Seems Bristol freemasonic MP Jack Lopresti has
decided to become a globetrotting 'fixer' for
former 'cattle prods to be used on humans'
peddling BAe Systems now, step into Mark
Thatcher's shoes and cut a few arms deals with
one of the most human rights abusing, fake Islam regimes.
As Britain has become fake Christian with a new
former oil shark Archbishop... Lopresti paving
the way for Charles & Camilla's visit last week too.

Private Eye no 1334, 22 February - 2 March 2013
HP Sauce p.10
EUROPEAN defence giant EADS still hopes to brush
off bribery allegations concerning its British
subsidiary GPT Special Project Management and a
£2bn Saudi government contract (Eyes passim).
Despite strong words in the Middle East earlier
this month, David Cameron, like Tony Blair before
him, is thought not to be too keen on upsetting
British-Saudi relations by prosecuting the
corruption that sustains a dubious regime and
billions of pounds' worth of arms contracts.
Meanwhile, even as the Serious Fraud Office
director David Green mulls the case, two Tory MPs
are doing their bit for the business.
According to the register of members' interests,
Oliver Colvile, MP for Plymouth Sutton and
Devonport, went on a three-day, £6,000 visit to
Riyadh in December paid for by the Saudi
government as part of a "UK Defence Forum
delegation to gain an understanding of the
political and security framework as related to
the Saudi government". The forum is a think-tank
funded by big arms firms, including EADS. It is
led by lobbyist Robin Ashby, who accompanied
Colvile, and is run by his firm, Bergman PRo
Another Tory, Filton and Bradley Stoke MP Jack
Lopresti, went to the kingdom at the same time,
also paid for by the Saudi government. Lopresti
makes no mention of the UK Defence Forum but says
he went "to meet with members of the Shura
Council (the Riyadh parliament's upper house),
government ministers and various human rights groups".
The Eye asked Mr Lopresti if in fact he had gone
with the UK Defence Forum, and for more details
of the human rights groups he met on a trip
funded by a Saudi government that is
traditionally keener on deals than on rights. Answer came there none.
Things are looking less cosy in the US, certainly
for EADS, with the FBI reportedly looking into
the GPT case. A fair chunk of the offshore
payments, as the Eye first revealed, went through
HSBC New York branches and the arrangements might
well fall within the long reach of American law
enforcers, despite their thoroughly British
origins - as the Eye can this week reveal (see p39).
BACKGROUND: UK SAUDI ARMS DEALS
A Very British Coup
THE dodgy multi-million pound offshore payments
made by a British company involved in a £2bn arms
deal with Saudi Arabia, exposed by the Eye last
May, have remarkable roots back in the very
earliest days of the hugely lucrative British-Saudi arms trade, we can reveal.
Details of the payments for apparently sham
"bought in services" by GPT Special Project
Management Ltd, a subsidiary of European defence
giant EADS, are currently gathering dust in the
pending tray of Serious Fraud Office director
David Green but are part of a long and
dishonourable trade going back half a century.
Back in 1962, when Egypt's Soviet-backed
president Gamal Nasser fomented a republican coup
against the royalist regime in Yemen, Saudi
Arabia's south-western neighbour, leading British
right-wingers urged action. They perceived a
threat to Aden, then a British protectorate, to
the south; but there was no official appetite for
intervention in the wake of the Suez humiliation
and given US support for Nasser.
Unofficially something could be done, however;
and Julian Amery MP (pictured right), then a
right-wing aviation minister and his friend David
Stirling, the wartime founder of the SAS now
itching to reassert British power, persuaded
foreign secretary Alec Douglas-Home that they
should set up a covert, deniable, operation.
Awash with petro-dollars
Soon Stirling had assembled a group of ex SAS
men to marshal Yemen's poorly organised royalist
forces, all funded by a rich but weakly armed
Saudi regime feeling threatened by Nasser's
encroachment next door. The British Field Liaison
Force (BFLF) as it became, achieved some mutually
beneficial military success, arguably keeping
Nasser's forces out of Saudi Arabia until a deal
for the supply of Lightning jets that effectively
became the Saudi air force, negotiated by
Stirling and legendary fixer Geoffrey Edwards, came off in 1965.
Duff Hart-Davis, author of The War That Never
Was, reports the mercenaries' commander Jim
Johnson explaining: "Big David [Stirling] and
Geoffrey Edwards had gone quite a way down the
line with Tourist [codename for Saudi defence
minister Prince Sultan]. Tourist would sign their
enormous deal if we could guarantee to hold
everything together long enough for them to get
their bits here." The Yemen operation, in other
words, was good both for business and the Saudi
royals who would prove such generous customers in the coming decades.
Although the dogs of war felt betrayed when the
British government withdrew from Aden, Stirling
and Edwards managed to persuade defence secretary
Denis Healey of the merits of lucrative
"govemment-to-govemment" deals with the Saudis
for equipment, training and maintenance that
would be run by ex-SAS men. One BFLF veteran,
Bernard Mills, would tell filmmaker Adam Curtis
in 1999: "We had already shown in Yemen and other
things that we had the capability of doing it."
