Thank God Ritalin wasn't around when my young apprentice had his problems - but this is an extremely pernicious drug.

This was in the Daily Mail, I think this was at the beginning of the week, and here we have a situation again where the media are telling us what's going on. Look at the headline here, the sub-headline: " Thousands of hyperactive children are being given Ritalin (which can stunt growth) or even schizophrenic drugs. Are they victims of greedy drug firms and doctors too quick to diagnose a condition many say doesn't exist." In the US right now, and this is actually quoted in this article . . . 10% of all school-aged children are prescribed Ritalin - and it's increasing in the UK. From this article again, "Perhaps most disturbing is the suggestion that ADHD is nothing more than the invention of pharmaceutical companies who have used clinical trials to create a disease that can be treated with their drugs. Last year, the NHS spent Ł28 million on Ritalin alone."

Now, Ritalin is a stimulant. I mean, basically, it's likened to Cocaine. I mean, we'd be mortified if any parent gave their kids Cocaine - but this is effectively what we're doing. In fact, doctors don't understand how Ritalin works, because it's a stimulant yet it has the opposite effect, it calms them down. And some of you may have seen a Panorama broadcast a few weeks ago where they were talking to families that were prescribed Ritalin and this mother of a hyperactive young girl said, "Well, yeah, it's nice to actually sort of see her calm and sitting at the table, but it's not my daughter." We're condemning these kids to a life of prescribed drugs. We are basically...it is becoming a zombie nation, and we're cutting away the possibility of any spiritual connect at any juncture in their life - which, of course, is by design.

For the adults, it's Prozac. . . . Oh, this is obviously for my benefit, THE DAILY SUPERPILL FOR MEN OVER 50." Well, apparently, this is the basis...this drug is the same basis as this experiment here. This was on the front page of The Independent, 2nd November 2007 - fortunately they tried it out in mice before they decided to offer it to the 50-year-old men: "It can run for hours at 20 metres a minute without getting tired; it lives longer, has more sex, eats more without gaining weight - could the science that created this be applied to humans?" Yeah, bring it on - phew!

They're telling us, it's in our face, "We are a nation addicted to pills" - not because we want to be addicted, but because the pharmaceutical industry needs us to be addicted; it's critical.

Big Pharma has a very, very simple philosophy:

"from the moment a lifeform is conceived until that lifeform deceases, it is a revenue stream - from Concep$ion to DŁath...

What is interesting in this book the 'Corporate Crime', the guy, John Braithwaite actually tries to understand the mentality, because it actually rocks him that the people he's talking to, the people he's interviewing all seem like nice family men individually . . . but collectively, these guys take on a completely different persona. There is not an ounce of humanity in their agenda. There's not an ounce of compassion. It is totally about profits! It's a bit like the American military trying to find ways to kill people remotely. If you can remove the face-to-face contact, it's a lot easier to get people to do things that they wouldn't do if they can actually look in the whites of the eyes of the individual.



So Codex. CODEX is a very, very complex structure. I mean this is just sort of an introduction, but Codex consists of 27 different committies, looking at a whole bunch of different aspects associated with the entire food chain . . . but there's two particular committies that really impact on everything else and that is these two here: Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary uses, which is hosted by Germany and Food Labelling, hosted by Canada. Now these two committies impact on all of the others put together and so when I talk about Codex, in most cases I'm talking about these two committies - because it's these two committies that are already setting the trend for where we're going:

- on moving away from the choice of Organic food and away from the choice of Complementary natural healthcare.

This statement, and you have to forgive me for using the quote - because this guy is a lawyer, so he has to use a hundred words when probably two would do - but this is I think a pretty good summary of the whole thing; he says: "Codex is the political equivalent of the current toxicology manuals because it endorses and promotes for international trade and consumption in the whole wide world everything from pesticides to irradiation, genetically-engineered foods and synthetic analogs for drugs and nutrients, in preference to bio-compatible natural substances."

