       Nigel Farage has torn into Keir Starmer’s government for handing hundreds of millions to the World Health Organisation while British pensioners sit shivering in their own homes.

       The Reform UK leader made the claim as his campaign group opposing the handover of extra powers to the body launched a review into how it should be reformed - or replaced altogether.

       In May, Mr Farage helped launched the campaign calling for the UK to join with other sovereign democracies to oppose WHO plans for what he branded a worrying power grab.

       Today, Action on World Health has launched the ‘Bell Review’, a working group of nine experts who will develop proposals to radically reform, or replace, the WHO.

       The group includes former WHO and United Nation officials and advisors, and led by Dr David Bell - a former WHO medical officer - who will examine how the health body should operate to control global disease outbreaks.

       When he helped launch the group earlier this year, Mr Farage warned that while the WHO, like the EU, had been founded on noble principles, it is now letting the world down, as exemplified during the Covid-19 pandemic.

       He claimed that the planned Pandemic Preparedness Treaty would give the WHO the power to to mandate lockdowns in Britain, as well as force the UK to surrender up to 20% of its vaccines in a future outbreak.

       He also demanded that the China-friendly Director General of the WHO, Dr Tedros, should be sacked.

       Dr Bell, who will lead the Action on World Health’s review, argues that the WHO must reflect the will and well-being of sovereign individuals and national governments, and not impose its will from on high.

       Mr Farage told the Express that many people “haven’t forgiven the WHO for the role it played during COVID”.

       “Despite the obvious cover up and misinformation by Tedros and China, none of them have ever been held to account. Even today China still wields the most power in The WHO, and yet gets away with paying the least of all the richest nations on the planet.

       "Even as British pensioners struggle to heat their homes, and farmers struggle to make a living, the UK Government only last week committed an extra ￡310 million of funding to this corrupt and failing organisation.”

       Mr Farage warned that Donald Trump’s election means the campaign has a “once in a generation opportunity to reform the WHO and Take Back Control”, echoing the Brexit referendum slogan.

       He took aim at WHO officials: “The bureaucrats who run it can no longer ignore the growing dissatisfaction from people across the world. It either reforms or gets replaced!”

       The Bell Review will initially report back in five months, with a report addressing what principles the WHO should adhere to, the purpose of the organisation, how it should be governed, and what areas it is succeeding and failing in.

       Five months later it will publish phase two, addressing the WHO’s limitations and key drivers of failure, and the necessary approaches to reforming or replacing the WHO.

       Dr David Bell added that he and his colleagues have become “increasingly concerned with the departure of the WHO from its roots”.

       “We care passionately about international health, and with the right set of reforms, can improve

       the health of all peoples, restore national ownership, protect bodily autonomy, end conflicts of interest and restore good governance.

       “Only through the right set of reforms can the WHO return to core public health principles and its reputation be saved.”

       In May, a WHO spokesman hit back at claims that the treaty will undermine national sovereignty.

       They told the Express: “There is no truth in this claim. This has been rejected by the UK Government itself, multiple other sovereign states, and WHO repeatedly”.

       “The draft pandemic agreement will not, and cannot, grant sovereignty to WHO. Claims that the draft agreement will cede sovereignty to WHO and will give the WHO Secretariat power to impose lockdowns or vaccine mandates on countries, have never been requested nor proposed.”

       The spokesman denied that the organisation’s Director General, Dr Tedros, should stand down due to his supposed closeness to China, describing it as a “baseless claim”.
