All who sneered at those who spoke of ‘reds under the bed’ in the sixties and seventies have now had their eyes opened! Furthermore, history will show that this country is still heavily infiltrated and influenced by Marxists, many of whom make up the present government. Their aim has been the breakdown of British Society and of Great Britain as a world power.Have hey succeeded???

Spies like us: Labour crony Jack Jones sold secrets to the KGB for 45 yearsThe lights burned late at the headquarters of the KGB in Moscow’s Lubyanka Square.
The Cold War remained icy, the fall of the Berlin Wall was six years away and in Britain, Tory Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was about to win a landslide victory against old-style socialism.
No one was watching the political drama unfolding at the time in Spring 1983 more closely than the portly KGB boss, Viktor Chebrikov.
He drummed his beefy fingers on the oak desk in his third-floor office before firing off a series of coded telegrams to his team of spies operating undercover from the Russian Embassy in London’s Kensington Gardens.
For square-jawed Chebrikov, there were two urgent questions to which he needed answers: would a second election triumph for Mrs Thatcher crush the trades unions which had cosied up to Russia for three decades; and what would happen to the defeated Labour Party’s pledge to rid Britain of nuclear weapons?
Chebrikov knew a man who could provide both answers – someone living out his retirement in a suburban council flat who had been a Kremlin mole for 45 years.
Ever since 1938, this spy had sent messages to Moscow containing secrets of the goings-on at the heart of the British government.
Chebrikov therefore ordered Oleg Gordievsky, a newly arrived KGB colonel in charge of espionage and intelligence-gathering in London, to contact the mole.
A few days later, at a back table in a small Italian restaurant in London, the two men sat down to talk. Forty-five-year-old Gordievsky was, unknown to Moscow, already a double agent working for Britain’s secret services.
Disenchanted with Communism, he would later – as suspicion fell on him – become the highest level defector to be spirited by MI6 from behind the Iron Curtain to the West.
He remembers the Italian lunch well. ‘My contact was not a cultured or even an intelligent man,’ he told the Mail yesterday.
‘He was a dogmatic Communist who felt he had a sacred duty to help Soviet Russia. He had worked for the KGB for years without many in government suspecting a thing.’
So who was this shadowy figure? He was, in fact, Jack Jones, the firebrand union leader who was this week exposed as a KGB agent.
During Labour Governments in the Sixties and Seventies, the former Liverpool docker rose to lead the huge Transport and General Workers’ Union (TGWU) and, significantly, became head of the Trades’ Union Congress’ International Committee, allowing him to travel freely behind the Iron Curtain.

