April 9 2019 – “Clergy burnt church files after being accused of covering up abuse” – Christian Today – Harry Farley [March 20 2018]
The Deanery Garden at Chichester Cathedral
Clergy burnt church files after being accused of covering up abuse, inquiry hears
A senior clergyman burnt church files, an inquiry heard today, after he failed to report the systematic abuse of children by a priest to the police.
John Treadgold, the former dean of Chichester Cathedral, returned to the empty deanery after he retired in 2001, took files from the basement and burnt them in the garden, his former colleague Peter Atkinson said.
It happened as Terence Banks, the head steward of the cathedral, was convicted of 32 sexual offences against 12 boys over a period of 29 years. He was sentenced to 16 years in jail in 2001 after an investigation by Sussex police.
However it later emerged through a report conducted by Edina Carmi in 2004 that Treadgold had been told of Banks’ abuse by a victim in 2000 but had not reported it to the police, the child protection adviser or social services.
Of Banks’ 12 victims, all were under 16 years of ago and some were as young as 11. He was eventually convicted in 2001 of 23 charges of indecent assault, five of buggery, one of indecency with a child under 14 years, and two of attempting to procure acts of gross indecency.
The current dean of Worcester, Peter Atkinson, was chancellor of Chichester Cathedral at the time, and told the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse that Treadgold came back to the deanery after he had retired and burnt files that were in the basement.
‘What I remember of the episode is that he returned to the deanery, which was then empty, removed a number of files from the deanery basement and had a fire in the garden,’ Atkinson told the inquiry today.
‘I don’t know what the files were,’ he added.
‘It is a bit odd that he moved away and then came back to do this. It was sufficiently troubling for us to mention this to the police.’
He said the police ‘took it very seriously’ but ‘ultimately no future action was taken’.
He described Treadgold’s dealings with the police as ‘defensive’ and said he blurred homosexuality with paedophilia in his attitude.
‘The conflict over homosexuality and abuse was, like many men of his background and his generation, there was an unease about her whole idea of homosexuality and a sort of presumption that homosexual men where unsafe in relation to other men, particularly younger men or boys.’
The independent inquiry into child sex abuse is hearing evidence into how the diocese of Chichester dealt with allegations of abuse as a case study for the wider Church of England.
October 3 2017 – “Justin Welby telling off the BBC over sex abuse was the pot calling the kettle black” – i News – Simon Kelner

So there is the pot, as black as night, scorched by the depredations of everyday life, tarnished by hard times and rough usage. And suddenly, without warning or provocation, the pot turns round to the kettle, similarly battered and bruised, and says: “It’s not me that’s black. It’s you!”
This was the essential nature of an implausible exchange on Radio 4’s Today Programme when the Archbishop of Canterbury excoriated the BBC for their lack of integrity over dealing with sex abuse in its organisation. I am sure I heard it right. The head of the Anglican church, which has a long and horrible history of the sexual abuse of vulnerable young people, was complaining that the BBC hadn’t acted responsibly when the scale of Jimmy Savile’s offences became known.
Savile may have been protected by the blithe, blind, egregiously liberal mores of the age, but he was something of a one-off. Sex abuse was not endemic or systemic within the precincts of Broadcasting House, and the BBC’s reaction to his unmasking was swift and authoritative. The corporation launched an independent investigation by a high court judge, and accepted all its recommendations. They apologised to Savile’s victims, and have established new safeguards for children.
So what was the Archbishop on about? Why did he take on the BBC on grounds that he must have realised would be very problematic for the Church?

He knew, of course, that he would get support from the inveterate Beeb bashers among the national press, but notwithstanding that, it’s hard to credit his intervention. It is true that Archbishop Welby has been on the front foot regarding sex abuse scandals in the Church, insisting there will be no cover-up of historic allegations and saying that “the rule is survivors come first, not our own interests”.
‘I am deeply resistant to a religious leader who uses his pulpit to attack one of our most admirable institutions‘ At this point, it’s too tempting not to resort to scripture. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, according to the Gospel of St John. And an independent review of the Church of England’s handling of a particular sex abuse case in 2016 concluded that Welby’s office failed “to respond meaningfully to repeated efforts by the survivor… to bring his case to the Church leader’s attention”.
It is a shame that Welby took to the airwaves armed with a pocketful of stones, a fact not lost on a welter of Twitter respondents, including a number of victims of abuse. Both the Anglican Church and the BBC, representing two of the four estates of a democracy, are all too prone to introspection and self-absorption, and Welby’s comments were part of a bigger interview, not yet aired, to mark the 60th birthday of the Today programme. Within it, he discussed ways in which society has changed in that period. We have become kinder and more considerate, he said, but the flip side is the cult of individualism, or a “radical autonomy”, in his own words.
I found myself applauding this analysis. But I am deeply resistant to the moralising tones of a religious leader who uses his pulpit to attack one of our most admirable institutions, respected and envied throughout the world. That’s not to say the BBC is without sin either, by the way. But this was an unmerited and unjustified attack, which, taken with the Archbishop of York’s willingness to pocket the Murdoch shilling, might lead conspiracy theorists to think that the Anglican Church was pursuing an agenda against the Beeb.

