Alex Marshall, CEO, College of Policing

[By email]

Dear Mr. Vaughan and Mr. Marshall,

Suspected perversion of the course of justice by former Chief Constable Sara Thornton

I am writing formally to draw to the attention of ACPO (and its successor body the Nattional Police Chiefs’ Council) and the College of Policing my concerns that Chief Constable Sara Thornton has perverted the course of justice with respect to a suspected murder, URN 514 of 28^th October 2010.

Letter to Deputy Chief Constable Francis Habgood

Today I am writing to Deputy Chief Constable Francis Habgood of Thames Valley Police formally to report the suspected crime of perversion of the course of justice by Ms. Thornton.

I had previously reported to the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner, Anthony Stansfeld, suspected perversion of the course of justice by Ms. Thornton.

Mr. Stansfeld unlawfully concealed the suspected crime by Ms. Thornton.

Ms. Thornton has now left Thames Valley Police.

Accordingly, I am now reporting formally to DCC Habgood the suspected crimes of perversion of the course of justice by Ms. Thornton and by Mr. Stansfeld.

Previous correspondence

There is a body of previous correspondence between myself and both Thames Valley Police and the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner.

I hereby give to Thames Valley Police and the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner permission to disclose to both ACPO (and the NPCC) and the College of Policing any past correspondence from me relating to suspected perversion of the course of justice arising from URN 514 of 28^th October 2010 which might otherwise fall to be considered as confidential.

This letter is a public document.

I am placing a copy of this letter on my Criminal State blog here:

Enc: Letter of 16^th March 2015 to Deputy Chief Constable Francis Habgood, Thames Valley Police

Report to Thames Valley Police re suspected perversion of the course of justice by former Chief Constable Sara Thornton

Today I am sending a formal report to Thames Valley Police, in the person of Deputy Chief Constable Francis Habgood, regarding suspected perversion of the course of justice by former Thames Valley Chief Constable Sara Thornton.

The text of the letter is below:

16^th March 2015

Deputy Chief Constable Francis Habgood,

Thames Valley Police

Dear Mr. Habgood,

URN 514 of 28^th October 2010

Suspected perversion of the course of justice by former Chief Constable Sara Thornton

Suspected perversion of the course of justice by Anthony Stansfeld, Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner

I am writing to report to you as a constable the suspected crime of perversion of the course of justice by former Chief Constable Sara Thornton.

You are, of course, aware of previous correspondence on this matter over the last few years.

Now that Chief Constable Thornton, who I view as being a corrupt Police officer, has left Thames Valley Police it is possible that investigation of this serious matter may, finally, proceed in accordance with the requirements of the Law.

URN 514 of 28^th October 2010

You are aware that on 28^th October 2010 I formally reported my suspicion that Dr. David Kelly may have been murdered.

The Unique Refernce Number allocated to the suspected murder of Dr. Kelly was URN 514 of 28^th October 2010.

I made that report of suspected crime as a retired doctor following study of the postmortem and toxicology reports on Dr. Kelly which had been released by the Ministry of Justice on 22^nd October 2010.

You are, of course, aware that Thames Valley Police did not take even the elementary step of taking a formal statement from me.

You may not be aware that I formally raised the matter of the suspected perversion of the course of justice by former Chief Constable Thornton with the Home Affairs Select Committee.

See

http://data.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/committeeevidence.svc/evidencedocument/home-affairs-committee/police-and-crime-commissioners-progress-to-date/written/5035.pdf

for my written evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee. The written evidence considers other issues of Police corruption too.

Perversion of the course of justice by Anthony Stansfeld

The written evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee mentions some of the background to the suspected perversion of the course of justice by Anthony Stansfeld, Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner.

Availability to make a formal statement

For the avoidance of doubt I am available, with reasonable notice, to make a formal statement at a Police station convenient to me with respect to the allegations of perversion of the course of justice by Ms. Thornton and by Mr. Stansfeld.

I would, of course, ask that any such statement be taken by an external Police force given the obvious conflict of interests which would arise should Thames Valley Police officers investigate these serious matters.

I am also available to make a formal statement with respect to the suspected murder of Dr. David Kelly, URN 514 of 28^th October 2010.

Thames Valley Police should have formally taken a statement on the suspected murder of Dr. Kelly over four years ago. Better late than never.

