Wales is particularly proud of two of its poets: Dylan Thomas and R.S. Thomas. There is an irony here in that, at least for much of their lives, both Dylan and R.S. were very rude indeed about the sort of people who now hail them as heroes. Dylan Thomas famously took the piss out of Wales and the Welsh, most famously of course in 'Under Milk Wood' and he was considered pretty much beyond the pale by many in Wales until he was safely dead.
R.S. Thomas was embraced while he was still alive and is famous as a nationalist poet who was very hostile towards the English. However R.S. Thomas's letters and diaries compiled when he was at UCNW (Bangor University) are scathing about the Welsh-speaking students from areas like the Llyn – where R.S. Thomas later made his home as the vicar of Aberdaron – in rural Wales; when R.S. was a student he made it clear that as far as he was concerned, the Welsh students were a bunch of ignorant near-animals. R.S. Thomas's son Gwydion has spent much of his adult life in the Far East and his comments about his father don't paint a very flattering picture of R.S.
R.S. Thomas's view of Wales is relentlessly bleak, such as the sentiments expressed in 'Welsh landscape':
To live in Wales is to be conscious
At dusk of the spilled blood
That went into the making of the wild sky,
Dyeing the immaculate rivers
In all their courses.
It is to be aware,
Above the noisy tractor
And hum of the machine
Of strife in the strung woods,
Vibrant with sped arrows.
You cannot live in the present,
At least not in Wales.
There is the language for instance,
The soft consonants
Strange to the ear.
There are cries in the dark at night
As owls answer the moon,
And thick ambush of shadows,
Hushed at the fields' corners.
There is no present in Wales,
And no future;
There is only the past,
Brittle with relics,
Wind-bitten towers and castles
With sham ghosts;
Mouldering quarries and mines;
And an impotent people,
Sick with inbreeding,
Worrying the carcass of an old song.
His poem 'Meet The Family' articulates a truly grim imagined past of a family who's portraits over generations are displayed in the family home:
John One takes his place at the table/He is the first part of the fable
His eyes are dry as a dead leaf/Look on him and learn grief
John Two stands in the door done
You have seen that face before/Leaning out of a dark past
Tortured in thoughts bitter blast
John Three is still outside/Drooling as the daylight died on the wet stones
His hands are crossed in mourning
For a playmate lost
John Four and his lean wife/Whose forced complicity gave life
To each loathed foetus
Stare from the wall/Dead not absent
The night falls
In this blog post I will provide details of a family who have exerted a strong influence on Wales, much stronger than Dylan's and R.S. Thomas's families ever did.
Previous posts (eg. 'Enter Professor Robert Bluglass CBE') have detailed how Dafydd's mate Bluglass concealed the crimes of Dafydd and the gang in 1989, when Bluglass finally investigated – or indeed failed to investigate – my complaint against Dafydd et al. This was the only time that a complaint of mine was 'investigated', other complaints were simply ignored or batted into the long grass. This was not the only time that Bluglass – let alone his network – came to the rescue of Dafydd and the gang. Dafydd and the gang had a branch of their empire in Liverpool and in that capacity, they ruled over Ashworth Hospital on Merseyside, which was used as the Final Solution for some of the victims of Dafydd's gang. The abuses at Ashworth were horrific, so much so that even the best efforts of Gov't could not deny them by the late 1980s. See eg. post 'Security, Security'.
Ashworth was the subject of two public inquiries in the 1990s, the Blom-Cooper Inquiry and the Fallon Inquiry; Dafydd's mate Bluglass was a member of the Fallon Inquiry. The Fallon Inquiry reported specifically on the Personality Disorder Unit in Ashworth, Lawrence Ward. Which was established and managed by Dr Chris Hunter, who was the man who Chaired a case conference about me and took evidence from Tony Francis and Dafydd as well as a number of people who had never met me, just before the first Inquiry into Ashworth, the Blom-Cooper Inquiry. Chris Hunter had never met me either. Hunter concluded from his case conference that I had was extremely dangerous, had a homicidal capacity and he offered to prepare an opinion for the Court. Was I facing any charges at the time? No, I was, when the case conference took place, sitting in a London Medical School and as a postgrad not a patient. I knew nothing of this case conference until some four years ago when I finally received copies of all of my records. I had never previously heard of Chris Hunter. See post 'The Night Of The (Dr Chris) Hunter' for details.
When a patient at Ashworth was battered to death by the staff, it was Bluglass who investigated. To assist him in his task, Bluglass sought the assistance of two senior Angels, one of whom was a senior Angel from Bluglass's own Reaside Clinic in Birmingham, the other being a senior Angel of Dafydd's who was employed by Clwyd Health Authority. Bluglass called upon the talents of Dafydd's Angel after Bluglass had concealed the crimes of Dafydd et al in 1989.
When I was illegally imprisoned by Dafydd in the North Wales Hospital in Dec 1986/Jan 1987, I was violently assaulted by an Angel called Stephen Rose. My complaint was not investigated but I did refuse to shut up about Rose. The North Wales Hospital's solution was to transfer Stephen Rose to a job at Park Lane Hospital, which shortly after Rose arrived merged with Moss Side, to form Ashworth.
This collection of people traffickers and abusers were all one big happy family, as foul as the foulest that could ever have been conjured up by the imagination of R.S. Thomas. Who, being a clergyman in Gwynedd, would have known about Dafydd and the gang, because for years one of the gang's umbrellas was Gwilym Williams, the Bishop of Bangor, 1957-82, who also doubled up as the Archbishop of Wales, 1971-82. See previous posts.
Some years ago, Bluglass mysteriously requested that his name should be removed from the Medical Register and he virtually disappeared from the internet as well, or he did until I began this blog. The only reason why a Top Doc asks to be removed from the Medical Register is in the event of them having been caught red handed doing something so serious that a major scandal is threatened. If one voluntarily has one's name removed, there can be no investigation by the GMC and 'the doctor retains their good name'.
Trebles all round! I'll drink to that Bluglass! Bottoms Up!
That Bluglass was almost erased from medical history was extraordinary, because for years he was considered to be the leading forensic psychiatrist in the UK and he wrote the Mental Health Act 1983. Bluglass wrote that Act as a response to Dafydd's abuse of the Mental Health Act 1959 in the Mary Wynch case, to show that Something Had Been Done. So no-one should have been surprised that, when Dafydd Did it Again, ie. illegally imprisoned someone – me – under Bluglass's new Act soon after it was on the statute books, that it was Bluglass who was called in by the Welsh Office to (fail to) investigate. The Welsh Office who had concealed the wrongdoing re Mary Wynch and who were also concealing the en masse abuse of the kids in children's homes in north Wales.

Since June 1996 – the month that William Hague announced the Waterhouse Inquiry, which was rigged from beginning to end and constituted one huge cover-up of the criminality in north Wales and its mycelia into the wider UK and Europe – Bluglass has been a Director of Compton Verney Coach House Ltd (see post 'The Village'). Compton Verney is one of the finest art galleries in Europe and is located in Warwickshire. Although Bluglass went to St Andrew's University, he has lifelong links with Warwickshire. He features as an Old Warwickian on the website of Warwick School and held the Chair of Forensic Psychiatry at Birmingham University for many years; Bluglass also Chaired one of the NHS Boards in Birmingham and lived/lives in Solihull, although he had/has a second home in the Pyrenees. Bluglass's wife Kerry Bluglass is a psychiatrist who was/is also based at Birmingham University. Unlike Robert Bluglass, Kerry Bluglass has never requested that her name be removed from the Medical Register.
Warwick School, one of Britain's oldest and proudest public schools:

It was in 1993 that the Peter Moores Foundation bought Compton Verney House, then categorised as a building 'at risk' and transferred the ownership to a Trust supported by the Foundation. By 1993, my career had been ruined as had the careers of four of my friends who were witness to the crimes of Dafydd and the gang. Another friend who was a witness had been killed by the gang and five witnesses to the North Wales Child Abuse Scandal had been killed by a firebomb the year before, in April 1992 (see post 'The Silence Of The Welsh Lambs').
In March 2004 the Compton Verney Gallery at the House was opened by Carlo.
So what is the Peter Moores Foundation, which invested an enormous amount of money into a prestige initiative with one of Dafydd's mates at the centre of it?
The Peter Moores Foundation is a charidee which was established in 1964 by Peter Moores when Moores was 32 years old, which supported music and the visual arts, but also education, health, social and environmental projects. The Foundation continued in existence until 5 April 2014, when its funds were exhausted. Compton Verney probably did that alone, so one wonders what was in it re Compton Verney for the Peter Moores Foundation. During its fifty years of existence, the Foundation donated over ₤231 million to the causes that it supported.
The Peter Moores biennial contemporary art exhibitions were held at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, 1971-86. In 1994 the Foundation enabled a permanent Transatlantic Slave Trade Gallery at the Liverpool Merseyside Maritime Museum. The Foundation began a variety of charitable support initiatives in Barbados in 1973 – these activities became a separately constituted organisation in 2011.
Er Barbados; are organised crime and dirty money now bywords for business interests in Barbados perhaps?
From 1970 to 2010 the Foundation supported the Opera Rara classical music label. It awarded scholarships to young British singers, including to Amanda Roocroft and Simon Keenlyside. The Foundation has supported the Opera in English project.
The Foundation provided funding for health projects in the UK and overseas, particularly in the field of HIV/AIDS. Previous posts eg. 'Apocalypse Now' have explained how many of the deaths in the late 1980s and 1990s of young gay men were actually of rent boys who had been coerced into sex work while in care in north Wales and then trafficked back down to London and Brighton. Some of the HIV/AIDS charidees were organised and supported by the very same people who had concealed what had been happening in north Wales. Everyone who worked with the dying AIDS patients at the time knew the histories of many of them; yet no-one uttered a word (see eg. post 'Holding The Country To Ransom – Part I').
The Foundation also supported a range of youth and education projects.
To mark its final phase, the Foundation's Swansong Project made donations to enable eight new productions in 2014/5 by British opera companies, including the British premiere of George Betjamin's 'Written on Skin' at the Royal Opera House, Terry Gilliam's production of Berlioz's 'Benvenuto Cellini' and three production of operas by Donizetti and the Welsh National Opera.
The charidee's founder, Sir Peter Moores (9 April 1932 – 23 March 2016) was a British businessman, art collector and philanthropist who was Chairman of the Liverpool-based Littlewoods Football Pools and retailing business in the UK, 1977-80. Sir Peter's father, Sir John Moores, was the founder of the Littlewoods company, although the family no longer owns it. In the Sunday Times Rich List 2006, the Moores' family wealth was estimated at £1,160m. Peter Moores was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford.
Sir John Moores (25 January 1896-25 September 1993) was born into a working-class family in Lancashire. He left elementary school at the age of 13 and became a messenger boy at the Manchester Post Office. Shortly afterwards John Moores was accepted on a course at the Post Office School of Telegraphy which enabled him to join the Commercial Cable Company as a junior operator. He served in the Navy during WWI from 1917 onwards, as a wireless operator.
After demobilisation from the Navy, John Moores carried on working for the Commercial Cable Company. In 1920 he was posted to Liverpool where he stayed for a few months but in November 1920, Moores was posted to County Kerry, Ireland. After complaining about the food that was served at the Waterville Cable Company Station, he was elected to run the Mess Committee. Moores established the Waterville Supply Company and reduced costs and raised the quality of meals. After noticing that there was no public library for miles, Moores set up a store that sold books and stationery. He bulk imported books and also sold golf balls as there was no sports shop or golf course. Between his telegraphist's salary and the profits he made from the Waterville Supply Company (helped by his status of Mess President which meant that he didn't have to pay for his own meals), Moores made £1,000 in 18 months.
In May 1922, Moores was back in England as the cable company reposted him again to Liverpool, where he remained for the rest of his life. John Moores was friends with Colin Askham and Bill Hughes as a result of them all working together as Post Office messenger boys in Manchester. Whilst looking for a new money-making idea, Moores heard about John Jervis Barnard, a Birmingham man who had latched onto the public's growing passion for two things: football and betting. Moores had been an avid football fan from when he was very young; he used to go and watch Manchester United with his father, a United supporter and season ticket holder, from the age of seven or eight.
Barnard had devised a 'football pool', where punters would bet on the outcome of football matches. The payouts to winners came from the 'pool' of money that was bet, less 10% to cover "management costs". It had not been particularly successful and Barnard was struggling to make a profit. Bill Hughes obtained one of Barnard's pools coupons and the three friends one night were discussing what Barnard would have to do to make money on it. They decided they could do it better.
Moores, Askham and Hughes could not let their employers, the Commercial Cable Company, know what they were doing, or they would be sacked. No outside employment was allowed. That ruled out calling it, for example, John Moores football pool or the Colin Askham football pool. The solution to that particular problem came from Colin. He had been orphaned as a baby and been brought up by an aunt whose surname was Askham, but he had been born Colin Henry Littlewood. And so, in 1923, the Littlewood Football Pool – as it was called originally – was started.
Each of the three partners invested £50 of their own money into the venture and with the help of a small, discreet and cheap printer they got to work. A small office in Church Street, Liverpool, was rented and the first 4,000 coupons were distributed outside Manchester United's Old Trafford ground before one Saturday match that winter.
It was not an instant success as just 35 coupons were returned. With bets totalling £4 7s 6d, the 10% deducted did not cover the three men's expenses. They decided to print 10,000 coupons and took them to Hull, where they were handed out before a big game. This time, only one coupon was returned. In the canteen of the Commercial Cable Company, the three partners held a crisis meeting. They continued pumping money into the fledgling business, but midway through the 1924-25 football season it was still losing money. There was no prospect of things improving. Bill Hughes suggested they cut their losses and forget the whole thing. Colin Askham agreed. They could see why John Jervis Barnard's idea of a football pool had failed in Birmingham. They expected Moores to concur, but instead he said: "I'll pay each of you the £200 you've invested, if you'll sell me your shares".
Moores admitted that he considered giving up on the business himself, but was encouraged by his wife, who told him "I would rather be married to a man who is haunted by failure rather than one haunted by regret". Moores kept faith and he paid Askham and Hughes £200 each. Moores was prosecuted under the Ready Money Football Betting Act. Following a court appearance, he was convicted. However, as his company never accepted cash, only postal orders that were cashed after the football results and the winning payout had been confirmed, his appeal was upheld. In 1928, Moores' younger brother Cecil devised a security system to prevent cheating. The breakthrough came when the owner of the coupon printing company suggested that he took his exact expenses out (plus a bit extra) before calculating the winning payout. Eventually the pools took off, becoming one of the best-known names in Britain.
In January 1932, Moores, by now a millionaire, started up Littlewoods Mail Order Store. This was followed on 6 July 1937 by the opening of the first Littlewoods department store in Blackpool. By the outbreak of WWII, there were 25 Littlewoods stores across the UK and over 50 by 1952.
The company then turned to war work; warehouses were equipped and staff were retrained so that the company could make parachutes. From 1940 they also made barrage balloons and in 1941 dinghies and munitions were added to the manufacturing portfolio. 1942 saw aircraft parts and bridge pieces being manufactured and from 1943 the firm built storm-boats that could cross water and land on beaches. They also became experts at 'boxing' – making compact transportable kits containing dismantled vehicles that could be reassembled at their destination overseas. The boxing division also made Pacific Packs containing rations for soldiers in the Far East. The football pools continued during the war years.
At the end of January 1947, Moores fell ill and contracted meningitis – he survived but it took him a while to recover. The businesses continued to expand and his two sons were given roles in the chain stores and at director level. The company branched out into manufacturing and testing of garments as a natural progression from the manufacturing work that had been carried out during World War II.
In 1960, John Moores gave up his Chairmanship of the pools business, and handed over the reins to his brother, Cecil Moores, (10 August 1902-29 July 1989), so that John Moores could become a Director of Everton Football Club. In June, John Moores became the Chairman. On 23 June it was revealed that during the 1959-1960 season, Moores had lent Everton £56,000 interest free so that they could buy players.
Moores remained as Everton Chairman until July 1965. In August 1968, Moores regained the Chairmanship and was Chairman until August 1973 when he resigned for the second and final time. He then became Vice-Chairman. Moores retired from the Everton Board of Directors on 8 July 1977.
Moores attended the 1984, 1985 and 1986 FA Cup finals, all of which featured Everton. The 1987 Football League Cup Final was sponsored by Littlewoods and Moores was the guest of honour. He presented the League Cup to the winning team, Arsenal.
John Moores was a keen baseball fan and created a league for Liverpool-based teams in 1933. He later enticed Everton players to the game. In 1938 Moores donated the John Moores trophy to the Great Britain national team for beating the United States Olympic team four games to one in a five-game series. Moores was posthumously inducted into the British Baseball Hall of Fame in October 2009.
In April 1970 Moores was made a Freeman of the City of Liverpool. In June 1980 he was knighted.
Moores retired as Chairman of Littlewoods in Oct 1977 and was succeeded by Peter. However, as profits fell from 49 million to 11 million, (Moores remained on the Board) Sir John resumed the Chairmanship on 10 October 1980. He resigned and retired for the second and final time on 25 March 1982. On 28 May 1982 Sir John Moores was made life President of the organisation and for the next four years he went to his office at Littlewoods three times a week.
Moores's family carried on running Littlewoods but John Clement succeeded Moores as Chairman. Moores had two operations straight after each other during the spring of 1986, but never fully recovered nor regained his health. In May 1988, Moores attended his final AGM. During that year he began to lose his speech. Moores was unable to talk at all in his final years, which were spent in a wheelchair and mostly confined to his home. He died in September 1993 at his home in Formby where he had lived since 1930.
The Sunday Times Rich List 1989 estimated John Moores's estate to be worth £1.7 billion. The Littlewoods businesses were sold to the Barclay Brothers, nine years after Moores's death, in October 2002.
