A shadowy Army unit secretly spied on British citizens who criticised
the Government's Covid lockdown policies, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
Military operatives in the UK's 'information warfare' brigade were part
of a sinister operation that targeted politicians and high-profile >journalists who raised doubts about the official pandemic response.
They compiled dossiers on public figures such as ex-Minister David
Davis, who questioned the modelling behind alarming death toll
predictions, as well as journalists such as Peter Hitchens and Toby
Young. Their dissenting views were then reported back to No 10.
Documents obtained by the civil liberties group Big Brother Watch, and
shared exclusively with this newspaper, exposed the work of Government
cells such as the Counter Disinformation Unit, based in the Department
for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, and the Rapid Response Unit in
the Cabinet Office.

But the most secretive is the MoD's 77th Brigade, which deploys

According to a whistleblower who worked for the brigade during the
lockdowns, the unit strayed far beyond its remit of targeting foreign
powers.
They said that British citizens' social media accounts were scrutinised
– a sinister activity that the Ministry of Defence, in public,
repeatedly denied doing.

Last night, former Cabinet Minister Mr Davis, a member of the Privy
Council, said: 'It's outrageous that people questioning the Government's >policies were subject to covert surveillance' – and questioned the waste
of public money.
Mail on Sunday journalist Mr Hitchens was monitored after sharing an

said Mr Hitchens wanted to 'further [an] anti-lockdown agenda and
influence the Commons vote'.
Writing today, Mr Hitchens questions if he was 'shadow-banned' over his >criticisms, with his views effectively censored by being downgraded in

By Anonymous (Ex-77th brigade officer)
I was serving in the British Army in March 2020 when I was seconded to
77th Brigade, on the basis I would be helping root out foreign state >misinformation on social media.
We were told what was legally allowed – such as 'scraping' online
platforms for keywords – and what was illegal. This included repeatedly >looking at a named UK individual's account without authorisation,
although some people would do that from their own accounts after their
shift.
We would take screenshots of tweets from people expressing
dissatisfaction with the UK Government's action against Covid. The
project leader would then gather these screenshots and send them to the >Cabinet Office. Feedback from the Cabinet Office would direct us over
what to look for the next day.
To skirt the legal difficulties of a military unit monitoring domestic >dissent, the view was that unless a profile explicitly stated their real
name and nationality they could be a foreign agent and were fair game.
But it is quite obvious that our activities resulted in the monitoring
of the UK population… the social media posts of ordinary, scared people. >These posts did not contain information that was untrue or co-ordinated
– it was simply fear.
We learned from the feedback that the Government were very keen on
hearing what the public thought of their Covid response.
I entered this role believing I would be uncovering foreign information >warfare. Instead, I found the banner of disinformation was a guise under >which the British military was being deployed to monitor and flag our
own concerned citizens. There may have actually been social media
campaigns from China to promote lockdown policies but because we were >directed to monitor sentiment towards the success of lockdown, we would
have completely missed them. I had the impression the Government were
more interested in protecting the success of their policies than
uncovering foreign interference, and I regret that I was a part of it.
Recently, I looked over my medals and thought of all I have done in my
career – things I am proud of, in the defence of the people of this
country – except my work on 'disinformation' in 77, which hangs over my >career like a black cloud.
It was about domestic perception, not national security. Frankly, the
work I was doing should never have happened. This domestic monitoring of >citizens seemed not to be driven by a desire to address the public's >concerns, but to identify levers for compliance with controversial
Government policies.
I do not doubt that the activities I participated in were conceived for
good reasons, but they were undemocratic, wrong, and should not be
allowed to happen again.
PETER HITCHENS: How shadowy censors tried to remove my 'unhelpful' Covid >views from YouTube
I have been annoying people for decades. It is my job as a journalist to
do so. And when I look back on my career, I only regret that I did not
annoy more of them. News is what powerful people want to keep out of the >media. Interesting commentary strays outside the mainstream and
challenges conventional wisdom. That is why it so often wears better,
over time, than the standard official opinion.
We'll have to wait and see how the Ukraine war goes, which almost
everyone currently thinks is a good thing. But the near-unanimous view
of the Covid crisis back in 2020 is now beginning to look a bit threadbare.
Did we really do the right thing, squandering all that money we didn't
have on making people stay at home? Now we're deep underwater in
unpayable debt, the currency is shrivelling, multitudes have given up
regular work patterns and a terrifying number of businesses are in
permanent trouble because their customers have melted away. And we
absolutely did not save the NHS. In fact, we made it much, much worse.

