Baroness Lynda Chalker will
push her de-population agenda
Executive Intelligence Review, Aug. 25, 1995, p. 64

British Overseas Development Minister Baroness Lynda Chalker is leading the British delegation to the United Nations Women's Conference in Bejing in September (1995), and intends to use the occasion to push her fanatical program for limiting population.

The London Times headline on Aug. 9 (1995) read, "Chalker Ready To Tackle Vatican on Birth Control." She is determined, says diplomatic editor Michael Binyon, not to let th Vatican "subvert" the accord reached at last year's U.N. population conference in Cairo. The Baroness, whose zeal about curbing the human population has been implemented in Rwanda with the help of such Chalker proteges as Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni, warns that  the Vatican will "probably try" to subvert the agreements reached at Cairo. "But I'm a girl guide at heart," she exclaimed. "I will be prepared for these things."

Britain is sending 100 non-governmental organizations to Beijing, for the conference itself, and a whopping 200 NGOs to the NGOs forum outside Beijing. The British NGOs are receiving some $20 million in funding  from Chalker's ministry.

In Washington, Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky, deputy chairman of the U.S. delegation gave a press briefing at the Foreign Press Center on Aug. 9 (1995). She was asked by the reported from the French weekly Nouvelle Solidarite: "Lady Chalker is the leader of Britain's delegation to Beijing. Now  there are people close to her, who have said, off the record, that the main reason for this big push for what is called "women's empowerment" is that it would reduce the population growth....Is this also the U.S. policy?" Mrs. Mezvinsky answered with a flat "No."