Throughout the latter decades of Sir John Moores' life, Dafydd and the gang were running huge swathes of Liverpool, including Liverpool University, the NHS, the criminal justice system, the legal profession and the Courts. The gang had many Merseyside Councillors – of all political hues – in their pockets and they had a very cosy relationship with Liverpool Social Services, as well as with many people in Liverpool's entertainment/cultural scene. Abuse of children and young people in the various institutions on Merseyside, including those run by Liverpool Catholic Social Services, was rampant and there was an exchange of staff between those institutions/schools/homes in Liverpool and of those in north Wales/Cheshire. Diverse Liverpool politicians eg. Eric Heffer, David Hunt and Robert Kilroy Silk were chummy with those in Dafydd's network. Many more people simply would not say a word about the activities of Dafydd and the gang.
When Liverpool Poly became a university in 1992, it was named Liverpool John Moores University after Sir John Moores. I presume that Moores supported the institution financially, but I have not yet had time to research that.
The John Moores Painting Prize is co-ordinated by National Museums Liverpool. The first John Moores exhibition was held in 1957, six years after the Walker Art Gallery re-opened after World War II. It was intended as a one-off, but its success led to it becoming a biennial event. By the early 1960s, the exhibition was regarded as the UK's leading showcase for avant-garde painting. Winning works have included classic paintings by Jack Smith ('Creation and Crucifixion'), William Scott, Roger Hilton ('March 1963') and David Hockney ('Peter getting out of Nick's Pool').
Between 1933 and 1940 John Moores was a Conservative Councillor for Sefton Rural District and West Lancashire Rural District. In 1933 he stood as a National Government candidate for Clay Cross and at the 1935 General Election in Nuneaton but failed to be elected both times. Despite his views, Moores was good friends with the Labour MP Bessie Braddock and the two worked together on several projects involving Liverpool.
Bessie Braddock was the most dreadful old bat and was one of the Liverpool figures who showed not a jot of concern over the protests of people in Wales regarding the proposed flooding of Cwm Tryweryn in north Wales to create a reservoir to provide water for Liverpool. There was a Welsh speaking village called Capel Celyn in the Cwm and Capel Celyn was literally drowned; the villagers were forcibly kicked out and relocated. Dafydd was a medical student at Liverpool while the Welsh activism re Tryweryn was happening and he scored many brownie points among Welsh activists by making links with Republican activists in Ireland to learn at their knee; at the same time Dafydd the old hypocrite was cultivating his contacts with corrupt professional people in Liverpool with whom he would then enter into business a few years later (see post 'A Network Stretching Back Decades…').
A cause close to Dafydd's heart:
Causes very much closer to Dafydd's heart:
Dafydd's network of corrupt professionals on Merseyside didn't live in Liverpool 8, they were the affluent middle classes who lived in areas like Crosby and Formby on the Wirral and many of them were Tory voters. The good burghers of Crosby defected to the SDP in 1981 which was how Shirl bagged her seat there, the Shirl who had known all about Dafydd et al for years (see post 'We've Been Expecting You…).
The Baroness Williams of Crosby
John Moores Jr. (22 November 1928-22 May 2012) was the eldest son of Sir John Moores. John Moores Jr became Executive Director and Deputy Chairman of the family firm in 1968.
John Moores Jr was educated at Eton and later spent 2 years at Syracuse University in New York in the late 1940s studying a business course. John Moores Jr joined the family firm in 1946. He became a Director of Littlewoods in 1950 and was Chair of the Littlewoods equal opportunities strategy committee from the mid 1960s until the mid-1990s after wanting to promote equal opportunities in the firm following his return from the US after a two year academic stay.
John Moores Jr resigned as a Director at Littlewoods in October 1996 to spend time breeding Aberdeen Angus Cattle at his farm in Formby. He was a member of the Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society, of which he later became President.
John Moores Jr would surely have known Carlo's close friend, Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor aka the Duke of Westminster, who's main home was his family seat in Cheshire (see previous posts). The Duke was President of the City of Chester Conservative Association when Peter Morrison was the constituency MP and was the subject of open discussion in the Association (and the locality) re Morrison's child molesting. The Duke of Westminster's name pops up again and again among Dafydd's network. Boys from Bryn Estyn were taken to the Duke's estate for 'work experience' and refused to return without explaining why. The Duke took a great interest in agricultural/land management matters and was President of the Holstein UK & Ireland (formerly British Holstein Society), 1988; Life Governor, Royal Agricultural Society of England; Vice-President, Country Landowners' Association, 1999 until his death in 2016; Vice-President, Royal Smithfield Club, 2004 until his death.
John Moores Jr would almost certainly have known other influential farming/land owning families from north Wales/Cheshire who were involved with Dafydd et al eg. Beata Brookes's family, Lord Kenyon's family and Antoinette Sandbach's family. See previous posts.
John Moores Jr 'continued to promote equality in Liverpool just as he had done in the company'. He Chaired the Liverpool Charity and Voluntary Services until 1986, helped to establish the organisation 'Priority' which helps disadvantaged children and established 'South Liverpool Personnel' which helps the city's black community to find jobs.
Charidees and welfare societies based on Merseyside or with links to the area were choc full of those with links to Dafydd eg. Liverpool Catholic Social Services, Liverpool Personal Social Services, Nugent and the Eleanor Rathbone Trust. Some of these organisations employed people named as abusers of children in north Wales and some of them provided advice and support for abusers.
For his charidee work on Merseyside, John Moores Jr was awarded a CBE in 1993 and made a Freeman of the City of Liverpool.
By 1993, key witnesses to the crime in north Wales had had their lives and careers destroyed or had been found dead; the North Wales Police had declared in the previous year that their investigation had found 'no evidence' of a paedophile ring operating in north Wales/Cheshire.
John Moores Jr remained in a long association with Liverpool John Moores University. He was a Trustee and served as Pro-Chancellor and Chair of the Board of Governors, 1992-94. John Moores Jr was the University's Chancellor, 1994-99, being preceded by Henry Egerton Cotton. John Moores Jr was subsequently appointed Chancellor Emeritus and was an honorary fellow of the University.
John Hamilton, the former Leader of Liverpool City Council when Militant dominated the Council in the mid-1980s and when Degsy was Deputy Leader, served as a Governor of Liverpool Poly. Hamilton had links with many of Dafydd's network and was involved with education/children's services in Liverpool. John Hamilton nearly died when his house went up in flames very shortly before the publication of the Waterhouse Report. When it was published, Hamilton was in agony from third degree burns and will still have had the dressings on, which will have held him back if he had have been tempted to comment publicly on the Report. See previous posts. John Hamilton was a Bachelor who was not blessed with children.
John Moores Jr was Pro Chancellor and Chair of the Governors of Liverpool John Moores while the media was full of demands for an investigation into the abuse of children in north Wales and allegations that a VIP paedophile ring was in operation and was being concealed at the highest levels of Gov't. He was in post when the dead bodies of former kids in care and psych patients from north Wales were turning up everywhere and when the Jillings Investigation was announced and launched and when Gordon Anglesea began his libel case against 'Private Eye' and other media outlets when they named Anglesea as having abused kids in care in north Wales.
Moores was Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores when in 1994, the Head of Bryn Estyn, Matt Arnold, died from an 'unspecified blood disease' and when days later Arnold's friend and colleague Peter Howarth stood trial for a series of sexual assaults on boys at Bryn Estyn, for which Howarth was found guilty and imprisoned for 10 years. Moores was Chancellor when Peter Morrison and Dafydd's mate Bing Spear, a corrupt mandarin with responsibility for the Home Office Drugs Branch, were found dead four days apart from each other in July 1995.
Moores was Chancellor throughout the Jillings Investigation, the Waterhouse Inquiry and throughout the years that Dafydd et al were frantically beavering away behind the scenes trying to have me banged up in a secure hospital, which involved, toward the end of 1994, planting evidence to demonstrate that I had thrown a brick through the glass door of Dafydd's house in the middle of the night and then submitting details of my 'crime' to Liverpool High Court in Nov 1994, along with details of other practical jokes which another Hergest patient had played on Dafydd. See post 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels' and 'The Banality of Evil'.
John Moores Jr was Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University when Bart's failed to revive John Smith after his heart attack in May 1994 and when Miranda subsequently became Leader of the Labour Party, days after Arnold died and Howarth was jailed! Miranda was married to Cherie, a daughter of Liverpool – her home town is Crosby – and indeed a daughter of the Liverpudlian actor Tony Booth, who made his name by playing the Scouse Git in 'Til Death Us Do Part'.
Cherie succeeded John Moores Jr as Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University! She served from 1999-2006 and in July 2006 was awarded the honorary title of Emerita Chancellor. Liverpool John Moores also named their new Cherie Booth Building after her.
Here's Cherie doing her international wimmin's rights lawyer bit with Lubna Khalid Al Qasimi, who was previously the Minister of State for Tolerance, Minister of State for International Cooperation, and Minister of Economic and Planning of the United Arab Emirates:
Cherie did her first degree at the LSE, which educated many of those who were directly involved in abusing kids in care and vulnerable people in north Wales and those who concealed the abuse at higher levels, such as that other well-known Wimmin's Champ and Breaker of Glass Ceilings, Jane Hutt, the former Welsh Gov't Health and Social Services Minister .
Until 1988 Cherie's Head of Chambers was the crooked, violent, alcoholic barrister George Carman QC who knew about Dafydd and the gang's crimes and who was on stand by to act for dear old Jimmy Savile should anyone dare name Savile in the media. Jimmy dropped into Ashworth when he felt like it and also visited Bryn Estyn, where it is claimed by one boy that Jim watched him gang raped. Miranda himself was a pupil of George Carman.
Cherie's colleague Michael Beloff QC, who is also a good mate of Miranda and Cherie's and was one of their guests at Chequers, was the legal adviser to Municipal Mutual, the insurers of Clwyd County Council and the North Wales Police. It was Beloff who supplied the legal advice that ensured that no-one at all, part from the Council's lawyers and insurers, saw the Jillings Report when it was completed in 1996. No-one saw the Report until almost 20 years later when the last surviving copy – all other copies having been pulped in the 1990s – was discovered lurking somewhere in north Wales. Even then the Jillings Report had been so heavily redacted that it was almost meaningless. See post 'It's A Piece Of Cake…'. Michael's dad was Lord Max Beloff, who was mates with Ioan Bowen Rees, the Chief Executive of Gwynedd County Council when Dafydd's mistress Lucille Hughes was Director of Gwynedd Social Services and the paedophile gang were given free reign in the Council's children's homes. See post 'I Know Nuzzing…'
Cherie is not the only star who has had doings with Liverpool John Moores. Ieuan Wyn Jones, the Deputy FM of Wales, 2007-11, read law at Liverpool Poly. Ieuan comes from Denbigh as did his wife the Angel Eirian Llwyd and before Ieuan became an MP he worked as a solicitor in north Wales, with all the other solicitors who fitted up victims of Dafydd's gang. Ieuan and Erian colluded with Dafydd et al for years. See eg. post 'Tan yn Llyn'.
Fiona Irvine, who worked as an Angel in north Wales throughout the Paedophile Years, was given a Chair at Liverpool John Moores after leaving a trail of destruction and students having nervous breakdowns in her wake at Bangor University. See previous posts.
John Moores Jr died suddenly on 22 May 2012. By that time, Operation Pallial had begun and the Macur Review of the Waterhouse Inquiry was on the way. Dafydd's partner-in-crime Tony Francis killed himself in 2012 but I'm not sure in which month.
Cherie was succeeded as Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores by Brian May and then Lord Levenson.
John Moores Jr and Peter had two sisters, Betty Suenson-Taylor aka The Dowager Lady Grantchester and Janatha Stubbs.
Betty married Kenneth Bent Suenson-Taylor, the 2nd Baron Grantchester and their daughter Kirsten Suenson-Taylor is Chair of the Governors of Compton Verney! Originally an archaeologist, Kirsten went on to train as an archaeological conservator and worked for many years at the Museum of London. She has a particular interest in the conservation of wet archaeological organic materials, such as wood, leather and textiles. More recently Kirsten has worked with ICON (The Institute for Conservation) helping to promote conservation to Gov't and to the public as well as organising professional conferences and events. Kirsten has been a Trustee of Compton Verney Collection Settlement since 1999 and was a Trustee of the Peter Moores Foundation from 2004 until its close in 2014. Kirsten replaced Graham Greene as Chairman of the Governors of Compton Verney in 2012.
I can highly recommend that readers pay a visit to the Compton Verney website and read all about the Governors of Dafydd's pal's splendid art gallery. They are truly impressive:
Lloyd Grossman, who is famous for presenting 'Through the Keyhole' and flogging those Thai curry sauces; Will Hanrahan, the BBC reporter/presenter who 'retains an over-indulged passion for Everton Football Club'; Rita McLean, who was Director of Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery (BMAG), 2004-2012 and is a member of the National Trust's Midlands Region Advisory Board, Chairs Birmingham Civic Society's Heritage Committee and is an Editorial Board member for the West Midlands History publication; Janet Bell Smith, a graduate of Aston University, who worked as Head of HR (Assurance) of PricewaterhouseCoopers in the Midlands, who currently works for the NHS in a lay advisor capacity and who's previous non-executive roles have included the Birmingham Royal Ballet, Warwickshire Primary Care Trust and two local Hospices and who has been a magistrate for over 25 years including Chairing the Coventry and Warwickshire Magistrates Bench for the last three years; Howard Jones, an Associate Professor of Finance at the Saïd Business School, University of Oxford and a Fellow of Keble College, Oxford, who has previously worked at Deutsche Bank and at BNP Paribas, where he was worldwide head of equity capital markets; Professor Paul Smith, Director of Oxford University Museum of Natural History and formerly Head of the School of Geography, Earth & Environmental Sciences at the University of Birmingham and Director of the Lapworth Museum of Geology; Peter Wilson, who formerly worked with the Tate Gallery St Ives, Tate Gallery Liverpool, Tate Modern and Tate Britain Centenary Development; Lydia Thomas, a Cardiff University graduate and a former producer and presenter for the BBC, who has held public appointments with Ofcom, as Chair of the Advisory Committee on Older and Disabled People, with the Big Lottery Fund and has served on a number of advisory committees including the BMA Patient Liaison Group and the Wellcome Trust arts and science funding committee as well as being a long-term member of the Spinal Injuries Association; Sarah Carthew, who is the Director of Development at St Hugh's College, University of Oxford.
The Compton Verney Guv'nor who surely must wield most clout is Janatha Stubbs, Sir John Moores' daughter:
Janatha Stubbs was educated at Cheltenham Ladies College and Bedford College London where she studied History. Conrad, the Earl Russell, was an historian at Bedford College. Conrad was the son of Bertrand, a sexual predator who spent the last decades of his life living in north Wales and knew a great deal about Dafydd et al. See post 'So Who Was Angry About What?'
Janatha moved to Malta in 1969 where she remained after the death of her husband in 1998. Between 1982 and 1998, Janatha acted as consultant, Main Board or International Board Director for the Littlewoods Organisation. A member of the Malta Playing Fields Association, 1972-2007, Janatha was Chairman, 1980-2000.
From 1989 Janatha has been President and Founder of Ir-Razzett Tal-Hbiberija, a centre for people with disabilities. She is also a Founder Member and President of Soroptimist International Malta. Janatha was Chairman of Compton Verney House Trust, 1993-2005.
Again and again, the police have located paedophiles with links to Dafydd et al in Malta and some of them have now been extradited. Lady Juliet Bingley, who concealed the crimes of Dafydd and the gang from the 1970s onward while leading MIND and then passed that baton onto her son William in his capacity as Legal Director for MIND and then Chief Exec of the Mental Health Act Commission, lived in Malta when her husband Sir Alec Bingley was stationed there in his capacity as Commander of the Mediterranean Fleet. Lady Juliet involved herself in Good Works in Malta and established medical and other welfare services. She was a personal friend of the PM of Malta, Dom Mintoff and maintained that friendship after the Bingleys left Malta. I was told the other day that Malta is now a centre for organised crime.
Lucille Hughes was a leading light in Soroptimist International in north Wales/Chester. See previous posts.
Janatha was awarded the Malta Order of Merit for charitable works in 1993 and the MBE in 2003 for services to the disabled in Malta.
Here's Janatha, should anyone spot her and wish to carry out a citizen's arrest:
Janatha's sister Betty – Kirsten's mum and the daughter of Sir John Moores – is the matriarch of the dynasty. Betty was Director of Littlewoods, 1977-97 and is credited with steering the company back on to an even keel after a turbulent late 1980s and early 1990s. The family started to sell off stores in 1998 and the pools business in 2000; those proceeds and past dividends are worth £445m. Another windfall came in 2002 when the mail order business was sold to the Barclay Brothers for £750m.
In 1971 Betty enrolled on a business course and was later invited to join the Littlewoods Board. She was educated at Newnham College, Cambridge. In 1986 it was reported in 'The Times' that Betty aka Lady Grantchester provided 'considerable financial support' for the Lucy Cavendish College, Cambridge, which gives undergraduate places for mature women students.
The President of Lucy Cavendish College, 1985-94, was Dame Anne Warburton, a diplomat who was the first female British Ambassador. She served as British Ambassador to Denmark, 1976-83, and British Permanent Representative to the UN in Geneva, 1983-85. Anne Warburton was educated at Somerville College, Oxford – as were Thatch and Shirl. She worked at the London office of the Economic Co-operation Administration, 1949-52; at the NATO Secretariat, then located in Paris, 1952-54; and for Lazard Brothers in London, 1955-57. In 1958 Warburton joined the Diplomatic Service and served with the UN in New York, 1959-62. She served at the British Embassy at Bonn, 1962-65, then in the newly created Diplomatic Service Administration Office in London, 1965-67. Warburton moved back to the FCO, 1968-70 and was then posted as Counsellor to the UK's Geneva Mission to the UN. She then spent a further period at the FCO as Head of the Guidance and Information Policy Dept, 1975-76, before her posting to Denmark. After leaving Denmark, Warburton was Ambassador and UK Permanent Representative to the UN and other international organisations in Geneva, 1983–85. She was Deputy Leader of the UK delegation to the third UN World Conference on Women at Nairobi in July 1985, which closed the UN Decade for Wimmin.
