22 DIC 2025 · In the ongoing effort to raise awareness amongst the general public of the ways that globally, governments moved in lockstep during the covid era, to coerce and gaslight the population into compliance, here is another of my presentations - this was the result of an invitation https://nzdsos.com/videos/ursula-edgington-how-a-nation-was-nudged/. This one-hour run-down of the UK Nudge Unit’s MINDSPACE report to Government, provides examples of how their psyops strategies were applied in practice to our own population. The result of this widespread propaganda was pure fear which led to mass-compliance with the Government overreach.The horrific propaganda piece ‘rap’ that I played in the presentation, is also available in all its glory here:IMPORTANT NOTICE!This will be my final post exclusively on Substack, before I move next year onto a new platform, that is independent from totalitarian policies experiences by those in Australia, UK, Canada and elsewhere.

4 DIC 2025 · Incase you didn’t yet know, Covid-era TNT Radio has had a small-scale ‘rebirth’ and is now called https://theworldtoday.news/ News. [Subscribe on https://www.youtube.com/@TWTNewsTalk].

21 NOV 2025 · Here’s an important update from https://informedheart.substack.com/p/mike-ryan-on-tnts-controlled-demolition?r=q9aq0 about the sands that are constantly shifting beneath our feet. Some alternative ‘freedom-loving’ media platforms and independent journos - people we trusted - have been captured. These platforms are not fighting the propaganda - they are reinforcing it. Their message may be slightly skewed towards a more ‘open minded’ audience, but it still serves the same purpose: they deceive us. More details of that very soon.Meanwhile…In this 9 min clip from the latest ‘Protagonists’ show from https://theworldtoday.news/. some important insights are provided by Mike Ryan (Ex-TNT), https://substack.com/profile/26223179-robert-cibis (Oval Media), Dr https://substack.com/profile/1583091-clare-craig (Drs for Medical Ethics, co-Chair of https://www.hartgroup.org/bios/) and Alex Kriel of https://substack.com/profile/206081263-thinking-coalition. For example, some quotes include:Mike: “And the revelations are coming out left, right and centre, that there are a number of independent media who are being paid to come out with a particular sort of narrative…”And Mike would know about this - he used owned TNT Radio, which we now know suffered controlled demolition. And later Alex talks about the published methodology of that strategy from the 1950s:Alex: “…the government infiltrating opposition and destroying it through internal conflict, misdirection, compromising individuals and whatever else. And as to [responding to the question of] which is more dangerous, I don’t think that there’s a good answer to that…dangerous because they’re all sort of gates to capture as you move along.”***Robert: “[in a recent Bundestag hearing]…more than half of neo-Nazis in the German extremist groups, so hundreds of people, were in fact informants were in fact working for the government - and the whole ‘leading class’ of these groups - a hundred percent of them were working for the government and I’m talking about Germany, today, which is…crazy.”***Mike: “I don’t know who’s paying who. At least with legacy media, you know who is paying who generally.” Good point!* So who is being paid, by whom, to come out with what, and why?Well, here’s one example from my Substack colleague https://substack.com/profile/1631143-michael-ginsburg who quite rightly called out the UK Column’s recent very obvious (appalling) change of narrative:And in this particular case study example, this could fit with what we already know about https://informedheart.substack.com/p/intellectual-property-theft-black?r=q9aq0, as I explained here:It is very frustrating and often depressing to discover fundamental flaws, half-truths or worse, in those we listen/watch regularly and rely upon for good quality information. But didn’t we promise ourselves that since the covid era, we would always do our own research, use original documents and never outsource our critical thinking skills again? It’s human nature to get lazy, let’s not fall into that trap again. It’s time to look carefully at that small print.Sometimes the most uncomfortable truths provide us with the most valuable life-lessons. More to follow on this topic. Stay tuned.

