Fake News is the deliberate attempt to publish hoaxes and/or disinformation for profit or influence (Learn More). Sources listed in the Questionable Category may be untrustworthy and should be fact-checked on a per-article basis. Please note sources on this list are not considered fake news unless specifically written in the reasoning section for that source. See all Questionable sources.

• Overall, we rate Save Us Now as Right Biased due to its anti-government stance and skepticism toward public health policies, which align with some right-wing populist narratives. We also rate them Questionable and Low in factual reporting because they rely on unverified studies, selective sourcing, speculative content lacking mainstream scientific research support, and a failed fact check.

Analysis / Bias

Save Us Now exhibits a strong right-wing bias, especially in its opposition to government policies related to technology and public health. Articles on the site often promote theories that mainstream science disputes, such as claims that 5G technology poses serious health risks. For example, in “5G Warfare: The Weaponising Of The Urban Environment To Harm You,” the article suggests that 5G has dangerous implications for public health, a position widely considered unsubstantiated by scientific research.

Similarly, in “Covid Vaccine Scientific Proof Lethal,” the site portrays COVID-19 vaccines as harmful, opposing public health guidelines without presenting verified sources. In addition, in its “Evidence” section, the site shares studies like “Microwaves and Alzheimer’s Disease” and “Long-Term Exposure to Microwave Radiation Provokes Cancer Growth,” which suggest that microwave and mobile radiation may have adverse health effects. 

Regarding sourcing, the site often relies on studies or articles from less established or controversial sources to support its claims. By highlighting articles with speculative or fringe perspectives, such as those suggesting direct links between microwave exposure and cancer or Alzheimer’s, Save Us Now presents a one-sided view of health risks associated with technology, which lacks rigorous peer review or mainstream scientific acceptance.

Politically, under the Our Constitution section, they state their right-leaning objectives: “The Party is a democratic, libertarian Party that will create policies that promote and encourage those who wish to improve theirs and others situations and those who seek to be self-reliant, whilst providing protection for those genuinely in need;  favour the ability of individuals to make decisions in respect of themselves;  seek to diminish the role of the State; strengthen and guarantee the essential, traditional freedoms and liberties of all people in the United Kingdom,  lower the burden of taxation on individuals and businesses.”
