Great article Miri.

I was unsure on whether Malik was genuine or not until I saw him on the Delingpod. He came across as very self-important and definitely loved the sound of his own voice. I have never heard James say so little on his podcast, at the start he asked Malik to give a bit of background and I think he talked about himself for about 20 mins before James could get a word in! Sadly he’s another one to cross off the ‘genuine truther’ list.

As for you Miri, you are certainly not ‘dark’ and your insights have proved invaluable to many of us. You are the ‘go to’ source for my wife and I. You are very much appreciated 👍🏻

Thank you Mick (and your wife!), very much appreciated.

Yes, in researching my article I talked to quite a few people about Malik, and this was the consistent feedback I got - that he is self-important and full of himself, and always, always talks over people!

Thanks again for your support :)

In these situations the roles get reversed—the guest becomes the “straight man” for the interviewer. The guest mentions something interesting or important and the interviewer launches into his own take on it. ;-(

My poor brain used to overheat & keep me up at night trying to figure out who's genuine & who's not. Those were dark days, even darker than your articles, if that's possible (kidding)? But then I found Rachel Elnaugh & her glowing spirituality & then you killed that too, thanks! You know she had a picture of Jesus as her profile pic a few weeks ago or it could have been her, transformed?

Anyway now I just treat the whole thing as a soap opera, they're playing a game, as you know, don't get emotional & keep educating those closest & dearest as to what's taking place.

And you are spot on, don't wait for any heroes to save you, be your own hero, be vigilant & believe in the power you have. Keep up the great work!

🤣 - oh dear, I did not know that about Elnaugh, but doesn’t surprise me!

You’re absolutely right in all you say and thank you for your support.

Miri I have listened to quite a few of Ahmad Malik's podcasts although not this one yet as he is so prolific it would be almost impossible to listen to them all, particularly as there are many other great resources out there in free-thinking space to read, watch and listen to. Amongst his guests he has given a platform to some very good truthers including Jonathan, Chris Exley, Andrew Wakefield and many others. It's a shame if he has criticised you in the latest one and I hope it's due to frustration from unrequited pursuit of you as a great podcast guest for him rather than any malign infiltration. But I'm aware he shouldn't be let off the hook easily for this and it may sadly be the case that he has been got at.

Regarding your own contribution to our movement, you can definitely hold your head high with or without hat. Rather than negative, I would describe your approach as realistic. I'm not sure what could be described as inaccurate as your facts are I think demonstrable and we can all choose where we stand on the theories you advance. Of course the subjects covered are dark but I believe you are shedding plenty of light on them while to your list of positive measures to overcome any feelings of helplessness I think you can add advice on getting involved at the local level and the voting process in all elections. I have myself followed the advice I first saw from you of the "constructive" ballot spoiling where there is no acceptable truly independent candidate on the list. Thank you for all of this.

Malic (or whatever his name is) speaks with a forked tongue.

In his podcast blurb he talks about "the fantastic Miri AF" then at the very start of the pod he performs a character assassination on you verbally. Forked tongue or what!

Manik calls you "only 80-90% on the ball" "she can be inaccurate" then proceeds to use your most excellent astute letter verbatim. thus totally contradicting himself.

I don't believe for a second that the script wasn't pre-planned and approved if Bridgen had to drive so far to record it.

Molok came across as disingenuous on the Delingpod when he claimed he was worried about how to feed his family then let slip his wife is still an NHS Surgeon. I put my sympathy violin away at this point.

Miri you are a source of inspiration for my wife and I. What I find negative and dark is the fact that so many truthers get sucked into worshipping obvious shill heros such as Bridgen.

Thanks very much indeed, Toeknee, and to your wife too.

Your assessment of Manic Molok is spot on. And absolutely right about the scripted, staged nature of the Bridgen interview. Bridgen knew what he would be asked, they had agreed in advance how it would all be framed, and it was all intended to whitewash him and elevate his "hero" credentials. Thankfully, more and more people are seeing through this obvious shilling and mirage.

