One half of Facebook's third double block this year remains in place (day 60). The Equality and Human Rights Commission compound their helpline's distortion of Declan's complaint of discrimination against the landlord by refusing Lyn Brown MP's referral
Almost all the images in this blog post had to be transferred to an alternative host website for rectification. In MediaFire, a lot of the images in this blog have still not been restored to their true size. I will be writing to them about this in due course.

With the background as provided above, the Heaveys now are facing an eviction notice from their landlord, Peabody Trust housing association. The tenancy is a flat, which falls under the Mayor of London's Rough Sleepers Initiative. Pardoning my intrusion into English law, but in fairness there does not appear to be any reason for the eviction, relying apparently entirely on the discretion of the landlord.

Our Church and State website has no less than 61 Nobel Laureates on it despite the never-ending assault on our email; see paragraph 2 under "Church and State" on this blog's sidebar (updated today).
On the morning of 4 February, Facebook blocked me from going live for 60 days because of the above meme that I posted in 2017. They then rejected my appeal. Today is Day 60 of this block.
On the afternoon of 4 February, I reported to Facebook about being blocked from deleting posts. The Delete button had disappeared as I was deleting posts in block going back years. This facility was restored to me later in the day.
Facebook's first quadruple block
Facebook's first quadruple block was updated on 25 August 2020. (1) I couldn't scroll after seeing 4-5 posts in groups I belong to (22 days); (2) I couldn't post in these groups (38 days); (3) I couldn't post in our Page (39 days); (4) I couldn't access a list of my groups (481 days). On 18 July 2020, I was threatened with the termination of my account without reason or cause.

4 April: The Equality and Human Rights Commission have advised Lyn Brown MP that they will not accept a referral from her. Why must the Commission's helpline (EASS) distort Declan's claim of discrimination against the landlord? (regularly updated)

DJ Ruth Fine orders Declan to pay £1,850 in costs
The Central London County Court is based at the Royal Courts of Justice.
Heavey v St Mungo's (2020)
The following is the full content of paragraph 4 under "Church and State" on this blog's sidebar that has been updated today.
4. This eviction matter came before District Judge Ruth Fine at the Central London County Court on 30 June 2020, when both counsel for St Mungo's (the charity in effective control of our tenancy) and Declan presented their positions. Declan lost the case and was ordered to pay £1,850 in costs. A publishing colleague in America cleared these costs within 24 hours of my blog post about this hearing for strike out on a related issue that was the essence of the claim, i.e., that St Mungo's would take a phone call to confirm that we are clients of the Mayor of London's RSI programme. Within a week of the hearing, St Mungo's had agreed to take this phone call for us both, the Court having ruled that they were not obliged to do so despite our circumstances. This time we escaped bankruptcy (counsel for St Mungo's asked for £3,407.50 in costs), but consider that to seek pro se access to justice in the courts has become far too dangerous for us. Declan is currently battling the Information Commissioner's report into how St Mungo's is now processing our personal data without our knowledge or consent.
30 June 2020: District Judge Ruth Fine orders Declan to pay £1,850 in costs. St Mungo's are under no obligation to even vouch over the phone that we are clients of the Mayor of London-commissioned St Mungo's TST programme (WITH UPDATE 02/04/21)[1]

4 April: Pixsy (day 145): I have found Declan's Motion to Dismiss to fight their threatened court action in an article titled "Defense Against the Dark Arts of Copyright Trolling". No sooner had we heard from them than they were named and shamed by Computer Weekly and it's a truly sickening read (regularly updated)
For months we experienced an almost total blockade of our emails to prominent space advocates anywhere in the world (only the latest targeted group). That blockade extended to an offer of financial help to us personally the week before Christmas 2020. We continue to have problems sending and receiving emails and op-eds when it comes to a close colleague in Washington, DC. Declan's use of his mobile phone to try to get my permission emails through to prominent space advocates has also proven unsuccessful. On both recent occasions the leading expert could only be reached through voice mail. When it comes to space travel, we most recently had the honour of listing a Hall of Famer astronaut among our Honorary Associates. It was one of the few emails that we have gotten through to prominent space advocates since last September. (A distinction is made here between a prominent space advocate and someone who has written an article about space travel. I do get some permission emails through to space writers, but regrettably not very many and only occasionally.)
23 December 2020: The blockade of Church and State emails extends to the sabotage of an offer of financial help to us personally. Pixsy with their outrageous Third Notice threaten our Church and State website. And Declan's primary laptop targeted this afternoon
Facebook's suppression tactics with us
On 4 September 2020, which also happened to be Declan's 60th birthday, the Housing Ombudsman Service set our landlord Peabody Trust a third and final deadline to respond to his Stage 1 complaint. Almost immediately that same day we were unreasonably threatened by Facebook that our Page would be unpublished by them. For the rest of the year, the distribution of the page was dramatically reduced from 120-400K to an average 5-10K post reach for the previous seven days. What, when or how often I posted had little or no effect on the suppression of the post reach on any one given day. This year we had an average 15K-20K in this post reach before I was forced to leave Facebook on 4 February for two months. On 9 March I switched off Facebook 'likes' for more freedom from the platform and any eviction back to the streets for the third time. Later that week I decided to leave the platform for the period of one year rather than risk being banned for life.
17 October 2020: We have permission to publish this ISAF letter of 30 September to Facebook COO Sheryl Samberg. Facebook has so severely restricted our Page's distribution since 4 September that it's almost as good as an unpublished page

We have had 10.7 million hits in the past three years on Facebook and despite their unfair practices (10,712,672 million hits as at 13 March to be exact). Our five most popular articles had 6.6 million Facebook likes/shares before I switched off the button for more freedom from the platform (6,585,640 likes/shares as at 9 March to be exact). We expect to have a massively improved site this time next year, and hopefully we will have found someone interested in us who has insiders at Facebook.
Our list of 297 Honorary Associates includes 19 Nobel Prize laureates, 13 US National Medal of Science laureates, 4 US National Medal of Technology and Innovation laureates and 12 knighted professors notwithstanding the excessive targeting of these categories of emails in particular. (Last month we had the honour of listing as associates two US National Medal of Science laureates and a fifth Turing Award laureate. The Turing Award is generally recognised as the highest distinction in computer science, or the "Nobel Prize of Computing".)
