As Godfather to Prince William, heir to the British throne, Prince Charles chose his close friend and adviser Laurens van der Post. A paedophile.
Van der Post raped a 14 year old girl who had been given into his care for the sea voyage from South Africa to London. He then installed her in a flat in London as his mistress, but abandoned her when she became pregnant age 15 (though he sent a monthly payment). She was not the only one. The victim later stated that van der Post was “sick” and “he knew how to pick his victims”.
In a sycophantic authorised biography of then-Prince Charles written thirty years ago, Jonathan Dimbleby wrote that “for Prince Charles there was a missing dimension”, that he felt his life lacked a spiritual awareness. At age 25 Charles sought out Van der Post after reading his books, and Van der Post became his spiritual Guru. Charles continually sought his advice and absorbed his mystic teachings. Not only is Van der Post William’s Godfather, he gave marriage counselling to Charles and Diana and was a frequent guest at Highgrove, Sandringham and Balmoral. On his death Charles initiated the Van der Post Memorial Lectures, held inside St James’s Palace.
There is a question which will run throughout this article, which is how much did people know? In the 1970s and 1980s it was not public knowledge that Van der Post was a paedophile. But then Charles was not the public. Then, as now, if somebody becomes very close to the heir to the throne with frequent access to Royal palaces, they are going to be under close investigation by the security services.
I find it wildly improbable that the security services did not find out about Van der Post’s predilection for young girls and that he had been paying the expenses of an illegitimate daughter originally fathered on a young teenage mother. There is also the question of Van der Post’s wider lies. It is possibly neither here nor there that in fact Van der Post had only ever spent a fortnight with The Bushmen of the Kalahari when he penned his famous book, full of lies and plagiarism.
But that he was actually a Lieutenant (and at times acting Captain) rather than a Lieutenant Colonel as he claimed, would have been instantly discovered. It is worth noting here that Van der Post’s famous military memoir, which became the film Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence starring David Bowie, was massively embellished, not just in terms of his rank.
The Royalist defence of Charles’ associations rests, rather peculiarly, on the claim that any huckster and paedophile can just get entry to the Palace inner circle without any checks. That is just not true. What appears to be true is that paedophilia was treated as a peccadillo.
Before Van der Post, the man credited by all biographers as the greatest influence in shaping Charles’ character was his great uncle, Lord Louis Mountbatten. Born in Austria as Prince Louis of Battenberg, Charles can hardly be blamed for Mountbatten, who was thrust upon him as a child.
I hope not too literally.
Mountbatten was a paedophile, which was an open secret in upper class society – including the diplomatic service – long before his death. He benefited from the lifetime protection of the inner Royal circle, which was absolute in his lifetime. It has only become mainstream acknowledged in the past very few years.
That is deliberately phrased as “acknowledged”, not “knowledge” – there was not a Fleet Street Editor in 50 years who did not know; they just did not publish it. Mountbatten’s paedophilia was fuelled by his access to underprivileged children, from New Delhi to Rabat to Kincora Boy’s Home.
Mountbatten spent more time with Charles in his childhood and early adulthood than Charles’ own parents did, including encouraging and coaching him to have as much sex with as many “non-marriageable” girls as possible, and providing a venue for it in his homes. After he died Charles said, “Life will never be the same now that he is gone”. It is not a stretch to think that Van der Post – whom he first met four years before Mountbatten’s death – filled the emotional void.
A 1944 FBI dossier described Mountbatten as “a homosexual with a perversion for small boys”. This was two years before his appointment as Viceroy of India, where the open debauchery of the Mountbattens was an open secret in high-level Indian society.
It is worth noting that in this period his military aide-de-camp was one Willie McRae. I have always believed that the murder of McRae by the British state was related to his knowledge of Mountbatten and elite paedophile rings: in this context McRae’s ties with Irish Nationalists may be relevant, as they assassinated Mountbatten over the abuse at Kincora.
In Mountbatten’s case there is no doubt at all that the security services knew all about his paedophile, and covered for him.
So at the death of van der Post in 1996, Charles had lost two men he viewed, exclusively, as guides and spiritual mentors, and from whom he took the most intimate personal device. There is nobody else who fits this description. Both were extremely vicious and calculating paedophiles, shielded by class privilege from the consequences. So, in 1996, to whom did Charles turn as his new “mentor”?
Jimmy Savile was introduced to a 17-year-old Charles in 1966 by Mountbatten, who vouched for him. The official story is that Mountbatten had met Savile through military veteran fundraising.
You can believe that was the primary shared interest of two prolific paedophiles, if you so please.
Savile cultivated the relationship long-term, and by the 1980s was corresponding assiduously with Charles, which continued for over 20 years. Savile was yet another person to whom Charles turned for marriage counselling. In scores of letters, it is always Charles seeking Savile’s advice and adulating him. There is no record of Charles using the word “mentor” to describe his relationship with Savile, but Diana literally stated that Savile was a “sort of mentor” to Charles.
I presume I do not have to explain that Savile was throughout this period one of the most prolific paedophiles in British history. It is widely believed the royal cachet helped to protect him from prosecution. A huge amount was known to the police, to BBC managers and to various other branches of the British establishment, but Savile was untouchable.
In 2000 Charles constructed a chapel at his home at Highgrove, and a stained glass window in it commemorates Laurens van der Post. Before that window, Charles kneeled for long prayer vigils with his new spiritual guide, Bishop Peter Ball – who was also a friend of Jimmy Savile. It was Savile who introduced Ball to Charles.
Rather like Epstein, Ball was a known paedophile who had got off the first time without incarceration. He had, in 1993, accepted a police caution for a ceremony in which he had forced a 17-year-old novitiate, Neil Todd, to kneel naked in the snow for hours, whipped him, and then forced him to perform a sex act. The police also investigated at that time numerous other allegations, including two very similar ones.
The decision to caution was taken on the advice of the Crown Prosecution Service. As the Independent Inquiry into Child Abuse Report 2022 primly noted (p.378):
The first report on the Anglican Church investigation – The Anglican Church Case Studies 1. The Diocese of Chichester 2. The Response to Allegations Against Peter Ball Investigation Report – was published in May 2019. It considered the Diocese of Chichester, where there were multiple allegations of child sexual abuse, and whether there were inappropriate attempts by people of prominence to interfere in the criminal justice process after Bishop Peter Ball was first accused of child sexual offences.
I cannot, though, identify the passage referred to of the Diocese of Chichester Report.
Yet immediately after this, and for the next 17 years, Charles provided Ball with rather splendid rent-free accommodation on Charles’ estate. Ball was suspended by the Church of England as a priest and, astonishingly, Charles asked him to officiate at services and perform the Eucharist at his personal chapel in Highgrove, as reported in the Church Times. Ball was frequently in his company and was a personal guest at Charles’ 2005 wedding to Camilla.
In 2015, Charles gifted Ball £20,000. This was said to be simply a friendly gesture – exactly why is unclear. Charles is very definitely not known for personal generosity.
In 2015, Bishop Ball was finally convicted of 12 horrific instances of sexual abuse of boys and young men, all under the guise of religious ritual. Prince Charles put out a public denial that he had interfered in the 1993 decision not to prosecute. My surmise is that he had not done so directly, but rather let it be known through others. That is how it works.
The BBC actually reported that:
Ball’s court case heard that a member of the royal family – who has never been named – was among a host of public figures who supported him when he avoided charges in 1993.
The article goes on to carry this extremely over-specific and narrow denial from the Crown Prosecution Service:
The Crown Prosecution Service has publicly stated that it had neither received nor seen any correspondence from a member of the Royal Family when Ball was under investigation in 1992–93.
Note this very deliberately does not rule out a word in the ear at a function, a phone call, or – as it would be done – getting a friend known to be close to Charles to give the message.
Charles in fact in 1997, two years after his police caution, told Ball that he would directly intervene against Ball victim Neil Todd. “I will see off this horrible man if he tries anything again,” Charles wrote to Ball.
Todd did not live to see Ball ultimately convicted. He committed suicide in 2012. This was convenient for Ball, but there were plenty of other victims who testified in 2015.
I have no doubt the Royal Family will have known about Uncle Louis’s sins – he had an official entourage and was plugged in to the system. The immediate civil servants and close protection officers always know everything. I have already explained why I do not believe van der Post’s paedophilia was unknown. That goes double for Savile – about whom authorities had a huge amount of knowledge, but whose royal connections were a key part of his protection.
While there is no doubt whatsoever Charles knew about Bishop Peter Ball, Ball’s royal circle protection appears to have broken the surface.
To the best of my knowledge and belief, I do not know any paedophiles – but none of us can be absolutely certain we do not. Of one thing, however, I feel extremely confident. The four most-valued advisers in my life, the people whose advice I have most craved and to whom I have turned in times of crisis, are not all paedophiles. I should be astonished if any of them were.
You just can’t have your four closest non-official life guides as paedophiles by accident. You just can’t. It has been put to me that Charles, by nature of his role, knows vastly more people than ordinary folk. That may or may not be true (there is a counter-argument about privilege and protection). But if it were true, it does not improve things. If there is a much larger-than-normal pool from whom Charles could have chosen, it makes it even weirder he chose four prolific paedophiles.
To be clear, prolific paedophilia is extremely abnormal behaviour.
What I do not understand is why paedophilia appears so prevalent and attractive to politicians and the ruling class. People who have much more power and wealth than the rest of us, have the ability (rightly or wrongly) to get attractive adult consenting partners more easily. So why do they, apparently in disproportionate numbers, seek to prey on the young and defenceless?
It is more than time we got rid of the Medieval system of monarchy. That will not solve the corruption of corporate interests controlling the state, or redress the appalling inequality of wealth. It will not even do much to end elite class paedophilia. But as one clear demonstration of the rotten nature of British society, the tale of the King’s four paedophile mentors is extremely instructive.

