‘Waiting for Goddard…’
Samuel Beckett’s play ‘Waiting for Godot‘ was famously described as ‘a theoretical impossibility—a play in which nothing happens, that yet keeps audiences glued to their seats’. ‘Waiting for Goddard’ is fast acquiring the same sense of existentialist absurdity that passes for compassion in our complex world.
The media are waiting for Goddard so that they can report rumour and speculation as ‘fact glossed with official blessing’ – to wit, the headlines we will surely see along the lines of ‘The Goddard Report states that’ (quotation marks) “MPs were witnessed consuming headless rabbits laced with strychnine for breakfast after ritual satanic abuse” – pace the NHS reports.
The police are waiting for Goddard so that they have somewhere to send the legion of fantasists who have besieged them ever since they said they would take each and every allegation of satanic/sexual abuse, preferably by a newsworthy name, as being ‘credible and true’. ‘Care in the community’ scattered these people to the wind, Goddard offers an opportunity to get them all into the same building.
There is a faint hope that it might leave the police with sufficient resources to help protect the truly vulnerable in society rather than act as a grotesque public relations outfit for some truly deranged ‘social justice entrepreneurs’.
Only yesterday I was reading a safeguarding review concerning a young man who had lived with a perfectly manageable paranoid schizophrenia for many years. Sadly, little by little, the support network that had helped him take his medication, keep himself and his flat clean, and take steps towards employment was whittled away from him – the ubiquitous ‘cuts’ naturally. Eventually, there was no one left to notice that he had run out of medication; there was no bed available for the ‘acute incident’ he had become; there was no one other than a couple of policemen left to deal with the violent and frightened individual in front of them – and he died, restrained, alone, upon a concrete floor.
Yet we can find £18 million pounds a year, every year, for the next five years, to finance Justice Goddard’s unenviable task of listening to the fantastical tales spun by individuals who have allegedly ‘not been believed’ by the criminal justice system when they reported that an individual who had died five years beforehand had walked through a wall towards them whilst munching the head off a rabbit – and “did she know that MPs made a habit of eating the heads off rabbits – and what was she going to do about it?”
£18 million pounds a year. Unbelievable. How many desperate lives could be improved with £18 million pounds?
Social media isn’t waiting for Goddard for they know in advance that ‘it will be a whitewash’. Particularly the ‘social media entrepreneurs’. They are the keyboard jockeys who always have a ‘donate‘ button on their site. ‘Justice for Maddie!’ – donate here. ‘Justice for Hollie Grieg!’ – donate here. ‘Justice for Robert Green!’ donate here. ‘Justice for the Hampstead victims of Satanic Abuse’ – donate here.
One of the curious factors of this intense need for untraceable funds (preferably via Paypal) in order for Justice.To.Be.Done. is the familiar names and connections between the individuals who are the possessors of the ‘one truth’ that will be revealed (just as soon as their financial goal has been reached).
David Icke is probably the most prominent name and fundraiser. He is rumoured to be worth $10 million – he was certainly able to put his hand in his pocket for several hundred thousand when Canadian lawyer Richard Warman sued him for defamation last year and forced him to withdraw his ‘Children of the Matrix’ book. His ‘Freedom Foundation‘ is apparently one of those tax exempt foundations that are a tool of the New World Order he rails against. Beyond parody.
Belinda MacKenzie is another name that becomes yawningly familiar. Belinda lives in leafy Highgate and had ambitions for her home to become an “in-house charity” for impoverished activists supported by “some kind of international fund“. That information was gleaned from an injunction taken out by one of her many tenants. An injunction which also revealed that her other tenants included David Shayler and girlfriend Annie, ex-MI5 defector, who subsequently preferred to be known as ‘Dolores’ and declared he was the Messiah. Curiously, he started work with MI5 as a result of an advertisement entitled ‘Godot isn’t coming‘. Bizarre that I should have had Godot on the brain as I started to research this!
Belinda also gave board and lodging to Sabine McNeil, of whom we shall hear more later. So many mouths to feed, no wonder she needs a donate button. Belinda would tell you that Iran Aid, a charity that she was closely involved with for many years, along with her ‘is he/isn’t he’ husband, Esmail Vafa Yaghmaei, and which managed to ‘misplace’ £75 million pounds, resulting in the charity commission closing it down, is NOT the source of the millions which allowed her to buy into leafy Highgate – she says her father left her millions.
Sadly she is now reduced to penury, buying her clothes from charity shops as she begs for donations. Allegedly. First for the Hollie Greig hoax, where a young Down’s Syndrome girl was dragged round the country to appear in front of audiences claiming she had been sexually abused by a selection of every VIP Scottish lawyer anyone had ever heard of. Thank heavens she is now being cared for by social services, and not being used by the social justice entrepreneurs.
When Ms Raccoon first exposed the Hollie Greig story for the scandal of abuse by social justice entrepreneurs that it was, she was set upon by a cabal of Scottish keyboard jockeys, convinced that the tale was true, and the internet was filled with scurrilous and defamatory tales regarding Ms Raccoon designed to shut me up. It didn’t work naturally. What I didn’t know at that time was that the same people were behind the fund raising websites for ‘Justice for Hollie’ that had been behind the web sites for the Libertarian Party – another fund raising enterprise that I had blown a hole in broadside. No wonder I wasn’t popular with them…..or rather with Ian Parker Joseph – web guru to the conspiriloons.
