Our thanks to a number of people for sending us links to this good news. It goes without saying that the original conviction – following which he was imprisoned for two years – was a gross miscarriage of justice.

Our thanks to John for this. Extracts:

An undergraduate who helped her younger brother run a student drug smuggling ring has been spared jail after pleading a prison term would ‘blight’ her future career.

Privately-educated Poppy Murray, 22, acted as a go-between for teenage sibling Joel, 19, who dealt ‘recreational’ narcotics to Manchester’s party set…

At Minshull Street Crown Court, Joel and Poppy pleased guilty to supplying cocaine. But although he was locked away for seven years, his older sister, who initially said she did not see ‘anything morally wrong’ with supplying ‘recreational’ drugs to friends, got 12 months’ jail, suspended for 18 months.

Wonderful news. I’ve been a fan of His Royal Bobness since buying his More Greatest Hits Vol. II LP (1971) when I was 14, a mere 44 years ago. How time flies. I’ve seen him perform maybe five or six times, the most memorable being the first time, with my beautiful fiancee when I was about 20, at a huge open-air concert at Blackbushe Aerodrome, in Surrey. 1977 or 1978, I think. Special Snowflake (Laura Bates) and Kate Smurfwaite weren’t even born then. Happy days. We couldn’t have predicted the hell that was to come.

Hatchet-faced feminists will say Joni Mitchell should have won the prize. Ha. Don’t get me wrong, Blue (1971) is a remarkable work, one of my favourite albums of the last half century, but most of her output pales into insignificance compared with Blue or Bob Dylan’s huge canon. And no, that’s not a euphemism.

Our thanks to Stuart for this. The start of the piece:

One of the country’s top prosecutors is facing professional ruin following sensational claims in a London courtroom that she lied to judges in order to hide damning evidence of police corruption – at the risk of sending an innocent man to jail.

At the heart of the growing scandal, whose origins were exposed by this newspaper in February, is Sasha Wass QC, the barrister who prosecuted entertainer Rolf Harris and the £2 billion rogue trader Kweku Adoboli.

A court has heard claims that Ms Wass not only buried an official report by the Metropolitan Police confirming there was evidence that officers in its anti-corruption unit had taken bribes, but that she prosecuted the lawyer who brought the report to the attention of the authorities for perverting the course of justice.

The alleged attempted cover-up almost led to a lengthy prison sentence for the man who blew the whistle, Bhadresh Gohil.

On the first of the two days of our anti-MGM protests outside the Conservative party conference last week, I was interviewed (on my mobile phone, a frustrating method) by Julia Hartley-Brewer. The file is here (11:37). I’ve put some background information under the file, including a link to an interview with Julia in March 2013, just a month after we launched J4MB.

My thanks to Ken for informing me that one of my London Live TV interviews has had 450,000+ views since it was posted on the Epic Feminist Fails YouTube channel less than four months ago. The piece was titled (by the person or persons behind the channel) Feminists get owned by men’s rights activist!!.

On International Men’s Day, we’ll be supporting this. The march will be from the Royal Courts of Justice to the Houses of Parliament – 11:00, Saturday, 19 November. The full description:

Family lives matter.

Time to talk, Time to listen, Time to act,
suicide is not an option.

Fighting for family law reform and equal rights.

Aiming to highlight the failings of the family/divorce courts and associated organization’s that can lead to so many men committing/considering suicide. Also a celebration of all fathers and mens groups that help in these dark times.

We aim to show the magnitude of the problem by taking teddies/dolls to parliament with our children’s first names attached. Each teddy/doll representing a child missing out on the love of a father, grandfather, grandmothers, aunts, uncles, siblings and cousins. After the event the teddies and dolls will be donated to a childrens charity.

The name tags sent to parliament.

Yesterday I was on trial at Hammersmith Magistrate’s Court, answering a charge of obstructing the highway during an anti-MGM protest in Parliament Square in June. The video is here, the relevant sequences are 6:30 – 7:54, 8:15 – 9:25, 13:31 – 13:38, a total of 161 seconds.

Firstly I should like to thank the six supporters who turned up and witnessed the trial, their presence meant a lot to me. I should particularly like to thank Ian for his legal advice in the months before the trial, and for sitting with me as a ‘McKenzie friend’ during it, providing advice as the trial progressed.

I represented myself, Legal Aid is not available for such cases. The judge was a woman, and was friendly throughout the proceedings. She watched our YouTube video of the matter twice. The CCTV footage provided by the prosecution was hopeless.

Our key objective yesterday was to test the ‘legal excuse’ defence, with a view to possibly using it in relation to future civil disobedience actions. In my defence, I read out a statement.

