The videos of the Forbidden Conference

The videos about the conference are stored in the section “Forbidden Conference” of our multimedia portal system.

We apologize to our readers for the sometimes amateurish quality of the videos – but please understand that, with the prohibition of the Conference on Prohibition at the EU Parliament, we lost both the interpreters and the professional video recording capabilities planned for the event. Thus, the videos we are showing were captured with hand-held personal camcorders brought in by the participants in the conference. A big thanks to them for making the videos possible!

Because of the dirty manoeuvre of not communicating the cancellation to the organizers and letting them discover the suppression by themselves just a few days before the event (all the details here), there was little time to reorganize everything. It is already a miracle that the conference itself could be held (and was a success) in the first place, given the circumstances. Once again we express our appreciation to the UKIP/IND-DEM group, which has demonstrated a unique dedication to the cause of truth and freedom.

THE SPEAKERS

• Godfrey Bloom, MEP - Opening Statement. An indignant Godfrey Bloom talks about the dirty political maneuvre to silence free speech by misrepresenting the conference as commercially oriented.
• Prof. Jan Snel on the psychological benefits of smoking, and describes the role of smoking as a key component of pleasure and how pleasure is essential to good health -- definitely a forbidden issue! Smoking is bad, bad, bad, says the ideology! 
• Dr. Barry Craven on the economic effects of smoking bans - Dr. Craven describes and demonstrates the devastating damages of smoking bans and belies one more time the umpeent fraud by Tobacco Control that smoking bans are "good for business".
• Gian Turci on the attitude that must be taken to deal with Tobacco Control, its ideology and "public health" in general.
  No more petitions, begging, or debate. "The debate is (and always was) over". It is time to damage and destroy Tobacco Control, its ideology, its scientific frauds, and the fascism it represents.
• Nick Hogan on the pub situation and on private property .
• Gawain Towler (IND-DEM) explains how the conference was forbidden with a backdoor manoeuvre by Pharma-antismoking forces
• The Fraud of Environmental Tobacco Smoke Risks - Dr. Gio Gori's speech conclusively demonstrates that the "dangers" of ETS are a conscious fraud perpetrated by the public health institutions and authorities. Dr. Gori refers to slides; those can be found by clicking here, then looking for the written PDF copy of Gori's speech, that includes the slides. This video is mandatory viewing for all those who are seriously interested in the exploration of the gravity of the corruption of the public health institutions.
• Iro Cyr (C.A.G.E. Canada) reads the message of Prof. Molimard (France), unable to participate in the conference, but certainly present in spirit!
• Christopher Snowdon explains the historical Nazi origins of the Tobacco Control movement, and how those origins have adapted to our century through the "public health" channel
• Opening of the afternoon section (Jan 27). Christoph Loevenich is the chair of the afternoon section, and it presents the abstact of the speech of Prof. Rein Vos, unable to attend, and read by Mr. John Gray.

THE QUESTIONS OF THE PUBLIC TO THE PANELS

Why do people smoke? – Psychologist Dr. Jan Snel answers the burning question.

How can we make our voice heard? – Godfrey Bloom answers a question concerning why the mass-media are lackeys of governments, antitobacco and healthism, which never reveal public health institutional frauds, while at the same time oppressing those who denounce such frauds. A second question concerns putting together a political block to fight prohibition and lifestyle control and to restore some integrity in institutions.

Why aren’t we helped by the tobacco industry? – Responding to a very common and natural series of questions: Why isn’t the tobacco industry helping? Shouldn’t the tobacco industry be in favour of the elimination of smoking bans, the proliferation of smoking, and the freedom of choice of people to smoke? Is it worth pursuing the industry to try to get economic help? Gian Turci gives straight answers that remove all doubts and illusions.

Christopher Snowdon answers questions -- After his speech, Snowdon answers several questions, including commenting of the absurd claims of the health authorities about passive smoking and the "benefits" of smoking bans, that are "insane" and he puts it, and contrary to any logic and even mathematics.

Gian Turci answers question on safe cigarette - Turci is asked an interesting question about safer cigarettes. He explains the suppression of the safe cigarette mentioned by Gori in his speech and also goes further by stating that there is more than health at stake -- such as greed, power, money, and the need to hate. The is followed by comments by Nick Hogan and Godfrey Bloom.

On racism and tolerance and hate - Arminda Mota (Canada) picks up the issue of hatred and rights from the comments of Turci, Bloom and Hogan, and brings more exampled from her country. Homosexuals, blacks, Jews and a vast number of other groups are "protected groups" in spit of the obvious and scientifically real risks of certain behaviours for public health. However, smokers do not have any right. The excuse is that "they can change behaviour". Turci intervenes by explaining that sheer force is what it takes to make one's rights respected -- not complaining and telling each other horror stories. When force has been used (as it was the case for all the examples above) the public opinion shifted from utter contempt to absolute respect.
