Summary
Nigel Farage’s anti-WHO campaign, Action on World Health, is launching a major U.S. presence with a Delaware-based charity and grassroots nonprofit, fueled by claims the WHO is too China-friendly and overly reliant on private money. The group has expanded its board with key allies including Andy Wigmore, Gerry Gunster, Amanda Moslé Friedman, and Greg Swenson — all with ties to Farage’s Brexit efforts or U.S. lobbying circles. With Farage making frequent trips to America since becoming an MP, the campaign is now actively fundraising from U.S. donors and urging global citizens to contact their politicians — oddly excluding UK residents. The move echoes Trump’s past WHO withdrawal and comes amid controversy over the group’s past ties to the nicotine industry and its pro-vaping stance. Critics are now calling for tighter rules on MPs’ side gigs, frustrated by stalled reforms. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
