    Willoughby Surgery:Akashic Records: Two Sides of the Same Journey

    Tonight I opened with the foundation-course format and took a run of live questions on company filings, GOV.UK One Login, Universal Credit, bank accounts, debt collection, bailiffs, CCJs, parking issues, and the practical steps listeners are trying to take to organise their paperwork and protect themselves. A big theme throughout the first half was confidence through understanding: knowing what documents say, knowing what systems do, and knowing how to respond calmly instead of reacting in fear.In the second half, Matt joined me for a deeper spiritual conversation on the Akashic Records. We connected this discussion to recent shows on manifestation and energy fields, and explored ideas around the ether, source, astral communication, astral travelling, sacred geometry, the pineal gland, Kundalini, and the way films, symbols, and myth can act as prompts for bigger questions about consciousness. Between us, we shared personal frameworks and experiences for thinking about the Akashic Records not as something distant, but as something we are already connected to.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/Willoughby Challenger: https://www.willoughbychallenger.uk/Willoughby Rumble: https://www.willoughbyrumble.uk/Companies House – Find and update company information: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/GOV.UK One Login: https://www.gov.uk/using-your-gov-uk-one-loginUniversal Credit: https://www.gov.uk/universal-creditNHS website: https://www.nhs.uk/Royal Courts of Justice: https://www.find-court-tribunal.service.gov.uk/courts/royal-courts-of-justiceHalifax: https://www.halifax.co.uk/PRA Group UK: https://pragroup.co.uk/British Gas: https://www.britishgas.co.uk/Revolut: https://www.revolut.com/Bank of England: https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/Visa: https://www.visa.com/Register a trade mark (UK IPO): https://www.gov.uk/how-to-register-a-trade-markThe Sovereign Project: https://www.thesovereignproject.live/Mindvalley: https://www.mindvalley.com/Sacha Stone: https://sachastone.com/NewXEarth: https://newxearth.com/Star Wars: https://www.starwars.com/Interstellar: https://www.paramountpictures.com/movies/interstellarSpaceballs official trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RK0yd4LtLdgNeville Goddard: https://nevillegoddard.com/

    Common Man Airwaves: Freemasons and the Knights Templar: Origins, Myths and Money

    In this first of a three-part run, I set out the broad historical map the series will follow, starting with Solomon’s Temple, the destruction of the First and Second Temples, and the Masonic legend of Hiram Abiff before moving into the rise of the Knights Templar. I explain the traditional account of how the Templars emerged to protect pilgrims travelling to Jerusalem, how they grew into a wealthy transnational force, and why they are so often linked with the origins of early banking. From there, I trace the story through Philip IV of France, the Friday 13th arrests, the torture of captured Templars, and the enduring mysteries around where their wealth may have gone, including Oak Island and my own theory about Switzerland.From my perspective as a former Freemason, I also break down the structure of Craft Masonry, the Holy Royal Arch, the York Rite, the Scottish Rite and the ceremonial Knights Templar orders attached to Freemasonry. Along the way, I answer a listener question about leaving the organisation, explain why I eventually walked away, and reflect on the difference between the charitable, ordinary face of Masonry and the more troubling conclusions I came to about what may sit further up the chain. It’s a scene-setting episode designed to give the historical framework before Sook takes the lead in the next instalments on symbolism, esoteric meanings and how these ideas are said to echo through everyday life.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Food For Thought Radio Schedule (includes Common Man Airwaves, The People’s Lawyer Reality Check, Mark The Bowler Hat Farmer and Bases Actual): https://www.fftradio.com/schedule/Rumble: https://rumble.com/Zoom: https://www.zoom.com/United Grand Lodge of England: https://www.ugle.org.uk/The Royal Arch (UGLE): https://www.ugle.org.uk/about-us/royal-archThe Goose and Gridiron at Freemasons’ Hall: https://www.ugle.org.uk/freemasons-hall/goose-and-gridironSouthgate Masonic Centre: https://www.southgatemasoniccentre.co.uk/contact-usYork Rite Official Information Site: https://www.yorkrite.org/icon/Grand Encampment Knights Templar, U.S.A.: https://usagekt.org/Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction, U.S.A.