Now I find that the same people who were behind the Hollie Grieg hoax, are the very same people behind the ‘Hampstead Satanic Abuse’ saga that has resulted in the internet being repeatedly littered with videos of two children, fully identified, who had been bullied and coerced into repeating the deranged mutterings of their step-father, despite the police having repeatedly investigated, and Mrs Justice Pauffrey having delivered a withering judgment denouncing the social justice entrepreneurs who have been promoting this patent nonsense. I would recommend you to the excellent ‘Hoaxstead Research‘ blog, which has done sterling work supporting the many innocent families who have had their lives ruined, none so much as two innocent children who were the patsies for this renewed fund raising effort.
Given Belinda’s background with charities, it was only a matter of time before someone showed an interest in the ‘Knight Foundation‘ which showed a Belinda McKenzie, and a Sabine McNeill as trustees. Lo and behold, the charity commission confirmed that it wasn’t registered as a charity and they were ‘looking into the matter’.
Sabine McNeil was behind the ‘Victims Unite‘ website, which predictably, was calling for donations to ‘get justice’ for children ‘snatched by social services for adoption’. Sadly, Sabine has had several ‘run ins’, or been ‘repressed’ as she would put it, by the Metropolitan police. They are rather keen that she comply with Justice Pauffrey’s dictum that she stop putting videos of the Hampstead children on Youtube (with accompanying advertising, naturally) and she is keen that donations flow in for her fight for ‘free speech’.
At one point, Sabine was closely associated with John Hemming the ex-Lib-Dem MP. Happily holding forth in the House of Commons on the iniquities of social services ‘stealing babies’.
Sadly, one of the women they were supporting and sending off to foreign climes where they would be ‘safe’ from the terrible social services, was Marie Black and her ‘sweet baby Luna’ – Marie is currently in prison for life for the ‘utterly depraved’ rape and sexual abuse of children over 10-year period. Young children ‘were passed around like toys’.
That John Hemming is no longer an MP: that Sabine has variously been a fugitive from justice over the past few months: that she and Belinda have been so closely associated with failed or incorrectly described charities: and ‘stories’ of abused children that turned out to be more at risk from the social justice entrepreneurs than any paedophiles, has not deterred politicians from entertaining her. I was literally rendered speechless on finding this gem a couple of weeks ago.
Once again, I am indebted to the Hoaxstead Research website, which has proved far more astute at monitoring the goings on with these people and their links to politicians than any investigative journalists.
I had set off down this rabbit hole partly because Andrea Davison amusingly resurfaced during the week. Andrea is also a ‘fugitive from justice’, or from ‘persecution and terror at the hands of the police’ as she would put it. The last I had heard of her was being interviewed by Sonia Poulton, long a favourite of the conspiriloons. Needless to say, you can support ‘Justice for Andrea’ by donating…..
Do I need to remind you all that Andrea is connected to various forgeries and Boiler Room scams via Chris Fay; he of the ‘Elm Guest House’ list of VIP paedophiles..
Andrea made a long deposition to the Macur Review; which she has just updated to include a few more ‘buzzwords’. From somewhere she had found a photograph of the gable end of Duncroft, from which she concocted a delicious tale:
Duncroft was part of an abusive State system, but certainly not in itself the worst establishment. My only thought was to escape and one night helped by the other girls I did. We knotted bed sheets together to make a rope and I descended from a third floor window to freedom.
Sadly, had Andrea actually been in Duncroft in 1965, (unnoticed by the rest of us who were there), she would have been aware that what she was looking at was the staff quarters, and that the one and only third storey window was in the attic, only accessed by a ladder through the ceiling of the headmistress’ bedroom…in itself only accessible through the locked and barred staff quarters. I mean if you were roaming the building at night Andrea, why not hop through one of the ground floor windows!!!! Why cart your cohort of helpful sheet knotting friends up through Ms Jones’ ceiling?
If this is the quality of evidence offered to the Macur Review, which was published this week, then the outcome is no surprise. The Macur Review was basically an investigation into the claims – from several social justice entrepreneurs – that the Waterhouse Inquiry had failed to reveal the full extent of VIP paedophile abuse in North Wales. Sadly, the £13.5 million Waterhouse Review itself was as a result of the howls of ‘whitewash’ that greeted the Jillings report on VIP paedophile abuse in North Wales.
Several of the original inmates of the Bryn Alyn and Bryn Estyn care homes (see Richard Webster et al) have been squabbling for years over which of them were actually abused, and which of them had merely claimed to have been abused in order to get compensation; various ‘funds’ have been set up and fallings out occurred over how and on whom the money should be spent – some of it quite violent. I have no intention of going over that old ground which has now been rehashed three times. I’m interested in who is doing the screaming.
This week it was one, Keith Gregory, a man who used to run a social justice group campaigning for ‘Justice’ for abuse victims along with Steve Messham ….’Norwas‘.
Steve Messham is the man who (erroneously) (and expensively) named Lord MacAlpine as a ‘VIP paedophile’, which resulted in the Macur Review to try to get to the bottom of the rumour and speculation flooding the internet.
