The Covid Inquiry Is a Shameless Cover-Up Mon Dec 11, 2023 09:00 | Richard Eldred
It increasingly appears that the Covid Inquiry, set up by the Blob, staffed and run by the Blob, sees its job as blaming the politicians and excusing the Blob, says Matt Ridley in the Telegraph.

The BBC's latest bit of alarmist drivel is that the poor olive harvests in Spain are due to man-made ?climate change?. In fact, says Chris Morrison, Olive oil production in Spain has been at record highs in recent years.

to influence public opinion.
& then consider the effect it might have had on pubic perception of those groups & individuals who were supporting the men - the crime of leaking confidential details : takes on new significance.
less than 10% of the men had spurious links to a group varyingly described in international law as "terrorist" or "unlawful combattants". Though considering the nature of the conflict in Afghanistan of the last week, some others may consider them a civil war faction. Its notable that none of the men including the 5% with alledged links to that group want to go back "& join in the bloody war".
The Garda or Civil Servant in Mc Dowell's department who broke the law, did so to manipulate public opinion and draw a link between the support groups and :- "terrorists" or "unlawful combattants".
Think about it please. Its "news"
The last time Mc Dowell leaked confidential information illegally he did so just before Christmas to effectively destroy the reputation of a journalist.
That means - 37 of the men in question, several TD's principle amongst whom is Ciaran Cuffe (green party) all of RAR & many others.
Please note there were no details of 37 other applications fo asylum published.
Last week on Tuesday I and the vice president of the "papers for everyone" campaign group, and a member of the steering comitee for the global "no borders" day of action (10th October 2006) phoned the spokesperson of the men in the cathedral to offer support, tactical advice based on experience of migrant occupations and to advise against thirst fast & offer statements and declarations of support from various European based migrant right groups. The spokesperson was in hospital at the time and not with his group, due to being blind, he could not take down teh phone numbers offered him, & so the nurse did so instead, she was ending her shift & expressed surprise that he had received a phone call from so far away.
The next day Asian migrant groups met and discussed the matter, and adopted a motion of support to be sent to the Cathedral, & I received numerous messages of support "to be passed on" from members of the Church of Ireland and Saint Patrick's extended community. Then.....
A little bird filtered to us the news that "media massage leaking" had occured, it was no longer in the interest of those who wished to express their support from far away to enter direct communication any longer with the "situation" in Dublin. So that support was restricted to "prayers / sermons" in the mosques last Friday. From Saturday last till today, I have received a total of 55 messages demanding explanation of me why I would support either the Taliban or Al Qaeda. As a marginal supported in another country of the support groups of the action, and as one who translated the news into foreign language coverage, I consider the selective and illegal leaking of confidential information in the last week may have an adverse effect on my employment chances should I ever return to Ireland.
I want an explanation.
Some may be interested to know that Minister for Justice Michael McDowell TD, together with the Director for Public Prosecutions, Mr James Hamilton, are playing the lead roles in the human rights abuse and bullying referred to in the e-mail text reproduced below (which has been copied to the European Court of Human Rights); and, that despite numerous attempts by senior social worker Mr Gerard Madden (who is based in Northern Ireland) to get a response from him, Minister McDowell continues, as far as I know, to completely - and extremely arrogantly, ignorantly, and unlawfully in my view - ignore the letter sent to him at the following address (dated November 7th 2005):

