   Three Years of. "MI5 Persecution" Faxes   
      
   Ten Thousand Faxes, and Still. No Breakthrough   
      
   In the last three. years I have sent at least 5,301 faxes directly from my   
   computer, and 4,478 faxes through Demons extremely. useful TPC.INT service,   
   to politicians. and the media, in the subject of the "MI5   
   Persecution". This has. obviously cost me quite a lot of money, not to   
   mention time and effort. The aim of all. this communication has been to try   
   to put discussion of. the "MI5 persecution" into the public   
   arena; unfortunately,. this aim has not been achieved, yet.   
      
   This fax will. be my last transmission for the time being, since the summer   
   recess is almost upon. us. Depending on what the persecutors do between now   
   and. the autumn, I may or may not resume faxing later this year. In the   
   article dated 18/6/99 I said Id. stop the articles if MI5 left me   
   alone; but. they seem to have no fear of these articles, since they kept   
   pursuing me in Poland and after my return to the UK. Again, if they. leave   
   me alone this. summer then I wont have to resume the articles in the   
   autumn; but I think its. fairly obvious that MI5 have nothing better to do   
   with their time than to go after me, and. its almost pointless to make this   
   offer when I know they wont cease harassing. me.   
      
   TPC.INT. 1996, 1997, 1998.....   
      
   Three years ago I was living. in Canada, and the only economic way of   
   sending faxes to the UK was through the international. email-to-fax gateway   
   TPC.INT. This highly useful and totally free service converts. emails   
   (which. may have Postscript-formatted attachments) into faxes which it   
   delivers. to any number within the UK. Using the telephone book, I   
   constructed a computer database of. M.P.s fax numbers, and used this   
   database to deliver copies of the "FAQ. - frequently asked   
   questions" article which. Id written some time earlier.   
      
   This service is still operational, but. given that I have resided in London   
   for the last year, I do not need to. use Demons service when I can send   
   articles directly from my own computer using its fax/modem, which is. what   
   I. have been doing since 1998. However, instead of just sending the FAQ   
   article, Ive been composing. articles on various aspects of MI5s treatment   
   of me. Since their. activities have been going on for nine years now, and   
   there have been various aspects to their actions; they have harassed me. at   
   work, at home, through the media, etc; I. have so far not run out of things   
   to say, particularly since their harassment of me is still. ongoing, and I   
   have. been able to record the actual words used by their paid agents on my   
   minidisc-walkman. Since mid-March 1999 I have been. sending these articles   
   pretty. much every weekend.   
      
   Anyway, as mentioned above, I. intend this to be the final transmission   
   before the summer recess, and it would be nice. not to have to continue   
   these articles in the autumn.. But thats something that depends on them,   
   not me, and their attitude. is unfortunately clear.   
      
   Why am I. sending these articles?   
      
   Because I want. the harassment to stop. The cynical reader might think from   
   these articles that I "thrive on adversity" and would be lost without. the   
   harassment to complain about; but that is not the case.. In a perfect world   
   I would like to return to. work, in a job unsullied by MI5s attempts to   
   ruin it; I would like to live in a house which wasnt. bugged, with my words   
   being repeated at me wherever I go; I would like. a normal life. I do not   
   particularly thrive on adversity; I am beaten. down by adversity; the   
   purpose of these faxes is to. try to bring the whole matter out into the   
   public arena, where. the rights and wrongs would be visible to all, and   
   once that were to. happen, the adversity might cease. I have had something   
   approaching a normal life a couple of times in the. last nine years, but   
   always, in the end, MI5. turn up and ruin it. I just want these people out   
   of my life, permanently, and the only way of. doing that is to kick this   
   business into the public. arena, and shame MI5 so that they are incapable   
   of. doing me further damage.   
      
   Having said that, unfortunately it. seems fairly obvious by now that these   
   faxed articles are not going to achieve that aim. Some of. the recipients   
   know what I am saying is true; but they choose to stay. quiet - wisely,   
   because. if they were to admit the truth of these articles, then they would   
   bring the wrath of MI5 down. on their heads. Presumably most recipients do   
   not know these. articles are true; their reaction to me is the same as my   
   reaction to. the other apparently deluded people who have sent me email   
   after reading my webpage to tell me it happened to them. too; the reaction   
   being, "leave me alone, I dont want to know". Its. sad that many M.P.s have   
   given me this reaction, because. my case genuinely is different; I   
   genuinely am. telling the truth, and the harassment genuinely is happening   
   to me, and some recipients. of this fax know this to be true.   
      
   "Write to. your own M.P."   
      
   My local M.P. is. Mr Keith Hill, Labour-Streatham. He refuses to have   
   anything to do with me. He refuses to represent me,. he refuses to talk to   
   me, he has told me not to communicate. with him. He has done absolutely   
   nothing to help me, and he has told me he will do absolutely nothing. to   
   help. me.   
      
   Other M.P.s, recipients. of these faxes, have for quite some time been   
   telling me, "write to your. own M.P.".  On 23 March 1998, Paul Burstow   
   M.P. wrote to me; "Whilst I. take the issues that you raise seriously,   
   there is a strict Parliamentary convention that. one Member of Parliament   
   does not. take up anothers casework. Can I suggest that you write to your   
   own M.P. at the House of Commons?"  Hopefully. the above paragraph will   
   make clear that I have written to my. own M.P. and he has proved unhelpful.   
      
   Other M.P.s. have told me the same thing. On 21 May 1998, John McFall   
   M.P. told me, "... there is a parliamentary convention that M.P.s do. not   
   take up cases of people not in their constituency..... therefore can. I   
   suggest that you write to your local M.P. who will be. better able to   
   assist you."  And on 8 June. 1998, Michael Foster M.P. wrote to me that   
   "M.P.s are inundated with unsolicited faxes .... M.P.s have a. considerable   
   amount of constituent. work to deal with, thus other M.P.s constituents   
   cease to be of concern in so far as they should have. a voice and   
   representation".   
      
   Simon Hughes M.P. wrote to me on 5. November 1998, "There is a strict   
   parliamentary convention which states that I am not. able to represent   
   individuals. who are not constituents of mine. My advice is that you find   
   out who your own Member of Parliament is rather than. circulating your   
   story to all M.P.s.". To my suggestion. that Keith Hill M.P. was doing   
   nothing to help me, George Foulkes. M.P. sent the following faxed   
   response; "If Keith Hill your own M.P. cannot help. no-one else in the   
   House of Commons can.". But it is clearly not a case of "cannot" help, but
