George Foulkes MP raised questions in the House of Commons in November1984 concerning my complaints supported by his letter as follows:

HOUSE of COMMONS
LONDON SW1A 0AA

9th November 1984

Rt Hon Leon Brittan QC MP
Home Secretary
50 Queen Anne's Gate
London
SW1H 9AT.

Dear Leon,

I am writing to you in connection with Mr Maurice Kirk, currently serving a prison sentence at the States prison, Guernsey.  I appeal to you on humanitarian grounds and in the interests of justice to use your powers under section 26 (2) of the Criminal Justice Act 1961, to transfer Mr Kirk to a mainland prison for the remainder of his sentence.

The prison governor has freely admitted that the building and staff are incapable of providing Mr Kirk with minimum standards expected by a court.  Mr Kirk is kept in solitary confinement.  All his mail is censored, thus denying him confidential communication with his solicitors in England.  In addition numerous letters to his solicitors and MP's have been confiscated due to what the prison has described as "of indeterminate length".

As a result of what Mr Kirk sees as prejudice, his health is deteriorating and you will know that he has spent much of the past few months on hunger strike.  In addition he claims that medical attention has been refused him from 3 separate practices on the island.  These factors have contributed to a great strain on Mr Kirk's wife.

According to people who have met the Kirks, both are close to breakdown and see transfer to a mainland jail as the only hope.

You are aware of my criticisms of the islands and of their constitutional relationship with the U.K.  Please appreciate that my appeal to you for an urgent transfer for Mr Kirk has no direct link with these criticisms.  It is on humanitarian grounds and in order to ensure Mr Kirk a fair hearing.

Yours sincerely 

George Foulkes Esq.MP

On 8 November 1984 the Governor of the Prison supplied me with details of 35 letters they were prepared to admit had been stopped.  By this time I realised in the region of 60 letters had been stopped going out.

PARLIAMENTARY UNDERSECRETARY OF STATE

Dear Janet   [Fookes MP]

I am now able to reply to your letter of 11th July to David Waddington with which you enclosed this one from Mr Maurice J Kirk in connection with his recent legal proceedings in Guernsey. I should say at the outset that since you wrote, Mr Kirk has been convicted on a charge of contempt and sentenced to a term of eight months imprisonment. I understand that he has lodged an appeal against conviction and sentence.

As you are aware, Guernsey is not part of the United Kingdom but a dependent territory of the British Crown, which, in general, is responsible for its own domestic affairs. The administration of justice in Guernsey is, by constitutional convention, wholly within the competence of the Insular authorities and it would therefore be inappropriate for the home secretary to seek to intervene in individual cases.

I am however assured by the Guernsey authorities that in accordance with established procedure in Guernsey, Mr Kirk was given the opportunity to select an advocate for his defence, but I understand that he took the somewhat unusual course of selecting one from the 27 offered by picking a name from a hat.

Mr Kirk subsequently indicated that he did not wish the advocate to represent him and made no attempt to engage the services of another.

With regard to Mr Kirk's claims that he was denied access to law books and facilities for the preparation of his defence, I understand that the Guernsey prison authorities responded to all his requests for books, but that not all of these requests were available. They do not accept that he was denied any reasonable facilities for which provision is made in the prison (Administration) Ordinance 1959.

(THE LORD ELTON)

In October,1984 having apparently exhausted all local remedies I went on hunger strike for the second time for reasons outlined in the following letters:

Copy of letter from Maurice J Kirk from Ozanne Ward, Princess Elizabeth Hospital, Guernsey

                                                                          dated 15th Nov.84

To the President
Prison Board
States of Guernsey

Dear Madam,

I am on hunger strike because

1)  I have applied to a higher court in the U.K. concerning my conviction and vindictive sentence and your insular authority REFUSE to send me to appear in person because you say it is TOO EXPENSIVE to travel there.  (See newspaper report)

2)  False information was given to the jurats before sentencing by Day, the solicitor-general, concerning time on remand thereby affecting my release date.  This could be notified without further delay.

