I am sorry, but this is not from the actual ANONYMOUS hacking group. This is a doctored up discord. The video is missing certain 'signature' features (watermarking, coding and encryption keys hidden in the background). I'll let some people know, and they might just look into finding some of these nutters.

That's a rather well written critique of the situation. Stan Oliver is obviously a very erudite and sophisticated chap.

And as we know, "Simon Spaniard" recently posted a video on GOODF explaining that he's now started paying his mortgage again. In other words, do as I say not as I do. Happy to let you gamble your home away, but not his own.

There are three videos covering the eviction of Glynis Craggs. The second video (sort of) explains the reason that this mortgage has been in place for 27 years although there is still a bit of confusion ... actually i've tried three times to explain it but it still doesn't make sense. Essentially Glynis and her partner Graham remortgaged the house to buy a gym and they couldn't afford it. This is obviously all the fault of the mortgage broker who didn't do a proper affordability check.

The rest of this and the other two videos is an orgy of pseudo-legal claptrap, the usual complaints about fraudulent documentation and some mild bemoaning of the fascist state that Britain has now become. There may be some more nuggets in there somewhere but I must admit I lost the will to live part way through the third video.

The chap being interviewed in the second video is called "Ady" and I wonder if he might be Ady Sutcliffe who seems to be playing an increasing role in Response's legal team. EDIT - this is rubbish - the guy in the video is Ash Roberts of Response North East

Watching this video I couldn't help thinking how far the dress standard for legal professionals has fallen.

Perhaps the real ANONYMOUS could tell us. After all, they have an interest in keeping their reputation intact.

Oh yes, I forgot about that. Last I heard they were at the "semi-final" stage of deciding which bank it was to be.

It's "D-day" for Tom today. He's appearing in court at 10.00 to appeal the Order of Possession. Surely he can do nothing but lose and then the fun will start ....

The Court Service have very cleverly moved the case to a much smaller room in the Magistrates Court, presumably to limit the number of witnesses supporters idiots that can be present. There could be hundreds down the road at the Common Law jamboree though.

Could be in a smaller room at the Magistrates' Court because it's only a pathetic attempt at an appeal that will be turned down and they are just going through the necessary process? I think a judge can have as few or as many people as he wants in his court, and can include or exclude who he chooses.

It appears the judge was 90 minutes late for the hearing! You can follow the outcome and the associated protests here:

Did our hero demand to see the judge's oath?
Big big mistake if he didn't. :snicker:

Update from Tom outside the court (from about 3mins onward)
http://bambuser.com/v/5476425?v=m

He is going for breach of contract. He claims the original court committed an act of terrorism and he tells the reporter that today's judge is mistaken on some points.

Live streaming from outside the court: http://bambuser.com/v/5476648

The crowd angry, shouting, chanting and pushing the line of about ten police, trying to get into the court. Ceylon calls for calm, and calm is restored.

More police arrive.

A bloke with long hair and megaphone, northern accent, says the noise from the crowd is impeding Tom's chances of winning his appeal, so he asks the crowd to be peaceful.

Judge Godsmark asked why he had only just brought the appeal now, as the original decision had been made in 2012.
Mr Crawford, who is in remission from prostrate cancer, added: "I was in a position at the time where I wasn't physically or mentally capable of defending myself at court."
He also added: "I had no knowledge of the law. People [ Mark Haining (Ceylon ), Roger Hayes, Mr Ebert and Guy Taylor] showed me I could defend myself."

Interesting that Tom appears to be basing his appeal, at least in part, on the specific facts of his case, i.e. the endowment policy, change of terms etc and not only (or at all) on the "all mortgages are fraud", "documents are fake" nonsense that GOODF support. I guess he has a chance of some kind of victory which as long as it's based on the specific circumstances I won't begrudge him even though it will be trumpeted as a victory for GOODF and the day the world changed forever etc.

Outside the court - just a bunch of thugs spoiling for a bounce up. Good to see plenty of police there though.
