I have just forwarded the following to Alexis Boon, Chief Constable, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary Via Tanya Smith, Office Manager, Chief Officer Group 'Dear Tanya, Please forward the attached email to Alexis Boon. Please also confirm that ALL of my previous emails to Alexis Boon have been passed onto Alexis Boon and not simply relegated to a 'complaints' bureau or bureaucrat.

I received the following document by email last Thursday. I have yet to decide how I respond to the apology from PHSO Operations Manager, Ian Higgins. '26 March 2026 Dear Mr Stock Your complaint about our service Thank you for raising your concerns about the service we have provided. I am sincerely sorry to read of the impact this has had on you.

I have just sent the following email to Paula Flanagan, Lead Case Officer at the Information Commissioners Office 'Dear Paula, I hope you are well.

My New Campaign begins today. It will become visible, slowly, over the course of the coming weeks and months across multiple platforms supported by popular social media sites, content hosts and other designated mainstream and alternative news media . Eventually, when it has gained momentum and attracted the attention of a public audience of sufficient size, it will appear here, on my blog page. The ‘Open Letter’ I distributed on the 17th of March has, so far, provoked a minim

CONTENT WARNING Suicidal ideation It has been a week since I last posted to this blog. The last several days have been a huge challenge for me as I wrestle with my demons and overwhelming suicidal ideation. I had been considering making this blog entry a suicide note but held off until the death compulsion eased, if only a little. It is a recurring issue for me as I wade through the accumulation of literal years of struggle with mental health services. I have a fascination

THE PREVENT FILES # 7 “We remain committed to holding organisations publicly accountable when it comes to FOI compliance. If public authorities fail to deliver a transparent service, it questions their integrity and their ability to meet their legal obligations. Those making FOI requests should do so, knowing that they will receive a response in a timely manner with adequate advice on any next steps that can be taken. And those failing to meet their basic duties, should and

Today is a notable anniversary. It has been exactly one year to the day since my daughter Meg first engaged in therapy with Dr Matt Sopp, addressing the most serious and debilitating aspect of her mental health issues, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. Meg’s appointment with Matt yesterday was her THIRTY-NINTH psychotherapy session! Most people believe that Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is just a collection of odd habits like excessive handwashing, turning light switches o

THE PREVENT FILES # 6 It has been almost EIGHT MONTHS to the day since Gemma Stubbington referred me to counter-terrorism following my written statement to PEACEFULLY PROTEST outside the Houses of Parliament on the 24th June last year. My records confirm that it took Gemma Stubbington just THREE DAYS between raising concerns with the Safeguarding Board of the Trust and actually filing the PREVENT referral with Emily Taylor at Counter Terrorism Policing South East. I have been

I am publishing today’s email correspondence between Sadie Bell, me and the ICO. The account of the injustices relating the referral of me to PREVENT and the troubling issues surrounding the obstruction of my access to my personal data being held by Sadie Bell is embedded in a much wider story that spans more than SEVEN YEARS and TWO NHS Trusts. It had been my intention to update the national press on the more recent chapters of my harrowing experiences of mental health servi

THE PREVENT FILES # 4 ‘Unaccountability’ is the quality or state of being unaccountable, meaning not responsible or answerable for one's actions. Sadie Bell’s email that arrived through my inbox on Friday, February 6, 2026 and published in Latest Issues 7th February, 2026 is, unequivocally, a collection of statements defending the ‘Unaccountability’ of Gemma Stubbington, Susan Corley, the Safeguarding Board and, by association, the entirety of the Hampshire and IOW Healt

THE PREVENT FILES # 3 Before I go further and publish the email thread between the Director of Information Governance at HIOWH Trust, Sadie Bell and me from last Friday, 6th February, 2026 I will explain the following. I had received my most recent medical records from Larissa Cleverely, Admin/secretary ACP at HIOWH Trust on the 9th September, 2025. I replied with a new request on the same day… ‘Hi Lara, I wrote to you on the 9th September, 2025 requesting 'Please forward

THE PREVENT FILES # 2 Holding healthcare professionals to account for their decisions is akin to playing a tortuous game of snakes and ladders, more precisely the Indian version where snakes outnumber ladders. Formal complaints processes are plagued by veritable cobras, kraits and vipers while the ladders are rickety, rotten and rare. I am still waiting for the Health and Care Professions Council to agree to the full ‘scope’ of my fitness to practice complaint against their r

THE PREVENT FILES # 1 Regular readers to my blog will be aware that I was referred to the government’s counter-terrorism initiative, PREVENT on the 18th of June, 2025 by Gemma Stubbington, former Head of Nursing at CMHT, The Bridge Centre, Basingstoke. I remain adamant in protesting Gemma Stubbington’s referral and maintain that she did so recklessly and without due care and attention to me or to the National Prevent Guidelines. Almost immediately after becoming aware of thi

I have been busy, this week, compiling documents relating to the appalling referral of me to the counter-terrorism initiative, PREVENT. These documents form part of a legal brief for the attention of lawyers affiliated with the rights group, PreventWatch. I have been asked to provide as much information to PreventWatch by the end of this month. Unfortunately, recent Subject Access Requests for my personal data held by Hampshire and IOW Healthcare Trust and, separately by Hamp
