SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 31 – How corrupt and
undemocratic is today's United
Nations? They sent Swiss
police to the house of
whistleblower Emma Reilly who,
like Inner City Press, timely
filed to oppose a second term
for Antonio Guterres.
Now they have
taken a first
step to fire Reilly,
claiming that it is irrelevant
whether or not OHCHR shared
the names of Uighur dissidents
coming to testify in Geneva
with the Chinese government
for worse forms of
retaliation. This is the
disgusting UN of Guterres.
Now that Guterres
has stolen a second five-year
term, while banning
the Press for the 1225th day
for daring to ask about his
finances and failures, he has
collaborators.
The
current President of the
General Assembly Volkan
Bozkir, a strongman from
Turkey who due to his bigoted
comments even pro-UN New York
City Mayor Bill de Blasio
wouldn't meet with, had the
duty of circulating letters
from candidates.
But
throughout February 2021 (and
since) Bozkir refused to
circulate the letter of UN
staffer candidate Arora
Akanksha.
Bozkir's
spokesman Brendan Varma, who
blocks Inner City Press
on Twitter, continued to dance
around what the rules are and
won't answer.
So, as a
test - and to raise the issue
of the UN's lack of content
neutral media access rules, lack
of a Freedom of Information
Act (fought for the Free
UN Coalition for Access) and
lack of scruples - Inner City
Press on the morning of
February 26 submitted a signed
letter
and C.V. to the PGA's Office
and to Varma. Since
then, dodging and blockage,

Your
Excellencies,
Kindly find attached my
application for the post of
Secretary-General, along with
a document outlining
accountability gaps that
serves as my vision
statement. As I note in
my cover letter, I intend this
application to raise necessary
questions about UN reform,
ensuring that election by
acclamation is not abused to
further weaken accountability
of UN staff who commit
misconduct. I look
forward to hearing from
you. Kind regards, Emma
Reilly.
And how
did Emma Reilly hear back from
the UN of Guterres? She says
they sent Swiss Police to her
home, ironically while she was
supposed to be on a Zoom
meeting about whistleblowers,
see here.
It's called
swatting. This is how corrupt
the UN has become under
Guterres, who Emma Reilly says
should resign. Inner City
Press - and many others -
agree. Watch this site.