October 1 2017 – “Heath ‘abused boys young as 11′” – Mail on Sunday – Oct 1 2017
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4937366/Ted-Heath-abused-boys-young-11.html
Ted Heath ‘abused boys young as 11’: Bombshell police report details 42 assault claims and one ‘rape of underage male’ with two cases linked to ex-premier’s interest in sailing
- The controversial report into paedophile allegations against Sir Edward Heath includes claims he sexually assaulted boys as young as 11
- Some of the more serious allegations are linked to the sailing world
- The report will say that seven of the allegations are sufficiently credible to justify questioning Sir Edward under caution were he alive today
The controversial report into paedophile allegations against Sir Edward Heath includes claims that he sexually assaulted boys as young as 11, it emerged last night.
Some of the most serious allegations, which include at least one rape and span his five decades as an MP, are linked to the sailing world. The former Prime Minister was a skilled yachtsman.
The report will say that seven of the allegations are sufficiently credible to justify questioning Sir Edward under caution were he alive today. One of the seven is said to involve the rape of an underage boy. Two were linked to his interest in sailing and allegedly occurred in Guernsey and Jersey.
The sailing connection: The former Prime Minister was a renowned yachtsman, and even won races on board his vessel Morning Cloud. Two of the abuse allegations against Heath – pictured on the yacht in 1975 – are linked to his love of sailing and are alleged to have taken place in the Channel Islands
It is thought that at least two of the other seven most serious allegations occurred in Wiltshire, where Sir Edward lived at Arundells, a mansion in Salisbury. It is not known if the alleged crimes happened there.
Two separate allegations are said to have been made by individuals in ‘prominent’ positions today. It is thought they were reporting the alleged abuse of others.
The Mail on Sunday has been told that at least one allegation relates to a boy younger than 11 but we have been unable to confirm this.
And according to one unconfirmed report, some claims refer to the music world – Heath was known as an orchestra conductor.
The astonishing disclosures come just four days before the findings of Operation Conifer – a two-year, £1.5 million investigation into Sir Edward – are made public by Wiltshire Police Chief Constable Mike Veale.
Mr Veale has faced fierce criticism from those who claim the allegations are fantasy.
Crucially, the inquiry does not prove Sir Edward’s guilt: its remit was limited to saying if the claims justified questioning him.
It is understood that the report rejects three of the main arguments used by Sir Edward’s friends to combat the allegations: that he would have few opportunities to commit such crimes because he couldn’t drive and never owned a car; that for most of his long career he had round-the-clock police protection; and that he was asexual.
The report says Sir Edward’s former police bodyguards said they did not watch him 24 hours a day and that for much of his political life he had no protection at all.
It says he could drive – though bizarrely there is no record of him having had a driving licence – and at various times owned a Rover 2000 and Vauxhall Viva.
And it says former aides said they were certain he did have consenting sexual relationships with adults.
Furthermore, the report says:
- 42 claims of child sex abuse include at least one rape of an underage boy. Most alleged victims were boys aged 11 to 15;
- Some were rent boys or from ‘low-life’ backgrounds. Others were boys he encountered elsewhere. Nine of the 42 claims were already on police files, in some cases for decades, but had been dismissed;
- Allegations date from the mid- 1950s when he was Chief Whip to the 1990s when he was in his 70s;
- Places where alleged crimes occurred are generally referred to as ‘public places’. At least one is said to have happened in a hotel. Two allegations were made by ‘senior professionals’. Mr Veale is expected to say that he went to great lengths to avoid errors made by other police investigations into historic sex abuse allegations, such as being taken in by ‘fantasists’.
Riddle: Heath outside his Rover – he owned cars despite not having a licence
One accuser is said to have made three bogus claims and faces being prosecuted.
Nor has Mr Veale shied away from examining his own force’s record. The inquiry was told by a retired Wiltshire policeman that plans to prosecute an individual in the 1990s were dropped when the person threatened to claim in court that they had procured rent boys for Sir Edward.
Mr Veale recruited eight of Britain’s most senior retired detectives to boost the 24-strong Wiltshire Police inquiry.
Mr Veale is expected to give a robust response to those who say it is pointless to investigate a dead man on the grounds that he can never be put in the dock, arguing that police have a special duty to probe alleged corruption in high places. Conifer was set up in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal.
No victims are referred to by name in the 100-page inquiry summary to honour a pledge of lifetime anonymity – although they are included in the full 350-page report given to the Home Office and the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA).
This newspaper has been told the report lists the allegations against Sir Edward, who died aged 89 in 2005, in five categories:
1. Seven ‘victims’ whose accounts would warrant interviewing him under caution, including the alleged rape of a boy.
2. Sixteen ‘vulnerable’ cases whose accounts fall just short of similar action due to an ‘element of undermining evidence’, including fading memory.
3. Ten cases including ‘third parties’ – complainants who said others had been abused by Sir Edward but not themselves. When police tracked down the alleged victims in these cases they gave the same account, but named other individuals as being the person who had been abused. It is thought that they wanted to expose Sir Edward without admitting he had assaulted them. It includes people who are married with children and want to put the matter behind them but felt compelled to act as well.
4. Six cases including one individual who is to be prosecuted over three bogus claims. Three others withdrew complaints.
5. Three complaints were made anonymously.
Conservative MP Andrew Bridgen said: ‘If this report shows there were serious grounds for believing Edward Heath was involved in the sexual abuse of children, it will cause a huge shockwave and it could indicate that claims of an Establishment cover-up of paedophiles in Westminster have been true all along.
‘When Theresa May was asked about the inquiry last week she said it was vital that all child sex abuse allegations are investigated properly. She is right.
‘The public need to be reassured that no one is above the law whatever their position in public life. It is interesting that some MPs and parts of the media appear so keen to vilify Mr Veale without knowing what is in the Conifer report.’
Friends of Mr Veale say he is ready to face down an anticipated hostile reception to his report from Sir Edward’s defenders. One said: ‘Mike’s view is that although Sir Edward is dead and cannot be prosecuted, the nearer you are to power, the more important it is to investigate alleged wrongdoing.’
Police chief has been pilloried… simply for doing his duty: MP JOHN GLEN defends the man who launched the Heath sex abuse inquiry
If Sir Edward Heath were still alive today, I would be his local MP. His famous former home, Arundells, lies in the very heart of my Salisbury constituency.
So I was as appalled as anyone else at the manner in which the inquiry into sex abuse allegations against him began in 2015.
For a Wiltshire Police officer to stand outside Arundells to appeal for witnesses was insensitive.
Guard: An officer on duty outside Sir Edward’s Salisbury home on the day the abuse inquiry was launched
But over the past year, my anger at that ill-judged approach has given way to greater concerns.
I have watched with increasing disquiet as the inquiry has been subjected to repeated attacks seemingly designed to discredit it before it even sees the light of day.
And the man who took the difficult decision to launch it, Mike Veale, has been pilloried, his competence and professionalism questioned.
As someone who knows and respects Mr Veale, I find this deeply unfair.
In my constituency dealings with him, I have found him to be a dedicated and principled police officer.
In deciding to proceed with this inquiry, Mr Veale faced a profoundly difficult decision.
Sir Edward’s friends are understandably concerned that his reputation is not destroyed when he is no longer here to defend himself.
Given how other high-profile political sex-abuse inquiries collapsed, Mr Veale could have been forgiven for ignoring the allegations concerning Sir Edward.
Scotland Yard’s disgraceful hounding of former Tory Home Secretary Sir Leon Brittan will have borne heavily on his mind.
I suspect that if Mr Veale’s main concern was his own future career prospects, he would never have launched this inquiry. Instead, he did what I think was the right thing and decided that every allegation of such a serious crime must be judged on its own merits, however unpleasant and controversial.
If there are victims of historic child sex abuse in this case, they deserve to be heard and have their allegations properly investigated.
Sadly, critics of Operation Conifer have casually conflated it with previous discredited inquiries, as if one set of unfounded allegations automatically disproves others in perpetuity.
Nothing could be more damaging to public trust in our police and political system.
Of course some mistakes will have been made in Operation Conifer, such as its launch. And in any such complex investigation, unfounded claims will have been made and unreliable witnesses spoken to.
But Mr Veale has made extraordinary efforts to ensure this inquiry is proportionate and appropriate.
This inquiry was never going to ‘prove’ Sir Edward’s guilt one way or the other.
Only a court of law can do that and obviously the former PM can no longer face trial. But Operation Conifer may at least shed some light on whether he should have done.