It is not that paedophilia is prevalent or attractive to Politicians & the Ruling Class, it’s that having people who are predisposed to this sickness can be very easily controlled by the deep state.
It’s well known that those offended against themselves often grow up to be offenders. That explains a recurring prevalence in the Ruling Class particularly due to their Schooling system, and once it’s embedded there, then your exposed of Mountbatten and his Nephew makes it all the more understandable as to how the others around rise to the positions they achieve.
Raffi Berg, the Middle East editor of the British state broadcaster’s website and an unashamed admirer of Mossad murderers (who he says make him feel “tremendously proud”) is daring to sue Owen Jones, who has shown up the BBC’s pro-genocidalist reporting of the Gaza conflict. Berg is understood to have hired the Zionist attack dogs called “UK Lawyers for Israel”.
Imagine if a BBC editor had said C18 made him feel tremendously proud to be white, for a comparison.
Owen’s article “The BBC’s Civil War Over Gaza” is here:
https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/bbc-civil-war-gaza-israel-biased-coverage
“In addition to what they see as a collective management failure, journalists expressed concerns over bias in the shaping of the Middle East index of the BBC news website. Several allege that Berg “micromanages” this section, ensuring that it fails to uphold impartiality. “Many of us have raised concerns that Raffi has the power to reframe every story, and we are ignored,” one told me.” (…)
Berg’s influence has a ripple effect, the journalists say. While BBC broadcasters write and produce their own reports, editors and reporters across the organization frequently draw on web articles such as those edited by Berg to flesh out their stories. ”
Personally I wouldn’t wipe my arse on the BBC’s website. But apparently it’s the most visited news site on the internet. A case of “Eat sh*t. Five billion flies can’t be wrong”?
Anyway hold on to your hats because the “narrative” may shift to “Hamas are everywhere.”
BBC and government interference
I have had an argument (re: Trump now suing) with a colleague who many years ago did a feature about how BBC lost its independence over the decades. However I doubted BBC ever was – legally – independent the way US broadcasters were from government interference.
Can someone suggest definite documentation on this issue?
The BBC is just the propaganda ministry under another name, whatever the paperwork says or doesn’t say. There is no independence.
I was recently reading the Wikipedia article on “Lord” Reith. I thought what it said about the BBC during the 1926 general strike was highly amusing, but I guess if somebody doesn’t already know that the BBC acted as a government agency in taking the side of the employers against the striking workers it’s not such a hoot.
One of the early governors of the BBC was Montague Rendall, former headmaster of Winchester College. He devised the agency’s motto, “Nation shall speak peace unto nation”, code for “The British Way and Purpose Uber Alles”.
Hello AG.
The controlling document for the BBC is the Royal Charter.
The first was in 1926, and they are renewed every ten years.

Thanks for the input!
I turned my laptop on earlier and went onto Iplayer to check out if there was anything worth watching on any of the channels, and when I checked out BBC2 Newsnight was on, and had been for about 15 minutes, and the caption at the bottom of the screen read ‘Trump To Sue The BBC For A Billion Dollars’, so I clicked to watch from the start (as obviously it was gonna be the first news item they covered). If you didn’t see it, it’s worth checking out (on Iplayer). But what I REALLY wanted to draw readers attention to is the brilliant documentary that was on after Newsnight, which was very informative and enlightening, entitled Empire with David Olusoga. And it turns out there are three episodes, and all available on Iplayer.
Yes, there are many things we can criticise the BBC about in respect of it’s news output (and Panorama in some instances, for example), but I have to say that I’ve seen numerous excellent documentaries on the BBC over the years (historical and contemporary) – and exposés – and the one tonight was up there with the best of them (as I’m sure the other two episodes will be).
Dr Olusoga never disappoints and ‘Empire’ looks to be exception.
That kind of programme and the various exposés the likes of Panorama have done are the sort of things we need a public service broadcaster for.
The BBC’s role is to present itself as a scrupulous and authoritative source of Truth while promoting ‘centrist’ neoliberal and neocon commonsense, whitewashing genocide of children, hiding British participation, promoting brazen zionist ‘antisemitism’ psyops etc.
Basically manufacturing public consent for British ruling-class interests, presenting those interests as universal interests.
That’s the overriding purpose of the people who run it.
Along with most of the rest of the MSM, albeit paid for indirectly by those who they deceive and dupe and manipulate, apart from the cost of the newspaper or subscription. At least there’s no adverts on the BBC, and thank heavens for that!
The day the BBC News presenters start referring to Ken Livingstone as Red Ken and Tony Benn as Barmy Benn and Neil Kinnock as the Welsh Windbag will be the day I stop watching the BBC (apart from The Tellytubbies, that is)….. but obviously that will never happen. And needless to say most of us would be shocked and horrified if they did, and yet the likes of The Sun and The Mail and The Express and The Evening Standard have been doing so for decades, and now we’ve got GB News and Talk TV who are transforming an ever increasing number of people into fascists. I check them out from time to time just to see what they’re spouting about this, or that, and what the latest poison is that they’re spewing forth and inculcating their viewers with, and I have to force myself to keep watching for a while because it’s so hideous – ie the presenters are so hideous and malignant – I find it really REALLY hard to watch for more than a minute or two.
It is the British state’s Ministry of Propaganda, a far more insidious outfit than your other choices. That carefully-cultivated moderate, respectable image was key to its success in decades past. By the 2020s however most people understand that the BBC is fake news and are switching off.
In the four years between 2018 and 2022 alone (that is, before its Genocide coverage) there had been a 20% drop in public trust in the BBC.
https://pressgazette.co.uk/news/times-telegraph-trust/
That’s why social media has started to be flooded with Orwellian ads saying ‘Our’ BBC is fighting to bring us the Truth.
CommercialPrivateEquitybbc is full of adverts, they call them ‘trailers’, they product place, they boycott competitors’ products, take money from the FO and the US govt, bend and twist what they do report and crawl up the arses of the Windsor crime family. Everything about it is an advert. Stop watching it (except for the occasional mistaken moment) and see how it is indistinguishable from ITV circa 1986.
And ditto most MSM newspapers, whose ciculation in general has halved in the past six years (scroll down to see figures):
List of newspapers in the United Kingdom by circulation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_newspapers_in_the_United_Kingdom_by_circulation
Zoot – exactly that. And to interfere in referendums, obviously.
(See; the “Vote No Borders” group of wealthy London-based PR people who’s 10 minute happy-clappy piece was fronted by “Scottish” hack Gavin Esler and repeated on the main BBC News channel on the hour, every hour in the days leading up to September 18th 2014).
David Olusoga, hmm. Let me guess it was all the fault of whitey ?
The three documentaries are about the British Empire, so your guess is indeed correct.
The Sun appears to be signalling that it will support Trump’s demand that the BBC pay him £1bn.
A case of “None dare call it treason”?