19 NOV 2025 · Whilst mixing-up the ingredients of my (hopefully delicious) Christmas Cake, I was also mixing-up my podcast queue. And I was very interested to listen to https://rumble.com/v71vl5c-uk-excess-deaths-cover-up-with-dr-gerry-waters-dr-elizabeth-evans-and-mike-.html on https://theworldtoday.news/ with https://www.bmj.com/content/373/bmj.n987 (interviewed about his GMC suspension by https://substack.com/profile/149074231-doc-malik https://open.substack.com/pub/docmalik/p/111-dr-gerard-waters-the-irish-gp?r=q9aq0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false) and https://open.substack.com/pub/docmalik/p/234-dr-liz-evans-defending-medical?r=q9aq0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false of the https://www.ukmedfreedom.org/ by Mike Ryan - whom many will recognise as owner of the now ‘disappeared’ TNT Radio. The focus of Mike’s latest ‘The Protagonists’ show was the shocking, ongoing cover-up of excess deaths in the UK (and overseas) by the BigPharma-funded regulator enabler, the MHRA. I can highly recommend the extensive work by https://substack.com/profile/56647382-the-situation-room on this topic. Toward the end, Mike’s conversation turned to the practical mechanics of the censorship we all have been victims of, to one degree or another. I’ve clipped here 2 mins (thanks to https://substack.com/profile/1631143-michael-ginsburg for the brilliant ‘Surfast’ tool for doing this kind of crucial editing from a 2-hour conversation!) where Mike talks candidly about the sad demise of TNT Radio, which was generally thought to be https://radio.today/au/tnt-news-and-radio-signing-off-for-now-wrapping-up-the-week-on-friday/. Many of us relied heavily on TNT’s outputs during the covid era - the good, bad and ugly - for diverse sources of international news. The presenters were numerous (some with more skills than others) and based all over the world. Some have fallen by the wayside, but others have remained in the limelight, under different platforms. But where is that valuable ~two year TNT archive now? TNT hosted more that 50 thousand interviews - many of those interviews took hours or days of preparation by the presenter/s and interviewee/s. Apparently over 100 million people tuned in over a year. If, like me, you have searched recently for a specific past TNT show through the various alternative media platforms, you’ll know it’s often not easy…Importantly, in this clip, Mike seems to be trying to warn us about future risks: “I need you to know what happens next, it’s that even the alt media, the other side, we do know, we’re not going to release anything just yet, but we know a lot of the independent journos who have been paid by a particular individual.And they are…spreading the entire narrative that… and even though it’s a bit a little bit twisted and different it’s got the same end result so if you control the annoyances and you have mainstream …”* What does Mike think will ‘happen next’? Who is this ‘particular individual? Which ‘independent journos are being paid? What ‘similar but twisted’ narrative are they trying to ‘spread’? I’ve written recently about https://informedheart.substack.com/p/intellectual-property-theft-black?r=q9aq0 which is detailed within https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/signs-and-society/article/silence-propaganda-a-semiotic-inquiry-into-the-ideologies-of-taciturnity/FB18811512B22D18D7B1140B550E9C78. This is one way that https://open.substack.com/pub/actionabletruth/p/the-truth-about-controlled-opposition?r=q9aq0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false falsely gains the trust of an entity, before turning the tables on them, and using lawfare to unfairly steal intellectual property rights. This complex game can ensure that ‘potentially explosive’ evidence is subsequently hidden or censored. Well, there was certainly plenty of ‘potentially explosive evidence’ presented in those previous TNT segments, eh?Here’s another 2 min clip from the end of the discussion, where Mike reiterates how dangerous this censorship situation is, when they could call another fake emergency at any time and “a number alt media journalists are in the back pocket of this particular person.” Please let me know your thoughts on this topic. AND Please support - however you can - Mike, Liz and Gerry (links above) with their various work of trying to expose the propaganda, shadow-banning and relentless censorship of the excess deaths and disabilities. Thank you. * Thank you to all those who have supported my work, including ** http://buymeacoffee.com/informedheart** It is much appreciated by me and those I support with my research work.

20 OTT 2025 · This is a long (2.5 hour) interview that happened last month, that I’d like to share. I enjoyed this interview as covered lots of ground, and I was asked some good questions from the group. We talked about my background and my current research writing, New Zealand society in general and specific comparisons in the covid era policies, particularly with the UK because Stephen Frost (founder of the DfME) is based in Wales.I also mention topics like NZ’s Tall Poppy Syndrome and Jacinda Ardern’s ‘leadership’ exploiting that propaganda of ‘be kind’ to coerce Kiwis to comply with the medical tyranny. Please use the ‘search’ function on my Substack for topics of interest that I mention in this interview - I have written a lot! I’ll be posting some clips of this too. Many thanks for any feedback or comments or follow-up questions. Thanks for your support!Informed Heart is a reader-supported publication.