3)  A charge of OVER 17 MONTHS AGO against me will not be brought to court because the evidence will expose the conspiracy of the authorities and others to sell my building and contents in 1983.

4)  The various authorities will not answer letters and supply transcripts and tapes of hearings - ALL PUBLIC DOCUMENTS.

ANY OTHER PRISONER WOULD BE ON PAROLE AFTER SUCH AN INJURY CAUSING HOSPITALISATION.

Yours faithfully

Guernsey guards its secrets of year under Nazi rule

Attempts to show the people of Guernsey how islanders collaborated with the *** have been thwarted.

Nick Cohen reports

Fifty years after the German invasion of the Channel Islands, Guernsey's main public hall has refused to stage an account of how the island's wartime leaders helped send three Jewish women to their deaths.

The decisions to deny a venue to Theresa, by Julia Pascal, has led to accusations that the island wants to hide from its history.

For the play is not only a critically acclaimed piece of theatre, but a chronicle based on documents from the occupation, which Ms Pascal was shown by ‘islanders with a conscience'.

Included in the archives which are closed to the public, were letters to the German Feldkommandantur from Victor Carey, Guernsey's senior wartime administrator. They detail how local officials gave the Germans information on Jewish refugees, cross examined others who were suspected of not being from ‘pure Aryan Stock' and seized the property of those who fled when the Germans came.

Last week the association controlling the St James concert hall in St Peter Port rejected an attempt by Maurice Kirk, a local vet, to book the theatre for two nights. Kirstin Simon, the association's director, said ‘All I can say is that the committee did not think it was appropriate to accept the booking. People from the mainland don't understand.  It's a very, very, delicate subject.'

Ms Pascal said yesterday that she was angered by the decision but not surprised. ‘I was met by a wall of silence when I went to Guernsey. The archives were closed and people didn't want to talk about what had happened'.

She believes that one reason for the refusal is that emphasis she places on Carey's role.

When collaboration on Guernsey has been discussed, attention has concentrated on Chief Inspector William Sculpher, head of the island's police force during the war. He was a London policeman nicknamed ‘Parson Joe' who ponderously obeyed the orders of his superiors, until he was sent to an internment camp by the Germans, possibly for stealing rations.

Carey, by contrast, was an islander and member of what is still, a leading political family on Guernsey. The son of a major general, he was a barrister and member of the Channel Islands Yacht Club, who rose to become Bailiff - president of the Guernsey legislature, the States - from 1935 to 1946.

After the fall of France in June 1940, the Channel Islands were indefensible. Officials left to contend with the German occupation had the choice of resigning and facing possible punishment of serving their new masters.

Carey stayed in his post and, as the documents show, helped implement one of the Nazi's first demands that the Island's parliament accept German anti-semitic legislation and identify all Jews. 

On 29 October 1940, Carey told the Feldkommandantur

‘Regarding the registration of Jews, I have the honour to report that the Order which accompanied your letter was communicated to the Royal Court, .. (where it) was registered and published.  I can assure you there will be no delay, in so far as I am concerned, in furnishing you with the information you require.  I have the honour, Sir, to be your obedient servant, Victor Carey.'

There were only a few people on Guernsey to furnish information on.  Theresa Steiner was one.

She fled from Vienna when she was 22 after the Nazi take-over of Austria in 1938 and became a nanny with a Kent family. When war broke out, Miss Steiner and the children were sent to the Channel Islands.

As an Austrian, Miss Steiner was technically an enemy alien and she was obliged to hand her passport to Sculpher.   8  weeks before the invasion, islanders who knew her, have alleged she begged the policeman to allow her to leave for England.  He refused and she was sent to work as a nurse.  By 25 November, Sculpher had given Carey the names and addresses of five Jewish women on Guernsey and investigated many others.

Meanwhile other sections of the island's bureaucracy were enforcing fresh legislation. Carey was able to tell the Feldkommandantur Boosch on 4 December that Guernsey's Custodian of Business and Industry had seized an underclothing business abandoned by a woman.