The Murdoch press have had it in for the BBC for years.

Driven by Murdoch’s greed and ambition rather than any ideological or political considerations.
Let’s hope Trump can fatally injure the corrupt organisation, something the British government has avoided since its inception. The only solution for the BBC is to terminate all state funding.
I suspect that your wish will, if granted, be found to be akin to a prisoner on a ship bound for Botany Bay hoping that the vessel hits an iceberg
It really has no friends other than Blairite centrists. The infuriating aspect is how those who are not on the right, have known how woeful its coverage is for decades. Here are just few of its worst excesses:
– The Billy Mitchell scandal garnered little journalistic interest. He broke Question Time’s own guest rules by repeatedly appearing, and was filmed by a fellow audience member, standing chatting to guest Tory politician Baron Forsyth, and show’s editor, prior to the show, as if coordinating. After the scandal grew, Billy claimed to be part of a much bigger conspiracy, which he threatened to blow the lid on, but then he went to ground.
– The Panorama special : Is Labour anti-Semitic? Which allowed staffers to make statements that have since been contradicted by recorded audio, played in Al Jazeera’s revelations in its Labour Files.
– The Question Time election specials(2017 and 2019), in which Corbyn was hounded by an angry group of ruddy-faced old soldier types, about whether he’d press the ‘big red button’ (nuclear). Even the audience were booing and jeering them as they piled on.
– Laura Kuenssberg reporting prior to the 2019 GE about postal vote opening sessions, that were “looking grim” for Labour. 2019’s postal vote was decisive. It’s reported as high as 37% of total votes cast! It’s really suspicious as well :
Johnson(2019) 13,966,454
Sunak(2024) 6,828,925
How does a party lose that many votes in four years?
– The Scottish referendum coverage in 2014 and build up – completely unhinged in its pro-Union bias.
In an age of streaming, gaming and social media competing for our attention, it’s outrageous the colour licence fee is going over £180 per year in the budget. That’s over a thousand quid every six years for the poorest! How can you justify an hypothecated TV tax going to one provider, in an age of media competition?
Stop paying the telly tax and watch things that are worth the bother. You can find TradBBC and ITV documentaries from the 60s and 70s that are worth a damn.
In other media news.
Reading about the EU’s ‘Shield of Democracy’ – an appalling idea. They want Ukraine as an active member, monitoring alleged mis/disinfo. Euractiv are typically supportive of everything EU and Ukraine. But look at this story today, which the BBC, Guardian; Times, Telegraph et al, are all either studiously ignoring or downplaying:
https://www.euractiv.com/news/ukraine-anti-graft-agency-raids-energy-sector-as-corruption-standoff-escalates/
NABU said it had uncovered a “high-level criminal organisation” based on securing kickbacks from contracts awarded by major nuclear power provider Energoatom.
Releasing audio recordings of alleged perpetrators discussing the scheme, it said around $100 million had passed through a money-laundering operation set up to funnel proceeds.
The raids came months after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tried to strip powers from both NABU and the anti-corruption prosecutor’s office, triggering a rare public backlash and the largest protests since the start of the Russian invasion in February 2022.
This is Zelensky and his inner circle. Would their defenders here, care to comment?
This corruption scandal is really serious, it could be terminal for Zelenskyy politically, as Ukrainians are ultra-sensitive to corruption in peace time, having endured lots of it. During the hardship of war, it’d be simply too much to take for this war weary nation. Look at the protests when he tried to close this anti-corruption agency down.
What would his western backers do: Starmer, Macron , Stubb ; Rutte(NATO), von der Leyen, Kallas (EU)?
I’d guess, if he looks like going down, they’ll come up with plan : claim he’s been killed in a Russian attack, or at the hands of an assassin on Putin’s orders : Russian poisoning(novichok?) or shooting? They will find some way of turning the propaganda tables.
Zelenskyy will be whisked off to restart afresh, in New Zealand – like the Skripals reportedly did – new neighbours perhaps? Or somewhere remote, with a new identity and his loot. All a geopoltical game to lying leaderships.
‘How does a party lose that many votes [circa 7 million] in four years?’
Around 3 million went to Reform, Goose (most Tory voters couldn’t vote for Farage in 2019 as the Brexit Party didn’t put up candidates in their seats), a couple hundred thousand might have gone to Labour (people like to back winners), around a million Tory voters died (not least of Covid), and the rest didn’t bother to vote (mostly due to being appalled at the Tories’ antics over those four years). There’s no real mystery.
Just for reference:
Turnout at the 2019 General Election was 67.3% across the UK, a decrease of 1.5 percentage points from 2017 (68.8%)
Turnout for the Brexit referendum 23 June 2016 was 72.2%
I’m not claiming Sunak’s 6.8 m in 2024 was especially low , merely that Johnson’s 2019 tally of 13,966,454 was absurdly high for a December election. Johnson was a controversial ‘marmite’ figure before the election remember, and the Tories had been in office just under ten years(a point at which govts are usually on the ropes). It’s staggering to me, therefore, that so many decisively made him PM. The postal vote was huge in a way it never has been before, or since – in 2024’s GE, 19% of all votes were postal votes.
Thanks for your reply Goose. Johnson’s tally in 2019 wasn’t absurdly high – it was perfectly in line with the polling:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_United_Kingdom_general_election#/media/File:UK_opinion_polls_2017-2019.svg
Turnout was fairly high despite it being December, because many people had convinced themselves to back Boris so he’d have a substantial majority to deliver Brexit, which they believed was the most important issue facing the country*. As many of them didn’t want to walk to the polling stations in winter when the weather could be bad, they got postal votes instead.
* The Brexit Party, whose only policy was to deliver a hard Brexit, peaked at an average of 24% in the polls in summer 2019. That’s only about 6 points less than the highs its successor Reform UK is enjoying now, despite the latter benefitting from the Overton window in media-land having shifted significantly to the right, the Tories having failed utterly in their last stint in government – not least resulting in more arrivals having come to the UK from what used to be called the third world in the four years 2021-24 than in the *entire second half of the 20th century* – and Labour seemingly not being able to fix any of it and imploding under their charisma vacuum of a leader.
I can see that this post is an attack on King Charles for hypocrisy towards his brother, but as always Craig takes for granted his own childhood in the bosom of a large extended family . Windsor Royal males had neither an extended , loving family , nor any intrinsically deep bond with their mother because of her official role.
I went to a good boarding school aged seven, having established a permanent, unbreakable bond with my mother and father which lasted all her 86 years. The Windsor Royal Household was steeped in fake exceptionalism that was both Foreign and Antique. How is any child supposed to flourish uncherished by family and in a country and culture which is different to its own family culture?
In a boarding school, you no longer belong to your home family, and you are reminded of that fact whenever you are allowed home. Your family is your school. You are never with your school family when you visit your blood family which has closed its bonds to you. I cannot stop myself detesting both Christmas and Easter to this day. I spent my time at home making things by hand, which I very much doubt Windsor Royal children would ever be allowed to do.
The last relic of Christianity in Britain is not to be judgemental. So I will not be judgemental about Craig’s inability to empathise.
The last relic of Christianity in Britain is not to be judgemental. So I will not be judgemental about Craig’s inability to empathise.
Interesting perspective, Giyane, on a culture in the throes of suicidal empathy.
Remind me. You yourself are not Christian, are you?
I am sorry, Giyane, that your youth was unhappy. I went to boarding school just after my 9th birthday, and attended that and another school for 9 years before going to university. I wasn’t unhappy – not even for the first few hours and days – and when I went home for holidays I enjoyed them thoroughly. My parents understood that the world of school was very different from their world, and did what they could to cushion the landing. Their main concern was that I should be “socialised”, also educated. While nothing in this world is perfect, the outcome was apparently acceptable.
Thanks for your reply. I was always happy at school.
But I did develop some self- destructive coping mechanisms. Now in Islam, I have the sort of stable marriage that cures those habits over the years , combined with string criticism from.a very unsympathetic self-appointed Mullah community that witnessed the excesses of the British Raj.
If I was Andrew now, and my big brother was busy disconnecting me from the Royal Family, I would both agree with the criticisms from the police officers who have described my appalling past behaviour, and also kiss my brother’s feet for finally extricating me from the utterly poisonous institution of the Royal Family
Giyane, Do you believe that Charles Mountbatten Windsor has converted to Islam?
FID.DEF.
I think King Charles thinks that Islam is one of his ancient Royal Prerogatives, which he is happy to delegate to his MI6 arm.
Giyane,
Was that an answer, or a witty evasion?
Personally I believe he´s one of yours. What do you think?
Do you defend him as a fellow member of your tribe?
@Tom – Glad to hear you got through it. Many are severely damaged. “Wasn’t unhappy” isn’t very strong praise though when we are talking about a 9yo. Also I am not sure of the meaning of the word “socialised” here. Why does living in a residential institution that contains a school “socialise” a child more than going to a school 9am-4pm or whatever and living at home – or being home-educated for that matter? I realise it socialises them differently…
We are talking about King Charles, right?