Warburton was a member of the Equal Opportunities Commission, 1986–88, which housed many of Dafydd's protectors, including Geoffrey Howe's wife, Elspeth, who along with Geoffrey, was a close friend of Ronnie Waterhouse (see previous posts). Warburton was a member of the Committee on Standards in Public Life, 1994–97 and of the Council of the University of East Anglia. Warburton led a European Community investigative mission into the treatment of Muslim women in the former Yugoslavia, which reported in January 1993. She died on 4 June 2015.
The story of Dame Anne's ground-breaking career is a familiar one; that of a privileged woman who was closely associated with abusive people, so she flew the flag for Wimmin's Rights in High Places.
The story re the Presidents of Lucy Cavendish College continued in the same vein after Dame Anne. Pauline Perry, Baroness Perry of Southwark (née Welch; born 15 October 1931) 'an educator, educationist, academic and activist' was President of Lucy Cavendish, 1994-2001. Perry is a Tory politician and sat in the Lords. She joined the DES as part of HM Inspectorate in 1970 and in 1981 she became HM Chief Inspector of Schools. Pauline obviously missed quite a few things while she worked for the DES, including the trafficking of disadvantaged kids. In 1986 Perry became Vice-Chancellor of South Bank Polytechnic and serving during its transition to a university, became the first woman in the history of the world to run a British university. It wasn't anything to boast about, the institution was very troubled and was linked to a number of who were involved in the North Wales Child Abuse Scandal.
Pauline: There isn't much point in being the first woman to do something if what you do is seriously crap and causes much harm.
The Baroness Thatcher
Perry was educated at Girton College, Cambridge and became a teacher and philosophy lecturer, working in England, Canada and the USA.
Pauline Perry was Pro-Chancellor of the University of Surrey, which employed Dafydd's protector Professor Vincent Marks, who was linked to people in the Cancer Research Campaign who were perpetrating large scale research fraud. See previous posts. The University of Surrey at the time boasted of hosting Professor Daphne Jackson, a rare specimen, a female Professor of Engineering. What was less rare about Daphne and the Wimmin with whom she networked in the cause of the battle against those with testicles, was her penchant for crapping on other women and at least in my case, stealing their work and using it to gain funding and promotion for themselves. See previous posts.
In 1986, Pauline Perry collaborated with John Cassels and James Prior to create the Council for Industry and Higher Education (CIHE) which would become the National Centre for Universities and Business in 2013. James Prior was a member of Thatch's Cabinet who concealed serious crime on the part of Dafydd's network and Prior's son Lord David Prior has also concealed some serious shite in healthcare. See previous posts.
Perry has also been active in the Southwark Cathedral and the Church of England, as well as the City of London. She was appointed Chair of the review group examining the operation of the Crown Appointment Commission, the body which nominates Diocesan Bishops. The Perry Report "Working With The Spirit", was published in May 2001 and led to more transparent selection procedures for the appointment of Anglican Bishops. But not to screening out those who had concealed organised abuse.
Among other things, Perry was/is:
Member of the Nuffield Committee on Bioethics (2003-05) and Chaired the Working Party on the Ethics of Research Involving Animals.
Chair, Commission on Secondary Reorganisation for the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham,
Chair, Commission on Academies and Free Schools in the London Borough of Wandsworth.
Co-chair of The Conservatives Public Services Commission which reported in 2007.
Chair of the Governing Body of Kaplan College and Law School, in 2013.
Perry bagged her peerage in 1991, which was the year of the Great Cover-Up of organised abuse in er Wandsworth and Southwark; Peter Morrison landed his knighthood in Feb 1991. She was appointed a Conservative Party Whip in the Lords in January 2011. She retired from the Lords on 26 May 2016.
Perry was/is also a member of:
Sub-Committee I (Higher Education in STEM subjects) Lords 2011-12
Science and Technology Committee (L) Lords 2009-14
Select Committee on Science and Technology Sub-Committee 2 Lords 2004-09
Human Rights (Joint Committee) Lords 2001-03
She has also been/is:
President, Council for Independent Education (CIFE)
President, Foundation for Higher Education
President, Westminster & City Branch of Chartered Management Institute
Chair of City and Guilds Quality and Standards Committee
Governor of Gresham's School, Holt
Chair of Governors and Trustee of Roehampton Institute, University of Surrey
Pro-Chancellor and Member of Council, University of Surrey
Trustee, Bacon's City Technology College
Trustee, Cambridge University Foundation
Trustee, Daphne Jackson Memorial Trust
Companion of the Institute of Management
Political Editorial Advisor at i-MAGAZINE
Member of Flooved advisory board
Member of the Institute of Directors
Member of the International Women's Forum
Dame Veronica Sutherland, succeeded Lady Pauline as President of Lucy Cavendish College, 2001-08.
Dame Veronica Evelyn Sutherland, (née Beckett; born 25 April 1939) is a former British diplomat who served in government from 1965 until 1999, including a stint as Ambassador to the Republic of Ireland, 1995-99.
Born to Lt Col Maurice Beckett and Constance Cavenagh-Mainwaring, Sutherland was appointed Commonwealth Deputy Secretary-General with responsibility for economic and social affairs. She was the first woman to hold this post and to serve the Commonwealth at such a high rank. She took up her Commonwealth post in February 1999, succeeding Sir Humphrey Maud who was retiring.
Not so much 'We Are Wimmin, We Are Strong' as 'We are Wimmin, We Are Posh'.
Janet Margaret Todd (born 10 September 1942) followed Dame Veronica as President of Lucy Cavendish College, 2008-15. Janet Todd is an academic and author. She was educated at Cambridge University and the University of Florida. She has worked in universities in Ghana, Puerto Rico, North America, India (New Delhi) and England. She was appointed Professor of English Literature at Glasgow University in 2000, and was then at Aberdeen University, 2004-2008. Janet Todd is now a full-time novelist and researcher living in Cambridge.
Jackie Ashley followed Janet Todd as President. Jackie is if anything even more of a sell-out than her predecessors. Jackie is a former lobby/political correspondent who has spent her entire career toadying to the truly vomit-inducing. Jackie knows all about the Westminster Paedophile Ring, as well as Dafydd et al's role in it, as does her husband the journo and broadcaster Andrew Marr. Jackie's dad was Jack Ashley, the Labour MP for Stoke-on-Trent South, 1966-92. Jack's constituency hosted a paedophile/trafficking ring with links to Dafydd's gang in north Wales and as in north Wales, a knock-on effect was a lethal, corrupted NHS. Jack didn't say a word. See previous posts for matters Ashley, Marr, Jackie's dad Jack and organised abuse in Staffordshire.
The current President of Lucy Cavendish College who succeeded Jackie Ashley this year is Professor Madeleine Julia Atkins, the a former VC of Coventry University, who was/is also Chief Executive of HEFCE. Atkins was born 1952 and took a degree in Law and History at Cambridge. After a PhD at the University of Nottingham, Atkins was a school teacher before joining Newcastle University, where she rose to become PVC. Newcastle University was run by Dafydd's pal the Bastard of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Lord John Walton. Walton didn't just collude with serious crime to do Dafydd a favour – although Walton would no doubt have been more than happy to do so for that reason alone – but because Newcastle University was instrumental in concealing the abuse ring in the north east which had longstanding links to Dafydd's gang in north Wales and supplied Dafydd et al with children and abusive staff. See previous posts.
Atkins was VC of Coventry University, 2004-13. Coventry of course is an area which was covered by the trafficking ring of the West Midlands, of which Bluglass was a leading light. Bluglass's partner-in-crime Colin Berry, who assisted Bluglass in his non-investigation of my complaint about Dafydd et al in 1989 was a Top Doctor from Coventry.
As Chief Executive of HEFCE, in 2015, Atkins was paid a salary of between £230,000 and £234,999. In June 2018, it was revealed by the UCU that she received a pay package worth £554,648 in 2017, which represents a 96% increase on the £282,354 paid to her in 2016-17.
The honorary fellows of Lucy Cavendish are of the same cadre as the Presidents. They include Betty, Lady Grantchester herself, who is bankrolling the whole scam; Baroness Jean Trumpington aka Trumpers, Thatcher's friend and who as Health Minister appointed Jimmy Savile to the senior management of Broadmoor Hospital; Dame Stella Rimington, who as Head of MI5 failed to stop the organised trafficking of kids and vulnerable people through the welfare services of the UK; and the novelist P.D. James who abandoned her husband to the Top Doctors and an asylum, found out what they were all up to and ruthlessly used it to further herself. See previous posts for further info on all these charming folk.
Other honorary fellows of Lucy Cavendish include Queen Margrethe of Denmak and Dame Judi Dench. Dame Judi is Patron of the St James's Singers, the elite choir in Warwickshire of which Bluglass and his wife are both leading lights.
Traffickers in distress, traffickers in distress, get me the BMA and quickly…
In 1994 Betty and her Janatha were given a 40% stake of Everton Football Club by their brother Peter who had inherited the shares from their father Sir John. Betty sold her stake in the club to Peter Johnson in 1997, the same year that she retired from the Board of Littlewoods.
In 1997 the Waterhouse Inquiry began.
Betty Suenson-Taylor regularly features in the media as one of the wealthiest individuals in the UK. The summary below highlights how her wealth has been reported over time:
Year Estimated Wealth Ranking Source
1992 £170 million 7th Wealthiest woman in Britain The Daily Mail
1997 £1,000 million 2nd Wealthiest woman in Britain Press Association
1999 £1,500 million 1st Wealthiest woman in the United Kingdom The Independent
2000 £1,300 million The Journal

2006 £1,160 million 42nd Wealthiest person in the United Kingdom The Sunday Times
2007 £1,200 million 53rd Wealthiest person in the United Kingdom The Sunday Times
Betty has been a Trustee of the Family Education Trust since 2004 and involved in the European Atlantic Group.
Betty's husband, Kenneth – Kirsten's dad – was the son of the 1st Baron Grantchester, who was the banker, neoliberal activist and Liberal politician Alfred Jesse Suenson-Taylor (1893-1976). The peerage was created in 1953 for Alfred.
Alfred Jesse Suenson-Taylor, 1st Baron Grantchester was the son of Alfred George Taylor of Surrey. Lord Alfred Grantchester was educated at Epsom College and King's College Cambridge and served at Gallipoli and in France during WWI. Alfred stood for Parliament as a Liberal Party candidate four times but was unsuccessful on each occasion.
In 1947 Suenson-Taylor played a significant role in gaining Bank of England support for the emergent Mont Pelerin Society.
The Mont Pelerin Society was one of the original neoliberal 'think tanks' whose ideas later influenced Thatch, although she was too dim to understand them, confusing the ideology with the efficient management of a grocer's shop. See previous posts.
Lord Alfred Grantchester was later President of the London Liberal Party. Lord Grantchester served as Chairman of the London and Manchester Assurance Company, 1953-61, as Joint Honorary Treasurer of the Liberal Party Organisation, 1953-62 and as President of the Society for Individual Freedom. He also initiated the unofficial meetings of the EFTA parliamentarians at Strasbourg and was a Delegate to the Assemblies of the Council of Europe and the Western European Union.
Lord Grantchester married Mara Henrietta (Mamie), daughter of Albert Suenson of Copenhagen in Denmark, in 1920 and assumed the surname of Suenson in addition to that of Taylor. Alfred, Lord Grantchester, died in July 1976 and was succeeded by his son Kenneth. Lady Grantchester died the same year.
The 1st Baron Grantchester's younger brother Sir Charles Stuart Taylor (10 April 1910-29 March 1989) was a businessman and the Tory MP for Eastbourne, 1935-74. Charles Taylor was educated at Epsom College and Trinity College, Cambridge.
Taylor fought in WWII in the Royal Artillery. He was MD of Cow and Gate and later Unigate. In 1946 Taylor became President of Grosvenor House (Park Lane) Ltd, Residential Hotels Association. He became Deputy Lieutenant of Sussex in 1948 and was knighted in 1954. In 1958 Taylor became Honorary Colonel in the 3rd (Sussex Battalion) Mobile Defence Corps. He was invested as a Serving Brother, Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem.
Taylor held the seat until he was de-selected by his local Party prior to the Feb 1974 General Election. Taylor married actress Constance Shotter. They lived at Eastbourne. Eastbourne was of course on the patch of the Sussex paedophile ring, of which John Allen and Dafydd's gang were an essential part. Eastbourne was also the site of the shenanigans featuring the murdering Top Doctor John Bodkin Adams, who was extracted from an even deeper slurry pit by friends in high places, including Harriet Harman's dad, Top Doctor John Harman. See previous posts.
Charles Taylor was succeeded as Tory MP for Eastbourne by Ian Gow. Ian Gow was Thatcher's big mate who was blown up in July 1990. Gow was one of those who's murder was attributed to Irish Republican activity but it is suggested by some to have been linked to his involvement/concealing of paedophilia, may not have been at the hands of Irish Republicans and may have even involved the assistance of the British security services themselves.
Betty's son, Kirsten's brother, is Christopher John Suenson-Taylor, 3rd Baron Grantchester, known as John Grantchester.
John Grantchester was educated at Winchester College and at the LSE. Lord Grantchester has two sons, including his heir apparent, Jesse David Suenson-Taylor and two daughters. Lord Grantchester is a former Director of Littlewoods. The Sunday Times 2015 rich list stated that his net worth was £1,200m.
Lord Grantchester was a Director of Everton, leaving the Everton Board in Dec 2000. As of December 2015, he owned 8.5% of the club. Lord Grantchester is a Trustee of the Foundation for Sport and the Arts. He is also a Trustee of the David France Collection, the world's largest club specific football memorabilia collection.
Lord Grantchester runs a dairy farm near in Cheshire. He is Chairman of the South West Cheshire Dairy Association, a Council Member of both the Cheshire Agricultural Society and of the Royal Agricultural Society. Lord Grantchester was the Chairman of one of the UK's largest milk and cheese businesses, Dairy Farmers of Britain, accounting for 10% of the UK milk market, when it entered receivership in June 2009.
We're back to the Duke of Westminster and his mates again…
John Grantchester succeeded to his father's title in 1995. . He replaced the deceased Lord Milner of Leeds as one of the 92 hereditary peers remaining in the Lords under the House of Lords Act 1999, Miranda's attempt at not reforming the Lords sufficiently to upset the hereditary peers.
Lord Grantchester sits in the Lords as a Labour peer.
There's still another member of this family that readers need to meet. That is David Moores, the son of Cecil Moores, ie. David, Sir John Moores's nephew. David Richard Moores (born 15 March 1946) was the Chairman of Liverpool F.C., 1991–2007; he is now their honorary life President.
David Moores became Chairman on 18 September 1991. He owned 17,850 shares in Liverpool F.C. which represented 51% of the club. His uncle, Sir John Moores, was Chairman of Everton.
The Moores family owned their stake in Liverpool F.C. for over 50 years. They increasingly sought external investment to help Liverpool develop a new ground, and ended up selling it in 2007, to American investors Tom Hicks and George Gillett, although the deal turned sour soon after. In 2010, David Moores said that "significant shareholders like Granada and Steve Morgan were insistent the board of Liverpool F.C. should accept the Gillett and Hicks offer and left me in no doubt about my legal duty to accept the offer". In a letter to 'The Times' in May 2010, Moores admitted that he "hugely regrets" selling Liverpool to the American duo. Moores called on Gillett and Hicks to step aside and find a suitable buyer for the club. Moores wrote: "I call upon them now to stand back, accept their limitations as joint owners, acknowledge their role in the club's current demise, and stand aside, with dignity".
Under the Chairmanship of David Moores, Liverpool had a turbulent period under manager Graeme Souness, 1991-94. When Moores sacked Souness in January 1994, it was the first time a Liverpool manager had been sacked since 1956. Under David Moores, Liverpool went through their most barren spell for three decades. Though they won the most club competitions over the sixteen years, this excluded the most prized English Premiership. As a result, Manchester United have now overtaken their championship total haul, and are close to their total haul for all major trophies, something which was unimaginable when Moores' tenure started. In 2005, Liverpool won a fifth UEFA Champions League after defeating A.C. Milan in the final.
After the departure of David Moores, Kenny Dalglish returned to the manager's position amid rumours that he had wanted to return in the mid-1990s, but was frustrated by the hesitancy and inconsistency of the decision-makers at Liverpool. Dalglish returned as manager in January 2011 but left the club at the end of the 2011-12 season.
Moores's first wife Kathy Anders was a beauty queen and model, who became Miss England in 1974. She featured in TV advertisements for the Littlewoods Group and married Moores in February 1976. After just 18 months of marriage, Anders died in a car crash in September 1977, aged 26, when Moores' Jaguar car overturned into a ditch on a quiet country road in Lancashire. Moores went to hospital with serious head injuries. It was the second family tragedy that year for the Moores family. Five months earlier in April 1977, Moores's elder brother Nigel died in a car crash in the South of France.
It's incredible how many people in the wider network of Dafydd et al meet sticky ends. I have observed before that being Of Dafydd et al is as dangerous as being one of those of us who have Spilt Their Pints.
Moores is currently married to wife Marjorie. Betty remains the family head which was ranked joint 32nd in the 2009 Sunday Times Rich List with assets worth £1.2 bn.

My post 'Include Me Out' detailed some facts and figures relating to the inmates of Risley Remand Centre from 1968 onward and other related information which I suggest made it so obvious that so many victims of Dafydd and the paedophiles were ending up there via unlawful processes that it was a nonsense for people to have claimed that they 'didn't know' that a major sex trafficking ring was operating in north Wales through the mental health services and the children's homes. I named some of the politicians, lawyers, Prison Service staff and others who must have known what was happening.
In this post I will provide details of a few on the ground in north Wales who not only knew but played key roles in the supply chain.
