Longford Lecture - Church Hall - Will Self 12 Years, 7 Months ago
As usual I attended the annual Longford Lecture (I'm a huge Lord Longford fan).
Will Self started great; fell in love (as usual) with his own words; crashed and burnt - bored us all to tears with too many adjectives delivered in typical lugubrious style.
Church Hall - the venue - yesterday held anti-female bishop voters.

JK, among Britain's too few braves.
Could easily have retired to the sun and relative anonymity (but for inevitable bent-Brit media constant persecution.)
But instead staying on to fight the good fight.
Inescapeably tall and unmissable in public, while for 12-years ongoing unchecked high-profile bent-media demonised after wrongful conviction and false imprisonment. Among thousands more similar victims of modern U.K. mass injustices ongoing, unchecked.
Yet still standing up and talking back, while mixing it among some of the very same bent-media misrepresenters, persecuting him and thousands more victims of U.K. mass injustices.
For the many millions always outsiders, tell us JK.
What is it like to be inside the-bent-lion's den among those very distorters and false-accusers in such public places ?

Funnily enough I had a conversation with a dear friend who was asking me "JK why do you bother with all this? Nobody cares about the Savile thing anymore. Ditto Bryn Estyn and McAlpine. Let it go. There are more important things".
And it certainly won't make any difference to me. Even if my Appeal were to be granted (some hope), I'll still be remembered as a Vile Pervert. Which is fine by me.
But I met so many broken, ruined, decent men in prison: I'd like to stop future innocent victims losing their freedom due to false accusers and those who encourage them for various reasons.
People with no voices who deserve to be heard (as opposed to most of those on Twitter who don't deserve a voice).
The Longford Lecture, however, is mainly attended by like minds - others who want similar attention paid to the unjustly convicted or accused. In the main, very good people (even if they... we... tend to achieve very little).