Published on August 1, 2025, this document is the definitive research by the UK Parliament of Royal Prerogative powers.
That is, the powers held by King Charles III in his own right as king.
The document runs to more than one hundred pages. The Sovereign´s powers are wide and profound and, as the document freely confesses, impossible to define. They are, in fact, unconstrained, which is the very opposite of the slop we are routinely fed about the king or queen having no power. But by now, we have all learned not to trust the media about anything.
The entire document is well worth reading for the insights provided about why our world is not working as it should. But as I say above, this post by Mr Murray is about King Charles, his upbringing and the fate of children. So I´d like to point out some of the archaic (but still extant and potent) powers held by the British king, and his legal prerogatives.
If you look at the three areas bolded, you will see that King Charles III has the right to the guardianship of infants, the right to waifs and strays, and is not bound by statute (ie the law). That strikes me as the perfect foundation for the routine abuse of the young.
@John Cleary, it’s worth looking at the activism of the likes of Josephine Butler and WT Stead and the scandals that provoked the public pressure for ending child prostitution/sex trafficking and raising the age of consent in England to 16. The connection to Belgium is significant, as its King Leopold II (of Congo mega-atrocities infamy), was apparently charged with sex offences against an underage girl in London, but the charges were dropped. I suppose it helped that Leopold’s cousin was Queen Victoria (and her husband Albert).
Well, class endogamy in a small pool will tend towards inbreeding, and what behavioural effects might come from that?
I think that you’ll find that those prerogative powers are exercised in practice by the Prime Minister and are limited by the Coronation Oath Act 1688 (the one that made England a republic).
Personally I find it quite amazing that people are so blasé when confronted with hard evidence of their rotten, corrupt system. To the extent that the system ever worked at all, it relied on a healthy respect for and belief in the Christian God. We are now ruled by a man with no such respect and belief, and who believes that what really matters is to obtain the right sort of olives from Israel. What value is such a man’s Coronation Oath? Sworn as it is to a God in which he no longer believes.
What evidence have you that the Prime Minister has usurped the powers of the Sovereign? Does the Sovereign swear an (enforceable) oath of allegiance to the Prime Minister, or is it the other way around?
Did you actually read the document before pronouncing?
And your view of what happened in 1688 is certainly novel. I thought it marked the transition from the Republic of Cromwell to the Monarchy of Charles II. Always happy to learn something new.
England hasn’t been chris since the Reformation and hasn’t been proddy since the 1850s. The Coronation Oath Act 1688 requires the person to swear to rule by the will of Parliament i.e. parliament is sovereign and the King is a “King”, an overpaid caretaker.
The Glorious Revolution (1688–89) was a pivotal event in English history that resulted in the overthrow of the Catholic King James II and the ascension of his Protestant daughter Mary II and her husband William of Orange. This revolution, often referred to as the “Bloodless Revolution,” marked a significant shift from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy, establishing Parliament as the ruling power in England. The Glorious Revolution laid the foundation for modern democracy in Britain, ensuring that the monarchy could not govern without the consent of Parliament.
“a significant shift from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy”
No, a de facto republic, England-Britain has never been a democracy.
Ownership of land covered by public navigable rivers is an interesting one.
See also “King’s Consent” and “Prince’s Consent”, the former sometimes wrongly confused with Royal Assent. Nobody talked about the consent procedures for generations, but they didn’t go away. This is when the monarch and his eldest son wearing his Duchy of Cornwall hat get prior notice of intended government legislation in case it might affect their financial interests.
Then there is the question of why does the regime have two separate government bodies, both of which are concerned with coordinating ministries – namely the Cabinet Office and the much less mentioned Privy Council Secretariat.
Note that both the consent procedures and the coordination of ministries require the provision of information – high-level information at an early stage. High-level information about policies and laws that relate to large sums of money and the ability to rake them in.
The current king is of low intelligence and cocky and narcissistic personality-disordered with it – a combination that suggests he may at some point hurt himself, assuming that the syphilis that caused his sausage fingers doesn’t finish him off.
He was lucky that some adults were around when he inherited that fancy seat in Westminster Abbey and the famous hat with the stolen jewels in it. It was reported that he was going to do things a bit differently from his mother. He was going to be more “hands on” with his government, and to show everyone the new deal he was going to appear in several places around the country together with his prime minister, Liz Truss. (I’m not sure where these were, or whether Glastonbury Tor was involved.) Clearly somebody told his toothpaste squeezer to have a word, or got him to sit still for five minutes to look at an explanation using pictures or something, the message being “Listen, There’s how things are, and there’s what you say in public, and they’re not the same, okay, your majesty”. Or “You’re the king of the castle by grace of God and you can do whatever you like, for sure, but your brand involves a promise of continuity – do you understand?”
Two points, Brian.
When you have absolute power, and are surrounded by functionaries having sworn oaths of allegiance, you can tell those functionaries to use a different form of words for different parts of your Prerogatives. After all, it’s as well to keep the oicks confused and uncertain.
The regime does not have two separate government bodies. The Cabinet Office is nothing more than the executive committee of the privy council. Thus when Peter Mandelson was appointed as Minister without Portfolio in the Cabinet Office in 1997 he was working directly for Queen Elizabeth. It is my personal belief that it was during this period that the ¨grooming gangs¨ were turbocharged throughout the northern strongholds of the Labour Party. If you study the biography of Mandelson you will see that he was the perfect choice to irredeemably corrupt the Labour Party in the country. And a quorum of the privy council amounts to three persons, one of whom must naturally be the Sovereign, so it’s really not difficult to keep it all quiet.
And where did you get that tidbit about sausage fingers and syphilis?
@Brian Red, one of the functions of the Privy Council is to run what is left of the British Empire (which doesn’t have representation of its own). The Chagos Islands saga, the annexation of Rockall and perhaps the 1975 Australian constitutional crisis (The Dismissal) are relevant case studies.
In David Olusoga’s BBC documentary series Empire, a researcher has found evidence that the British Empire’s Operation Legacy continued on at least into the 1990s (a couple of decades after earlier assumptions about when this top secret cover-up of imperial crimes and atrocities was supposed to have been wound up).
I have wondered what kinds of people were picked for such bureaucratic evil, but I guess one answer would be: people who have such secrets themselves.
I just read this on JPTi’s News page, which went up yesterday;
Salvo/Liberation has fired JPTi.
The key excerpt;
“On 18 October 2025, pursuant to the Phase II Memorandum of Understanding with LS and Salvo, JPTi submitted its draft report outlining the outcomes of the mission, summarising its advocacy achievements in New York and Geneva, and proposing a strategic roadmap for continued engagement with the United Nations in both headquarters. Only a few hours later, JPTi unexpectedly received a letter of termination from Liberation Scotland -sent without any prior consultation, discussion, or warning.”
This was three weeks ago! Where does this leave Scotland’s Petition?
The linked document gives JPTi’s side of the story; What is Salvo/Liberation’s?
Hi X. I’m afraid the above isn’t the ” key excerpt “. Obviously, at this stage all we have is JPTi’s side of the story, but if even half of that is accurate, it’s a pretty damning indictment of our side. I can’t express how awful this turn of events has made me feel; just when it appeared some progress was being made it all blows-up in our faces.
I can only hope there will be mitigating explanations forthcoming from our representatives and that JPTi’s version of events is not the entire story.
Christ!! Will we ever experience anything in our pursuit of national liberation other than a constant blizzard of body blows?
It seems fairly obvious to me that these are the opening salvos ( with the biggest gun – Trump ) attempting to take over the narrative for the future lies to come.
Israel groupings/backers are already in train to take over the US News media and the UK and Europe will not escape a similar fate.
The Internet is already set up by rich sycophants – that is almost done.
Fortunately AI is apparently not all that it is cracked up to be and seems to be no use to what I would call ‘Proper Firms.’
The Tale of ‘Turmoil at the BBC ‘ that Fragrant Fiona talked of on the 6pm News wasn’t described as that prior to Trumps’s intervention.
Very sloppy editing from Left Liberals I think – a bit like Europe’s petty slight at supporting a Two State Solution in Palestine because Trump has backed of from backing them -backing Ukraine.
The EU leaders don’t mean it – it is just to spite the US led by Trump – not Biden or Harris.
The tale of the tape as they say seems to be some Reform Pro trump poodle hack at the BBC on a committee has let it be known that the BBC have Dissed Donald and you know Trump’s penchant for revenge.
I’ll have to use some cynical logic here:
ITV is being taken over by Sky.
The current government still has a very big majority and can prevent that happening in terms of Monopoly Laws etc.
I know – you all know that the Labour Ministers have a record of folding like a napkin when it comes to taking on the US and Israel ( see the coverage of the Genocide in Gaza for details ).
So what chance does the BBC have with ‘supporters ‘ like that?
This is a chance for the UK MAGA supporters to privatise the BBC and interestingly a few people whom you may have been forgiven in assuming they are dead are now going to jump on the BBC’s crap bandwagon.
They will come out little by little.
No great fan of the BBC but I am an ever less r bigger fan of Trump- Israel – MAGA the lot.
The bad news in all of this is that these Zionist Christians and Zionist Israeli’s are all in on totally capturing the News aspects of the BBC Worldwide.
The Powers that really be know they are going to do some very nasty things when their respective economies don’t grow and they will use the news outlets to get those watching to punch down at the poor – not up at the rich.
It makes me wonder also what they have in mind in Gaza and Palestine for the future in order to still give credence to the Israeli Genocide.
A captive media -for a captive audience.
You know the irony though – if the BBC is Privatised the same right wingers now who are moaning about bias will claim that now because it’s privatised only the truth is exhibited to the audience.
British Truth Central.
Some at the FCO are probably biting the Axminster carpet regarding ongoing USA-BBC events. It’s quite funny that nobody wants to hear from Genocide Boy in No.10 about it all, or from the embarrassingly stupid David Lammy who thinks Red Leicester is a blue cheese and Marie Antoinette was a scientist.
I will need trouser clips if Trump claims Rockall. Ditto if he says he will accept Rockall in lieu of a billion US dollars in compensation for the BBC saying he went violent-crazy on Hang Mike Pence day. All he needs to do is to put out a tweet showing Rockall connected with other nearby rocks, as part of a largely artificial Chinese-style island with a Trump casino on it, lots of hoardings showing his face, and of course some facilities for US warships.
Hopefully the BBC will defend the case and subpoena Pence. It’s part of the US vice president’s job to stay informed on where the president is and what he’s doing, so I’m sure Pence could give some useful evidence. This is especially if Trump says he was encouraging everyone to hold hands and sing “Kum ba yah” … rather than the truth, which is that he was demanding that metal detectors be removed so that fascist thugs carrying semi-automatic rifles could prevent the announcement of his election loss. “Take the f*cking mags away” were his words. That’s going to look great in court when his lawyers argue the BBC has damaged the poor darling’s reputation.
Back in the real world, though, the BBC will do everything they’re damn well told by the FCO, who will do everything they’re told by the Occupation embassy, including enabling the Occupation to tighten its grip on whatever the Occupation seeks to tighten its grip on.
“All Trump needs to do is to put out a tweet showing Rockall connected with other nearby rocks, as part of a largely artificial Chinese-style island with a Trump casino on it, lots of hoardings showing his face, and of course some facilities for US warships.”
To coin a phrase: “Russia, if you’re listening”.
Russian state disinformationists reading this – please go for it. Rockall. Trump. US Navy. Tweet. Simples. Pull a few strings to get the New York nutter in the White House to post the image on Truth Social. Best opportunity for five minutes of effective anti-NATO propaganda work since NATO was f*cking founded!
We had Mandelson relieved of his duties as Ambassador; then immediately afterwards Trump’s State Visit to the UK; then Reform seemed to have wind/big money in their sails; then men of fighting age started to shin up lampposts to remind people to be patriotic; then the furore about (Formerly Known As Prince) Andrew erupted years after the allegations were first publicised; and now this very Trumped-up BBC row. It’s starting to look like Daphne Du Maurier’s Rule Britannia was only half a century out with her story of a US takeover. And note how in every recent incident I have mentioned, the British authorities and their allegedly vigorous media have rolled over, barely even trying to counter the quite flimsy allegations and actions of the Americans. Let’s hope our people are playing the long game rather than being as cowardly and incompetent as it is starting to look like. And perhaps it is all in a way tied up with the curious case of the assassination of Lord Louis Mountbatten in 1979, and character assassination since, by a terrorist organisation which were, by all accounts, often infiltrated by British authorities.
“Playing the long game”?
If you think that, it’s the triumph of hope over experience!
It’s a really difficult situation when it’s not clear whether to play the long game or the short game. And then there are the financial markets…
Goodness knows what’s going on behind the scenes. Lavrov seems to be egging Trump on against the BBC. (One can only hope that someone draws his attention to Rockall.) Some here have reported that the Zionists are seriously stepping up their expenditure on influencing the media… There seem to be powerful examples of precisely this going on. It’s not clear what will happen next, but the international stabilisation force hasn’t entered Gaza yet. Starmer-Lammy silence is remarkable.
Why has the British regime not appointed a new ambassador to the USA since Mandelson was sacked two months ago?
Another question is why are Starmer and Lammy keeping so quiet during possibly the most serious problem in British-USA relations since the 1956 Suez war?
@Brian Red, Peter Mandelson was withdrawn, not sacked. It’s a royal prerogative power. I imagine Mandelson might still be pulling down a civil service salary, as per contract.
Could a rift be developing between the Trump and Starmer administrations, it would appear Trump’s bellicose rhetoric and his moving major naval assets close to Venezuela including the largest aircraft carrier in the US fleet ‘the Gerald Ford’ has startled the UK government and might appear to want to distance themselves from a clearly illegal action. Of course the UK government has refused a Venezuelan request to repatriate $2 billion dollars worth of gold in the Bank of England vaults, because they do not recognize Maduro as the legitimate president.
“Just as the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group entered Caribbean waters on Tuesday, it’s been revealed that the United Kingdom has made the unprecedented and provocative move of cutting off intelligence-sharing with the United States related to suspected drug trafficking vessels off Venezuela.
CNN reports Tuesday that Britain cited that it does not want to be complicit in ongoing US military strikes against alleged drug-trafficking boats, as it believes the action is illegal, amounting to extrajudicial killings, also after recent criticisms from United Nations officials”.

