Is no one worried about Boris signing over sovereignty to the WHO?

Britain will join 194 other countries in giving up sovereignty to the WHO & Bill Gates. Our elected government will no longer determine how the country deals with diseases the WHO determine to be a pandemic. One global health government-no one voted for this.
The WHO are unelected-what if we disagree with their policies? We can't vote them out...there has been so little in the press about this but the implications are huge. The WHO have dubious form for their opinion of women, ie should we be allowed to drink alcohol if we are of child bearing age.
Who is advising the WHO? Have they bought into the SOGI narrative?

Yes, especially since the upper echelons of the WHO is also stuffed full of CCP stooges. But the sheeple on here will mock you for daring to question the status quo and questioning who is funding this/ pushing it through. The wall-to-wall war coverage is serving a deeply useful purpose in allowing the government to deflect attention away from this issue. One might even go so far as to wonder if the media is doing it deliberately...

Wow the responses on this thread. People are so naive. Is it really hard to believe that the pandemic has prompted a power grab from the WHO? These international syndicates are constantly trying to expand their reach. The default should always be to treat them with scepticism, especially as they are not democratic so there's no obvious lever to pull to hold them accountable.

I think this might be what OP is on about
https://twn.my/title2/health.info/2021/hi211204.htm#:~:text=Geneva%2C%203%20Dec%20%28Nithin%20Ramakrishnan%29%20%E2%80%94%20The%20United,paying%20any%20attention%20to%20the%20issue%20of%20equity.
That's one of the more reasonable articles about it. It's been seized on by the likes of David Icke though

Nah! We just want some idea of what it is, specifically, that OP is posting about.
If you don't want to sound like a Flat Earther then maybe don't post like one!
Now, having a clue what is being posted about, I can go and have a look, after saying Oh! You mean the WHO Pandemic Treaty! A global discussion aimed at contstructin a non binding, global apporach to pandemic prevention, preparation, management, collaboration etc.
And Bill Gates? Foundation or IT?
And OP is a tad late. The Special Session was mooted last December, had its first meeting in March, next one before August, feedback next year, including all sorts of public debates etc. All discussed here, in the Coronavirus topic I am guessing, at the end of last year.
So now I am off to see what has happened today to prompt the thread!!

I thought the world's leaders, including the UK, early last year called for an international treaty so that when this happens again, the response will be more transparent and fairer for all countries. It seems natural that it would have to be led by an independent body rather than one country. And as a it's medical matter, it makes sense it's the WHO. The WHO is full of people other than Ghebreyesus, all of whom have independent voices to express their opinions openly.
Not everything in the world is a conspiracy.
But maybe the op could link a proper article rather than a tweet from a nappy maker.

All I can find is frothing about the WHO taking over ther world and negating individual country's laws. Which isn't anything I have read. And this is the beginning of it. Which is what I assume has started this. Someone has noticed something in the wording and have highlighted it, someone else has mooted something odd, unintended could happen as an unintended consequence, and others have run with it, turned it into a conspiracy theory.
One to add to birds and their batteries box I think!

I don't think it's a conspiracy but I do think it is counter to democracy. People in authority should be accountable but also changeable. How do you hold our government to account when it can point to the WHO and shrug its shoulders? How do you change the WHO if it isn't elected?
happydappy2 · 11/05/2022 14:31
I suppose a lot depends on weather you think the WHO is neutral or in the pocket of China.....looking at how things evolved after the covid outbreak, I'm not sure they're completely neutral. I'd rather be governed by people we democratically vote for, than by unknown, unelected officials.

Not really. It comes down to whether or not you get sucked into the idea that a globally agreed convention led by the WHO equals a dictatorship.
And an NGO is not a dictatorship, even a global one!
And such a convention is not legally binding, even a global one!

But isn't the point that the pandemic engulfed the whole world and poorer countries became even more distrustful of wealthier, usually white, countries producing medication. None of us are safe until we're all safe.
Taking the control out of those countries' hands and putting it into the hands of a neutral organisation will hopefully improve the trust and therefore acceptance of medical advice. And that's why we need people from all nationalities to be at the top of these global organisations.

OP Is this from the same people that brought us 'you will own nothing and you will be happy'? Because if it is please can you explain how everyone in the world can own nothing as I just don't get it. Surely someone, somewhere has to own something...…..

So the choice is between the WHO, in the pockets of China and the Tories, in the pockets of Russia.
What fun!
