MHRA Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency is NOT independent

Recommended Posts

All I've been hearing from Chris Whitty, Matt Hancock, Boris Johnson etc etc is the independence of the MHRA,

the body which decides whether any of the vaccines pass the safety test.

 

NOTHING could be further from the truth, as far as I can tell.

 

Paul Flynn MP tabled this early day motion in 2013

 

"That this House calls for reform of the weak Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) that is funded by the pharmaceutical industry and repeatedly fails the public interest; is appalled that the 20,000 victims of birth defects arising from the use of sodium valproate (Epilim) have been denied legal aid while American parents have already received compensation; recalls that there were 2,000 victims of Thalidomide in the UK and only 20 in the US; congratulates the US regulator, the Food and Drug Administration that revealed that 60,000 deaths had resulted from the use of the anti-arthritis drug Vioxx while no alarm was registered here because of the MHRA's defective system of reporting drug side-effects; commends the US' massive fine on Glaxo Smith Kline of $3.5 billion for suppressing negative results of drug trials while no action has been taken here for identical misdemeanours; and believes that the UK should be protected by a fully independent regulatory authority liberated from financial dependence on the pharmaceutical industry. "

6. How is the MHRA funded?

 

The costs of medicines regulations are met by fees from the pharmaceutical industry. In contrast, the funding of device regulation is from the Department of Health (external link).

Funding

The MHRA is funded by the Department of Health and Social Care for the regulation of medical devices, whilst the costs of medicines regulation is met through fees from the pharmaceutical industry.[3] This has led to suggestions by some MPs that the MHRA is too reliant on industry, and so not fully independent.[4]

Criticism

In 2005, the MHRA was criticised by the House of Commons Health Committee for, among other things, lacking transparency,[5] and for inadequately checking drug licensing data. The MHRA and the US Food and Drug Administration were criticised in the 2012 book Bad Pharma,[7] and in 2004 by David Healy in evidence to the House of Commons Health Committee,[8] for having undergone regulatory capture, i.e. advancing the interests of the drug companies rather than the interests of the public.

First five minutes, UK Column confirm several people employed by MHRA ARE NOT INDEPENDENT.

 

The folk in the MHRA are going to pause from counting all the money that the bill and melinda gates has buried them under for just long enough to rubber stamp every single experimental vaccine that is sent their way

 

The government have already bought millions of pounds worth of the vaccines BEFORE they have even been approved.

 

If i learned anything in the 2008 credit crunch its that the government regulators ain't regulatin
