[python] MI5 Persecution: Neil Fox (Nov/1998) (6470)
Foxy's Showtime on Capital FM 25/11/98 7.35pm Certainty level: 100% This one, I can say with absolute certainty, is about me. It was recorded on my Sony Recording Walkman on the evening of Wednesday 25 November 1998. It doesn't mention me by name, so the objective observer might have trouble understanding why I'm so sure it's about me. I'm sure, because the harassment had restarted over the period when this piece was broadcast, and what Capital transmitted would have been in context with events at the time. (Sorry if that explanation is somewhat opaque, but I don't really want to embarrass myself by giving an explanation in detail, and an intelligent reader should be able to work it out for him/her self.) This isn't the first time Capital have "got at" me; they were doing so right at the very beginning in summer 1990, when they said, "if he listens to Capital then he can't be all bad"; and Tarrant made remarks about me in his breakfast show in spring 1994, when he said, "you know this bloke? he says we're trying to kill him. We should be done for attempted manslaughter." Unfortunately I didn't record those previous, much more conclusive instances of harassment by Capital DJs, and Capital Radio tells me they only keep recordings for three months. But lately I've been recording everything, and here is one product of that recording. Neil Fox was introducing some petite Swedish songstress, sounded like Amelia, when he said something about her petite-ness ; "she's a big big girl, actually she's really about tiny, she's this big, would you say what less than." then one of his studio staff shouted, "six inches" then Fox laughed and said, "less than a meter tall, definitely" What I think the "six inches" referred to should be obvious. I think it's sexual abuse directed at me. Also there were a lot of words like "crazy", "mad" etc on this programme, which reinforced my belief that this was on purpose directed at myself. I think Fox may be something of an unwilling participant in this abuse, he doesn't want to be an abuser but the persecutors are using his show and his staff to get at me. This is not the first time this sort of thing has happened from his show; and my guess is that it won't be the last 6470 -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service --->>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<-- Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access ___ Python mailing list Python@py.cz http://www.py.cz/mailman/listinfo/python

Neil Fox's Juke Box on Capital Radio (week ending 15/March/1998) Certainty level: 70% Here is an excerpt from Neil Fox's show on Capital Radio 95.8FM, sometime during the week ending Sunday 15/March/1998 (probably during the weekend, but I don't remember). First I will give the text of the conversation between Neil Fox and telephone caller Martin, then I will state my interpretation. (conversation) (F=Dr Fox, M=Martin the caller) F: coming up on the jukebox, the hotline's 0171-4848-958, just a quick shout here and so who's this going to be then Mr Producer? (staff, shouting) MARTIN! F: Couldn't quite hear you, it's going to be? (staff, normal voice) Martin. F: Thank you. Martin, hello. M: Hello, Foxy. F: How are you Martin. M: Er, knackered. F: Why? M: Didn't get much sleep last night. Party down the road. F: What time did you go to bed? M: Four o'clock this morning. F: Well that sounds quite a reasonable Saturday night if you ask me. M: I was up at eight. F: You were up at eight this morning? M: Yeah. F: That's sick. Why? What on earth made you get out of bed at eight this morning? M: My father. F: Well that's no good. Why is he being sicko, is he being a sadist? M: No, he out there, sort of clearing room. F: Listen, is your dad there? M: No, he's downstairs. F: Oh mate, can you get him? M: No. F: Does he not let you on the phone? The only reason is that I wouldn't mind having a chat with someone who makes anyone get up at eight o'clock on a Sunday morning. I'm sorry, that's ill isn't it, that's out of order. M: It's sick. F: I'm just going to ask around here. What do you think then, eight o'clock Sunday morning? That's out of order isn't it, for any father? (staff) Yeah, definitely. F: Is he like victimising you or something, is there any reason why he wanted you up at eight o'clock? To clean your room? M: Well as I say I got up at eight this morning to clean my room and it looks worse that it did yesterday. F: Well I should have just left it and stayed in there until eleven o'clock if I was you. M: Well I was up, I didn't get out of bed. F: What, you didn't get out of bed at eight o'clock? No, he woke you up at eight o'clock. Did you do any cleaning at all? M: I haven't touched my bedroom. F: Top man. Boy you're going to get your arse kicked later aren't you. Now a song for you, what can we play? M: Guns and Roses, "Sweet Child of Mine". F: And we're going to dedicate this to your father? M: No we're not, we'll dedicate this to my good mate Jamie, who's sitting on the bed now. F: Right, hello Jamie. And anyone else? Any top totty in your life at the moment? M: Unfortunately no. F: The totty factor is quite low at the moment is it? M: It's dead. F: It's dead? What, nothing? M: Nothing. F: What, zero? Well, that's pathetic. No wonder you're down. You stay out til four o'clock and nothing. We'd better have words when we're off the radio I think. We need to give you a team talk. You have a good night tonight. M: And you. F: Take care. (song starts) F: Actually something was going through my mind. I think I'll leave it. I'm not really sure whether this is in any way about me. It probably isn't. Probably it's just my nasty suspicious mind finding links where none exist. However, here is an explanation of why it might, possibly, be about me. Throughout this interview, I was throwing abuse at the radio, and to my mind, Neil Fox was hearing the abuse, and responding interactively. This explains why he sounds so stressed when talking to telephone caller Martin, and the general violence of his words including "Boy you're going to get your arse kicked later aren't you". The piece starts of with the producer shouting the name of the caller, which might be related to my loud vocalisations at the radio. The trouble starts off with Fox saying "That's sick". "Sick" might be taken as a reference to my condition. Then Fox says, "Why is he being sicko, is he being a sadist?", again sick = my illness, "sadist" = attitude of my oppressors towards me. "that's ill isn't it" = further comment on my illness. "Is he like victimising you or something" = again what my enemies are doing to me. Fox sounds quite happy when he gets Martin to say "It's sick"; as you would expect him to, if the comment were directed at me. It is a constant feature of my enemies' harassment of me that they get intermediaries to verbalise the abuse. Immediately after saying "victimising you" Fox gives a little laugh, to show he thinks the victimisation (of me, not Martin) is funny. Fox gets increasingly nasty as the piece progresses. "Boy you're going to get your arse kicked later aren't you" is not really what you would expect him to say if he were just talking to Martin. Fox is on the same side as Martin, so why would he be so verbally aggressive to him? On the other hand, if the piece is about me, then his strong words start to make sense. Fox's jubilation at finding that Martin's "totty factor" is "dead" again doesn't make much sense unless

