#45 Suspended GP Breaks Silence: Why I Risked Everything To Expose The Truth
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Anne McCloskey, a retired GP from Derry who has been suspended by the General Medical Council for challenging the official narrative regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Anne opens up about her transition from a respected physician to a whistleblower, detailing the alleged vaccine injuries she witnessed in her practice and the aggressive legal battles she has fought against regulatory bodies. We discuss the realities of her suspension, her imprisonment for refusing to pay fines, and her conviction that current global health policies are driven by financial interests rather than patient safety. This is a raw, unfiltered conversation about medical censorship, the ethics of healthcare, and the personal cost of standing against the establishment.=========================================Timecodes:00:00 - Suspension update & Introduction 00:43 - Medical background03:23 - Early skepticism06:40 - Midazolam protocols 09:30 - Returning to work12:50 - Story of a teenage diabetic denied face-to-face care 15:40 - The "COVID Cult" 18:13 - The "financial scam" 21:53 - How GP contracts changed to prioritize pharmaceutical targets 26:56 - Patrick Walsh’s data on excess mortality in Ireland 31:26 - The specific video and patient cases that led to suspension 34:00 - The "Midnight Email" from the Chief Medical Officer 37:50 - The "Anti-Human" Agenda: Technocracy and control 42:30 - Fear in the medical community45:40 - The decline of medical education and student debt slavery 50:40 - The end of the NHS and the push for digital health 56:34 - The legal battle01:02:40 - Personal tragedy and the refusal to adjourn hearings 01:08:40 - Imprisonment01:10:47 - Challenging the court jurisdiction: The "Strawman" argument 01:15:20 - Confronting "Naked Evil" and the spiritual battle