If MI6 has still got any officers who aren’t in a foreign country’s pocket, they must be absolutely f*cking furious with the USA government right now.
If the BBC is forced to take a pro-Occupation line even in its Arabic-language services, that will seriously screw with MI6’s recruitment capability in the Middle East and North Africa – and quite possibly damage its retention capability too. And now Trump is giving the BBC a good kicking. Well the BBC is a major part of the British global brand. True that it has long cooperated with the CIA, but nonetheless the British elite won’t want it looking weak.
What happens if Trump invades Venezuela? Admiral Alvin Hosley, head of the US Southern Command, has already announced that he will “take early retirement”, reportedly over the Caribbean buildup. Having a war in America that Trump can feed US soldiers into and bring their dead bodies out of doesn’t count as sane miitary aim. Perhaps Trump is jealous that Putin and Zelensky have a war going on.
Meanwhile, Wes Streeting who could quite possibly take over from Starmer has a long record of receiving money from the Occupation. Anybody sensible could have told Starmer that even saying the Zionists have a right to turn the water supply off to 2 million civilians is no protection against him getting binned if when they give him his next order he kicks up a fuss – or even if they just want to replace him. He is sh*t on their shoes, basically – an attitude once eloquently ascribed to Ghislaine Maxwell. Starmer can roll over for the Occupation as much as he wants, he could even pay someone to remove his foreskin, but he’ll always be a gentile.
” men of fighting age started to shin up lampposts to remind people to be patriotic”
Looks like the flags were done from the back of a flat back truck judging by the uniformity of their heights.
Yes, the British spooks could have turned a blind eye while the IRA did Mountbatten.
There was a story that Mountbatten was bumped off by the Security Services and not the IRA…One of the alleged IRA bombers – was doing time in Durham jail at the time of the bombing…