In those days, when union leaders enjoyed beer-and-sandwich meetings at No 10, Jones had only to snap his fingers and the Government clicked its heels.
After all, Comrade Jack had the ability to call his two million members on strike and bring the country to a halt. He was once named in a public vote as the most powerful man in Britain.
Nicknamed ‘the Emperor’ by other union bosses, he reputedly held more sway over Labour Prime Ministers Harold Wilson and Jim Callaghan than even the favourites in their own Cabinets.
And, perhaps with an eye to the future, one of his proteges was Gordon Brown, then an upandcoming socialist sponsored as a Westminster MP by Jones’s TGWU.
Little wonder that when Jack Jones died at 96 earlier this year, The Guardian wrote: ‘His power and influence was immense. He never shifted from his commitment to socialist ideals . . . but always with an unflinching integrity.’
Gordon Brown described him as the ‘world’s greatest trade union leader’.
Keith Norman, of the railway workers’ organisation ASLEF, said: ‘If anyone deserved a state funeral, it would be Jack. And the best thing about him is, he would have turned it down.’
Yes, this week it was finally disclosed in the official history of the Security Services that Comrade Jack was suspected of passing confidential information to the Communist Party. MI5 had a secret file on his activities and the KGB regarded him as an ‘agent’.
According to Christopher Andrew’s new book, The Defence Of The Realm, the MI5 director general, Sir Martin Furnival Jones, was deeply suspicious of the union leader’s links with the Soviets.
Fist pumping: Jack Jones makes a point at a rally on unemployment at Central Hall, London in 1971.The new book reveals that Jones, a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) in the Thirties and Forties, was in ‘active and regular’ contact with his former political party.
As a result, MI5 eavesdropped on the CPGB headquarters in London in August 1969. During the bugging, the party’s chief industrial organiser was heard to claim: ‘It has become clear that [Jones] is prepared to give the party [the CPGB] government and other information which has been passed to him confidentially in his trade union capacity.’
In 1970, MI5 was still worried about Jones. With the permission of the incoming Tory Prime Minister Edward Heath, officers began to bug his personal telephone calls. They suspected he was being ‘manipulated by the Russians, or was at least under their strong influence’.
This investigation – according to the files – finally concluded that Jones’s bugged conversations revealed ‘not merely no sign of a continuing Soviet connection, but also positive evidence of growing distance between him and the CPGB.’
But do the files tell the whole story about a man who had left school at 14, worked on the Liverpool docks, was self-taught through a correspondence course from that citadel of Marxist ideology, Oxford’s Ruskin College, and who refused both a knighthood and a seat in the Lords?
Certainly, the now retired Oleg Gordievsky believes Jones remained a traitor to his country until the end of his life.
And an investigation by the Mail points to the treachery of both Jones and his radical feminist wife, Evelyn, who was a dyed-in-the-wool Communist.
We have talked to former Soviet agents in London and in Moscow, and have been told three files, of 300 pages each, detailing his deception over half a century now lie in the KGB archive in Moscow.
The KGB received confidential Labour Government plans for nuclear disarmament, military secrets, the private opinions of Harold Wilson and Jim Callaghan, and – crucially – the names of those in politics and the unions whom Comrade Jack believed might help the Communist cause
People who have seen those files reveal that they include a record of the cash payments handed over to him, and the times and places of his meetings with Soviet agents (some, incredibly, over tea and cakes served by Evelyn at the couple’s council flat in Dulwich, South London).
Given the codename ‘Dream’ by the Soviets, he leaked an extraordinary catalogue of secrets to the Russians.
The KGB received confidential Labour Government plans for nuclear disarmament, military secrets, the private opinions of Harold Wilson and Jim Callaghan, and – crucially – the names of those in politics and the unions whom Comrade Jack believed might help the Communist cause.
Notably, the files are said to contain slurs about people in every position of British public life – including key figures in the Armed Forces, MI5 and MI6.
Jones believed that those smears could be used to blackmail them into working for Moscow.
‘Their misdemeanours, affairs, trysts and financial troubles are all there,’ explained our Soviet sources.
A further file is lodged in the archives of Moscow’s Comintern, the international Communist organisation set up by anarchists in 1919, two years after the Russian Revolution, to fight ‘by all available means, including armed force’ for the abolition of the bourgeoisie worldwide’.
These documents detail how Jones was recruited as a spy at 25 during the Spanish Civil War and was encouraged in his beliefs by his wife, who for years was also an informant for the KGB.
Anatoly Prokopenko, former Deputy Chairman of the Russian Presidential Archives Commission, told the Mail: ‘I have seen the file with Jack Jones’s name written on it. There are, however, Comintern matters which are still being kept secret, even in today’s Russia.’
So how did Jack Jones turn into a Communist collaborator?
He was first recruited to Communism by Comintern cadres sent from Moscow to the killing fields of the Spanish Civil War in 1938. Jones was fighting with the British battalion of the International Brigade, a rag-tag group of 1,800 Left-wingers and Liberals opposed to fascism, which was about to engulf Spain.
He was injured during the International Brigade’s attempt to take a hill from the fascists in the Battle of Ebro. Shot through the shoulder by shrapnel, he spent six weeks in a field hospital before being sent back to England.
It was there, as he lay recovering, that some of the men from Moscow managed to persuade him to become a Soviet spy.
Jones may have been an easy target. His political views had already been influenced by a friend and ardent communist, the Irish-born Mancunian George Brown, who was stabbed to death by fascists while lying wounded on the roadside during the Civil War.
Double life: Former General Secretary of the Transport and General Workers Union Jack Jones pictured in April 1997 at his office in Transport House, South-West LondonOn his return to Britain, Jones visited Brown’s widow, Evelyn, a Manchester factory worker and union activist who had joined the Communist Party in 1931. They fell in love and married.
Evelyn shared Jack’s Communist ideals. Unusually, she had worked in Moscow in the late Thirties, as an assistant in the finance department of Comintern.
She later became a Comintern courier, using her British passport to travel from Moscow with messages for the clandestine Communist Parties and anti-fascist organisations of Germany and Italy.
On her return to England, she began to pass secrets to Moscow from Britain.
Former KGB man Oleg Gordievsky takes up the tale. He says: ‘I first heard Jones’s name just before I was first posted to London in 1982.
‘I was told that he was very, very useful to us. He had helped us a lot in the past. One agent from the technological section at the Russian Embassy had made a particular friend of him.
‘I read the KGB files on Jack Jones before I arrived. I saw that he was recruited in Spain and had worked for us while moving up in the trades’ union movement in the Midlands and then in London.
‘I was told stay in touch, but it was some time before I was first introduced to him.
‘I was taken to his flat by the agent in the technological section, who had been passed secrets by Jones about a new optical sight for rifles being developed secretly by Britain.
‘I was still quite new to London, and my English was not good. I got in the officer’s car and we drove in circles around the streets so we were not followed by the secret services who watched everyone leaving the Embassy.
‘Finally, we arrived at this little council place across the Thames in South London and were let in immediately by Jack Jones and Evelyn.
‘They greeted us warmly. They were completely at ease with the officer. It was obvious he was old friends with Jack and Evelyn. They knew they were among their own sort,’ recalls Gordievsky, now 70.
‘Evelyn was right on the line and a deeply committed Communist. She had worked in the north of England and the Midlands, but by the mid-Fifties Moscow decided it was dangerous to have links with British agents who were so openly pro-Soviet. They stopped running her.’
But Russia never gave up on Jack Jones. It was just a month before the 1983 General Election – which would see Margaret Thatcher winning a second term, with the biggest landslide for any political party since Labour in 1945 – when Gordievsky received the famous coded telegram from Moscow ordering him to see Jones again.
‘I saw from the files that he’d been taking money from the KGB for 35 to 40 years,’ former KGB man Oleg Gordievsky
They met in the Fulham Road. Jack, with Evelyn in a smart dress on his arm, was wearing his trademark flat cap.
‘I remember he led me to an Italian restaurant about 40 yards off the main road. On the way, I pointed to a pub and suggested we stopped there to eat.
But Jack said that we must go to a nicer place. He gave me a brochure of trades’ union leaders, and we talked about the election and what it would mean for socialism and Labour.
‘When I said goodbye, I gave him £200. He looked pleased. He obviously had no scruples about taking the money.
‘I saw from the files that he’d been taking money from the KGB for 35 to 40 years.’
There was one final meeting between Gordievsky and Jack Jones, again in Fulham, soon after the 1983 General Election.
Defeated Labour leader Michael Foot had been replaced by Neil Kinnock.
The KGB were desperate to find out if he was planning to continue the party’s anti-nuclear policy, even though the Tories were in power.
Jones told Gordievsky – over another lavish lunch – to tell the KGB hierarchy that Kinnock would continue with his CND ideals.
‘When I passed that information on to Moscow, they were ecstatic,’ remembers Gordievsky.
For the past two decades, Jack Jones was lionised as the grand old man of the Left. But then, before his death, disturbing rumours of his deception began to circulate.
The old union boss responded by insisting that such stories about him being a Soviet spy were a ‘farrago of lies’, and threatened to sue anyone who spoke of them.
He never did take legal action, but it was enough to silence the tongues.
Only now is the truth about Comrade Jones beginning to emerge with the new history of MI5.
But perhaps the depths of his treachery will only really be known when the explosive secrets files on this British spy are one day made public in Moscow.
Surely this is no surprise. In a few years some one will unearth the orders from the Kremlin for the Labour Prime Ministers of that tIme.
Was it not an accepted reality that Labour Poloiticians and Union Leaders often went to the East for a ‘Holiday’ to pick up there sealed orders?

