I'd just like to say this to my many kind followers and supporters, to dispel any misunderstandings.
Short of confessions by the men who murdered my brother - and we know who most of them are - we will never see justice for my brother Daniel.

And here's why: /1 The last prosecution collapsed in 2011 because it could not assure the court that it was in possession of all of the relevant documents in the case and - as my solicitor put it - because of the weight of previous police corruption and misconduct. /2

You see, we're not European us lot. We're an island nation.
Okay, we've got a German king, and yes, we've had Danish kings and French kings too. And oh yeah, the last queen's husband was Greek and the current royals are half Greek and half German...../1 And yes, granted, our language is Germanic (Anglo-Saxon) with a heavy overlay of Norman French, Latin and bits of Greek, all true.

But no, we're not Europeans! Never!!

Now, after 35 years, I find myself at last free to legally speak publicly with the support of an eight-year-long government commissioned, inquiry about the depth and the scope of the rottenness I encountered in my country's most powerful police force. It spanned every single rank of the force, reached into the top echelons of the press, and even into the office of the PM Cameron. Like a toxic mycelium it had infected the very wellsprings of power in our culture.

The core of Britain, its government, has rotted completely. This is not new, but it has accelerated rapidly since Brexit where a catalogue of lies and greed prevailed. A government so steeped in lies and corruption cannot reform as it is in constant denial and cover-up mode. This rottenness will spread and the degradation of our institutions will continue.

One of the worst, if not *the* worst culprits in all of this has been our unaccountable, feebly regulated, oligarch owned, offshore based, tax-dodging, Tory-touting press.

We see the "normalisation" of a top public servant flagrantly obstructing the conduct and timing of a public inquiry, and her denial being described by the inquiry chair as a continuation the very same "institutional corruption" that the panel found in @metpoliceuk... over a period of more than three decades. Namely, putting the reputation of @metpoliceuk before the interests of truth and justice on numerous occasions as exemplified, detailed. sourced and footnoted in the 1250 page report in the HoC library and on the web.

I hope any of you who saw my appearance before the London government's "Policing a Crime Select Committee" today will understand is that firstly: /1 I was trying to distil what has essentially been 34 years of mental torture inflicted on myself and those I love by a police service that by rights we should respect and hold dear as a vital pillar of our civilisation. 2/

Dick, House, Ephgrave, and Blair (top serving or former MPS officers) have had the brass neck to issue a naked denial to the conclusions of a report listing countless, evidenced examples of corrupt behaviour designed to protect the organisation. In other words, they are repeating PRECISELY the same sin of which the #DanielMorgan Panel accuses their organisation in its report.

Senior anti-corruption officer DAC Roy Clark first lied to me about the quality of the first investigations; said I was "verging on paranoid" in an internal communication and then went off to become Director of Investigations at the Independent Police Complaints Commission. Such is the rot that has been allowed to fester for years in this organisation, and which I have been forced to watch for 34 years.

In 2011, when the last Daniel Morgan prosecution failed, Acting Commissioner Tim Godwin told the Metropolitan Police Authority that the first investigation into my brother's murder had been "tainted by corruption" /1 And that over many years the Met had failed to face up to that corruption. This was a courageous statement, in my view, but we felt the corruption had extended much further than the first inquiry. And that ignoring corruption is *per se* corruption. /2

The past three years since Brexit, while holding a panel of inquiry to account for its work, have been emotionally arduous in the extreme. My mother died as too in this period. 1/ The strongest emotions throughout this period have been anger and fear. Anger at the blatant lies being told in the public arena and, simultaneously at the damage that police lies done to my family's lives.

Lies, and the agendas of the powerful were everywhere I looked. 2/

In the US House, they're currently showing video and pics of our now PM and a Russian spy (a Mr Mifsud) at another gathering before a House committee.

Both men appear to be quite pleased with themselves - and each other. Boris also likes an expensive game of tennis with the husband of one of Putin's former ministers.

The man pays extremely well, I hear. But then de Pfeffel is terrific value for money.

Cressida Dick is a person of interest to me, to use police- speak. She and I have what I would describe as unfortunate relationship. I won't bore anyone with a detailed history, but my conclusions are:

1) that she has shown sub-zero willingness to cooperate with the DMIP, 2) She is not a progressive Commissioner of Police in my experience. All of her actions say that she is doing her utmost to prevent and/or delay public insight into what I would describe as some very, very perverted and disturbing policing and its multiple nasty spin-offs.
