SADIQ KHAN GETS DICK OUT

 N.B. - I have had relatives who have served in the MET and in counter-terrorism. The criticisms of the MET below are specific to  crimes and officers and are not to be taken as a criticism of most or all serving officers.


So it's been a week since a shock announcement shortly before 7pm on Thursday 10 February 2022.

On the 9th the Commissioner of the MET Police once again reiterrated that she was staying put. The following day Dame Cressida Dick submitted a proposal to the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, on MET reforms. Khan had already abruptly  moved from confidence in the Commissioner to saying she "was on borrowed time." Whatever Cressida put under his nose he did not like the smell of it and the British gentlemanly firing occurred: he said he had 'no confidence' and she submitted her resignation; and kept a massive termination of contract payout (£785,000) and a police pension of £160,000 per annum.

Many could have told the Mayor of  London that a large section of the public lost confidence in Cressida Dick long ago. LBC has a yearly public 'Ask The Mayor' in a hall in  London. This broadcast gets heated when the MET Police and the Commissioner are the topic. People asking questions about murdered relatives and abuse victims are told repeatedly to stop as they could be arrested. The response from these questioners is,"Come and arrest me." That is how reviled the head of the MET Police has been for a long time. 

It has also been revealed that there is a large volume of abusive and unprofessional messages circulating amoung some officers.  Charing Cross Police Station was identified as one of the centres of this.

For the anonymity of victims and future prosecutions some information is withheld.  There are other cases and issues which are not written about here-

WOOLWICH CASES-

One set of cases I have been fighting years to get justice for are the victims of a number of violent white youths & young men living in the Glyndon Ward  in Woowich, SE 28.
This includes the case I have raised repeatedly on social media of a neighbour: a young black mother who was racially threatened and nearly knifed in front of her three year old child.  She was saved by a neighbour in a wheelchair who confronted the three 18 year olds.
I was away for a few days and returned the following day to see her crying while detailing to a police sergeant what had happened to her. Her life was in danger. I was a victim of an unprovoked GBH by the same men and was told "Next time I'm  gonna knife you." That very nearly did happen on more than occassion.  I informed the police immediately when I was attacked, only after my local college insisted they call an ambulance first as there was blood pouring out of my  face.
So an immediate statement was followed four days later with a signed statement at CID Plumstead.  Two hours later,  as I finally made my way out of London for a couple of weeks,  I saw my attackers, phoned my CID contact immediately and he did nothing! This is half a mile from Plumstead Police Station; he did nothing about a violent gang who had come close to blinding me. He also did not collect the     CCTV footage that I told him was at the college showing me arriving. The police have repeatedly said the street cameras "were pointing the wrong way." That can be disproved by walking down a train platform which has the same layout of CCTV.

When I spoke at the college I was studying at, a load more students  came forward to the Principal that they had been threatened, mugged or assaulted. The college immediately contacted the local police and officers did do something probably from the same set of uniformed officers I first saw after my GBH.  But nothing more appears to have been done after the initial police information gathering.
-In the same area a 16 year old was knifed to death in 2007. The murder was never solved and there was evidence pointing at the same people who  attacked myself, my neighbour ( she was still terrified in her own home months later; unsurprising living so close to her attackers) and others.  It was only in 2021 a specialist police unit added additional identifying details and the llinkto the 2007 murder. Previous contact with the CID Plumstead had only met with excuses and apathy.

At the time I was living in Woolwich I was committed to bringing these local violent and racist thugs to justice. I contacted Greenwich Council,a supposedly left-wing council who also made excuses and PR bumf which I criticised them for. Then suddenly my  Housing Benefit was stopped and I was made homeless by Greenwich Council.
 

I contacted a number of activists, organisations and MPs including  Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbot through to this year. With a few notable exceptions  they have remained silent on this MET Police failure regarding serious and racial violence.

WHITECHAPEL-
Police entered the home of a woman, whose relatives were unable to contact. I was the first person the police spoke to after the police and her daughter found her dead.  I have never heard the police so angry, they were convinced it was a homicide and later did give a few forensic details which also appear in my forensic  books. I'm withholding details on this case to prevent issues of subjudicy.  The police opened a murder investigation. Some years later I requested details from the archive. The file was not in the archive, and the archieist suddenly changed from friendly to hostile after a query was submitted to the MET as to what had happened to the file.
The MET have sent a letter with a prewritten excuse as to why the file is missing. The falseness of the claim in the letter is easily disproved. There is also a MET letter here which shows a disturbing lack of basic  knowledge of Death Certificates by many MET officers.

CASE X-
Years of excuses from Islington CID regarding what every professional who has heard the details has described as an immediate murder investigation. There is written proof that CID officers destroyed signed statements and other evidence provided to them. More than once too. A Detective Inspector Alex phoned me and the first thing he angrily demanded was "Who told you this was a murder case." Didn't like it when I pointed out some of the people who had stated that, He promised to get back to me in a week. Never happened.