September 30 2017 – “Archbishop of Canterbury accuses BBC of failing to show same ‘integrity’ over child abuse as the Church” – Christian Today [Ruth Gledhill]
Archbishop of Canterbury accuses BBC of failing to show same ‘integrity’ over child abuse as the Church
Ruth Gledhill EDITOR 
The Archbishop of Canterbury has criticised the BBC over its response to Jimmy SavileThe BBC has defended itself against criticism from the Archbishop of Canterbury that it lacked ‘integrity’ in its response to the Jimmy Savile child abuse scandal.
Archbishop Justin Welby said on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that the corporation had not shown the same integrity the Anglican and Catholic churches had.
Invited to reflect on the programmes 60th anniversary of being on air, he said: ‘I think we are a kinder society more concerned with our own failures, more willing to be honest where we go wrong in most of our institutions.’ But there were still ‘dark areas’.
He continued: ‘If I’m really honest, I’d say the BBC is one. I haven’t seen the same integrity over the BBC’s failures over Savile as I’ve seen in the Roman Catholic Church, in the Church of England, in other public institutions over abuse. We may be proved wrong about that but you know that’s one area.’
The Archbishop also referred to the dispute over the pay gap between men and women at the BBC, and said that in the church, male and female bishops received exactly the same stipends.
Archbishop Welby was speaking just weeks before Lord Carlile publishes his review into how the Church of England handled a claim by ‘Carol’ into allegations of abuse by the late Bishop George Bell of Chichester, who died in 1958.
In Australia, where the Anglican and Roman Catholic churches have been under investigation by a royal commission into institutional child sex abuse, and the Catholic Cardinal George Pell is facing multiple historic child sex abuse charges, only yesterday it emerged that one victim was forced to take the Anglican Church to court over failure to pay a $1.5 million settlement.
The BBC, Church of England and Roman Catholic Church will all be examined soon in the UK’s own version of the Australian commission, chaired by Professor Alexis Jay. This December, the UK inquiry will look at the English Benedectines and next March, at the Church of England’s Chichester diocese.
Meanwhile six church sex abuse survivors silence condemned the Archbishop’s attack on the BBC.
In a statement they said: ‘Speaking from our own bitter experience, we do not recognise Archbishop Welby’s description of the integrity with which the Church of England handles cases of abuse in a church context.
‘Far from the ‘rigorous response and self-examination’ he claims, our experience of the church, and specifically the archbishop, is of long years of silence, denial and evasion. The Church of England needs to confront its own darkness in relation to abuse before confronting the darkness of others.’
Matthew Ineson, who as a teen was raped by a C of E vicar, Trevor Devamanikkam, who killed himself just before he was due to appear in court to answer to the charges, told The Guardian: ‘I know from my own experience, and the experience of others, that safeguarding within the C of E is appalling.
‘The church has colluded with the cover-up of abuse and has obstructed justice for those whose lives have been ruined by the actions of its clergy. I have been fighting for five years for the church to recognise its responsibilities and I’m still being met with attempts to bully me into dropping my case.’
A BBC spokesman defended the corporation. He said: ‘This isn’t a characterisation we recognise. When the Savile allegations became known we established an independent investigation by a High Court judge. In the interests of transparency, this was published in full. We apologised and accepted all the recommendations.
‘And while today’s BBC is a different place, we set out very clear actions to ensure the highest possible standards of child safeguarding.’
Regarding the Archbishop’s comments on the gender pay gap, the BBC added: ‘Gender pay is a challenge for all organisations not just the BBC. The national gender pay gap is 18 percent. The BBC’s is under ten percent and we have committed to closing it in 2020. We know we have to go further and faster. We are not unique in this. The Church of England’s own published pay gap for non-office holders is 41 percent. We all collectively have more work to do, to sort an issue that is a problem across the vast majority of organisations.’
Lambeth Palace said: ‘We fully accept the failures of the Church of England in the area of safeguarding.
‘Since the Archbishop took up his role, he has been very clear that the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults should be the highest priority of all parts of the Church and was one of the first to call for the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA).
‘The Church’s National Safeguarding Team was created in 2015 and there are now robust House of Bishops safeguarding policies in place along with independent audits for all dioceses and dedicated training on hearing disclosures for all senior clergy.
‘The Archbishop fully supports the Church’s commitment to develop a stronger national approach to safeguarding to improve its response to protecting the vulnerable.
‘The Archbishop believes this level of rigorous response and self-examination needs to extend to all institutions, including the BBC.’