I was almost alone in criticising these measures when they began. In
fact, for the first few days I was totally alone – except that The Mail
on Sunday, upholding the proper tradition of a free press – allowed me
to dissent and gave me generous space to do so. That was absolutely
proper. I was responsible for what I said. The newspaper did not have to >agree with me, but it took the civilised view that open debate favours
the truth, or as Milton put it in his great defence of free speech, >Areopagitica: 'Who ever knew Truth put to the worse, in a free and open >encounter?'
Someone had fiddled with the algorithms which guide web searches
After a few weeks, it became clear that not everyone was as enlightened
as The Mail on Sunday.
Invitations from broadcasters, who had previously been friendly and >reasonably generous with their time, stopped arriving, with a few heroic >exceptions such as Mike Graham on Talk Radio.
Various people went on to Twitter and elsewhere to ludicrously accuse me
of 'denying' Covid or of having caused the deaths of people by
expressing doubts about the restrictions, a very nasty slander.
Despite having been vaccinated myself, I was simultaneously denounced as
an 'anti-vaxxer' by Covid zealots, and became the object of fury from
genuine anti-vaxxers who decided madly that I was a traitor even though
I had never adopted their cause (one of these pursued me on to a train
to shout at me, only the other day).

But the deeper effect was harder to pin down. For it was on the
internet, the most vital forum of all. Here, you can never be sure.
I use Twitter a lot, but are others seeing my tweets? I have no idea,
and will never know whether I was 'shadow-banned' – a form of censorship
in which your impact is reduced but not actually obliterated, so hard to >measure or spot.
But at two points it was clear beyond doubt that something very creepy
was going on. I give quite a few interviews which appear later on
YouTube, sometimes getting more than 100,000 viewers.
In June 2020, I gave an interview about the virus farce to two clever
young men, Konstantin Kisin and Francis Foster, who run a popular web >broadcast called TRIGGERnometry. I said what I have been saying here –
that the crashing of the economy and the stifling of personal liberty
were utterly out of proportion to the danger from Covid-19. I gave
evidence for my view and quoted eminent experts. I do not think I said >anything that was false or abusive. But, within a couple of hours of >launching the interview, Konstantin and Francis noticed a very strange
thing. It was almost impossible to find, even if you knew where to look. >Usually, their programme quickly garners large numbers of viewers, and
it had done so on a previous occasion when I'd been interviewed by them
on another matter.
I am pretty sure (but cannot prove) I was the victim of shadow-banning. >Someone had fiddled with the computer algorithms, which guide the
searches everyone makes on the World Wide Web. A lot of people kindly >protested. And as mysteriously as it had been applied, the ban
evaporated, albeit too late. The audience for the interview was
irretrievably reduced. That's not all – on January 25, 2021, YouTube
posted a version of a conversation I had had with Mike Graham on Talk
Radio. But 75 seconds of the original broadcast were missing.
A few weeks before, YouTube had suspended the entire Talk Radio station
from its output. The ban was ended after a major public fuss. I have
never really got to the bottom of what happened to my censored words,
but I think I can say that someone deliberately cut them because they
did not like the opinions I was expressing.
I mention these things because we now have an even more worrying
connection. The report from Big Brother Watch probably only touches the >surface of what Government agencies were up to during the closedown of
the country. We know they were at one stage interested in what I was up
to, but I suspect there was a lot more than this that we will never find.
Suppression can flourish like bindweed if it is not cut back
But the key is Whitehall's special access to the giant internet

you and me, with the special powers given to government, dislike what I
said? Was someone else afraid that the popularity of TRIGGERnometry
would give me and my unwelcome views a new, wider audience? I can only
guess, and so can you.
But the circumstantial evidence is strong. And I believe that this is
the way censorship will reappear among us, as governments grow less
tolerant of opposition.
To me, the most astonishing thing about the great Covid panic was how

The only *healthy* way to stop the pandemic, thereby saving lives, in
the UK & elsewhere is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19
) finding out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who
among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://tinyurl.com/ConvinceItForward (John

best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage mutations and others like the Omicron, Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota,
Lambda, Mu & Delta lineage mutations combining via

hisand to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and
not in us.