My post 'That's Entertainment' described how in the 1980s, victims of Dafydd et al were given summer jobs at Penrhyn Castle, under the supervision of Wing Commander I.H. Panton. Wing Commander Panton was remembered fondly by Dafydd's targets, but those dispossessed people had not clicked that that the Wing Commander knew what had happened to them but did nothing to help them. The Wing Commander regularly heard first hand accounts of beatings and suicides/murders in Risley Remand Centre, he knew that some of his employees had been abused sexually by those paid to care for them and that some of them in turn were behaving in a highly sexualised way themselves. The Wing Commander had a great deal of knowledge about Dafydd's activities and the abuses at the North Wales Hospital Denbigh. Wing Commander Panton was so keen to help the victims of Dafydd and the paedophile gang that he employed them in casual low paid jobs every summer season. He joined in the work parties, he chatted to them and he knew exactly who remembered what and who was naming who.
Wing Commander Panton left north Wales years ago. He told his charges at Penrhyn Castle that he was moving to the west country to 'write children's books', although a google search does not reveal that he either moved to the west country or wrote children's books.
Penrhyn Castle was given to the National Trust in 1951, so it had been in their hands for decades by the time that Wing Commander Panton opened his arms to the victims of Dafydd et al.
I received an e mail from someone the other day telling me that Lucille Hughes was working for the National Trust at Penrhyn Castle. Lucille 'retired' from Gwynedd County Council immediately that the Waterhouse Report was published. Even Ronnie Waterhouse had to admit that Lucille, whilst she was Director of Gwynedd Social Services, knew that a paedophile gang was operating in the children's homes that she was responsible for but she had not acted. My correspondent – like so many others – expressed astonishment that Lucille continues with her charity work at CAIS, with the CAB, with the Soroptomists and that her grubby fingers are also in the National Trust pie (or should that be PIE?) at Penrhyn Castle.
I know of another victim of Dafydd and the paedophiles who volunteered at Plas Newydd. Like those working at Penrhyn Castle – who in the 1980s weren't volunteers but were employed on Thatcher's 'job creation' schemes so were paid a benefit level wage – she was friendly and chatty and anyone spending any length of time with her could not have failed to notice that she was not being cared for in the way that the 'services' should have caring for her, even if they did not believe her stories of frankly abusive experiences (some at least of which I knew to be true).
The President of the National Trust is Prince Charles. One of the many people to whom Alison Taylor wrote in the 1980s regarding her concerns that there was widespread, serious abuse of children in care happening in north Wales was Prince Charles. I am told that 'his office' replied, stating that he really couldn't get involved in this matter.
The Duke of Westminster, Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor – Prince Charles's friend and the father of the Princess of Wales's goddaughter and also the father of one of Prince George's godparents – was President of the City of Chester Conservative Association whilst Sir Peter Morrison was the constituency MP. Morrison was abusing children in care in north Wales as well as at other locations. Morrison's conduct was openly gossiped about by constituents and other politicians. Boys from Bryn Estyn were taken to Grosvenor's estate for 'work opportunities' and would refuse to return there but didn't explain why. Gerald Grosvenor was the lucky man who purchased the former St George's Hospital building at Hyde Park Corner for £6ooo from the Tory Gov't – the building was worth millions (see post 'The White Heat Of This Revolution'). Staff at George's Hospital Medical School were concealing the criminality of Dafydd et al in north Wales, as well as a linked paedophile gang in south London, of which their Professor of Paediatrics Oliver Brooke was a member. Staff at St George's had personal links to Dafydd and Lucille.
As for Plas Newydd, that is the seat of the Marquesses of Anglesey and is also in the hands of the National Trust. The family have strong links to the Tory Party and the Anglesey Conservative Association. The Anglesey Conservative Association were very fond of Anne Widdecombe, begged her to be their Tory candidate and retained links with her although she jumped ship and tried her luck with another constituency. Before Doris Karloff became an MP, she worked as a senior administrator for the University of London. Doris was responsible for driving through the highly unpopular merger of Guy's and Tommy's. Despite being given such an onerous responsibility, Doris was allowed substantial time off work – whilst still being paid – and was given the use of a member of London University admin staff to help her campaign for election. London University also covertly supported Doris in her political project with Lady Olga Maitland, 'Women and Families for Defence' which the Tory Gov't mounted in 1983 as a response to the growing support for CND. Details of all this can be read in my post 'Doris Karloff – Honest About Her Expenses But Not Much Else'.
The University of London not only used their resources to covertly support a Tory Party pressure group, but they were helping Doris achieve her political ambitions it would seem before Thatcher's election victory in 1979. The VCs of London University who presided over all this were Lords Noel Annan and Randolph Quirk.
Noel Annan had a background in the security services – he had the distinction of joining Churchill in the bunker during WWII – and furthermore had been a member of the Cambridge Apostles when he was at university, along with Guy Burgess and Michael Straight, who were members of the Cambridge spy ring. Annan Chaired the Annan Committee – the Royal Commission on Broadcasting – which numbered a few other paedophiles' friends as members. For more details on Noel Annan and the Annan Committee, see post 'Radical Leicester And Some Other Free Radicals'.
Randolph Quirk was a 'supporter of the Labour Party' – despite leading an institution which secretly allowed Anne Widdecombe to do Thatcher's Gov't a favour in mounting opposition to CND – who sat as a cross-bencher when he received a peerage. Quirk was a linguist who worked with David Crystal. David Crystal is a linguist who spent his career at UCL, but has an honorary Chair at Bangor University. Crystal grew up in Holyhead and Liverpool and now lives in Holyhead once more.
In the 1980s there was a problem in the Dept of Linguistics in UCNW (Bangor University). It went under the name of Professor Andrew Radford. Radford was appointed in 1980 and when I arrived at UCNW in 1981, a lot of people were already complaining bitterly about Radford. He was, essentially, a wally. Radford's notions of getting down with the kids were rather patronising to students with a brain, but the more gullible students thought that he was great. He had disco lights and pictures of Debbie Harry in his office and joined students on pub crawls and crashed their parties. So far so lame. But Radford was also shagging students on a grand scale. Better than that, after a few years, other staff noticed a strong correlation between the linguistics students who were getting Firsts and the students who had shagged Radford. Neither was the correlation based on speculation – I know one now retired lecturer from Bangor who said that Radford was so ruthlessly exploitative that he boasted of his encounters and supplied details to his colleagues. Radford did eventually depart from UCNW – under a huge cloud – but not until 1989, when he returned to his old home of the University of Essex.
I knew a linguistics student who didn't shag Radford, but who was very, very distressed by what he was doing. I don't know whether he had tried it on with her, or whether she just found his activities too unsavoury to cope with, but towards the end of her first year she had a breakdown. She asked for help at the Student Health Centre and was referred to Gwynne the lobotomist. Gwynne told her that she had a personality disorder and that he 'could do nothing for her'. Within two days she attempted suicide. She ended up in the North Wales Hospital. No, she didn't get Dafydd – for once he was kept well out of the way because this young woman's mum was a nurse from Shrewsbury who hit the roof when she found out what had gone on and made a formal complaint about Gwynne.
After the disaster with Gwynne, this student was referred to a nice young doctor who had just arrived in north Wales – Tony Francis. Francis did what he did in so many other cases – he did an excellent impersonation of a caring competent man, apologised to the student and her mum and assured them that Gwynne had been dealt with and that no other student would ever have this experience. Gwynne remained in the Student Health Centre and some eighteen months later I encountered him… As did at least two students who attempted suicide within days of meeting him.
When the student of Radford's returned to UNCW, she told everyone that she would not return to the Linguistics Dept. Radford wrote to Tony Francis and told him that there was no reason why she should not continue on the linguistics course. The student's mum told Francis that she was not going near Andrew Radford again. Francis was the hero of the hour – or so it seemed – and told the student and her mother that he had sorted it with the university authorities for the student to transfer to a joint honours in Italian and Latin. Which is what happened.
The young woman then found it very difficult to access services at the Student Health Centre. Dr D.G.E. Wood told a third party that she was 'wet' and Francis told a third party that she was 'weak'. Francis's assessment of the fragility of this student was interesting in the light of his decision a few weeks later to discharge her from his clinic with no aftercare, in the wake of her telling him and a number of other people that she was feeling suicidal.
I knew this student well and we remained in contact after graduation. She did graduate despite being refused healthcare and she then went to Manchester to do an MA. Her problems continued and she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. She made a number of serious suicide attempts and after each one returned to the family home where she was cared for by her mum and her sisters, although she continued to live in Manchester.
I met up with her last in about 2000. She had recently made a suicide attempt so serious that it was very nearly successful. She had been prescribed huge quantities of anti-depressants which are lethal in overdose, after telling her Top Doctor that she felt suicidal. She took an overdose, was in a coma for three days and ended up with kidney damage. Her mum accompanied her to the psychiatrist after she recovered and expressed her concerns that if her daughter was prescribed the same toxic-in-overdose medication again, the next suicide attempt would work. The former UCNW student was prescribed the same medication again.
She was taking that medication when I met up with her. She told me that the mental health services in Manchester were terrible, that she was simply being given repeat prescriptions with appointments at lengthy intervals and that it was nearly impossible to see a Top Doctor anyway. She had recently been to Australia to visit her sister who had emigrated there and had been given a massive quantity of another 'medication' to 'calm her down' for the flight. She collapsed at an airport in the Far East whilst changing planes and other passengers assisted her. The Top Doctor had prescribed her a massive dose of haloperidol just before the flight, so it was entirely predictable that she would collapse on her way over to Australia.
That was the last time that I saw my former college mate. She committed suicide a few years ago.
I don't think that she or her mum knew that the lethal bastards who were neglecting her so badly in Manchester were the former colleagues of Tony Francis, whom he had worked with immediately prior to his move to north Wales (see posts 'A Stalker's Network' and 'Ian Brockington's Mischief'). They had been 'trained' by Dafydd's old mate Dr Bob Hobson and were facilitating and concealing the crimes of Dafydd et al in north Wales (see post 'The Mentor').
So that was another witness to the clinical skills of Gwynne dealt with.
Professor David Crystal's mate Randolph Quirk was succeeded as VC of London University by Lord Brian Flowers, who concealed as much – if not even more – crap than Annan and Quirk did. Flowers came from Swansea and was the man who presided over wrongdoing and crime at Imperial College before he was let loose on the University of London as a whole (see post 'The White Heat Of This Revolution'). There was an elderly academic who died a few years ago who was involved with Bangor University – particularly fundraising – who when he was younger had been a Professor and I think a senior manager at Imperial College. He seemed such a lovely old boy, but he was probably a paedophiles' friend, the urge to toady to serious criminals just seems to be far too much for a lot of people to resist.
Professor David Crystal has advised on the original pronunciation of a number of Shakespeare productions, including 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. Which of course featured a character called Bottom. In his essay 'Preposterous Pleasures: Queer Theories and A Midsummer Night's Dream,' Douglas E. Green explores possible interpretations of alternative sexuality that he finds within the text of the play, in juxtaposition to the proscribed social mores of the culture at the time the play was written. He writes that his essay 'does not (seek to) rewrite A Midsummer Night's Dream as a gay play but rather explores some of its 'homoerotic significations' … moments of 'queer' disruption and eruption in this Shakespearean comedy.'
Get your head around that Dafydd.
'Titania adoring the Ass-headed Bottom'. Oil on canvas by Henry Fuseli, c. 1790.
David Crystal was influential in a campaign which resulted in the creation of the Ucheldre Centre at Holyhead. I don't know who is on the governing body of the Ucheldre Centre – although I could have a good guess – but it describes itself as a 'community arts venue' (the premier one no less) in north Wales. In reality, the Ucheldre Centre is a magnet for the Mafia of Drips and provides a venue for things such as International Wimmin's Day celebrations and Service Users Empowerment activities. It has hosted exhibitions of art work by Michael Mansfield's mate Kyffin Williams and has won a Prince of Wales Award. The Ucheldre Centre was formerly a convent and I suspect that it saw rather more meaningful action when the Sisters occupied the building, because some of them did some quite exciting things, as a result of the convent belonging to a French Order with links to the southern hemisphere. As opposed to links with Jane Hutt or MIND.
To return to the National Trust, who employed so many of those victims of Dafydd and Gwynne who didn't get as far as UCNW. Whilst Wing Commander Panton was keeping a lid on it all down at Penrhyn Castle, the DG of the NT was Sir Jack Boles.
Sir Jack Boles was DG of the NT, 1975-83. So it will have been Jack who established the arrangement for Dafydd's victims to arrive en masse at Penrhyn Castle every summer. It will really have been Jack as well – he was a very hands-on (so to speak) DG, he visited the regions regularly and he was also responsible for a big PR offensive for the NT. It was while Sir Jack was DG that the NT acquired a number of very valuable properties, including Erddig, the country house near Wrexham.
Sir Jack's father had been in the Royal Navy until the early 1940s when for some unspecified reason he 'was allowed to retire'. Sir Jack's dad was in the Royal Navy at the same time as Lord Mountbatten, Admiral Sir Alec Bingley and others who knew a lot about the organised abuse of children and other naughtiness in high places (see post 'The Defence Of The Realm').
Sir Jack served in the British Army, including in North Borneo and then joined the Colonial Service. He was the Secretary to the last British Governor of Malaysia, Sir William Goode. Sir Jack could not have done the jobs that he did throughout those years without working with the security services.
Sir Jack's son is the Tory MP for Grantham and Stamford, Nick Boles. Before he became an MP, Nick Boles was a member of the disgrace that was Westminster City Council, which did many unlawful and gerrymandering things when Shirley Porter the Tesco heiress was leader. Shirley escaped justice for a very long time, but eventually she was fined a huge quantity of money. Instead of paying the fine, Shirley went to live in Israel and returned to the UK some years later when it seemed she felt confident that she wasn't going to end up behind bars. Comments from a reader of this blog left in response to my post 'The White Heat Of This Revolution' suggest that Shirley had information about the Westminster Paedophile Ring, which was how she got away with so much for so long.
In 2002 Nick Boles was the founder of the think tank Policy Exchange and remained its Director until 2007. Policy Exchange has provided a home for a number of paedophiles' friends with a penchant for right wing politics (see post 'Disgusting Of Tunbridge Wells And A Few Equally Disgusting Others').
Nick Boles is gay.
Sir Jack's second wife was Anne, daughter of the 12th Earl Waldegrave. The 12th Earl – Geoffrey Waldegrave – had strong links to the west country. He became a member of Somerset County Council in 1937 and later worked as a MAFF official with responsibilities in Somerset, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. He was President of the Somerset Trust for Nature Conservation, 1964-80. It is likely that Geoffrey Waldegrave had links with some of those in Somerset who were involved with concealing the wrongdoing of Dafydd et al as detailed in my post 'Include Me Out'. He was a member of the BBC Advisory Council, 1963-66 and he was a Director of Lloyds Bank, 1964-76. Lloyd Tyrell-Kenyon, the paedophiles' friend from north Wales who had numerous links to Dafydd and who's son Thomas was sexually abusing boys in care in north Wales with the knowledge of the Social Services, police and magistrates but was never prosecuted and later died of an HIV related condition, was a Director of Lloyd's Bank. Lloyd Tyrell-Kenyon was also a magistrate, a member of the North Wales Police Authority, President of UCNW, Chairman of Clwyd Health Authority, 1974-78, the most senior Freemason in north Wales and much more besides (see post 'A Bit More Paleontology').
Anne's brother was the Tory politician William Waldegrave – who was, among other things, Secretary of State for Health, 1990-92, under Thatcher and then Major. William was one of the Health Secretaries who colluded with the criminality of Dafydd and the paedophiles.
William and Anne's sister Susan married Marmaduke Hussey, the man whom Thatcher ensured was installed as Chairman of the BBC, although when he was appointed he didn't even know where the BBC HQ was located and he was a disaster for those glorious years when he was in post. One of my friends worked at the Commissioning Dept at the BBC whilst Hussey was Chairman and my friend was forced out because he refused to accept a bribe (see post 'Oh, No! It's The Pathetic Sharks…'). Susan Hussey is one of Prince William's godparents.
The Chair of the Betsi Board Dr Peter Higson – who was a clinical psychologist at and then the manager of the North Wales Hospital Denbigh throughout the paedophile years and has spent his entire career concealing the crimes of Dafydd et al – is the brother of Dr Ruth Hussey, who was the Chief Medical Officer of Wales, April 2012 -16. Ruth Hussey's previous includes being the Director of Public Health for Liverpool, a senior lecturer in public health at Liverpool University and from 2006, the Regional Director of Public Health at NHS North West, when she was seconded to the Public Health England Transition Team at the Dept of Health during the New Labour horrors.
I have no idea whether Ruth Hussey is an in-law of Susan and Marmaduke, but this corrupt incestuous shithouse is so big that it really wouldn't surprise me if she was. I'm beginning to think that Brown and me are the only people who haven't been tempted into this luxurious, ever-embracing public convenience which exists solely to protect Dafydd and a paedophile gang.
The Chairman of the NT whilst it made arrangements for the victims of serious crime to be herded into the sheep pen at Penrhyn Castle was Lord Patrick Gibson, who became Chairman of the NT, 1977-86. Gibson had been a council member of the NT since 1963 and continued to 'take an interest in it' after his retirement. There was trouble for the NT in 1983 when the MoD wanted to expand its operations on NT land and many NT members objected. An angry meeting resulted at which Gibson gave everyone a bollocking and their objections were subsequently ignored.
Lord Gibson served in the war – you've guessed it, he was in SOE and then worked in political intelligence with the Foreign Office. As with so many others who assisted Dafydd and the paedophiles for so many decades, Lord Gibson and Sir Jack Boles did some very impressive things during their time with the forces and risked life and limb to escape from dangerous unpleasant situations. It really is very sad to think that they thought that Dafydd, Lucille and a gang of paedophiles were worth their time and effort protecting. For God's sake, one of those employed at Penrhyn Castle in the 1980s summers used to have gay sex with people in the clock tower – I can remember his name as well, but he might still be alive and in Bethesda, so I won't publish it here, I don't want to hear that he's been found dead as nearly all witnesses now have.
Should anyone make the point that 'oh but they were spies, they could have been undercover and gathering info.' Yes, I've considered that. If they were, they have been gathering info on Dafydd et al since the early 1960s. Dafydd is still a free man Chairing CAIS. North Wales is wrecked, the statutory services don't function and nearly all the witnesses to the north Wales paedophile gang are now dead. The Lords is choc full of those who knew what Dafydd et al were doing but who concealed it. Whatever those spies were doing, it benefited Dafydd and Lucille, not their victims. If they could fight Hitler and sat in the bunker alongside Churchill, why did they have so much trouble dealing with an insane old idiot who's ham acting was so bad that no-one could have been fooled?
