Dear Commissioner Richards,
As you’ll doubtless be aware, last week’s inaugural Police Governance Steering Group meeting has indirectly generated much heated debate on both sides of the political spectrum. In a fortnight when offensive images were the burning issue within the Magistrates and the Supreme Court, the photographic image of you centre-stage posing for the camera most certainly adds to the rich picture.

First up before the GBC, we had Keith Azopardi accusing The Chief Minister of hypocrisy and of previously showing disdain for issues concerned with police governance. In response, viewers were subsequently treated to an inglorious and dastardly and desperate finale during Fabian Pinocchio’s counter-offensive interview before an increasingly emboldened Christine Vasquez, where Peter Openshaw’s long-awaited up-and-coming report about the McGrail Inquiry, cropped up in discussions.
“Chief, Minister, do you think that this could stem from concerns that you’re not going to make the report public and will try and hide the findings?” [Timecode – 5:50]
Pinocchio replied thus.
“Well, look, I’ve had to face those sorts of concerns on so many issues. These are conspiracy theories befitting the fools who think that vaccines are bad for us. Um, and I do hope that the leader of the opposition for whom I have the highest intellectual regard is not falling into that nonsense style conspiracy.” [Timecode – 5:59]

In response the next day, Keith Azopardi Leader of the GSD accused the Government of showing signs of nervousness in response to criticism of police governance reforms. The leader of the opposition reiterated that undermining separate constitutional checks and balances by bringing a motion to Parliament on the McGrail Inquiry would be unacceptable. The Opposition described the Government’s latest response as “twitchy in the extreme” and included references to people (Pinocchio’s Fools) and firms that had not even been mentioned in the GSD’s earlier press release, suggesting a guilty conscience.
I don’t vote for politicians but fathoming out why filibustering Fabian should stoop so low as to make disparaging remarks about “the fools who think the vaccines are bad for us” is not so difficult to discern.
Pinocchio does have a guilty conscience. Christine Vasquez, as the interviewer, ought to have asked Pinocchio to publicly name the fools to whom he was referring, in an interview that was about police governance. Even by Pinocchio’s own brazen standards, it was a striking twist and turn both in time and place.
By 13th October 2025 both the GBC and the Gibraltar Chronicle had each covered the promotion of the Covid vaccines which were associated with Dr Helen Carter’s advice. According to the GBC, she asserted, “It’s extremely important to protect yourself and your loved ones by taking-up the vaccine offer”. Important for whom? Pfizer?

After the trial verdict went against the three senior practioners in the GHA, could it be that Fabian suddenly started to feel a little fragile and vulnerable? And can it be that Pinocchio had become somewhat irked that Dr. Carter and two others of similar ilk from the GHA, had all lost their court cases against one of Fabian’s fools? The fool on the hill had after all taken on the might of the GHA in the Magistrates Court, and with a little help from a friend, got himself acquitted?

A few days after Carter’s Covid vaccine promotion went full throttle, herself and two other senior medical musketeers from the Gibraltar Health Authority, namely Sandra Gracia and Krishna Rawal, were firing shots against Pinocchio’s Fool before Stipendiary Magistrate Charles Bonfante. They were seemingly grossly offended by an image which Pinocchio’s Fool had displayed in an article originating from an email that PINOCCHIO’s FOOL sent to all three complainants who lost their case. It was pointed out in the courtroom that Pinocchio, the Chief Minister could so easily have joined them making up a foursome, but chose instead to hide himself in the shadows and let the three stooges from the GHA, do his dirty work for him.

