British lawmakers say a new pandemic treaty will give the United Nations’ World Health Organization (WHO) the power to impose lockdowns on signatories, despite corporate media claims to the contrary.
The Associated Press has suggested that “while the treaty, if ratified, would be considered a legally-binding document, there [would be] effectively no legal consequences for signatories who fail to adhere to it or violate its terms”.
But British Members of Parliament warn the pandemic treaty powers can’t be so easily ignored, with signatories obliged to submit to “WHO’s recommendations in their international public health response” by, for example, closing down borders, imposing vaccine passports on citizens, and enforcing quarantine requirements on them.
A letter from UK lawmakers discusses the WHO’s “ambition” in transitioning “from an advisory organization to a controlling international authority” like the European Union. Esther McVey MP told the Telegraph the plans “represent a significant shift for the organization, from a member-led advisory body to a health authority with powers of compulsion.”
“This is particularly worrying when you consider the WHO’s poor track record on providing consistent, clear and scientifically sound advice for managing international disease outbreaks,” she added.