    Willoughby Surgery: Structured Water, Home Education and Taking Back Control

    Tonight I split the programme into two very different but connected conversations about reclaiming control. In the first part, I worked through listener questions from the Foundation training course, focusing on vehicle paperwork, insurance forms, company ownership structures, and the importance of checking documents carefully before accepting them. We also spent time on home education, why I believe more parents are questioning the school system, and how creating more financial freedom could open the door to educating children in a way that better matches their needs, interests and future paths.In the second part, Matt and I were joined by Dr Jo Whitaker for a wide-ranging discussion on structured water, coherence, manifestation, cymatics, memory in water, and the wider relationship between biology, energy and information. We explored researchers and ideas around EZ water, morphogenesis and resonance, while also touching on how modern systems encourage people to outsource their power. Altogether, it was a conversation about autonomy — in law, in learning, in health and in how we understand the world around us.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Discord: https://willoughbydiscord.uk/Crystal Water Experience: https://crystalwaterexperience.com/Dr Jo Whitaker – Crystal Water Experience About Page: https://crystalwaterexperience.com/about-us/Pollack Laboratory / EZ Water – Gerald Pollack: https://www.pollacklab.org/Office Masaru Emoto: https://masaru-emoto.net/en/Message from Water – Office Masaru Emoto: https://masaru-emoto.net/en/mfw/Pure Fluid / Toby Jacobs: https://purefluid.life/ENTIFY – Toby Jacobs: https://entify.world/aboutThe Levin Lab – Michael Levin: https://www.drmichaellevin.org/Rupert Sheldrake: https://sheldrake.org/Compare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/DVLA – V5C / Log Book Information: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/application-for-a-vehicle-registration-certificateCompanies House: https://resources.companieshouse.gov.uk/HM Land Registry: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registryRoyal Courts of Justice: https://www.find-court-tribunal.service.gov.uk/courts/royal-courts-of-justiceNHS Services: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/Barclays: https://www.barclays.co.uk/NatWest: https://www.natwest.com/Hastings Direct Car Insurance: https://www.hastingsdirect.com/car-insurance/The People’s Lawyer: https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/School - No Place For Children: A Wake-Up Call by David Adelman: https://www.hatchards.co.uk/book/school-no-place-for-children/david-adelman/9781978370036

    Common Man Airwaves: Homeschooling: The Law, the Myths and What Parents Need to Know

    In this episode, I revisit our homeschooling theme by breaking down the legal position in England for parents considering home education. I walk through what currently applies: when you do and do not need council permission, the fact that you are not required to follow the National Curriculum, how deregistration from school works, what councils can ask, and some of the most common myths around home visits, timetables and exams. I also flag the proposed legal changes passed on 29 April 2026 that had not yet come into force at the time of recording, so families understand what is changing now versus what may change later.I then hand over to Suk, who shares how he educated his own son after taking him out of school and why he believes parents should focus less on reproducing a broken curriculum and more on teaching children how to think, learn and build practical life skills. We explore the Trivium and Quadrivium, Dorothy Sayers’ famous essay on the “lost tools of learning”, logical fallacies, strengths-based development, and the value of tailoring education to a child’s interests — whether that means martial arts, survival skills, mechanics or entrepreneurship. The heart of the conversation is simple: if we are going to homeschool, we should use that freedom to raise capable, independent young people rather than merely recreate school at home.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Discord: https://willoughbydiscord.uk/Trivium Education: https://www.triviumeducation.com/Tragedy and Hope Media: https://tragedyandhope.com/Mark Passio – What On Earth Is Happening: https://www.markpassio.com/Dorothy Sayers – The Lost Tools of Learning: https://napcis.org/TheLostToolsofLearning.pdfTrivium Pursuit: https://triviumpursuit.com/Teaching the Trivium: Christian Homeschooling in a Classical Style: https://triviumpursuit.com/product/teaching-the-trivium-christian-homeschooling-in-a-classical-style/Gallup CliftonStrengths: https://www.gallup.com/cliftonstrengths/en/David Adelman – The People’s Lawyer: https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/School – No Place For Children by David Adelman: https://www.hatchards.co.uk/book/school-no-place-for-children/david-adelman/9781978370036Progressive Property: https://progressiveproperty.co.uk/Rob Moore – Progressive Property: https://progressiveproperty.co.uk/our-co-founders/rob-moore/Richard Vobes: https://www.vobes.com/Rumble: https://rumble.com/

