Audi Alteram Partem

Dear LSH,

If you have made it this far, then you are almost home and dry. Well done. First, I am sorry (sort of) that your rail ticket was booked for a train departing so early in the day. This was for a good reason, which I shall explain later.

It was crucial that, while aboard the train, you were positively identified beyond any doubt. No risks could be taken. This is why you were allocated a specific seat. You might counter that the person occupying your seat could have been someone else — that is, a random ‘other’ passenger taking a chance that the ‘owner’ of the seat had either not boarded or was seated elsewhere. That would be quite logical, but it was a puzzle that I had already addressed.

To eliminate the possibility of this scenario occurring, I made sure that someone else would be occupying your seat when (or if) you arrived at it. Think: when discovering that the seat was already taken, only you would ask the occupant to vacate it. Another random passenger would not request this, as he/she would not be able to produce the appropriate ticket and, in any case, would logically assume that the seat was already occupied by the designated person.

In case you have not realized, I myself was the original occupant. You identified yourself the moment you asked me to move. I even looked you in the eyes when I apologized for the ‘mistake’, hoping that you would make a subconscious note of my face — the same one top right on this web page. I even thought to wear a black T-shirt.

I was not worried that the instructions sent to you might end up in the wrong hands. No sensible person would embark on a long and random cross-country rail journey with a stolen one-way ticket and no means of getting back. Once I had identified you correctly, I could publish this message with confidence. (I now know what you look like, which is not what I had expected. No offence intended.)

You alighted at the agreed station. I know this because I alighted there, too. I had driven there the previous day, left my car in the station car park and taken the train back to where I had set out. In other words, my journey on your train was in fact the return leg for me. Once I knew that all was well, I had simply to get in my car and drive all the way back.

Outside the station, you boarded the correct bus. When I wrote that your destination contained a girl’s name, I had to check that it was the only one on the network map, which it was. Once you had found it on one of the maps displayed at the bus stops, you would then be confident that you were waiting at the correct shelter and boarding the correct bus, which I witnessed and photographed. This picture was sent on via email.

Assuming that no one else would have made it to that point, the instructions to the terrace were made unambiguous. It was my idea to use the bayberry bush as a marker. Of course, there would be no berries this time of year, but I knew that you would be able to identify it by its leaves, so long as you arrived before dark. This was the reason for your early departure. (By the way, this distinctive shrub is not commonly found in the UK. It is native to North America but grows well over here as the climate is comparably temperate.)

The box was left in the only obvious place. I chose a polycarbonate container because it is waterproof, strong and shatter-resistant, made from the same material used for safety glasses and riot shields. I presume that you now have it safely in your possession.

OK, the combination is 7-2-1-1-3-2-0. The small plastic sachet contains silicone lubricant. Spread it on the number barrels, after cleaning them, in case any of them are stiff and difficult to rotate. (This was a precaution. I have no idea how long the box has been lying there.) Inside it, you will — I hope — find a house key attached to a metal tag, on one side of which is engraved a nearby address (Figure 227.1), with my mobile number on the other. Get yourself a good night’s sleep and send me an SMS text message tomorrow morning (Monday, 27th).

Remember: I am not an ally, so you must not consider me as such. Nor am I an adversary — just, if you like, a benevolent arbiter, there to uphold the rules. Also, keep in mind that there are two sides to every argument. Be careful. If you are not aware of one side, then how do you know that you would not support it if you were? Audi alteram partem!

So, there you are. Hidden in plain sight on the internet. Who said it could not be done?

Mistakes Were NOT Made

The following poem (Figure 226.1) was written by Margaret Anna Alice. She wrote it after a conversation with one of the most principled scientists of our time, Dr Mike Yeadon. Both Margaret and Mike noticed the increasing use of terms such as ‘bungled’ and ‘blunder’ to describe the crimes against humanity perpetrated under the cloak of ‘COVID’. Even well-meaning people who share similar values and goals sometimes fall into this trap being set by those preparing their parachute jump from culpability.

This Anthem for Justice is Margaret’s attempt to chronicle the calculated intentionality underlying the ‘COVID’ tyranny. Please spread the clear message that #MistakesWereNOTMade. Please share this poem and keep it handy for the next time anybody uses verbiage to gloss over the atrocities committed. Let us make 2023 the Year of Accountability so none dare repeat such acts in the future.