People who like to believe that there was no such thing as a Westminster Paedophile Ring and who harrumph and point to the fact that the 'fantasies' of nutters are only appearing online, never in the mainstream media, might like to ponder on who Lord Gibson was. He was married to a member of the family who owned Pearson plc, a newspaper and publishing business. Patrick Gibson was Chairman of the Pearson Group, 1978-83. The Pearson Group included the Westminster Press Group, which owned 46 provincial newspapers, including the 'Northern Echo' and the 'Oxford Mail'. From 1967 Gibson was also Chair of the book publication arm of Pearson, Pearson Longman, which included Penguin. Gibson began working as a journo with the Pearson group in the late 1940s and was soon an Editorial Director. He was on the Board of the 'Financial Times' and became its Chairman in 1975. He was also on the Board of 'The Economist'.
Gibson was Chairman of the Arts Council of GB, 1972-77. He succeeded paedophiles' friend – and Harold Wilson's friend and solicitor – Lord Arnold Goodman as Chair of the Arts Council. He preceded paedophiles' friend and Wilson's Health Minister Kenneth Robinson as Chair (see post 'The White Heat Of This Revolution').
Did Gibson find out about the Westminster Paedophile Gang and that was how he ended up Chairing the Arts Council and the NT? Or was he given those positions because he was a stooge who could be relied upon not to blow the gaffe when he found out that those organisations were full of people who had concealed the wrongdoing of Dafydd et al?
Many of those who colluded with Dafydd and the gang occupied senior roles in organisations concerned with the arts and heritage. Again and again when I research them, they are involved with opera, with galleries, with theatre and with museums. The lucky few sit at the top of those organisations.
Previous posts, such as 'The White Heat Of This Revolution' and 'Include Me Out', have noted how many people at senior levels in Harold Wilson's Gov't covered up the organised abuse of vulnerable people, often under the guise of providing services for the less advantaged. Harold Wilson rivalled Tony Blair in that regard. I have been watching some old documentaries about Wilson's administrations which speculate on why he resigned suddenly and unexpectedly. There is much discussion of old favourites, such as Marcia Williams aka Lady Falkender throwing hissy fits and allegations that Wilson was working for the KGB. No-one mentioned that his toadies were using the welfare state to run a paedophile ring who murdered witnesses, which was probably as much of a problem as his alleged chumminess with the KGB.
I'll be blogging about a few more of those close to Harold who helped Dafydd et al very soon, there are some whom I have not yet mentioned.
One of the undergrads in the Dept of Plant Biology at UCNW, 1981-83, was a mature student called Gaye Kennaway. Her husband Ian was Director of the Regions for the National Trust. Gaye became a personal friend of many of the lecturers at UCNW and at the time I just thought that was because she was older than the rest of us, but now I'm sure that there was something more going on. Gaye was very friendly with Prof Greig-Smith, the ecologist who knew Prof Edred Henry Corner, the Cambridge botanist who was Douglas Hurd's uncle. Hurd was Home Secretary, 1985-89, whilst the Home Office ignored the havoc and criminality in north Wales and at Risley Remand Centre (see post 'Security, Security'). Gaye ended up with a First and a number of lecturers openly remarked that she only received one because of the help that she had received from her pal Greig-Smith. Then Gaye was offered a PhD studentship with Chris Wood, who was married to the corrupt GP Dr D.G.E. Wood, who was facilitating the trafficking ring (see post 'Additional Security Measures' for more about Gaye and Ian Kennaway).
Gaye pushed the boat out to befriend the lecturers from the very beginning of the course, even the lecturers who were notoriously difficult and unfriendly. I was gobsmacked when in the first term I heard Gaye inviting Tony Jones to the opera. Tony Jones snapped that he didn't have time to go to the opera. Gaye told him that he could stay over at her house and go straight into work the next day. Dr Tony Jones was the last person whom one would invite to the opera. He was a rather butch South African earth scientist who spent his time climbing or working with the Ogwen Mountain Rescue Team and who revelled in referring to 'niggers' in the presence of black students. He lived alone and had close relationships with some of the male undergrads which caused comment but never direct accusations. Tony Jones was mates with some of the North Wales Police and for a laugh one day he got them to arrest a student whom he had fallen out with. The student was wrongfully arrested and banged up in the cells in Bangor Police Station overnight and released without charge the next day. Tony Jones would not blend in at Glyndebourne.
So imagine my surprise when as investigations and inquiries into the North Wales Child Abuse Scandal began and the paedophiles' friends launched their huge PR effort to remind everyone that Wales was a musical nation – Praise the Lord – and a literary nation and an arty nation and when Gruff Rhys from Llanllechid, the son of Gwynedd County Council Chief Exec Ioan Bowen Rees, became an international rock star (see post 'The International Language Of Screaming'), Tony Jones popped up on 'This Is Your Life' with Michael Aspel (see post 'The Bloody State We're In'). Tony Jones! He'd never done 'Saturday Night At The London Palladium' or a Royal Variety Performance. He hadn't even appeared with Bernard Manning on 'The Wheel Tappers and Shunters Social Club' on tele. Tony Jones was a racist old geologist from Bangor and before that he was at Aberystwyth University. I'd like to know who was responsible for getting him onto prime time TV.
There are more than a few paedophiles' friends with media links…
One person who would have been finished if the scale of the crime in north Wales had been admitted at that time would have been Lord K.O. Morgan, Principal of Aberystwyth University, the institution which was churning out crooked lawyers. Lord Ken was Mr Big in the Welsh Labour Party. He was married to the late Jane Morgan, a criminologist who grew up in Wrexham and later worked at Oxford. Jane did her PhD at Leicester University when scores of people there were concealing the activities of Frank Beck and Greville Janner. David and Richard Attenborough's dad was Principal of what became Leicester University. See posts 'Radical Leicester And Some Other Free Radicals' and 'Gwlad y Menig Gwynion' for details of those involved in the cover-up. But Jane was also mates with Prof Dick Hobbs, who is a good mate of Laurie Taylor. Laurie's son Matthew was Blair's adviser – Matthew was and might still be Chief Exec of the RSA. Full details re Lord Ken and Jane can be found in my post 'A Bit More Paleontology'.
Shortly after I'd watched Gaye do her best to introduce Tony Jones to the world of La Scala, Gaye told me that she was 'very fond' of another one of the staff – Ralph Oxley. Ralph was married to Isobel Hargreaves, who worked as a social worker for Gwynedd Social Services. Isobel's name later appeared on some of Prof Mark Williams's Mindfulness publications, the enormous research fraud that Williams perpetrated whilst the mental health patients died at the hands of Dafydd and the paedophiles (see post 'The Biggest Expert Of The Lot'.)
Gaye knew how to choose her friends.
The Chairman of the National Trust, 2008-14, was Sir Simon Jenkins. Simon is best known for being the Editor of 'The Times', 1990-92. Before that he worked on 'The Sunday Times' – as did Top Doctor's wife, Lord Snowdon's mistress and one of the paedophiles' greatest friends Marjorie Wallace (see post 'One Dangerous Fucker'). Jenkins has written for many other newspapers as well and currently writes for 'The Guardian'. Sir Simon was on the Board of British Rail, 1979-90. Which was famously atrocious, even though Jimmy Savile kept reassuring us that 'this is the age of the train'. Which is a bit odd, because Savile boasted about his Rolls Royce, which it was later revealed he used to tempt teenaged girls into who were then sexually assaulted and his caravan, which was parked in the grounds of Broadmoor and was the site of a number of rapes. Perhaps Savile was just doing his bit for British Rail to drum up business for Harold Wilson's mate George Thomas, who was known to be sexually molesting boys on the trains between London and south Wales.
Sir Simon has a second home at Aberdyfi in north Wales and he pissed everyone off by writing an article maintaining that people do not have the right to live near their families or where they grew up. Aberdyfi is absolutely lovely and is one of those places in north Wales that is completely beyond the price range of most local people because it has become such a popular destination for people from England who want a second home.
Simon's other home is – or was – in Piccadilly. There are allegations that Simon has a third home as well.
Simon has campaigned against the building of affordable housing. Simon's predecessor at the NT Sir Jack Boles hit the roof when he discovered that there was a plan to build near his home in Devon. Simon's other predecessor at the NT, Lord Patrick Gibson, used his estate in Sussex as his main home but also had a villa north of Venice.
Sir Simon knew Sir Robin Day, who was one of Ronald Waterhouse's closest friends.
Sir Simon's first wife was the American actress Gayle Hunnicutt. Films in which Gayle starred included: 'The Wild Angels' (1966); 'The Legend Of Hell House' (1973); 'The Sell Out' (1976); 'Target' (1985). Gayle's appeared on TV in: 'Thriller – K Is For Killing' (1974); 'Dylan' (1978); 'Strong Medicine' (1986). Gayle also appeared in 'Dallas' (1989-91), which starred some of Joan Collins's mates. Joan Collins was friends with Christopher Cazenove and his wife Angharad Rees. Angharad's dad was the Welsh Top Doctor Prof Linford Rees, who spent many decades concealing the wrongdoing of Dafydd and his associates and who according to legend died peacefully in his chair after a paned and a Welsh cake. Linford also enjoyed showing people photos of his female patients whilst they were in the bath, but that was always taken as a sign that he was a high calibre wag (see post 'A Galaxy Of Talent').
Titania Adoring Sir Simon Jenkins:
The Ass-headed Bottom:
Sir Simon and his mates were at the top of the food chain. Let me introduce a few more of Dafydd's henchmen.
It was the Ty'r Felin children's home in Bangor where children were severely abused and then trafficked for sex, including to Dolphin Square (see post 'Are You Local?'). The manager of Ty'r Felin was Nefyn Dodd – he was assisted in the abuse of the kids by his wife June Dodd and his Deputy, Mari Roberts. I have detailed Dodd's activities in previous posts. Dodd used to boast that he was a friend of Dafydd – Dodd presumably thought that an association with Dafydd was worth boasting about. The Waterhouse Inquiry was told by ex-residents of the brutality and repeated assaults on children by Nefyn and June Dodd, as well as by Mari Roberts. Ronnie dismissed the allegations and constantly made excuses for these three thugs.
One of the bottom feeders at Ty'r Felin was Peter Gadd. Gadd was employed by Gwynedd County Council for years on a temporary contract, in much the same way that Martin Jones, in his capacity as CEO of the NW Wales NHS Trust, staffed Ysbyty Gwynedd substantially by using agency or bank nurses. Anyone who dared mention the neglect and abuse of patients found that they 'didn't get their hours' any longer. Martin didn't even have to worry about bullying them out of their jobs or dismissing them on trumped up charges.
Gadd was a member of the Ogwen Mountain Rescue Team, as were other paedophiles' friends (see post 'No-One Is Innocent') and frequently disappeared from work to go out with the Mountain Rescue Team.
There were many complaints against Gadd of bullying and assault on children and I am told that none of them were properly investigated. I have received an e mail stating that Gadd 'provoked conflict between children so that he could wade in violently to restore order'. This was a favourite technique of the paedophiles' friends in the mental health services as well. Patients would also be baited by staff until even the most even-tempered or mild-mannered of them raised their voice or stood up from their chair, at which point they'd be met with 'restraint' ie. an Angel landing on top of them needlessly, after which a few more Angels would pitch in. In the event of a complaint from the patient, a counter-allegation of assault on an Angel would be made and the patient would be hauled off down to the police station – even if they were sectioned – to be charged. Male patients were on occasions tasered by the police who were called into the hospital. In the events of patients taking their complaints to Ministers, or other witnesses expressing concern, somehow a piece would appear in the local paper concerning the serious problem of Dangerous Psychiatric Patients and how many hundreds of assaults the Angels had sustained recently at their hands.
I witnessed Gadd-like conduct in the North Wales Hospital and I understood immediately what the game being played was, which some other patients didn't. After I left Denbigh, on one occasion when I rang Bryn Golau Ward in an attempt to get some answers because none of my letters of complaint had received a response, an Angel answered and I could hear what was very clearly the baiting of a distressed patient in the background. The patient then started screaming in distress – I knew damn well what was going on and I challenged the Angel who had answered the phone. I heard them say something in Welsh – which I did not understand – to the patient and then they gave the phone to the patient who of course screamed at me down the phone. No doubt the paedophiles' victim had been told that I was a Top Doctor or a police officer or something. The phone was then snatched away from the patient and slammed down on me. Had I been there in person, no doubt a situation would have been engineered in which I would have been thumped.
Bryn Golau Ward, 1987. Dr Peter Higson in a management position in the North Wales Hospital, the Welsh Office ignoring all complaints. That was what was going on at ground level.
In Nov 1987, Peter Gadd gave evidence at the disciplinary investigation held by Gwynedd County Council against the whistleblower Alison Taylor. Alison had been Gadd's supervisor, but he hadn't worked for her since 1984. Gadd gave absolutely damning evidence against Taylor, maintaining that it was Alison that was the problem, not Nefyn Dodd.
In 1987, Gwynedd County Council were planning to take over Cartref Bontnewydd, a by then disused children's home that was previously run by the Methodist Church. Gadd was promised the post of officer-in-charge at Cartref Bontnewydd in return for giving evidence against Alison. Gadd did not know that someone in Gwynedd County Council – I don't know who – had also promised the post to Mari Roberts. Mari was appointed and an angry Gadd later told people that he'd 'lied for Dodd', in order to have Alison sacked.
Mari Roberts never worked with Alison but she also gave evidence against her at the Gwynedd County Council disciplinary panel – in support of Dodd, maintaining that Alison should be dismissed. Alison was dismissed in Nov 1987.
Gadd's wife Patricia worked as a supply teacher – I presume for Gwynedd Education Authority. I understand that she subsequently was employed as a care officer by Gwynedd, although Patricia doesn't seem to have any social work qualification.
It has been suggested to me that this was either compensation for Gadd not being given the post at Cartref Bontnewydd, or that Gadd threatened to go public on the fact that he had lied at Alison's disciplinary hearing.
There were numerous complaints against Mari Roberts as well as against Gadd and the Dodds. There were complaints before the North Wales Police investigation of 1991-93.
By Nov 1987 when Dodd was organising Alison's dismissal, the CPS were still considering a number of serious complaints against Nefyn Dodd. The CPS did not respond until Jan 1988. By Nov 1987 I had made repeated complaints about the mental health services in north Wales about the most serious matters. Dafydd had told me that if I didn't drop my complaints he'd have me arrested and detained in Risley Remand Centre and he did try and do this in the summer of 1987, after a junior doctor perjured himself (see post 'Workers Play Time'). He had also told me that if I did drop my complaints, he would ensure that I would be given a place at Liverpool Medical School. He had contacted my solicitor and told him not to act for me and had tried to find out which patients I might name as witnesses to the wrongdoing. Brown had written to Gwynedd Health Authority stating that he had heard Dafydd trying to threaten and bribe me but received no response. The Welsh Office knew about all of these matters, as did Clwyd and Gwynedd Health Authorities and Gwynedd Social Services. As did the North Wales Police.
The DPP at that time was Sir Thomas Hetherington QC and then Sir Allan Green QC.
As a result of the North Wales Police investigation, 1991-93, over 100 complaints about Nefyn Dodd were referred to the CPS. There was no prosecution of Dodd. By the time that the investigation had finished, I had been prosecuted for 'staring a social worker' in Safeways in Bangor (see post 'Some Big Legal Names Enter The Arena'). The social worker was Jackie Brandt, who had illegally detained me in the psychiatric ward in Ysbyty Gwynedd, where I had the pleasure of Dafydd trying to discuss sex with me and then, after I challenged him, telling me to get out of north Wales and never come back or I'd be arrested (see post 'Include Me Out'). Statements had been made about me by Tony Francis – without my knowledge – to Hempsons, the MDU solicitors, alleging that I had tried to strangle a Top Doctor, tried to throttle a Top Doctor and had attempted to stab a Top Doctor with 'a dagger'. Both Hempsons and Andrew Park, the crooked lawyer who worked for the Welsh Office, wrote to Francis and others admitting that there was no evidence for any of these allegations.
The 1991-93 police investigation also resulted in numerous complaints against Mari, but no prosecutions resulted.
The DPP throughout all this was Sir Allan Green QC and then Dame Barbara Mills QC.
At the Waterhouse Inquiry Mari Roberts was however highly critical of Nefyn Dodd and his regime. She didn't mention her key role in Alison's dismissal, neither did the Counsel for the Inquiry and neither did Ronnie Waterhouse. Mari Roberts is discussed in the Waterhouse Report because witnesses described Mari in rather damning terms. She was described as deeply unpleasant and indeed violent, as Nefyn Dodd's 'henchwoman'. Ronnie was told that Mari had slapped children across the face and around the head, that she had kicked them, dragged them by their hair, forced them to strip and taken away their clothes after they had run away following her previous assaults and that on one occasion she had tried to smother a boy. Waterhouse observed that Mari was a caring woman who was dealing with some very difficult young people. When she was asked to explain the accusation that she had tried to smother a boy, Mari explained to Ronnie that she was 'just being playful'.
And when they say no they mean yes don't they Dafydd?
Like so many paedophiles' friends in north Wales who do not have secure or well-paid employment, Peter and Patricia Gadd certainly live well. The Gadd's live at Llanllechid, at Cysgod-y-Coed. They live in quite a nice converted barn/farmhouse place, with a fleet of 4 wheel drive vehicles parked outside. Their house is not in the main part of the village, it's down a lane. As the crow flies, they must live very near to where Ioan Bowen Rees lived in his Plas. Since Ioan died, Mrs Bowen Rees has moved into the square in Rachub, but still in one of the best houses in the village. The Gadd's and the Bowen Rees's must have just been across the fields from each other.
The Gadd's and the Bowen Rees's lived there when someone made repeated attempts to set fire to my house, which was just down the road from them. That would have been in the early 1990s.