A series of major contracts followed, ballooning
in value after the 1974 oil price hike left Saudi
Arabia awash with petro-dollars.
Among the biggest was a £400m deal (more than
£2bn in today's money) concluded in 1978 for a
new communications network for the Saudi Arabian
National Guard, the 30,000-strong personal army
of Prince Abdullah, now the country's 88-year-old king.
The "SANGCOM" deal, signed by the Ministry of
Defence as a government-to-government contract
with the Saudis using Cable & Wireless as "prime
contractor", would transform Abdullah's Guard
into a rapid reaction force that could quell any
uprising and keep the oil flowing.
Sins of commission
The contract was won, according to a Times report
at the time, "against exceptionally fierce
foreign competition, especially from the US".
And, as the British government accepted by this
stage, winning and retaining such contracts
required ample "commissions" for Saudi sheikhs and officials.
It was into this rich new world that two obscure
outfits had recently stepped, although their
names would only become known decades later when
the project manager on the latest phase of the
SANGCOM project, now operated by GPT Special
Project Management Ltd, blew the whistle on
millions of pounds in payments to them.
On 23 October 1975 Simec International, a
Liechtenstein "anstalt" foundation, was created
and a moribund British company within the London
merchant banking group Antony Gibbs & Sons
changed its name to Duranton Ltd, taking on a new
role as "agents, advisers and consultants, in
particular to persons and institutions interested
in trade between Europe and the Middle East". The
timing was telling: a later MoD memo reveals that
in the same month Cable & Wireless's "detailed
proposals, prepared by them and approved by
MOD(PE) ['procurement executive'] were submitted
to the National Guard in October 1975".
Simec was established by two Brits. One was Bryan
Somerfield, a former "political officer", aka an
MI6 intelligence officer, in Aden, who had gone
on to use his local knowledge as an agent for,
among others, Marconi. British embassy papers
from around the time, unearthed by author
Nicholas Gilbey, record officials remarking how
Somerfield "had found the right connections for
doing business with the National Guard" and "had
a special pull with the Royal family". His
partner in the venture would be a bright young
engineer, Peter Austin, who hailed from Marconi's
home town of Chelmsford and was now working for the company in Beirut.
A domestic affair
According to Liechtenstein papers filed by Simec,
obtained by the Eye, both operated out of
addresses in Lebanon, the former's listed simply
as "Haus Somerfield" in the town of Shemlan, home
to the Middle East Centre for Arabic Studies (a
well known "spy school" until the Lebanese civil
war forced its closure), the latter's an apartment block in downtown Beirut.
Duranton was a more domestic affair, set up
within the London banking group that since 1973
had been run by Sir Philip de Zulueta, a former
private secretary to successive prime ministers
Eden, Macmillan and Douglas-Home. He also sat on
the London committee of the Hong Kong and
Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) and was a
director of its subsidiary, the British Bank of
the Middle East, which could explain why, right
until 2010, payments to Duranton and Simec flowed
through HSBC accounts in London and New York.
When Stirling's Yemen venture had been approved
by Macmillan back in 1962, de Zulueta had been a
hawkish confidant keen on confronting Nasser. Now
his bank, Antony Gibbs, was funding hundreds of
thousands of pounds (several millions in current
prices) in fees and expenses in seeking out
contracts for anything from financial services to
private hospital building in the Middle East. By
the end of 1978 Duranton Ltd was in hoc to the
tune of £375,000, or £2.2m at today's prices, to other Antony Gibbs companies.
Gizzard job
The set-up certainly exploited the Saudi
influence garnered by the SAS men in the early
1960s. Bernard Mills (pictured below), one of the
key commanders back in the Yemeni mountains and a
co-founder with Stirling of infamous 1960s
mercenary group Watchguard, joined the Duranton
board. An Arabic speaker, he became the firm's
roving representative before leaving the company
in 1979, during which time, he says, Duranton was
not yet involved in the SANGCOM project.
Thirty-five years on and now 80 years old, Mills
showed that you can take the man out of the
special forces, but not the special forces out of
the man, concluding a call from the Eye shack: "I
don't want to see my name appearing, thank you
very much, in Private Eye... Otherwise I shall
come down and probably slit your gizzard. Not
sure where a gizzard is, but it sounds not the
sort of thing you would like to have slit."
In 1980, when the Antony Gibbs group was bought
up by the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking
Corporation, Duranton was sold to Simec, the
Liechtenstein anstalt run by Somerfield and
Austin and channelled millions of pounds in
commissions until 1984, following which a
similar role was played by companies bearing the
Duranton name first in Ireland, then in Switzerland.
By this stage, with Somerfield retired, Austin
was top dog, running the Simec and Duranton
network from his own private island, Little Whale
Cay, in the Bahamas (see Eye 1329), from which,
now aged 70, he apparently continues to operate.