Thanks again!

Totally scripted kayfabe the whole thing, without the babe. Such a nauseating experience.

I had to look up “kayfabe” but that’s an excellent term and exactly what it is. For those who don’t know, the definition of the term is “ the portrayal of staged events within the wrestling industry as "real" or "true", specifically the portrayal of competition, rivalries, and relationships between participants as being genuine and not staged.”

Describing you as dark is definitely a projection. Your close encounters with these two provides a very enlightening insight into actual dark forces. You are a beacon of light in these very dark times.

It takes a lot of courage among many other virtues to say what you do. I am very grateful for your work and your writing is excellent.

Thank you, Judith, that's very kind and much appreciated.

Yes, I must admit the term "projection" sprang to mind for me too!

I hadn’t considered that Malik is projecting but you’re right, that’s definitely what he’s doing.

I’m totally with you, Miri. I quite liked AM in his podcast with James but had never heard of him before and haven’t watched or listened to him since, so hopefully my instinct was telling me that he was a waste of time. I did wonder why he’d lost his medical employment when a quite illustrious person like Angus Dalgliesh retains his position at St George’s.

As for Andrew Bridgen, I can’t bear seeing people like the UKC lot seemingly promoting him. Makes you slightly wonder.

Don’t be discouraged , Miri. For what it’s worth (not much!), I really value your essays and outlook which has always seemed to me spot on (and you don’t waste time writing on the wilder rabbit holes for which I am thankful). Thank you for all you do.

Thank you, Priscilla, much appreciated.

You are not the first person to express scepticism about AM's account of how and why he lost his employment. As you say, many doctors have spoken out and remain employed.

And I agree that outfits like UKC and Conservative Woman are very ill-advised to keep promoting Bridgen.

Thanks, Miri. Interesting that you agree about AM's loss of employment, but also re UKC (I gave up TCW some time ago as I couldn't cope with any more article reading!).

Excellent article Miri. The conspiracy, so called, area you cover is a nasty and confusing place to be. Your exposure of AB makes me wonder if some MPs know some of the information you detail. A great pity about Ahmad Malik who seemed genuine to me on the Delingpod. His treatment of you is inexcusable and one wonders why he does not know any better. Harassment indeed.

What motives do these people have and why?

You are absolutely spot-on re: Malik. I was a paid-up subscriber until a sequence of events laid bare to me how much of a shameless, Machiavellian, grifting shyster he appears to be.

A few months ago, he interviewed Ivor Cummins, who stated 'if I went back and looked at all of the original papers and discovered viruses don't exist, for tactical reasons I would say absolutely nothing'. Malik's response was '100% with you, brother, couldn't agree more'.

This exchange was referenced in a video some weeks later by Sam Bailey (Go to 12:40 - https://open.substack.com/pub/drsambailey/p/viruses-dont-exist-and-why-it-matters?r=pezuu&utm_medium=ios) where she calls out both men for their lack of integrity, and mentions she was invited to go on his podcast but declined, and was glad she did so.

Maliks' reaction to this was petulant and immature. He wrote a Substack article in which he published his email exchanges with Bailey, and in the comments section on that article, foments a pile-on against Bailey, referring to her - and Tom Cowan - as cult leaders and defaming them. When a few commenters called him out for publishing private correspondence and generally being a dick, the article went behind a paywall.

So Sam Bailey turns down his podcast invite and references some dodgy comments he made publicly as part of her reasoning. He retaliates vindictively, using ad hominem attacks, and publishes private correspondence. He also badmouths Tom Cowan who it seems may also have turned him down: he had been in contact with Cowan around that time, sending him love hearts by email in his typical faux fawning smarmy schtick, as seen in this video where Cowan’s desktop with a Malik email is on display: https://odysee.com/Thomas_Cowan_Discuss_Jamie's_Thread_on_the_Failed_Transmission_Studies.:7bfdc387b85f33c4e76301d79ee00faa4f5d3663. My guess is Cowan also turned him down, inviting Malik's characteristic wrath.

