Suppressed, Banned and Demonised. By Vernon Coleman.
At the end of the 1980s, there was a not very subtle change in the way the establishment treated original thinking: anyone who questioned the ‘official’ line was either actively suppressed or attacked. Any questioning of vaccination or vivisection, for example, drew violent attacks from the medical establishment and, in particular, from the pharmaceutical industry.
I was sued by all sorts of people … Most of the lawsuits were, I suspect, more to cause annoyance and waste my time. Because of my opposition to vivisection, I had MI5 and private detectives (hired by drug companies) chasing me and tracking me down. … I received writs so thick that they wouldn’t fit through the letterbox and had to be pushed through a cat flap. I’ve had papers relating to drug companies stolen from my home. And, of course, my phone has been tapped for years. …
I resigned from my last national newspaper column in 2003 after the editor refused to publish an article I had written criticising the Iraq war. …
After I exposed the way the AIDS ‘crisis’ had been exaggerated, I found that I was no longer invited to contribute to TV or radio programmes. And publishers around the world suddenly let my books go out of print or remaindered them — and refused to consider new titles. A German publisher had been selling large amounts of my books but my books disappeared overnight. The publishers did not respond when I asked for royalty statements. …
Book contracts were suddenly withdrawn and TV companies cancelled invitations. By the late 1990s, for no discernible reason, nasty articles about me started to appear in the national press. A nasty and inaccurate piece about me appeared in The Spectator. It was commissioned by Boris Johnson and written by his sister. (The Spectator had to publish a letter of correction.) …
Covid 2020:
In February and March of 2020, I questioned the claim that we were at the start of a major plague. My comments (all of which were entirely accurate and based on fact) proved deeply unpopular with the medical and political establishment..
Twenty years previously, I’d been allotted a Wikipedia page (though I had frequently asked for it to be removed). Suddenly the content of the page was dramatically changed and distorted. Overnight, without any evidence, I became a conspiracy theorist and a discredited doctor. All details of my books, TV series and columns were removed and replaced.
Wikipedia pages which had been put up about two of my book series (Mrs Caldicot and Bilbury) mysteriously disappeared. Google repeated the lies. It was clear this was all designed to make sure that no one took any notice of what I had to say.
Even the Wikipedia site relating to the award winning movie of my novel Mrs Caldicot’s Cabbage War has been deliberately wrecked. The film had terrific reviews, is regularly shown on TV and has over 1,000 reviews at nearly 5 stars on Amazon but Wikipedia now shows only a one star review from the BBC. The only time I’m mentioned as the author, I’m described, inevitably, as a conspiracy theorist.
(Incidentally, some Wikipedia editors will remove rubbish from a page if you give them money. Then if it gets changed back they want more money to tidy it up again. It’s probably quite a nice little earner for those Wikipedia editors.)
I was accused of spreading misinformation because the truth I was telling was considered inconvenient. I was wrongly accused of having been struck off the medical register. I was even accused of falsely claiming to be a doctor. Both print and broadcast media attacked me. I was accused of making videos to ‘make money’ though I had always refused to monetise them because I didn’t want adverts on them.
Telling the truth cost me a great deal of money, two years of my life …, a destroyed reputation, a career in tatters and a constant stream of abuse from trolls working for the conspirators.
Four decades ago my books were reviewed in most national newspapers and magazines, in countries all around the world. Today, my books are now never reviewed or serialised. Publishers in the UK and the US won’t publish them and mainstream papers which regularly used to commission articles won’t touch anything with my name on. (I’ve had four books banned in the last two years. Not even independent platforms will carry them.) …
None of those who has banned me or attacked me or accused me of spreading misinformation have ever found any inaccuracies in anything I’ve written.
YouTube removed my channel and banned me permanently. They even banned me from looking at other people’s videos. Nothing in the videos I made was factually inaccurate. …
Early on I suggested that lockdown victims should take vitamin D supplements. YouTube censored, removed and banned the video. A month or so later the Government issued exactly the same warning. …
I was refused permission to open a Facebook account or a Twitter account. My account on LinkedIn was suddenly closed without warning or explanation. I am not allowed any access to social media sites but fake sites have appeared in my name and are allowed to remain.
My website had been hacked and attacked for decades but for the last two years there have been at least 5,000 to 6,000 hacking attempts every month on the two main sites. …
Privately and professionally, sharing the truth in 2020 was the worst thing I ever did. It has brought me and my beloved, hard-working and constantly loyal wife nothing but personal and professional pain. It has taken up nearly every minute of my life for two years.
The aim of the attacks was not, simply to destroy me — it was to stop people listening to anything I said, or reading anything I wrote. Before March 2020 I had many millions of readers around the world. I wonder how many I have left now. Precious few, I suspect. How do people know that the word ‘discredited’, plucked out of thin air and applied to my name by Google, is just a libel and not a fact? …
The abuse on social media grew and grew. It isn’t normal, unpleasant social media abuse. It is a campaign of suppression and oppression, decorated with malicious lies, and threats (including death threats) invented to help keep the truth suppressed.
If my videos or articles are put on sites such as YouTube by other people they are taken down within minutes.
Someone watches everything I do. In May 2022, a publisher working outside the UK and the US finally produced an English language paperback version of my thrice banned book Covid-19: The Greatest Hoax in History. I mentioned the book’s publication on my website. Within hours the publisher’s PayPal account was closed making it difficult for him to sell books by mail order. He then opened another payment account with a different company and, almost immediately, that account was also closed. …
Everything I’ve written was absolutely accurate and time and time again my predictions have been correct. The videos I’ve made are still available on www.vernoncoleman.org and my articles are available there and on www.vernoncoleman.com
I tell you all this to show just how bad things have become, how the truth is suppressed and how whistle-blowers and truth-tellers are mercilessly and ruthlessly demonised.
They call it “progress,” but it looks increasingly like a return to the Middle Ages.
His account doesn’t make me want to rush out and tell the world how exactly the climate models have it wrong and exaggerate the warming due to increasing carbon dioxide .
