Earlier this month: If You Glorify Violence, Then Some People Will Eventually Do It | The Second Antisemitic Attack in Manchester on October 2nd Came From Brett Wilson LLP (Almost at the Exact Same Time as the First) | Brett Wilson LLP Acting in a Way That We Deem Antisemitic, Disrespectful, and Highly Insensitive | Safety Precautions and Hate Crimes

will say frankly, and upfront, that the accusations aren’t baseless. I firmly believe that all the evidence exists and the facts are on my side.

Highly irresponsible thugs did something really horrible 10 days ago. I won’t be able to comment about it fully until the case is over and other sites have said a lot more earlier today [1, 2]. This blog post will focus on more personal aspects.

10 days ago I wrote to the Court: “It is Yom Kippur today. We will respond to you tomorrow. This is important because we must also add to the bundle about 50 PDFs which will show the need for Adjoining of Case Numbers KB-2024-003529 and KB-2024-001270.”

This is an important message and the timing of the message was not of our own choosing. It was also minutes after a terror attack on a local synagogue.

It matters a lot because our legal advisor is a Jewish man who lived near that synagogue, which they (Brett Wilson LLP) are fully aware of; he went on BBC to say people painted swastikas on his own home. Aside from it, it’s Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year to him, so they basically sent threatening letters to both my wife and I on the equivalent of Xmas Eve at 4:30PM, then a very large number of pages (PDFs to both of us) on the equivalent of 10AM Xmas Day when people are literally fasting for over 24 hours (no water either, so health too is at risk), having always shown mean intent and already attempted to book the Hearing for the equivalent of Boxing Day; they attempted this a long time beforehand, back in January 2025.

How could they not know? I’ll write about this in the future.

And perhaps unintentionally (a subject to be covered another day or year), they also did this type of thing also during a funeral.

They’re not just cruel, they’re reckless and extremely insensitive. We’ll treat this accordingly and report what they did based on the hard evidence.

The SRA will be informed fully of what they did.

Then again, consider the fact they represent alleged sympathisers of Hamas. One client, who commented about October 7 2023 only several days after the attack (as if he wasn’t too sure what to say or whether it was a bad thing), made a public statement tacitly justifying acts of terrorism as a route towards peace.

It is my honest opinion that Brett Wilson LLP is a highly antisemitic firm. I’ve already seen plenty of circumstantial evidence of this. This firm also attracts antisemitic clients.

Earlier this year: Eternal Vigilance

| Always Safety First

T is important to keep free press alive in the UK. Protecting it from hostile forces means making sacrifices, never surrendering to bullies.

As Rianne and I both explained [1, 2], over a year ago we filed lawsuits against the ‘Hulk Hogan of UEFI’, who had done truly horrible things to us and to many others. He promotes and works for monopoly. He defames people who work against monopoly.

Last year he hired aggressors in London (because he’s based in the US) to drown us with about 3,000 of pages of legal papers. Last week they did truly horrible things, which I’ve since explained in my personal blog: If You Glorify Violence, Then Some People Will Eventually Do It | The Second Antisemitic Attack in Manchester on October 2nd Came From Brett Wilson LLP (Almost at the Exact Same Time as the First) | Brett Wilson LLP Acting in a Way That We Deem Antisemitic, Disrespectful, and Highly Insensitive

They now try to force matters by doing what I deem to be borderline hate crimes; and if their client attends in person at some hearing, as security is of utmost importance to us, we must also request special security because he publicly boasts about wanting to hurt and even stab people he dislikes; he also did truly horrible things to my wife, she cannot be in the same room as him. It’s too much risk and his litigation partner (represented by the same lawyers and barrister) was already in prison for strangling women and worse. It’s really bad that journalists in the UK are treated so badly by Brett Wilson LLP’s American clients, who actually did truly horrible things (which I merely reported on).

At the end we’ll pursue reform in the UK; we cannot let the US (“No Kings”, except their President) abuse people in the UK like this.

Last week: If You Glorify Violence, Then Some People Will Eventually Do It | The Second Antisemitic Attack in Manchester on October 2nd Came From Brett Wilson LLP (Almost at the Exact Same Time as the First)

T is not our intention to theorise, but where there is smoke there is usually a fire.

Today we decided to break the silence on this matter, having just reported this matter to the UK High Court.

Brett Wilson LLP did something truly evil to us and we intend to hold it accountable.

As it turns out, we’re not alone, as even clients of Brett Wilson LLP are suing Brett Wilson LLP (“The Lawsuit by Clients of Brett Wilson LLP Against Brett Wilson LLP is Officially On, It is Progressing, The ‘Experts’ Pick Outside Law Firms (RPC and Mills & Reeve) to Spare Them From Litigants in Person”).

Law firms live and die (or thrive/survive/perish) based on the reputation they earn for themselves.

The word “evil” may seem vague, sometimes subjective, but what happened last week isn’t unprecedented (it’s part of a pattern) and that it happened just minutes after a terror attack on a synagogue near to us must be documented. There’s a personal element to this story, so we’ll blog this in the personal site.

Stay tuned for more.

By attacking people on The Day of Atonement

magine our surprise. So the ‘Hulk Hogan of UEFI’ decided to sic his dodgy lawyers at us at a seemingly ‘strategic’ time.

They are very toxic people who tacitly justify terrorism. We were reminded of this just minutes after the terror attack on a synagogue in Manchester, yet they persisted with threats and massive PDFs all day long (since the night before). How would they feel if we did this to them on Xmas Day and moreover on a Xmas Day when they can neither eat nor drink for 25 hours? Yes, it was the equivalent of this.

It would certainly appear like Brett Wilson LLP’s aim is to torture people 1) during the holiest of days (with fasting) and 2) right after terror attacks 2 miles from their home.

