In our article of 16 March we summarised the current state of the judiciary under leadership of Lady Chief Justice Carr and Sir Geoffrey Vos, Master of the Rolls; ‘Judges of their own cause‘ and ‘puppets to the puppet masters‘. The analogy translates to the common problem, unregulated, unaccountable judicial tyranny, with liar law breakers leading and giving orders to judges in the cases they are deployed to. What are the ones they lead doing?
It is our view that the current judiciary of England & Wales comprises of quite a number of “Judges” who present ‘a danger to the public‘, defeaters of the rule of law, and enemies of the people. They say, ‘no one is above the law‘, but it’s not true though is it?

ToggleOverwhelming evidence of flagrant law breaking, affronts to justice and dishonest acts by Sir Geoffrey Vos and senior judges he leads
Persistent lies and cover ups are systemically covered up. Turkeys don’t vote for Christmas, the ones at the top cheating people of justice assert their weight to ensure they protect themselves and their associates from the law and scrutiny.
In this case, it was about the contractual fact no money was owed to Middlesbrough FC (owned by the unscrupulous Tory politician, Steve Gibson OBE), and that consequentially, a multi-million pound claim in set off arises in consequence of the Club making an UNWARRANTED DEMAND for £181,269.89 ENERGY SUPPLY & £75,000 RENT (£256,269.89).
The blatantly corrupt “Judges” involved, led by and installed by then Chancellor of the High Court, Sir Geoffrey Vos, bypassed the contractual terms and the mandatory law of due process at the same time.
Sir Geoffrey Vos and his judicial team “FRAUDULENTLY FAILED TO ADMINISTER THE LAW AND JUSTICE“. We expose their corruption…
Sir Geoffrey Vos and his sect of “Judges” defeated the rule of law – ‘Justice subject to status‘
The judiciary of England & Wales led by Sir Geoffrey Vos defrauded Paul Millinder and his companies by concealing the crucial contractual facts in his favour, whilst dishonestly depriving him of the mandatory engaged insolvency set off rights conferred in Rule 14.25 Insolvency Rules 2016.
The Club’s fictitious claims that were to be set off, were purportedly based on the same contractual terms that Millinder was prevented from relying on, the terms of his own contracts.
The judiciary of England and Wales, acting under orders of now Master of the Rolls, Sir Geoffrey Vos (JUDGE OF HIS OWN CAUSE) were each and all instructed (obviously) to conceal their fraud by evading judging on the crucial evidence and the public interest point of legal principle at the heart of it.

Like Hunt and Gather TV, we received ‘no comment‘ from either the Lady Chief Justice, Sir Geoffrey Vos, Master of the Rolls, or any of them responsible for ‘judicial conduct’ after we delivered our 31 November 205 report proving 3 significant acts of dishonesty in material particulars by senior judges of the High Court and Court of Appeal.
We detail our report on the right;
Judicial corruption and the 3 lies by 3 stooges

