 [[:Behavioral Insights Team]] (BIT) (also unofficially known as ‘the Nudge Unit’) has now morphed into a ‘social purpose limited company’ with offices in London, Manchester, Paris, New York, Singapore, Sydney, Wellington and Toronto. They ran over 750 projects in 31 countries in 2019 alone, and have trained over 20,000 civil servants around the world on the dark arts of behavioural insights.

 Unlike many other groups that have a dozen or so members, [[:Pandata]] has an extensive team and professional organisational structure although the identities of some controversial members have been hidden from the public. Fortunately the [[:HARTleaks]] included a copy of Pandata's organisational structure, the members listed are involved in a large number of campaign groups and organisations across continents.
-Members have** seeded false narratives about death tolls and false positive PCRs, they have sought to undermine every measure to cut transmission from masks, asymptomatic transmission, lockdowns, testing,** they have made repeated claims the pandemic is over, predicted there would be no second wave, members have promoted conspiracy theories about Bill Gates, the WHO, lockdowns being a Chinese conspiracy theory, some have even questioned if viruses even exist.

 Even if some members do not believe in all the narratives their colleagues promote, they are well aware of their beliefs and are still willing to collaborate with conspiracy theorists and [[:anti-vaxxers]] to create the alternative science base of the sceptic movement, even though some of these organisations are engaging in the violent rhetoric of putting vaccinators and health officials on trial, Nuremberg 2.0 as they call it.

+Part III looks at [[:VAERS]] Dumpster dives were an anti-vax tactic pre- pandemic
+Independent polling during the summer had estimated 90% of parents supported having their child vaccinated, but since then hesitancy has increased. One of the main factors contributing to this are concerns about myocarditis. This had briefly been mentioned by a few members of the JCVI but it was an article in the Telegraph promoting a US pre-print that ramped up the fear of [[:myocarditis]] with what appeared to be alarming statistics.
+The Oxford Report Sunetra Gupta’s Herd Immunity
+March 2020: It’s the first day of lockdown in the UK and we wake up to headlines suggesting the pandemic is almost over. An Oxford University Report  appeared in the Financial Times making the bold claim 50% of people in the UK had already acquired substantial [[:herd immunity]] through the unrecognised spread of covid over more than two months. If true, this would vindicate the Government’s “unofficial herd immunity strategy – allowing controlled spread of infection,” there was no need for [[:lockdown]] measures or social distancing, due to lack of testing the virus had already passed unnoticed through enough of the population that we were already on the brink of herd immunity, the NHS couldn’t be overwhelmed and covid would burn itself out entirely in two or three months time.
+The Oxford Report was treated as a revelation, gaining traction across the media and catapulting the lead author Sunetra Gupta onto the international stage. Thousands of studies and reports have been produced throughout the pandemic, however what raises serious questions about the integrity of the UK media is which academic writings and authors make it to the headlines and which ones don’t get a mention. Rigorous peer reviewed studies from labs considered to be the gold standard for scientific methodology on the impacts of covid on the brain have barely been mentioned in the media, while non-peer reviewed pre-prints with clear cherry picking of data become major subjects of debate which go on to be widely quoted. Unfortunately for all the hope it brought, the Oxford report was of the latter type, except it didn’t  include any data.
+As the media were trumpeting the paper’s optimistic findings, swathes of the scientific community were raising concerns. Dr [[:Lewis Mackenzie]], a [[:Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council]] Discovery Fellow commented, “Why on earth has this been sent to the media via a third party PR company instead of the Oxford University press team? Seems very irresponsible to encourage reporting on this topic before the scientific community had a chance to comment and peer review it” ((https://web.archive.org/web/20220826091835/https://counterdisinformationproject.substack.com/p/creating-narratives-24-march-2020))

+A shadowy Army unit secretly spied on British citizens who criticised the Government’s Covid lockdown policies, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
+{{ ::military_spy_lockdown_critics_77_brigde.png?400|}}
+Military operatives in the UK’s ‘information warfare’ brigade were part of a sinister operation that targeted politicians and high-profile journalists who raised doubts about the official pandemic response.
+They compiled dossiers on public figures such as ex-Minister David Davis, who questioned the modelling behind alarming death toll predictions, as well as journalists such as Peter Hitchens and Toby Young. Their dissenting views were then reported back to No 10.
+Documents obtained by the civil liberties group Big Brother Watch, and shared exclusively with this newspaper, exposed the work of Government cells such as the Counter Disinformation Unit, based in the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, and the Rapid Response Unit in the Cabinet Office.
+But the most secretive is the MoD’s 77th Brigade, which deploys ‘non-lethal engagement and legitimate non-military levers as a means to adapt behaviours of adversaries’.
+According to a whistleblower who worked for the brigade during the lockdowns, the unit strayed far beyond its remit of targeting foreign powers. They said that British citizens’ social media accounts were scrutinised – a sinister activity that the Ministry of Defence, in public, repeatedly denied doing.
+Papers show the outfits were tasked with countering ‘disinformation’ and ‘harmful narratives... from purported experts’, with civil servants and artificial intelligence deployed to ‘scrape’ social media for keywords such as ‘ventilators’ that would have been of interest.
+Not misinformation, but ordinary, afraid people
+The information was then used to orchestrate Government responses to criticisms of policies such as the stay-at-home order, when police were given power to issue fines and break up gatherings. It also allowed Ministers to push social media platforms to remove posts and promote Government-approved lines.
+The Army whistleblower said: ‘It is quite obvious that our activities resulted in the monitoring of the UK population... monitoring the social media posts of ordinary, scared people. These posts did not contain information that was untrue or co-ordinated – it was simply fear.’
+Last night, former Cabinet Minister Mr Davis, a member of the Privy Council, said: ‘It’s outrageous that people questioning the Government’s policies were subject to covert surveillance’ – and questioned the waste of public money.

+Corporatist Media Finally Confirms British Army's 77th Brigade Was Spying On Lockdown Critics
+And Time Is Vindicating
+Substack Maajid Nawaz January 29, 2023
+The corporatist media has finally confirmed what we originally revealed on Joe Rogan’s show over a year ago, that the British government was using military-grade psychological operations against the British public in order to gaslight, and mentally and emotionally abuse us all into Covid compliance.
+Such was the abuse of power that it has since been confirmed that the military’s 77th Brigade had infiltrated social media and was controlling and thereby enforcing state narratives for undisputedly erroneous Covid mandates, against their own public.
