I would suggest the Russians investigate the actions of Grant Shapps, who says his family fled anti-Jewish “persecution and pogroms in Eastern Europe” at the end of the 19th century.
Less than twenty years ago, the now UK Defence Minister Grant Shapps was an internet conman running a Ponzi scam in which buyers were told they could turn $200 into $20,000 in 20 days, or their money back. Shapps’ etoolkit was merely an ebook that instructed the purchaser to sell it on to their friends, copying Shapps’ pyramid marketing scheme.
Given that Shapps and his wife Belinda Goldstone were involved in this scam, and Shapps is providing UK funds and arms to Ukraine that is being used to kill Russians, doesn’t this make the pair suspects for the “preacher” and his “assistant” who were recruiting prospects on Telegram interested in making a quick half a million roubles (a little over $5,000) in return for being provided with guns to shoot unarmed Russians in a concert hall?
Why would a “preacher”, organising one of the greatest terror attacks of the century, need to delegate recruitment of the gunmen to his assistant? However, a UK Defence Minister playing the “preacher” role might have been busy dealing with Zelensky, other chicanery abroad, or even UK government business, and would have his co-conspirator wife as his “assistant”.
Here’s the Grant Shapps timeline.
1989: Grant Shapps is involved in a car crash in the US, left in a coma for a week.
1999: Shapps allegedly diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at the age of 31, claims to have successfully beaten the disease.
2004: Shapps is running an internet scam, in which he falsely claims his online business has made him so rich that he owns a private plane, a six-bed mansion worth $2m and three high-end luxury cars, including one with a fridge. For $197, he would tell the buyer how to become “stinking rich” like him. In fact, even as of 2022, his net worth was estimated at $1.5m, which meant that his sales letter was a pack of lies. His ‘secret’ was merely a pyramid selling or Ponzi type scam.
2006: Now officially working as a Member of Parliament, Grant Shapps is still running his secret second career as an internet conman. Operating under the pseudonym Michael Green, Shapps established a web sales business, HowToCorp, which claimed that clients who spent around $200 (or $500 in some accounts) on its software, an etoolkit, could “make $20,000 in 20 days guaranteed or your money back.” The buyer would merely receive an ebook containing instructions on how to sell it on to their friends. At least three people of dubious existence, including “Sebastian Fox”, “Corinne Stockheath” of Surrey, England, and “Dr JLM Richards” of Texas, allegedly provided testimonials for Shapps’ company.
2013: The Metropolitan (London) Police write a letter to another MP, Steve McCabe, who was questioning Shapps’ / “Green’s” Ponzi scam. It says that although they had received legal advice that Shapps’ software sales might constitute an offence of fraud, they decided not to instigate a criminal investigation and had closed the matter.
2015: Shapps finally admits to having had a second job and running a business under a pseudonym, while being an MP, after previous denials and threats to sue when the news broke in 2012. His wife Belinda Goldstone was also involved. And still, no one had ever been able to find the people such as “Corinne Stockheath” who were supposedly successful clients of Shapps / “Green”. Channel Four’s investigator said the only “Stockheath” they’d been able to find was a fictional P.G. Wodehouse character.
February 2021: Shapps is allegedly the first UK Cabinet minister to receive the Covid shot; supposedly will go on to contract Covid a year later but make a full recovery.
March 7: Grant Shapps meets Zelensky in Kiev, having arrived on an overnight train from Poland. Is travelling with British armed forces head Admiral Sir Tony Radakin. Was planning a trip from Kiev to Odesa; decides to abandon it after Moscow becomes aware of his movements. The US Embassy in Russia urges all Americans to leave Russia, and to avoid concerts and large gatherings.
March 13: Grant Shapps meets Polish Defence Minister near Orzysk, north-eastern Poland.