Capital Radio (11/April/1997) Certainty level: 10% A nice easy one here. The DJ is heard to say (around 8.30pm); "Jacko in town, what a gig it's going to be, that guy is amazing, and psychotic, but amazing on stage, 0171-420-0958, on stage he's a madman but he's wonderful" I was listening to Capital loud and clear, trying to get a reaction.

GLR-David Hepworth (9/May/1997) Certainty level: 100% This time I deliberately listened to Hepworth with the sound turned up on the radio, to try to get a reaction. Sure enough, he and his cronies reacted; David: "we have executive drivetime, and we have Brian in charge of the prize cupboard. Brian it's not a bad prize cupboard this week is it?" Brian: "no David in fact it's an absolute (EMPHASIS) embarrassment (END-EMPHASIS) of prizes this evening" (laughter) David: "what have we got?" Brian: "well in my left hand alone we've got that Gary Clale, I don't know if you remember him obviously still alive and kicking and that's just in my left hand" David: "So it's certainly worth competing. Rock and roll spelling test is your first opportunity to take advantage of this embarrassment of prizes" What I "read into" this item should again be quite obvious. Remember, I sent off a letter of complaint to Hepworth after his spying activity during the previous show. Here the emphasis on "absolute embarrassment" of prizes shows he knows this is a "key" phrase. It might be interesting to try to talk to DJs like Hepworth and ask them what they get out of abusing their listeners. But if you challenge them directly, they show their true colour (yellow) by either not answering the challenge, or by denying that harassment has taken place. 2801 -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service --->>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<-- Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access ___ Python mailing list Python@py.cz http://www.py.cz/mailman/listinfo/python
[python] MI5 Persecution: GLR: David Hepworth (21/Feb/1997) (1578)
GLR-David Hepworth (21/Feb/1997) Certainty level: 80% I was listening to BBC Greater London Radio (GLR) by stealth, ie. on my walkman with headphones, with the sound turned right down, to prevent anyone from hearing what I was listening to. Yet somehow "they" are still able to tell what station I am listening to on the walkman. After half an hour or so listening to GLR, DJ David Hepworth came out with this; "I assume Brian, do we have an embarrassment of prizes in there, we do, don't we, absolute obscene amounts of prizes, there will no doubt be a riot at the back door, and that's A-level coming up after this" The key phrases in what he said are, "EMBARRASSMENT of prizes", and what he himself emphasised verbally, "ABSOLUTE OBSCENE amount of prizes". It is my belief (based on content and tone of voice) that when he spoke these phrases he knew I was listening, and that the phrases refer directly to my situation. The "EMBARRASSMENT" is the embarrassment he and other media people would feel at having their wrongdoing exposed; the "ABSOLUTE OBSCENE" (which he verbally emphasised) described the disgusting sexual abuse which the harassers have been throwing at me. Of course, I can't prove that this is what he meant, although this has happened enough times that it's hard not to recognise it when you see it. I sent David Hepworth a copy of this explanation, with the results listed in a subsequent item (David Hepworth 9/May/1997). 1578 -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service --->>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<-- Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access ___ Python mailing list Python@py.cz http://www.py.cz/mailman/listinfo/python
[python] MI5 Persecution: Life is so hard (355)
Life is so hard Certainty level: 100% This relates to harassment at my workplace in Canada. Yes, "they" had their claws into my employers in North America, it doesn't just happen in England, it happens here as well. During the second half of 1996, at work, I was sitting near a co-worker whom we shall call Mark (we can, because that's his name). This guy occasionally came out with words and phrases that made me think that "they" had got to him and were supplying him with information about my home life (not social life please note, because of course I don't actually have a social life here). During November 1996 I tried to catch him in the act of saying something "meaningful", a difficult exercise because as soon as he saw a tape recorder, he shut up completely, except for times when he knew he would be out of range of the walkman. (Note that the quality of this recording is not very good; I was just using a four-year-old tape walkman with a cheap microphone, quite low-tech). During the evening of 12 November 1996, at home in my apartment (flat to you UK-ers), I said "life is so hard, and then you die". A nihilistic, negative thing to say, but quite distinctive. The following day, 13 November, Mark said loudly, "life is so hard eh, and then you die" followed by loud laughter. In my book the precise repetition of the words makes this incident a 100% certainty. You, the reader, may differ, but then living in a free country allows each of us to have our own opinions, doesn't it? 355 -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service --->>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<-- Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access ___ Python mailing list Python@py.cz http://www.py.cz/mailman/listinfo/python
