Sir
Patrick Vallance - Science
Minister, Scientific Adviser
SIR PATRICK VALLANCE
Sir Patrick Vallance has been appointed as the minister of state for science, having served as the Government’s chief scientific adviser from 2018 to 2023.
He came to prominence during the pandemic as one of the scientific experts who appeared on the nation’s televisions in daily briefings. Sir Patrick, 64, publicly backed Labour’s flagship manifesto pledge to set up a publicly owned
energy firm in May.
One of the issues being that the National
Grid is foreign owned, meaning profits do not go to improving the electricity
infrastructure needed for the transition to renewables, for zero
emission transport and heating.
This
was the fault of Conservative
Prime Minister Margaret
Thatcher, with her Great
British Garage Sale.
Sir Patrick Vallance FRS FMedSci FRCP HonFREng was appointed Minister of State (Minister for Science) on 5 July 2024.
He was previously Government Chief Scientific Adviser (GCSA) from April 2018 to April 2023. He was also National Technology Adviser (NTA) and Head of the Government Science and Engineering (GSE) Profession.

During his period as head of R&D, many new medicines were approved for use worldwide, for diseases ranging from
cancer and rare diseases in children, to asthma and HIV.
Prior to joining GSK, he was a clinical academic, Professor of Medicine and led the Division of Medicine at UCL. He has many years’ experience of basic science and clinical research, and was a consultant physician in the NHS. His research spanned from work on medicinal chemistry and structural biology, through to cellular work, studies in
humans and use of large electronic health record databases.

FOSSIL
FOOLS - Geriatric politicians with 'climate-senile' policies will
find in difficult to break away from their corrupt ways, as part time
politicians with two jobs. Their main job being to find paid consultancy
work, rather than craft policies and create statute that works to
protect our voters from lung
cancer, energy shortages and a lack of affordable (sustainable)
housing.
The
'zerophobics' are the undertakers of the political world, sending
millions of ordinary people to an early grave, while loading us with NHS,
hospital and staff costs that would not be needed if we had clean air in
our cities.
Basically,
the longer you are in politics, the more likely you are to be exposed to
bribes, from climate
deniers, mostly fossil fuel and energy companies, looking to keep on
pumping toxic fumes into the atmosphere, so they can keep making money.
The political undertakers are working with them to keep hospitals
stocked with cancer victims, adding to the £Trillions we owe as part of
the national debt. Under Boris and Rishi Sunack, pensioner's saving have
halved in real terms. They are blood sucking vampires, draining what
little you had saved for your retirement.
