The Power of the Paedos - another high profile case hits the 'never happened' wall?

[Michael Barwell]

According to Jones, one senior BBC executive stood outside Broadcasting House at the height of the Savile scandal and held forth to colleagues about Jones and MacKean, describing them as "traitors to the BBC".

He says: "It's a small group of people but they are very powerful people who think we betrayed the BBC by not keeping out mouths shut."

The old Queen Mother used to refer to keeping 'schtumm' as keeping "oyster", as it happens. For some, failure is no impediment to success. This is a traditional thing in Blighty; 'Boy' Browning (Dirk Bogard, in the film Bridge too Far) who was part of the planning, got promoted after the Arnhem debacle, whilst Gene Hackman (Stanisław Sosabowski) who complained about the plan beforehand, was sacked (it's on my mind - I've just read the book), but it's fairly standard fare. Funny line from BBC R4 'The Unbelievable Truth' comedy show the other day, on the trope "Don't shoot the messenger", came-up with "Don't shoot the Führer". Same thing... maybe...

So there is an investigation in to the safely dead Ted Heath but none for the alive and well Kenneth Clarke. Got it.

Exaro, today, have an article on the credible claims of "Nick" against the former MP, Harvey Proctor. Reading between the lines there seems to be a move inside the top brass of the police - and amongst some journalists - to bring the related Operation Midland to a close following Proctor's recent public statement.

Exaro strongly support the credibility of "Nick" as do the police members of Operation Midland. But. As Exaro says, it wouldn't be the first police investigation into high level paedos to be "pulled prematurely".

If it is pulled then it simply will demonstrate again how powerful these bastards really are and what influence they wield behind the scenes.

Business as usual.

My conjecture is that senior Met commanders are coming under mounting pressure to halt the investigation, and that this pressure is coming from the government and/or government ministers. My reasons for thinking is that I suspect Harvey Proctor has blackmail leverage that if used, would rock the Conservative Party and quite possibly bring the government down.

All just conjecture, obviously. But why else would the Met consider bringing the investigation to a close.

All the more reason to keep going in my view but I know they do things differently there.... Let the government fall. Let Harvey Proctor use his blackmail and charge him with that too. And charge them all.

Tom Watson, raised concerns, bit of a bastard, they say;
MET (-or the Gestapo Khazi), let a fella die slowly and in pain, without telling him the investigation had been dropped - no worries there then.

Oh sweet bullshit.

It's a witch hunt against Tom Watson in the same way that the media are out to get Corbyn, no matter how.

Meanwhile, simply because the police have dropped their investigation into Leon Brittan due to a lack of evidence does not mean very much. The police, and others, have repeatedly acted to cover up paedophile activity - and we know and should not forget that the Special Branch have been openly accused of removing police evidence and intimidating witnesses in sensitive paedophile cases.

Peter Jukes was saying it is a witch hunt too and importantly that the police are still investigating even though some charges have been dropped. He has castigated the Murdoch and other journos for not reporting this factually. He also stated that here is not one person involved in child protection that has a bad word to say about Watson. On the contrary. And in pointing out the also obvious that the Murdoch crime family have it in for him and will persecute him until the end of time if need be. Just because. Not necessarily related to the Brittan matter but also for the book and now the Deputy Prime Minister-ship of the Corbyn Labour Party.

Yup. Tom Watson savaged Murdoch personally when he appeared as a witness before a Parliamentary committee for the hacking scandal.

Watch him snake-tongue and lie his head off here:



And I suspect the reason why Murdoch is now attacking Exaro (and Watson) has to do with Exaro showing that he did, in fact, know and has admitted knowing, about the bribing of police officers (public officials) despite his denial above. This is what he said:

""We're talking about payments for news tips from cops: that's been going on a hundred years absolutely."