Before the trial commenced, one of Fabian Pinocchio’s fools was informed that the Crown Prosecution had dropped the case arising from a complaint waged against him by none other than Krishna Rawal, the first person to appear before the cameras supposedly getting jabbed on The Rock. This was when he was acting as Chief Medical Advisor during the Pandemic. The Crown Prosecution’s decision to drop the complaint of Krishna Rawal was, on the surface, because he had somehow not received the inoffensive email which Pinocchio’s Fool confessed plainly to have sent him. So in effect, the UNLAWFUL cases against one of Fabian Pinocchio’s Fools was determined by an inoffensive email, rather than a highly provocative article.
During cross-examination, Pinocchio’s Fool asked Dr. Helen Carter numerous questions, during which the following was established about Dr. Helen Carter:
• Carter acknowledged that Pinocchio’s facial image was also in the collective frame, but she did not know if the Chief Minister had made a complaint.
• Carter never watched the film “Died Suddenly” despite encouragement from The Fools on The Hill.
• Carter never watched the documentary “Democide on The Rock” despite The Fools making it for her and her buddies. Carter has no recollection of the Prosecution ever mentioning “Democide on the Rock” to her, as they were asked to do by the Fool, on three separate pre-trial occasions.
• Carter admitted that she had only spoken to the fool briefly on a couple of occasions.
• Carter’s statement as read-out under oath was worded as follows: “Initially, between October and November 2021, Tony would approach me outside no 6 Convent Place. I would begin walking towards MAIN STREET, by AMAR’S BAKERY and he would consistently enquire as to whether I had seen videos and films relating to the Covid conspirator theories. He was never aggressive, nor did he raise his voice, and I did not find him threatening, however, I did not feel comfortable by this interaction as I just wished to be left in peace.”
• The Fool has some difficulty reconciling Carter’s assertion in the reading of her statement that “Outside No.6, he would consistently enquire”, with her eventually admitting when cross examined under oath that “We only ever spoke together on two brief occasions”. How is this not perjury? It certainly appears to be perjury to The Fool and The Gibraltar Messenger.
• Carter was asked about the Restorative Event held on 23rd March 2023, but only retrospectively became aware that Dr Aseem Malhotra had been present at the event. Carter did not admit to knowing about his main announcement which The Fool read out to her as follows:
“Dr Carter, are you aware that during the Restorative event held in Gibraltar on 30th March 2023, Dr Aseem Malhotra said – to thunderous applause – the following: ‘I call on the Gibraltar Government, and the Director of Public Health Helen Carter, to make sure that they make a public announcement that there needs to be an investigation and suspension of all these Covid mRNA vaccines in Gibraltar’?”
• The Fool followed-up with another question.“Dr Carter, have you ever seen the unredacted Pfizer purchasing agreement between the UK Government and Pfizer/BioNTech?” To which Carter replied by answering with a “No”.
• Through no fault of Carter’s, The Fool, in asking a question, inadvertently stated the incorrect year that he had submitted a crime report to former Commissioner Richard Ullger.
• Carter clarified how she had promoted the vaccines in the mainstream media in the same week as the trial’s commencement.
• When questioned about the Hippocratic Oath, Dr. Carter mentioned Medical School and abiding by the GNC Code of Conduct.
• Regarding The Fool’s question about the principle of First Do No Harm, Carter responded, “Patient Safety is Important, Yes.”
• The Fool had no further questions for Carter.
Sandra Gracia was up next before Pinocchio’s Fool.

• The Fool’s Opening Gambit focused on an event mentioned at the beginning of Ms. Gracia’s statement, commonly referred to as ‘Restart the Heart Day’, where a well-documented unplanned encounter had taken place between The Fool and The Director of Nursing and Ambulance Services. This encounter had occurred on November 2023 in Casemates Square. Ms. Gracia saw fit to call the police, because she obviously did not like my line of questioning. While no arrest took place on ‘Restart a Heart Day’, days later, The Fool on The Hill, had produced an article and had it published on the Gibraltar Messenger.
• In court, The Fool made references to Michael ‘Destiny’ Jones, a former Ambulance Officer on duty that particular day. The ambulance officer had disclosed to me his own vaccine injuries.
•However, in court, Ms. Gracia declined The Fool’s opening gambit and his kind invitation for her to look at the Gibraltar Messenger article, which the former Commissioner Richard Ullger had previously declared was an interesting read. There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.
• The Fool asked about the specifics of the offending imagery, the nurse’s knowledge of the unredacted UK Purchasing Agreement of the Pfizer vaccines, and the nurse’s role in promoting the vaccines, and elicited answers heard by the Magistrate Charles Bonfante.