The judge rejected the ‘legal excuse’ defence, and I’ll be posting a transcript of her lengthy judgement when it’s made available to us, hopefully shortly. We do not believe she gave adequate weight to the minimal disruption caused by my actions, when compared with major protests which can block roads for hours, and no arrests (or few) are made.

We shall be appealing , and a retrial will take place at Isleworth Crown Court at some point in the next 3-6 months. The trial, in common with yesterday’s, will not include a jury. I hope that one day this matter will be tried in the presence of a jury.

I was fined £80, and I also have to pay £250 of the £680 prosecution costs, along with a £30 victim surcharge, a total of £360. In the light of my financial circumstances, the judge agreed I could pay £25 monthly. I was delighted after the trial when Richie gave me £30 for the first monthly payment, and said, ‘use the balance for a pint of beer’. In the afternoon Jordan sent £50 by PayPal for the second and third months. I thank them both warmly, and I shall pay the balance out of my own funds, not party funds. So far my life of crime has been cashflow positive.

We shall continue pursuing legal options for as long as possible. We can win this battle and we shall win it.

Our thanks to SDW for posting the following comment in response to Paul Elam’s video, ‘The Psychology of Hate’. He writes:

Thank you again Mike for the opportunity to raise awareness of this disturbing subject.

In regard to the topic of psychology, psychiatry, and the feminisation of society I would respectfully point any self-respecting genuinely caring and compassionate man (or woman for that matter) in the following direction… Please type into google three simple words :

‘Boys and Ritalin’.

Then simply read and consider.

It’s all there. I would urge all self respecting individuals to consider the role that psychiatry and education is playing in the misappropriation of mental-health ‘care’ practice.

Institutionalised malpractice must be identified and corrected wherever it is found. I suggest that the use of psychiatric pharmaceutical remedies for young people is an unacceptible corruption of the process of ‘healthcare’. It is time to take the initiative. The medication and effective sedation and pharmaceutical personality adjustment of growing lads in this society (to suit a predominently female perception of what constitues masculinuty) must stop.

Those self-serving individuals who are wilfully diagnosing, prescribing, and supplying toxic pharmaceuticals to children (in this case predominently boys) must be educated: Leave the boys alone if you do not understand them. And better still, involve capable men in the process of mentoring and guiding boys through their formative years. The education system is predominently a female managed organisation. This is a statistical fact. The guidance of boys in difficulty has become a female biased process. Boys without fathers being raised by single mothers attending schools managed and run by women are struggling to make sense of masculinity and their role as boys and men in the community. We cannot allow their guidance to come almost excusively from women. That is not logical.

I would not expect male teachers and male SEN psychiatrists to coach and lead teenagers girls through puberty. I cannot for the life of me understand why we stand back and let a female-orientated psychiatric and educuation system decide the fate of the current generation of boys.

This is a scandal which we as a society appear to accept on the assumption that ‘care givers’ always ‘know best’. The reality is not that simple. I would go further to suggest that the process of Munchausen by Proxy has taken on an institutionalised form within psychiatry and the education system today. The labelling of children, particularly of boys experiencing social and emotional difficulty, is a reflection of the ineffective pastoral leadership prevalent within our culture. To blame and drug boys because they are socially and emotionally confused is outrageous and as responsible men we have a duty to stand up and defend the young men of our community, and to protect them from a systematic feminist-based gender-biased socio-politically motivated psychiatric education policy.

These appear to be harsh statements. Many women are doing their absolute best with good intention to provide a balanced experience for boys and girls. However the element of masculine influence and guidance within eduation and psychiatry determine that tjose good intentions are not necessarily direction official policy in either field.

I would reasonably emphasise that the objective of education, and psychiatry within education, is to raise self-awarenes and to empower developiing individuals. It is not intended to subdue, to submit, or to control the behaviour of individuals whether male, female, young, or old.

In order to have self-awareness and understanding it is necessary to have clarity of thought. Faith in one’s own capacity to fulfil ones own potential is the most important element towards fulfilling one’s own potential. The developement of autonomy depends on having faith in ones own decision making ability. The prescribing of drugs to ‘fix’ a child’s behaviour or perceptions is counter-productive and prevents that childs ability to acheive an understanding of self-control and responsibility in the interest of the self and others. It actually creates a culture of reliance and dependance on others.

I would repeat my gratitude in conclusion. Thankyou for reading these words and for taking the time to consider the content here. The younger generation need our support in their journey towards effective lives of contentment.

With Concern and Best Regards SDW.
