   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