Might explain why Brown has destroyed Britain.
He’s done a better job of it than Jones tried, and than Russia would have done.

In the 60′s there were more Russians at branch meetings than workers telling us all, how nice it was in Russia.
Why are you not telling us the names of the rest plus the current ones in the labour government and at cabinet level,
Some times its husbands or wives who are the agent’s of Russia.
what you already know that there are 5 shop stewards in the government

Soviet lovers of ours – how disillusioned they must have become when they
realised what a monster Stalin was, and that they had spent their lives
supporting such a system which kept the “workers” subjugated for years,
until Gorbachev let the cat out of the bag and broke-up the Soviet Bloc!
Perhaps MAX would have preferred to send Gorbachev to the Gulag instead?

The International Brigade, of which Jones was a member, were a awful group of Communists who wanted to sell Spain to Stalin.
It should be remember that some galant Britons fought on the side of General Franco along with brave Italian and German volunteers. These were not ‘fascists’ but good Christian Patriots seeking to save Spain from Communism.

A book I read about his life (probably autobiography) made him out as a decent chap. Just speed reading this it seems he only sold his opinions, not much secret stuff. Unless he gave them the building code regulations. Its the Russian government who are slime. I am against all trade with them. If a spy had asked me I might have told him. Maybe treat all Russians as spies. I’m serious!! That includes the porn girls.

I suspect that he was one of many socialist that did Britain a mis- service.
It was a known fact, that Russia many years ago gave british unions money.
This is why British Socialist can never be trusted to democratically govern Britian.

That just shows what sort of naive idiots we allow ourselves to be governed by. To most people none of this is any surprise at all. Half the counrtry back then, if asked to lay bets, would have put good money on him being one of Moscow’s stooges.
For that matter, when I first joined the Army, Healey was Defence Minister and had been in the Communist Party. It was rumoured that there were certain components in the (then) new Chieftain tanks which were to be “removed” should the depot ever get a Ministerial visit…..