Occupation national security minister Itamar Ben Gvir (a guy who incidentally has been convicted by Occupation authorities of supporting terrorism) brought a tray of sweets into the Occupation’s parliamentary chamber, so that he and his thuggish pals could have a party to celebrate the progress of a bill allowing courts to sentence Palestinians to death:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/R4FHGerxOIA?feature=share
As far as I know, he hasn’t done this before. There must be something about this particular bill that makes him ecstatic.
It is grotesque. I hope the video will strengthen the case for sanctions against Israeli apartheid. I’ve written to my MP accordingly.
After reading Craig Murray’s article on Charles Windsor’s curious friendships with paedophiles – as curious as some women being attracted to gay men (the US actor / singer Liza Minnelli comes to mind, probably because her father Vincente Minnelli was supposed to have been a closet homosexual) – I am curious to know if the Australian / British entertainer Rolf Harris had also been a close friend of Charles.
He was commissioned to paint the Queen on her 80th birthday. An odd choice to say the least. Whether it was cover for mentoring I don’t know.
Several “businessmen” closely associated with Volodymyr Zelensky have been accused of corruption in Kiev.
They include Timur Mindich, associate of both Ihor Kolomoisky and Zelensky himself. All three share a minority ethnicity.
This is being reported in the MSM as to do with “energy”. This means principally nuclear energy.
Mindich got prior wind he was about to be arrested and went off somewhere. That’s the story anyway.
Naturally the “anti-corruption investigators” (sounds like a cushy number in such a country) are coming across all big-b*llocked, but AIUI somebody released some phone calls. Nice job, whoever it was.
There apparently was an energy kickback scheme to the tune of US$100 million involving Energoatom, a state-run company that runs Ukraine’s four nuclear power plants to supply electricity. Suppliers to Energoatom had to pay kickbacks of 10 to 15% of contract values, or the company would block payment for supplies or services delivered, or use other suppliers.
Corruption scandal rocks Ukraine: Zelensky’s close associate flees country hours before police raids targeting 70 properties, at least $100 million stolen
It is perhaps no coincidence that this scandal erupts into the open just at the very time when Russia is targeting Ukraine’s electricity grid networks.
There’s another scandal being investigated as well by NABU, this one involving Ukrainian defence minister Rustem Umerov who was pressured into accepting cheap Chinese-made bulletproof vests (which failed testing) at inflated prices. Umerov has hightailed off somewhere as well.
Since I posted recently about some Hollywood supporting Gaza now this, which shouldn´t surprise:
“Paramount ‘Blacklisting’ Hollywood Figures Critical of Gaza Genocide”
https://scheerpost.com/2025/11/11/paramount-blacklisting-hollywood-figures-critical-of-gaza-genocide/
“(…)
The statement came in response to a pledge by Film Workers for Palestine, endorsed by over 4,000 actors and directors—including Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Tilda Swinton, Javier Bardem, and Olivia Colman—to boycott Israeli film institutions accused of complicity in genocide and apartheid.
The group rejected Paramount’s portrayal of the initiative, saying the pledge targets institutions, not individual artists.
“We hope the studio is not intentionally misrepresenting the pledge in an attempt to silence our colleagues in the film industry,” the collective said.
(…)”.
So yes it doesn´t change anything either way.
On the other hand any such star movie actor – who is more a tiny CEO of a company heading dozens of a team evolving around her or him – has to make the decision whether or not take a side vis á vis colleagues who you might be working with closely in the near future for months. Sort of a weird problem.
The unbelievable level of rot and corruption in Britain keeps surfacing. We’re told by TPTB that everything is hunky dory but that just ain’t so:
“Husband – possibly the most prolific sex offender in British criminal history. The scale of offending would surpass even the likes of Jimmy Savile, with the prison ombudsman’s investigation revealing that the ‘voracious’ sexual predator would often target two or three young men every day during his 16 years at Medomsley.
More than 2,000 young men and boys say they were sexually and physically abused at the former Victorian orphanage over nearly three decades. And the appalling crimes were covered up to such an extent that Husband was even given the Imperial Service Medal for his role in prison services and was welcomed into a church as a minister.
Victims also claimed they were taken to a ‘posh house’ to be abused by Husband and several other men. One claimant said the magistrate who sent him to Medomsley was present at the house. It is alleged a local serving prison officer was also involved in the abuse. ”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15283039/prolific-sex-offender-British-history-probe-paedophile-ring-magistrates-police-detention-centre.html
Meanwhile, we are told grooming gangs don’t exist, but …
“Seven men have been charged with more than 40 offences as part of an investigation into group-based child sexual exploitation. The charges relate to 11 victims, who were all teenagers at the time of the alleged offences, which reportedly occurred between 2022 and 2025.” They all appear to be good ‘Welsh Choirboy’ stock !

So the “State of Israel” doesn’t only have a controller’s office at the “B”BC, then, occupied by Raffi Berg.
It also has a controller’s office in No. 10 Downing Street, occupied by Morgan McSweeney, a man who “stayed on a kibbutz”.
This is beyond just running the “nudge unit”, or putting someone like Theresa May in, who’d had a long history of cooperating with the Community Security Trust and who had dinner with the chief rabbi hours before she became prime minister. It’s beyond even having Boris Johnson, another man who’d “stayed on a kibbutz”, in the prime minister’s job. Everyone knows Johnson is a lazy bastard. This is directly occupying the office of the prime minister’s chief of staff.
What other term is there for this but ZOG?
The question as to whether Starmer has confidence in McSweeney is the wrong way around entirely. It doesn’t matter what the idiot Starmer has or doesn’t have confidence in. He doesn’t seem to have any power whatsoever. Muskite fascists put flags up lamp posts, and this dickhead of a prime minister reckons he needs some flags too. I doubt someone who has been made to appear so weak will last until the May elections.
Ich bin ein zionist Starmer was placed into power by zionists and their money, he is an Israel first-er, he is a traitor. He will only be replaced if another more suitable zionist comes along, then Trump will step in to crown that new traitor. Any deviation from ‘the agenda’ will not be tolerated. ‘Your Party’ needs to take note of what happened in Australia 50 years ago, though it may be too late as Corbyn appears to have been turned.