This case has also shown a critical flaw in the Police Reform Act 2002   and the current Policing Bill going through Parliament. Complaints against the MET can be passed to the the MET's Conduct Dept. They use the P.R.A. to refuse to even look at evidence or information. Instead they claim "it has been investigated." Another lie easy to disprove: the complaint contains new information which has not been submitted before. There is no previous information since the police never recorded any information supplied. Repeated FOI requests have had no response. Again that is contrary to the rules and IOPC requests remain unanswered.


-Further information has been redacted to avoid  sub judice.

******************************************************
Myself and my family have had other contacts with the police over the decades and have had positive if limited results with uniformed officers (there have been a few very different experiences for a different post) and some good CID and specialist officers. But for years it has been a completely negative experience with a number of CID depts in different parts of the MET.



SAPPHIRE RAPE UNITS-
This is an outrage I have  brough up repeatedly with the MET during my contacts as a demonstartion of corruption and apathy amoung some depts and officers.
In 2010 the IPCC published a report that the MET Sapphire Rape Units had illegally refused to record reported sexual crime in order to massage down the crime stats.  Some of the men reported by the women were later convicted of other rapes. The MET did discipline some officers.  Others were later promoted.  This and other cases where the police are proven to have ignored victims of violence and sexual assault including multiple victims, demonstrate that it's often a lie when police, government and council PR clain "lessons have been learned, we are committed to prosecution, we uphold the law."


ANDREW JONES-
One of the families I am in contact with, their son was murdered, while two police officers sat in a car and saw it happen.  The coroner shouted at the police in the Coroners Court. The case was featured more than once on BBC's CrimeWatch. The indentities of the attackers are known. The Chief Constable of Liverpool promised the family that he was personally investigate the police failure. Nothing happened. He was later promoted to MET Commissioner. He is Bernard Hogan-Howe.


DANIEL MORGAN-

I met Daniel a few times.  He and dad had offices next to eachother for a time. The day that Daniel was murdered, he contacted dad to meet him. Dad gave a couple of details but it was only in 2021 I was told more by a relative of what had happened; dad had played it down so as not to worry us. Daniel was very worried. He had uncovered something and said that his life would be in danger. This and other details of the conversation they had, dad tried repeatedly to tell the MET. 

He was ejected from police stations a couple of times. Using contacts, he had a top security clearance back then was able to pass a message to senior MET dept via a government department. The MET responded with an immediate refusal to receive any information.  

A document appeared in the recent period showing CID burying a revived Daniel Morgan's murder investigation in the 1990s. Commissioner Cressida Dick did everything she could to avoid cooperating with the 8 year inquiry into Daniel's murder.

Churchill leaves Oval Office again

 So Biden obviously will be doing some good, a stopped clock is right twice a day, and that applied to his predecessor. However by early Feb. its looking like State control & restsrictions are increaasing. On a small but revealing matter he has already removed Churchill's bust. WC had many political faults, a direct enemy to the Irish part of my family a 100 years ago, his career would have been a study in failing except for the crisis of 1940. Had some Labour MPs not got their way by making Churchill PM, then the alternative was a peace deal meaning that all the Empire countries troops would have ceased fighting,leaving no country fighting Nazism.

 This would have freed up the Axis Powers to attack USSR in full force & at the best time of year, April. Unlimited oil supply from North Africa & MIddle East. FDR unable to persuade Congress to support a declaration of war against the genocidial Reich. Holocaust taken further with the added genocides Himmler wanted,Jewish extermination was just the beginning of his plans. What the Einsatzgruppen did in Russia is actual Nazism.

 This is why Churchill's bust has been in the Oval Office,making the difficult decision to continuing fighting evil & terror when it appeared unstoppable. The Oval Office should have MARSHAL ZHUKOV's bust next to Churchill,assuming that Stalin is a step too far for a President; which would be understable. 

One of Churchill's most disastrous decisions, the lack of action on the Bengal Famine, is consistent with his mentality. Same time that was happening, certain German officers were able to have launched a full scale uprising,1943 was when a rebellion against Hitler would received its most resources & support. They got a message to Churchill asking what would be the conditions for peace. Churchill replied,"unconditional surrender." The uprising never happened. Even it had failed the chaos it would have inflicted on the Reich would have made a proposal worth it.

 That mentality of seeing matters in uncompromising absolutes was recurring inc. the decision on the French navy near Morocco. For all his mistakes & some unpleasant attitudes, it was Eastern Europe & the USSR who saw what evil could be committed when the likes of a chicken farmer, a vacuum salesman & some ruthless bastards would do when given power and the death toll & torture would have been on a greater scale throughout Europe & Asia under the Japanese Empire if Churchill had not become the premiere 







Pretty Words do not make you a socialist, Comrade

  

 Just to offset any complaints from those who think  they are on the Left: both my parents are from hard Left constituiences. Which included Communist coucillors & a Communist MP, who would have objected to the censorious attituide of the post modern Left. Some inlaws were part of the Trotskyite union attempt to remove Labour PM Harold Wilson.  Direct ancestors on the Irish side led various political parties, revolutions/uprisings & paramilitary groups.  All that is a bit more than going for a stroll on a sunny Saturday with a placard

So one of the things last year that had me swearing at the news like a normal sane person was the Leicester East sweatshops. Labour MP who backed Corbyn (who with a load of reservations I did vote to make leader & voted 2017: for DWP,housing etc reforms). Labour,ILP,Workers Congress etc their foundation was abolition of exploitation of all forms but the Leicester East cllrs have been silent for decades. Unlike the women who played a central role in the earliest stages of what later became the Labour Party through their opposition to their employers exploitation. 