[python] MI5 Persecution: BBC1 TV News - 18/Dec/2002 (7693)
BBC1 TV News - 18/Dec/2002 Certainty level: 30% This item occurred on Wednesday 18/December/2002, on BBC1 TV News shortly after 6pm. It is one of the "coincidence" category of happenings, where people by supposed coincidence repeat exactly the words I have said or thought very recently. In this case, the BBC's New York correspondent Stephen Evans, live from NYC, says the words "airy fairy language", during a piece on Britain's entry in the competition for a successor to the WTC after 9/11. I had been thinking the words "airy fairy" a day or two previously and may have spoken them in my sleep. I did not speak them awake. The TV practice in 1990-92 had been to repeat on TV/radio (or at work) words which I had either spoken while awake, or words I had thought but not said consciously - since I know that I sometimes say things in my sleep, but cannot later recall saying them, obviously since I was unconscious at the time. The TV news reader or reporter then finds a context in which to drop a particular phrase; this practice has a famous exemplar in the "Phil the Greek" item relating to the Duke of Edinburgh - who had been called Phil the Greek in Private Eye, then a TV reporter managed to structure his report to include the words "fill the Greek community with alarm". It might appear funny, but when such "intentional coincidence" happens a lot, as in 1990-92, and when it supports other methods of obscenity, then the amusement value wanes. The choice of words appears to form a homosexual reference - the way it works is that the Security Service are blokes fantasising continually about another bloke, so to avert the obvious observation of their being gay see here for another instance of unwholesome MI5 fantasising in public), they try to assign the attribute to the victim - they do this sort of thing all the time, with all sorts of attributes. However, in this particular case I give it only a one in three probability, since this incident seems to have been a one-off at that particular time. 7693 -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service --->>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<-- Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access ___ Python mailing list Python@py.cz http://www.py.cz/mailman/listinfo/python
[python] MI5 Persecution: Channel Four TV News - 10/April/2002 (6470)
Channel Four TV News - 10/April/2002 Certainty level: 80% I was watching Jon Snow on Channel Four TV News on Wednesday 10 April, and he again reacted on seeing me watching his programme. At 7.25pm he was reading an item on atrocities during the Balkan war; JS: "It was Europe's worst massacre since the Second World War, and Dutch army officers [cough] and the United Nations should share the blame. So says the first authoritative report into the murder of thousands of Muslim men in Srebrenice at the height of the Bosnian war in 1995. The 7,500 page document took Dutch Government researchers six years to prepare, and it condemns military and political leaders for sending peacekeepers on a mission impossible. Our Foreign Affairs correspondent Gaby Rado, who went to Srebrenice very soon after the massacre, is with us now. Gaby, how damning is this report?" GR: "Well it is very severe. It accuses the Dutch Government of sending badly armed and badly briefed Dutch soldiers into a very dangerous space out of a sense of national arrogance basically. It accuses the United Nations basically of..." There are two incidents in this one recording. The first (80% certainty) is when Jon Snow develops a frog in his throat in the first sentence, shortly after reading the text "Europe's worst massacre". There is both verbal expression and facial expression at that point; he is laughing at me, which is at odds with the serious material he is reading. His eyebrows twitch upwards, and he is smirking at the phrase "Europe's worst massacre", and its application to the Security Service's actions against me. Another aspect is that when Snow said "Europe's worst massacre", I facially reacted; in return, Snow would have seen my change of expression, and followed it with his own reaction. He almost says "United States" instead of "United Nations"; he isn't looking at his autocue, his mind is off what he is reading, instead he is looking at me in the little monitor where he sees me through the television. The first incident I'm fairly sure about, but the second I only give a 20% certainty to; it's when Gaby Rado talks of a "sense of national arrogance", supposedly about the Dutch, but perhaps the English actions against me for over a decade. If Rado's statement were about me, then it would be condemnatory of MI5 as being "arrogant"; but I cannot be reasonably certain it's about me, or much less so that Snow's reaction in the first instance, anyway. 6470 -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service --->>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<-- Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access ___ Python mailing list Python@py.cz http://www.py.cz/mailman/listinfo/python