Not difficult now to understand Starmer’s weird preoccupation, in opposition, with changing the rules governing leadership elections. It requires around 80 MPs to stick their heads above the parapet and come out in favour of a challenger – risky, given what he lacks in charisma he makes up for in vindictiveness. It used to be the far more reasonable 10%, which would’ve allowed someone vaguely leftist to stand. Besides thresholds, he also tried to dump OMOV in favour of MPs alone deciding.
MPs were vetted as candidates of course – presumably for anti-Israel views – Starmer employed an Israeli spy shortly after winning the leadersjhip, Assaf Kaplan, of Unit 8200, and put him in charge of social media. You can imagine them working to delve through social media histories for each and every candidate , so the PLP today is largely reflective of his Labour HQ Zionist fixers; some constituency parties were suspended without notice, with Zionist candidates imposed from London. It’s a despicable anti-democratic party. And yes, they tried, and failed, to remove Zarah Sultana in 2022. Zarah however won through, with 90% support from her local party.
Getting rid of both of these big parties will be difficult, but worth it. They are beyond saving.
I personally think there ought to be rule that stipulates you have to have been born within a certain radius of the constituency you wish to represent. Or at least in the same county (England). Far too many London-born MPs, representing areas they have no natural affinity with.
It brought a distinct taste to the mouth when London-based Labour HQ tried to impose a once and future Big Pharma lobbyist, with whom doubtless they had wonderful rapport, on Blaenau Gwent, a successor constituency to Ebbw Vale. Local socialists told them, “We chose Nye Bevan as our candidate. We chose Michael Foot. I think we can be trusted to choose a good candidate this time too, don’t you?” Of course this kind of thing means nothing to the marketing scum from HQ. Most of them probably don’t know Ebbw Vale from their own elbows, or which side won the Spanish civil war. It was good to see local socialists put up their own candidate against the imposed one – and win.
There is no good reason for any humanitarian person to vote Labour while Starmer is the leader. Or Streeting for that matter, or anyone else implicated on the anti-Corbyn ZOG-helper side.
Morgan McSweeney’s background is quite odd for a No.10 staffer. He’s from the southernmost and largest county in Ireland, County Cork. And his family fought for Irish independence. Not the usual fast-tracked Oxbridge high-flyer. Though most of them are of poor quality – all convoluted theory and no basic common sense.
Wiki: He immigrated to London in 1994 aged 17, initially working on building sites and later attempting university, though he dropped out within 12 months. He spent several months living in the Sarid kibbutz in Israel in the late 1990s. He tried university a second time at age 21, studying marketing and politics at Middlesex University.
On face value, he appears to bring little by way of outstanding intellect or ability. The only thing that stands out to win favour with Starmer – Starmer being openly Zionist – is that time spent at the kibbutz in Israel.
If I might beg the mods’ indulgence…
I have received three separate strange contacts in the past few days, smelling distinctly of “undercover” interest.
Irish and USA connections as well as British.
“Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action”.
So if anything happens to me…………
Ursula von der Leyen wants to set up an EU version of the CIA.
https://tfiglobalnews.com/2025/11/12/eu-builds-its-own-cia-von-der-leyens-new-spy-unit-sparks-uproar-as-more-centralization-of-power-in-brussels-at-the-cost-of-the-sovereignty-of-european-countries/
This is where getting too involved in Ukraine naturally leads. She and Kallas have been key proponents of the idea for the confiscation of hundreds of billions in frozen Russian state sovereign wealth. A move that’s both in defiance of international law, and worse, it’s not even for reconstruction in Ukraine. It’s set to fund advanced weaponry purchases from European and US arms suppliers – weapons that’ll presumably be used to kill Russian troops.
They are probably rightly starting to get scared by the audaciousness and enormity of such a decision; a decision taken without the protection of sophisticated security apparatus and intel agencies. I would too in their position. When talking about stealing hundreds of billions from a state like Russia, is any politician safe? They are going to be looking over their shoulders for the rest of their lives.
EUSSR needs it’s own KGB. They are already collecting biometrics of ‘anyone’ entering the dictatorship.
Also, don’t forget it was the UK (BOE) that confiscated/stole Venezuela’s gold. Western democracy in action.
The more I think about it, the less likely it seems. The CIA has a yearly budget of around $15 billion, you can’t hope to replicate that on the cheap.
Plus, I don’t see individual member states’ intel agencies going along with it. They have to protect their sources, and they preciously guard those and custody of sensitive intel. Handing intel to Brussels, for gawd knows who to look at ,vetting?, won’t fly. It’d also blur responsibility in any data breach, insider threat, leaks etc. Some European countries don’t even have the same adversaries, threat priorities or worldview e.g. Hungary, Slovakia, would they be excluded?
The U.S. is a nation, albeit a federal system; if the EU wished to disband intel agencies in individual member states and create a similar Central Intelligence Agency, in Brussels, the member states would tell von der Leyen where to shove the idea. Pretty much the same problem persists with the idea of pooling national resources to form a European Army too. Every member state wants to control their own forces.
Thank you for this clear picture of a major element in the life of the current UK monarch. It helps to put the activities of the former Prince Andrew into a clearer perspective. While this is all very sick, it is clearly an important part of the way our societies are ruled, so best people look at it clearly, and not ignore it.
As to why paedophilia is so prevalent, David Icke has one of the best explanations I have seen. Try watching David Icke “The Legacy | Episode One | Epstein and the Rings” https://youtu.be/7F6rrEQ0emE
In this episode, David focuses on chapter 16 of his 2012 book ‘The Perception Deception’ and how information related to US financier Jeffrey Epstein relates to the present day.”
From the video
[16:47] “It’s been clear to me for decades now that these these entities, this nonhuman force, wants most of all the energy of children before puberty happens. Because we see puberty as a chemical change, a hormonal change, but actually that hormonal chemical change is an expression of a frequency change in the energetic field of the young at that point. And they want that energy before. And that’s why pedophilia is such a focus of these people that operate in this cult.”
It’s interesting to consider this statement alongside the exponential growth of puberty blocking drugs encouraged via the “trans” movement.
But if we take this to its logical conclusion surely we can expect the reptilian aliens for whom the House of Windsor et al are forming a beachead to arrive and whisk the disgraced former prince off to the environs of Arcturus, or wherever
I was just on youtube checking out a few videos (starting with Owen Jones latest video) and, as such, checked out a vid in the recommends entitled UK ACCUSES TRUMP OF WAR CRIMES about the UK having stopped sharing some intelligence with the US. I then did a search to see if any of the MSM have covered it, and quite a few of them HAD. But as I scrolled down further and further through the results, it occured to me that the BBC – ie BBC News – wasn’t amongst them. So I then went on the BBC News website and did a search on there, and nothing relevant came up in the results. It is of course possible that they covered it in their News bulletins/programs, or the BBC News channel, but in my experience, they would normally also post an article about it on their website if that was the case. So it looks as if they’ve blanked it. Anyway here’s a Sun article about it (but they don’t mention that many of those killed were just fishermen):
ALLY SPLIT UK stops sharing Caribbean drug intelligence with US over airstrikes as France also worries about Trump breaking law
Canada also expressed concerns regarding the legality of US operations

Many of these calls for International Law to be observed are both quaint and naive, International law, you know the original version enshrined in the 1949 UN charter, no longer exists, it has been replaced by the ‘Rules based order’ this means the United States makes the rules, which can change at any time to reflect the geostratic needs of the hegemonic US empire. This has the effect of by passing the veto wielding powers of US enemies Russia and China. Then the US together with its vassals form a coalition of the willing to subjugate any unwilling or any state that tries to assert its independence, these are the new rules of the great geostratigic “Game”. You either go along with it, thereby gaining a carpet of gold, or a carpet of bombs, Your choice.
US planners have world hegemony as its aim, Halford Mackinder ‘the Heartland’ and Zbigniew Brzezinski in his book ‘the Grand Chess board’ both envisaged the control of Ukraine as key to who controls the world. Similarly it could be said, as Joe Biden blurted out not long ago, “If Israel did not exist, we would have to invent it” This was endorsed not long ago by UK Conservative leader Olúkẹmi Olufunto Adegoke Badenoch and German Chancellor Merz who claimed that Israel is “Doing the Wests dirty work in the Middle East” backing Israel means control over, as Jimmy Carter said the stupendous wealth of the region.
“Let our position be absolutely clear: An attempt by any outside force to gain control of the Persian Gulf region will be regarded as an assault on the vital interests of the United States of America, and such an assault will be repelled by any means necessary, including military force”.
Jimmy Carter, state of the union address, Jan. 23, 1980.
Now alliances are being formed in the far east to contain, or maybe a better phrase, confront China, hence the US must leave the losing Ukraine debacle, and pivot to its major threat, China. All in the service of US hegemony.
Non of these schemes seems to be working, but the US will never give up, and is unraveling in all global sectors.
In the Middle east backing for Israel takes many forms, keeping Israels enemies weak and divided, US Turkish Envoy Tom Barrack wants the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah, causing an immediate Lebanese civil war, if they will not do this he will encourage Israel to do it for them.
These machinations blend in with another scheme called the Yinon Plan…
“[The Yinon plan] is an Israeli strategic plan to ensure Israeli regional superiority. It insists and stipulates that Israel must reconfigure its geo-political environment through the balkanization of the surrounding Arab states into smaller and weaker states”. Unfortunately many people in the Middle East are more than eager to fight each other and will not utter a peep even when the people in Gaza are being subjected to Genocide. The final piece in the Middle east chess board is the subjugation of Iran, they are working on it, unfortunately Iran is far too strong and independent to capitulate, the US realize the Iranians have too many cards to play, not least causing a world wide economic collapse through it ability to close the Strait of Hormuz and or lay waste to Israel with its massive underground facilities producing unstoppable hypersonic missiles etc. Outch!
As an example of the new ‘Rules based order’ the US pushed for the prosecution of V Putin at the ICC when they falsely accused Putin of abducting many children from war torn Eastern Ukraine. Putin was indeed indicted by the ICC, even though the children were evacuated with their parents consent, as detailed in this Grayzone article.
https://thegrayzone.com/2023/04/13/nato-states-icc-prosecutor-putin/
Meanwhile upwards of 30,000 children have been slaughtered in Gaza, all with the approval of the United States. Such is the world we live in, if the US empire approves, all is well. Next stop Venezuela, and the drug Barons led by Maduro. The only reason to attack Venezuela is because…. Sep 4, 2025 · Estimated at 303 billion barrels (Bbbl) as of 2023, Venezuela is home to the largest known reserves of oil. Saudi Arabia ranks second. The Neocons could just buy the oil, but they prefer to steal it [cheaper that way]. Just the possession of same on the asset side of the ledger might give the US a few more years of economic survival. Of course you have to steal it first, without getting a bloody nose.
International law died in 1999 when NATO took it upon itself to bomb Yugoslavia absent a UN resolution.
Once again the British led the Yanks by the nose. Here is Grok´s summary of Blair´s role in murdering the UN system.
The REALLY interesting part of this is that Blair was able to commit this most supreme of all war crimes without placing at risk the British state nor its Sovereign.
People in business know to be wary of ¨straw man directors¨. These are directors who present themselves as legitimate, but who in fact have not been lawfully appointed. The Companies Acts deal with matters such as these under the heading ¨Validity of acts of Directors¨.
What happens is that when the cheated party seeks to enforce an agreement they find that the director is disowned by the counterparty.
The Chinese understood this when in 1997 they insisted the document returning Hong Kong be signed by Prince Charles. They understood Blair´s word and signature were worthless, so the current King Charles was forced to travel to Hong Kong alongside Blair.
Blair was finally outed as the fake prime minister at the meeting of the Council of Europe at Feira, Portugal on 20 June 2000.
There ain´t no gangster like a British gangster.
And then of course Slobodan Milosovic very conveniently ¨died¨ before he had the chance to give his side of the story.

