Sonia Poulton: Anti-Semitism and Vile Child Sex Slave Allegations (Redux)

This is a heavily revised version of my article about Sonia Poulton’s vile anti-Semitism. Sonia Poulton has been tweeting recently about the court case we are involved in and me, claiming I have been making up lies, including in particular that she is “anti-Semitic”. I have revised and republished this article because I do not wish to prejudice any proceedings should they occur, unexpectedly, much sooner than initially anticipated.

Sonia Poulton claims the allegations of anti-Semitism are lies.

Sonia Poulton claims the allegations of anti-Semitism are lies.

I stand by my opinion that Sonia is anti-Semitic, which is based on the content she has produced and participated in. To give some (non-exhaustive) examples of the facts my opinion is based on I would like to start with her video aired on 18 July 2020 in which Sonia Poulton and Shaun Attwood interview noted holocaust denier Ryan Dawson, uncritically and sympathetically. The horrifying assertions from this video include (checks notes):

(1) When asked if victims of 9/11 would see justice Dawson responds – “some justice yeah I mean I don’t think it’ll get back to Israel […]” – meaning that Israel is responsible for 9/11 and victims will not see justice against Israel.

(2) The Knesset, Israel’s legislature, only banned people trafficking to avoid Jewish blood being diluted, “what it was that won them over to finally start making rules about the victims of human trafficking wasn’t the horror of being lured to Israel under some false pretense like oh you’re gonna be a nannie or you have this job or that and they’re getting all these Eastern Europeans and then just taking their passport away and forcing them to work in a brothel no it was because they uh it was disturbing the Jewish majority demographic”

(3) The laws that were passed by the Knesset were designed to ensure children could be used and raped then deported when they were adults and no longer desirable to paedophiles, […] so once they were of age uh they were no longer desirable sexually they deported them back to wherever they stole them from based on illegal immigration.”

At the end of the video, Sonia fulsomely thanks Dawson, apologises for any technical issues and expresses a wish to get him involved again. She in no way condemns or criticises his views. She later posted this on Twitter [1] (archive):

Riddings Park Community Centre: Moderate Trustees Resign Over Event by Extremist Sonia Poulton

After being put on an indefinite hiatus by the video sharing platform One VSP, extremist Sonia Poulton has been trying to fundraise by other means. On Saturday 9th December, concerningly, Riddings Park Community Centre allowed an event of hers to go ahead despite being notified of some of Sonia Poulton’s content. Meanwhile her former platform Brand New Tube has been reprimanded by the ICO, shortly before it was renamed One VSP, and is now under investigation by OfCom. A judge has found that allegations of child abuse made against Poulton by Hemming as part of his libel and harassment claim have, “a real prospect of success”.

Sonia Poulton promotes Albert Bishai

Sonia Poulton promotes the channel of a man called Albert Bishai – with this sinister graphic. In your author’s opinion, this graphic bears the racist and anti-Semitic meaning, promoted by Sonia Poulton, that the world is ruled by a Jewish conspiracy in the name of Satan. According to the public notice of investigation, OfCom are investigating whether One VSP has taken sufficient measures to protect the general public from, “material that would amount to a criminal offence under laws relating to terrorism, child sexual exploitation and abuse, and racism and xenophobia”.

In a recent court judgement, allegations of child abuse against Poulton were found to have a ‘real prospect of success’ and John Hemming was given permission to bring a claim against Poulton on that basis. Screenshots from his draft amendments to his claim and the judgement below:

John Hemming New Pleadings Malice Crime Accepted

John Hemming’s pleadings that Sonia is guilty of a criminal offence of child abuse by her naming two children who had been tortured in breach of a court order. The court found this had a, ‘real prospect of success’.

Judgement November 2023 - Judge Finds Real Prospects of Success on Child Abuse Allegations Against Poulton

In her judgement of November 2023 – Ms Justice Hill DBE allowed Hemming permission to bring a claim of malicious defamation against Sonia Poulton. The claim is based on her abusing two child torture victims by naming them in breach of a court order. When Poulton was interviewed by police and the video was taken town, it is alleged that she then defamed John Hemming and others as having tried to frame her. The judge found the claim has a ‘real prospect of success’.

The remaining Trustees have not denied any of the allegations when they were put in writing by MHN.

The content of Sonia Poulton’s output is now the topic of concern from many people and institutions. We will continue to campaign for her to be de-platformed for promoting hate speech and reckless, irresponsible journalism. The two resignees are to be commended. The remaining Trustees have only themselves to blame for being tarred with the brush of Poulton’s vile extremism.

High Court Judge: Child Abuse Allegations Against Sonia Poulton Have, “real prospect of success”

Sonia Poulton Video Statement

A High Court Judge has found that, child abuse allegations against Sonia Poulton have a real prospect of success.

Readers will likely have seen my previous article about the massive costs hit of £30,000 Sonia Poulton took in the High Court judgement of Mrs Justice Hill released on 24th November 2023, which is available on BAILII here. Poulton has of course published her own highly biased account. One fact she has chosen not to share with donors and supporters is the fact that the judge found child abuse allegations against her – specifically that she is guilty of a criminal offence for naming two child torture victims in breach of a court order – to have a, “real prospect of success”.

In 2021 Poulton was interviewed by police after naming two child torture victims in breach of a court order. My careful article opining that this amounted to child abuse, referring only to public judgements made available by permission of the judge, is still online – #UnfollowSoniaPoulton: Reminder that the Fringe Journalist who Attacked the Queen is a Child Abuser. After the interview, her co-host Shaun Attwood says he accepted a caution and the video was removed. Poulton claims she did not accept a caution and no further action was taken. In a witness statement used at the public hearing on 17-18 October this year, she produced a heavily redacted police email appearing to confirm the no further action decision, but in which she had redacted the sender, crime number and the reason no further action was taken.

Horrifyingly, she also said as follows – […]The Metropolitan Police have been very clear that sharing the video is a criminal act […]. This of course, dovetails nicely with one of the additions John Hemming wanted to make to his claim, which the judge permitted, that Sonia was malicious in a post in which Sonia accuses him of trying to frame her for a crime. The basis of the malice pleading was firstly, John did not report her and did not know about it until afterwards, secondly, because she had no reason to think he reported her and thirdly because she knew she was guilty. This pleading was allowed. The important question is why?
