I use my diary as a record of my personal observations but also about world trends. Most of those matters are covered in my covid site, but I believe this topic is so important for us all that I have reproduced the article in full so that all my readers are fully aware of the plans that are being made for us. I wish it were not so. The author wrote this a couple of years ago, but the plans are...