The councillors will know owners of these sweat shops. Espousing a couple of Socialist principles doesn't make them Labour; they are traitors to Labour & the Workers; Claudia Webb & predecessors did nothing. The Colston statue was similarly revealing: it should have been in a museum decades ago.99% wouldn't have known what the statue was until last year's bandwagon meant some found a conscience that wasn't stimulated by more contemporary outrages. 

In Bristol there is an example of forced labour,slave labour, inc. mass killings of Africans & Asians. But the protesters ignored all that to focus on a lump of bronze. To get selfies to show on the Net how moral they are, the protesters went past Barclays Bank which has been convicted for supplying money to horrific regimes in recent years, & there will be others. 

Not even something as small as fly posting over the bank's or other intituitons windows of their crimes. Neither them nor Corbyn's MPs have said a single word about what happened to my neighbour,other cases or the many other discrimination or violence occurring. A black mother nearly gets knifed in front of her 3yr old: silence & nothing done. 

Same MPs, so called 'activists', academics on Twitter, opinion writers (that's not journalism) have a melt down because Dawn Butler's car was stopped. Being traumatised for months,living in fear & the affect it has on her child & the many other victims of racial, sexual or domestic violence,abuse or police failings or excessive use of police powers, repeatedly get little to no media or activism support. Maybe its because there isn't a good photo or media opprtuntity to accompany it. Some of the feminist groups & show what can be done, they are dynamic and continue to do fantastic work.

 

The bank is only half a mile away. There's even a Wetherspoon's between to go & celebrate in! Which was obviously frequented on their way to Colston. Well he's off to a museum now where he belongs. Not going to support iconoclasm because if you destroy & erase all easily accessible references, then the past is reduced to a vague "bad things happened" (which is what dictatorships of whatever type do) without understanding the details or if there are ambiguities to make society confront its current failings, limitations or conceit that its moral

Anthony Blythe the Hypnotist

 This post is related to 

https://armourae.blogspot.com/2016/02/le-recherche-hypnosis.html

Youtube has provided a resource for uncovering forgotten, or almost never known bands (short post on that coming "With Apologies to Anne McElvoy"). Books do not have the same resource; unless they are very old and have been added to certain sites.

Books suffer from a short print run, this occurs with  a specialist  subject and hence rarely sell many, and then never reprinted.    The few copies outside of the Bodelian or the British Library being only discovered serendipitously by an academically minded browser or the academically minded actually reading the bibliography of a book that  was  discovered by an academically minded browser, serendipitously.

 Anthony Blythe's Autohypnosis   was such a book. I found it in Bexley Libraries when I had just turned 16. Probably Sidcup library and would be reading it on my way to the naval college. So I can date it to October.  The book included a few details on the work of the famed contemporary hypnotist  Elman and the work of Soviet  psychologists.   An academic text that was accessible for the lay reader and  provided a thorough foundation in the practice of hypnosis.  The only information I  now have on this book is the notes and photocopies I made from the book.  It, alas, appears to be almost impossible to find. Bexley Libaries have long since disposed of their copy ( upcoming article Libraries Today are not for learning).


Here is some more information from a lost source about Peter Blythe, Anthony's father, more famous book-

More Civilised (Part 1)

 So 2020 has been marked by a largely quiet time in Great Britain & aggrevated confrontations  in the north west of the USA in Washington state and other Democrat run areas.

Something that has caused a  stir in Britain is the unreleased report into the grooming gangs that many, no doubt not all, have been arrested and convicted following years of  outrageous neglect and apathy towards  these crimes of rape and paedophilia; also towards the young girls themselves.

The concern from the government is a public backlash since the contents of the report are more incendiary than initially antipated.  Having known victims of grooming I can predict some of the contents. The Conservative government of Boris fears a public explosion of anger.  Had Jeremy Corbyn formed the government in December 2019, the report  would have been buried even further.

 

If this type of report was released in the 1990s or earlier there would have been a far greater  furour with protests and a rise in vote for rar right parties in the next election.   In the 1950-1970s it would have been accompanied with violence. In the 1930s or earlier, the murdering of innocent people who have a semblance relating to the perpretators would have been  likely; despite capital punishment existing for murder.

Commendable that a more measured approach would come from the public. Providing it is one of refusal to make indiscriminate attacks and not one of apathy.

Next day after writing this, a report was released. It showed, unsurpringly, a large number of white child abusers, I'm not far from one of the three top security prisons which contains some of those vermin who sometimes get scarred or bumped off. But the report covered aboutr 30% of the cases examined, so it's incomplete.

A load of  opinion writers who call themselves left wing (middle class larpers as usual) were crowing about the demographics in the report & blaise to the suffering of the victims and the details relating to victims:  repetition of abuse, concentration of numbers etc.  Ignoring victims is not proof of liberalism or tolerance.