TRAITOR BANK- TRAITOR BANKERS!
HOW WAR DEBTS ARE JUGGLED
People who urge that the present disastrous financial policy of needless debt and taxation should be abolished in order to allow the British peoples to win this war FOR THEMSELVES, in the shortest possible time, are sneered at by our financial “‘experts,” who tell us that “we must pay the cost of the war.”
I agree. But the real cost of a war is the sacrifice in men and materials. This cost is paid as the war is fought.
Under the present financial swindle the people are sacrificed in order to pay financial tribute in the form of taxation for all time. To ask men and their families to pay the interest bill for all time on the materials they used to defend themselves is little short of treachery. Those who think that we should be sacrificed to an insane financial policy at the end of the war might note that Britain, during the last war, actually increased her assets by 25 per cent. This was done in spite of the millions of men taken out of production and doing the fighting in France. When these men had won the military conflict, they came back to civil life and started producing further goods.
In 1919 Britain possessed the greatest industrial machine in the world. She was in the position to give her people the highest standard of living the world has yet seen – in fact, a land really fit for heroes to live in. But, as we have seen previously, while the British people were standing up to the German military machine, the financiers were plotting to obtain ever a greater control of the nation. No wonder that William Jennings Bryan, the famous American statesman, once said: “The money power preys upon the nation in times of peace and conspires against it in times of adversity.”
We should always remember the sinister Cunliffe Committee, and its recommendations to put Britain back on the gold standard after the war. Dealing with these recommendations, Mr. A. N. Field, the New Zealand writer, has stated: “The recommendation of the Cunliffe Committee was ‘for the maintenance of a complete and effective gold standard.’ In plain language, this simply meant that the enormous debt incurred in 8/- and 10/- pounds should be paid back in 20/- pounds. The nation was saddled with a debt more than ten times that existing in pre-war days, in nominal value; but in actual value, in consequence of. the depreciation in the purchasing power of the pound, about five times the pre-war debt. This committee recommended that the load on the back of the people should be doubled by a restoration of the pound to the value it had possessed before the banks had lowered its value by lending thousands of millions of imaginary money.
To realise the enormous fraud which was perpetrated by this juggling with money it is sufficient to take one example. An important item in munitions manufacture was copper. A good deal of this was purchased from the United States. In a publication at hand it is stated that the average price for copper in the United States during the ten years preceding the war was 16.2-3 cents per pound; the war price was 27 cents per pound. Commodities bought with 8/- and 10/- pounds at wartime prices of this sort were lumped in the huge bill tied round the nation’s neck, to be paid off in 20/- pounds. In the words of Mr. Reginald McKenna, in his annual address as chairman of the Midland Bank at this time, the whole proceeding was ‘repugnant to every principle of equity and economic propriety.’
Dealing with the recommendations of the Cunliffe Committee in a series of articles in the London “Times” from May to October 1918, Mr. Arthur Kitson said: ” . . . The nation should be on its guard to see that the war debt is not enhanced by some jugglery with our legal tender after the war. . . . The method is so insidious and can be accomplished so easily that the public may be cheated before they are aware of it. The war debt has been incurred in cheap pounds, and honest dealing requires repayment in pounds and commodities of the same value as when the debt was incurred.
To raise the value of money after the war is an old trick of the financiers. . . . At all costs a repetition of such jugglery should be prevented.”

How will you enforce your banking code ?
The banking code will have the force of law with heavy penalties attaching to it. Any banker who breaks the law will go where the poor go to-day when they break the Law. As most bankers prefer the luxury of their present apartments to a sojourn in gaol, very few will break the law. Furthermore, the worst offenders will already have been deported as falling within the category of Jews who have grossly abused the hospitality of Britain.
Will the depositors’ money be safe in the Banks and the Post Office ?
Far safer than at present. The Banks now use your money abroad in every wild-cat scheme for financing foreign countries, and many a mess they have got themselves and your money into as a result. Under Fascism, British funds will have to be used for British purposes alone. Your money will be far safer at home than abroad. Then you will know what is being done with it. Fascism wants to see capital in as many hands as possible. The small investor and individual savings will be its special care. Further control and regulation of the Stock Exchange will prevent the small investor being fleeced, as at present.
Do you suggest that this country can grow all its own foodstuffs ?
I am certain that we can produce in Britain all the foodstuffs now imported from foreign countries to the extent of nearly £200,000,000 a year, with few exceptions, such as Manitoba hard wheat, which we can obtain from Canada.
I have addressed farmers’ meetings through Great Britain, and have not yet found a single farmer to deny that British Farming could even double its production provided Fascism affords it a stable market and an economic price. This we do (1) by excluding foreign foodstuffs ; (2) by raising the purchasing power of the population which affords the market; (3) by eliminating excessive distribution costs.

