Who are the people who make up Portsmouth’s – Pompey’s – old-guard Establishment? – I'm a globetrotting researcher and activist

Sorry folks, I am not in the habit of “shopping” people but these entanglements are highly unethical, to say the least, and these folks can make your life a living hell. Below are some names and hints to warn you and possibly enable you to protect yourself.

Amberley Security – locksmiths; among other things will help make sure that your locks will continue to be easily pickable, when asked

CAB – probably merely some of its staff, not all of it (but be very careful, better safe than sorry)

Civic Offices – individual employees who terminate or put a temporary hold or greenlight for example people’s housing benefits, or who access information about citizens in the computer systems at the Civic Center, for example on behalf of Grant Murphy, such as that middle-aged light-haired man whose name I don’t know yet but who first popped up in connection with Grant Murphy (hung around to eavesdrop), then kept popping up (and who apparently had me investigated for fraud?)

Dave – foreman at Grant Murphy’s business undertakings; loyal lackey

Downey, Roger – runs a motorcycle shop; is a gullible lackey, but he also likes kicking at people when they are down, whether financially ruined or physically unwell or just severely depressed, because it

makes him feel important and he likes that feeling

Electricians – those associated with people like Grant Murphy; particularly those who went to primary school with them in the Pompey born and bred squad

Flaherty, Michael – solicitor

Lancaster, David – former judge and former solicitor; went to prison for three years after a BBC undercover sting operation; now personal adviser to Grant Murphy, often serving as his right hand and even representing him, for example sending emails in his name; he also appears to deploy his experience and network to find trouble tenants who can be moved in to help drive out other tenants

Murphy, Grant – real estate developer and landlord; obsessive control freak (not in terms of quality control but because he’s somewhat paranoid and slightly unhinged); among other things will deliberately deploy and install tenants to harass other tenants and ask them to complain about those other tenants; makes use of staff at Civic Offices; pal of Vernon-Jackson

Smith, Andy – officer at Portsmouth County Court

Tenants, fake – powerless lackeys; can be asked to harass other tenants and simultaneously record video on their phones to make it look like the harassed tenant is the problem; can be moved around between properties; can be asked to vandalize another tenant’s home, leave dead mice in it etc, cause persistent low-decibel nightly noise problems, make it look like they are drug dealers etc to drive out other tenants

Vernon-Jackson, Gerald – career politician whose mother was a politician too (see also above under Civic Offices)

Woodgate, Kirsten – solicitor

Young, Thomas – possibly now former Portsmouth City Council employee who worked as Benefits Assessment Officer at the Civic Offices in June 2018 (see also above under Civic Offices)
