To
Ward Hadaway solicitors, Sandgate House, 102, Quayside, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 3DX.
T.0191 204 4000. F.4001 FOR THE ATTENTION OF Mr. Lucarelli
Your Ref. (L)CAL.JW/JAK.NHS010.7
Further
& better particulars.
Also to Leeds Courthouse, for the personal attention of HH Judge Grenfell, AS DIRECTED BY HIM
1)
Please read my two letters to the Home Secretary, ‘HoSec29Sept03’ & ‘HoSec30Oct03’ (enclosed)
before reading this. They challenge the preposterous claim by the judiciary
that they have licence to commit crime with impunity, as proclaimed by the ‘great’ Lord Denning in Sirros v
Moore, CA, 1974(?), “Though (a judge) be motivated by the utmost
greed, envy, malice & all uncharitableness, he is not liable to any action”.
Those letters to Home Secretary Blunkett have (of course), been completely ignored by him, the man who wore
a poppy as he promised “We will get of ‘airy-fairy’ Human Rights” (rights for which millions of
men, including my own brave young shipmates, gave their lives).
2) In responding to your letter of 6/11/03 I use plain
language. Legalese, weasel words & Orwellian Newspeak are not appropriate.
3)
I hope the nation is horrified at the revelations in the new book ‘PRISONGATE’
of the criminality of the Prison Service. Written by Sir David Ramsbotham, 'retired'
from his post as HM Ch. Insp. of Prisons for telling the truth, he tells only a tiny part.
4)
You refer to my ‘difficulties’.
That is the understatement of the millennium. The hatred of lawyers &
judges for the Litigant In Person (& the depths to which they will sink to indulge it) is comparable to that of
Hitler, Himmler, Goebbels, Heydrich et al, for the Jews. Being Hon. Sec. of the
Litigants In Person Society, I have much more experience than just my own. Prison
Service staff have the same hatred, act as pimps for lawyers & (like the police), know they have licence to commit
any crime against the LIP.
5) You also write of ‘unfairness’ to Professor
Curran. Let he & you suffer the ‘unfairness’ inflicted on me
by this lawyer controlled Police State before you dare complain. After 60 years
of honourable service to my King, my Queen & my Country, I suffered the terror of crude assassination attempts (by
unaccountable, untouchable British Gestapo) 11 months ‘house arrest’ (imprisoned by justifiable fear);
physical brutality that put me in hospital; malicious prosecution; perjury at a grotesque ‘trial’; & - for
a first ‘offence’ at the age of 75 (then) - a ten year sentence (not six) imposed by a psychopathic
‘Judge’ David Ronald Bentley. This has been followed by incredible
physical brutality, unrelenting mental torture, starvation & sleep deprivation in a succession of sophisticated British
Belsens (it was the British who invented concentration camps).
6) Let Professor Curran give his professional opinion of
the mental state of Judge Bentley, & of Goldsack, whose malevolence is described in paras. 3 & 4 of ‘HoSec29Sept03’. You heard Judge Grenfell say, “I do not have the jurisdiction” when
I asked him to do something. Yet he admitted that he had struck out my claim
against Yorkshire Post Newspapers (LS 190 173) three months AFTER judgment in my favour. YOU know, I know, & HE knows, that no
judge in the land has jurisdiction to do that!
7) By failing to make the Order for ‘equality of arms’
(for which I have been asking for more than a year), he condones, encourages (& thus becomes party to) the
crimes against me, including obstructing the course of justice, & extreme mental torture, both subject to life imprisonment. He made the sadistic joke that I could write the documents by hand. He might as well have said a slate & piece of chalk. He
did indicate that he would contact the prison, to ensure that I was allowed to print documents from the laptop computer allowed
me. It is worthless without being able to print.
So, what HAS happened?
8) Since arrival back from court on 11/11/03 (Armistice
Day!) I have been kept in almost total isolation, other prisoners not allowed to speak to me through the locked door. The tiny amount of food I request is denied me if (at the age of 78) I do not
get out of my cell quick enough to collect it. The most monstrous lies & fiendish excuses are used to prevent me producing
or printing documents. I am not allowed to visit the library for leisure or legal
research, or visit the chapel.
