Audio for Radio Devon via journalist Sophie Pierce whom I like, and who has interviewed me several times 11.30 10-12-19

Dear Sophie,

Campaigning hard as an Independent man and mind in the constituency of Newton Abbot.  Back from the woods, I had a message about 10 days ago to contact you.  You have interviewed me several times, first and way back to do with the Voyage of The Dove and the Dolphin - 1-02-03.  Again re my fight with good others for the life of our Community Hospitals and their vital in-patient beds.  Lost - hence the third world chaos in OUR DGHs.  Every day I hear stories of gross negligence.

I 'phoned the Plymouth BBC, and James recorded about 7 minutes of my forth right responses to about 6 set questions. He said 'great'.  I trust he will stay in post.  He said you were unsure when the whole piece would be broadcast.  I have not heard.  I have watched a few minutes of the Boris/Jeremy Punch and Judy show which central BBC 'editors' are keen to flog to infinity.  I have seen a few excruciating clips from the third form debating society - Mrs Swinson.  Britain has been lowered mostly by our politicians but ably helped by the 'media'.

Allies of the UK? Confirm or deny. Saudi Arabia - Brutal executions. Torture

Julian Assange Likely to die in Bellmarsh Prison

Dear Mr Stride,

I assume that you have not read the account by Craig Murray when he attended the Westminster Magistrate's Court 21-10-19

https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2019/10/assange-in-court/

You and the very large majority of MPs who are silent in this matter, are complicit in his unlawful detention and torture.

yours sincerely

To Mr Mel Stride MP Central Devon, member of the Conservative Party of GB, and citizen of the same sovereign government.  Sending 5.02  23-10-19

Dear Mr Stride,

Thank you

I refer to my three e-mails to you - gathered in the attached document and sent yesterday 22-10-19  at 9.56, 10.24, and 10.44 .  You replied to them at 7.09 pm - below.  The latter being prompt, is exceptional.  You have never replied to over 30 e-mails to you without there being an initial 'automatic' reply by e-m.  Almost all have been about breaches of international law by HMG.  Your responses have usually required urging by me, and have not been substantive.  There are 15 records on my web site of correspondence with you.  This is the second most recent  https://dhalpin.infoaction.org.uk/2-articles/correspondence-with-politicians/96-correspondence-with-mp-mel-stride

You, with a large majority in the 'House', have agreed to aggressive wars as proscribed by the Charter of the UN, and as incorporated in the Nuremberg Protocols.  A few MPs and Peers have stood firmly against such unlawfulness and gross cruelty, involving the destruction of sovereign nations and their people.  I pick out John Baron MP, who has served in the forces and knows too well of the horror of war, and of the conspiracies leading to it.  The late true Labour MP Paul Flynn was another https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Flynn_(politician) even though surrounded by 'Blairites' ie supporters of the paramount psychopath and war criminal.  I recall the late Lord Onslow.  He was the only one who reacted in horror at the evidence given by Craig Murray at the Joint Intelligence Committee.  (Watch the video.)

Which party does Dr Wollaston currently represent?

Office of Dr Sarah Wollaston MP Totnes Constituency

Dear Nina,

Which party does Dr Wollaston currently represent?  I am not sure.  I do know she left the Conservative party some time ago.  So I cannot help wondering which element is paying the office expenses, but 'not my bag' as they say.  Incidentally, I had some useful correspondence with her re OUR NHS early on.  I have summarised the strategy as

destabilise>demoralise>dismantle. 

The latter started in about 1988 with Mrs Thatcher's/Milton Friedman's/Chicago School's Internal Market.  All the main organs opposed it, and I did my best alone from Torbay Hospital and the Princess Elizabeth Orthopaedic Hospital, ** to oppose it.  ***  The latter was bulldozed for a housing estate in c.1994 against the opposition of the surgeons bar two of ten.  PEOH - > RD&E as the PEOC.  This was under a Tory government and with Dame Margaret Turner-Warwick at the helm of the RD&E.  I had five colleagues at the RD&E then.  There are now 33.  This is in inverse proportion to the available beds.  eg  In February 2018, 8 operating lists were set up one weekend - as Mr Hunt was instructing should happen.  (You will recall he had angered the younger medical staff by calling the service then a 5 day one.)  There were only 12 available beds and as yet hip replacements etc cannot be done from day beds!  Norovirus on one ward and big overflows from the acute medical intake.  We were completely insulated from the latter at the PEOH and had 120 beds including one for children.  And you have heard how at Derriford, almost all elective orthopaedic surgery has been shifted from the NHS  to Care UK.
