Summary: As we’ve expected right from the start, reporting crime (pension fraud) to Action Fraud (UK police) results in little action, no action, or very slow action (they say they aim to respond within 28 days); today we revisit the situation

ABOUT three weeks ago we formalised complaints to Action Fraud, which is like a division of British Police. The pension crime (embezzlement) of Sirius ‘Open Source’ was reported. The evidence was very clear. There are many victims and there are several more fallbacks here, in case the police drags its heels. We’ll spare details about those fallbacks, for strategic reasons. Either way, it is important to show how police in the land of famous monarchs actually deals with white-collar crimes that has many victims.

When you say something is illegal but fail to actually uphold and enforce the law, then it’s just a token or a “formality” (as this new article serves to illustrate). It’s a carte blanche to commit that crime and it rewards those who commit serious crimes against other people, objectively speaking.

Sirius has been trying to pretend to be a US company in recent years, likely for legal reasons (including the “Limited” in the UK). But no matter if it dubs itself SiriUS, SiriHK, SiriA or whatever… the chief is British, the loans are British, and almost all the staff is British. All those involved in the pension fraud — without exception — are British. This is a matter for British authorities, including British police, to investigate.

Remember that we as British taxpayers are entitled to get a good service from British cops as we pay their salaries, they basically work “for us” (or at least they’re supposed to, they’re expected to “serve and protect” the taxpayers). We are still waiting for as little as an E-mail from British police, but so far not even a call or a letter acknowledging they’re on the case or have made some progress. The sad thing is that we’re so cynical that this is what we expected and even told them.

In the next few parts we shall shed light on what various involved/impacted parties have to say about this, including legal facets of this conundrum. This is likely to carry on for several months more and perhaps even years if the Ombudsman gets involved. Inaction from cops and HMRC is a stain on the system as it emboldens the perception that those in power (like ‘Prince’ Andrew) are above the law and the rest of us are defenceless, rendered vulnerable for exploitation.

Stay tuned.

New: Excess deaths in UK rise

Description, in case Google takes down his videos again:

Excess deaths, dramatic increase, week ending 21 April 2023

www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/births…

The number of deaths registered in the UK in the week ending 21 April 2023

(Week 16)

Was 14,024

22.1% above the five-year average

2,540 excess deaths,

of these deaths, 615 involved COVID-19

England and Wales

Week 16, 12,420 deaths were registered in England and Wales

538 of these deaths mentioned novel coronavirus (4.3% of all deaths)

Of the 538 deaths involving COVID-19, 66.5% (358 deaths) had this recorded as the underlying cause of death

The number of deaths was above the five-year average

Private homes (29.0% above, 771 excess deaths)

Hospitals (20.2% above, 924 excess deaths)

Care homes (25.3% above, 525 excess deaths)

Other settings (11.7% above, 92 excess deaths)

Could Bradford Hill criteria help?

The larger the association, the more likely that it is causal.

Consistent findings observed by different persons in different places

Lack of alternative explanations

The effect has to occur after the cause

Greater exposure should generally lead to greater incidence of the effect.

A plausible mechanism between cause and effect is helpful

Coherence between epidemiological and laboratory findings increases the likelihood of an effect.

Occasionally it is possible to appeal to experimental evidence

Analogies or similarities between the observed association and any other associations.

Sometimes, reversibility

CHECKED about 1.5 hours ago to see if the 10 May 2023 ONS numbers were already online. They were indeed, maybe around 9:30AM.

What does the latest data tell us? Compare 2019 deaths count:

Now watch this year:

Focus on week 17, the latest on record. From 10,059 deaths in 2019 it rose to about 12.2k in the same week of this year, yet WHO tells us pandemic stuff matters no more and it’s time to get back to “normal”. Don’t listen to WHO. Rely on data, not bureaucrats and politicians who masquerade as health experts.

I left my job in December, one month after Techrights had turned 16 (it was known as “BoycottNovell” at first). Yesterday the site turned 16.5 — a fact that I only realised about an hour ago. Here’s “whois“:

Summary: Another small (or semi) milestone for us; it’s an opportunity for reflection

The site started when I was 24. I was a student at the time. I had begun writing my thesis months earlier and I didn’t feel eager to find a job in some centralised office. In 2007 I started working from home exclusively and that hasn’t changed since. The working environment evolved and improved over the years. When working in front of a computer it’s important to make things pleasant and last year I moved everything to a dedicated room, formerly the dining room. Here’s what it looks like this morning (minutes ago; I’ve since then added a plant to the beige table on the left, as there’s available space there).