9) Family
visits have been blocked, conferences with lay/legal advisers denied, telephone calls severely restricted. Promised a week ago that I would be allowed a printer in my cell, it has not happened. Showing the deadline date (4/12/03) on your letter to Senior Officer Gale, he promised that I would
be allowed access to a printer on Monday 1/12/03. Whether that will happen remains
to be seen. Whether I will be able to construct & print the documents &
catch the post remains to be seen. Whether I can retain a shred of sanity under
such diabolical treatment is doubtful.
10) Courts & Prison Service combine to drive the hated LIP victim to despair, to mental
breakdown, often to take their own lives, when it is described as ‘suicide’ instead of the very nasty form of
murder which it truly is.
11) I must say that up to your appointment of ‘specialist
counsel’ Jacob Dean, Ward Hadaway have acted professionally, & treated me with respect. It is fact that lawyers are despised all over the world, & Dean’s document
shows why. Not content with defending your client, he launches on me the lawyer’s
equivalent of Sadaam Hussein’s poison gas attacks, adding his own sneers to those of Professor Curran.
12) You say that I have not followed the Civil Procedure Rules.
Difficult. My own very expensive CD of the CPR is stored on my own computer,
which is here in this prison, but I am denied access to it!
13) You state that I have failed to ‘provide further & better particulars’.
The computer was with me at Newton Lodge & I did produce on it a document
(Ref. NewL-10Feb03) which detailed & corrected the false statements by Professor Curran. Copies of that document were delivered to J.Gardner (General Manager) & Jacqui Beaument (Corporate
Affairs Manager), both of NEWTON LODGE HOSPITAL TRUST; also to John Wiggin (Acting General Manager) & Yvonne French (Mental
Health Act Manager), both of SOUTH WEST YORKSHIRE NHS MENTAL HEALTH TRUST, all based at Fieldhead, Wakefield WF1 3SP. A copy was also sent to the GENERAL MEDICAL COUNCIL.
I cannot believe that one or other of them did not provide a copy to Professor Curran.
It DID provide ‘further & better particulars’.
14) That document too is on my own computer (stored in this prison), & it would be a simple
matter to produce another copy to send to you but, as stated above, I am denied access to it.
Instead I must summon up my flagging strength, forced to work through the night (as I am doing now), doing the
work again, trying to meet your deadline – at an age when I should be enjoying a well-earned
retirement!

15) Professor Curran’s Report (7/1/03) could win a prize as a work of fiction. It is not surprising that he ignored my requests for a copy (also ignoring my several requests for the
return of the ‘Testimonials’ document I loaned him).
It is
diabolical that I should have to waste my precious time refuting his monstrous lies, garbage & jargon, larded with pompous
arrogance & impertinence. I
list below some of the more blatant falsehoods in his Report:
a) “He was not willing to tell
me anything about his past …”. FACT:
The ‘Testimonials’ document quotes from about 51 testimonials, chronicling 60 years of my life from the
age of 17. I told him that if he doubted the provenance of the quotes, copies
of the originals were available for his inspection. Though he appeared to be
reading the document in the Ward Office, his ‘Report’ indicates that not one word penetrated his brain.
b) “… apart from the fact
that he had a ‘constant battle with the medical profession’ …”.
FACT:
Monstrously
untrue. Fortunate to have had good health, I have had minimal contact
with doctors for myself, with no complaints whatsoever, & nothing but admiration for the GPs, hospital doctors & nurses
who have treated my parents & relatives over the years.
c) “… he believes that all
doctors are corrupt”. FACT: See above.
d) “I was subjected to a monologue
about ‘the system trying to keep me quiet’.” FACT: I never complain about ‘the system’.
On the contrary, the one point I constantly make is that apologists for the few scoundrels who
are caught out, excuse & absolve them by blaming all faults on ‘the system’.
e) “On mental examination (for
perhaps 8 minutes) his hair was uncombed & slightly unkempt & he had a slightly eccentric appearance. He was wearing sandals without socks”. FACT: What has that to do with anything? What would he have
made of Mahatma Gandhi? Anyone who is not a sheep is labeled ‘eccentric’.
f) “He told me … there was
no-one at Newton Lodge who who was ‘fit to assess me’, & I interpreted this to mean of the appropriate intellectual
calibre”. FACT: ALL
his ‘interpretations’ are wildly inaccurate – especially this one.
