🙃

"According to the CIA Factbook, Kurdistan is home today to some 28 million Kurds, of whom 14.5 million are in Southeastern Turkey"

Will return to this later...

"Nadhim Zahawi confirmed was Chair of Le Cercle from 2015 - 2017."

Now back to Nadhim...

Nadhim Zahawi is co-founder and former CEO of YouGov with Stephan Shakespeare (not Stephen's original name)
wikispooks.com/wiki/YouGov

Cute touch though, as Zahawi has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Stratford-on-Avon since 2010

"Stephan Shakespeare is the former owner of the ConservativeHome website (now owned by Lord Ashcroft) .."

"Stephan Shakespeare was born as Stephan Kukowski in 1957 in Mönchengladbach, where his German father, a journalist, was the German Press Liaison Officer of Headquarters British Army of the Rhine. "

🤔

" Stephan was also an artist (as Stephan Kukowski) creating the imaginary "The Brunch Museum", together with the #fluxus artist George Brecht, first exhibited in London in 1976."

Let me guess.. heads to Edge[dot]org...

"..my inclusion in a small group of young artists invited by Fluxus artist Dick Higgins to attend a series of dinners with John Cage - an ongoing seminar .. that focused on the ideas of Norbert Wiener, Claude Shannon, and Marshall McLuhan." John Brockman

Stephan Kukowski took the name of his wife Rosamund Shakespeare after marrying her

> The Surrealist Group in England

will expand another time..

"Stephan Shakespeare became involved in politics, using the name Shakespeare, first as a political commentator and then as Jeffrey Archer’s Campaign Director during and after his failed London mayoral campaign"

No doubt another thread in the making..

Soo, it seems that Nadhim Zahawi first entered politics around the age of 27 when he became Wandsworth councillor in 1994

for West Putney

John Major was PM and David Mellor was MP for Putney at the time..

Mellor described as part of the 'Jeffrey Archer mafia' by The Spectator

spectator.co.uk/article/the-re…

'Archer told host Gloria De Piero that no less than 6 of the members of the organising committee of his 2000 London mayoral bid are now leading Tory MPs'

including : Zahawai, Sajid Javid, Priti Patel, Kwasi Kwarteng

🤔

"Archer's long time nemesis Michael Crick noted back in 2010 that Zahawi was the fourth of Archer's personal assistants to become a Conservative MP following David Faber.. and David Mellor and Richard Ryder, who both made it to John Major's cabinet table."
bbc.co.uk/blogs/newsnigh…

"Former health minister David Mellor wanted to "deal straight away" with demands for compensation from victims of the contaminated blood scandal during his time in office - more than thirty years ago. In 2022, those affected are still waiting."
chroniclelive.co.uk/news/health/he…

"Compensation for victims of the infected blood scandal could run into billions of pounds after a government commissioned report suggested thousands of people should receive minimum payments of £100,000 each."

Hmm.. another 'tainted blood' scandal

theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/j…

"Sir Robert Francis QC, was asked to make recommendations for a framework for compensation and redress for people infected after being given factor VIII blood products that were contaminated with HIV and hepatitis C imported from the US in the 1970s and 1980"

Needs a deep dive..

""Lady Archer today went public to defend her disgraced husband on accusations of misappropriating funds raised for the Kurds in the 1990s"" - 2001
theguardian.com/world/2001/aug…

"What was "the Simple Truth"?

Rod Stewart, Paul Simon, Sting ..were among the artists who gave their services for free after Mr Archer, having seen pictures of starving Kurds on the news on his 51st birthday, was moved to set up the charity in conjunction with the Red Cross."

"He also employed two Kurdish aides, Broosk Saib and Nadhim Zahawi, whom he controversially dubbed "Lemon Kurd and Bean Kurd."

Was the concert a success?
It seemed so at the time. At a press conference on June 1991, a beaming Jeffrey Archer held up a cheque for £57,042,000 ."

"It also led the then prime minister, John Major, to recommend Jeffrey Archer for a peerage - something the honours committee had already rejected him for once before. This time he was successful.

What happened next?
This is what Scotland Yard are currently investigating."

"It was subsequently revealed that the concert itself raised very little, with the bulk of the £57m coming from large-scale aid from overseas governments, including £10m pledged by the British government. Much of this aid had already been committed before the Simple Truth event."