Actions requested of you

I ask the following of you:

1. That you record the suspected crime of perversion of the course of justice by former Chief Constable Sara Thornton
2. That you separately record the suspected crime of perversion of the course of justice by Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner, Anthony Stansfeld
3. That you promptly acknowledge receipt of this letter including the appropriate Reference Numbers with respect to each of the suspected crimes of perversion of the course of justice by Ms. Thornton and by Mr. Stansfeld
4. That you carefully consider whether the reported suspected crime relating to Ms. Thornton is a “recordable conduct matter” which the Law requires you, after recording, to report to the Independent Police Complaints Commission. (It is.)
5. That you copy to me your letter of referral to the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
6. That Thames Valley Police take a statement from me with respect to my suspicions that Dr. David Kelly may have been murdered.

Distribution

This letter is a public document.

I am placing a copy of it on my Criminal State blog here:

I am also copying this letter to Chief Constable Peter Vaughan (in his role as acting head of ACPO) and to Alex Marshall, in his role as Chief Executive Officer of the College of Policing.

I am further copying the letter to Mark Sedwill, Permanent Secretary at the Home Office, for information and consideration with respect to the proposed appointment of former Chief Constable Thornton as Chair of the National Police Chiefs’ Council.

This letter is also copied to Rob Wilson MP with respect to alleged improper conduct by former Chief Constable Thornton (mentioned in an article in yesterday’s Mail on Sunday) and Ms. Thornton’s reported threat to sue Mr. Wilson.

I look forward to your early reply.

Yours sincerely

The untouchables - Powerful Paedophiles and British Military Terrorists

For some time now I've been thinking about the similarities between Britain's VIP paedophiles and Britain's Military Terrorists.

Both Powerful Paedophiles and British Military Terrorists are, in my mind, archetypal examples of Britain's "Criminal State" in action.

What are the common features of the Powerful Paedophile and the British Military Terrorist?

Being "untouchable" is a first common feature.

An assumption of being able to injure and kill others without being held to account for their actions, too, is a common feature.

Cover-up of their actions by the Police is a further common feature.

Cover-up by bodies such as the Independent Police Complaints Commission is a fourth common feature.

Inadequate reporting by much of the mainstream media is a fifth common feature.

Protection by the actions or failures to act of the Attorney General and Director of Public Prosecutions and the Crown Prosecution Service is shaping up to be a sixth common factor.

For readers of my blog on the UK Child Abuse Inquiry the factors stated will be pretty obvious in their application to child abuse.

1. Powerful paedophiles operated for years and were, in effect, untouchable
2. In recent weeks it's become increasingly clear that powerful paedophiles, at least at times, resorted to murder either for pleasure or to demonstrate their power
3. The Police around the UK protected the powerful paedophiles e.g. the seizure of the Barbara Castle dossier from Don Hale
4. The mainstream media have been worryingly silent on the issue of child abuse by powerful paedophiles. Most coverage, until very recently has been by the tabloid press and, outstandingly, by Exaro News. Honourable exceptions in the mainstream media include the articles by Nick Davies which I refer to here: I didn't know. I simply didn't know
5. The role of the former Attorney General Michael Havers and the former Director of Public Prosecution Thomas Hetherington in the cover-up of child abuse relating to Kincora and Sir Peter Hayman will come readily to mind.

They may be less sure what I mean by British Military Terrorism and how the listed factors apply to British Military Terrorism and British Military Terrorists.

If you're unsure what I mean by British Military Terrorism a good place to start is perhaps my blog post entitled,
Sergeant Alexander Blackman: One man's hero is another man's terrorist

One man's hero is, indeed, another man's terrorist.

But, I believe, it is not fanciful to label Sergeant Blackman a terrorist.

The Iraq War was terrorism in my view:
Was the Iraq War "terrorism" in UK Law?

David Cameron's air strikes in Iraq are also terrorism:
The air strikes in Iraq are unlawful, contrary to the lies David Cameron told the House of Commons

Mr. Cameron's untouchable status is facilitated by a deception perpetrated, in effect, on the House of Commons by the Attorney General, Jeremy Wright:
Unlawful UK air strikes in Iraq - Letter of 25th September 2014 to UK Attorney General and Solicitor General

And, it seems, that Mr. Cameron's terrorism in Iraq is being unlawfully concealed by Chief Constable Chris Sims and Assistant Chief Constable Marcus Beale of West Midlands Police:
RAF Terrorism in Iraq - Section 56 offences by David Cameron MP and Michael Fallon MP reported to West Midlands Police

Police protection of powerful terrorists, specifically British Military Terrorists, is not new. See, for example, my letter of 2nd February 2010 to Sir Paul Stephenson and the then Assistant Commissioner John Yates:
Terrorism Act 2000 Section 56 offences etc - Letter of 2nd February 2010 to Sir Paul Stephenson and John Yates

I also wrote to the Independent Police Complaints Commission asking them to review what I believe to have been the unlawful cover-up of British Military Terrorism by Sir Paul Stephenson and John Yates. That, too, was blocked by what I view as unlawful actions by Deborah Glass and Graeme Thame.