Peter and Pat Gadd are no longer involved in child care, but they have a new source of revenue. They're doing Air B&B! If you look them up on Air B&B, they don't mention their previous careers in sex trafficking. There's a little photo of them cuddled up together looking like a comfy middle-aged couple.
'Will you be wanting a Welsh cake, bach? I've got some in the oven. Ooh, I've got some bara brith on as well, that'll be ready tonight. The beatings and the buggery are extras. We do overnight trips to Dolphin Square as well if you're interested.'
This is what you get if you look up Peter n Pat on Air B&B:

Mari Roberts is now known as Mari Roberts-Jones. Mari was the creme de la creme in Ty'r Felin, she had a degree from UCNW (like Lucille Hughes). I think that Mari Roberts was probably taught at UCNW by the notorious Glyn Williams aka Glyn Patagonia. Like the former Bangor criminologist Prof Roy King, Glyn Patagonia had left UCNW by the time that I began post-doc work there, but he was still remembered as a vindictive bully. Glyn Patagonia went down in history at Bangor because the university brought a disciplinary case against him for systematically marking up Welsh language students and marking down English language students. He was represented by a very grand lawyer as well as by the AUT and he was cleared. When I first heard about this I thought well he probably wasn't routinely doing it, it could have been one of those civil wars as a result of the strife which prevailed in the Dept at the time. I was later told by a number of people who are positive about the Welsh language, 'no, he was guilty as charged, the marks were systematically fiddled'.
Like all good paedophiles' friends, Glyn Williams was a greedy hypocrite and owned a second home in France.
Duw it's hard. Pass the bara brith, put on Dafydd Iwan and we'll have a sing song to keep up our spirits.
A lot of the paedophiles and their colleagues working in the children's homes in north Wales did certificates in social work at Cartrefle College of Education (formerly Cartrefle Training College) in Wrexham. Cartrefle became NEWI (North East Wales Institute) in 1975; in 1993 Cartrefle became an associate member of the University of Wales; in 2004 it became a full member of the University of Wales and in 2008 it became Glyndwr University.
In the early 80s Cartrefle College had a hotline to Nefyn Dodd and Lucille. The paedophiles' friends at Cartrefle reported back to Dodd and Lucille on students, but not through any official channels. It was the usual MO of the paedophiles' friends, gossip and rumour, targeting potential whistleblowers.
The MP for the constituency in which Ty'r Felin was located at the time was paedophiles' friend and Welsh Office Minister Wyn – later Lord Wyn – Roberts (see post 'The Cradle Of Filth'). Dafydd Wigley was told of concerns about events at Ty'r Felin, but as it wasn't in his constituency, he passed the concerns on to Wyn (see post 'It Wasn't On Our Radar'). Ty'r Felin wasn't in Dafydd Wigley's constituency but the HQ of Gwynedd County Council was just around the corner from his constituency office. I'm fairly sure that Dafydd Wigley lives – or lived – in Bontnewydd. In the same village as Cartref Bontnewydd, where Mari Roberts playfully suffocated children and dragged them around by their hair. Cartref Newydd was in Dafydd Wigley's constituency. Ioan Bowen Rees, the Chief Exec of Gwynedd County Council, was an adviser to Dafydd Wigley.
I am told that the standards at Cartrefle College were very, very poor. My post 'A Vampire At Glyndwr University' discusses the many paedophiles' friends who have governed and staffed that very troubled institution. Many of them date back to its time as Cartrefle College. In 2001, whilst the institution was still NEWI, Prof Mike Scott was appointed Principal. It mystified a great many people. Not just because when Mike Scott had done his PhD many moons ago at the University of Wales he had been ordered to rewrite and resubmit and there were people in the region who could remember this happening, but because a great many people maintained that Mike Scott was a completely unsuitable person to have been given that job. Including Brown.
Mike Scott had previously been a PVC at De Montfort University in Leicester and he virtually destroyed the place. He was a key figure in a disastrous senior management team who screwed up so badly that the institution had to be raised from the ashes by the present VC, who seems to have done a very good job. After Scott left De Montfort smouldering on the pavement, everyone at DMU presumed that he'd never work again. Then he turned up at NEWI, presided over events as extraordinary as he presided over at DMU and bugger me, someone then agreed to call his house of dysfunction a University.
In view of the fact that Scott did his PhD at the University of Wales in the days when the paedophiles largely controlled the institution, I cannot help but wonder if Mike Scott played the same old north Wales game – I know what you all did and where the bodies are buried… Gissa job as VC.
Leicester was the location of a paedophile gang which was linked to Dafydd et al…
Mike Scott took up his appointment at DMU in 1989. He had previously worked at Sunderland Poly. There was a paedophile gang located in the Sunderland area with links to Dafydd et al…
Mike Scott stood down from Glyndwr University in 2015. He announced that he would be departing in 2014, after the Home Office withdrew Glyndwr's right to sponsor international students following allegations of visa fraud. The University's Chancellor Sir Jon Shortridge praised Mike Scott's 'outstanding achievements' as VC. Sir Jon Shortridge is a former civil servant who joined the hub of corruption that was the Welsh Office in 1984 and rose to the very top (see post 'The Reality Is, There Is No Problem').
Since devolution, Higher Education has been the responsibility of the Welsh Gov't. When Scott was appointed Principal of NEWI in 2001, Rhodri Morgan was FM, as he was in 2008 when Glyndwr was granted university status.
The University of Salford validated degrees from Cartrefle College. Cartrefle College evolved into NEWI, which offered social work training, as does Glyndwr University. The University of Salford knew that children in care were being abused in north Wales because the Waterhouse Report discusses a student on placement from the University of Salford who was so horrified by what he saw in north Wales that he reported it to the University. As a result he was withdrawn from his placement after a matter of days. This student followed all appropriate guidelines after he witnessed child abuse. Waterhouse dismissed his evidence because he'd only been on placement for a few days so he didn't really know what the care of children in north Wales was like.
The authorities responsible for Cartrefle College were the Welsh Dept at the Ministry of Education and the Dept of Education and Science. It was in the early 1980s when my correspondent told me that they had witnessed appalling standards and when staff at Cartrefle College had a hotline to Lucille and Dodd. The Secretary of State for Education and Science, 1981-86, was Sir Keith Joseph – who's adviser was Barbara Kahan, who colluded with organised child abuse throughout her career (see post 'Always On The Side Of The Children'). Barbara Kahan was one of the people to whom Alison Taylor wrote regarding her concerns about child abuse in north Wales. Alison did not receive a reply. Kahan, along with Allan Levy QC, conducted the Inquiry into the Staffordshire Pindown Scandal in the 1980s and published the resultant Report in 1991. They underplayed the seriousness of the abuse and for how long people had ignored it. Brown and I wrote to Keith Joseph, when we were undergrads, about student finance. The old bastard probably had us targeted then. The Secretary of State for the DES, 1979-81, was Mark Carlisle, who in 1973 had reassured the Commons that he had no concerns about the stream of deaths and the overcrowding at Risley Remand Centre (see post 'Include Me Out').
Previous Secretaries of State for the DES who were responsible for Cartrefle as qualifications were handed out to sex offenders were: Shirley Williams (under PM Jim Callaghan) – Shirl was asked by Dafydd Wigley to hold an Inquiry into the paedophiles' friend Sir Charles Evans's management of UCNW but she refused; Fred Mulley, under Wilson and Callaghan – Mulley was a barrister and like paedophiles' friend Robert Bluglass, an Old Warwickian! (see ref 'Enter Professor Bluglass CBE). The Warwick School website has a little quip about the Old Warwickians 'growing old disgracefully'. Presumably they've heard about Bluglass facilitating an international sex trafficking ring. Someone ought to seize Compton Verney under the proceeds of crime legislation.
Before Fred, the Secretary of State for the DES was Reg Prentice, under PM Wilson. Prentice was a barrel of laughs, he left the Labour Party in 1977 and in 1979 was elected as a Tory MP. Thatcher made him Minister for the Disabled! Prentice died in 2001, but in the last few years before his death he was President of the Devizes Conservative Association. Sir Peter Morrison's family seat was near Devizes and the locality had become completely corrupted as a result. No wonder Reg went and parked himself down there during the Waterhouse Inquiry (see post 'The Most Dangerous Man In The World – Part III'). Prior to Reg, the Secretary of State for the DES was a Margaret Hilda Thatcher. She was so busy withdrawing the free school milk from primary school kids that she took her eye off a gang of paedophiles giving out certificates in social work to other members of the gang. Furthermore her critics were so busy yelling 'Thatcher the Snatcher' that they forgot to mention that Cartrefle was training sex traffickers.
It's all a bit Julian Tudor Hart isn't it (see post 'The Human Stain').
That takes us as far back as 1970. Cartrefle was dishing out the qualifications to the paedophiles' friends even before then. It feels as if it's been going on since the Pre-Cambrian era…
There was a children's home in Llanfairpwll on Anglesey, called Y Gwyngyll, which was the focus of complaints such that in 1981 the Chief Executive of Gwynedd County Council, Ioan Bowen Rees, was obliged to launch an investigation. Bowen Rees called in 'senior officers' of Dyfed County Council who of course found nothing seriously amiss. Ioan Bowen Rees had been the County Secretary of Dyfed County Council before he became Chief Exec of Gwynedd. There was a paedophile ring in Dyfed at the time which had links to Dafydd et al.
An Orthodox priest – yes, north Wales has one – called Father Deiniol who lived in Blaenau Ffestiniog used to have boys from Y Gwyngyll staying over at his house for the weekend. I have been told that on one occasion, one boy returned from Father Deiniol's place highly distressed with, for some inexplicable reason, his toenails painted purple. Alison Taylor stored up yet more trouble for herself when she raised concerns regarding the arrangement between Father Deiniol and the children from Y Gwyngyll. Her concerns were silenced. Nefyn Dodd, David Bailey (the officer-in-charge of Y Gwyngyll) and Gethin Evans all maintained that Father Deiniol was the best thing since sliced bread and that he was providing welcome opportunities for disadvantaged kids to have a weekend break.
I was always intrigued by Father Deiniol's presence in north Wales. The first time that I saw him I was an undergrad and in a Chinese takeaway in Bangor. I was quite surprised when an Orthodox priest came in and ordered some food. I used to see him around Upper Bangor (the part of Bangor where the University arts depts are and the residential quarter where students and in those days many University staff used to live) in the company of a variety of people. Upper Bangor was host to a selection of characters in those days. There was a left-wing bookshop called the Information Centre which was the centre of CND activity; there was a whole food restaurant called Methusala's; there was a load of Bahai people; there was a house covered in activist stickers which housed a crowd of people – some of whom were involved with the domestic violence shelter – including a little boy who used to always sport a 'boys against sexism' badge; there was a man who called himself Brother Dai who, when he heard that I lived on Anglesey, told me that Anglesey was 'the island of free love'. Shortly after encountering Brother Dai, I saw an advert in an alternative newsletter inviting people to come along for a session of 'European Rolfing'. I asked Brown if he knew what on earth European Rolfing was, but he'd never heard of such a practice either. I had the feeling that it might involve Brother Dai.
The people who owned Methusula's were readily identifiable because they seemed to have a great deal of money by Bangor standards. They drove a Porsche, which was unique for alternative people hanging out in Upper Bangor. The restaurant was very small, the prices were reasonable and the customers were mostly students. A lot of businesses in Bangor or Menai Bridge in those days were obviously hobby shops, owned by people who didn't make enough from their shop to live on but who had another source of income (often a spouse who worked in the university or as a Top Doctor) which subsidised the shop. Methusula's struck me as being that sort of business, but the couple who owned it worked in there themselves every night and then drove home in the Porsche which was parked just down the road. They did chat to the students and customers, but their goodwill was a bit forced. They sold up and left Bangor in about 1983 and told me that they were buying a pub and restaurant in Devon. They were so frosty when I asked them what their future plans were – which was weird because I'd been a regular in Methusula's for ages – that I wondered if they had had some sort of bad experience and that's why they were going.
So Father Deiniol used to be seen around Bangor amongst this crowd. Father Deiniol used to turn up to freshers' events at UCNW and he was still doing this when I left Bangor in 2012. I was manning a stall at the postgrad fair and who rolled up but Father Deiniol. I had no idea that he was a paedophiles' friend and hosted the kids from Y Gwyngwyll, I only received information about this after I began this blog.
Father Deiniol has a heavy internet presence. He features on a Facebook page, 'Past Times of Blaenau Ffestiniog' and under the title 'Father Deiniol, Respected Member of Blaenau Ffestiniog' one can read about Father Deiniol's 'journey'. Father Deiniol certainly gets around, he's travelled the world and although he speaks Welsh, English and Greek, it would appear that Father Deiniol originally came from Wrexham. The coverage of Father Deiniol's adventures tell us that he became involved in the Orthodox Church when he was a teenager in Wrexham and subsequently founded the Wales Orthodox Mission in the mid-1980s. Father Deiniol is of the generation who were young men when that paedophile ring based in the children's homes in Wrexham really began expanding their business.
Praise the Lord, we're a musical nation. Paedophile ring you say? Bechod, we've got harps and Elinor Bennett, we've got literature and Kate Roberts, we've got art and Kyffin and we've also got an Orthodox priest with a penchant for purple nail varnish on the toes of young boys…
In 2008, Father Deiniol – Tad Deiniol in Welsh – starred in a TV series, 'Taith Tad Deiniol'. The series was narrated by Twm Morys who did so because he has 'an interest in the Orthodox Church'. Twm is a media-friendly Bard who has featured on this blog recently (see post 'Heart Of Darkness'). Twm's dad/mum is Jan Morris, who when she was James Morris, was a member of the 1953 Everest expedition – the team leader was Sir Charles Evans, the Top Doctor who was Principal of UCNW for all those years when the paedophiles' friends ran the place. Twm and Jan are big fans of paedophiles' friend and colleague Dr Chris Evans.
The TV series starring Father Deiniol was made by Peter Telfer of mid-Wales production company Pixel Foundry, who it is said 'was a pupil of Father Deiniol's at Ysgol Ardudwy'.
Pixel Foundry was dissolved in 2013 but used a number of addresses at Machynlleth as well as one at Abersytwyth Arts Centre. Peter Telfer was the Creative Director and a Suzanne Kemp was the Company Secretary. Peter Telfer used an address in Ceinws for a long time. Ceinws hit the media for all the wrong reasons in 2012, when five yr old April Jones from Machynlleth was murdered by Mark Bridger, who lived at Ceinws, having moved there from Birmingham.
One newspaper article stated that Father Deiniol was the Chaplain at Aberystwyth and Bangor Universities.
Another correspondent has told me that a teacher from Anglesey known to the kids as 'Seagull' who was 'hated and feared' by the children was also a regular at Y Gwyngwyll. I have not been given Seagull's real name.
There was quite a bit of action at Blaenau Ffestiniog other than Father Deiniol and his Orthodox Church. Blaenau hosted Ceryl Wyn Davies, who I am told still lives there. Ceryl Wyn Davies was the Headmaster of Tanygrisiau School (a primary school near Blaenau) who in 1986, whilst Bowen Rees was Chief Exec of Gwynedd County Council, was jailed for 18 months at Mold Crown Court after pleading guilty to three charges of indecent assault on girls under thirteen. Ceryl Wyn was 47 yrs old at the time of his imprisonment and had been Headmaster of Tanygrisiau School for seven years.
Had Ioan Bowen Rees operated on the same level as the rest of us, Ceryl Wyn's conviction might have left him a little red-faced, but being Ioan it won't have. Ceryl Wyn had previous. In 1964, after being convicted at Holyhead Magistrates Court for indecently assaulting schoolgirls whilst being employed as a teacher, Ceryl Wyn was sentenced to nine months in prison. Ioan Bowen Rees stated that Ceryl Wyn's 1964 conviction had been spent and 'had to be ignored'. It was true that Ceryl Wyn's conviction had been spent, but with regard to spent convictions, potential employers are obliged to exercise judgement not ignore the conviction under all circumstances. If the spent conviction is relevant to the job for which the offender is applying, the potential employer is required to take the spent conviction into account. Ceryl Wyn was a child sex offender who had applied for a job as a Headmaster of a primary school.
This was in the days before CRB/DBS checks, so Ceryl Wyn would not have been obliged to mention his 1964 conviction on his application when he threw his hat in the ring for the job as Headmaster of Tanygrisiau School. However, Gwynedd Education Authority were well aware that there was Something About Ceryl Wyn when he became Head of Tanygrisiau. He was already in the employ of Gwynedd County Council as a teacher and was promoted to Headmaster of Tanygrisiau – shortly after he had appeared before Blaenau Ffestiniog Magistrates in 1978 for, er, indecently assaulting school children.
Ceryl Wyn was acquitted. He was defended by the best – Emlyn Hooson QC, the then Liberal MP for Montgomeryshire! Emlyn was a pretty big hitter to bring in for an appearance in Blaenau Ffestiniog Magistrates Court.
Emlyn Hooson was a close mate of Ronnie Waterhouse. Hooson had been part of the Liberal Party panel which investigated Jeremy Thorpe regarding Norman Scott's allegations years before Jeremy stood trial for conspiracy and incitement to murder Norman. The inquiry had finished by Lord Frank Byers – Lisa Nandy's grandfather – hurling insults at Norman and Norman giving up and leaving the room in despair (see post 'My How Things Haven't Changed').
It was the year in which Hooson successfully defended Ceryl Wyn for indecent assault that Jeremy Thorpe was charged with conspiracy and incitement to murder Norman. The year after Ceryl Wyn was acquitted, so was Thorpe.
It must have been really great being a friend of Emlyn Hooson.
Glyn Davies, the Tory MP for Montgomeryshire recently appeared in the Welsh media complaining that the recent TV drama about Jeremy Thorpe cast Emlyn Hooson in a very negative light, which according to Davies, was unfair. Glyn Davies spent years sitting on Montgomery District Council alongside Hooson's wife Shirley, who died very recently (see post 'The Defence Of The Realm').
