This is quite the move to unsettle Net Zero.
Several other large investment management companies have either declined to join or have left the project.
In part, clients have objected to having no choice in the way their proxies are voted at board meetings. Blackrock & Vanguard manage appreciable fractions of the shares of most public companies. It’s usual to grant to the asset manager the power to use the voting rights that attach to the shares (“proxies”) because it’s assumed their interests and yours will coincide, being mostly financial.
Once you realize that this reasonable assumption isn’t true, yet Larry Fink can still destructively lean on management, it’s no wonder that sufficient clients are objecting and may even have withdrawn their funds entirely.
My pension & any personal invested funds used largely to be with Vanguard, because they offered to replicate the broadest market risk by proportional ownership of all floated companies.
In 2020 I exited Vanguard and went for self management.
Now I’m mostly out of the market entirely.
If your pension funds are managed via Blackrock or Vanguard, you can also withdraw your passive, possibly unknowing support for policies intended to dismantle the modern world.

"On Friday 13th September 2019, Magdalen Berns, aged 36 died of brain cancer. After she died she wanted her videos to remain accessible.....to inspire others.

This next part is much more interesting, its Magdalen’s own words...

'This channel is about, offering a counter narrative to media disinformation with blunt humour and honesty; lending a voice to other likeminded women, often misrepresented by self described feminists of the mainstream; giving ideological opponents an opportunity to reassess the assumptions of their arguments and simplifying complicated issues to make them accessible.

I am, a lesbian (not the political kind); a physics graduate (University of Edinburgh); a FLOSS accessibility hacker (the legal kind); an XX feminist (not the fun, kind); ex-amateur boxer (the competitive kind); a blogger; an activist; a cultural libertarian; a Londoner; a critic of religion, capitalism, identity politics, conservatism, neoliberalism and socially imposed gender norms.'"

"Congolese farmers barred from own land for tree planting project by French oil giant Total Energies"

"A lot of people have questions [about], ‘how involved is the government in monitoring and censoring the speech of ordinary people?’” Taibbi told Brand".

"Taibbi said the documents show Twitter was “clearly getting communications” from not only the FBI and the DHS, “but also a surprise was the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. I hadn’t heard that one before. That was a new one,” he added."

He added:

“The government is harvesting tons of information from these companies and then turning around and spitting it back to companies like Twitter in the form of requests for maybe bannings, maybe shadow bans, maybe deletions or labels and that sort of thing.”

Nice to know our Governments are engaging in the silence of those that pay their wages.

There is no democracy. It died a while back and didn't have a funeral.

From a friend in Australia.
It’s not a surprise to me, having been globally censored in a dozen ways myself.
What is surprising is that we’re getting to hear about it. I suspect this kind of bad behavior has been routine for some considerable time.

The Twitter Files are well worth reading.
The fact that govt/media are not covering (at all) is more reason to pay attention. Given that google search and other search engines mostly show negative content about the twitter files, the content is even more alluring…. especially for people (like me) who no longer read the legacy media.

File #1: The first files (dozens of them) really exposed what a shady piece of work Hunter Biden is. Most people knew this already. The evidence is so strong that House Minority leader Kevin McCarthy has  vowed to subpoena 51 former intelligence officials who  called Hunter Biden expose (in ‘The Post') Russian disinformation. 

File #2: Exposed how Twitter used several tools to lower the visibility of thousands of accounts. These files also show the 98% to 2% Democrat leaning in Twitter staffs political donations, the shadow-banning of pro-Republican content leading into 2020 election…. and, if that isn’t enough, direct emails from Democrats requesting the removal of any content on twitter they did not like.  Read yourself...https://lnkd.in/g7CAkW4Z

Note: After File #1, Elon Musk had the task of removing the FBI’s former attorney, who was hired by previous twitter management and was the one vetting files to be given to journalists for these releases…

Files #3, 4, 5: These talk about how Trump was removed from Twitter, not for incitement but because Twitter staff wanted him gone. Many world leaders, actively encouraging incitement in their own countries were not removed. Files 3, 4, & 5 also start to talk about the mass censorship of dissenting medical experts and critics of lockdowns, masks and injection mandates. 

File # 6: We are all waiting for the drop since Elon Musk has said ‘prosecute Fauci’ and those files illustrating the level of censorship against dissenting doctors, scientists, virologists
and epidemiologists is going to break the internet. 

Author of the Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton: "Files show Twitter activist employees, without basis, suppressed and censored the President of the United States, in the days before the 2020 election. This is damning evidence of election interference."

Senator Ron Johnson: "It wasn’t just Twitter that sabotaged the disclosure of Hunter Biden’s corruption. It was Democrats in Congress. It was FBI leadership. It was members of the intelligence community. There is a much larger story here than just the Twitter files."

Rob Schneider: "No matter what side of the political spectrum you lean, the insidious cooperation of Twitter and Government should alarm you. Given that Google & Facebook files will never be released, the open window into state censorship at every level of Big Tech is THEE threat to Freedom."

Larry Elder: "I assure you whatever Twitter was doing, pre- Elon Musk is currently being done on steroids at youtube, google, meta and instagram."

From a US friend who’s a market watcher:

‘I've been asked if I would provide a list of references that I relied upon when writing my vaccine harms speech, I've now added one to my website.

This is the same list that was sent to journalists and so-called 'fact checking' websites’.

Breaking 🇬🇧

President of the international society for vascular surgey, Sherif Sultan, now raises concerns about covid vaccines in relation to cardiovascular problems.

We are on the precipice people and the dam is about to break. As more speak out it means that any medical professional not wishing to be thought of as corrupt and/or cowardly, will have no choice but to also speak out.

Its organic disclosure now, and is likely to have been made possible only because of Andrew Brigden going on the Parliamentary record.

🚨 Ex-J&J Scientist Says New Bivalent Booster Can Have Cells Produce Four Types of Spike Proteins

"Any given cell could receive two kinds of mRNA's at one time and they could produce [spike protein] legs of each kind...so you can actually get four kinds of [spike proteins] produced. That means there are four different kinds of spike proteins that are produced so to call this a bivalent vaccine is incorrect."

Dec 1, 2022: "Mark Carney Appointed Chair of the Group of Thirty"

What Is the Group of 30 (G-30)?

"The G-30 claims its mission is to deepen understanding of international economic and financial issues and explore the international repercussions of decisions taken in the public and private sectors." It sets out to achieve this by meeting twice yearly in Washington, D.C. Topics that often come up include foreign exchange, capital markets, central banks, and macroeconomic issues, such as global production and labor.

The events hosted by the G-30 are invitation-only, meaning that regular members of the public are not able to attend them...

History of the Group of 30 (G-30)

The G-30 was founded in 1978 by Geoffrey Bell under the directive and initial funding from the Rockefeller Foundation. Before the existence of the G-30, similar aims in understanding economic issues and crises were sought by an organization called the Bellagio Group.

The Bellagio Group, formed by Austrian economist Fritz Machlup, first met in the early 1960s to address international currency issues and the balance of payments (BOP) crisis facing the United States.

The G-30's first chair was Johannes Witteveen, the former managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

As of 2021, the current chair of the G-30 is Jacob Frenkel, former governor of the Bank of Israel and former chairman of Chase International."
