13 days after Madeleine McCann was reported missing, husband and wife, Dr. Katherina Gaspar and Arul Gaspar gave statements to the British police. Katherina made serious allegations regarding Dr. Gerry McCann and Dr. David Payne. (Dr. Payne is a close friend of the McCanns and was on holiday with them when Madeleine was reported missing). I later briefly spoke to Mrs. Gaspar. She was terrified. Neither the McCanns nor the Paynes have formed part of the British police investigation which has cost taxpayers more than £14million. I spent months writing to the McCanns and the Paynes with questions. The McCanns refused to answer and the Paynes returned the questions to the production office. The envelope had been opened. As an investigative journalist, I am acutely aware that the disappearance of Madeleine McCann is a matter of public interest because of the resources - and Government interest - extended in the search for her. This is the moment I confronted Dr. David Payne. Full Episode: EP. 97: Wake Up Investigates Here: All Sonia Poulton LINKS:

David Attenborough used falsehoods about dead walruses to push a narrative about climate change and then he and Prince William launched the whole lie at the World Economic Forum. Even when he was corrected by people who actually knew their stuff, he still refused to correct the falsehood. So, yes, you may be part of the euphoric 'Happy 100th Birthday, Sir David Attenborough - king of nature, blah blah blah' but I think he's a manufactured media character and an establishment apparatchik. I far and away preferred David Bellamy but he refused to play the game so they ostracised him. Taken from: The Dark Side of David Attenborough. Here: You Tube: Rumble: Spotify:

For decades, British celebrity David Walliams has been able to get away with problematic behaviour disguised as entertainment. It is estimated that he has allegedly assaulted young males - some as young as 16 - on stage in his 'Hide The Sausage' routine where he plays the role of a paedophile character called Des Kaye. This clip shows him assaulting music producer Mark Ronson during a charity event. From EP. 194 WAKE UP INVESTIGATES: David Walliams & Matt Lucas Here:

THIS IS THE STORY OF A POTENTIAL SCANDAL THAT JUST WENT AWAY Former Labour MP Nick Brown was at the heart of politics for 40 years in an assortment of senior roles. He was close to Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Keir Starmer and even, at one stage, Jeremy Corbyn. And then suddenly he vanished. The story given was very specific: he was suspended regarding a serious allegation from 25 years ago. That was it. An internal inquiry took place, Brown hired libel lawyers and then quit politics with his pension intact. Much talk of super injunctions have abounded. Serious allegations can be found all over the internet. But....silence. The Labour Party have refused to tell us more. For an elected representative who relied on the public purse for decades, there has been an extraordinary lack of transparency and accountability as to what happened to Nick Brown. It’s unacceptable. Brown was in the thick of much decision-making alongside Peter 'Epstein's mate' Mandelson and Morgan 'had my phone nicked' McSweeney. The Labour Party have certainly tried to shut down conversation regarding Nick Brown, of that I am in no doubt - and I directly experienced it. This live investigation covers my week trying to find out more about vanishing MP, Nick Brown. I was very clear with every one I approached: this is a matter of public interest and it doesn't just 'go away' because Starmer and co. want it to. THIS IS THE STORY OF A GOVT COVER UP THAT GOES RIGHT TO THE HEART OF THE BRITISH DEMOCRACY. A story of such significance that some believe it could bring down Starmer if the full truth was told. The British public have a right to know.

We are in trouble. We are surrounded by people who seek to curb our free speech and our right to assemble and they have weaponised antisemitism to do it. The problem is, our top cop, Prime Minister and an assortment of compromised politicians, media outlets and bought 'patriots' all support it. Even typing this could find the police at my door for the second time in a week. They are dangerously over-zealous in their obedience to Israel and our citizens are paying the price. It is not antisemitic to say Israel is 'running the UK'. It is anti-Zionism and that is protected in UK law. Don't conflate the two, that's antisemitic. British people are not a priority in our own country. Our politicians, police and media are compromised. These people are Israel First and they are harming us.

SIR STEPHEN FRY'S 'BOY PROBLEM' ‘National Treasure’ Stephen Fry is portrayed as everything that is right with England. But the world, as we know, is inverted. As a journalist who has spent decades looking into the issues of child sexualisation and child exploitation, I have many problems regarding things Fry has said and written about children. Welcome to England, where attempting to normalise sexual relationships between adult males and young boys AND displaying troubling attitudes towards survivors of child abuse is NOT a barrier to being knighted. It might even be a plus. Arise Sir Stephen. This clip is from: EP. 184 The Dark Side of Stephen Fry Full Report: You Tube: Rumble: Spotify: Malcolm Clark Article: Malcolm Clark

Baroness Karren Brady - sidekick to Alan Sugar on 'The Apprentice' - has been championed as the foremost female in British business. The woman's woman, apparently. It's a clever brand that looks good and wins her lots of 'women' awards but how true is it, really? And if it is...why has she heavily aligned herself with a series of problematic men? #SimonCowell #DavidSullivan #PhilipGreen