Mr Gregory now says that the Review was a ‘whitewash’ and that ‘All the court documents from the Waterhouse Inquiry were scrapped’. Strangely that is not reflected in the actual Review – not that I would expect a journalist to establish the truth of a statement before printing it…
At page 10 we find that the index of the documents, supposedly on a memory stick, had gone missing, and the original taped index had been in storage so long that it had become unreadable – notwithstanding this, Lady Justice Macur had spent six months combing her way through well over a million hard copies of documents and found nothing to suggest that there were any relevant missing pages.
She did hear during her interviews of several allegations of prominent individuals who were said to be paedophiles – but the allegations ‘resulted from multiple hearsay’, and were ‘unattributed and untested sources,’ and she had found ‘no reliable evidence’ to justify naming them.
The local NSPCC chief pronounced himself ‘disappointed’ that rumours hadn’t been converted into ‘factoids’ via the gloss of an official report…
Between 1991 and 1993, North Wales Police took 3,500 statements from about 2,500 potential witnesses. They arrived at 20 ‘suspects’ of whom 8 were charged and 7 convicted.
Five years later, the Jillings report was quoted as complaining of how the authorities had dealt with complaints of abuse, branding their response “too little and too late”. Jillings declined to publish the report fearing that publishing unproven allegations would result in legal action against the council.
Lady Justice Macur also found (at 44) that the reason neither the Jillings report nor the Waterhouse Inquiry had seen fit to publish any juicy names that accorded with rumours was not that they had been redacted….but that none of the claimants had thought to mention any of the juicy names to those sitting on the earlier inquiries. These inquiries were pre-internet of course…
Running alongside the Macur Review has been Operation Pallial. As a result of the information coming into the Review, Operation Pallial ended up with some 334 people who needed to be handled sensitively and at length about their claims of sexual abuse as a child.
Inevitably this has involved a large number of people being publicly identified as suspects. One of those people was Aideen Jones, a woman who has spent a lifetime as a foster parent and carer to many disadvantaged and intellectually challenged children. The Daily Mail were happy to run a snide little piece when she was awarded the OBE.
- Care chief is awarded OBE in New Year’s Honours list AFTER her arrest in child cruelty probe
- Fundraiser was given OBE while under arrest on suspicion of child abuse
- Aideen Jones, 62, has since been charged with three cruelty offences
- She was given the OBE a year ago for services to the intellectually disabled
- This was despite her arrest the previous August in Operation Pallial.
No use looking in the Daily Mail for further information – for the story of how two committed and dedicated child care workers had been totally exonerated after living with such slurs is only in the local paper.
Denis and Aideen Jones both lost their jobs and ran up legal bills of up to £100,000 as they defended themselves against claims they were responsible for cruelty against children at the Bryn Alyn residential home in Wrexham between 1973 and the 1980.
Mr and Mrs Jones, from East Sussex, were able to prove during their nine-day trial that they did not begin working at the Bryn Alyn home until two years after the period in which the main abuse allegations were alleged to have taken place, between 1973 and 1974.
Just two amongst the many hundreds of people who have had to fight for their reputation in the face of the multiple hearsay and unsourced allegations.
There will be those who will point to the seven convictions hailed as a success by Operation Pallial. I would just point out that these centre round and include fresh charges against Peter Howarth and John Allen – already successfully prosecuted back in 94/95 by North Wales Police.
Speaking outside Chester Crown Court after the conviction of John Allen in 1995, the head of the investigation, Detective Superintendent Ackerley, said: ‘We though at first that there was a paedophile ring. Now we know that it was just two evil men.’
Claimants have come forward who felt unable to talk to the Jillings review, or the Waterhouse review, but felt confident in making fresh accusations against men already convicted of paedophilia, including some who were nothing whatsoever to do with the care homes.
I must mention also, Keith Evans, who has just received a suspended sentence for punching a boy in the stomach who had run away, and not asking him why he had run away. He was cleared of six charges of making the boy scrub floors for three days ‘until his feet bled’. His feet?
Back in 1996, the Independent newspaper published a series of speculative articles based on a copy of the Jillings report which had been handed to them by a Wrexham councillor. Scallywag magazine published further articles – pace Andrea Davison! – fomenting the idea that abuse had taken place on a far larger scale than the conviction of Howarth and Allen admitted, and the phrase ‘cover-up’ entered the vocabulary. Since then we have had Waterhouse and now Macur, at great expense, and we are now embarking on the Goddard Inquiry – that is without even mentioning Operation Midland which has just collapsed in ignominy.
Millions and millions have been expended dancing to the tune of a small group of social justice entrepreneurs who make a living out of fomenting the ‘VIP paedophile’ story. Nothing will ever satisfy them. They don’t want to be satisfied.
What is the fatal fascination that some politicians have for these people?
Is it not time that we started putting the money expended on endless inquiries into historic allegations towards protecting the children of today? The £18 million a year budgeted for ‘Waiting for Goddard’ would pay for an awful lot of child care.
Or we could even recompense those falsely accused along the way for their legal expenses…