You say that “International law died in 1999 when NATO took it upon itself to bomb Yugoslavia absent a UN resolution.”
What would you say of the Putin regime taking it upon itself to invade (and bomb, of course) Ukraine in 2022?
Did I miss the UNSC resolution authorising the invasion?
Is the UNSC independent and unbiased or is it a US poodle?
Marco Rubio says Britain didn’t stop giving the USA intelligence in response to US military attacks on civilian shipping in the Caribbean [*] area, which have killed 76 people:

1) Or the “Carribean” as the meritocrats at the Telegraph call it in their strapline.
On the subject of official cover-ups and the BBC.

Near media blackout on this story in Europe and the UK – the UK govt have given Ukraine billions while the chancellor talks of ‘difficult choices’ in her upcoming budget. This is the definition of lying through omission. Embezzlement of hundreds of millions is obviously bad at any time, but during wartime, while begging for external funding, unbelievable.
Timur Mindich, isn’t just some random character either, he’s a co-owner of Zelenskyy’s Kvartal 95 media production company.
“It looks really bad in the eyes of our European and American partners. While Russians destroy our power grid and people have to endure blackouts, someone at the top was stealing money during the war.”
– Oleksandr Merezhko, an MP in Zelenskyy’s party
As the piece asks : One lingering question is how high the corruption goes.
Oh come on, Goose. It´s entirely believable.
During the vote on the last tranche of money from the US Senator Rand Paul sought to attach a requirement for audit. He was voted down.
Remember ¨Ten percent for the Big Guy¨ on Hunter Biden´s laptop?
The whole purpose of Ukraine is to embezzle. With a corollary to weaken Russia.
The corruption goes right up to the royal houses of Europe.
They hold an annual accounting every year when they meet to celebrate the Order of the Garter.
” The whole purpose of Ukraine is to embezzle. With a corollary to weaken Russia.”. Indeed so, John.
To no-one with unglazed eyes’ surprise, it’s all starting to unravel for Vlod ” Winston ” Zelensky’s gangster racketeering regime
That this latest ” revelation ” has been precipitated, effectively, by the U.S, which has hitherto been assiduously providing cover for the Kiev Kleptocracy, suggests the end may well be nigh for the latter.
Daft wee Kaka Kallous comments on the issue ……” this is most unfortunate….” . ahahahaha, aye, just a bit, eh?
At a time when the Idiotcracts in EU+demented cousin UK are still pouring E£billions into that country whilst telling their * citizens * they must be prepared to accept/expect continuing economic hardships – and possibly sacrifice the lives of loved ones – the recidivist compulsive thieves benefitting from this Elite largesse are plundering as much of it as they can stuff in their ” pockets ” – in all likelihood – ” offshore ” ” pockets “.
Ach well, at least, wassitcalled again? oh, right……Democracy & the other abstract noun…..eh…..Freedom, that’s it; yea, at least they’re being preserved, right?

I was just listening to an episode of Paul Sinha’s Perfect Pub Quiz on Radio 4:

Pretty harmless, I would have thought. I know never to listen to “topical” comedy on the BBC, of course, but this isn’t topical.
But there’s no escape from the BBC’s soft-pedalling on Israel. At 23m49s:
“In 1946, she survived the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem.”
This terrorist atrocity mysteriously seems to have had no perpetrators!
If he had been talking about the bombing of the Grand Hotel in Brighton in 1984, you can be sure he would have mentioned the Provisional IRA.
Pathetic!
Just came across this on Al Jazeera, posted three weeks ago:
Stories of children killed by Israel in the occupied West Bank this year
https://www.aljazeera.com/video/newsfeed/2025/10/21/stories-of-children-killed-by-israel-in-the-occupied-west-bank-this-year
An encouraging (and realistic) piece in the Economist: https://archive.ph/3a2FH
“Grave problems lie ahead. Inducing despair in Mr Putin, a noble aim, might be complicated if Russia can tap China for funds. Decision-making between the EU and NATO, which includes Britain, Norway and Canada, needs to be nimbler. Safeguards against corruption are important, but must not erode Ukraine’s—and the Kremlin’s—certainty that, one way or another, the money is coming.
Europe should take heart and recognise its own strength. Its military budget is already four times larger than Russia’s; its economy is ten times larger. Far from shying away from a financial contest with the Kremlin, Europe should embrace it—and win the war.”
“While racism punches down, antisemitism punches up.” This seems to be a widespread slogan about anti-Semitism parroted by supremacist groups, e.g. the American Jewish Committee
https://www.ajc.org/translatehate/control
The Antisemitism Policy Trust and Community Security Trust define anti-Semitism as a type of racism but with the same general idea: “Antisemitism is different to [sic] most other types of racism, because it ‘punches up’, rather than ‘down’.”
https://antisemitism.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Web-2020-What-is-Antisemitism.pdf
This is quite interesting because they seem to have missed the point that punching up is completely different from punching down.
Meanwhile the Campaign Against Semitism is screaming that “These BBC resignations must just be the beginning”
https://antisemitism.org/these-bbc-resignations-must-just-be-the-beginning/
They have a photo with lots of people carrying banners with Stars of David and the words “BBC – I Refuse to Fund Terrorism”, with about five Occupation flags, including one on the same pole as a Union Jack. The text includes the sentence “(T)he BBC has often served as a mouthpiece for Hamas”.[*]
It can’t be long before Keir Starmer too is accused of being favourable towards Hamas – the same Keir Starmer who said the Zionists had the right to turn off the water supply to two million civilians.
Note
*) Do we call that a ” ‘Hamas controls the media’ theory”?
The USA could be about to remove the government in St Vincent.
There’s an election on 27 November. Prime minister Ralph Gonsalves is aiming for his sixth win.
Gonsalves has rebuked the Trinidadian government for supporting US military strikes against vessels in the Caribbean.
The US government also seems to have some kinda problem with Cuban medical assistance in the region.
FWIW St V has friendly relations with Taiwan.
Opposition leader Godwin Friday could do a Guaido, and there’s a lot of USA firepower in the area right now. FFS.
For those who don’t already know: St V is formally an independent country with the same monarch as Britain. Just like Grenada.

^ OMFG – “If the opposition are willing to demonise our family, what will they be willing to do to yours?”
That is from the prime minister’s wife. Goodness knows how the focus groups have responded, but I’m sure the PM doesn’t want to end up like James Callaghan:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dX06xqN6710&t=44s
The danger here is that the two parties don’t agree on the election result.
