FORMER PM Gordon Brown wants a criminal investigation into wrongdoing at Rupert Murdoch’s British newspapers.
The Metropolitan Police are resisting.
Brown has just upped the ante …

IF ANTISEMITISMin Britain is so bad, why are two Israelis coming to live here for every British Jew who emigrates to Israel?
Press Gang editor Paddy French had given Prince Harry, Liz Hurley and Sir Simon Hughes — all claimants in the case — a copy of the book during a recess.
French was introduced to the claimants by their legal team who appreciated the work he and co-author Roy Greenslade had done on the Fake Sheikh aspects of the News Group litigation.
The book includes a chapter on Harry’s case against the Murdoch empire which was settled in January 2025.
Back in 2001, when the prince was still a schoolboy, he was stitched up by Mazher Mahmood, News of the World editor Rebekah Brooks and Prince Charles’ private office.
A sensational front page story falsely claimed that Charles had persuaded Harry to stop taking drugs.
You can buy a copy of Rogue — price £15 — here.
ROGUE IS the second book to come out of the Press Gang stable.
The other is an examination of the anti-Muslim reporting of the late Times reporter, Andrew Norfolk.
We’re offering both books — with a combined cover price of £25 — free to new paid subscribers.
You’ll also be helping Press Gang in its continuing campaign against rogue journalism.
WHEN ANDREW Norfolk died last year, press obituaries lauded him as one of the greatest investigative journalists of modern British history.
Swept aside were serious criticisms of Norfolk’s work — including from the industry watchdog IPSO.
This article shows that much of his work of on Muslim issues was based on rogue journalism.
In some of this reporting “Saint” Andrew Norfolk was little more than a charlatan with a press card.

THE ZIONIST project in Israel is beginning to unravel.
Jews are leaving the country in unprecedented numbers.
The chair of an Israeli parliamentary committee calls it a “tsunami”.
Why is the BBC silent on its role in Raffi Berg’s libel action against Owen Jones?
Is it because its lawfare — a SLAPP action designed to muzzle criticism of the Corporation’s coverage of Palestine?

THE INSIDE, untold story of how Mazher “Fake Sheik” Mahmood’s tainted evidence led to the collapse of a dozen prosecutions.

PRESS GANG has been quiet for the past six months.
There’s a reason.
Editor Paddy French has been working on a major project with media commentator Roy Greenslade.
It’s a forensic account of the sordid career of Rupert Murdoch’s “Fake Sheik” — Mazher Mahmood.
He was gaoled in 2016 for conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
It will be published next month — more details shortly.

This kicks off the Press Gang autumn season. Among the articles on the stocks are:
The House of Farage
PRESS GANG takes a trip to the seaside …
… to have a closer look at the Reform leader’s new “home” in Clacton.
The James Murdoch Mystery
RUPERT MURDOCH’S youngest son dramatically called out his father’s right wing editorial policies and left the board of the family business in 2020.
And yet he remains a director of Elon Musk’s Tesla.
Saint Andrew Norfolk
LAST MONTH saw the formal canonisation of the late Times reporter with a high profile memorial at St Brides, the journalists’ church on Fleet Street.
This, and a series of obituaries, have engaged in “narrative cleansing” — removing all traces of Norfolk’s highly damaging attacks on Britain’s Muslim community.
White Grooming Gangs
KEIR STARMER and the media establishment are not telling the truth about grooming gangs.
To frame the issue as an Asian problem, they’ve had to purge white grooming gangs from the debate.
Israel and the Gaza Genocide
THE “ZEALOTS for Zionism” are working overtime.
In the vanguard, Jake Wallis Simons — the former Telegraph and Daily Mail hack forced to resign his Jewish Chronicle editorship earlier this year over Netanyahu-inspired fake stories about Gaza.
Wallis Simons has just published another tract — Never Again: How The West Betrayed The Jews And Itself — which advances the novel theory that the West is in decline and one of the reasons is its hatred of the Jews.
Most sane observers believe the opposite is true.
The West’s support for Netanyahu’s genocide is a boost to the far right and a threat to democracy.
