“Not only are we tired of lockdowns, but everyone has come to understand that the approach taken by Florida and Sweden is a better approach, allowing life to continue, albeit with some restrictions.
“So it should not be taken away from us. Just to do this, we would be empowering the World Health Organization.
“They’ll be able to say, ‘There’s a global pandemic going on and you have to take care of yourself right now.’
“Brexit Britain, what was Brexit all about?” It was about taking back control.
“It was about us taking charge of these big decisions and not leaving it up to a bureaucracy, which is pretty questionable in terms of financial management.”
Mr Nigel plans to fight the WHO’s power grab by launching a petition on the government’s website.
“We’re hoping that hundreds of thousands of people will come out and say, ‘We shouldn’t do this without proper parliamentary debate,'” he said.
“The truth is, this is not being discussed yet. The WHO can be a force for good, but it is now going into territory that it should not be heading into.”
The WHO expects to reach agreement on a pandemic treaty in late May.
The Telegraph reported earlier this month that Britain was refusing to sign the deal because it feared it would undermine its sovereignty.