The controversial investigation into allegations that Sir Edward Heath was a paedophile has been dramatically widened, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
Officials at Britain’s biggest ever public inquiry confirmed that they are to study the findings of an explosive police report into claims that the former Prime Minister was a child abuser.
The Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse – set up to investigate claims that a Westminster paedophile ring was covered up by the Establishment – will now look at the outcome of Operation Conifer, a two-year inquiry into Heath led by Wiltshire Chief Constable Mike Veale. His confidential report is due to be published in the next few weeks.
The controversial investigation into allegations that Sir Edward Heath was a paedophile has been dramatically widened, The Mail on Sunday can reveal
A spokesman for the IICSA told The Mail on Sunday last night: ‘In the context of the Westminster investigation, the inquiry will be interested to see and consider the outcome of Wiltshire Police’s investigation into allegations against Sir Edward Heath.’
It is believed to be the first time the inquiry has referred specifically to the Heath investigation.
The statement follows a little-noticed change on the IICSA website on August 30 that the scope of its Westminster inquiry is to be widened to take account of ‘recent police investigations’.
The amendment did not refer to Operation Conifer, but The Mail on Sunday has been told that it was linked to the imminent conclusion of Mr Veale’s probe.
The website added the IICSA would be ‘reviewing, collating and aggregating the work of previous investigations, some of which may not be in the public domain’.
Woman paedophile, 33, who lured 13-year-old boy to her home…
The accused and his accuser: Ex-MP John Hemming spent two…The Mail on Sunday revealed earlier this year how Mr Veale defied pressure to call off his investigations because he believed some claims were ‘120 per cent genuine’.
The developments came as one Tory MP warned his party not to try to stop Mr Veale from publishing his findings.
Several Conservative politicians have called Operation Conifer, which has cost £1.5 million, a waste of time and public money. They say it is pointless because Sir Edward died 12 years ago and could never be prosecuted.
But Tory MP Andrew Bridgen said Mr Veale had been wrongly vilified and there were ‘powerful voices who would like to silence Operation Conifer’.
Mr Veale was a ‘courageous and honest’ policeman and ‘must be allowed to complete his investigation, free of abuse, intimidation or pressure,’ Mr Bridgen writes in today’s Mail on Sunday. There should be no cover-up, regardless of any embarrassment to the Conservatives – or anyone else.
In February, this newspaper reported that more than 30 people had come forward to Wiltshire Police with allegations of sexual abuse by Sir Edward. The alleged victims were said to have given ‘strikingly similar’ accounts of incidents, even though the individuals were not known to each other.
According to some sources, the findings of Operation Conifer support claims that Sir Edward’s alleged crimes were reported to police years ago but buried by the Establishment.
Inquiry One: Wiltshire police probe
Wiltshire Police have been investigating child abuse claims against Sir Edward Heath for the past two years. Led by Chief Constable Mike Veale Operation Conifer has cost taxpayers £1.5 million so far and will finish in the next six weeks.
Led by Chief Constable Mike Veale Operation Conifer has cost taxpayers £1.5 million so far and will finish in the next six weeks
At one stage there were 20 people working on the case: six detectives, a PC and 13 civilian staff. They have interviewed Heath’s former friends, staff and sailing companions, fellow politicians and civil servants, and even examined his papers in Oxford’s Bodleian Library.
A panel of experts was brought in to provide independent oversight of Operation Conifer following claims that it was a witch-hunt, and a waste of money given that Heath is dead and so cannot be prosecuted. Two people were arrested and questioned following claims made as part of Operation Conifer but in April they were told they faced no further action.
After the investigation is closed, a summary will be published, while a fuller report will be handed to the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse to consider as part of its investigation into an alleged VIP paedophile ring in Westminster.
Inquiry Two: VIP sex ring report
The public inquiry into historic child abuse was set up by David Cameron in July 2014 after growing pressure from MPs and campaigners who feared the Establishment had covered up sex crimes by public figures.
Professor Alexis Jay became the fourth chairman last summer but immediately faced a fresh crisis as counsel to the inquiry, Ben Emmerson, was suspended and then resigned
But the inquiry struggled to get off the ground as the first two chairmen, Baroness Butler-Sloss and Dame Fiona Woolf, were forced to quit over perceived conflicts of interest.
The inquiry then chose New Zealand judge Dame Lowell Goddard to take over, but she too quit after a year in charge.
Professor Alexis Jay became the fourth chairman last summer but immediately faced a fresh crisis as counsel to the inquiry, Ben Emmerson, was suspended and then resigned.
Several other lawyers left and a series of survivors’ groups severed their links over their concerns about the inquiry’s leadership, scope and lack of progress.
The inquiry finally held its first public hearing in February this year after spending some £20 million, but it could last as long as a decade and cost more than £100 million.
Some of those who said he abused them are believed to have told police they went on to commit sexual abuse themselves as a result.
Operation Conifer was set up in 2015 in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal, but Mr Veale came under pressure to abandon it last year after separate claims of a paedophile ring at Westminster involving the late former Home Secretary Lord Brittan and ex-Defence chief Lord Bramall were found to be groundless.
The claims investigated by Wiltshire Police, understood to date from the 1960s to 1990s, are not linked to the discredited evidence of the man known as ‘Nick’, who made the false claims against Lord Brittan and Lord Bramall. The Met has now apologised and paid a reported £100,000 compensation.
Allegations that Sir Edward was involved in satanic orgies have been dismissed as fantasy by one expert asked to review the case.
Several senior politicians have dismissed allegations against Heath as absurd and unfounded. Former Tory Foreign Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind complained Sir Edward’s reputation was being ‘besmirched’.
Former Cabinet Secretary Lord Armstrong of Ilminster, who was Sir Edward’s private secretary in No 10, criticised the inquiry in a letter to The Times last week, saying the allegations were ‘totally uncharacteristic and unlikely.’
Lord Armstrong referred to unspecified ‘concerns about the conduct of the inquiry’ and called for ‘an independent review of the investigation by a retired judge’.
And Wiltshire Tory MP James Gray said: ‘I do not believe the allegations against Sir Edward. If Mr Veale fails to justify his inquiry, he will be in serious difficulties.’
Sir Edward’s sexuality has been the source of speculation for decades. Some believed he was gay, others said he was asexual. At one point, he was being investigated by five police forces: the Met, Wiltshire, Hampshire, Kent and Jersey.
The claims, some of which were proved false, include alleged links to a convicted brothel keeper known as Madam Ling-Ling.
A paedophile dossier compiled by Labour peer Baroness Castle, a member of Harold Wilson’s Labour Government in the 1970s, said Sir Edward offered young boys trips on his yacht. In a separate incident, one man claimed Sir Edward picked him up in the 1960s when he was a 12-year-old hitchhiking in Kent and lured him to his Mayfair flat.
A IICSA spokesman declined to say if the change in its official stance, as detailed on the website, was to enable it to consider the findings of Mr Veale’s report.
Wiltshire Police said it had not yet sent its findings to the national inquiry, but expected to do so within the next six weeks.
- REPORTING TEAM: Simon Walters, Glen Owen, Martin Beckford and Brendan Carlin
Thirty alleged victims and an inquiry mired in controversy
By Martin Beckford
The police investigation into Sir Edward Heath was controversial from the very beginning.
Superintendent Sean Memory stood outside the gates of Arundells, the late PM’s home in Salisbury, to declare in a televised statement that ‘anyone who believes they may have been a victim’ should come forward.
Wiltshire Police has since acknowledged this was inappropriate, while Supt Memory is now on sick leave and being investigated for misconduct over an unrelated matter.
FLASHBACK: How The Mail on Sunday has reported the probe
The original claim under investigation was that the trial of a brothel keeper had once collapsed because she threatened to reveal how she procured boys for Heath.
