“The roar of the greasepaint, the smell of the crowd!” Or, maybe it was the reverse. At least the presentation given by Ian Crane and NHF president Scott Tips on November 13th in Stroud, England went off without a hitch. The subject was Codex Alimentarius and the crowd numbered some 40 very-interested, very-attentive people. Hosted by Drs. Christopher Hill and Theresa Johnson, local homeopaths, this talk on Codex was announced as the first in a series of events about health and health freedom. Judging by the turnout, there was a lot of interest.

Ian Crane has recently made a name for himself by touring England and speaking out on Codex and related health-freedom issues. His website is chock-full of information on many health-freedom issues, and it does not shy away from controversy. Ian is a fighter.

Ian spoke first and gave a brilliant presentation about a number of health-freedom topics woven around Codex. His speech was then followed by Scott’s, which dealt most directly with both the past and recent happenings at Codex meetings and what the future might hold in a Codex-restrictive health world. After Scott finished speaking, Ian wrapped up the evening with closing remarks and then the two of them fielded questions from the audience. It was a jam-packed evening that stretched on longer than expected.

With the success of this event in Western England, Ian and Scott have scheduled follow-on speaking events in the same part of England near the end of January 2009. As health freedom is increasingly threatened, more people are awakening to the threat and starting to act.