VIN AND SORI  🇮🇪 Primodial-The Coffin Ships Reaction!! Long live 🇮🇪!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYoVk3UxIeE


Thanks for doing this great band, Maybe do another Irish band my cousin's band 'Dead Can Dance' perhaps Ulysses, or Song of the Seraphim.

The song is about the Irish Potato Famine. Britain is partly to blame for letting people die, but harvests across Europe from 1848 failed due to the climate.. The British gov of Lord John Russell greatly increased the deaths by ignoring the Irish proletariat. Britain has avoided famine,last one 1829 then no more due to rail transport moving food quickly an still fresh across the country.

 My great great grandfather, Tim Healey , the future Governor General of the Free State and leader of the Irish Nationalists & his brother leader of the All Ireland League were born into the famine, and a few arrived in Liverpool aged 12 with the Irish emigration escaping poverty and hunger. Instead they arrived into the overcrowded working class Liverpool where children worked in the cotton mills. Tim Healey's friend William Davit, another child emigre, had his arm ripped off by a loom in Liverpool when he was child.

The looms were large steel teethed combs which were used to untangle cotton. Children and women being smaller had to run across the room to pick up the piles of cotton that had accumulated on the floor. Sometimes decapitation or death occurred. The conditions in the cities of England convinced Tim Healey and others to be more radical and revolutionary because if the ruling classes were prepared to ignore the poor and dying on their streets they would do little for those in Ireland.

 It was that experience that emphasised Karl Marx's views. He was already a revolutionary having been part of the Dresden Uprising, and in London, in the next street from my university where I was studying chemistry he saw people in the gutter.

 You mention 1349. To me this is one of the most important dates in history. When princes and bishops were dying from the Black Death it caused many to reject the authority of Church and State, and seek free thinking, and a more equal society. Prior attempts had failed. This was the beginning of Enlightenment thinking that solidified 400 years later and the Renaissance greatly accelerated.

The whole album is excellent & a landmark in music. Noel Gallagher said "I would have exchanged all my albums to make this album, and I'm an arrogant bastard" The Sex Pistols appeared on the Bill Grundy show with their entourage including Suzi Sioux of the future Siouxsie and the Banshees, part of the Bromley Scene which was part of my life. Well during the programme Bill goaded them to swear more, and a retired colonel in Kent, sort of your Texas without the religious bible thumping, kicked his TV in anger- he was real PUNK. 1977 was the year of the Silver Jubilee there were many strikes & industrial unrest, by 1979 there were food shortages in the supermarkets, lots of empty shelves but that didnt last long, piles of rubbish in many streets with rats as part sof the refuse were on strike and bodies piling up in morgues. It was the 'Winter of Discontent.' Margaret Thatcher won the election on the back of this

Princess Diana committed adultery before Prince Charles. The marriage had problems from the outset. They went on honeymoon to Balmoral, the Queen';s Scottish home, with ther family present so that was not romantic at all. Prince Charles is 14 years older and didn't have much in common with the 19 year old Diana. There were a number of affairs, then Charles committed adultery by getting back together with the only woman he wanted to marry. He wanted to marry Camilla back in 1973 but he was serving in the navy & she married a Catholic. That marriage ended in a divorce immediately before Charles & Camilla announced their engagement, I believe she had converted to RC so had to renounce that in order to get married as Catholics are banned from the Line of Succession.

Britain has a Constitutional Monarchy meaning the monarch's power is very limited. The Prime Minister has to report to the monarch every week, Tuesday normally, The Queen signs every Act of Parliament but the monarch does not refuse to give Royal Ascent; however it has come out that the monarch can send back an Act requesting it be reviewed before signing.
The last monarch to try to refuse to sign an Act of Parliament which would make it law was William  IV, who tried to refuse signing the abolition of slavery in the Empire in 1834, slavery had been abolished decades earlier in Britain, starting in 1794 when the Abolition Act was initially defeated in Parliament. The Prime Minister, First Lord of the Treasury, as they were called prior to the 20th century, replied to the king, "the last monarch who did that was beheaded."



Plasmatics - Butcher Baby Reaction!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQEryntqHis

Sori:"It was so friggin repetitive" THAT IS PUNK! It is anti- Prog Rock with its 15 minute songs with thousands of notes & $4000 a day studio.
Insanity Defence has a very strict criteria, people who are fully sane commit GBH & murder, there does not have to be any mental illness prior to violence, or sub clinical conditions: minor psychiatric condition which is less than requiring clinical treatment and the subject is able to exercise full self control to resist the intent to commit GBH or homicide.
I know of cases where people have gone to prison where they should have been committed to a psychiatric hospital as they committed homicide during a schizophrenic episode.
However when I was still a newspaper editor there was a woman who randomly knifed 2 men to death & attacked a couple more at random in one day. She escaped to Wales with the help of a couple of men before she was captured. Photos she took of herself included licking a knife! She is sane & was during the attacks. She did it because she enjoyed it.