But the Independent Police Complaints Commission watchdog later said there was no evidence of a cover-up.
More than a dozen people came forward to make allegations against Heath, who died in 2005 and who had been widely regarded as ‘completely asexual’ by friends.
Detectives were accused of going on a ‘fishing expedition’ by interviewing former Downing Street staff, Heath’s yacht crew and even the editor of Private Eye magazine, which had published jokes about ‘Sailor Heath’.
The most contentious allegation, however, was that Heath was linked to a network of paedophiles who held satanic orgies and stabbed children in churches.
The lurid claims were dismissed as fantasy by an expert in ritual abuse cases. Dr Rachel Hoskins concluded they were false memories unearthed in therapy.
She was also alarmed to discover that detectives were studying the discredited statements made by a man known only as ‘Nick’, who had falsely accused military chiefs and MPs, including Heath, of being part of a murderous VIP sex ring. After The Mail on Sunday revealed the astonishing allegations, Wiltshire Chief Constable Mike Veale strongly defended his investigation, declaring in a rare open letter: ‘This is not a “fishing trip” or “witch-hunt”.’
Earlier this year this newspaper told how Mr Veale is convinced the claims against Heath are ‘120 per cent’ genuine.
The number of alleged victims to come forward has risen to more than 30 and some of their accounts are ‘strikingly similar’.
Because Heath is dead and so cannot stand trial, his guilt or innocence can never be proven, and so the controversy over the accusations will likely continue long after Operation Conifer finishes its work.
My party may not like it, but there must not be a cover-up, says Andrew Bridgen, MP for North West Leicestershire
I was greatly concerned when I read a letter in the Times on Friday concerning the police inquiry into claims of historic child sexual abuse by former Prime Minister Sir Edward Heath.
The letter from Lord Armstrong of Ilminster, who was Sir Edward’s Downing Street private secretary, criticises Operation Conifer, led by Wiltshire Chief Constable Mike Veale.
It refers to unspecified ‘concerns about [its] conduct’ and calls for ‘an independent review of the investigation by a retired judge’. In my view this is both unjustified and improper.
Lord Armstrong, who went on to become Cabinet Secretary, has made no secret of the fact that he thinks Sir Edward is innocent. He has described the allegations as ‘totally uncharacteristic and unlikely’.
With all due to respect to Lord Armstrong, I believe he would be well advised not to interfere.
He is not the only one who has criticised Mr Veale: he has been vilified by sections of the media and some of my fellow Conservative MPs.
My message to them is: Leave Mr Veale to do his job.
The timing of Lord Armstrong’s intervention is no coincidence. Mr Veale has indicated that he intends to publish a summary of the findings of Operation Conifer shortly. It would be wholly wrong if the Establishment had any part in this investigation.
It is natural that some will be sceptical about the investigation into Sir Edward. A separate inquiry by the Metropolitan Police, called Operation Midland, collapsed last year after the main allegations were found to be groundless.
For decades, rumours about Jimmy Savile were dismissed by institutions such as the BBC, terrified about the impact of negative publicity on their reputation
Mr Veale declined calls to abandon his inquiry on the grounds that he believed the allegations concerning Sir Edward deserved to be taken seriously, on their own merit.
I congratulate him for doing so. I believe he is an honest, courageous and diligent police officer who deserves the chance to complete his investigation and announce his findings in public.
There are powerful voices who would like to silence Operation Conifer. My own party will be severely embarrassed if it transpires the claims against Sir Edward were true. But that is no reason for covering it up.
We have been here before. For decades, rumours about Jimmy Savile were dismissed by institutions such as the BBC, terrified about the impact of negative publicity on their reputation. It seems we have not learned our lesson. Sometimes the unthinkable does occur, and our knee-jerk reaction should not be to put a lid on it.
A brief period followed during which the chastened forces looked into historic allegations of abuse. But the process was tainted by a few bad apples who spotted the chance to revel in the limelight – and possibly make some money in the process.
But that should not be used by the Establishment as an excuse to shelve the entire process.
For all the problems associated with investigating these historic allegations, we have learned the hard way the perils of sweeping them under the carpet.
If we assume that all accusers are fantasists, we compound the distress of genuine victims who have carried their burden in secret for years.
As an MP, I have taken a close interest in trying to help these victims – the powerless against the powerful, battling to be heard when the weight of the state is lined up against them.
That is why Chief Constable Veale must be allowed to complete his investigation, free of intimidation of any sort.
Referring to the inquiry, set up when she was Home Secretary, Theresa May said last week: ‘If we turn a blind eye to this abuse, as has happened too much in the past, more crimes will be committed and more children will be suffering in silence.’
The Prime Minister is right.
August 22 2017 – “Reporter Who Exposed BBC Pedophilia Cover-Up Found Dead” – News Punch
https://newspunch.com/reporter-bbc-pedophilia-dead/
Reporter Who Exposed BBC Pedophilia Cover Up Found Dead
Liz MacKean, the former British investigative reporter who exposed Jimmy Savile and the culture of pedophile protection at the BBC, has been found dead. She was 52.
MacKean worked at the BBC until she quit in 2013 after executives decided to ban her groundbreaking and brave investigation into predatory pedophile Jimmy Savile in order to protect him and other pedophiles.
Dismissed by the establishment as mad and dangerous, MacKean was finally vindicated when the truth about Savile’s pedophilia eventually came out in 2012, a full year after MacKean first tried to bring his notorious crimes to light.
The BBC, who blocked her groundbreaking investigation from airing and spent the next few years attempting to destroy her reputation, are reporting that she died of “complications from a stroke.”
Acknowledging her life was under threat during the time she was investigating Savile and BBC elites, MacKean said her conscience left her no option but to pursue the truth and expose the culture of pedophila. The mother of two children believed it was her duty.
When it became public that BBC News blocked her investigation from airing, she admitted on Panorama: “I was very unhappy the story didn’t run because I felt we’d spoken to people who collectively deserved to be heard. And they weren’t heard.
“I thought that that was a failure… I felt we had a responsibility towards them. We got them to talk to us, but above all, we did believe them. And so then, for their stories not to be heard, I felt very bad about that. I felt, very much, that I’d let them down.”
Big name stars
Liz MacKean is the second high profile BBC journalist to die in suspicious circumstances after attempting to expose the truth about the pedophile ring operating in the upper reaches of the establishment. Jill Dando, former Crimewatch host, also tried to alert her bosses to the pedophile ring at the BBC, warning that “big name” stars were implicated.
Jill Dando, who was 37, was shot dead on April 26, 1999 on the doorstep of her West London home in a crime that still remains unsolved.
Before she died, Dando had passed a file to senior management in the mid-1990s, proving that big name BBC stars, including Savile, were involved in a pedophile ring, but senior management chose to cover up the child abuse rather than organize and investigation.
“No one wanted to know” when Dando raised concerns about the alleged ring and other sexual abuse claims at the BBC, according to a former colleague and friend.
“I don’t recall the names of all the stars now and don’t want to implicate anyone, but Jill said they were surprisingly big names.
“I think she was quite shocked when told about images of children and that information on how to join this horrible paedophile ring was freely available.
“Jill said others had complained to her about sexual matters and that some female workmates also claimed they had been groped or assaulted.
“Nothing had been done and there seemed to be a policy of turning a blind eye.”
The former colleague said female BBC staff confided in Jill, one of the best-known TV faces of the day after fronting primetime shows including Holiday and the Six O’Clock News as well as Crimewatch.’
The source said: “I think it was in the mid-1990s. She was seen as the face of the BBC and a magnet for women with problems.