Meantime, the CEO of the College of Policing is reported as saying that…Abuse victims should be ‘believed’
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-35868516
‘Mr Marshall said when someone makes an allegation police should “believe” their account and record a crime unless there was “credible” evidence to the contrary.
A thorough investigation should then take place, focusing on the allegation itself, not just on the victim.
Last month, a row erupted after the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, said police must adapt their approach to abuse allegations so they do not “unconditionally” believe what victims say.
Assuming that that is a true reflection of what he has said, when people like such, in positions of that kind, are effectively asserting that people have to prove their innocence at the point at which an allegation is made, aren’t they overstepping the mark? I thought that the job of the police was not to pronounce judgement, but to collect evidence that a crime may have been committed, for someone else to then prosecute if the evidence gathered showed that to be appropriate, and then a jury decide if the accused was guilty or not. STBO, really.
I’d probably be a bit more sympathetic, actually, if, after investigation, they found that there was not the evidence to support a prosecution, that they then deleted the allegation from the PNC, for CRB etc purposes, but I bet they don’t do that, do they? Not even if it was all clearly bollocks in the first place

Something for the conspiraloons… according to the Sabine-penned Wikipedia article:
‘The Forum for Stable Currencies was created by Lord Sudeley and Sabine K McNeill at the House of Lords in 1998…”It’d be fun to keep a pack of nutters as pets (in a cage, no internet connection), dropping tasty morsels like the following to them through the bars:
“The Forum for Stable Currencies has been meeting monthly in the House of Lords for two years now, attracting leading figures from the world of small business and across the political spectrum – and presided over by the pipe-smoking Lord Sudeley, chairman of the Monday Club.”
A pipe? Close but no Savile-cigar. But the bleeding Monday Club?!? Come on, Sabine – confess!!!

