Craig Murray’s jailing is the latest move in a battle to snuff out independent journalism
Craig Murray, a former ambassador to Uzbekistan, the father of a newborn child, a man in very poor health and one who has no prior convictions, will have to hand himself over to the Scottish police on Sunday morning. He becomes the first person ever to be imprisoned on the obscure and vaguely defined charge… Continue reading

Watch: The Making of Two Political Prisoners: Daniel Hale and Craig Murray
“U.S. prosecutors didn’t get what they wanted in their vindictive Espionage Act prosecution against Daniel Hale. They wanted 9 years in prison, especially since he succeeded in convincing many he is a conscientious soul. But 45 months is still 45 months too many.” — Kevin Gosztola, “Shadowproof” Continue reading

Craig Murray: Appeal For Defence Funds
On Friday I shall be sentenced, very possibly to prison, for contempt of court by “jigsaw identification”. While I do not believe anybody has ever been imprisoned for “jigsaw identification” before, my entire prosecution has been so perverse that I cannot imagine why they have done it unless that is the intention.] Continue reading

Letter from London: A Troubling Decision
In the last Letter from London, I discussed the background to the contempt of court case against the historian, journalist and former diplomat Craig Murray for his reporting of the criminal and civil proceedings against Scotland’s former first minister, Alex Salmond, on allegations of sexual assault, for which he was acquitted on all charges at… Continue reading

The Guardian’s deceit-riddled new statement betrays both Julian Assange and journalism
In my recent post on the current hearings at the Old Bailey over Julian Assange’s extradition to the United States, where he would almost certainly be locked away for the rest of his life for the crime of doing journalism, I made two main criticisms of the Guardian. Continue reading

Doctors of Assange Reveals Reports on Mistreatment Have Intensified The Abuse
Doctors 4 Assange, who are the many doctors who sent a letter to the Home Secretary in Great Britain, tweeted a concerning statement today. According to them, Craig Murray’s reporting on the trial of Assange only escalated his mistreatment rather than helping to aid Assange. Continue reading

‘Plan to make me look foolish failed’ – Craig Murray to RT on Skripal interview for Sky News

Troodos: UK’s Spy Centre in the Middle East By Craig Murray
Troodos is highly effective – the jewel in the crown of British intelligence. Its capacity and efficiency, as well as its reach, is staggering. It is therefore very strange, to say the least, that John Kerry claims to have access to communications intercepts of Syrian military and officials organising chemical weapons attacks, which intercepts were… Continue reading

Pre-emptive Policing By Craig Murray
I am deeply concerned about pre-emptive policing, or arresting people who might be going to do something wrong. I frankly don’t believe the BBC’s claim that intelligence indicated that anti-G8 protestors in Soho had weapons, or at any rate I do not believe it was honest intelligence. Continue reading

Suppressed By The BBC By Craig Murray
I was invited then disinvited to discuss Bradley Manning on BBC Breakfast TV this morning. I was delighted and really surprised that the BBC were prepared to give such prime media exposure to the case against the persecution of Manning. I should have realised it would not be allowed to happen. Continue reading

Market Madness By Craig Murray
Three days ago I collapsed for the second time in two days; an ambulance was called and a paramedic arrived within 5 minutes, with a full ambulance arriving inside a further five minutes. The NHS at its amazing best. I am well looked after. Yet a couple of weeks previously I had an example of… Continue reading

A first class documentary from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation which exposes the risibility of the sexual allegations about Assange. The truth the UK media will not tell. Continue reading

Werritty/Miliband: They Were All In It By Craig Murray
David Miliband and William Hague are implicated in three entirely new Adam Werritty/Matthew Gould meetings admitted by the FCO in response to one of my FOI requests. Gould’s meetings with Werritty, in his capacity as Prinical Private Secretary to first Miliband and then Hague, were entirely left out of Gus O’Donnell’s ‘investigation’ into Werritty’s activities. Continue reading

Gould-Werritty: A Real Conspiracy, Not a Theory By Craig Murray
There is a huge government cover-up in progress over the Werritty connection to Mossad and the role of British Ambassador to Israel Matthew Gould, and their neo-con plan to start a war with Iran. Continue reading