“Church Protected Paedophile Bishop” – The Argus – Front Page – June 23 2017
http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/15366174.Church_helped_to_cover_up_sexual_abuse/
Church helped to cover up sexual abuse
THE Church of England “colluded” with and helped to hide the long-term sexual abuse of young men by one its bishops rather than help his victims, the Archbishop of Canterbury has said.
The Most Rev Justin Welby’s statement came as the Church published Abuse Of Faith, an independent review of how it handled the case of Peter Ball, the former Bishop of Lewes who was jailed for 32 months at the Old Bailey in 2015 after pleading guilty to a string of historical offences, including two counts of indecent assault.
The review, chaired by Dame Moira Gibb, found that “Ball’s conduct has caused serious and enduring damage to the lives of many men”.
It stated: “Peter Ball betrayed his Church and abused individual followers of that Church.
“The Church at its most senior levels and over many years supported him unwisely and displayed little care for his victims.
“Much of what we have described took place in different times and should be viewed from that perspective.
“But such perverse and sustained abuse by a senior figure in the Church and the Church’s failure to safeguard so many boys and young men still casts a long shadow.”
During his time as bishop, Ball hand-picked 18 vulnerable victims to commit acts of “debasement” in the name of religion, such as praying naked at the altar and encouraging them to submit to beatings, his trial heard.
The Archbishop described the report as “harrowing reading”, adding: “The Church colluded and concealed rather than seeking to help those who were brave enough to come forward.
“This is inexcusable and shocking behaviour and, although Dame Moira notes that most of the events took place many years ago, and does not think that the Church now would conduct itself in the ways described, we can never be complacent; we must learn lessons.”
He restated his “unreserved apology” to the victims who had been brave enough to come forward, adding: “There are no excuses whatsoever for what took place and the systematic abuse of trust perpetrated by Peter Ball over the decades.”
There is criticism in the review of Lord Carey, who was the Archbishop of Canterbury at the time, and other senior figures in the Church, saying the Church was “most interested in protecting itself”.
The review states that Lambeth Palace’s actions, especially in failing to pass on six letters of allegations to the police, while giving them one which was of “least concern”… “must give rise to a perception of deliberate concealment”.
The review points out that the Church’s management of those seven letters, containing allegations against Ball, was perhaps “its greatest failure in these events”.
The NSPCC spoke of its disgust at the findings.
A spokesperson said: “It is utterly disgraceful to discover that collusion at the heart of the Church of England led to the abuse of so many young men and boys. Abuse can happen in any institution or walk of life and we must ensure it can never be covered up by the powerful. Abuse in our most revered institutions must be exposed and investigated, offenders brought to justice, and victims given confidence to come forward.”
ARCHBISHOP CALLS ON LORD CAREY TO STAND DOWN FOLLOWING RELEASE OF DAMNING REPORT
THE archbishop of Canterbury has asked his predecessor George Carey to step down as an honorary assistant bishop.
Lord Carey was singled out for criticism in yesterday’s report, with it stating he was more concerned with protecting the church rather than the victims.
In particular, it refers to Lambeth Palace’s failure to pass on six letters of allegations to the police.
Instead it forwarded one letter which was described as being of “least concern”.
The report stated this “must give rise to a perception of deliberate concealment”. It added that management of the seven letters was perhaps the church’s “greatest failure”.
It stated: “The letters came from a range of families and individuals quite independently of each other. They raised concerns which were all either indirectly or precisely suggestive of sexual impropriety, or worse, by Ball.
“These were not people who were at war with the Church or had any axe to grind. In fact, some of the correspondents go to great lengths to try to avoid rancour and find a constructive way forward.”
The report found that Lord Carey was significantly involved in the way the Church treated victim Neil Todd in 1992/1993. Despite years of abuse in Sussex, Ball was able to leave the diocese in 1992 to take up his post as Bishop of Gloucester.
A year later, the then 16-year-old trainee monk Neil Todd prompted a police investigation which led to Ball’s resignation from the clergy. Ball escaped with a police caution in 1993 for an act of gross indecency against Mr Todd who took his own life in 2012.
Lord Carey described the paedophile bishop as “basically innocent” and said he had a “very high” regard for him in a September 1993 letter to Ball’s brother Michael.
The review, which said Lord Carey had played a leading role in enabling Ball to return to ministry, described this comment as “alarming”. It added: “Ball was basically guilty and had admitted that. Lord Carey was also aware that the Church had received further allegations of potentially criminal actions by Ball.”
Current Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said the review made for harrowing reading.
Steven Croft, the bishop of Oxford, said Mr Welby had written to Lord Carey asking him to “carefully consider his position”. Mr Croft and Lord Carey will meet “in the coming days for that conversation. In the meantime he has voluntarily agreed to step back from public ministry”.