The photo shows the 9 screens, 5 webcams, 4 mice, 3 large speakers (from 1994; they still work), 7 keyboards (two are external), and as of this morning (2 hours ago) there’s a cactus-like pair of plants on the table that I took out yesterday (because it’s getting warmer), the 16.5-year anniversary of Techrights.org. All these computers run GNU/Linux and they’re not expensive at all (refurbished, old, low-budget). Each serves its set of purposes. The electric bill is 1.5 pounds per person per day (inclusive of everything, cooking as well) as these machines dim down while AFK and there’s no GPU.

If 16.5 years from now the Web site does not exist it’s likely it’ll have already evolved for whatever comes after the Web, maybe something like Gemini or IPFS. We’re flexible enough to handle change and budget isn’t a problem because we are not a company.

Last year I started experimenting with a standing desk. With two soft carpets on the floor and ample space for weights it’s possible to also exercise a bit while reading. It’s like a form of therapy that is healthy not just for the body but also the mind. I’m stationed near the desk about 15 hours a day, on average.

We’re worse off even by lockdown standards (2020)

T is exceedingly frustrating to be governed by institutions or ‘public’ organisations funded by pharmaceutical companies (patent licensors) and their shareholders. The conflict of interest is profoundly yet rarely mentioned.

Based on the hard data, or the after-the-fact analysis, COVID-19 has left society far less healthy. In the UK and Ireland, for instance, far more people than one might expect are dying each day. The media doesn’t talk about it (or barely/seldom mentions it), but many critical thinkers have openly expressed concerns about these figures. The causes barely included suicides (they’re less than 5% of these gains); so what is it?

That WHO has become a bit of a COVID minimiser (not denier), helping to shape the narrative for companies whose products barely helped, says a lot about WHO and the UN. Don’t take health advice from these bureaucrats.

England and Wales death totals by week:

urther to what I published on Wednesday, here’s a breakdown of increase in deaths by age group, debunking the notion that it is impacting only very old people.

The number on the left is the total deaths for week 16 (latest on record) in 2019, compared to the same week in 2023 (shown on the right below), i.e. last month:

For ages 15-45, 321 compared to 251: 28% increase in fatalities
For ages 45-64, 1478 compared to 1100: 34.4% increase in fatalities
For ages 65-74, 1878 compared to 1446: 30% increase in fatalities

Seems like a national health crisis, but the media hardly talks about it, so let’s pretend it’s not happening.

Internal documents show evidence

Summary: The finances of Sirius are dodgy; with at least three different shells (in at least two countries) and an unknown number of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), it’s hard to know where money comes from and where it is going to (even the company’s registered address isn’t authentic anymore)

AS noted this morning, the police is far too slow (if not reluctant) to investigate crimes of Sirius ‘Open Source’, so let’s examine the facts, based on the Sirius Business Case as it was presented 12 months ago.

Quite a few people were involved in the blunders and the crimes. We chose not to name them. Anyway, of note are the following parts:

Where did the surplus go? Another country? Seems plausible. There we go:

They don’t even mention the Gates Foundation because of the non-disclosure agreement, but it’s what likely drew the CEO to the US because, according to him, it was the “first Sirius US client” (strange, right?) and it was never mentioned anywhere in writing.

Several things are noteworthy and might be relevant to the police investigation. First, in March the CEO was publicly advertising that he had money (about 100,000 pounds per year to offer in salaries). So where does he hide the money? Where did that money come from? In the report he kept secret from us the finances in the US. Well, maybe he stashed it aside over the years and now he hides money in the US (from his ex-wives), who knows…

The only other possibility is that he fakes everything or that he advertises openings for which he cannot even pay a salary, which itself is illegal (that’s worse when viewed from clients’ perspective due to unmet SLAs).

In May last year the company said nothing about its “US” subsidiary having money or losing money. If it claims to still have money, then victims of the company’s theft may want to sue. Sadly for them, this past October the company changed the address of both UK ‘shells’ to a phony address and there’s no comment on the matter from the accountancy. This shell game won’t end well. With two grown up girls in the UK and two more young girls in the UK the CEO (two failed marriages) is probably chased for many other expenses. He is a financial fugitive in the US now. It’s not a pretty picture. Based on office gossip, there were also infidelity issues (hearsay but very likely).