The Yorkshire Ripper, a murderer who got the sobriequet due to the mystery of his identity, a recall of Jack the Ripper, entered an Insanity Plea claiming voices in his head made him kill 13 women & attack 7 more. He was found to have some schizophrenia but it was sub clinical so the plea was dismissed by the jury. However the criminal psychiatric assessment consists of 2 independent psychiatrists, one found Peter Sutcliffe to be criminally insane, the other stated he was sane during the murders. He was convicted as sane as his actions were not involuntary. The background to Sutcliffe is that he showed pathological and criminal behavior before being a teenager. He came from a stable and happy home, so that was not a factor.
At 14 he suffered a severe brain injury in an accident. So a teenager during a period of sexual development with a history of pathological behaviour suffered a brain injury which impacted his moral and sexual development. Had psychiatric clinical and social treatment been provided by the State immediately it would have at least improved the possibility of not descending into violence

SABATON -  BISMARCK

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nBRUujqLlQ



I assure you the survivors from the Bismarck were not tortured. Mistreatment of prisoners occurred on the Eastern Front & in Russia, especially by Einsatzgruppen & Bosnian fascists in Yugoslavia. At the Battle of the Bulge, the Ardennes Offensive, the young Nazi fanatics who broke through the America lines also committed torture & murder. There were SS officers who had murdered thousands of Jews and were executed for shooting a downed RAF pilot; it was their personal decision not military policy. There were violations of the Geneva Convention for captured soldiers on the Western Front but only a small number. Japanese soldiers committed many atrocities, murdering injured soldiers in hospital beds & the nurses and doctors, Rape of Nanjing which Japan still refuses to apologise for. Japan often refused to recognise the Geneva and Haig Conventions. Japanese military concept of honour was based upon the warrior notion of loyalty to the Emperor & the ultra nationalism of a Japanese philosopher and not respect for the enemy. Whereas even in Nazi Germany there was still a sense of honouring your enemy, this was a value from the Imperial Germany days that even extended to the SS at times, but Hilter,Himmler & other Nazis did try to erase that and wanted merciless killing. That did happen on the Eastern Front , and towards Slav and Eastern Jews that they considered Untermenschen


The end of the video with British sailors helping up German is wholly accurate.The film 'Sink the Bismarck' has a number of errors. It portrays Grand Admiral Lutjens as pro Nazi, the officer lying on the floor of the bridge,injured. In fact he was vehemently anti Nazi. He was one of only 3 fleet officers (admirals) who signed an open letter condemning Kristallnacht , refused to give the Nazi salute or fly the Swastika.  Hitler had been trying to clear the High Command of anti-Nazis since 1933. The Lutjens had Jewish in laws via his wife Margarete Backenköhle. Jewish persecution was already at its full extent, but German people of mixed Jewish-non Jewish families had an exemption if they served in the military, specialist occupations or WWI veterans- but Himmler was against this & wanted them all deported to the death camps . In 1944 Himmler managed to get his way & ordered all the remaining Jewish men, most of course were already murdered, to report to the post office prior to deportation. The women blocked the roads to the central Berlin post office to prevent this & their is a monument to their heroism. The order was rescinded in the public outcry. You are right about camaraderie, at the First Gulf War there were officers from my former naval college serving I was following the news updates more avidly/concern than I already do because of that, happened spontaneously not planned, and Dad was getting updates about his regiment. There was no joy about Iraqi troops being killed, they were fellow combatants sent into battle because of politicians making a mess of things again



Additional thought.Martin Niemöller was Germany's most successful U-boat captain in World War I. He then became a pacifist & a Lutheran pastor. He quickly rejected the Nazi government as did many German Conservatives for their abuse of legal process & human rights . & for having elements of the Far Left & revolution although that had decreased a lot since 1924. He wrote the "First The Came..." poem . Due to his Lutheran beliefs he was anti-semitic in the 30s in as much he believed that Jews would be punished for the Crucifixion. In January 1946 he gave an anti-Nazi speech at Berlin University he had to escape when the students charged the stage with the intention of killing him for being anti-Nazi; this is after the liberation of the death camps. There were a number of post war Nazi political groups. The Socialist Reich Party was outlawed in 1952 only after it got 80,000 votes in Saxony & threateningly close to have MPs elected




 RAMMSTEIN RADIO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jcMhgfmvlE

One of the few sources of independent news that East Germans and in other authoritarian regimes were able to access, banned by their governments was the BBC World Service. Rock music was banned is most Communist countries as it was classified as Western, degenerate and capitalist. Meanwhile is West Germany some of the most experimental music was being made: Stockhausen & Kraut Rock
YOu're referring to the Devil's Interval aka Devil's Tritone. TOny IOmmi used it a lot inearly SAbbath. NIB & the notes of the Black SAbbath song, the latter is a broken chord of the tritone

Cannibal Corpse- Scourge of Iron
Stephen Armourae 15 hours ago


Al Qaeda used to claim any a & all bombings as a means of producing a mirage of their size & to put the blame on the West for the bombing, The difference with the Sri Lanka bombing is that there is a video of the bombers declaring allegiance to ISIL .

