If only we can get these mainstream journalists to seriously look at all the
other exposures going on in the alternate media. I was listening to BBC 5
live radio in the car this morning and they were discussing the child abuse
allegations of Cyril Smith former MP and although they talked to the authors
of a book about it and a former detective taken off the case in the late 1960's.
who suspected a cover up , the interviewers never go anywhere with their
line of questioning.

They have pussyfooted around the subject for decades instead of getting an expert
like David Icke on, who knows more about these subjects than anyone in
broadcasting. Other than those who are covering it up and participating.

Anyway on a brighter note....

Pair awarded highest accolade in US journalism, winning Pulitzer prize for public service
for stories on NSA surveillanceThe Guardian and the Washington Post have been
awarded the highest accolade in US journalism, winning the Pulitzer prize for public
service for their groundbreaking articles on the National Security Agency’s surveillance
activities based on the leaks of Edward Snowden.

The award, announced in New York on Monday, comes 10 months after the Guardian
published the first report based on the leaks from Snowden, revealing the agency’s bulk
collection of US citizens’ phone records.

In the series of articles that ensued, teams of journalists at the Guardian and the
Washington Post published the most substantial disclosures of US government secrets
since the Pentagon Papers on the Vietnam war in 1971.

Washington Post and Guardian share Pulitzer PrizeAfter the Pulitzer Prize for Public
Service was awarded to The Washington Post, reporters and editors gather in the
newsroom in Washington 14 April 2014 The Washington Post's Barton Gellman wrote
some of the NSA surveillance stories that won the prize The Guardian and Washington
Post have shared the Pulitzer Prize for public service journalism for a series of stories on
US electronic spying.Their reporting was based on documents leaked by former National
Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden.Among other winners of the top prize in
US journalism was the Boston Globe, for breaking news reporting.Two staff writers of
the Reuters news agency were awarded the prize for international reporting.

The Pulitzer Prizes are awarded by the Columbia University journalism school.

In giving the top prize to The Guardian US and the Washington Post, the Pulitzer
committee said the Guardian helped "through aggressive reporting to spark a debate
about the relationship between the government and the public over issues of security
and privacy".

It said the Post's stories were "marked by authoritative and insightful reports that
helped the public understand how the disclosures fit into the larger framework of
naional security".

Mr Snowden, in a statement published by The Guardian, called the award "a vindication
for everyone who believes that the public has a role in government.

"We owe it to the efforts of the brave reporters and their colleagues who kept working
in the face of extraordinary intimidation," added Mr Snowden, who has been charged
with espionage in the US and is currently a fugitive in Russia.

That is part of something much larger, I'm sure. When hand guns were banned by tony blair it was rumoured in the Scottish press that it was to prevent revelations about a paedophile ring which involved some high up politicians. Those rumours have circulated for years and only now do we get revelations about Jimmy Saville ans Cyril Smith. There is no smoke without fire

If there are any journalists looking in, you should look at the work
of David Icke on this subject.If you are bright and intelligent it will
lead you down the rabbit hole and your boss won't like it. But if you
just stick to his ritual child abuse research that will open your eyes
if you are open minded.....

Or interview others in the alternate media like Barrister Michael Shrimpton .
Former PM Edward Heath was a paedophile murderer whom Jimmy Saville
was a procurer of young boys, according to Shrimpton. You do not have to
agree with all he says but there is a underlying trend of criminal murder and
abuse at the heart of the establishment according to more whitness's.

Published on 17 Jan 2013


What David Icke has said since 1998 about paedophile and child killing Prime
Minister Ted Heath is backed-up here by barrister Michael Shrimpton, an
Intelligence and national security consultant, from his own contacts and inside
experience

Michael Shrimpton says that Prime Minister Heath (1916--2005) was a paedophile
who murdered his young boy victims or had others do it, often by throwing them
into the sea after Heath had abused them on his yacht.

The record-breaking paedophile and BBC 'star' Jimmy Savile supplied boys for
Heath - many of them from the Jersey children's home, Haut de la Garenne, with
the support of those who ran the home.

These facts were covered up by Heath Cabinet Secretary John Hunt, Baron Hunt of
Tanworth, who Shrimpton says was also a paedophile. Hunt was appointed by the
Queen to be a Companion, Knight Commander and Knight Grand Cross of the
British Order of chivalry known as the The Most Honourable Order of the Bath of
which the Queen is the head and Prince Charles the Grand Master. Hunt was also
given a Papal Knighthood by Pope John Paul II - so was Jimmy Savile who was also
knighted by the Queen.

Jimmy Savile was a close friend of Lord Mountbatten, Prince Philip and Prince
Charles from the 1960s and this continued for decades AFTER the cover up of
Heath's paedophilia and child murder in league with Savile. You mean they didn't
KNOW? Is someone having a laugh? British Intelligence didn't know? Ditto.

What's more ... AFTER the Heath-Savile cover up, Savile became such a close
friend of Heath's successor and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her husband
Denis that he was invited to be with them on New Year's Eve every year for more
than a decade.