Krishna Rawal although present in the court foyer, was not called as a witness as The Crown Prosecution had dropped his case for reasons previously outlined. Thus it came to pass that I was denied a hat-trick of length of the pitch tries.
The police evidence used against me was presented by PC Harry Quinn. PC Quinn, in his subsequent testimony in court, kept referring to the defendant saying “Jesus Christ”, but under cross examination, The Fool managed to get the not so mighty Quinn to concede that Jesus’ name was never once mentioned in the interview. In the interview itself, PC Quinn mentions hanging is murder and violence. Again, the not so mighty Quinn forgets the hangings of those found guilty was used as just punishment for them murdering thousands. Such double standards. So they can murder hundreds, thousands, but the judicial system can’t hang them because that would be considered violence? Only in hell is this rationale spewed out with no thought to what one is saying. Justice is not violence.
Officer Quinn; by stating that hanging is against the law in Gibraltar and is violence, rather than being justice, when God’s Law demands the death-penalty; proves that he was being presumptuous, and was rejecting The Sentence of The Law. He thereby puts himself under the death-sentence of God’s (THE) Law –
Deuteronomy 17:10 And thou shalt do according to The Sentence, which they of that place which the “I AM” shall choose shall show thee; and thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform thee:
17:11 According to The Sentence of The Law which they shall teach thee, and according to the Judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline to do The Sentence which they shall show thee, and turn not away from it [to] the right hand, nor [to] the left.
17:12 And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the “I AM” thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and [thus] thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
17:13 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously (in thinking they are a law unto themselves).
Over lunch, The Magistrate Bonfante watched the police interview-video, in order to prevent the trial running into a second day. The video recording can be watched below:
In his defence, Pinocchio’s Fool called upon another one of Pinocchio’s Fools to act as a witness, and that witness cited another one of Pinocchio’s Fools, only this time it was The Fool who wrote the U.S. Biological Weapons Anti‑Terrorism Act of 1989.
In summary, Pinocchio’s Fool alias Tony Farrell read out a summary message intended to be heard by the complainants. None of them could be bothered to stay and hear the verdicts. My two messages can be listened to below:
Tony Farrell to Sandra Gracia

Tony Farrell to Helen Carter

After hearing all the evidence, Bonfante dealing now with only two, not three UNLAWFUL charges of Improper Use of Public Electronic Storage Devices contrary to a Section of the UNLAWFUL Crimes Act, returned a verdict of “NOT GUILTY” to both. Charles Bonfante indicated his unwillingness to go so far as to describe the image in question as grossly offensive. The threshold was thus not met. The image itself can be seen, as deployed by me above, in various locations in Gibraltar, such as at the footsteps of St. Bernard’s Hospital. The two relevant articles are “A Fair Cop and The Sandwich Board Offensive” and “Offensive – A Story from Tony Farrell”.
The Adjournment of The Contempt of Parliament Trial on 14th October 2025
Two days earlier, on the date that had been set for a trial for the UNLAWFUL charge of Contempt of Parliament Contrary to Section 77(c) of The Parliamentary Act 1950, events had unfolded unexpectedly. In the morning session The Magistrate addressed three separate matters before the court. None of these matters went in Pinocchio’s Fool’s favour, and so, hopes of having a trial by jury held in the Supreme Court were thwarted, for the time being at least.
However in the afternoon session, owing to a “miscommunication” about an application to adjourn the trial, Pinocchio’s Fool had stood down in his pre trial preparation, believing that the trial was no longer proceeding on the date in question. The Magistrate indicated that there was an acceptable reason for it, indicating that it was an unfairness that must be remedied. Therefore The Magistrate granted Pinocchio’s Fool his request for an adjournment. The trial has been adjourned until March 11th 2026. The Miscommunication referred to involves Justin Rodriguez, but that’s an altogether different story to be told elsewhere.

It’s quite telling that neither the GBC, nor The Gibraltar Chronicle afforded any coverage to Pinocchio’s Fool’s two mid October trials. However, they sure as hell covered what Chief Minster Pinocchio had to say about matters of Police Governance. Pinocchio’s Fool happens to think that Azopardi got it right by inferring that the reason why The Chief Minister brought up the vaccines at the end, is because of his guilty conscience, and that these are desperate times for a Chief Minister who should have been long since arrested for his democide and crimes against humanity, as perpetrated on the people in Gibraltar. As Charles Bonfante, said on numerous occasions, that’s a matter for the police, and The Gibraltar Messenger points out, “In the hands of the Commissioner Owain Richards”.
