Una McGurk is a Senior Counsel and barrister, known for her commitment to humanitarian causes and advocacy for free speech. Her legal career is marked by her dedication to defending individual rights and challenging government policies that she perceives as unjust or overreaching.
McGurk is an outspoken critic of various government policies and international organizations. She has voiced concerns about what she views as the government's encroachment on free speech, particularly highlighting a report from the Irish Times suggesting that criticism of government policies could be construed as "incitement to hatred." McGurk finds this interpretation disturbing and bizarre.
McGurk has been critical of international bodies such as the World Economic Forum (WEF) and other organizations based in Geneva. She has praised Swiss banker Pascal Najadi for calling out corruption within these entities.
McGurk supports efforts to challenge what she sees as the controlling elite at the WEF and similar institutions.
In 2020, McGurk publicly stated that the COVID-19 pandemic was "fake," a position that led to ridicule in media articles and contributed to her loss of employment. She continues to support this view, citing presentations by independent scientists who she believes are not influenced by pharmaceutical companies or government interests.
McGurk is a vocal supporter of Julian Assange and hopes for justice in his case. She frequently highlights the importance of free speech and has criticized Ireland's hate speech laws as tyrannical, arguing that without free speech, democracy withers.
McGurk frequently critiques Irish government policies, particularly those related to farming and public health. She believes the government is planning to surrender national sovereignty over health matters to an unelected body controlled by the pharmaceutical industry.
McGurk calls on the public to resist these measures and protect their health sovereignty.
McGurk uses her social media platform to express her views on a variety of issues, from free speech and government policies to international corruption and public health. Her tweets often reflect her stance against what she perceives as overreach by both national and international authorities.