2 OTT 2025 · I didn’t know that https://substack.com/profile/65532388-michael-gray-griffith was also a Pom, but has been in the Southern Hemisphere much longer than me. It was good to share some experiences and ideas. Here are the details of some of the things we talked about:The published research about the Corporate Playbook, including the academic work of (also a Pom) Australian https://www.bmartin.cc/. For instance, how people are deliberately censored and defamed if they are counter-narrative…Then we talked about Nurses Collective (Previously Nurses for Freedom) and NZ Teachers Speaking Out with Science (NZTSOS) and a report for each that I co-authored, that we submitted to the NZ Royal Commission Covid Inquiry. We agreed that these were an international whitewash, but nevertheless, how important it is to get this evidence on the public record. You can read extracts from those reports (and download the whole documents) on my Substack, https://informedheart.substack.com/p/short-extract-from-the-nurses-collective and https://informedheart.substack.com/p/i-am-a-victim-of-rape-and-it-brought. You can alsohttps://informedheart.substack.com/p/founder-of-the-nurses-collective where Nurses Collective NZ Founder, Deb Cunliffe talks with me about her experiences of the covid era.We agreed that physical books are the future and Michael https://cafelockedout.com/clo-shop/kulture-literature/ that is a collection of essays exactly for that reason. I look forward to reading it! On the topic of books, we talked about various books describing the pre-WW2 era and what Mattias Desmet describes as the Mass Formation, including https://philosophybreak.com/reading-lists/hannah-arendt/. If you’re interested in this topic, I highly recommend reading Victor Klemperer’s published diaries about Nazi Germany in the 1930’s - that I wrote about here: We talked about Jacinda’s roles post-covid and her current ‘performance’, including the latest cringeworthy movie about her. We also talked about practical ways to avoid the DigitalID, for instance the workshops I provide, that provide ideas for strategies to help us address our addiction to phones, and others around us too. For my workshops, I draw on the work of https://substack.com/profile/134530456-catherine-price for instance: (If you want me to run a (online or face-to-face) short workshop for you, please get in touch!) Another really helpful resource I mentioned is https://reachingpeople.net/ which provides insights into some of the behavioural science “Nudges” that have been on us, and ways to break through the propaganda to help others see the Elephant in the Room:I have written extensively about these Nudges, for instance here:Connected to this, Michael and I also talked about the ‘religion’ (cult?) that forms this strong belief in ‘vaccines’ - and how to overcome it. I haven’t read it yet, but US lawyer Aaron Siri has recently published a new book about this subject called https://vaccinesamen.com/. Finally, Michael asked me about the Charlie Kirk incident. I leave that subject for reader’s own thoughts!Hope you enjoy listening to us chat. Michael is a skilled interviewer and I look forward to talking with him again. Please help share his channels and support his work on his various platforms, eg https://rumble.com/v6zqs3c-interview-with-dr-ursula-edgington-from-new-zealand.html.

15 SET 2025 · This is a conversation (1 hour) we recorded recently (July 2025) for a specific purpose (more on that another day) and a Ping to https://substack.com/profile/206081263-thinking-coalition! Deb and I decided to share it here because it’s increasingly relevant to those people just becoming aware of the fraud and corruption. We need to reflect together on what happened to us five years ago. As our healthcare systems collapse under the heavy weight from staff shortages, lack of facilities, gaslighting and patients’ complex needs, these issues are front of mind.Here’s a brief summary of our discussion:First 15 mins - Background to Deb’s nursing career (she’s a Pom like me), including caring for children with Diabetes. Deb’s experience of the NZ context and Tall Poppy Syndrome. What factors helped Deb ‘wake up’ to the covid fraud and what did she do about it?15 - 25 mins - Setting-up the nurses group ‘Nurses for Freedom’ - now called The Nurses Collective NZ - including witnessing what was happening simultaneously overseas eg in the UK during the policy of Covid Vaccine Mandates. Protests and activism and censorship.21 -26 mins - Deb mentions her interviews by NZ media, for instance https://theplatform.kiwi/(paywalled) and this article from https://youtu.be/YdL1h3VjACQ?si=dT6ZnfsjLyGJXXvV (open access) Current situation in NZ with widespread lack of trust in the healthcare system.26 - 30 mins - NZ Nursing Unions (https://www.nzno.org.nz/is the main one) and the role they played in the silencing of dissent, coercion and propaganda. Also what hope is there from any outcomes from the NZ Royal Commission of Inquiry into Covid? 30 - 35 mins - Nurses who were coerced into taking the injection, without informed consent, including tragic stories of those individuals who suffered adverse reactions. The losses nurses suffered from compliance AND non-compliance. 36 - 40 mins - The ‘vaccine’ mandate ‘exemptions: who qualified and what happened to those who applied? (I’ve written about this topic extensively, https://open.substack.com/pub/informedheart/p/who-decided-whether-vaccine-mandate?r=q9aq0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false and https://open.substack.com/pub/informedheart/p/how-many-vaccine-mandate-exemptions?r=q9aq0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false.)40 - 45 mins - Who are The Nurses Collective NZ and what is happening now? What are Deb’s and members’ current situations and future plans?46 - 50 mins - The ongoing enormous negative social impact as a result of the covid era policies, the lack of acknowledgement of the harms.50 - end - How Deb feels about the NZ politicians who applied the ‘No Jab, No Job’ mandates and the Covid Inquiry. What would happen if the same policies were applied again today? In conclusion: “We tried! We stood up and we did make a difference.” Thank you Deb and The Nurses Collective members for Holding The Line! You can download and read the whole (or just an extract) from the research report that Deborah and I co-authored for The Nurses Collective NZ’s Submission to the https://informedheart.substack.com/p/reflections-of-nz-covid-inquiry-and?r=q9aq0 Government ‘Inquiry’ here:You can connect with the Nurses Collective NZ on Facebook or Telegram (members are vetted). Or contact me privately for more information. Thank you!My own submission to the Covid Inquiry https://open.substack.com/pub/informedheart/p/my-submission-to-the-nz-royal-commission?r=q9aq0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false.