“Conservative Government Threatened By Sex Scandals” – ‘Aangirfan’ – October 23 2015
http://aanirfan.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/conservative-government-threatened-by.html
Friday, 23 October 2015
CONSERVATIVE GOVERNMENT THREATENED BY SEX SCANDALS
The Kray twins, who knew everyone from Judy Garland to Frank Sinatra.
Some years ago, a child sex abuse scandal threatened to bring down the UK’s Conservative government, according to recently released government files.
The files reveal that Lord Boothby’s relationship with the gangster Kray Twins was known to government ministers, the police and the security service.
The Kray Twins supplied boys to the elite.
So there had to be a cover-up.
Macmillan (right)
1963 was a difficult year for the Conservative Party.
Victor Rothschild‘s friend, the spy Kim Philby, fled from Britain in 1963.
There was a risk that Victor Rothschild himself might be exposed as a traitor.
In 1963, the Conservative government minister Jack Profumo resigned from the government, due to his relationship with Christine Keeler, a friend of the Kray Twins.
Christine Keeler and the Kray Twins (nickelinthemachine)
Meanwhile, the Conservative Party’s Lord Boothby had developed his links to the Kray Twins.
Harold Macmillan resigned as UK Prime Minister in October 1963.
The saga of Boothby and the Kray Twins was revealed by the Sunday Mirror in 1964.
Cliff Richard and Lord Boothby
The Kray Twins were sadistic gay gangsters with links to top politicians, TV stars, the police and at least one pedophile ring.
The Krays have a link to the child abuse island of Jersey.
In a hotel in Jersey, the Krays would meet their friends in the UK police and carrier bags of money would change hands.
Edward Heath’s chief mentor and friend was Madron Seligman (above right), who was descended from a family of German Jewish bankers, and who was a friend of the Rothschilds.
“Edward Heath, Prime Minister of England from 1970-74… was a frequent visitor to the Haute Garrene childrens care home on Jersey.”
(WHY THE JUSTICE SYSTEM FAVOURS PEDOPHILES)
Dorothy, in the Wizard of Oz.
Many top politicians have been ‘Friends of Dorothy’ (gay).
Many top politicians who have been Friends of Dorothy have been married.
There would appear to be some sort of ‘Zionist controlled Mafia’ containing politicians who are Friends of Dorothy.
(Judy Garland and Friends of Dorothy – Wikipedia)
Lady Dorothy Macmillan, wife of former UK prime minister Harold Macmillan.
Harold Macmillan would have known about Boothby and the Kray Twins.
Reportedly, Harold Macmillan, the UK’s Conservative Party Prime Minister from 1957-1963, was expelled from the top private school called Eton for ‘homosexual perversion’.
(Did Rothschild Blackmail UK To Aid Israel in 1956?)
Harold macmillan was tutored for Oxford by Ronald Knox.
Macmillan fell in love with Ronald knox.
Macmillan “under pressure” married Dorothy.
Lord Goodman , a powerful British Jew, protected people like Tom Driberg MP, Sir Anthony Blunt and Lord Boothby “who were regularly seen at parties with rent boys and arrested at public toilets.”
Goodman
Reportedly Lord Goodman pushed ‘the Rothschild plan’ that Britain must intervene on Israel’s behalf over Suez.
T Stokes asks: Did Rothschild Blackmail UK To Aid Israel in 1956?
Did Israel blackmail certain UK politicians into supporting the Suez invasion?
Harold Macmillan
In the spring of 1956, Lady Dorothy Macmillan’s brother, the 19th Duke of Devonshire Edward Cavendish ‘dropped dead’ in front of his doctor, Dr. John Bodkin Adams .
John Bodkin Adams was ‘a member of the homosexual underground’ and close to Sir Anthony Blunt and Lord Goodman.
John Bodkin Adams. The police acquired a memorandum belonging to a Daily Mail journalist, concerning rumours of homosexuality between “a police officer, a magistrate, and a doctor”. The latter directly implied Adams. The ‘magistrate’ was Sir Roland Gwynne,Mayor of Eastbourne from 1929 to 1931 and brother of Rupert Gwynne, MP for Eastbourne from 1910 to 1924. The ‘police officer’ was the Deputy Chief Constable of Eastbourne, Alexander Seekings.
Bodkin Adams was arrested as over 160 of his patients had died mysteriously, 132 of them writing the doctor into their wills.
Eliza Manningham-Buller, former head of the UK security service MI5
“Harold Macmillan, and the then Attorney General, Reginald Manningham-Buller, were both related to one of Dr Adams’ likely victims….
“A homosexual relationship existed between Adams and a powerful local politician, who had protected him for over thirty years.”
(The Case of Dr. John Bodkin Adams – A Stranger in Blood)
Reginald Manningham-Buller’s daughter Eliza Manningham-Buller was active in MI5 from 1974-2007, and became boss of MI5 in 2002.
She was active at the time of the Lockerbie bombing.
Thorpe
There would appear to be a homosexual underground involving top politicians.
Take the trial of former UK Liberal party leader Jeremy Thorpe’s.
The trial reportedly revealed that boys from care homes were exploited with alcohol and drugs at parties called ‘pink ballets’ over many years.
“This was the reason Thorpe got off: his threat to expose what he knew of those in power.”
Boys from UK care homes “have been used by senior men, in one case for over 40 years.”
Brad Lane with Reggie Kray at Gartree prison. (Yorkshire Post)
Bobby Teale, who once worked for the Krays, has written a book called “Bringing Down the Krays”.
According to Teale, the Krays had paid informers at every level inside the police force.
Lord Boothby, who was a close personal friend of Winston Churchill, apparently had a sexual relationship with Ronnie Kray.
William Ives, a major donor to David Cameron’s Conservative Party, reportedly worked for gangsters Ronnie and Reggie Kray. (Website)
George Raft and the Kray Twins (nickelinthemachine)
According to this source – Archives – the Krays ran a paedophile ring.
“What was involved was the systematic abuse of ten-to-twelve-year-old boys, one of whom subsequentlybecame fairly well known as a singer.
“Another, rather less fortunate,wound up in six pieces in two suitcases…
“The paedophile ring in question had links to the Kray twins.”
More information is found here –Archives
“The police uncovered a large-scale juvenile pimping operation centred on a house in a Suffolk village (Tattington) owned by Ronnie Kray.
(The twins had huge property interests in East Anglia).
“Some of the boys were obtained via a close friend of (Benjamin) Britten’s in London, who named him as one of the beneficiaries of the ‘service’: other’customers’ included Lord Boothby (who frequently shared boys with Ronnie Kray himself) and the record producer Joe Meek.
“At least two other people died in the aftermath of Bernard’s murder as the twins sealed up the leaks.”
Boy by Lucian Freud.
Lucien Freud had a ‘relationship’ with the Kray twins.
Lucian Freud was the brother of Clement Freud and uncle of Matthew Freud and Emma Freud.
Lucian Freud
Matthew Freud is married to Elisabeth Murdoch, daughter of Rupert Murdoch.
Clement Freud helped the parents of missing child Madeleine McCann by cooking them dinners in Praia da Luz
(aangirfan: FREUD, MADELEINE McCANN, MURDOCH)
Emma Freud recommended the ‘bed-hopping bisexual’ Millie Dobie toGordon Brown
(aangirfan: GORDON BROWN AND HIS TRAINER)
Judy Garland and the UK’s Kray Twins (Another Nickel In The Machine – 2). Judy Garland was said to be a victim of brain washing by the spooks.
The spooks and the police protect child abuse rings?
Sir Joseph Simpson (1909 – 1968) was the head of the London Metropolitan Police, from 1958 to 1968.
Simpson apparently turned a blind eye to the crimes of the major London gangsters known as the Kray Twins.
(http://www.personenencyclopedie.info…bertjohngraham)
“Even when they turned to murder, there was no attempt to catch them.”
(Cached)
Some very powerful and spooky people were at work.
Christine Keeler and the Kray Twins (nickelinthemachine) The Christine Keeler-Profumo scandal helped Harold Wilson, friend of Israel, to become UK prime minister.
The Krays were Jewish and gay.
Among the characters in their lives were:
Lord Boothby, who was very close to Winston Churchill, and who liked masochistic sex with rent boys.
Boothby’s close pal Tom Driberg MP, who was a rent-boy loving spook with links to Russia and hence Israel.
(Notorious : The Immortal Legend Of The Kray Twins, by John Pearson /Sex, lies, Downing Street and the cover-up that left the Krays …)
The same old story over and over again, nobody saw anything, heard anything, did anything or will, everyone is innocent. OK, whats next?