    Willoughby Surgery: Debt, Bailiffs and Manifestation

    In this episode, I opened the surgery by taking practical questions on debt, bailiffs, council tax pressure and CCJs, with a particular focus on how listeners are using company structures within the foundation course. I walked through the difference between keeper and owner for vehicles, why that split can help in some enforcement scenarios, and why council tax cases may require a different arrangement. We also discussed EDP for property, the process of challenging CCJs and defaults, and how tools such as Challenger, Challenger Collection, the Willoughby GDPR Institute and Willoughby Data Busters fit into the wider system I’ve been building to help people push back against debt collection and legal intimidation.In the second half, Matt joined me for the first of our new open discussions, and we explored manifestation through the lens of frequency, vibration and attention. Between us, we shared examples, stories and practical techniques, from affirmations and gratitude to the Silva Method, Neville Goddard’s teachings and the idea of aligning yourself with the reality you want to experience. We also touched on Anthony Hopkins’ remarkable Petrovka story, Helen Hadsell’s contest-winning reputation, and why future conversations will dig even deeper into sound, water, vibration and consciousness.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/Willoughby GDPR Institute: https://www.willoughby-gdpr.institute/Willoughby Data Busters: https://www.willoughbydatabusters.uk/The Silva Method: https://silvamethod.com/José Silva: https://josesilva.net/Neville Goddard (publisher author page): https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Neville-Goddard/2124775706Magick by Aleister Crowley: https://redwheelweiser.com/book/magick-9780877289197/Aleister Crowley: https://www.aleistercrowley.org/Anthony Hopkins (official art site): https://anthonyhopkinsart.com/Stripe: https://stripe.com/PayPal UK: https://www.paypal.com/uk/homeExperian UK: https://www.experian.co.uk/Equifax UK: https://www.equifax.co.uk/TransUnion UK: https://www.transunion.co.uk/Barclays credit cards / Barclaycard: https://www.barclays.co.uk/credit-cards/Lowell UK: https://www.lowell.co.uk/Lowell Group: https://www.lowell.com/ChatGPT: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/12677804-what-is-chatgpt-faqClaude: https://claude.ai/Gemini: https://gemini.google/us/about/?hl=enTelegram: https://telegram.org/

    Common Man Airwaves: Homeschooling, Critical Thinking and the Lost Tools of Learning

    This week on Food For Thought Radio, Suk and I opened up a big conversation about homeschooling: why more parents are questioning the mainstream school system, what education is actually meant to achieve, and why teaching children how to think may matter far more than teaching them what to memorise. We explored Suk’s own experience of taking his son out of school, the limits of the national curriculum in both state and private settings, and the wider concern that schooling often rewards conformity and recall rather than curiosity, discernment and genuine understanding.We also dug into older models of learning, especially Dorothy L. Sayers’ essay The Lost Tools of Learning and the classical trivium framework of grammar, logic and rhetoric. From there, we looked at how those ideas connect to critical thinking, resisting propaganda, practical life skills, and helping children discover their own path rather than simply being directed into one. Next time, we’ll go deeper into the trivium itself and look more closely at the legal and practical side of home education.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Common Man Airwaves: https://www.fftradio.com/schedule/Charles Fernandez: https://www.fftradio.com/djs/charles-fernandez/David Adelman: https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/The People’s Lawyer Reality Check: https://www.fftradio.com/djs/david-adelman/Dorothy L Sayers: https://www.sayers.org.uk/The Lost Tools of Learning: https://www.gbt.org/text/sayers.htmlTrivium: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TriviumQuadrivium: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuadriviumMark Byford / The Bowler Hat Farmer: https://thebowlerhatfarmer.com/Food Finders Hub: https://foodfindershub.com/David Wynn Miller: https://www.dwmlc.net/copy-of-doj-1Russell-Jay Gould: https://www.russelljaygould.com/russell-jay-gould/Aristotle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AristotleSocrates: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SocratesPlato: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlatoJulius Caesar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_CaesarColumbo: https://www.universalpicturesathome.com/tv/columbo-the-complete-original-seriesMiss Marple: https://www.agathachristie.com/characters/miss-marpleBases Actual with Miles Johnston: https://www.fftradio.com/schedule/

