In another sighting in London, a suspected talent agent has been caught.

These are nefarious individuals who create halls of power in media in fictitious ways to fix outcomes for clients.

The government has announced a house-building plan to add 1.5 million new homes to the national housing stock.
As usual, local authorities are expected to take on the burden of ensuring Labour’s affordable housing component is kept high on the agenda in their local areas.
It leaves the issue of who gets what so far unaccounted for.
It’s not clear what will end up in whose hands. After years of delays, b&b’s filling up, and hotels given over to the Home Office for their asylum work this core part of the strategy is still left unanswered.
It’s a bewildering issue, but there’s no guarantee any single family in need of a home will get one by a Labour government anytime soon. It isn’t exactly made clear who will be relieved of their homelessness or sub-standard accommodation by this plan as yet.
If it were simply a “build, and move in” policy it would have been achieved by now.
However, as politicians dither the waiting list only grows longer.
Today Huw Edwards appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court on charges relating to child pornography.
The case involves receiving indecent images via a messaging app from an adult male he’d been in contact with. It’s a concerning development after a long career at the BBC for Edwards.
He left in April following a separate scandal involving soliciting sexualised images from a teenager
The scenes outside the court today were sedate. There were numerous reporters, camera operators and others waiting for the exit of Edwards following his guilty plea.
It appears he will be sentenced on 16 September later this year.
A pair of suspected human traffickers were located, this time on the London tube network earlier today.

They’re vital to increasing our ability to deal a blow to human traffickers to put an end to their sordid trade.
A secretive talent agent has been located in London this afternoon. He’s known for “fixing” roles in media for paying clients.

The sighting is a first of its kind in relation to fairness in media hiring and workplace standards.