Subject: [bullyonline] "We need a major case to test Human Rights and Bullying"
Dear BullOnLine Members,
I very much agree with the following recent statement from Pierre-Joseph Proudhon:
"We need a major case to test Human Rights and Bullying" (BullyOnLine Message 62429, of May 23rd 2006).
I believe I actually have just such a case, which is well documented, and which involves a long string of very serious "human rights law" and bullying type abuses; and, I have actually sent a formal application to the European Court of Human Rights (Council of Europe) through the registered post on March 25th 2006 in connection with this case.
However, and to my great and growing dismay, I have received no reply of any kind at all from the Registrar at the European Court of Human Rights (to date) regarding his/her receipt of the set of application documents in question.
I have also sent an e-mail reminder to the Registrar of the European Court of Human Rights on April 28th 2006, plus a printed and signed copy of the e-mail in question through the normal post using the UK Royal Mail "Airsure" service (which I also sent on April 28th 2006).
Though the Royal Mail "Track and Trace" Internet service clearly indicates that my "reminder" Airsure letter was successfully "delivered in FRANCE before 10:22 on May 9th 2006" (as anyone can verify by entering the particular Royal Mail Airsure letter reference number LY225605312GB at http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/home/ ), I have still heard nothing at all in return from the Registrar of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the safe receipt of my "March 25th 2006 Application".
Needless to say, I am now growing very, very concerned regarding the mysterious and disturbing "wall of silence" I am being deliberately presented with (apparently?) by European Court of Human Rights and the Council of Europe regarding my March 25th 2006 Application - particularly when it is the case that I can very easily be contacted by e-mail (at the address I am using for this e-mail).
Detailed information relating to the application I made to the European Court of Human Rights on March 26th 2006, including a scanned copy of the Royal Mail "Priority Handling and Registered Delivery" receipt I used on that date, can be viewed at the following address:
http://www.europeancourtofhumanrightswilliamfinnerty.com/
Please note that the "Application Documents" on view at the address just above involve very severe psychological bullying over a period of several years - at the hands of public officials and bodies - and that they contain written evidence from my GP (Dr McCavert), and from a senior social worker (Mr Gerard Madden), which supports this claim. One of the "To Whom It May Concern" letters I have submitted from my GP, for example, very clearly points out that I have ended up with "PTSD Complex": as a direct result of all the trauma and abuse I have been subjected to (since around 1998). A scanned copy of this particular letter can be viewed at: http://www.europeancourtofhumanrightswilliamfinnerty.co...r.htm
I am now wondering if anyone at the "BullyOnLine" Yahoo site might have any suggestions as to where I should try to go from here - with regard to my particular case (i.e. European Court of Human Rights "Application Number: 25077/05" now on display at the address two paragraphs up) ???
I feel completely stuck at the present time.
Please note that the legal abuse I am being subjected to is so severe that I cannot even find a lawyer who is willing to advise me, let alone take on my case.
Sincerely,
William Finnerty.
very good to see. fair play to you. I didn't actually notice a single mention of "saint Patrick's", "leaking", "criminal acts by either gardaí or civil servants in relation to media massage", "implied association with Taliban" in your comment,
but you managed to deftly communicate your position nonetheless.
Good to know you're on side!!! keep writing those letters. Chip, chip, chip away at the clay pedestal of power! Sure if you don't win, you'll at least send them mad.
To reveal her sources for that Old leakage, which has lead to a weakened Taoiseach
a visibly revelling Tanaiste and a hung Dail (metaphorically, not literally)
Irish Times Journalist and editor have been summoned to reveal their source
on the leaking of things sub-judice regarding Bertie's payments. someone fed
them the info which has led to Mc Dowell holding the reins of governement
for a little while. They appear this morning, will they reveal their sources.
Howlin was forced to-
Meanwhile the Tanaiste presses ahead with the restrictive Privacy/defamation laws
which will see him control the press too.
It has come to a situation where the police/press/ and law is governed by one man
with a tiny % of the vote. Bertie really needs to bring mickey down too.
Colm Keenan and Kennedy (KK) have admitted 'burning' the source material
leading to the story on Bertie's donation.
They are claiming 'journalistic' privlege.
Like liam Lawlor burnt stuff, in his garden.......
Thus the leakage is completed, Pee Dees control the state. A weakened Taoiseach,
A bold as brass Tanaiste.
A back-bench revolt.
You couldn't make it up.