The SANGCOM contract itself rolled profitably on
under several new phases over the decades. In
1994 Cable & Wireless dropped out as prime
contractor and was succeeded by GPT, a joint
venture between GEC and Plessey which was taken
over by European conglomerate EADS in 2007. Then
in February 2010, a further £2bn extension was
quietly handed to GPT without any competition.
Ethics man
The most startling feature of the case is that
the payments by GPT to what are now Cayman
registered Duranton and Simec companies created
in 1982, continued long after the explosive
BAe/Al Yamamah scandal. GPT paid £14m to them
between 2007 and 2010, the payments approved in
Riyadh by a Ministry of Defence team that, the
Eye's revelations show, must have known what lay behind Simec and Duranton.
The dubious payments were even flagged up first
by an internal GPT whistleblower, financial
controller Mike Paterson, who was met with the
response ITom his parent company's compliance
officer that "I am prepared to accept some
corruption because I like my company better than
ethics" (see Eye 1331). Then, in January 2011, a
more public whistleblower, project director Lt
Col Ian Foxley, took details to the Serious Fraud
Office, whereupon the payments ceased.
Neither whistleblower, both intimately familiar
with the SANGCOM operation, could see any purpose
for the Simec and Duranton payments (or the flash
cars for Saudi officials that accompanied them).
The real reasons, it is now clear, are to be
found somewhere in the drifting political sands of the 1960s.
From Spiritual Warfare
by former UK witch queen Doreen Irvine
Until the middle of the 19th century, witchcraft
and devil worship seemed to have taken a back
seat. Although it was still going on behind the
scenes, more attention and interest was given to new scientific discoveries.
In 1951 however, the English courts repealed the
country's witchcraft act, a law almost forgotten
since 1735. Although to most people this seemed
insignificant, it proved a major breakthrough to
those who practised witchcraft. What had
previously been done in secret now became more
open, apart from the activities of the black
witches, who for the most part prefer to remain secret.
There are many thousands involved in some form of
occultism. In 1980 there were an estimated twenty
million people in Europe alone. Judging from the
increased interest in these things, the number may well have doubled by now.
In my first book From Witchcraft to Christ
(Concordia 1973), I described much of what went
on in the satanist temples, but much was omitted,
which I now feel should be exposed. The temples
of Satan were mostly situated in large houses
which belonged to the richer members of the
movement. Walls were torn down inside the houses
to provide space for at least 400 worshippers.
The temples were never left unattended; some
satanists were always in residence to guard the
temple from outsiders, and to care for the upkeep
of the temple and its contents.
The walls were covered with effigies of Satan,
half man, half beast, with cloven hoofs and
horns, protruding tongue and ears. Satan can
take on any form satanists wish. There are no seats for worshippers. Satanists
were there an hour before any ceremony began,
no-one was late. If you were late and did not
give a very good reason, you were punished by
whipping. When you worshipped the devil you stood for hours with arms
upraised, or you prostrated yourself on the floor, which
was usually made of marble, and engraved with
snakes, dragons and flames of fire. On the high
altar were cups, knives, bowls, snuffers and
candlesticks all made from solid gold and silver.
At the side of the altar was a throne-like seat,
where the chief satanist sat. The throne itself
was carved with expert skill and cunning, with
snakes, dragons and flames of fire. The chief
satanist's robes were made from the very best
black velvet, and embroidered in gold threads
with the same snakes, dragons and flames. All
this work must have taken a great deal of time
and money, but satanists spare no time or
expense. There is nothing cheap or imitative in
the satanist temples, but in fact, it is all an
imitation of what God has. Take the satanist
bible for instance. Because God has a book, the
Bible, the devil has to have one. They call it
the satanist's bible; I prefer to call it an evil
book. It is a very poor imitation indeed, since
it is filled with evil revelations from former
chief priests, which date back over centuries.
Here again, no expense was spared for the upkeep
of these ancient manuscripts; each one was
beautifully bound with gold. No-one could remove
them from the temples, except for the chief
satanist. Their main teaching, regarding the
origin and fall of Satan, has already been
described. They also teach that black is white
and white is black; that good is evil and evil is
good; and that light is darkness and darkness
light. Everything is twisted round the opposite
way. No matter how stupid this teaching sounds,
many believe it; I did once. When you are
repeatedly told the same thing, over and over
again, you begin to believe it; it is just like a
massive brain-washing. We get a very clear
picture of witchcraft and satanism from Isaiah
5:20: "Woe to those who call evil good and good
evil, who put darkness for light and light for
darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for
bitter. " When I first saw this in the Bible, I
was surprised, and showed it to other Christians
who were most enlightened by it; it exposes
witchcraft and satanism very well indeed.
The satanist book is six times thicker than the
average Bible, yet I was able to learn it by heart in a very short time.

Please consider seriously the reason why these elite institutions are not discussed in the mainstream press despite the immense financial and political power they wield?
There are sick and evil occultists running the Western World. They are power mad lunatics like something from a kids cartoon with their fingers on the nuclear button! Armageddon is closer than you thought. Only God can save our souls from their clutches, at least that's my considered opinion - Tony