On 17 June 1941 Carey told the Feldkommandantur that he ‘had the honour' of ensuring that a third measure against the Jews, the severest yet, had been registered and published in the local newspaper. It described those whom the Germans deemed Jewish and said they should be sacked by their employers.

A year later the Germans sent Theresa Steiner and two other refugees - Auguste Spitz and Marianne Grunfeld - from Guernsey to the Auschwitz concentration camp.  She was 26 when she was gassed.

Carey was knighted in 1945 for his services during the occupation .   He died in 1957 aged 86.

Dear Sir

The Channel Islands' prosperity was founded on piracy and in particular against English merchantmen.  After the war, Sir Winston Churchill swore never to set foot on this island, because of the collaboration of the island administration with the enemy.  The UK tax-payers subsidise the Channel Islands for millions of pounds every year unbeknown to either. The indigenous section of the Guernsey community has suffered appalling injustices under an oligarchy driven by avarice, the control of which is held by just a few interbred families who will stop at nothing to retain the local people as serfs and exploit other British subjects who choose to come and live on this British Island.

HM Government, ultimately responsible for the administration of the Channel Islands, allows the banks of multinational companies to use the islands for tax avoidance if not evasion, in return for their support, with no benefit, to either the UK taxpayer or Guernsey resident not with the ‘chosen few'.  The judicial system in Guernsey and possibly Jersey, is incestuously inter-twined with the executive in both the UK and Channel Islands to maintain the status quo.

As an Englishman perusing my right through the court for what is lawfully mine, I specifically asked that my partnership swindle, instigated by corrupt local lawyers, who ran a cartel, go before an impartial tribunal (as per Article 6 of the European Charter for Human Rights) but what have you done?

You tell me today you have handed my applications to the Court of Appeal concerning my partnership swindle to the only Court of Appeal judge residing this week who has strong Channel Island ‘connections'.

My letter to you of 1 March 1990 stated that even though visiting Court of Appeal judges are subjected to the disgusting track record this island has of corruption and that they have to keep their mouths shut because that are on some form of penance with the promises of promotion later in the real world, I ask that you remove the papers immediately from Sir Godfrey Le Quesne and place them before an apparent independent visiting QC (QC meaning Queens Council not Quaintly Corrupt) as is the meaning of the letters of the reject attorneys De Vic Carey and Day, the prosecution of Guernsey who help vote on the permanent jury.

Yours faithfully

Play 'distorts' collaboration allegations

1.12.90 by Shaun Green

Blatant censorship by the island's authorities preventing islanders from learning the truth about collaboration in the Second World War, according to vet Maurice Kirk and the director of a London play which the Friends of St James Association have refused to sanction.

Association President Conseillor Bob Chilcott says that the play, Theresa, which is about the treatment of Jews in occupied Guernsey is ‘disgusting and inappropriate for production at St James'.

Mr Kirk applied to hire the St James hall for a production of Theresa on 15 and 16 February next year and was asked to submit a copy of the script for examination by the director of St James and the association council.

Mr Chilcott says that the play, which is based on the true story of Theresa Steiner, a Jewish music professor from Vienna living in Guernsey during the Occupation was judged to be ‘disgusting and not the sort of production which St James would wish to put on in its concert hall'.

‘It was so distasteful that the council were not prepared to put any pressure on the director - it was quite clearly not our sort of production'.

The council wrote to Mr Kirk stating that the play was inappropriate and that St James was not technically well enough equipped to stage such a theatrical event.  Mr Chilcott suggested that Mr Kirk apply to Beau Sejour, which would be a more suitable venue.

Mr Kirk says that this is nonsense.  He alleged that the true issue behind the refusal is that the play touches ‘the tip of the iceberg of collaboration'.

Mr Kirk says that while he does not think the play wholly historically accurate, he had met the writer and producer, Julia Pascal, and booked the theatrical company to come to Guernsey in February 1991 before setting off on a European tour.

