Pfizer secret Covid contracts - only UK has allowed secrecy

[SirGalahad]

So why is it we have allowed Pfizer to profiteer in a pandemic and allowed them to call the shots?

Rizvi said the UK needed to explain why it had agreed to secret arbitration proceedings. He said: “It’s the only high-income country we have seen that has agreed to this provision. It allows pharmaceutical companies to bypass domestic legal processes.

“The UK government has allowed the drug firms to call the shots. How did we end up in a situation where a handful of drug firms were able to exert so much control over the most powerful governments in the world? It points to a broken system.”

You gave them the power. You and your fellow jab junkies.

Reading more about the way this Government has managed this and why it needs to be in secrecy - it's what I would expect from third world dictatorships and corrupt countries.

Corruptistan it is.

 

[SirGalahad]

You gave them the power. You and your fellow jab junkies.

No I didn't vote them into power. I didn't vote for them to do deals in secret.

Democracy dies in darkness. I still don't see why it needs to be secret.

One can sympathise with those who posit that covid is a scheme devised to shovel public money into the hands of billionaire drug manufacturers and other similarly venal big businesses.

Who did you vote for?

Who did you vote for?

You missed the point. Maybe I should have worded it differently. You and millions like you empowered them.
Swallowing all their fake news and hysteria just like they wanted you to.
It could have been any government , the outcome is dependent on your compliance.

Again did you vote for this Government. Your non answer means you did.

Did you vote for Brexit?

The irony at being upset at people being duped by fake news and hysteria.

 

[Deleted member 292770]

Your non answer means you did.

my non answer means it’s not relevant. Labour would have done the same thing.

 

[Deleted member 292770]

Did you vote for Brexit?

Wrong thread. Stick to topic. Brexwot??

 

[SirGalahad]

So you did vote for them. It's fine.

Would have done the contracts in secret?

This is your conceit and shows your hypocrisy. You rail against the Government you voted in.