The series was based in Scotland, with Grant Stott and Wilma Kennedy trying to find some stolen jewels. Its web home is www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/education/seeyouseeme/ The programme appeared to make some "subtext" references to my situation.

C4 SnowMail - January/2001 Certainty level: 50% In January 2001 I signed up for Channel 4 TV News's email service SnowMail, under an anonymous email address. Quite soon Jon Snow and others started getting at me in the SnowMail bulletins, so I promptly unsubscribed. Here are three distributed messages which may be intended to be against me; I have given these items a joint probability of 50% only, since it is quite difficult to be sure these are against me, although I think they may well be. First item is from 5 January 2001. "Back passage contacts" might genuinely be about Labour were communicating in a shielded way with ITN; but it may be about Snow's covert communications with me on his programme and in this bulletin; and it's a slightly strange thing for him to say, it suggests the human body's back passage. "I wish they'd come and talk on our website" Snow knows I'm subscribed to his mailing list, and he may be encouraging me to talk to him by email; again, if that comment were genuinely about Labour, then it would be a strange thing to say, since the politicians talk to Snow by phone and on his programme, so they wouldn't talk to him by email; my suspicion at the time is that he was trying to persuade me to talk to him by email, so he could decently lie that my thoughts of reference were incorrect.

A sensitive call at 6.35pm from my friendly mentor there sought to correct the impression I gave in yesterday's missive that in some way Labour was bounced into naming these latest millionaire donors. Well I'm afraid they were...rest assured Paul Hamlyn would not have been named without the diligent sleuthing of my colleagues, and had HE not been named neither would these latest two. The only serious inaccuracy I must plead to was the promise that we would put these matters to a 'senior Labour person'...alas none was forthcoming...I shall make no such rash promise again. My same mentor was on the phone again during last night's Channel 4 News urging us to 'get some reality into the programme'. I fear we may have touched a sensitive nerve...and the election campaign has not even started, or has it? I shall try to keep you posted with these 'back passage contacts' as the campaign unfolds..from all sides. I do wish they'd come and talk things over with all of us on the web site...here's an open invitation... So to today: Harold Shipman murdered as many as 250 people it now turns out. But he is never to be tried and relatives who seek closure to their uncertainties will never reap satisfaction..we have the DPP, the Chief Medical Officer and a solicitor for aggrieved and bereaved families on the programme..the world's second-worst mass murderer..can he be allowed to escape further action? Sending private/sexy emails in company time gets workers the sack..Big Brother spies on office premises..is electronic life in the work place getting out of hand?

The CIA publishes its risk assessment for the world in the coming years..beyond the CIA itself, what's the biggest threat to life and liberty?

Jon's away so the lunatics have taken over the newsroom. I am joined by Samira for tonight's show. The Depleted Uranium confusion deepens. What did Ministers and senior officers know about the risks to soldiers? What did they tell others? And why the lack of candour over the recent documents that have surfaced? Having dismissed the army report leaked yesterday warning of the dangers of exposure to DU as written by a trainee and littered with mistakes, the Ministry of Defence now accepts it was written by an experienced officer. But they won't say who. More awkwardly it emerges that senior officers decided a month after it was written that the report should be circulated to all personnel likely to come into contact with DU. But was it? Nobody seems to know. Our Science Correspondent Andrew Veitch has also visited the lab in O