On 31 November 2025 we served Sir Geoffrey Vos, Lady Justice Carr and the Lord Chancellor, David Lammy MP, our ‘3 stooges report’ exposing outright cheating by Sir Geoffrey Vos whilst he was Chancellor of the High Court. Our earlier reports exposed how ICC Judge Jones and ICC Judge Barber were sent into the case by Vos, then Chancellor of the High Court
We exposed:
(1) Sir Richard Arnold (now Lord Justice Arnold) lying in material particulars, making knowingly false writen representations on the official court record in his own ex-parte judgment of 9 January 2017.
(2) In his judgment of 5 February 2018, same case, we exposed Sir Christopher Nugee (now Lord Justice Nugee), lying to conceal fraudulent non-disclosure, failing to judge on the Defendant’s ‘continuing legal duty of disclosure‘ and then effectively forging the terms of the Complainant’s absolute assignment on which its statutory demand for over £500,000 was based, falsely representing the terms in 3 places, only where doing so made his corrupted version, not absolute, so it did not comply with the law.
(3) Sir Geoffrey Vos (now Master of the Rolls, head of civil justice for England & Wales, lying and cheating to conceal material particulars, whilst evading administering the mandatory law of due process to sustain knowingly false claims to prevent justice being served on Middlesbrough Football Club, owned by the Torty politician, Steve Gibson OBE, who used his government connected lawyers and officials to evade justice by cheating the system.
The cruciality of the rule of English law and judicial independence
Our witness, Mr Millinder, summarises the current state of the UK’s justice system perfectly, and the importance of the case taken on by this Firm:
“If I cannot rely on the terms of a completed deed or contract to gain restitution for wrongdoing / tortious breach of contract…
THEN NEITHER CAN ANYONE ELSE”
“If I cannot rely on the mandatory engaged rule, insolvency set off because this sect of “Judges” decide the law does not apply to my companies and I…
THEN NEITHER CAN ANYONE ELSE”
“If I cannot rely on the privilege of absolute immunity from suit in respect of the crucial evidence and facts I had first given in a police investigation, and then used in Court…
THEN NEITHER CAN ANYONE ELSE,
“If I cannot rely on the judges of England & Wales to act impartially…
THEN NEITHER CAN ANYONE ELSE”
Paul Millinder, was to have been developer of ‘Europe’s first wind powered football stadium’ at Middlesbrough Football Club’s Riverside Stadium. That was, until the Club demanded money was was not contractually owed under the terms of the deeds.
What happened was that when Mr Millinder and his companies did not immediately pay the Club’s ransom demand, because no money was owed, the Club then defeated the contractual purpose, by refusing the connection.
Months afterwards, on 19 August 2015 the Club terminated the deeds, alleging non payment of rent and energy supply they prevented from being supplied.
When Millinder took the case to court, Sir Geoffrey Vos and Robert James Buckland KC MP , the alleged ringleaders of the conspiracy ensured justice was not served.
The corrupt judiciary of England & Wales led by Sir Geoffrey Vos defrauded Millinder and his companies by dishonestly depriving him of the mandatory insolvency set off rights conferred in Rule 14.25 Insolvency Rules 2016.

It’s not about the individual case, its about lies, cheating and making cronies ‘above the law’ , defeating the rule of English law so that the few are always above it.
Throughout the course of public justice, now spanning over 7-years, Sir Geoffrey Vos and his underlings continue to fraudulently abuse their judicial duties by concealing, and sending ‘layers’ of ‘Judges’ to do the same.
From the very first purported determination by ICC Judge Jones on 26 March 2018, through to the most recent by ‘Mr Justice’ Adam Johnson on 11 February 2026, the ‘Judges’ fraudulently concealed and negated to judge on anything to do with ‘set off’ / ‘14.25 Insolvency Rules 2016.
Outright lies by Sir Geoffrey Vos – Master of the Rolls when he was Chancellor of the High Court
At paragraph 103 of his 8 February 2019 judgment, Sir Geoffrey Vos said this:
“103. I can say at once that I have been through all the papers in this case in meticulous detail, and I have seen no evidence of any kind for any of the allegations of fraud, conspiracy or misdealing that Mr Millinder has made. He has made these allegations when he became frustrated by his seeming inability to find a forum in which he would vindicate what he saw as his companies’ irrebuttable claims.”
Sir Geoffrey, then Chancellor of the High Court said he went through ‘all the papers in meticulous detail’, so he knew therefore no money was owed to Middlesbrough FC, prior to them making an unwarranted demand for payment in the sum of £256,269.89 on 25 June 2015 of which £181,269.89 was an invoiced for energy supply they were contractually prohibited from invoicing for (THERE WAS NO CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT TO SUPPLY POWER) along with 5 invoices for rent in the sum totaling £75,000 (5 x £15,000 (each including £2,500 V.A.T).
At paragraph 105 of his purported judgment, Sir Geoffrey went on with more lies to conceal the contractual facts:
“105. On 25th June 2015, Middlesbrough invoiced Empowering Wind MFC for a quantified claim for rent in the sum of £256,269.89 and threatened forfeiture of the Lease and termination of the ESA. Mr Millinder could at that stage, on behalf of Empowering Wind MFC, if he had grounds to do so, immediately have challenged those claims. He could have sought an injunction to restrain the presentation of a winding up petition, or initiated a civil claim to determine whether or not the monies claimed were due on the basis of the force majeure clauses or otherwise. At the same time, Mr Millinder could have advanced Empowering Wind MFC’s alleged cross claims for misrepresentation and breaches of the Lease and the ESA. He did not, however, do so.”
It was not however, Mr Millinder’s duty to set off the fictitious claims by the Club against the EW claim exceeding £10 million against them, it was the Judge’s, and the Liquidator’s, both of whom, fraudulently failed to do so, then they concealed their fraud.
Here’s the £4,111,874.75 false claim made by the Club and Womble Bond Dickinson (UK) LLP in Newcastle that Sir Geoffrey Vos was asked to adjudicate on. It arises from the fictitious claim for £75,000 in rent and £181,269.89 for energy supply of 25 June 2015:
There was not as much as a whisper, not a single word or reference to the fact that Middlesbrough FC, falsely claimed to be creditors in the sum of over £4.1 million.
This is likely to be, because in Court on 9 January 2017, Mr Staunton, counsel for the Club, had himself admitted on the official court record, that he knew no claim for energy supply could be established, as, in his own words “force majeure had effect”.
Ulick Staunton – counsel for Middlesbrough Football Club – U-turned and retracted the claims in writing on 12 November 2018