  In most Eastern churches Hell is simply the absence of God due to the pride or sinfulness of the deceased refusing to see Salvation. Buddhism has a very brutal Hell. Coming from a primarily Quaker based background I have a real problem of the theory of souls going to Hell. As that means that a divine spark which is incorruptible, is being sentenced for the sins of the body and mind which are largely/completely unaware of the spirit. 

The Christian Hell emerged around 2nd century, as I recall without checking, as the Apocalypse of Peter is 2nd or 3rd century, influenced by the Jewish Gehenna, the valley where waste was burnt and so seen as a place of death. The Christian Patriarchs developed it as punishment to deter sin, which Nietzsche gave one of his few praises for Christianity: a world without the threat of Hell would have already descended into evil anarchy and power he believed. The fear of Hell actually decreased in the Middle Ages, it was Protestantism that reinvigorated the fear and threat of damnation. 



IRON MAIDEN  - PASCHENDALE


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUAQeqmj75Q



When I was a child I used to talk to an officer who was in the Battle of the Somme, he had lost a leg in the battle & he kept his false leg next to the wall in his study. He was about 90 by then.He included me in his will as he enjoyed our chats. What he didn't tell me, that I found out later what he, my relatives in both wars, was that at Paschendale, Somme & the World War I trenches they could hear rats gnawing on the dead at night. Vin, you say those who haven't fought aren't pacifists.That's true my father was sniper & some kind of special training that he didn't talk about except a couple of brief references.He loved being in the army when overseas in other countries, but after being a sniper he hated guns & fireworks.Many former soldiers hate fireworks as they sound like gunfire at a distance.Other relatives who were in heavy battles like dad often hated politicians when they choose to rush into war & not see the dead civilians & children or their comrades dying. You also say dying soldiers often wanting to be back with their mum. Dad saw fellow soldiers, who's last words were for their mother & wishing they were with them, or due to loss of blood they thought they were with their mothers.

Terrible battle amoung many.Around 800,000 dead or injured. It was during a crisis period of the war, where it looked Germany may have invaded Britain from Belgium & Holland as  a million German troops were freed from the Eastern Front. You can see some of the prayers I did for a service on Armistice Day 2018 & there is a video coming soon- http://armourae.blogspot.com/


When the Germans entered Belgium at the beginning of the war they were

accused of crucifying alive  priests & civilians. In the political

correctness of the 1990's this was dismissed by people who were not

researchers. I t has since been confirmed again that the Germans did do

crucifixions, and this was at the very beginning  months before trench

warfare began.





QUEEN THE SHOW MUST GO ON

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwXYM_ZblQ0



Freddie was still alive when this song was released on the Innuendo album. Queen went to Switzerland to record the next album knowing that Freddie would be too ill to complete it so they recorded his vocals first on days when he could get to the studio.  If you've seen the Bohemian Rhapsody movie it contains a number of inaccuracies for artistic license. At Live Aid Freddie did not have the virus. Their last gig at Knebworth he was still getting negative test results but knew his time was limited as his group of friends at the Heaven nightclub were all contracting the illness, including the actor who played the Jester in BBC's Rentaghost. There is another Queen album: Queen with Paul Rodgers who is a great singer from the 70s. Made about +10years ago. Then he went back to his solo career and they did a reality programme to find his replacement in Adam Lambert, a decent enough singer but not a patch on Mercury or Rodgers but the band won't say that


METALLICA-  OF WOLF AND MAN

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gre0o6VCDY4

Vin has woken up! EyeHateGod he was comatosed. Metallica was listening to Sepultura's first song: Necromancer by the sounds of it, although that is a far better song with more melodies. Yeah GG Allin: Kill the Police. There have been a few famous cases of children raised by wolves, they behaved like wolves. One of the recent cases, when he was captured and brought back to 'civilisation' he went back to his pack with anthropologists, they wolves responded when he howled for them but wouldn't come to him as he smelt different, he had the smell of humans not of the wolf pack Apropos plants defending themselves, Alex will know this from Stryer's Biochemistry: tobacco plants contain nicotine to deter insects from eating them. The potato and tomato plants have similar compounds in their leaves to stop animals eating them. Doesn't stop the cabbage white butterfly which has evolved to eat them. Ignore those AMERICAN websites saying "Hey eat RAW vegetables" specifically potato, kale, cabbage, broccoli. The cruciferous vegetables contain toxins which slow your metabolism. The toxins are destroyed by mild cooking. Its the plant defending itself

Biography of the writer Hilda Lewis and  academic Professor Michael Lewis


This is the short biography I wrote on the novelist Hilda Lewis and her husband. You can also read it on IMDB. I am an admirer of Hilda's writing having heard of a few of her books and my attention being drawn to a Sphere published book, the company had colourful covers in the 70s. Her husband was Vice Principal  at one of my  colleges, Goldsmiths from 1940-1947.