Figure 226.1: The poem is read by Dr Tess Lawrie, a medical doctor and research consultant based in the UK. She is the CEO of Evidence-Based Medicine Consultancy (E-BMC Ltd.) and EbMC Squared, a founding member of the BiRD group, and she sits on the steering committee of the World Health Council.

Be in no doubt: as the bodies of the ‘vaccinated’ continue to pile up (Figure 226.2), the perpetrators are desperate to avoid the gallows.

We must allow them no escape from Nuremberg 2.o.

To Build Jerusalem

Dundee, Scotland. May 1986.

One of the wonders of living so far north (latitude 56.5) was the length of midsummer days: sunrise before 5 a.m.; sunset after 10 p.m. There was no ‘night’ as such, just a reluctant daylight abeyance.

I remember a particular Saturday at 6 a.m. It was broad daylight when I boarded one of the first ‘Ailsas’ (Figure 225.1) to emerge from the old Seagate station. The coastal town of St Andrews lies just ten miles (16 km) from Dundee, across the Rivers Tay and Eden, and the half-hour journey was cheap with a student travel pass. I was travelling alone, carrying only a Sony Walkman, and wearing just a white T-shirt, athletics shorts and a pair of soft trainers.


Figure 225.1: An ‘Ailsa’, by the way, was a blue double-decker bus, manufactured in Scotland from 1974-85. Here are two, making their way along the Seagate in Dundee in the mid-80s.

After disembarking at the City Road terminus in St Andrews, I was content to discover that the streets were largely deserted. From there, it was just a few minutes on foot down to the Bruce Embankment, where the entire splendour of West Sands Beach burst into view.

Both beaches, West Sands and East Sands, face east. It would seem more logical to name them North and South, with the old town nestled between them. West Sands, 1.7 miles (2.7 km) long, forms the entire eastern border of a peninsula which protrudes from the land in the shape of a shark’s dorsal fin. The rest of the peninsula is packed with world-famous links golf courses.

I set off walking north, along West Sands Road, which runs parallel and close to the shore. At the tip of the ‘fin’, I turned and gazed upon the long beach, with the town still just about visible in the morning haze. The tide was almost in, as I knew it would be, having checked the timetable the previous week. When I arrived at the water’s edge, I took off my shoes, put in my earplugs, pressed ‘Play’ on the Walkman, stepped into the very cold water and began to run back towards town, as the waves lapped against my startled feet.

This majestic beach had drawn me to it for two reasons. First, I was training for the Race Against Time (look it up) the following weekend, aiming to complete the 10 km course in 40 minutes. Second, West Sands had been made famous by the film Chariots of Fire, which had deservedly won the Best Film ‘Oscar’ four years previously. In its iconic opening scene, a group of young athletes from the 1920s are seen running barefoot through the waves to the sound of the stirring music of Vangelis (1943-2022) (Figure 225.2). As I was living just a few miles away from the exact location, it was too great an opportunity to neglect.

The town’s skyline was further away than it seemed initially. Running on wet sand is hard work. There was only the occasional dog-walker on the beach, either aware of the cinematic significance of my morning run or simply thinking that I was nuts by getting wet, cold and sand-splashed so early in the day. The nearer to the town I became, the more impressive it all appeared (Figure 225.3).

With the sound of Vangelis in my ears, I thought about the film’s title and its origin, the poem Jerusalem by William Blake (1757-1827). Its first two stanzas consist of questions, as follows:

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon Englands mountains green:
And was the holy Lamb of God,
On Englands pleasant pastures seen!

And did the Countenance Divine,
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here,
Among these dark Satanic Mills?

The ‘holy Lamb of God’ is, of course, Jesus Christ. The ‘Countenance Divine’ is the face of God.