    Willoughby Surgery: Names, Jurisdiction and Standing Your Ground

    Tonight I revisited the core ideas behind the Foundation course and answered a string of listener questions about how the system, identity, jurisdiction and paperwork fit together from my perspective. I walked through the sequence I teach: securing your name via a limited company, registering a trade mark, and using an enrolled deed poll to distinguish your personal identity from the all-caps version commonly used across official documents. I also discussed how I believe those steps relate to court procedure, house deeds, Land Registry entries and the wider question of how people choose to operate between what I described as the ‘legal’ and the ‘lawful’.We then moved into practical Q&A, including HMRC correspondence for dormant companies, self-assessment and tax, vehicle ownership and keeper arrangements, hire purchase and leased cars, and dealing with enforcement agents. I also highlighted the wider Willoughby ecosystem — Discord, Genius, Challenger, Pix Busters and Databusters — and explained how those tools are intended to help members organise information, challenge debts, pursue data-rights issues and learn the processes discussed on the show.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Discord: https://willoughbydiscord.uk/Charles-edward Fernandez / Willoughby Trinity: https://www.willoughbytrinity.com/Willoughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/Willoughby Challenger: https://www.willoughbychallenger.uk/Willoughby Pix Busters: https://www.willoughbypixbusters.uk/Willoughby Databusters: https://www.willoughbydatabusters.uk/Willoughby GDPR Institute: https://www.willoughby-gdpr.institute/Companies House: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/companies-house/aboutCompanies House register search: https://company-information.service.gov.uk/HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC): https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-revenue-customs/aboutHM Land Registry: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/aboutDriver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA): https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/driver-and-vehicle-licensing-agency/aboutNHS: https://www.nhs.uk/Enrol a deed poll with the courts: https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-poll/enrol-a-deed-poll-with-the-courtsThe Gazette: https://www.thegazette.co.uk/Intellectual Property Office trade marks guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/intellectual-property-trade-marksSearch for a trade mark: https://www.gov.uk/search-for-trademarkICO subject access requests guidance: https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/subject-access-requests/Facewatch: https://www.facewatch.co.uk/Tesco: https://www.tesco.com/Sainsbury's: https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/Morrisons: https://www.morrisons.com/Compare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/Enterprise Rent-A-Car: https://www.enterprise.co.uk/en/home.htmlDiscord: https://discord.com/Road Traffic Act 1988: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/52/contentsTribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2007/15/contents

    Common Man Airwaves: Trial by Jury: Where We Are Now and What Comes Next

    In this episode, I sat down with Sukh for an extended recap of our six-part series on trial by jury, natural law and what we see as the difference between the lawful and the legal. We revisited the key themes from the earlier episodes, including conscience, intent and consent, jury annulment, Magna Carta 1215, Article 61, and the idea that real democracy is exercised through juries rather than party politics. We also explored how these ideas are being applied by people trying to challenge government overreach, local planning disputes, surveillance technologies and other pressures on everyday life.We then brought the conversation into the present day by focusing on action: building local groups, sharing knowledge, supporting one another through community networks, and helping listeners find practical starting points if they want to get involved. We discussed campaigns, educational platforms, trusted contacts, and examples of communities already organising around local issues. The big theme running through the whole show was that if people want lasting change, they need both understanding and coordinated action at community level.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Sovereign Trust: https://sovereigntrust.net/Rapid Response Support Network: https://rapidresponse.support/Common Law Constitution: https://www.commonlawconstitution.org/Law and Alchemy: https://www.lawandalchemy.org/Democracy Defined: https://democracydefined.org/Awakened England blog: https://awakenedgb.wordpress.com/The Sovereign Project: https://www.thesovereignproject.live/The Sovereign Project Wiki: https://wiki.thesovereignproject.live/Lysander Spooner, An Essay on the Trial by Jury: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/32984/32984-h/32984-h.htmThe Pirbright Institute: https://www.pirbright.ac.uk/Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Porton Down): https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/defence-science-and-technology-laboratory/aboutUK Health Security Agency: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-health-security-agencyFacewatch: https://www.facewatch.co.uk/Three UK: https://www.three.co.uk/Sainsbury's: https://corporate.sainsburys.co.uk/Morrisons: https://www.morrisons.com/Gates Foundation: https://www.gatesfoundation.org/David Icke: https://davidicke.com/Richard Vobes: https://www.vobes.co.uk/about.htmlEdward Fitzgerald: https://www.edward-fitzgerald.com/interviewsWilloughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/