After Ceryl's second imprisonment – in 1986 – Ioan Bowen Rees maintained that the 1978 panel who promoted Ceryl Wyn to the post of Headmaster was 'not negligent' and 'did not show favouritism'. Bowen Rees made the point that after his 1964 conviction and prison sentence, Ceryl Wyn was reinstated as a teacher by the Dept of Education in 1970. That was when Thatch was Education Secretary and whilst Cartrefle College was busy distributing qualifications to members of a paedophile gang. A great many of whom ended up working for Ioan Bowen Rees. Bowen Rees himself partly blamed Thatch for that business of Ceryl finding himself working as a Headmaster – 'with hindsight we can see that the Dept of Education and the local LEA put too much trust in the individual in question'.
The 'local LEA' will have been Gwynedd, under the then Chief Exec of Gwynedd County Council, David Alun Jones, Ioan's predecessor. Ioan wasn't the Chief Exec when Ceryl Wyn was given a job as Headmaster, but Ioan almost certainly knew Ceryl Wyn back in 1964, when Ceryl Wyn was first jailed for sex offences against children. Because Ioan grew up in north Wales and for years worked as a solicitor for the old Denbighshire County Council. Ioan – and his parents – were well-known locally and in 1955 Ioan stood as the Plaid candidate for Conwy.
Ceryl Wyn may have been only reinstated as a teacher in 1970 out of the kindness of Thatch's heart, but the folk of Blaenau obviously had no worries regarding his conduct with young people very soon after he was released from prison following his 1964 conviction, because in 1968 Ceryl Wyn was a member of the Council which oversaw the Youth Eisteddfod in Blaenau Ffestiniog. I have been sent a nice photo of Ceryl Wyn, along with the other members of the Council – Maldwyn Parry, Gareth Jones, Elwyn Hughes, Morwen Davies, Pegi Lloyd Williams and Geraint Vaughan Jones.
Ceryl Wyn Davies grew up in Blaenau and trained as a teacher at Coleg Normal in Bangor. He has been a member of a number of local choirs, including Cor Meibion y Moelwyn, of which he was the leader. Ceryl Wyn has also been the Chair of Blaenau Ffestiniog Town Council. He is a keen Eistedfoddwr and is a member of the Gorsedd of the Bards. I am told that he still preaches locally.
Anyone who knows Blaenau Ffestiniog will know that there is absolutely no way that people didn't know about Ceryl Wyn's 1964 conviction when he became Head of Tanygrisiau School in 1978. Most of the town will have been to school with Ceryl Wyn and a good few will have been at Coleg Normal with him, EVERYONE will have known.
I am not suggesting that Ceryl Wyn should have been cast into the outer darkness after his 1964 conviction. It says a lot for Blaenau that he wasn't followed by a baying mob demanding his testicles on a platter. But they did know that a very close eye should have been kept on him where children were concerned. Many people will have been well aware of that and may have had great reservations about Ceryl Wyn turning up as the local primary school Headmaster. I suspect that it was the usual story – we don't like it, we are very worried but we don't feel that we can even raise concerns because his mates are bigger than we are and we live here and everyone knows where we live. Neither do we fancy being framed for crimes or being carted off to the North Wales Hospital by the Welsh speaking psychiatric social worker (see post 'No-One Is Innocent') on the grounds that we have some serious delusions about a child molesting Headmaster and his friends.
I really don't have a problem with north Wales accepting Ceryl Wyn back into the fold after he had been to prison. What I have a problem with is the shit that was flung at Alison Taylor, Mary Wynch, me and many others, because we did not have the same mates as Ceryl Wyn, yet we had not serially molested children over decades.
It was in April 1986 when Ceryl Wyn Did It Again and was sent back to prison. Which was about about the time when the threats and aggro towards me from Dr D.G.E. Wood, Tony Francis and other paedophiles' friends began to escalate. I didn't know, but at the time Tony Francis was sending furious letters to the BMA and the MDU stressing how dangerous and twisted I was on the basis of my allegations about Gwynne the lobotomist. Gwynne was almost dead by then, they all knew that he wasn't long for this world, but I was mouthing off and Mary Wynch had put her case before the Master of the Rolls and that had been reported in the London-based broadsheets. I notice that Ceryl Wyn's case received widespread publicity and was even reported in 'The Times'. It was mentioned that Ceryl Wyn had indecently assaulted pupils as he marked their work…
Unlike Ceryl Wyn, I, along with others, were hounded out of jobs and nearly ended up in prison – indeed some people did go to prison – without having committed any offences at all. One of the barristers and judges who led the field in such prosecutions was the fat fool Huw Daniel. Who's father, J.E. Daniel, was an inspector of schools in north Wales and worked at the Bala Theological College, along with the father of Dafydd Iwan – one time leader of Gwynedd County Council – and Alun Ffred, one time member of Gwynedd County Council and subsequently AM for Caernarfon and then Arfon.
Yma O Hyd! Indeed you are – and look at the bloody mess.
After Ceryl Wyn stood accused once more but was acquitted in 1978, Gwynedd County Council assembled a disciplinary panel which met twice to 'review the position'. The panel decided that it was 'unreasonable' to 'force the children who gave evidence during a lengthy court case to be questioned again'. There is a great deal of sense in that conclusion. I can only stand by and gawp as I witness the damage and distress inflicted upon victims of sexual assault as complete fuckwit after complete fuckwit demand that they 'talk about it because it helps'. Does it? When was that demonstrated then? I'm not sure that there is much evidence pointing to that. There is however a great deal of evidence that suggests that sexual predators target people whom they think may have been victims of sexual assault previously. Anyone for Dafydd's sex therapy?
The disciplinary panel would not have needed to have forced traumatised children to give evidence again. The children's evidence had already been heard in open court. It was publicly available. What the panel should not have done was given Ceryl Wyn a job as a Headmaster shortly after the kids had given evidence, thus giving him unsupervised access to primary school children. Perhaps even the siblings and friends of the kids who had given the evidence…
I suspect that the kids of Blaenau Ffestiniog were fully aware of Ceryl Wyn, kids tend to be quite sharp with regard to adults who have a penchant to Fiddle About. It's the adults who can't cope if the Fiddler in question is a Headmaster to whom they are related or are friends with, or a Top Doctor who is good at getting the guilty out of Risley Remand Centre, putting the innocent in there or securing one's relatives jobs as social workers or places at Liverpool Medical School.
But we didn't know!
Jokes, cartoons, songs, nicknames…
We didn't know.
Serious complaints followed by suicides and deaths, houses going up in flames…
A few other stars were and no doubt still are based in Blaenau, along with Father Deiniol and Ceryl Wyn.
In July 2010 Gwilym Euros Roberts was jailed for four and a half years after attacking his estranged wife Catrin with two knives. In April 2010 he broke into Catrin's house in Blaenau – Roberts was also living in Blaenau but in a different house – armed himself with two knives from the kitchen, burst into a bedroom where Catrin was watching TV yelling 'I'm going to kill you, fucking bitch', pushed her onto the bed and tried to stab her in the head and neck. Catrin had been living in fear of Roberts and had dialled 999 when she heard someone breaking in, assuming that it was him. Catrin fought Roberts off, sustaining a broken nose and serious defence wounds to her hands and arms. Catrin stated that Roberts had attempted to murder her.
After Catrin fought back, Roberts 'fled' to the house of 'a friend' – media reports did not mention their name – and stated 'I've lost it, I've tried to stab Catrin'. Roberts made a full admission to the police.
At the time that Gwilym Roberts knifed Catrin, he was on police bail following a brawl in March at the Oakeley Arms at Maentwrog – near to Blaenau – during which it was alleged that Roberts assaulted Catrin and another man, after he found them in a bedroom at the Oakeley Arms. Roberts's bail conditions had stated that he was not to contact Catrin. Several complaints had been made to the police regarding Roberts breaching his bail conditions before he stabbed Catrin and a few days prior to attacking her, Roberts had been arrested on suspicion of criminal damage.
At the time of the attack on Catrin, much was made of broken-hearted Gwilym committing a crime of passion after the slapper Catrin was found with another man. There was no comment regarding why Catrin might have sought comfort in the arms of someone else. Catrin's family simply released photos of a narrowly escaping death Catrin and starkly said 'this is what he did to her'.
Gwilym Roberts was the Councillor for Diffwys and Maenofferen Ward in Blaenau on Gwynedd County Council. Roberts was a Councillor for Llais Gwynedd (Voice of Gwynedd), a breakaway group from Plaid. His conviction and imprisonment caused a by-election.
Roberts stood trial in July 2010. Some reports stated that it was at Mold Crown Court, but others said Caernarfon. He was charged with unlawfully and maliciously wounding or causing grievous bodily harm with intent, rather than attempted murder. Roberts was defended by barrister John Wyn Williams, who stressed that Roberts was 'genuinely ashamed' of his actions.
John Wyn Williams was based at Linenhall Chambers in Cheshire. Lord Alex Carlile was based at the same Chambers. John Wyn Williams is married to an Angel who works – or used to work – at the Ablett Unit, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd. One of her colleagues there was Dr Neil Davies, a mate of Dafydd's. Neil Davies was the RMO for Bryn Golau Ward in the North Wales Hospital when I and so many other people were unlawfully imprisoned there in 1986/87. Copies of medical records in my possession show that when one – brave – Angel – told Neil Davies that I had been unlawfully arrested and detained as a result of a 'deal' between Dafydd and a Superintendent Roberts at Bangor Police Station and she was most unhappy at being involved with this 'deal', Neil Davies told her that she wasn't really involved, all she had to do was to refuse to let me go.
John Wyn Williams was one of the barristers from whom I sought a legal opinion regarding a possible negligence case against the NHS in about 2004-05. I had a conference with him and received a legal opinion that didn't actually say 'no hope on this one', but somehow it all fizzled out without John Wyn Williams explaining why.
Recorder Winston Roddick QC presided over Gwilym Euros Roberts's trial. Roddick is a longstanding paedophiles' friend and was the former Counsel General for Wales when the Waterhouse Report was published (see post 'Have The Lambs Stopped Screaming?'). Roddick stated that Roberts had 'shown genuine remorse' and of course was 'ashamed'. Roddick commented that Roberts had 'an outstanding record of public service. The sentence is the shortest time the law permits'.
The record for Roberts's case mentions that his 'good character', 'remorse' and a 'character reference/witness' were taken into account re sentencing. I do not know who the character reference was.
'Call Dr DA Jones, he's needed in court…'
Gwilym's good luck just went on and on. In March 2011, whilst Gwilym was serving the shortest sentence possible for wounding rather than a massive sentence for attempted murder following two assaults, criminal damage and repeatedly breaking bail conditions, it was reported that Gwilym had been 'wrongly assessed' as being a future risk to the general public and that the condition imposed upon him to be subject to a period of four years on extended licence following his release from prison was overturned. The decision was made in the London Court of Appeal by Mrs – now Dame – Kathryn Thirlwall.
Kathryn Thirlwall went to school at St Anthony's Girls' Catholic Academy in Sunderland, then to Bristol University, then to Newcastle Poly.
Readers will remember the paedophile gang which operated in the north east with links to Dafydd's gang in north Wales, who were protected by politicians, civil servants, Top Docs etc. Readers might need reminding that Lord David Hunt, who spent so many years concealing the crimes of Dafydd et al, is a Bristol University alumnus. As is D.G.E. Wood.
I am told that the MDU are now using the lawyers DAC Beachcroft. A company led by Lord David Hunt.
Grace Dent, the journo who is relentlessly talked up by 'Woman's Hour' and has her own Radio 4 series which involves Grace giving voyeuristic accounts of the troubles of the members of what Blair called the underclass whilst she talks in a hushed northern voice, praised Mrs Justice Thirlwall to the skies after her judgement in the Mick Philpott case, which involved the scrounger with dozens of kids who perished in a house fire whilst the family lived high on the hog on benefits. Grace was particularly impressed with Kathryn Thirlwall being in possession of ovaries and related this to Kathryn's firm line on male violence towards women.
In that case Grace, perhaps you'd like to move to Blaenau Ffestiniog where you too will be able to reap the benefit of Kathryn Thirlwall's Wimmin's Wisdom. There'll be a spare house for you, because I imagine that when Gwilym Roberts was released, Catrin and anyone who dared support her relocated to another planet. There would have been a spare house anyway, Blaenau is on its knees after years of fuckwittery and it didn't even have a cashpoint until a few weeks ago after a campaign led by the local MP Liz Saville Roberts. There's no work and not many buses to get to work if anyone is lucky enough to find a job, so the houses are among the cheapest in the UK. If you're retired or have a private income you'll be OK and the countryside around Blaenau is lovely. But unfortunately you've got Gwilym on your doorstep and he's untouchable.
The high profile Wimmin's Champs in Wales such as Jane Hutt and Val Feld remained totally silent in the wake of Catrin nearly being murdered. Jane Hutt was the driver behind the vomit-inducing plaque commemorating Val Feld which now shines from the wall of the Senedd. Jane was the founder of Welsh Wimmin's Aid. Whilst I was under attack by the paedophiles' friends, a Wimmin's Aid worker lived right opposite my house. She stood next to me at the bus stop, she passed me in the street and on one occasion she was in Bangor Magistrates Court when the paedophiles' friends were trying to fit me up yet again. It was about five years before she even spoke to me and that was after I had left the village. I doubt if she is wicked through and through, she was probably just terrified of the paedophiles' friends, as many people are when you get to know them.
Welcome To The Jones' Motel
Dare You Have A Shower?
Somebody has told me that years ago I and other young women were filmed a la Psycho without our knowledge and the footage flogged and circulated. I can only presume that the scene of the crime was at dear old Denbigh. It was suggested that I should be in the throes of some sort of #Me Too trauma. Well I'm not. It doesn't surprise me in the least, everyone knew what was happening to us and no-one, no-one at all helped us. At least I am still alive. I am far more interested in sociology and history and writing this blog and naming the people who were involved in this foulness, many of whom are still popping up in the media or in Parliament to give us the benefit of their wisdom. I heard wimmin's wisdom on the radio the other day, but I only caught a bit of it. An American feminist who is busy in the UK yelled at the interviewer that the only way of stopping male sexual violence was by making prostitution illegal. Well that worked so well in north Wales didn't it. By the way Ms Wimmin's Wisdom, things were so bad in north Wales that Dafydd and co abducted boys and sold them across Europe. No-one gave a stuff but Jane and Val did bang on about being strong wimmin and chwarae teg at length.
Before Gwilym Roberts was banged up, he was a Director of Tourism Partnership Mid-Wales; Prime Cymru; Gwynfryn Cymuneddol Cyf; and Secretary of Tan y Maen Ltd.
I may have got this wrong, but I am fairly sure that Gwilym used to be a children's/young person's social worker with Gwynedd County Council, although all references to this have disappeared from the internet. After Catrin nearly left for the next world, I remember noting the unique combination of a broken heart, a passion for the community, a record of outstanding public service and a near brutal slaying that was to be found within Gwilym, because I remembered Gwilym from some years previously.
Gwilym had been a leading light in a group which was established in Wales in about 2000 called Cymuned, in response to the perceived crisis in rural Wales. The concerns were the dying of the Welsh language, closures of rural schools and other services, houses being beyond the price of many local people's pockets and the lack of employment which paid well enough to actually enable one to support oneself. Some of my friends were involved in Cymuned and invited me along, so I went to some meetings. The English press were keen to portray Cymuned as a cottage-burning Nazi-style anti-English group – someone cheerily asked me why I was hanging out with the Welsh Nazis – but there were people in Cymuned who were definitely not of that ilk. I met some very genuine people who were nothing but welcoming to me and who were tearing their hair out over what was happening in rural Wales. But then the usual phenomenon emerged. The nutters and the in-fighting.
I knew one member of Cymuned who was forced out of her job at Coleg Menai as a teacher of Welsh to English speakers by a Plaid Councillor on the grounds that Cymuned might damage Plaid at the polls. This teacher was so enthusiastic that in her spare time she and a group of her friends had offered free Welsh lessons to anyone who was interested. Which is surely the sort of Welsh teacher that one needs. Then the 'Daily Mirror' began launching attacks on Cymuned, particularly Llais Councillor Seimon Glyn. The Mirror had a go at Seimon Glyn because he had been making public speeches about the cost of housing in rural Gwynedd – which was a very real problem.
The Cymuned battles took place just before and just after the publication of the Waterhouse Report. The Mirror could have mentioned that Seimon was a young person's social worker in Gwynedd and asked him how he managed to miss the presence of a vicious paedophile gang which was facilitated by his managers and his colleagues. But The Mirror didn't. They got cross because Seimon spoke Welsh and was raising concerns about the dire state of the economy in north west Wales. Call me naive but I can't see anything wrong with that.
I remember seeing Gwilym Roberts at Cymuned meetings. I didn't know him but he wasn't one of the welcoming ones. He reminded me rather of Martin Webster of the National Front in the mid-70s. Gwilym was articulating concerns that people had brought to him and was welcomed by some as a people's champ, but there was a sort of aura of serious aggression which surrounded Gwilym. I thought perhaps that I was being a poncy Guardian reader and detecting something that wasn't there, but years later some residents of Blaenau told me that Gwilym had upset and alienated some people in Cymuned by his hostility and aggression. Then some other people in Blaenau told me that Gwilym was not a nice man and had been doing some very unacceptable things for a long time but was well-protected by his mates.
Including the Court of Appeal in London it would seem.
Gwilym was mates with another Llais Councillor from Blaenau, Dafydd Williams, a man known locally as Black Dafydd, which always upset newly arrived English people because they immediately presumed it to be a racist insult. It wasn't. Black Dafydd is Welsh, but grew up in the Methodist orphanage in Bontnewydd – he was the only black person around and he ended up being called Black Dafydd by his mates and people close to him. He didn't have a problem with it – I suspect that he did experience racism but his mate's nickname for him wasn't a manifestation of that. One thing that really did irritate him was being called a Taffy when he went to train as an Angel in the north of England.
Anyone for lecturing Welsh people on the evils of racism?
