Immunity: Why the Gates Foundation is stoking controversy

A video on YouTube from 2021 recently emerged, showing tech mogul and philanthropist Bill Gates being confronted by angry crowds in London. The seemingly irate crowd was shouting “Arrest Bill Gates” amid other ramblings, while accusing him of being a “murderer.”

According to Newsweek, an online US publication, Gates was in the UK capital to dine with the then Prime Minister, Boris Johnson — another controversial figure. Johnson had invited 20 of the most influential business figures in the world to an event to help ‘promote British interests internationally’.

Gates, one of the world’s richest people, has been at the centre of unfounded conspiracy theories involving the Covid-19 pandemic and the development of vaccines.