80 million plus in Britain—more power-more water- more services etc etc etc…
Sound like sensible policy- or SABOTAGE?
We pay-out more in benefits than we collect in TAXES…..SOUND POLICY?
What bothers me is that the current government is composed of people who, as young men, agreed to infiltrate the establishment to create the chaos required for revolution. These people were traitors, they were not acting in good faith when they started out and only a fool would believe that they are acting in good faith now.
See The roots of New Labour for more information on the communist affiliations of our government.
Good to see your not fooled John, there are more and more joining us daily to the evil treasonous filth that calls itself the British government [BASTARDS]

The Roots of New Labour
The past lives of Labour Ministers have long been sanitised and many biographies that include their shady communist and Marxist pasts are inaccessible or removed from the net. The truth about these guys is similar to discovering that leading Tories were members of the Nazi Party.
The strangest aspect of this affair is that the British Intelligence Services were riddled with KGB agents and communists yet the electorate has a problem understanding that the whole of the British Left was and is infiltrated by people who are slyly acting in bad faith, against the interests of the population. Outside of security and defence you can’t be arrested for being a secret psychopathic maoist or trotskyist even if you are Home Secretary. The colleagues of these subversives know there is a problem and have tried to warn us.
Peter Mandelson:
“Mr Mandelson was born into a Labour family – his grandfather was a Labour Cabinet minister Herbert Morrison – but he rebelled and joined the Young Communist League after Labour supported the United States’ intervention in Vietnam. It was during this period that he attracted the well-documented attention of the MI5 intelligence service.”
BBC Biography
John Reid (one time Northern Ireland Secretary):
“I have known John Reid as a Communist, as a member of the Scottish Labour party and now as a general in the New Labour Army. His march across this ideological battlefield has been seamless with not a hint of embarrassment. But John is an able person, one of the most able in New Labour’s high command. They put him up to deliver the message. And they are right, he is a very capable, articulate figure,” said George Galloway, the Labour MP for Glasgow Kelvin.

Mr Clarke was president of the NUS from 1975 to 1977 before becoming a councillor in Hackney from 1980 to 1986. Interestingly, as a radical Marxist he spent a year in Cuba, organising the 1978 World Youth Festival, which was also attended by future New Labour modernisers Peter Mandelson, Paul Boateng and Fiona McTaggart.”

Jack Straw:
Joined Labour Party at 14!
According to his own letter in the Independent newspaper Jack Straw is a Self avowed stalinist .
President National Union of Students 1972.
A quote from someone who knew him at that time:
“Novelty and staying power were combined only in the third kind of student politics, student unionism. This did not really exist before 1968-9. Its arrival was signalled by the election of Jack Straw to the presidency of the National Union of Students in 1969 at the head of a slate backed by something in the shadows called the ‘Left Caucus’. And its existence was consolidated by the election of Digby Jacks as Straw’s successor in 1971. Jacks was (and was widely known to be) a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain, and the guiding force in the ‘Left Caucus’ from the outset was the CPGB. The CPGB’s success in getting first Straw and then Jacks elected to
the NUS presidency established student unionism as a form of student politics with serious leftwing political pretensions; it gave to student unionism a gravitational pull on ambitious leftwing students which it had never previously had, and it forced IS and the IMG to reorient themselves to student unionism to counter the CPGB’s success in this arena, although their presence in it merely reinforced the CPGB’s influence.”

Labour’s leadership and student politics
Official: Born in Essex in August 1946, Jack Straw went to Private Brentwood School. He then read law at Leeds University and qualified to practice as a barrister. He worked as a barrister until 1974. From 1974-77 he worked as a political advisor to Labour governments. He then worked as a television journalist until 1979.

Biography
Self declared Stalinist Jack Straw said after Blair’s New World Order speech at the 2001 Labour Conference that “the day of the nation state is over”,and that the biggest threat to the UK is “English Nationalism” so continuing a policy of treason against the people of England.
Links with Old Labour
It has recently been discovered that many Old Labour supporters were truly KGB agents.
Jack Jones and Alec Kitson
Jack Jones, head of the TUC, during the turbulent 1970s was a Soviet agent. See KGB Colonel says he paid Jack Jones, Jack Jones worked for KGB , Union boss sold secrets to KGB and Reaching through the iron curtain. This might seem innocuous but the unions bankrolled Labour and labour MPs are usually trained within the unions.

