(Natural News)—As life in the United Kingdom descends to the kind of oligarchical tyranny that once marred its landscape, the Bank of England is set to roll out the digital pound, a central bank digital currency (CBDC) that promises to be the ultimate surveillance tool. This move, coupled with the UK government’s recent publication of its National Payments Vision, marks a significant step toward a financial system where every transaction is meticulously recorded, monitored, and controlled.
The Bank of England’s claims of “privacy, not anonymity” ring hollow in the face of the massive data collection that will be enabled by the digital pound. According to the BoE-MIT paper, “Enhancing the Privacy of a Digital Pound,” the digital currency will still allow for the collection and accessibility of payment and identity data by law enforcement and other authorities. The government’s assurance that this data will be regulated under legislation is little solace, given the potential for abuse and data breaches.
The implementation of privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) like pseudonymization and zero-knowledge proofs may provide some semblance of security, but these measures are fraught with their own set of risks.
The UK government’s intention to continue the design phase for the digital pound is not just a technical endeavor but a deliberate move to build a society where independent financial transactions are increasingly monitored and restricted. The very idea that individuals would have more control over their data is absurd, given the central bank’s direct access and the inevitable dependencies on government-mandated systems.
Direct assault on personal privacy
This is not just an infringement on financial freedom; it’s a direct assault on personal privacy. As more countries worldwide pursue similar CBDC strategies, we’re entering an era where governments hold the keys to your financial life. Your choices, your purchases, and your financial habits become data points in a vast surveillance net, with potentially dire consequences for dissent and individual autonomy.
The U.K. government’s push for a digital pound is not about enhancing privacy; it’s about establishing control. Citizens will be forced into a system where every transaction is tracked, where the government can see, analyze, and possibly influence every aspect of your financial life. It is a move towards a dystopian future where financial independence is a relic of the past, and your every financial move is dictated by an all-seeing, all-knowing authority.
As countries flirt with the idea of a future void of autonomy, individuality, and privacy, governments will ensure citizens that their lives will be easier, more comfortable, safer. However, individuals must wake up and realize that their purchasing choices and financial transactions are theirs alone, and should not be subject to the looming specter of government oversight and control. We must fight for a currency and a financial system that respects and protects privacy, not just pays it lip service.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
