City of London Police: Threat to life

This photo was taken last night at 10.30pm, just before we bedded down at our sleeping pitch on a derelict highwalk at the back of Salters' Hall. It is the third night in a row that we have slept with Salters' lights and would suggest that Salters have been told they can no longer remain impartial as we try to break the accommodation blockade through surveillance that we have been dealing with for over a year, and despite Declan's email on Wednesday to Home Secretary Theresa May under the subject title of "City of London Police: Threat to life" (see below).

So much then for Declan's latest to Theresa May:

On 14 March we were evicted from our previous flat because according to our then live-in landlady's ex-husband, Dr Nigel McKenzie, a consultant psychiatrist in Highgate Mental Health Centre, our flat was needed for somebody with a mental illness. As Declan mentions in his email to May above, MI5 whistleblower David Shayler also lived with Belinda McKenzie in the same house for a couple of years until 2007. It is unfortunate Shayler then declared that he was the Messiah, became a squatter, and was subsequently ridiculed in the press for changing his name to Delores Kane. A New Statesman article dated 11 September 2006 featuring Shayler and Belinda gives no indication that Shayler believed he was the Messiah at that time; whilst a Daily Mail interview with Shayler explicitly shows he believed himself to be Jesus by June 2007.


The Esquire article below* is mentioned in a Guardian article dated 27 March 2012. It is an eye-opener, highlighting the monitoring and surveillance that Shayler had to live with back in 2000, and the contradictory briefings and slanders that were coming out of the British establishment and the media. The author, Dr Eamonn O'Neill, is a lecturer in journalism at Strathclyde University.

BBC PANORAMA: The David Shayler Affair (August 1998)

According to BBC Panorama, Shayler "caused the biggest crisis of official secrecy since the spy catcher affair". In 2002, he was jailed for seven weeks for breaking the Official Secrets Act.