We’ll hold Brett Wilson LLP accountable for this.

HAVE just returned home, feeling both satisfied and upset. I basically just got back from sun-soaking trip, saved about 70 pounds, but the annoying thing is, I spent a lot of time reporting injustice and there was a corporate effort to cover up the injustice instead of tackling this injustice.

Let me explain.

Today at the till I was served by the same lady whom I reported before, after she had stolen one pound from me (in change) THREE TIMES IN A ROW…

Not kidding.

I’ve been trying to avoid her since then and when reporting her I said the goal wasn’t to get her sacked but to stop the stealing (it’s impossible to get such basic maths wrong “by accident” three times in a row).

Today I could not avoid her. She just sat in place of a colleague when I was in a queue (taking a colleague’s seat)… and did it to me ONCE AGAIN the same short-changing (one pound; same as always) along with the same excuse, so again I had to wait there for a boss to “correct” the mistake, then stood there at Customer Service to report the person (who already did this to me and is still there… and still up to the same old things). My assumption is that she can short-change (one pound) about 10 people per shift and then pocket a tenner without the register detecting an anomaly. Maybe she tips herself (bonus) that way… but at whose expense and at what cost to the reputation of the business, the time/patience/composure of the customers and so on?

But wait, it gets worse.

At first Customer Service turned down my request to report this worker or their stealing, in effect covering up for her. They decided to say all the managers were “at the/a meeting” (which I doubted, it’s just a classic excuse and that shop has about 10 managers on duty). I persisted, persevered, and only after (several other) further arguments they magically found a manager who could come out and pick the report. He seemed a little junior for a manager, but let’s not be too judgemental of appearances. They then made an excuse for why a manager becomes available when the issue becomes more of a nuisance or a risk. Why lie to the customer? Never lie to the customers. Whether the customer is “always right” or not, do not lie.

This is really awful and I said that if they have staff stealing from the shop, that’s one thing, but don’t steal from the customers. Pay them better perhaps; one man next to me at the till had a good joke about how “they need to make money”. He didn’t doubt this was intentional; it kept happening. It will probably keep happening unless I can avoid this cashier every time in the future. But what about other people? They might think it’s an accident or not even notice.

Businesses being apathetic to staff that steals is a very big problem. I’ve already spent about an hour (all combined) dealing with and reporting this issue. They don’t compensate me for the time and trouble; heck, it doesn’t seem like they even do anything with my reports, so what’s the point reporting it to them? Maybe even an external entity would treat this issue as too “low-value” to merit proper investigations. This means people can get away with a lot of cheating (or petty thieving) as long as it’s not “big enough”.

In hindsight, it was always hard to get a hold of a boss to report these issues too. It was slow, cumbersome, almost impossible – maybe by design. Maybe Customer Service people even get trained in stonewalling people.

The world is becoming a cruel place, not just to staff but also to customers.

was going to report something negative, but at the last minute there was a breakthrough.

On May 23^rd we reported issues to Nationwide and today at the branch I spoke to 3 people, one of whom over the telephone. Only the third person whom I spoke to finally took the feedback seriously and passed it on. I reported an issue with their platform and also an issue reporting much-needed issues to their so-called “IT team”, which lacks a contacting mechanism. Assuming they didn’t just pretend to pass it on, they will at least take the issues into consideration.

Summary: Pension fraud and other crimes rendered my last employer incapable of recruiting and retaining staff; we want to make this a cautionary tale for other companies and technical workers out there while at the same time working towards full accountability

I was running background checks on this company as “Seems too good to be true” situation,” a person told us about Sirius ‘Open Source’. It later turned out that this person was nearly ready to work for the company. But a little bit of research changed the plans.

As it turns out, our series continues to have a lot of impact even about a year later. We knew the company very well (I was there since 2011 and my wife since 2013), but we didn’t know until this year about the pension fraud. Things got really bad in the last 4 years and especially the last year (2022). The video above explains more.

“I’m just starting my Linux career,” the person above told me. He was under the impression Sirius was based in two places, so I had to clarify that the company is almost 100% UK, but it is hiding in the US (dodging the law since around 2019). Apparently it’s not so uncommon a practice (there is a new shell in the US, bearing the name “Inc.”).

“I’m stuck in a position as this would be a good stepping stone for me,” the person said, “but I don’t want to deal with company drama.”

“Also they offered an extremely low amount (25k) for a technical role (understandably, helpdesk but Linux based… hmm).”

“Reading your posts about them being skimpish with cash I can completely understand,” he added.

I explained to him that some salaries were in fact reduced over time, not even taking inflation into account (my highest per-hour salary was in 2011 when I had just joined the company!) and one co-worker from the southern hemisphere, now living with his wife in England, was paid 21k for the same position as his colleagues. So there was an element of exploitation and even a ground for litigation (if he chose to pursue that; it’s not cheap). Yes, same role, different salary.

I also mentioned the nepotism, lack of holiday pay and so on. There’s the whole “Google is your friend” mindset as well. “One of the questions I was being asked is “What are your skills like with Google workspace etc”,” the person recalled. So they’re still rejecting “Open Source”, even though it is in the company’s name.

“I hope this page gets more exposure so that people don’t fall for this,” the person added. “I’m still in two minds, because choices are pretty limited for junior devops type work and exposure in large enterprises.”

Remember this was in 2023 when companies laid off many people while imposing some strict “hiring freeze” policies. So many people were desperate to either get in or merely stay inside.

But “the gig won’t last long,” I told him, so it might not be worth the trouble. It can get uglier when HMRC and police get involved. This is an ongoing issue and we’ll make further progress.

There’s a lot more in the video above, but I’ve carefully omitted some details to protect the person in question from reprisal.