This morning a location of one “hub” of a prominent New York-based newspaper has been exposed.
As you can see this rudimentary footage demonstrates the level of operation needed to function out of place in journalism.
In a shocking revelation ConservativeNewsSite.com can reveal the results of an extensive investigation into the shadowy network of journalists and criminals who actually help run the news operation in New York.
It was possible to do so outside of the city and state because the trouble has spread so much further and wider than a large and famous city such as the Big Apple and has encompassed so many more lives.
It starts with an uncompromising truth: there are journalist’s at the New York Times who really don’t like men. I don’t say that because I am one but because it’s become true to say it.
There are female journalists who don’t like men...
This is the truth that underpins this journalist’s experience of having to evade the line of sight and interrogation of a false way of journalism that seems to have corrupted the newspaper in recent years.
It hasn’t been pleasant and at times it’s been too intense for words.
The particular journalist in question for me is a lady who I’ll refer to as “Y”. She isn’t a polite, sophisticated, or affluent employee of the newspaper at all. Y doesn’t fit the stereotypical mould of a journalist in the public’s mind’s eye at all.
It just isn’t true with her.
Y has made great efforts – not strides – in trying to get to me but I had to evade her capture.
This is because she has a history of pitting men against each other in extremely disparate groups that she creates. It’s her way of testing to see who is the more manly candidate and therefore judging or assessing the rightness of their cause or purpose in life.
It’s primitive and not a rudimentary way of doing journalism at all.
She also has a habit of being found out in the wrong company.
It’s her tenacity that helps her to move around places like the UK so quickly and easily but it’s never for a good cause. In some instances she’s led to the location of possible terrorists because of her attempts to make contact and it’s the reason for her unpopularity over here.
It’s so desperate at times that she inculcates a feeling of fear that journalism is all-pervasive and it’s only journalism that pays the bills. This simply is not true.
In looking below the surface of the entire project it became clear that the way of The New York Times overseas is not so tight as it may feel at home in America.
It emerges that NYT journalist’s have a tendency to try to recruit petty criminals like house burglars and pickpockets because they resemble the work and attitude of journalists in New York.
According to one journalist I spoke to who I won’t name but works extensively across journalism in New York, it isn’t a pretty picture at home or at work for these people. Their personal lives are divided between loyalties they’ve created and the sort of loyalties that exist in the workplace.
It can be difficult at times.
Their ‘network’ however is responsible for some instances of gross harassment and a few very real and significant near misses. In the fulcrum of trying to get a story or follow a lead they’ve encountered some extremely powerful people and caused a lot of distress along the way.
In other ways the evidence for their work stretches even deeper in American lore itself.
It’s clear that it’s on the minds of the American people and in my opinion it’s there for a reason. It matters in America to tell the truth and there’s an inherent suspicion of those who don’t do it.
The real point or purpose of politics is to show change locally, but it just isn’t happening.
One of the disheartening features of modern life is the tendency to go “all in” for modern fads and phases that really pass us by with a few lessons learnt but no real life experience.
This is the experience of so many who set out to work with high hopes but feel dashed against rocks of hopelessness because there is so much distraction over political causes and little to show for it.
The higher echelons of MI5 used to believe everything was settled on their part and that operational difficulties were “lower down” the “pecking order” so to speak. This isn’t a snobbish or “high society” attitude but it’s a lazy prevailing attitude that exists in those who never really grabbed onto anything in life.
They privately blame it on themselves but their profession is to look for a culprit elsewhere.
It may be in the language or it may be in the suit that others wear.
There’s sometimes an importance that can come from a look someone has but this only involves false feelings of intimidation and inferiority. It warps a person’s thinking and makes them act in irrational ways.
In some sense these two points are aligned. There’s a way of seeing politics as everyone else’s fault but feeling ashamed about it ourselves too. There’s also what I said before – a way of seeing life as blameable but ultimately the culpability falls on us.
In other words, we die too.
The failures at the heart of MI5 also have to do with this but it’s so much more.
There is a sense that protest attitudes already prevailed through the ranks of some departments. It’s not an impromptu protest that brought it up but the protest ‘lore’ of the past that did it.
There are some protests we can launch ourselves because we think it’s right.
One of these is the cause of feminism which some in the intelligence services decided to make into an issue.
It’s clear that in some quarters of government there are significant numbers of females to males and in others the opposite is true. It just seems to be a quirk rather than a fact of life.
The ‘protest’ started out as a polite discussion but soon turned to acrimony since some were led to believe their statements wouldn’t be taken out of context but taken as being observations of “facts” as it were.
It wasn’t that male operatives or female analysts felt one way or the other. It’s just their line of work is questioning and not solving issues that relate to human complaints.
They raised dilemmas based on examples and put forward statistics that weren’t challenges but were mere Wikipedia-style statements that were designed to drive the debate and not a conclusion.
The less senior members of a few departments took issue with a lack of certainty over this issue they raised in the first place. This led to a worsening of attitudes and eventually entailed a downturn in morale.
It isn’t unresolvable but people are sometimes hard to deal with anyway.
It took analysis of what motivated their accusations and what tone or attitudes were involved to unpick the argument. It was resolved as a valid point raised but recognised as something that would take much longer to fully establish than to just “see” as a matter of fact in the first place.
This week a case is due at Westminster Magistrates Court regarding Huw Edwards, a former BBC journalist.
I intend to be there for it.
It’s a sensitive subject involving child pornography. However, it’s significant to journalism in the UK.
Let’s see what it portends.
A suspect alleged to have involvement in high-level crimes has been sighted in Reading.

His whereabouts are notoriously difficult to pin down and he has different guises to conceal his activities.
The lineup for the Tory leadership contest has been revealed.
The six MP’s making a go of it are revealed in a graphic on X.

In the mix are Priti Patel, firebrand former Home Secretary, and Kemi Badenoch, an outgoing former Secretary of State for Business and Trade.
It remains to be seen how these candidates will fair against each other.
Rishi Sunak’s successor will have a difficult task after an historic election defeat and resurgent Labour party.
In another stunning turn, an activist leader of another insurgent group has been located.
He’s alleged to be a member of “Fingers And Nails”. They’re thought to use subversive tactics to undermine business.

As a result of this they’ve caused severe disruption to others in their line of work.
The Conservative Party are on a hunt to find a new leader.
The nominations close tomorrow and after 2:30pm it will be possible to know who wants to lead it.
It takes over three months to declare the winner, so settle in for the ride. It’s due to be bumpy.
