ANM would like to pay our respects to the late Wendy Fitzgerald who we first met when she spoke in the council chamber against the unfettered nuisance of 5G technology littering our towns, cities and countryside, which continues apace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The love for Wendy in her many roles as a public representative over 25 years, has been clearly visible in the hundreds of cards of gratitude her family has received. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deputy Lord Mayor Wendy Fitzgerald’s list of achievements is both long and transparently grounded in community life and work. As a teacher she set up her own language school, and was Governor of both Penllergaer Primary and Pontardulais Comprehensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After being a community councillor Wendy stood for Penllergaer ward in council elections in 2004 as an independent and has faced many challenges coming from the many building projects in the area including the accompanying blanket of frequency emissions. She was also on the Board of the Penllergaer Trust, as well as being a founder member of both the Ladies\u2019 Guild, Penllergaer Crafters and a successful Gardening Club. Wendy would have become Lord Mayor next year and it is to all of our loss that she now will not be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without wishing to mar these respects it is nevertheless necessary to draw attention to the fact that since her death, a non-compliant 5G mast has been suddenly erected very close to hers and other houses.
<\/p>\n\n\n

We would like to thank Wendy for being a genuine voice in the council for the health of the people of Swansea, in so many respects over many years and in becoming informed and resisting the dangerous, profligate and untested use of electro-magnetic frequencies in civilian communications and life with the introduction of 5G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With customary humour and determination, Wendy faced down ridicule from ignorant members, those who loved passing the buck upwards, and still do despite clear instructions from higher ups that councillors themselves, as being the individuals comprising the legal status of \u2018Competent Authority\u2019, are the ones who have to understand the dangers of the technology they foist upon those they are supposed to represent: people, animals, plants, and the whole environment.
<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n


They, as a council and as individuals, are the buck-stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After last summer’s absolute farce of a \u2018consultation\u2019 regarding two 5G masts to be put right in the centre of the Singleton campus for the technocratic \u20185G living lab\u2019, ordinary people would be forgiven for thinking that the legal landscape on frequency omissions has not changed, and that there are no added regulations for greedy telecoms and councils to heed. When Swansea Council is so willing to employ dishonesty in order to fend off public concern, who could blame them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the field has changed in several important ways, for example:
<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a>
The only notice the council insisted was accurate differed from all other notifications, confusing the public and councillors alike. It was hard to find and completely inaccessible to any wheelchair user.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n


Competent Authorities<\/strong> : Buck-passing on the basis of ‘We’re not experts so the government will tell us whether it\u2019s safe<\/em>\u2019 is officially no longer lawful. The UK government is merely the next layer of gate-keeping and, in its turn, tries to shunt the health and environmental effects off to the handy private gate-keeping quango in the form of ICNIRP, which Wendy herself called out heroically in the council chamber. But ICNIRP says no, they don’t cover those health effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


It is concerning that the Council, now aware of its status as safety watchdog, continues to perform all this public nuisance jiggery pokery in plain sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exclusion Zones<\/strong>: it is now formalised that mast planning and siting must factor in exclusion zones, for example, for metal implants, including hearing aids and the like. ICNIRP states these public health issues are out out of its purview and this gap puts clear responsibility for this public health element squarely on councils as the competent authority. ICNIRP certification is no longer a fig-leaf for these legally recognised dangers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ones on the university certainly breach the law in this respect, but, hey, money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new mast, as well as being ridiculously close to a dozen or so houses is actually of particular statutory nuisance to Wendy Fitzgerald’s own daughter who is electro-sensitive. She will now be forced out of her childhood home which is 500m away from the sudden mast and will be unable to care for her bereaved father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buckets of Precedents<\/strong> : The council has been made fully aware of all the emerging precedents forged by ordinary people to actually fight their own councils to get recognition of obvious and evidenced effects of these masts, which are routinely located near schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These inversions of public duty, and our tolerance of it, are why the sudden appearance of a non compliant mast less than 500m from the late Wendy Fitzgerald\u2019s house, immediately after her death, which should raise general concern, disgust and very possibly suspicion, somehow doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neither was the blatant date-fudging of last year\u2019s \u2018consultation’ re Singleton ever acknowledged by those who deployed and then weaponised the ruse. Dates, facts and evidence don’t matter, so why should the death of a true champion of the people get in the way? Why on earth didn’t they put the mast up while Wendy was still alive? She could have fought it from her death bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wendy\u2019s daughter wrote urgently to Phil Holmes, Head of Planning and City Regeneration, expressing serious concerns about the mast but the legitimacy of those evidenced concerns have been brushed aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shouldn\u2019t Phil Holmes be ashamed, as well as all other nodding, buck-passing councillors and council officials, to turn up to Wendy\u2019s memorial service, scraping and mawing, faking respect, while having knowingly allowed this vengeful flex, before Wendy Fitzgerald had even been buried?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transparent racketeering will never stand opposition and always behaves unlawfully in plain sight.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of which demonstrates emphatically that Wendy, whose ear was always close to the ground in her beloved community, was very much a cut above the rest, and is still having to work for her constituents, even here in her own tribute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you Wendy, you were a true servant of the people and you will be sorely missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n



We encourage you to watch the video of Wendy in action on 5G from 2019\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