He agrees that Beau Sejour would be ideal but is fully booked on the dates in question and he has written to parish halls in the hope of finding a venue.

Mr Kirk says that if necessary, he will knock through two partition walls in his surgery to make a room large enough to seat 60 people for the play.

He disputes that the concert hall is not equipped to stage the play.  Having seen the play he believes that, although St James is not ideal, the play could easily be produced there.

Theresa is running at The Garage Theatre in London and has been described by Time Out as a ‘stunning' performance with enough freshness and intelligence to put it in a class of its own.

Director and writer Julia Pascal, the first female direction of the National Theatre, says the decision by St James is ‘horrendous' and an act of direct censorship by Guernsey's authorities.

She is keen and willing to stage the production ‘As it is about Guernsey it seems wholly appropriate to stage it in Guernsey'.

She says that a whole generation of Guernsey people born after the war are  unaware of the true extent of collaboration which, in this case, led to the deportation of at least three Jewish women.

A local military historian who has seen the play in London says ‘while I applaud the efforts of Mr Kirk and Miss Pascal to bring the issue to public notice there are some historical inaccuracies which disturb me.

She says that the play has an ‘awkward balance' of historical fact and writer's licence.

For example, in the play Theresa has a grown-up son who commits suicide yet, in reality, Theresa was only in her twenties during the Occupation.

She says the play addresses a sensitive subject in a distorted fashion which might mislead the non historian.  She would not like to see the play shown in its present form, but welcomes broaching the subject.

About Maurice Kirk

Maurice was born 12th March1945, a war baby, in Taunton, Somerset, West of England, within a final family of four brothers and one sister while mother and father were working 24/7 to run a country veterinary practice. Country pursuits very much dominated his spare time from most sports with his passion still for hunting , shooting and fishing! Maurice is currently trying to fly to South Africa in his WW2 Piper Cub,registration G-KURK. His other D-Day Cub, G-KERK, is destined, on skis, for a rather taller mountain after his promise to Sir Edmond, six years ago. Meanwhile, the task of obtaining justice in the UK courts, in order to practice veterinary surgery, is proving to be somewhat elusive. Authority has quite another agenda.

HM 'buck' stops where?

Whilst on a lengthy hunger strike in 'solitary', in the 1811 built freezing prison of Guernsey way back in '84, dear George Foulkes MP and Alf Dubs MP, vilified on the islands, asked questions in the House of Commons as to just how the Guernsey Authorities could be allowed to get away with stopping my letters getting out, some sixty-three of them to lawyers, family and friends and diverting incoming mail via their quaint but nefarious style HM Crown Prosecution Service? Why, twenty-one times, was I gaoled with the majority of charges being then dropped just a  few days later or for nineteen, many months later, if it was not to destroy my ability to run my single handed veterinary practice? Try and guess what the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons did about it? 

Why was I repeatedly refused independent legal representation with definitely no lawyer allowed from England and having to face their permanent jury, time and time again, partly voted on by the same HM prosecution conducting the incestuous world of Noddy Land?  Twenty-five years later, and now I am in the Principality of Wales. Has anything really changed?  Is it Deja vu? 

I have now, in 2009, dug out a series of HM letters caused by my pleas for help from my prison bed. HM dominates the replies from both the UK executive and Guernsey Insular Authority. Out of prison in 1984, I am backwards and forwards to Downing Street court cases, eligible as resident of a dependant territory, like the proverbial yo-yo!

After leaving Guernsey in 1992, by rubber boat, I was again before the HM Privy Council, but with the RCVS joining in using the same HM immunity to prosecution as the games currently played from Whitehall RIGHT NOW. 

A RAY OF HOPE

The new President of America, Barack Obama, has already expressed views, similar to mine, about wiping out the deceitful tax haven industry around the world. But will he go further and introduce democracy to our islands?

A series of letters and newspaper cuttings hurriedly put on this blog, as an indication of the deceit riddled environment I am leaving, shortly, (for another?)