Historical novelist Hilda Lewis was born in London in 1896. She married Professor Michael Lewis in 1921 who became thew Director of the Institute of Education in the University of Nottingham. Her first book, a novel of London's East End where her grandfather was a clergyman. Her first famous book was The Ship that Flew in 1939.
Hilda Lewis had an interest in social issues explored in the novel Strange Story which influence post-war opinion on capital punishment.
Via her husband she developed an interest in the language of children with his educational research on deaf children, this resulted in her most famous book 'The Day Is Ours' which was filmed as Mandy also known as Crash of Silence (1952). In later years she wrote historical novel s including one of her final novels I Am Mary Tudor and The Witch and the Priest.
Her novel about Richard II and his bride Isabella, The Gentle Falcon, was adapted for television in 1954.
From her marriage in 1921 she remained in Nottingham for the rest of her life, the city inspired one of her early novels, Penny Lace, set in the lace making industry.
After a major operation there were complications and she died as consequence in January 1974.

Hilda Lewis's husband Professor Michael Lewis was a scholar of children's language and communication in deaf children. His work inspired Hilda Lewis' novel 'The Day Is Ours' which became the feature film Mandy. He studied at University College London, then an academic at the University of Nottingham from 1921-1940, when he became vice principal of Goldsmiths College. In 1947 he returned to Nottingham University as a department director until his retirement in 1963.

BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST ARTHUR FRANKENBERG-


I wrote this short bio on the designer Arthur Frankenberg for Wikipedia. He was very famous in the 20s and early 30s and then his name disappeared into obscurity. One of the little Napoleon's on Wikipedia who is on a power trip moved it to drafts wanting more citations, I had provided 16 separate references,  & whether 'he was notable.' Thus there can be endless articles about a vacuous 'celebrities' ie once appeared on a reality show, remember when celebrities  were Lauren Bacall, Einstein, Neil Armstrong, Ghandi or JFK?

Obscurity is invetable for  many in the Arts or Sciences. Fame rests largely on media and PR exposure which is largely limited to popular & lucrative popular entertainment. Wikipedia does cover obscurity, I have written articles on very obscure people but this time someone has got on their high horse & I can't be  bothered, here is  the article  that you cannot read on the online encyclopedia about a major designer:

Arthur Frankenberg who used the name Arthur von Frankenberg was an American twentieth century designer and sculptor of Art Nouveau and Art Deco figures. He is best remembered for his Art Deco sculptors of nude women, often supporting objects such as globes, and simliar figures designed as lamps.
He incorporated his own company Frankart Inc in the early 1920s located at the Manhatten address 1170 Broadway at 28th Street and later at 225 Fifth Avenue. The company boomed and produced an array of items: aquariums, ashtrays, bookends, centerpieces, clocks, incense burners, inkwells, lamps, smoker stands and smoker sets, vases, and wall plaques. However a disagreement between Frankenberg and the company management in 1930 resulted in legal action and the company declined until it ceased in 1935.

Quoizel Metal Art Company

Following his ousting from the company he founded, Frankenberg started the Quoizel Metal Art Compan in l930. The company folded in 1931

SYNCHRONICITY OR SIMPLY COINCIDENCE



Most of the productions: audio, stage, film,serial have the initials AJF  attached in the credits.h
Its connected to someone dearest to me.  Back in 2006 I was in Bexleyheath in Kent going through art works. I found the drawing below which looks just like her.
Remarkably the date of completion of the portrait was the same week she was born.
The picture is hanging in the room where I am typing and working right now.

9 Years and everything points to murder


This came up when looking for sheet music via Google. The discussions I had with various police and other professionals confirm  the following:


Brother of the murdered Bernadette Bazzoni.

https://twitter.com/#!/editorArmourae


Unless you believe the husband's story that a skull can be shattered in 3 places simply by falling down wooden household stairs; solid human skull. Then he gives contradictory stories of his location: in one he's in bed asleep then another he's in another room.

Then while my sister fought for her life having had life saving neurosurgery he gripped by fear an d panic tries to ban all of her relative from seeing her in coma- that's dozens of us and told further lies that I've proved to the police are lies.

When she died he despearately tried to hide the funeral from all her relatives. Off the record every trauma doctor, police etc etc say his claims are completely false and that the death is non natural.

As a journalist, it has been repeatedly confirmed to me that there is a problem in the justice system. The police blame the Crown Prosecution Service

What next to study?

The full set post school have been:  BTEC certificate: telecommunications and electronics (also did satellite tech & learned about  navigation and  driving boats). A levels: chemistry,physics, biology,literature, psychology,art. Degrees covering chemistry, physics, electronics (with various other aspects), pharmaceuticals. Maths was also part of these science degrees.
On the Arts: acting.,perfromance, design certificates plus I attended the research and PhD lectures in the classical music dept. At Ravensbourne, broadcast engineering and film. At a recording studio  video production  and a certificate in sound engineering and music production.
Electrical Installation level III, an environmental science short course, certificate in classical composition. Certificates in forensic science, forensics psychology, astronomy and the Holocaust and I  am looking forward to doing more. And did a directing course at a major London theater
-And that Cambridge University diploma in theology I studied for and then it was abolished just before I was going to take it.
 The Ship That Ran Aground

When I was 15 I had finished the last of my O levels, did the first ones when I was 13, and was ready to join the naval college at Greenhithe, the college was mostly land based since 1976 and stood next to the impressive  VVictorian Gothic house of Ingress Abbey  The naval connections had been toned a lot since early 70s.
The college's origins were a cadet ship HMS Swale, I believe was the ship, that fought at the Battle of the Nile.  The Honour Role had names from that battle, and Swale was one of the two ship names that was continued when I was there.
 There is a memorial mosaic by the river Thames. An impressive image of a ship of the sail but the plaque is inaccurate. It describes only  Training Ship Worcester; she was put down in the first half of the nineteenth century when a young Victoria had ascended to the throne. There is no mention of the earlier ship which our college had a lineage to, enshrined in the Honour Role.