Thatcher's government and circle of associates and aides was alive with
paedophiles including Chester MP Peter Morrison, a close aide to Thatcher from
1975 to 1990. He was a notorious paedophile, well known to colleagues and the
media, and yet Thatcher and her Cabinet and inner circle did NOTHING while he
was abusing boys in North Wales children's homes and elsewhere. Anyone in that
circle MUST have known. Thatcher minister Edwina Currie wrote in her published diaries:

'One appointment in the recent reshuffle has attracted a lot of gossip and could be
very dangerous: Peter Morrison has become the PM's PPS [Parliamentary Private
Secretary]. Now he's what they call a 'noted pederast', with a liking for young boys;
he admitted as much to [Conservative Party chairman] Norman Tebbit when he
became deputy chairman of the party but added' 'However, I'm very discreet' - and
he must be! She [Thatcher] either knows and is taking a chance, or doesn't; either
way, it's a really dumb move.

[Conservative MP] Teresa Gorman told me this evening (in a taxi coming back from
a drinks party at the BBC) that she inherited Morrison's (woman) agent, who
claimed to have been offered money to keep quiet about his activities. It scares me
as all the press know, and as we get closer to the election someone is going to
make trouble, very close to her indeed.'

I named Edward Heath as a serial paedophile and child killer in my book, The
Biggest Secret, first published in 1998 -- seven years before he died. I also named
him and his Chancellor of the Exchequer Anthony Barber as practicing Satanists, as
I did the leading members of the royal family. Heath was read what I said by an
excuse for a 'journalist' days after publication and he did nothing because to do so
would have had the truth exposed in court -- as it would be now if anyone from the
Thatcher cesspit wants a go. Michael Shrimpton mentions Barber in this interview
as being in league with Heath and Cabinet Secretary Hunt.

If Operations Fairbank and Fernbridge, the police investigations into political
and 'elite' paedophilia, don't not make arrests of big political and royal names so
they can be questioned under caution then it, too, will be shown to be a cover up
given the evidence that mounts all the time.

Michael Shrimpton goes on to talk about what he says happened to the abducted
little girl Madeleine McCann, the assassination of Princess Diana, the murder of
weapons expert David Kelly who could have trashed the lies used to justify the Blair
invasion of Iraq, and what Shimpton says was the murder of former British Foreign
Secretary Robin Cook.

I can't confirm what he says about Madeleine or Cook but for sure I can with
everything else with regard to Heath, Savile and the Conservative Party and
government. Nor do I agree with all of his assumptions about who was behind it all,
and certainly not that British Intelligence are the 'good guys'. But it is very
interesting information very much worth hearing.

Michael Shrimpton is the author of the book, Spyhunter, which he hopes to publish this year.

I don't hold out much hope for this going public, look at Dr.David Kelly there were loads of noted experts, doctors and forensic scientists who said that he didn't committ suicide, but look at that, it's all gone quiet.........and just like with Dunblane a home office restriction was put on the statements of those involved. It is a very murky world.

What will it take?

MSM continue to tow the line with their reporting I don't think that will ever change, I think the alternative media will take over from the main stream .... someday. But for now we're stuck with the laughable efforts of journalists writing stuff to pay the rent, the cognitive dissonance is strong in these ones, especially when you consider that they see the inside of war zones and companies that the rest of us aren't privy to. The David Icke's and Bill Ryans and many others will take over when the time comes, I just wish that time would come soon, mind you I do laugh a lot more at MSM these days it really is such a joke :biggrin:

It should be said some of the papers have been tickling some of these subjects
The Mail on line has lately. But over the years they have been cowed by law
suits and they do not have the freedom of the internet . Which no doubt TPTB
have been working on how to stifle over the last decade.

The Mirror came out this morning with an article touching on 'cover up', but
will only go so far. I think the new breed of internet journalists could bring
back the old 'Publish and be Damned' ethos of 'Fleet street' but theres no
guarentees......

Cyril Smith 'protected by a high-level Westminster paedophile ring' claims MP


Apr 16, 2014 21:06
By James Lyons


Labour’s Simon Danzcuk - who exposed Smith - claimed the Liberal grandee was
part of an “informal” network of perverts who stalked the corridors of power

Scandal: Cyril Smith


Child abuser Cyril Smith was protected by a high-level Westminster paedophile
ring, the MP who exposed him claimed.

Labour’s Simon Danzcuk said the Liberal grandee was part of an “informal” network
of perverts who stalked the corridors of power.

He said: “Had he been prosecuted, then the house of cards would have fallen, in
terms of that paedophile network, and it could have brought the government down.

“Once he became a member of Parliament in 1972, I think he joined an, obviously
informal, network of paedophiles that existed in and around Westminster.”

The claims came as fresh doubt was cast in Nick Clegg’s instance that no Liberal
Democrats knew about Smith’s activities.

Police have said Smith attended Elm Guest House in South West London, where
underage rent boys and youngsters from a children’s home were reportedly brought
to have sex with adult men.

Other high profile figures are said to have been visitors including senior MPs, a high-
ranking policeman and an MI5 officer.

Mr Danzcuk, MP for Smith’s former constituency Rochdale, says that police received
at least 144 complaints about Smith but MI5 and Special Branch pressured them
into backing off.

He claimed child abuse allegations against Smith were even raised in public at a
Liberal party conference.

Charles Baker, a former activist from the Social Democratic Party, told the BBC he
was warned by HQ that the sister party faced a scandal in 1983.

“There was this alert that one of the other parties had got hold of the fact that Cyril
Smith had interfered with boys yet again – I underline the word again,” he said.
