Baroness Eliza Manningham-Buller

Wellcome Oct 1, 2015: Baroness Manningham-Buller is the first woman to chair the Wellcome Trust’s Board of Governors, and was appointed following an open recruitment process. She was previously a Governor of the Wellcome Trust.

2015 - that’s two years after you, Sir Jeremy, took over as Director. You were, of course, appointed by the board of governors, on which Eliza was a key figure. Hopefully the open recruitment process was more open than your inquiry into bullying under yours & Manningham-Buller’s watch? Or similar? Forget about that - so what made you go for the Baroness?

Wellcome: Between 2002 and 2007, Eliza Manningham-Buller was Director-General of the UK Security Service (MI5), and led the service through significant change.

Oh. 

Baroness Manningham-Buller: I am excited by the prospect of working even more closely with the Trust’s director, Jeremy Farrar .. to plan an even more ambitious future for our work.

It’s this even more ambitious future for our work that worries me.  The head of MI5 chairing Wellcome Trust, which specializes in AI/Genomics and bio-data collection/surveillance in conjunction with the CCP - directed by Sir Jeremy Farrar - the chief architect of the Covid Conspiracy.
