbed”. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut
This is a good piece on fissures within the GOP but I think it mischaracterizes the Trump presidency as “populist” & repeats a story about how conservatives & the GOP expelled the far-right in the mid-1960s that is actually far more complicated. /1

I don’t think the sharp opposition between “hard-edge populism” & “conservative orthodoxy” holds. Many of the Trump administration’s achievements were boilerplate conservatism. Its own website trumpets things like “massive deregulation,” tax cuts, etc. /2

The claim that Buckley and “key GOP politicians banded together to marginalize anti-Communist extremism and conspiracy-mongering” of the JBS has been widely repeated lately but the history is more complicated. /3


This tweet by @ThePlumLineGS citing a paper by @sam_rosenfeld and @daschloz on the "porous" boundary between conservatives, the GOP and the far-right is relevant in this context.


This is a separate point but I find it interesting that Gaetz, like Roy Moore did In his failed Senate campaign, disses McConnell. What are their actual policy differences? MM supported taking health care away from millions, a tax cut for the rich, conservative judges, etc. /5