Now what we're talking about here is the process of gradualism. So if somebody says to you, 'Oh we're still going to have access to organic food in 2010', they're probably right, but if somebody says, 'Oh we're still going to have organic food in 2020', right now I would say they're probably wrong - because this is the process of gradualism - and what the Codex Committies do, because they're under phenomenal pressure from the pharmaceutical companies and the likes of Monsanto, is that they do it through gradualism, so it's little by little, push a little, and then every now and again they'll give a little, so they take your eye off the ball. I mean, as in France recently, you know in France they said okay...and what was announced in the media is the number of acres dedicated to organic farming would increase - and that was what hit the media - what they didn't say was that the number of acres that was going to be handed over to GM crops was going to increase at three times the rate. You have to find what's not written.

Codex was actually started in 1962 and I am quite prepared to believe that the people who orginally dreamed up the concept were working on the side of benevolence. It was only after the likes of Monsanto and the likes of the pharmaceutical industry, who saw the potential for reaping the benefits of Codex, that they started to get in on board here. And, of course, what we're talking about here are organisations that basically have bottomless pockets . . . These guys have got teams of people working on strategies to maximise the opportunities brought about by the implementation of Codex Alimentarius. This is a real David and Golliath situation. Now I wouldn't be here tonight if I didn't think that David had a chance. I think David's got more than a chance but there's a lot of groundwork to do to really give David a chance.



Codex serves the economic interests of Big Pharma and what is really of concern is that the World Trade Organisation will implement Codex using Napoleonic Law . . .

Napoleonic Law hasn't existed in the UK since 1215 because in the UK, since Magna Carta, we've had Common Law. And what COMMON LAW IS is that unless something is specifically banned, it's okay. So unless something is specifically mentioned in the piece of legislation to outlaw it, it's okay. NAPOLEONIC LAW IS completely the opposite: unless something is specifically mentioned, it's banned. And the way the pharmaceutical companies work and the way the food companies work is what they're trying to do with the Codex committies is make the testing process so outrageous and outrageously expensive that the only people that can afford to get things on the 'approved list' will be the Monsantos and the pharmaceutical companies. Nobody else will be able to afford to go through the rigorous tests, which you have to go through, to get a product on to the approved list. I mean, this is outrageous; it's completely outrageous!

They nearly got away with this in the US in 1994 . . . people were hitting the street big time and they were always rallying at the Whole food stores. Well, right across the US, hundreds of thousands, probably millions in total, people hit the streets and they were protesting against the implementation of Codex Alimentarius. And it was kept out of the international media; in fact, it was kept out of the limited national US media, it was only reported on local basis. So the people in Texas who were protesting actually didn't realise the people in the other cities around the States were also protesting. But people were writing to their senators and eventually the senate realised that actually there was such a groundswell of opinion here, they needed to do something about it. So this legislation, the DSHEA legislation, which is the Health Education Act, was implemented in 1994 and this effectively put a ring-fence around the health food and complementary health and alternative therapy industries in the US. So what did the Codex commission do? Just go, damn, okay let's turn our attention to Europe. So for the last 13 years they've been trying to eat away at the protectionism of the individual countries within the European states. They've been working on the basis that none of the European countries talk to each other, which they're right about.

The British Government has washed its hands of this . . . The British Government has said "We'll just do whatever we're told to do by the EU", which is basically what has to happen anyway, because the EU issues two things: directives and regulation. If they issue a Regulation, basically that is law! If they issue a Directive, what they're saying is 'Look, okay, it doesn't have to be law right now. We're going to let you go through the charade of making it look like you're making the decision, but you have to actually implement the legislation.'

The privatisation that is going on - it's not this government making the decision to privatise the industries; the German government is not making the decision to privatise the Dutch railway system, or the French making the decision - it's EU Directive that's coming down the chain . . . So, the DSHEA legislation is a ring-fence around this for the US but as soon as the EU capitulates, the way the World Trade Organisation operates is that if they've got a templar in place in the EU, they can then say to every other part of the world, "this is what you now have to do and if you don't do it, we are going to start fining you."
