Bank of england refuses FOIA on how CBDC will link to Digital ID stating it would have a "chilling effect" on deliberations

ManKIND is at war with a brutal unrelenting enemy and is oblivious.

NOW — The Bank of England has upheld its refusal to release documents on the links between Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and digital ID systems.

An internal review, signed off by the Bank’s Deputy Secretary, Michael Salib, concluded that disclosure would have a “chilling effect” on deliberations and risk “destabilising speculation.”

Key points from the Bank’s decision:

- Documents include internal strategy papers and risk assessments on CBDC–digital ID integration.

- The Bank claims releasing even redacted versions would inhibit free and frank discussion and “prejudice the effective conduct of public affairs.”

- Section 36 FOIA exemptions (deliberation and effective conduct of public affairs) were applied, alongside Section 41 (confidential third-party input).

- The Bank insists the public interest is already served by selected research it has chosen to publish, such as its report with MIT on “Enhancing the Privacy of a Digital Pound.”

This means that, for the second time in two years, the Bank has refused to release documents that could reveal how digital currency and identity systems may be linked in UK policy planning.

From a comment that I agree with....

CBDC's
No Privacy, No Rights.
It Will have an Expiration date - no savings
Automatic collection of govt Taxes, Fines, Tickets, Child support, bills, etc - No Appeals.
It'll be tied into your medical - If you're over weight and try to buy a soda, the transaction will be denied.
You'll automatically be 'Locked Out' if your vaccinations aren't up to date.
Everything you want to buy will have to go thru approval first.
They'll have the ability be to be shut down the system anytime.
They'll have the ability be to Freeze your account anytime.
Tied directly into a Social Credit System.
The government can deny access to services, based on your political views, shopping habits, online activity, work history, etc

They will control everything...
What you eat
What you wear
What you watch and hear
Who you're with
Where you live
Where you work
How you look and feel
And ultimately how long you live



And they will have so much control that they won't do any of this... at first.
They'll need some kind of 'crisis' before they do all of that.
Because they want your consent so they can blame YOU.