Jenny Little, the secretary of Labour NEC’s International Committee was working with the Soviets.
A quote from the Observer article:
“The Observer, August 25, 2002 The old communists of New Labour by Peter Oborne:
(clip) The influence of the Communist Party on New Labour has been neglected. One day it will be an important subject for a dissertation or PhD by a university graduate. It is not merely the case that a significant number of figures in the Government machine – John Reid, David Triesman, Peter Mandelson, Charlie Whelan to name a few – belonged to the Communist Party of Great Britain in all its King Street grandeur. Many others – Stephen Byers and Alan Milburn among them – were connected in one way or another with the obscure sub-Marxist organisations that abounded in the 1970s, doing their best to tear down capitalism. Even those, like Jack Straw, who had no Marxist sympathies at all, were obliged to come to terms with communist methods and adversaries in the shadowy internecine struggles of the 1970s and 1980s. It is these methods – as opposed to the now despised Marxist dogma about ownership of the means of production – that have endured to influence the Blair Government. Millbank admittedly borrowed its technology – rebuttal units, the Excalibur computer etc – from the United States. But the obsessive secrecy, centralisation and intolerance of dissent which were such overwhelming characteristics of the Millbank operation reek of the CPGB. David Triesman was a significant figure of the Euro-communist movement of the 1970s, an attempt to give communism a ‘human face’. Thirty years on and he is attempting a comparable exercise with New Labour. It turns out that 2002 is New Labour’s climacteric year. If Clarke and Triesman succeed, and a thousand flowers bloom, they will secure Labour’s
position as the natural party of government for decades to come. If they fail, they will make the party ungovernable and sow the seeds of long-term decline.”

In the 1970s, during the formative years of the New Labour elite, the Soviet Embassy used to provide Socialist Societies in British Universities with information packs on how to foment revolution. The key policy in these packs was the destruction of national morale and culture and the encouragement of mass immigration was an explicit objective. See London needs immigrants Labour wanted mass migration – as Neather says “I remember coming away from some discussions with the clear sense that the policy was intended – even if this wasn’t its main purpose – to rub the Right’s nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date.”

LETS GUESS WHO AND WHAT CAUSED THE FINANCIAL CRASH= COMMIES!!
jOHN- EDWARD HEATH + ROY JENKINS- BOTH WERE NAZI’S!!
Having, as we and others see it, long since won the intellectual arguments against Britain’s continuing membership of this geopolitical collectivism experiment, we have been apt to question among ourselves the reasons for all our overwhelming decisive practical arguments being officially ignored, at least for public consumption purposes. Many suggestions have been put forward, but none seems conclusive.
With the death in July 2005 of Sir Edward Heath, who negotiated Britain’s accession to the European Communities (now The European Union, which we always refer to as the European Union Collective, this being a more accurate description) all has suddenly become clear. And the TRUTH is shocking, and will shock most of those who read this report, and the large number of those in sensitive quarters who also read this publication.
Within a few days of Heath’s death on 17th July 2005 at the age of 89, the Editor of this service received two separate comfirmations both from British Intelligence sources, that Edward Heath was a long-term agent of German (Nazi) intelligence. In fact Edward Heath betrayed his country for 60 years-the longest penetration in history.

