WAR CRIMES

I have devoted much work to investigating and exposing war crimes. In 1989 Lord Aldington sued me for libel, after I accused him of being a war criminal. It was this case, at which it was subsequently discovered that Aldington had perjured himself throughout, which first opened my eyes to the extent to which corruption has taken over much of English public life. Judge Michael Davies, whose open bias throughout the trial was subjected to considerable adverse press coverage, lived within ten miles of Aldington's home! Not only this, but they were fellow-members of the small and exclusive Rye Golf Club. Needless to say, this was kept secret during the trial.



Still more sinister was the activity of leading members of the Conservative Government, who secretly arranged the removal of files essential to the defence case from the Public Record Office. This scandalous conspiracy was exposed by the Sunday Times in a major feature article by Tim Rayment: "The Massacre and the Ministers" (7 April 1996).



I was enabled to survive through the support of public opinion in this country and abroad, but I have often reflected on the fate of less high-profile figures who cross the Establishment.