Paragraph 37 of Ulick Staunton’s 12 November 2018 skeleton argument prepared for Middlesbrough Football Club
On 12 November 2018, Mr Staunton, counsel for the Club, officially retracted the claims the Club had advanced against Empowering Wind MFC Ltd (‘EW’).
Fundamentally, on 25 June 2015 it was that claim, an unwarranted demand of £256,269.89 they were claiming. That was they claim they said was outstanding, their excuse for forfeiting the lease on 19 August 2015. That was the claim they sought to prove against EW on 15 August 2016 after an insolvency process commenced against EW.
Law required then that the Club’s claim be set off against the EW claim against the Club, and that’s what the ‘Judges’ and the Official Receivers prevented happening. (See: Rule 14.25. Insolvency Rules 2016).
It follows therefore that Sir Geoffrey Vos knew only too well that no money was owed. Consequential of the fraudulent forfeiture of the wind turbine lease, is the obvious claim vested in EW, exceeding £10 million, so, what his cronies, purported “Judges” of the Insolvency & Companies Court, a division of the Chancery High Court in London, did, was they bypassed the mandatory law of due process, to defraud Mr Millinder and EW of the asset knowing that they would go on to deploy civil restraint orders to conceal their fraud after failing to judge on the obvious contractual points at issue.
Sir Geoffrey Vos had listed the case for a hearing on 14 November 2018, but after finding out that Mr Staunton admitted the truth, that no money was owed to the Club, Vos suddenly developed an EYE PROBLEM (we believe it was called WILFUL BLINDNESS) and quickly adjourned the hearing.

It wasn’t until 30 November 2018 that Mr Millinder made his complaint by email to Sir Geoffrey Vos’s office. We exhibit that email below:
Vos_Email_Millinder_30-11-2018
His clerk, Adam Davis received the email from Mr Millinder, he was under official duties to have passed it on to Sir Geoffrey, who likewise was under official duties to have diligently read Mr Staunton’s skeleton argument where he retracted the claims brought against EW.
Sir Geoffrey cannot say he didn’t know that Middlesbrough FC were never owed any money, and that all their claims were false.
On 9 January 2017, in his judgment, Sir Richard Arnold was lying and saying the Club was owed £550,000 in rent, to conceal the fact that £466,308.89 of it was energy supply, but we cannot work out now Sir Geoffrey got to £256,269.89 in rent when he had a claim for over £4 million in energy supply before him!
In response Sir Geoffrey Vos and the High Court Insolvency & Companies Court Public Authority and its “Judges” concealed blatant fraud
It became apparent that Sir Geoffrey Vos was lying about his ‘eye problem’ to put separation distance between him asking Mr Staunton to retract and replace his skeleton, which he did.
With ‘justice delayed, and then deliberately denied’ Vos then went on to purport to hear Mr Millinder’s application (exhibited below) on 22 January 2019:
Pages 3 – 5 of the 5-page application that came before Sir Geoffrey Vos which he said he read with ‘meticulous detail’, establish that on 5 February 2018 Mr Justice Nugee found that no money was owed to the Club before they forfeited the lease based on a demand for money.
Sir Geoffrey Vos evaded his duty to have set off the claim of over £4 million against EW, knowing that Mr Staunton had retracted all of the claims the Club brought against EW, because they cannot bring one!