And just this week, I see he's made a big noise on Substack about a 'hit piece' against him - https://docmalik.substack.com/p/a-hit-piece-on-me-twc-and-me-part - in a Paul Alexander Substack. However, the timing of this is such that I suspect this is a misdirection to draw attention away from your article, and Alexander's is simply smoke and mirrors. Your article is a much more cogent and honest piece, likely capable of nudging anyone harboring doubts about Malik's sincerity.

Your instincts are sharp and to be trusted. Which is why your writing resonates.

Agreed that it's likely to be to detract from addressing Miri's letter and instead addressing another semi-celeb Drs. Same as using Malik to address Miri's letter. Bridgen must be important for the narrative still as arguably this is all be done to protect him by attempting to defang some of the justifiable criticisms made against him. And agree Miri has phenomenal instincts.

Good shout on comparing the misdirection by proxy tactics ie Malik for Miri/Bridgen and Alexander for Miri/Malik. Hadn’t considered that. Team Globohomo really do seem to be playing for hearts and minds. 5GW, infowar and all that. Or just a bunch of deranged NWO / depop masonic acolytes playing divide and conquer for karmic scraps and a few shillings (pun intended).

OOOUCH, buddy. You've only gone and fucking nailed it. Superb.!!

https://christinemasseyfois.substack.com/p/ilse-of-man-political-prisoner-and

A poor fella in the Isle of Man - Courtney Lawrence, has been jailed for

protesting and sending emails to manx 'politicians' about 'covid' and HPV

Jab harms. Gezzer was out on the streets most days in Ramsey, with leaflets,

and posters; he'd been a proper thorn in their sides from the get go. They got

him on harrassment and intimidation [or some such conjured up deal] Courts are

so captured and thoroughly pernicious with it... Apparently one of the 'female'

politicos; feared for her life. She was being 'stalked by an 'anti-vaxxer', and seemed

unable to 'cancel' him.

I really hope poor Andrew doesn't go to jail.. 'cause he does have our best

interests at heart..!!

This is yet another excellent article Miri and I enjoyed listening to it as well.

I can’t bear to listen to Malik anymore with his constant interruptions. Why have guests to interview when he really just wants a monologue?

I’m disappointed to say the least that he thinks it’s ok to make negative comments about you, he’s gone down even more in my estimation.

Your work is brilliant and massively appreciated thankyou Miri.

No-one in the mainstream media is to be trusted. When the covid show hit, four decades of "Rightist" "No Alternative" neoliberalism suddenly vanished in the face of a new "No Alternative" - the "fight against covid" with its "Leftist" veneer. Scepticism was permitted but only from "The Right" who were the new designated bad guys. Though even there, the scepticism was phony e.g. Tory Toby Young ran a site called "Lockdown Sceptics" whose very title gave the game away i.e. sceptical about lockdown but not about covid. And when LS morphed into the meaningless "Daily Sceptic", the illusion was totally shattered.

I don’t quite know what to say, Miri. In a piece like this it is your mastery of narrative structure which shines through and holds the readers’ interest. Nice.

Thanks Miri. I think you are one of the good people and I enjoy your absolute honesty about how you see and experience things happening around us all. Lots to say about all of this but too much for a message. Suffice to say, as always, thanks for sharing. It resonates 🙏🏼👍

Today I listened for the first time to an interview done by Malik but only because it was with Francis O’Neill and I didn’t know who Malik is (TBH I wasn’t going to bother finding out more about him after having read this post). I think, to put it bluntly, Malik is a terrible interviewer. And (postulates to be?) ignorent about so many historic and present happenings that I could not understand on what basis he manages to have any alt social media following. Then bells started ringing and I came back to this post to check it. And right on. I am with you on Malik, Miri. And hats off to Francis who did very well and would probably be fine “if asked to go on BBC”! 😉