Black Dafydd worked as a mental health nurse in north Wales. He had also previously been a police officer, in Wales and elsewhere. I have never discussed the North Wales Child Abuse Scandal with Black Dafydd, but he must have known what another Dafydd who was white was doing, he absolutely must have.
A paedophiles' friend of the highest order lives in Blaenau – Hefin Davies, the lying crook and Freemason who was the Chairman of Gwynedd Health Authority and then the Chairman of the NW Wales NHS Trust. The Hefin who's signature is on documents in my possession showing that after I continued to raise concerns regarding Dafydd Alun Jones, Hefin's response was not to investigate but to consult a number of lawyers and ask them how I could be prosecuted.
Can you explain your response Hefin? Particularly as you had also received a letter from Brown – which was ignored and which your lapdog Ian Rickard claimed not to have received – telling you that he had heard Dafydd trying to bribe and threaten me into dropping my complaint against him?
I think that the whole lot of you should probably get down to Bangor pier and chuck yourselves off the end, I think that you've been rumbled.
The voice of Gwynedd??? The voice of a paedophile ring who supplied Thatcher's friends with children for sex I think.
People who have followed this blog for a while might remember my references to the havoc in Blaenau some years ago when a war allegedly between 'the Welsh' and 'the English' took place, including in the local MIND drop in centre. A leading light in Blaenau MIND appeared in the 'Daily Post' alleging appalling anti-English feeling in Blaenau. Which is a bit weird, because Blaenau is a bit like Bethesda, it's a former quarrying town where a lot of hippyish English people moved in ages ago, with a lot of mixing between the two groups. What there is in Blaenau, as with Bethesda, are paedophiles' friends inflaming every situation possible. MIND is run by Dafydd and the paedophiles and has been for years.
Subsequent media coverage alleged that the aggro at MIND was not the result of anti-English feeling. According to the people who had been accused of racism, it was the result of a load of absolute bastards who had recently moved into Blaenau and colonised the MIND centre there. Further media coverage – and conversations that I had with people – revealed that Manchester City Council had purchased a whole lot of cheap houses in Blaenau and had literally dumped a group of problem tenants in them because Manchester didn't want them any longer and it was these tenants who had been at the centre of the aggro. There was understandably outrage that Manchester had decided to give Wales the citizens that it didn't want, but I did not ever hear any explanation as to how and why Manchester decided to use Blaenau as a dustbin. Someone sold Manchester City Council that job lot of houses and someone – indeed quite a lot of people – will have known that a penal colony of Mancunians was to be established in Blaenau.
Gwynedd County Councillors will have been among those who knew that this was going to happen. The North Wales Police will have known. The regional NHS will have known. The regional Social Services will have known.
Gwilym! Hefin! When did you find out that it was going to happen? Who flogged – and indeed advertised – that housing to Manchester City Council? Who INVITED them to dump their needy, expensive, rather difficult citizens into one of the most disadvantaged towns in Gwynedd? I think we should be told.
I mentioned that there was an English speaking contingent in Blaenau involved with radical causes. I used to hear about them years ago when I was a student at UCNW, but I didn't know them. I later found out that some of them at least ended up living in the area because the presence of Bertrand Russell nearby made it a bit of a Mecca for people interested in radical causes. The Bertrand Russell who had so many friends and associates who knew, even back then, that there was organised abuse of vulnerable people in the region but that Top Docs and asylums could provide a helpful solution should anyone start making too much of a fuss (see posts 'So Who Was Angry About What?' and 'No-One Is Innocent').
The Hergest Unit patients who enjoyed themselves so much in the 1990s by ringing up Dafydd and pretending to be people as corrupt as him who had got themselves involved with ridiculous tangles as a result of their wrongdoing fell about laughing every time that Dafydd fell for the bait and would say 'how can I help, how I help?'. Dafydd was always ready with a place in a nursing home for an awkward relative or a bed in a detox unit or an Army pension. Dafydd might be interested to know that on one occasion a distraught gentleman rang Dafydd's 'private secretary' at his wit's end because of his father-in-law, who had begun to develop dementia and repeatedly groped all the private nurses who had been employed to look after him. The problem was so bad that five nurses had walked out and word had got around and now no nurses would come to the house. Dafydd's secretary was ever so sympathetic and said that perhaps a bed in one of Dafydd's nursing homes was indeed the answer. The distraught gentleman asked of he should leave his details and his father-in-law's name – it was of course 'Dafydd Alun Jones'. The secretary screamed with laughter, sounded as though she had nearly fallen off her chair and then put the phone down.
'We didn't know.'
You all knew and the reason why you all joined in the bellyaching about 'dangerous patients' was that the patients had begin to discover the extent of Dafydd's criminality and were finding out who was helping him.
An e mail that I received some time ago suggested that in a region like north Wales, a major trafficking ring would have needed the collusion of the 'police surgeons' – which was the grandiose term for local GPs who would attend the police station if the police thought that it was necessary. The police surgeons were undoubtedly colluding with Dafydd and the paedophiles. My post 'Hippocratic Oath Or Hypocritic Oaf?' detailed the conduct of a police surgeon, Dr K. Shah, who, after what must have been the only honest social worker in Gwynedd refused to section me just because Dafydd told her to do so, told Sgt Morgan of Bangor Police Station to unlawfully keep me in the cells whilst Shah rang around and found a social worker that would do what they were told. Shah was a GP in Menai Bridge who was in a GP practice with Dr P.W. White, another paedophiles' friend. On another occasion on which Dafydd and the paedophiles had me arrested, another police surgeon turned up. As usual I was not given his name, no-one was ever given anyone's names. He didn't conduct himself like Shah, he was quite pleasant and good-humoured, but he certainly knew all about Dafydd's less reputable activities because he sat there joking about them. He didn't section me, but left the police station. Yet no-one let me go. Once more I was held illegally for hours 'because Dr DA is coming to see you'. Dafydd turned up at about midnight, crashed through the doors and said to me 'I think ewe should be in prisssson'. Why, he did not explain. I didn't end up in prison, Dafydd's Cunning Plan was foiled, although I was kept at the police station overnight and kicked out the next day. The police surgeon who had joked about Dafydd's idiocy did not raise any concerns regarding what was happening.
Dr D.G.E. Wood was one of the police surgeons. So of course police surgeons were colluding with Dafydd and the paedophiles, Wood was one of them.
My correspondent – who is a Top Doctor himself – made the point that much of the police surgeons' work is related to the use of alcohol and drugs. Which hadn't occurred to me. Corrupt Top Doctors working in that domain would certainly be able to cause havoc for patients in custody. Furthermore Dafydd was north Wales's 'substance abuse consultant'.
On one occasion, in Caernarfon Police Station in about 2003, a police surgeon was called – after the mental health services had once again had me arrested on the basis of the perjury of their own staff – who seemed incredibly nice. He talked to me at length, stated his opinion frankly that the Hergest Unit was so unsafe that patients should not be there. As he left he told me that he was so unhappy at 'what has happened to you today' that he would be leaving a log of his concerns on the police record. It was another three years or so before my lawyers extracted my records, but although I've found the paperwork and the police records relating to that occasion, there is no record of this GP having seen me. Whether he was yet another person who was frightened and just told me a lie or whether he did make a record and it disappeared I don't know.
The other service which was fully on board with the sex trafficking ring in north Wales was the Ambulance Service. I have mentioned before that the abducted always arrived at Denbigh under cover of darkness, in the middle of the night. Everyone ended up there after being unlawfully arrested, but they were never taken to Denbigh by the police, it was always by ambulance. Furthermore, although the abducted were usually arrested during daylight hours, for some reason an ambulance was never available until after about 10 pm. Well police cars would have been noticed wouldn't they. And as with Angels and Top Doctors who are vital cogs in a people trafficking gang, Ambulances can be wrapped up as part of a 'caring' NHS, rather than a punitive police response. It was of course Alun Davies, the manager of the Hergest Unit, who wrote that splendid letter and CC'd it to other managers and Top Docs, explaining that it was helpful that I had agreed to see Tony Francis because that would give Gwynedd Health Authority the appearance of taking a 'caring' attitude to me, which would stand them in good stead with the magistrates the 'next time that we prosecute her'. I wasn't facing any charges when Davies wrote that letter, but it wasn't long before I was.
In north Wales I knew of a violent wife-beating ambulanceman who was abusive to one of his neighbours who was a Hergest patient and was also very abusive to his own step-daughter who was a mental health patient. His long suffering second wife finally escaped from him and told me that she suspected that he might well have killed his first wife. His first wife 'had a breakdown', was taken to Denbigh and on the day that she was released was later found drowned on Denbigh moors. The ambulanceman had collected her – in his ambulance no less, not in the family car – and on the way home, she had 'gone mad', overpowered him, run away and must have drowned herself.
I knew of other people who became paramedics in north Wales who I certainly would not have wanted to be in the back of an ambulance with, but north Wales doesn't seem to be alone where dangerous ambulancemen are concerned. In 1978 a 13 yr old newspaper boy in the West Midlands, Carl Bridgewater, was shot dead on an isolated farm. Four men were subsequently imprisoned for Carl's murder, but it was admitted in the end that they had been framed by the notoriously corrupt West Midlands Serious Crime Squad and after many years languishing in prison they were released. Subsequent investigations suggested that Carl's murderer was suspected to have been an ambulanceman who was allowed to do pretty much anything that he wanted when 'on duty' and who also had a supply of caring NHS colleagues who lied to the police and fabricated documentation when questioned (see post 'More Than Politics And Local Government').
At the time that Carl was killed, nearby in Staffordshire, there was serious child abuse. An Inquiry was subsequently held, Chaired by paedophiles' friends Barbara Khan and Allen Levy QC, which admitted serious abuse but not as serious as it was. The most high-profile figure in the Staffordshire Pindown Scandal was a social worker called Tony Latham, who sounded remarkably like Gwynedd's own Keith Fearns. Latham was a poorly qualified 'team leader', aggressive and intimidating to both clients and colleagues and the focus of complaints that were not investigated. Latham also ran a number of businesses which were completely unrelated to social work and were rather odd. As did Keith Fearns. Fearns ran a B&B which is not a weird thing to do, but Fearns hated the human race, it's not as if he would want to entertain strangers, but most intriguingly, Fearns for years ran a fancy dress hire company. I never worked out what it was all about, but at the bottom of Fearns's drive was a big sign advertising fancy dress hire. If anyone can think of any reason why a perjuring people trafficker would be hiring out fancy dress, please let me know. It was fancy dress, rather than disguises or plastic surgery to change Fearns's appearance when he escaped to South America, he could hardly escape justice dressed up as Marie-Antoinette.
Recent comments left on this blog mentioned that Greville Janner seemed to have used Jewish networks to protect himself. Janner and Leo Abse both certainly did this, but I don't think that it can therefore be concluded that there is a particular problem with child abuse in the Jewish community. Abusive people utilise whatever networks to which they have access in order to use as umbrellas. In north Wales, Dafydd and co used political parties, the National Eisteddfod, the International Eisteddfod, the various churches and chapels, the choirs, Welsh language groups, indeed just about everything. Then there were the charidees and wimmin's groups who were concealing Dafydd and the paedophiles. English people tended to point at 'Welsh' things and scream, but sadly Dafydd et al had such a grip on the region that the whole of society had been corrupted.
The paedophiles' friends in the Bangor area congregated at the Bangor Golf Club. There was a contingent of people in the area who made a point of playing at the Beaumaris Golf Club rather than Bangor and I did wonder if it might have been because they felt so uncomfortable at Bangor Golf Club. Or of course they might have had their own scam going over at Beaumaris. Bob Ingham, Keith Fearns's henchman in the Arfon Community Mental Health Team, could be found playing golf at Bangor Golf Club when he was supposed to be on duty, a number of members of the clique who hung around the NHS managers in Gwynedd also spent their leisure time at Bangor Golf Club, as did Elwyn Jones, the corrupt Bangor solicitor who was a paedophiles' friend and who doubled up as Treasurer of Bangor University. Elwyn Jones was so enthusiastic about Bangor Golf Club that I would see him in Bangor Magistrates Court – he always gave the impression of being completely uninterested in his clients and not very competent either – and he would be doing nothing but telling the other solicitors and court officials how he was looking forward to getting onto the golf course after court. I would watch Elwyn Jones do the absolute bare minimum for his clients – even those in a state who were facing a possible prison sentence – and the minute that the case had finished, he'd shoot out of the door and head for the golf course.
I used to think that Elwyn Jones must have been the most boring old fart in Bangor, but I didn't realise that Bangor Golf Club was one of the prime networking sites for the paedophiles' friends. Which made a syndrome that I noticed in the mid-1990s very worrying. Golf became very popular among boys of about 10-12 yrs old in the Bangor area. Someone was vigorously promoting golf as a nice thing that dads could do with their sons if the boys were approaching adolescence. Obviously, the dads went to the golf club with their sons, but then as the boys got more confident on the course and became keener and keener and the poor old dads needed a rest, the boys were told that of course they could come and play golf by themselves. I used to chat to a boy at the Bethesda bus stop who would tell me all about it. I was a bit surprised that a boy of 11 or 12 would want to spend his time with Elwyn Jones and the old farts of Bangor, but now I know what that golf club was being used for I find it horrifying.
So let's name another in hiding who knew what Dafydd and the paedophile gang were up to.
Here's a surprise for everyone – as it was for me when I realised: Dr Lyndon Miles, a GP in Bangor who arrived in Gwynedd in about 1983-84. Dr Miles was the Vice-Chair of the Betsi Board when it was led by Mary Burrows who was doing her best to challenge the paedophiles friends and the BMA in north Wales – or at least I think that she was. I knew damn well that the paedophiles' friends were trying to sabotage the new Board and there were knives going into people's backs all over the place. What I didn't know at the time was that Edwina Hart, the Health Minister, who loathed the paedophiles' friends herself, was of course deeply compromised because of her previous in the TUC – and as a member of the Swansea Mafia – where she had spent many years doing deals with the paedophiles' friends to advance herself. She did exactly the same thing when she was appointed Health Minister, so she couldn't actually get rid of them let alone arrest them, in spite of me having given her enough evidence to put some of them on trial. The rotten core remained intact, with the usual NHS solution – new job titles and new logos everywhere.
Dr Lyndon Miles was a friend of Edwina's. It was Lyndon's resignation as Vice-Chair that precipitated the collapse of the newly appointed Betsi Board, which led to the return of Peter Higson, Margaret Hanson and the bestest vintage paedophiles' friends. I witnessed Lyndon address a baying mob of paedophiles' friends at a public meeting – the baying mob was organised by an NHS trade union rep, I arrived early, heard the plan and watched it unfold. The mob had been bussed in from Blaenau Ffestiniog no less. The baying mob were going apeshit about the proposal that newborns needing intensive care should be treated at Arrowe Park near Liverpool, rather than in north Wales. Lyndon made an excellent speech explaining that the best care was available at Arrowe Park and if he had a critically ill baby, he would want the best care for the baby. I was in agreement, because I knew that the maternity units in north Wales were dangerous, that babies and even on occasion mothers had died needlessly and that Edwina was not coming clean about this. What I didn't know was that Dafydd and the paedophiles controlled most of the Liverpool NHS as well, including I expect Arrowe Park.
Lyndon's resignation came as quite a surprise, especially to me. Because just two weeks previously, Lyndon had bumped into me in a cafe and told me how good it was that someone at least understood the Board's dilemma. I told him that I thought the threats that had been made in public to the Board were very unacceptable and that I noted that no-one, not even the politicians or the media who witnessed it, had called for calm. Lyndon responded by saying that it was becoming very difficult, that the press were in full cry and were being led by Trinity Mirror group, but the Board were determined and would not crumble. It can only have been two weeks later that Lyndon resigned, causing a crisis.
So it seems that Lyndon was yet another person who was not being honest and transparent. So I'll give Lyndon a surprise. Because I am not the sort to join a baying mob, I'll remind Lyndon of a few things that I was keeping politely quiet about when he told me that honestly, he really had never heard anything at all about the abuse of mental health patients in north Wales. I knew Lyndon many, many years ago. As the crisis caused by the sex traffickers running the Student Health Centre reached catastrophic proportions, a lovely young doctor arrived to join the Student Health Centre and he came highly recommended to all those who had heard about the lobotomist and Wood and said 'Christ I'm not going there'. A Dr Lyndon Miles. I never heard anyone allege that Lyndon had groped them, propositioned them or treated them so brutally that they attempted suicide. Lyndon was always charm itself and his patients liked him. But Lyndon knew what Wood and Gwynne Williams were doing and he let them carry on doing it. Even when one of his patients was murdered by the gang. It was my housemate Anne. Anne and I had many conversations, she knew what had happened to me and I heard a lot about her consultations with Lyndon. They murdered her Lyndon and I bet that you realised that.
Lyndon had another patient who was ruined by the gang as well. A Bangor student who developed mental health problems who was literally passed around the junior gynaecologists at Ysbyty Gwynedd. She became pregnant by two different junior doctors and she was coerced into an abortion by them each time. They arranged the abortion – in a area of the UK which prided itself at that time on having so many Top Docs and others who were anti-abortion that they had made it virtually impossible for women to access abortions on the NHS – and when she told them that she didn't want an abortion, on both occasions the solution was the same. She was found a bed in the psych ward at Ysbyty Gwynedd, by her very helpful GP, Dr Lyndon Miles, where she was left alone and distressed whilst pressure was applied from all staff to have a termination because how would a girl like her ever look after a baby? Within two days of having the terminations, she was discharged by Tony Francis with no aftercare. Other staff and patients were told not to have anything to do with her because she really was a dreadful character (see post 'Another Case Of 'Not Knowing'?).
Terrible girl actually – with a First, who was winning national poetry competitions, kind-hearted, sensitive and who could have had a few people in prison if anyone had ever treated her complaints as they should have.
Happy memories Dr Miles! Take a hint – don't ever be so fucking stupid as to do a deal with a paedophile ring and a Health Minister who isn't as savvy as she thinks that she is again.
Dr Miles is Chair of the Board of Trustees at St David's Hospice in Llandudno, an institution governed and managed by the paedophiles' friends since it's inception.