THE MURDER OF STUART LUBBOCK 25 years ago today, 31-year-old Stuart Lubbock was found dead in the Essex pool of TV entertainer, Michael Barrymore on 31 March 2001. Stuart had sustained internal injuries described by a forensic pathologist as “horrific”. Essex Police admit errors in the original investigation. No one has ever been charged with the murder of Stuart Lubbock. Michael Barrymore has always denied any involvement. Stuart’s brother, Kevin, has said on the anniversary of Stuart’s death: “I hope that new DNA methods will provide the truth of how Stuart got those injuries. The science has come a long way in 25 years so all of the key evidence should be retested.” Over the years I’ve interviewed Stuart’s ex-wife, Sue, hear what she has to say here. RIP Stuart - may justice be done.

IN THE SEARCH FOR MADELEINE MCCANN ANSWERS STATE AGENT: WHO IS CLARENCE MITCHELL? ▶️BBC Reporter on the scene of Jill Dando's murder ▶️Worked for Tony Blair's Labour Govt ▶️Kate & Gerry McCann Spokesperson ▶️Former Consultant, Freud Communications: 'crisis management' ▶️Attempted election to Parliament as a Conservative MP ▶️Now a Reform UK Councillor seeking Parliamentary election That's a lot of interesting roles for a man commonly described as a 'public relations expert' and the 'McCanns spokesman'. As a journalist who has investigated the disappearance of Madeleine McCann since 2007, Clarence Mitchell has always refused to answer any of my questions even though they are a matter of public interest. This was the night I approached him carrying questions given to me by members of the British public. People who were sick of funding a multi-million pound police investigation that has shown no true intent to find out what happened to Madeleine. The abduction theory does not stack up. We shouldn't be funding it. But we should get answers from those who push it. Clip from 'Madeleine McCann: Public Relations & Saving Reputations'. Here:

RANTZEN & SAVILE For decades, Esther Rantzen worked at the BBC with Jimmy Savile. She heard rumours about him being sexually inappropriate with children and she did nothing. She put it down to gossip. Esther Rantzen founded ‘Childline’ and has long been portrayed as a champion for children. Others say this could not be further from the truth.

THIS IS SENSITIVE CONTENT AND MAY TRIGGER I've been doing my job for decades and I don't say this lightly: this, without a doubt, is one of the hardest public conversations I've had as a journalist & broadcaster. In fact, I cried several times during this interview with Gordon Woods • Author ‘Being Put Through Hoops’ and his tremendous daughter, Brianna. No shame here because this is a highly emotive story involving a man in end-of-life care and his young carer daughter. This is also a story of courage and hope and the power of our collective humanity in overcoming darkness. It's the story of what happens when a young abused lad became a grown man and, with the backing of his daughter, went and grabbed back the power that was taken from him. As a teenager, Gordon Woods was sexually abused by Jim Torbett, a prolific child abuser who had founded Celtic Boy's Club with the backing of Celtic Football Club. CBC was a youth training ground for Celtic (the Club insisted they were a 'separate entity' when people started to realise WTF had happened with all these kids) and it was also a pick up ground for Torbett's paedophile associates. Gordon's experience was part of the sexual abuse of young boys on an industrial scale at this Scottish club. There are many survivors and legal actions. Some of the paedophiles have been jailed, some escaped. There are still people walking around with questions to answer. I first interviewed Gordon around 2020. His legal struggle was beginning. He has come a long way in highlighting what he and others suffered at the hands of Torbett and co. Celtic have been forced to compensate him and others (although they fought brutally hard not to) and, aware of his health issues, there were unnecessary delays created. It was as if they wanted Gordon to die off first, he says. Gordon said I was the first person to interview him -before his story became an international one - and also the last person. I hope not but, yes, I think I cried at that, too. His book, 'Being Put Through Hoops' is here

As a journalist and broadcaster, I have spent many years on TV discussing one subject or another. It’s only with the benefit of hindsight that some of those conversations take on a new meaning. Here I am on ITV’s This Morning in 2013, we are debating reducing the age of consent in the UK. I am opposed to it. I believe it will make children even more vulnerable to predators and I can’t work out why adults continually want to rush children into sexual relationships. One of the TV hosts challenges me claiming that children: “…don’t give a damn about the law. They're not bothering about the law. They don’t care whether the age of consent is 13 or 16,” he says. Years later that same man – Phillip Schofield – was found to have been conducting an inappropriate relationship with a junior male member of staff. Schofield and his co-host, Holly Willoughby, faked a ‘he’s gay’ coming out scenario. The rumour in newsrooms was Schofield’s ‘affair’ with the lad was about to be exposed. Schofield says it was ‘legal’ but there remain question marks over what age the lad was when they met. Later, Schofield’s brother, Timothy, would be convicted of 11 counts of sexually abusing a child. Like I said, this conversation now hits differently.