Fascinating to look at the links among the scams, the common factor of course being the League of Social Justice Entrepreneurs (someone should really trademark this before Belinda McK. gets her grubby mitts on it–I sense a ‘donate’ button in its immediate future).
One of the strangest aspects is, as you say, the fact that these people do not want things to be resolved. As a relative latecomer to the scene, I confess to complete puzzlement when I saw the reaction outside the Royal Courts of Justice last March, when Mrs Justice Pauffley declared the entire Hampstead Satanic cult thing a hoax.
In my naïveté, I’d thought the protesters would be overjoyed to hear that 30 or so small children had not been horribly victimised, and thousands of babies had not been beheaded, skinned, and cooked at McDonald’s. Hahahahaha. More fool me.
And yes, wouldn’t it be nice if the government could perhaps spend their millions of pounds on real abuse survivors and victims of cutbacks, rather than on chasing chimeras round about the countryside?

Your blog is very interesting. What do you think the motives are of the people making these false allegations?
- El Coyote
March 24, 2016 at 1:44 pm -
That’s a very good question, which I’m mainly equipped to answer as it pertains to the Hampstead SRA hoax.
In some cases, I think the motives spring from a wish to ‘monetise’ the dramatic false allegations for personal gain; in some cases the motive seems to have to do with promoting a conspiracy-centred agenda; in some cases it’s about validating an evangelical/charismatic Christian world-view in which Satanists commit foul crimes against children; and in some cases I think there is verifiable mental illness (such as a delusional disorder) at work.
The problem is that these motives seem to blend and overlap in different proponents: the McKenzie friend who is both profiting from donations to ‘the cause’ and also having her belief in a Satanic ruling elite validated, for example; or the mentally ill person whose own delusions mesh well and are supported by the conspiracy theories she hears from her friends.
I’ve also seen instances of genuine concern and caring in some of those who’ve been drawn into supporting the case, as people believe the tale they are fed, and fully believe that they are doing the right thing and ‘supporting the children’ by spreading their images and details of their abuse across the internet. In some ways, I feel these people are victims of the hoax as well.

Does anyone have any information on that Peter Saunders character, like from which university he got his degree in education; is he really married with two kids, etc?

He recently attacked Cardinal George Pell- No 3 at The Vatican – on the Oz 60Mins. Hyperventilated with no facts & called him a ‘psychopath’. Saunders also happened to be on The Vatican’s committee to work out a response to Church child abuse. Pell issued libel proceedings while Saunders demanded Pell be booted from The Vatican.
Quietly resigned recently ( apparently a condition of libel proceedings ) and word was- other committee members were delighted to get rid of him as they said he was a hectoring bully who tried to dominate them. Quietly slipped out of Rome and has re-surfaced back in the UK with some new scheme & doing the rounds of the media. Sometimes it goes to their head and they think they are all powerful but his demands to The Pope were a step too far.

I take it you will be writing a blog on Alan Johnson? I’ve no doubt the “victim” is milking it for all it’s worth, and 6 years sounds excessive, especially when you consider in 1984 a bloke got the same for strangling his 3 daughters! Having said that, I have no sympathy for him, if he’d been “grooming” her for so long, he could have waited a few months and had full sex with her legally.

The ever-present ‘donate’ button on Sabine’s ‘Victims Unite’ site (linked to in article) has some text below it: “With this button you can donate to the ‘Victims Fund’ via PayPal.” The ever-changing names are something of a constant in Sabine-land, and hovering over the ‘Victims Fund’ (NOT ‘Victims Unite’) shows that you’ll be heading down the burrow – should you choose to you click it – to ‘Public Protection Network’.
Hovering over the actual PayPal button tells a different story – the money is going to Sabine & her possibly-revolutionary ‘3D-Metrics’, er, thing. (You could spend a whole day, as I pointlessly once did, counting the dodgy sites/people with which/whom she is connected.)She explains in this ‘presentation’ (regarding proteins, about which she knows nothing but, as she says, “thanks to Google it is possible” to, er, know) what THAT idea is all about. Maybe I’m just thick, but I had literally no idea what she was on about.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44biO1vIqaQI do know that she is very fond of name dropping & of rolling out her life-story which usually mentions her time at CERN (helping out Nobel Prize winners with their problems), her parents simultaneously escaping both the Nazis & the Commies (from memory, and by heroically swimming a river or summat), getting blown-up in a nuclear explosion & being plagued ever since by a pain no doctor can find the root of, etc., etc….

Like many people, I believe that Noel Edmonds does not appear often enough on the television, and that the recent re-launching of ‘Top Gear’ missed a trick in not inviting him back as a presenter, as he used to be. My televisual experience would be greatly improved by showing more of Noel.
It is good news, therefore, that the ‘Daily Mail’ reports that Channel 4 is shortly to employ Noel in a Saturday night show to rival Ant and Dec. I, for one, shall certainly buy a television – my existing set has not worked since they turned off the analogue signal – and a license (of course), to tune in.
But what poverty of imagination! Surely his zany humour and slightly feminine clothing would brighten up the news and current affairs programmes – and I just point out here that Jeremy Paxman has retired from ‘Newsnight’, so the task of interviewing various Islamic nut-cases is vacant, and that the sad death of Steve Irwin has created a vacancy has created a vacancy for someone prepared to fondle and poke various venomous and aggressive animals. More Noel, please!