To the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolshevik)
We appeal to you, asking you to pay a minimum of attention to our request. We are prisoners who are returning from the Solovetsky concentration camp because of our poor health.
We went there full of energy and good health, and now we are returning as invalids, broken and crippled emotionally and physically.
We are asking you to draw your attention to the arbitrary use of power and the violence that reign at the Solovetsky concentration camp in Kemi and in all sections of the concentration camp.
It is difficult for a human being even to imagine such terror, tyranny, violence, and lawlessness. When we went there, we could not conceive of such a horror, and now we, crippled ourselves, together with several thousands who are still there, appeal to the ruling center of the Soviet state to curb the terror that reigns there.
As though it weren’t enough that the Unified State Political Directorate [OGPU] without oversight and due process sends workers and peasants there who are by and large innocent (we are not talking about criminals who deserve to be punished), the former tsarist penal servitude system in comparison to Solovky had 99% more humanity, fairness, and legality.
[...] People die like flies, i.e., they die a slow and painful death; we repeat that all this torment and suffering is placed only on the shoulders of the proletariat without money, i.e., on workers who, we repeat, were unfortunate to find themselves in the period of hunger and destruction accompanying the events of the October Revolution, and who committed crimes only to save themselves and their families from death by starvation. They have already borne the punishment for these crimes, and the vast majority of them subsequently chose the path of honest labor. Now because of their past, for whose crime they have already paid, they are fired from their jobs.
Yet, the main thing is that the entire weight of this scandalous abuse of power, brute violence, and lawlessness that reign at Solovky and other sections of the OGPU concentration camp is placed on the shoulders of workers and peasants; others, such as counterrevolutionaries, profiteers and so on, have full wallets and have set themselves up and live in clover in the Soviet State, while next to them, in the literal meaning of the word, the penniless proletariat dies from hunger, cold, and back-breaking 14-16 hour days under the tyranny and lawlessness of inmates who are the agents and collaborators of the [Jewish] State Political Directorate [GPU].
If you complain or write anything (“Heaven forbid”), they will frame you for an attempted escape or for something else, and they will shoot you like a dog. They [Jews] line us up naked and barefoot at 22 degrees below zero and keep us outside for up to an hour. It is difficult to describe all the chaos and terror that is going on in Kemi, Solovky, and the other sections of the concentrations camp. All annual inspections uncover a lot of abuses. But what they discover in comparison to what actually exists is only a part of the horror and abuse of power, which the inspection accidentally uncovers.
One example is the following fact, one of a thousand, which is registered in GPU and for which the guilty have been punished:
THEY FORCED THE INMATES TO EAT THEIR OWN FECES.
“Comrades,” if we dare to use this phrase, verify that this is a fact from reality, about which, we repeat, OGPU has the official evidence, and judge for yourself the full extent of effrontery and humiliation in the supervision by those who want to make a career for themselves. [...]
We are sure and we hope that in the All-Union Communist Party there are people, as we have been told, who are humane and sympathetic; it is possible, that you might think that it is our imagination, but we swear to you all, by everything that is sacred to us, that this is only one small part of the nightmarish truth, because it makes no sense to make this up. We repeat, and will repeat 100 times, that yes, indeed there are some guilty people, but the majority suffer innocently, as is described above.
The word law, according to the law of the GPU concentration camps, does not exist; what does exist is only the autocratic power of petty tyrants, i.e., collaborators, serving time, who have power over life and death.
Everything described above is the truth and we, ourselves, who are close to the grave after 3 years in Solovky and Kemi [Jewish run Gulags] and other sections, are asking you to improve the pathetic, tortured existence of those who are there who languish under the yoke of the OGPU’s tyranny, violence, and complete lawlessness….