Cato sacrificium tyrannide contra omnes

 ILL AGAIN - this was written sometime I think February 2019 & now published
 This latest bout of physical and psychological 'crashing' resulting from the effects of my sister being murdered and the continuous lies and apathy of the MET Police, which are easily proven since through their blatant stupidity they cannot  be bothered to read a letter properly and dropped themselves right in it. Also, add the MET  'losing' her mother's murder case file years ago, despite finding her dead and the reasons they gave why the police who found her with my sister were certain it was homicide and thus a murder investigation.

  A new symptom has emerged as the dentist confirmed that they had lost enamel from 3 teeth over the last couple of months; been twice, back then and today, her explanation is that teeth grinding has suddenly started occurring - in my sleep.
This injury 'reminded' me of the faint scars on my left arm caused by a large sharp knife.
"NOT self harming," I have explained to the psychiatric health teams that the doctor has referred me to a number of times, not by asking btw. "Yes I inflicted it upon myself, but your notes are wrong it was not self harm."
And so once again I have to go through the explanation, be quicker to refer any future counselors to this page:

Back when I was 14, the question, "Isn't it odd that so many of mum's dad's side of the family die of cancer?" was answered. An American geneticist had identified a rare form of cancer that was hereditary, this is not a tendency, it's a genetic code that once it is invariably activated releases a lethal cancer. Et viola we one of the very few families to be identified as a carrier; caused a stir in the genetics community, my mother's cancerous thyroid is on display in a prominent medical museum.

9 years later I had again had the 'inconclusive' blood test that I had  every few months at a London hospital. My indestructible mother  had already defeated the cancer twice by this time. Two inconclusive in a row or a positive and it would be the permanent loss of my voice, scarred throat and life long dependency on life saving medication if I was lucky plus more ops, more likely it would be only delaying the inevitable.

Having seen what had happened to my grandfather and other relatives I had long since resolved that once the pain had begun, which meant there was no hope, I was going to end it when I had enough, and not go through the Hell they had suffered.

The question was what would be the preferred method?
The test for various solutions was catalysed  as I became unintentionally reckless. The cause of this had been that they had met the woman who my film and theatre production company is named after AJF, after a few years of no contact. What should have been so simple, just explain to her: my decision was to spare her the horror my decline from cancer as the doctor's had had an inconclusive test when we knew each other, and we could not have children as it would be unfair to inflict on her and our children the trauma of what the future would be.
However it proved impossible to look into her eyes and tell her this. That emotion I have for her choked the words in my throat and I didn't know it was possible to feel that deeply which has never diminished in the slightest, quite the opposite. So a few attempts to explain myself only produced ill feeling until a stormy exchange where it was finally revealed.

Having then plunged further into an emotional trauma, only equaled and surpassed by Bernadette's murder over these years, I unintentionally got too reckless in how would I top myself if the cancer was eating away at me.
A certain garden plant brought my far closer to death than I had intended.The toxin metabolised after 3 hours and my heart regained its rhythm- so that was one effective way.

But I had always fancied Cato the Younger's method. The enemy of Julius Caesar and implacable defender of the Republic to the death, had taken his own life when Caesar was closing in on him after the Battle of Thapsus in the Great Roman Civil War, Cato had driven a sword into himself;
although like Tojo he made a bit of a mess of it.
Caesar's response on hearing of Cato's death was,
ὮΚάτων, φθονῶ σοι τοῦ θανάτου: καὶ γὰρ ἐμοὶ σὺ τῆς σαυτοῦ σωτηρίας ἐφθόνησας.’

Goldsmiths Art Dept. Armourae has worked on various art and theatre projects with graduates. Alumni of Goldsmiths include John Cale, Bridget Riley, Lucian Freud, Damian Hurst; whose eggs were stolen by foxes during an art project

 
I was told about  Damian Hirst & the eggs by the security guards  that I knew for years. He put them on the front lawn of Goldsmiths.  The art dept is at the forefront of conceptual art  however many students I knew  were not happy with the course as they didn't learn  technical skills

This is how I like to see myself, my face hidden. One of my favourite roles playing the knight that killed Archbishop Beckett and took the top of his head off


Stephen Michael Armourae threatens the people of England to remain inservitude to the French rulers having murdered Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas a' Beckett. Apologies for poor rendering from video


More from MURDER IN A CATHEDRAL, the last lines where the character I play justifies the killing of Beckett.  The director Reverend Ian trained as an actor in a style that is very expressive  but hardly taught in Britain.  Very lucky to have learned some things from Ian