The “Judges” installed by Sir Geoffrey Vos when he was Chancellor of the High Court, starting with Chief Registrar Baister, then ICC Judge Jones, then ICC Judge Barber each evaded their judicial duty to have administered the mandatory engaged rule of due process, insolvency set off, the conduct was nothing other than of dishonest intent to have made a gain and to have caused loss.
Unsurprisingly, there was not a single mention of “set off” (as in insolvency set off) or “14.25” (as in 14.25 Insolvency Rules 2016) anywhere in the judgment by Sir Geoffrey Vos of 8 February 2019, and none in any thereafter, BECAUSE THAT’S THE FRAUD BY THEM AT THE HEART OF THE CASE!
It is fraud to conceal fraud, and it’s fraud to dishonestly deprive a man of a statutory right of which he is entitled, to make a gain and to cause loss, and they continue to cover up.
“Mr Justice” Adam Johnson finally releases his fraudulent purported determination of 11 February 2026
After acquiring the rights of action from Mr Millinder by way of assignment under Section 136(1) Law of Property Act 1925 on 25 March 2022, every claim and application we made since has been suppressed because they have been acting under orders of Sir Geoffrey Vos who has been concealing his own fraudulent conspiracy and sending other “Judges” in to do the same.

TROUBLE COMES IN 3s: Left: ICC “Judge” Barber Middle: “Mr Justice” Adam Johnson and right: ICC “Judge” Prentis
Unbelievably, after having installed ICC Judge Barber to defraud Mr Millinder of over £530,000 on 28 March 2018, when Barber bypassed the mandatory law of insolvency set off to defraud Mr Millinder of the investment he assigned to Earth Energy Investments LLP, on 2 October 2025 Sir Geoffrey Vos installed ICC Judge Barber to be “judge of her own cause”.
Barber failed to judge on any of the issues set out by this firm in the draft order, and rather, to create separation distance, “Mr Justice” Adam Johnson was put in to conceal their fraud and wrongdoings to prevent justice being served on the Defendants, whilst they tampered with the official court records.
Below, we exhibit this Firm’s skeleton argument for the hearing of 11 February 2026 before Mr Justice Adam Johnson:
C's-SKELETON-HEARING_11_02_2025
Now we exhibit our 3-page investigatory document showing where Adam Johnson and or the Government Legal Department tampered with the official court record to diminish the gravity of the submissions made by Mr Millinder in Court:
Lastly, we exhibit the 5-pages of cheating by Adam Johnson where he dishonestly failed to judge on any of the points at issue in this Firm’s skeleton argument and lied to conceal by certifying the proven case as ‘no more or less than bound to fail’, undoubtedly acting under orders of the Master of the Rolls to do so:
No mention of the fact that no money was ever owed to Middlesbrough FC before or after they demanded money and forfeited the lease deed based on the demand.
No mention of “set off” / “14.25”, “anti-deprivation” or “immunity from suit”, nor that Lady Justice Andrews, on examination of the assignment determined that as this Firm is a “genuine assignee, and the ruling against Mr Millinder DOES NOT prevent it from litigating” anywhere in the “Mr Justice” Adam Johnson judgment either.
Nobody’s getting justice in a system controlled by criminals. We must restore the rule of law and just judicial governance by holding the perpetrators to account.
No one is above the law – and concealment of fraud is obviously a serious perversion of the course of public justice.