Christians Arrested by Jewish Bolsheviks Are Still Prisoners of Injustice
The Sunday Times of London, June 28 1998
by Mark Franchetti Vorkuta
Original Source for This Story Was Found on the Internet, July 2, 1998, at http://www.sunday-times.co.uk/news/pages/sti/98/06/28/stifgnrus02001.html?1500530 and is archived under the “fair use” provision of U.S.C. Title 17 Section 107 for scholarly, educational, and personal use by those previously requesting such.
Stalin’s Forgotten Prisoners…
THROUGHOUT his tortuous 10 years of hard labour in Stalin’s gulag, Pavel Negretov dreamt of the new life that would begin on the day he finished his sentence for anti-communist activities.
Still a young man, he imagined himself starting afresh in Moscow, far from the horrors he had endured.
That new life never came.
More than half a century later, Negretov remains stranded in Vorkuta, in the Arctic Circle, where he was sent to work in barbaric conditions in the coalmines of Russia’s far north. Now 75, he has yet to be granted the residence permit he needs to move with his wife to the Russian capital.
Negretov is not alone.
Hundreds of former opponents of Stalin’s dictatorship, including 250 in Vorkuta, have been left to their hard lives in remote regions to which they were exiled in the 1930s and 1940s. Most have struggled ever since to return to their home towns and villages. Thousands have died of old age without being allowed to resettle.
“There are queues of former political prisoners waiting to leave Vorkuta,” said Yevgenia Khaidarova, of the local branch of Memorial, a human rights organisation that helps victims of Soviet repression. “The scene is the same all over Russia. These people are caught in limbo, living in a terrible vicious circle – they can’t resettle without a propiska [residence permit], which they could get only if they had a flat in the city they wanted to go back to.” Those dispatched to the gulag had their flats confiscated by the authorities. With their homes, they lost their right to live in the places where they had grown up with their families. If they were affluent, they could buy a privatized flat.
Deprived long ago of any opportunity to establish themselves, however, they are poor.
If they moved without an official permit, they would have no legal right to work or to receive vital benefits, including healthcare.
Like the overwhelming majority of Russians, they depend on the state to provide them with homes. So they wait in the frozen Arctic, hoping forlornly that one day the state will find them a flat somewhere – anywhere – other than Vorkuta.
Isolated from the outside world by inhospitable tundra, 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle and more than 1,000 miles from Moscow, Vorkuta is a place where winter lasts for 10 months and the temperature falls regularly to -40C. It is completely dark for weeks on end. Like the other labour camps scattered across the northern wastes and christened the gulag archipelago by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, a camp survivor himself, Vorkuta was uninhabited until geologists found huge coal reserves beneath its frozen earth. Slave labour was the only way to develop the mineral wealth.
The first prisoners were sent to Vorkuta in 1931 on a journey that took six months and claimed thousands of lives. They were crammed first into cattle trains, then onto barges along several rivers and completed the last 50 miles on foot. Between 1934 and 1954, 2 million were sent away to toil in Vorkuta’s 80 mines – petty criminals, political opponents of Stalin and the hapless, innocent victims of senseless purges, “guilty” of anything from simply being related to a foreigner to having turned up late for work.
“My first year and a half was the hardest,” recalled Negretov, who arrived in Vorkuta at the height of winter after being arrested in Ukraine in 1946 for collaborating with an anti-communist group. “I thought I had landed in hell. “There were three shifts of eight hours. We were escorted at gunpoint in the snow from our barracks to the mines. It was always pitch-dark, with freezing temperatures, but the wind was the most terrible thing. I used to wonder why my parents had brought me into this world. I was skin and bones, and covered in ulcers.”
The inmates slept in pairs to keep warm, using one jacket as a mattress on the floor and the other as a blanket.
“We kept our boots under our heads to stop other prisoners from stealing them, and pulled our trousers down over our feet to prevent frostbite,” Negretov said. “Every morning an angry corporal would wake us up, shouting. That was the worst time – waking up to another day, exhausted.”
Every day in Vorkuta, prisoners starved, froze to death, were executed by guards or were killed digging in the mines. Memorial, which was headed by Andrei Sakharov, the dissident nuclear physicist, until his death in 1989, has obtained access to archives in an attempt to calculate the toll. The initial estimate is half a million dead. Today, the graves are marked by numbered, nameless wooden crosses in seven cemeteries that surround a city of 180,000 people built on bones.
“I have been here 52 years, and I have dreamt all my life of living in a city like Moscow or St Petersburg,” said Negretov. “Our state has no conscience. It has forgotten about us and the Russian people as a whole. We have no democracy, only greed for more power. And who is Boris Yeltsin? A former Communist party boss. Power has not changed hands.”
Since the advent of glasnost, the Russian government has rehabilitated most former zeks – as gulag inmates were known – formally recognizing them as innocent victims of repression and providing them with minimal compensation and the right to a proper pension. But it has done little to help them resettle.
Negretov fought until 1995 to be rehabilitated. He was awarded £700 compensation for the 10 years he sacrificed in the mines. All he really wants, however, is to move to any large Russian city. He was finally offered resettlement last month, but to the acrid smokestacks of Dzerzhinsk, the dangerously polluted centre of Russia’s chemical industry.
Memorial has written several times to Yeltsin and the Russian parliament, urging them to help the last gulag survivors go home. But the Kremlin has other, more pressing matters to attend to.
Along with Vorkuta’s ageing former prisoners, hundreds of unemployed young miners have joined the clamour to leave in search of a brighter future. They constitute a more menacing force for change. Since taking up the cause of the former inmates with the aid of the Solzhenitsyn Foundation, which is run by the writer’s wife, Natalia, Memorial has managed to help several gulag victims resettle far from Vorkuta, but seldom to the cities of their choice. Some who were moved to rural backwaters without heating or hot water were so disappointed that they returned to Vorkuta.
Gulag survivors have received little support from ordinary Russians in their quest to return home. When Stalin’s death in 1953 led to the release of millions of prisoners, even their families often refused to take them in, for fear of persecution by the KGB.
“The first thing I did when I was let out was to get on a train back to Moscow,” said Lyubov Kalashnikova, who spent a decade in Vorkuta’s camps. “I still had a brother and sister living there. “They hadn’t seen me for 10 years but nobody dared welcome me home. They were too scared. Everyone was terrified of being associated with me.” She was eventually forced to go back to Vorkuta. Decorated for bravery as a volunteer in the Soviet army during the second world war, Kalashnikova, now 78, was accused of treason in 1941 because she had survived a German ambush. Her superiors said she should have turned the gun on herself rather than risk capture. When she became a “free” woman, she made an annual, 46-hour journey by train to Moscow for 15 years in a vain attempt to plead for a residence permit. “I have tried to return to Moscow all my life,” she said.
Kalashnikova, who can barely walk and lives with her disabled daughter in a tiny flat in Vorkuta, has never been given any hope of success. Instead, every year, she receives the letter Yeltsin sends to all veterans, congratulating them on the anniversary of the end of the war.
“I don’t want to die here,” said Kalashnikova, whose baby son died from diptheria in the camps at the age of two. “I hate this town. It is a symbol of death. I buried my life here, my destiny, my happiness. “My only wish is to return to Moscow, to die in my homeland. I have not lived here. I have simply existed. That has been the most painful thing – just seeing my life pass away, crossed off, erased without trace. Russia has forgotten about us.”
