THE UK IS A LIVING LABORATORY AND WE ARE THE RATS

In my view, The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is far from an independent guardian of public safety. When I hear the word safety, I automatically think danger. The MHRA describe themselves as an ‘enabler’ rather than a true ‘regulator’. Shockingly the MHRA is 86% funded by the pharmaceutical industry. This, along with a revolving door of conflicts of interests, creates an environment that, intentionally prevents rigorous, honest oversight of clinical trials aka experiments and drug approvals.

The population of the United Kingdom are all compulsorily opted in to the NHS whether they like it or not. Most private health providers do not provide accident and emergency or intensive care facilities. We are all, in the event of an accident, emergency or critical illness at the mercy of the NHS. Once known as the treasure of the UK, it is fast becoming an experimental laboratory and we are the lab rats, "lab rats" for profit-driven innovations like mRNA cancer vaccines or weight-loss jabs used off-label for profit whether we like it or not. Many of these so-called innovative drugs have ‘black box’ or ‘black triangle’ warnings on them. A sign of EXTRA vigilance, EXTRA caution. But who takes any notice of a black symbol? 

Rushed approvals of ‘pharmaceuticals’, biologics during the ‘pandemic’ became normalised. Long term safety data was non-existent. Patient information was vague and inadequate. There was no transparency of ingredients of the ‘vaccine’. No trial validated adverse reactions was disclosed. Despite this, shockingly this included children and vulnerable groups. Seemingly we were swimming around in an ocean of unknowns…. but going with it anyway. What could possibly go wrong. 

For years I have been questioning the integrity of figures/decision makers involved in ‘authorisations and clinical trials. Clinical Trials, a benign term for an experiment. With a tiny shift in the nuancing of language, an experiment suddenly becomes an opportunity (often in desperation), an honour, even a duty. Would those who were experimented on by Mengele be so quick to recommend an experiment. The horrors of the past have returned, rebranded and remodelled, at a speed faster than light itself. 

Let’s be clear, in the old days a clinical trial would be advertised through various media forums. Many students struggling to survive, relied on extra income that these trials would provide. Up to £4k a trial. But more importantly they were voluntary. Clinical Trials would, in the past be carried out in 4 phases and have to pass each stage before progressing to the next. If successful the product would be approved and available to the public. However, many clinical trials could fail at stage 4, perhaps 5 – 7 years in, thus proving very costly for pharmaceutical companies. 

Today in 2026 the MHRA are responsible for approving applications for clinical trials, aka experiments. The United Kingdom is the ‘Life Science’ capital of the world and will be the global FIRST CHOICE for clinical trials. Let that sink in. Scientists around the world at last have a global laboratory to work from. The UK. 

On 13 January 2026 the MHRA published their plan to allow patients to benefit sooner, as UK boosts ‘attractiveness’ with faster assessments and agile regulation. 

I have repeatedly called out the MHRA for failing to adequately monitor or address reported harms, pushing data-sharing arrangements (like with CPRD) that I sees as exploitative ways to harvest patient information for big pharma benefit. Patient safety appears to have been thrown out of the window. Priorities have changed. Our safety or industry’s profits? Speed over life. Let’s be clear, this is not about ‘our’ best interests. The only ones to benefit are those who carry the experiments out. 

I would likely argue that the MHRA's handling of clinical trials exemplifies a broken system: one corrupted by financial dependencies, lacking transparency, and who are willing to experiment on the public under the guise of innovation and "public health." I would urge people to be aware, question approvals, protect children especially, and demand real accountability. Experimental treatments should never be rolled out without ironclad evidence of long-term safety.

Trust has been shattered, and the regulator meant to protect us is too compromised to do so effectively. Lest we forget the acronym to MHRA is HARM. Do you know what you are signing up to? Do a risk assessment first. If you don’t you could soon see yourself on a the fastest and most dangerous rollercoaster in the world.