I am currently attempting to bring a private prosecution against David Cameron and Michael Fallon with respect to the ongoing British Military Terrorism in Iraq.

See
Private prosecution of David Cameron MP and Michael Fallon MP for offences contrary to Section 56 Terrorism Act 2000
for a copy of my request for the formal Consent of the Director of Public Prosecutions.

The Law requires that I seek both the Consent of the Director of Public Prosecutions and the Permission of the Attorney General before I can bring a private prosecution of Mr. Cameron and Mr. Fallon.

Will those in the System seek to protect Mr.Cameron and Mr. Fallon from prosecution of their offences contrary to Section56 of the Terrorism Act 2000? I fully expect that they will.

The parallels I draw between the untouchable Powerful Paedophile and the untouchable British Military Terrorist aren't exact but, in my view, they deserve careful thought.

In a democracy is it acceptable that powerful paedophiles and British Military Terrorists should, in effect, have been above the Law?

I believe it is totally unaceptable. Your view may differ.

RAF Terrorism in Iraq - Section 56 offences by David Cameron MP and Michael Fallon MP reported to West Midlands Police

A little time ago I reported by letter to West Midlands Police suspected criminal offences by David Cameron MP and Michael Fallon MP, contrary to Section 56 of the Terrorism Act 2000.

The letter to West Midlands Police relates to acts of terrorism (as defined in Section 1 of the Terrorism Act 2000).

The letter was sent by email. The text of the letter follows here:

1^st  October 2014

To:

Chief Constable Chris Sims, West Midlands Police

ACC Marcus Beale, West Midlands Police

Gentlemen,

RAF air strikes in Iraq are “terrorism” in the meaning of Section 1 of the Terrorism Act 2000

Offences contrary to Section 56 of the Terrorism Act 2000

1. David Cameron MP
2. Michael Fallon MP

I write to report to each of you as constables suspected offences contrary to Section 56 of the Terrorism Act 2000 by David Cameron MP and Michael Fallon MP.

The air strikes are terrorism – Section 1 Terrorism Act 2000

The air strikes in Iraq are, in my view, visibly terrorism in the meaning of Section 1 of the Terrorism Act 2000.

Here is my reasoning.

Subsection 1(3) indicates that where explosives are used (as they must be in air strikes) then only two further criteria require to be satisfied for terrorism to exist.

The two necessary criteria are expressed in Subsections 1(1)(a)and 1(1)(c).

The criteria expressed in Subsection 1(1)(a) are satisfied since air strikes inevitably involve serious injory to one or more individuals and/or serious damage to property. Ministry of Defence media releases confirm destruction of property.

The criteria expressed in Subsection 1(1)(c) are satisfied since the air strikes are being conducted for a political cause – the degrading and/or destruction of ISIS.

The characteristics of the air strikes demonstrate that Mr. Cameron has initiated acts of terrorism in Iraq by the Royal Air Force.

Section 56 offences

Section 56 of the Terrorism Act 2000 indicates that a person who directs at any level an organisation carrying out acts of terrorism commits an offence.

It seems to me that Mr. Cameron, as Prime Minister, and Mr. Fallon, as Secretary of State for Defence, each play a role in directing the UK Armed Forces in committing acts of terrorism in Iraq.

Offences committed by others

It is evident that Mr. Cameron and Mr. Fallon are not acting alone in committing acts of terrorism with respect to the air strikes in Iraq.

With regard to these acts of terorism in Iraq you will, if you are honest Police officers, seek to ensure that all who have committed offences contrary to the provisions of the Terrorism Act 2000 and other related legislation will be fully investigated.

Jurisdiction

The Terrorism Act 2000 provides that West Midlands Police has jurisdiction with respect to the suspected offences.

Prevention of additional acts of terrorism

I understand that, as Police officers, you have a duty to prevent crime.

I ask that you ensure that you take all necessary steps to ensure that RAF terrorism in Iraq is brought to an end forthwith.

Actions requested of you

I ask that you record and fully investigate the suspected Section 56 offences, as required by Law.

I ask that you ensure that additional acts of terrorism are stopped forthwith.

I very much hope that West Midlands Police will demonstrate that it, unlike at least one other Police force, does not operate a policy of targetting Moslems with respect to investigating acts of terrorism.

Distribution

For the avoidance of doubt this letter is a public document.

I look forward to your early reply.

Yours sincerely

(Dr) Andrew Watt