See below.
g) “… his ideas were clearly
grandiose … his beliefs about his own superior intellect …”. Fact: I have no ‘delusions of grandeur’ about my own intellect. I left school at 13, & apart from fighting against the evil of Hitler, have been a small farmer most
of my life. Though I would never have done so up till 8th August 1999,
where I now DO claim superiority is in conscience, integrity, courage & my contribution to this nation
– far superior to that of Curran.
h) “He told me that he had not
made decision about my ability”. FACT: His
only true statement. I hoped for the best from him, but it was soon obvious that
his arrogance was a cover for his incompetence. Even so, I was prepared to give
him a chance.
i)
“He
was extremely preoccupied with his rights, & the rights of other people, & bringing about change”.
FACT: What on earth is wrong with that? Was it not true of Mahatma Gandhi, the Suffragettes, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, et al? The preoccupations which Curran accuses me of are certainly more worthy than those of his chums, who are
preoccupied only with pumping me full of drugs by force.
j)
“I reviewed
him … on 31st December 2002. I also had an opportunity to read
his medical notes & discuss his progress with members of staff”. FACT: I have ‘reviewed’ a cow in a field better when passing on a train,
but he was able to produce two pages of garbage from his imaginative ‘science’.
k) “… he was extremely negative
& derogatory about the medical profession”. FACT: See b) & c) above, & see later.
l)
“…
some of his ideas … would just meet the criteria for delusional beliefs”. FACT: While at Newton Lodge I kept asking for a copy of a page from the medical textbook
‘Diagnostic Statistical Manual’ (DSM-V). It was promised, but never
received, so I am forced to rely on memory. It says words to the effect that
‘Anyone who seeks a remedy for an injustice in the courts of Britain is suffering from paranoid delusions’. Honest – it does! I couldn’t
have put it better myself! By that criteria, until the age of 70 I DID
suffer from delusional beliefs! .
m) “He does not like rules”.
FACT: Nobody in the land is more committed
to the most important ‘rule’ - the Rule of Law! My commitment is
in memory of my brave young shipmates who were maimed, dead & dying around me by the score 60 years ago, when we fighting
to preserve the Rule of Law, along with Freedom, Justice & Democracy. They
died in vain, all are gone from modern Britain. We now have the Rule of Law-yers. They have achieved absolute power, & will destroy anyone
(big or small) they see as a threat to that power.
n) It is when I see the rules, &
the law, flouted so contemptuously by those who run our courts, prisons & ‘secure hospitals’,
that I become ‘extremely cantankerous’ & ‘irritable’ – as the culprits have described me. It is not only my right, but my duty to denounce such crime.
o) Re. b), c) & k): ‘constant
battle with the medical profession’, “… he believes that
all doctors are corrupt”, “extremely negative & derogatory about
the medical profession”. As stated, I never had anything but respect
for the medical profession – until arriving at Newton Lodge! I had heard
it said that psychiatry was the refuge of those without the skills needed for the more demanding medical disciplines, able
to do little more than remember the jargon, & to give ‘uppers’ & ‘downers’ alternatively.
p) My ‘constant battle’
did not start until very late in life, it was not a battle, but a search – to find an honest lawyer
(until the age of 70 I believed, as I had been taught all my life, that our judges & our legal system were ‘the
finest in the world’): It was not against the
medical profession, but against the ‘fraudsters in the legal system’. They
DO exist – ask Paul Boateng MP!
q) In a letter dated 3/7/95 (when
he was Legal Affairs Spokesman for the Labour Party, then in opposition) he wrote, “We will put an end to fraud
in the legal system”. He forgot his promise, did nothing, & now holds
high Cabinet Office. I DID do something - & am to die
in prison – while the fraudsters continue their wicked ways!
r) Malice? Why should anyone tells such lies, apart from malice – & why against me? Initially he may only have been anxious to give support to a professional colleague, but the fact that
I did not grovel on our first meeting undoubtedly upset him, & he determined to get his own back! It is possible to ‘condemn with faint praise’. It
is also possible to ‘condone with faint criticism’, & Professor Curran’s ‘advice’ to Dr.
Quinn (not to use force to inject me) was in such faint terms as to be positive encouragement.
Dr. Quinn accepted it as such, as shown by the words in one of his Reports, repeated from the witness box in Sheffield
Crown Court. To give The Devil his due, Dr. Quinn (whether from good or bad
motives) DID try to save me from the psychopaths who run our prisons.
See paras. 3 & 4 of document ‘Hosec29Sept03’.
THE FACTS IN THIS WITNESS STATEMENT
are true to the best of my recollection, knowledge & belief.