Historical and theological scholars have long suggested that Christ did come to England — Glastonbury, to be precise — with Joseph of Arimathea, but it is speculative at best. The ‘why’ and ‘how’ would seem puzzling to say the least. Perhaps a more intriguing question is: to what was Blake referring when he wrote of ‘these dark Satanic Mills’? This phrase is widely believed to be a scathing reference to the early decades of the Industrial Revolution, which Blake believed enslaved men by the million. An alternative theory, however, is that Blake, who was hostile to organized religion, was actually describing churches. Mills and mines placed men in physical chains from Monday to Saturday, only for churches to bridle them with psychological constructs on their day of rest. Could it be that Blake’s metaphor was a reference to both — even equating one with the other? Was Jerusalem ever ‘builded here’? Blake seemed to think not (Figure 225.4). He considered Georgian England, at least, to be far from ideal, as well he might have.

The final two stanzas contain neither questions nor any sense of wonder. Instead, they constitute a rousing call to arms, to confront the blight which he identified in his poem.

Bring me my Bow of burning gold:
Bring me my arrows of desire:
Bring me my Spear: O clouds unfold!
Bring me my Chariot of fire!

I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand:
Till we have built Jerusalem,
In Englands green & pleasant Land.

The anaphoric third stanza begins this emphatic statement of intent. Blake implies that no worthwhile human achievement or attainment could ever happen by itself, or by gentle passivity, or by lazy dependence on ‘authority’. It inevitably requires deliberate thought and action, whereby each individual looks, first and foremost, to himself.

‘Jerusalem’ is a metaphor for ‘heaven’, ‘paradise’ or perhaps simply any life truly worth living.

London, England. March 2023.

Blake’s 1808 masterpiece retains its relevance in the here and now. If this rebellious Romantic poet were alive today, I dread to imagine what he would have made of the past few years. As I have documented in these articles ad nauseam, government officials, in league with 21st-century robber barons and corporate media, orchestrated the most profound lies, systematically removed the most basic human liberties, convinced billions of people to submit to slow-acting lethal injections, while at the same time made untold fortunes for themselves. No other crimes against humanity have ever come close.

Even though the ‘COVID’ scam has finally fallen apart, the evil globalists have not given up. Nor will they give up, for they have everything to lose. It is now proven beyond the slightest doubt that whatever ‘COVID’ was, it was never any worse than seasonal flu. Meanwhile, country after country documents record excess mortality which correlates extraordinarily strongly with the uptake of ‘vaccines’. There is no other plausible explanation. Millions, if not billions, of human sheep, too docile and trusting for their own good, must now be living in unalleviable fear, albeit too weak, too proud or too arrogant to acknowledge their erstwhile gullibility.

The globalists have no alternative strategy now but to scorch the earth. The world food supply is being systematically severed; the banking system dominoes are beginning to tumble into one another; and war looms on the eastern horizon. The UK’s puppet prime minister, the diminutive Rishi Sunak, does not hesitate to goad nuclear-armed-to-the-teeth Russia, as he believes that it marks him out as a potent statesman, rather than the insincere wimp that he so clearly is. He even prides himself on prioritizing a corrupt (non-NATO) entity, Ukraine, above the desperate needs of the British people whom he pretends to serve. It is both fortunate that his premiership is doomed to fail before the end of next year and equally unfortunate that his probable successor, ‘Sir’ Keir Starmer, will betray the nation’s interests and independence still further.

What is the remedy? Well, as Blake told us, given that ‘authority’ is forever corrupt, justice and reform must spread from the bottom up, as it were, from the grassroots. Top-down solutions are designed to suit only their perpetrators. Our most powerful ‘bow of burning gold’ is the act of non-compliance. If we are to avoid being imprisoned forever inside a worldwide digital gulag, then we can begin by: using cash and bitcoin instead of cards and CBDCs; rejecting corporate food suppliers in favour of locally-based alternatives; voting out anti-British warmongers from public office; depriving businesses that support digital IDs, ‘vaccine’ passports and the like; and refusing point blank to do anything so insane as to be injected with toxic genetic drugs whose contents are kept strictly secret by a cabal of criminals.

We the People have the power to build Jerusalem in England’s green and pleasant land and beyond (Figure 225.5). We cannot, and must not, beseech ‘authority’ to build it for us, for their ilk care only for power.

One day, at whatever age, I would love to take another bus ride to the West Sands at St Andrews, take off my shoes and run through the waves again, knowing that the infernal globalists were foiled and destroyed.

Non-compliance is the answer. Thus, Jerusalem can be builded here.
