Perversion of justice, corruption, fraud and the lack of accountability of the British government

Held under the
auspices of the ex-DPM (John Prescott), and conducted on behalf of the
ex-Attorney General (Lord Goldsmith), the Re-opened Formal Investigation (RFI)
into the sinking of the trawler Gaul, in which 36 men lost their lives,
commenced in 2004.

At the end of a year long examination of the case, the presiding
judge, justice David Steel, concluded that the cause for the loss of the Gaul
had been crew error/ negligence.

Prior to this, in 2002, the UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency
(MCA), in collaboration with the Maritime Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB),
had found, however, that a design fault in the construction of the vessel could
have been, in fact, a likely cause for its loss. This possibility was given
further credence when the underwater survey of the wreck, in July 2002, brought
to light fresh evidence.

Yet, the design defect scenario was never taken into account by
the RFI’s investigators or even mentioned during the formal proceedings (Had
a design fault been confirmed as the cause for the tragedy, the victims’
families would have been in the position to sue for substantial compensation.
The official conclusion, unfortunately, barred them from taking this course of
action).

After the publication of the final report of the RFI, the MCA’s
naval architect, who had initially identified faults in the construction of the
Gaul, realised that the evidence presented during the formal inquiry, the
witness testimonies and the overall conduct of the investigation had been
manoeuvred towards a pre-determined conclusion - a conclusion which,
coincidently, suited the government’s interests.

As a result of his research and opinions, the MCA expert became
the target of a state-sponsored campaign of intimidation and harassment (i.e. a
phenomenon known as ‘gangstalking’) - situation that has been going on for five
years and continues to this day.

It is now obvious that, although the suppression of evidence in a
public inquiry was a risky business, those in power – comfortably installed in
the conviction that they had the ability to crush the inconvenient ‘small guy’
and take care of any other loose ends – decided to do it anyway. And this
decision was taken two years before the opening of the formal investigation

The reason for his harassment, our expert is in no doubt, is his
knowledge, acquired evidence and willingness to expose a case which indicated
both high-level corruption and conspiracy to defraud the families of those who
have lost their lives on the Gaul.

The government, however, acting in mafia-like style, were
determined to contain, at all costs, any disclosures that would put in jeopardy
the very top of the Blair government and the new British Establishment.

Aware of the political fallout that could still occur should the
wrongdoings and cover-up be publicly revealed, the Brown government continued
to perpetrate the injustice, thus becoming themselves accomplices to the fraud.

The mainstream media, it seems, have been persuaded into silence;
the Attorney General’s office, the Department for Transport, MAIB, the
Admiralty Judge, MPs, the Serious Fraud Office, the Police and many other
supposedly independent organisations, likewise, have declined to be involved.

Thus, the political power has proven once again that it has become
unaccountable, immune from prosecution and can no longer be
opposed by any other power.
Britain is now a lawless country.
