http://ThoriumRemix.com/ George Monbiot once deferred to Caldicott on matters of nuclear power and radiation. After the Fukushima disaster and a discussion with Caldicott on Democracy Now…

Dr. Helen Caldicott:
The biggest medical conspiracy and cover-up in the history of medicine, George!

George Monbiot wrote:
The anti-nuclear movement, to which I once belonged, has mislead the world about the impact of radiation on human health. The claims we made were ungrounded in science, unsupportable when challenged, and wildly wrong. We have done other people, and ourselves, a terrible dis-service. Dr. Helen Caldicott, the world's foremost anti-nuclear campaigner, has made some striking statements about the dangers of radiation. I asked for the sources. Caldicott's response has profoundly shaken me. None were scientific publications. None contained sources for the claims she'd made.

Dr. Helen Caldicott:
George Monbiot published our email exchanges in The Guardian... how dare he? So stupid. That revolting little man said [that] after Fukushima he's become pro-nuclear. He's either got a cerebral tumor or he's had a psychotic breakdown, that's my clinical diagnosis.

Gordon McDowell:
I've listened to a lot of Caldicott while editing this video.

Dr. Helen Caldicott:
Is he being paid? I do wonder. Something... something fishy is going on.
