The Peer and the Gangster-a very British cover-up (Daniel Smith) – Jumpin’ Jack Flash-David Litvinoff and the Rock’n’Roll Underworld (Keiron Pim):

The Peer and the Gangster-a very British cover-up:

July 1964, the Sunday Mirror ran a front-page story headlined: PEER AND A GANGSTER: YARD ENQUIRY. While the article withheld the names of the subjects, the newspaper reported that the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police had ordered an investigation into an alleged homosexual relationship between ‘a household name’ from the House of Lords and a leading figure in the London underworld. Lord Boothby was the Conservative lord in question, and Ronnie Kray the infamous gangster.

Playland-secrets of a forgotten scandal/The Abuse of Power-the true story of sex and scandal at the heart of London’s elite (Anthony Daly):

Rarely is a book so disturbing & so shocking. Equally so, this unusually powerful opus has to be one of the most revealing & revelatory ever, & I mean ever, to be printed on the relating subjects & phenomena. It is absolutely indispensable to anyone researching or trying to understand the depth of the disorder & distortion, & the kind of preternatural corruption that lurks in the nexus of British power & beyond.

Meat Rack Boy-unloved unwanted sold (Michael Tarraga):

“this is a short, but true story of my life – Michael Peter Tarraga. I’ve given my story the title Meat Rack Boy because that’s what I was: on sale as a piece of meat. Discarded as a baby with my twin brother, whose photo is on the front cover of this book, and my two year-old sister. We were the children of a prostitute left at the hospital in which we were born, and not even taken home. Then in the ‘care’ of authorities throughout my childhood and sold for sex like a piece of meat. Ripe for the plucking, a chicken. That’s what they called boys like me – a ‘chicken’.

The Mountbattens – their lives and loves (Andrew Lownie):

I have absolutely no interest in the despoiled scamily. The very concept offends me. I have long since disengaged. You can practically measure this countries stupidity, intellectual confinement & washed-raw brains by the insensate, unqualified & unjustified “blind” revelry in these super-scroungers who sit on the withered hide of this carcass of a country waving & grinning.

Poisoner in Chief-Sidney Gottlieb and the CIA Search for Mind Control (Stephen Kinzer):

another episode from the abyss. This one is especially significant & has gone beyond theory or supposition with the guilty bodies of this gigantic criminal conspiracy having been forced into admission & disclosure. Negligence, sidelining, amnesia & diminishment in scale & details keep this unforgivable & incomparable cataclysm as minimal & inconspicuous as possible, despite its seismic & seminal aftershock. It also enjoys the fortuity of its own contextual camouflage, as it is conceptually so insane, so malefic & implausible, that most would dismiss it at distance as untrue or improbable.

Indefensible – seven myths that sustain the global arms trade (Paul Holden):

lets start with now! with Saudi Arabia’s illegal war of aggression with it’s impoverished neighbour Yemen. the Saudi regime, a rogue, terrorist, tyrannical & fundamentalist entity – but also possessing immense wealth – is armed, sustained, supported & excused by the west, most fervently by the US & UK who make it all possible with continuing sanction & sheltering.