Rupert Murdoch is getting antsy that his beloved Tories are about to be destroyed. His rag, “The Sun”, has recently run two stories. The first being about a Filippina procuress who claimed that Heath was not a pedo just a lonely homosexual. The second story concerned an alleged apology from MP, Tom Watson, for implicating Leon Britten in a paedophile scandal.
It is sickening that the Krays continue to be portrayed as kind of heroes with their own cottage industry.

I am in agreement, it is disgusting seeing those two on the cover of a movie in my current entertainment streaming sites just knowing the kind of filth and debauchery those two have engaged in and the consequences for the world of their actions.

Isn’t that the popular rumor or has it been corroborated that Kray’s steel company was the one to bid to take away all of the twin towers thermite laden and nuke radioactive steel from NY as an intermediary for an Indian reprocessing center?
I think so.
ASolo
ASolo, What! Kray’s steel company? Who’s that then?
annifan needs to examine the very close links between Murdoch and the Kidman family and the McMahon family in Australia. Former PM McMahon was the father of Julian McMahon and Nicole & Julian’s fame far outstrips their talent. The McMahons, Kidmans and Murdochs are all very close friends and holiday together. They have been close for generations.
I should have probably fact checked that one before opening my mouth, I cannot find the reference and remember reading it somewhere but it cannot be corroborated.
According to FEMA, more than 350,000 tons of steel were extracted from Ground Zero and barged or trucked to salvage yards where it was cut up for recycling. Four salvage yards were contracted to process the steel.

The Chinese firm Baosteel purchased 50,000 tons at a rate of $120 per ton. The bulk of the steel was apparently shipped to China and India.

And I agree that Aang should look deeper into the Australian pedophile ring and most definitely has more in store for us. I did a cursory examination of some of this information and it gets rich. Aangirfan did an article in 2013 about how deep some of these connections go and they touched upon the cult’s involvement with a Peter Holowczak who was a transplanted Nazi and war criminal, here: http://aanirfan.blogspot.com/2014/05/pedophile-ring-exposed-australian.html
And here:
http://aangirfan.blogspot.com/2013/05/child-abuse-poland-uk-australia-usa.html
The testimony is from a one Tor Neilsen
There are DEEP MK-Ultra connections:
“I recall being sleep deprived. I recall being drugged. I recall being subjected to unethical hypnosis.
“I recall being subjected to brainwashing involving a synthesiser that continuously played the words “Know this spirit” up and down the keyboard. I recall people chanting nursery rhymes. I recall a man chanting a Batman, Catwoman, and Joker themed chant; one section involved 9 levels represented by ‘9 cat lives’; he stopped at the 6th level and sang: “Number six, number six, what do we have at number six? Number six has lots of tricks…there are SIX spirits at number six!”
I found it quite interesting as well that the actor from the long gone series Nip-Tuck and the anti-hero of the Marvel Fantastic Four series Julian McMahon is wrapped up in all of this. He does seem to have a dark aura about him.

Some interesting comments from the link above:
“Aang and Anobody,
Bruce spence, toms x and the whole lot of them..i dare say many “entertainers” theatre elites and “personalities” are all part of the nazi zionist mafia death cult…There is a definite undercurrent in certain circles in Sydney (where i’m from) of the so called elite and well off “creative” set.
ditto melboure..etc etc.
movies like bliss, don’s party, the emerald city….all have this undercurrent..
High class/ low class doesn’t matter the level where it occurs
it exists and prospers and MK is multi generational tool for keeping the “show” going.
A satanic gravy train of punishment and reward.

Hi, I am the author of the article regarding the elite Australian pedo/SRA ring. I have detailed my story at pedophilesdownunder.wordpress.com.
Someone mentioned actor Bruce Spence (mad max, dimboola). He raped me during the ritual at Bathurst.
I submitted an article to editor of a popular Australian news journal, regarding a paedophile ring in northern New South Wales, involving NSW education department, police, child protection DoCS. Witness told me every police officer transfer to local are is a Catholic if they can help it. What a coincidence. If this story breaks, it is bigger than Newcastle or Victoria.
i will post updates on twitter @KateGardiner666

There’s a powder keg waiting to blow down there in Australia which could blow the lid (one of the lids) off of the UK AND American pedophile industry.

I hope annifan gets onto Fiona Barnett’s latest disclosures of the satanic paedophile ring that operated in Australia’s Parliament House. These scandals are now breaking in the mainstream media.Fiona has named 2 of the Australian PMs privately but I can reveal them now as they are deceased. Gough Whitlam who fancied young Asian boys and Sir William McMahon who is the father of Hollywood actor Julian McMahon. The McMahons and the Kidmans grew up together. Were Nicole Kidman and Julian inducted into the cult as their families were very close. Bill McMahon was thought to be gay and married on orders from is political masters but we all knew he was a pedo. ( he is not believed to eb the biological father of Julian) The other is still living former PM Bob Hawke who is a CIA asset and travels exstensively to Burma & Thailand to indulge in his tastes for young boys. Hawke has aided powerful generals in both countries to invest money safely in Australia and is rewarded with young boys. Whitlam was removed by a CIA organised scandal in Oz when he tried to close down the US Pine Gap spy station in the outback.. They threatened to reveal his pedo habits. What also needs examining is how Nicole Kidman and Julian McMahon rose to such prominence in Hollywood and then the world. Both are not very good actors but their fame & wealth outstrips their talent. It was always claimed that Kidman & Cruise were devil worshippers