    Willoughby Surgery: From Property Registers to Utility Disputes Q&A

    This evening I welcomed Graham Miles as a new host, shared an update on the Challenger build, and pointed listeners towards Food Finders Hub for anyone wanting to source food more directly from farms, farm shops and local producers. I then revisited the foundation course for newer listeners, outlining the main steps we discuss in the community: claiming and structuring a company, registering a trade mark, using an enrolled deed poll, updating records with bodies such as the NHS and Land Registry, and separating keeper and owner paperwork on a vehicle.In the second half, I took questions from listeners on trusts, property records, enrolled deed poll paperwork, NHS and passport changes, inheritance planning, utility disputes, and correspondence connected to E.ON and Northampton Business Centre. I also explained where Challenger and DataBusters currently stand in development, how they are intended to help members organise evidence and challenge claims, and why persistence, accurate paperwork and good record-keeping remain central to the wider Willoughby process.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Food Finders Hub: https://foodfindershub.com/Willoughby Discord: https://willoughbydiscord.uk/Willoughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/Willoughby Challenger: https://www.willoughbychallenger.uk/Willoughby Data Busters: https://www.willoughbydatabusters.uk/Companies House search service: https://company-information.service.gov.uk/Register a trade mark (GOV.UK): https://www.gov.uk/how-to-register-a-trade-mark/start-your-applicationEnrol a deed poll with the courts (GOV.UK): https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-poll/enrol-a-deed-poll-with-the-courtsHM Land Registry: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/aboutLand registration searches, fees and forms: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/land-registration-searches-fees-and-formsForm RX1: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1180571/RX1__2023-08-29_.pdfNHS website: https://www.nhs.uk/V5C registration certificate guidance (GOV.UK): https://www.gov.uk/change-vehicle-details-registration-certificate/what-evidence-to-giveRoad Traffic Act 1988: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/52/pdfs/ukpga_19880052_en.pdfTribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2007/15/pdfs/ukpga_20070015_en.pdfInformation Commissioner's Office: https://ico.org.uk/GPG 45 - How to prove and verify someone's identity: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/identity-proofing-and-verification-of-an-individualNational Grid: https://www.nationalgrid.com/about-us/what-we-doHM Revenue & Customs: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-revenue-customs/aboutCrown Prosecution Service: https://www.cps.gov.uk/Royal Courts of Justice contacts: https://www.judiciary.uk/contacts/E.ON Next: https://www.eonnext.com/EDF: https://www.edfenergy.com/aboutBritish Gas: https://www.britishgas.co.uk/legal-compliance/legal-information.htmlOctopus Energy: https://octopus.energy/Compare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/Anglian Water: https://www.anglianwater.co.uk/Discord: https://discord.com/Zoom: https://www.zoom.com/Adidas: https://www.adidas.co.uk/Puma: https://uk.puma.com/uk/enNike: https://www.nike.com/gb/

    Common Man Airwaves: Magna Carta, Myth-Making and Trial by Jury

    In this episode, I’m joined by  Sukh for a wide-ranging discussion on the myths and misconceptions she believes surround the British constitution, Magna Carta, covenant versus contract, and the historical role of trial by jury. We look at the argument that Magna Carta 1215 remains foundational, explore claims about later versions of the charter, and touch on a number of related references, from Lysander Spooner and Kenn d’Oudney to Common Law Assent, the English Constitution Society, and Albert Burgess’s writing on the English constitution.We also move into a closing discussion about the Princess Diana inquest, the documentary Unlawful Killing, and why Sukh argues that the case highlights the importance of an independent judiciary. Along the way, we reference Ironclad, the Treaty of Nice, the Balfour Declaration, and several constitutional and legal sources that listeners may want to explore before next week’s follow-up episode.Magna Carta Trust: https://www.magnacartatrust.org/homeLysander Spooner – Works (including An Essay on the Trial by Jury): https://www.lysanderspooner.org/worksDemocracy Defined by Kenn d’Oudney: https://democracydefined.org/Democracy Defined – Trial by Jury: Its History, True Purpose and Modern Relevance: https://www.democracydefined.org/5constitution.htmCommon Law Assent: https://www.commonlawassent.com/English Constitution Society: https://www.englishconstitutionsociety.co.uk/A Layman’s Guide to the English Constitution by Albert Burgess: https://www.lulu.com/shop/albert-burgess/laymans-guide-to-the-english-constitution/ebook/product-1rgp2854.htmlIronclad (film): https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/ironclad/umc.cmc.554fin11bri1vwnzrn1glc5oeCoroner’s inquests into the deaths of Diana, Princess of Wales and Mr Dodi Al Fayed: https://resources.ials.sas.ac.uk/eagle-i/coroners-inquests-deaths-diana-princess-wales-and-mr-dodi-al-fayedOperation Paget report (BBC-hosted PDF): https://downloads.bbc.co.uk/news/nol/shared/bsp/hi/pdfs/14_12_06_diana_report.pdfTreaty of Nice (Council of the European Union): https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/documents/treaties-agreements/agreement/?id=2001010Black’s Law Dictionary (Thomson Reuters): https://legal.thomsonreuters.com/en/products/law-books/blacks-law-dictionaryBalfour Declaration (House of Commons Library briefing): https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-7766/Willoughby Rumble: https://www.willoughbyrumble.uk/Satanic Empire / PedoEmpire site referenced in the discussion: https://pedoempire.org/

    Willoughby Surgery: Deed Polls, House Deeds, Fighting Back Against Bailiffs

    Tonight I picked up where we left off with the foundation course and walked through the key steps as I see them: setting up a limited company, using trademarks, changing name details by deed poll, updating records with bodies such as the Land Registry and NHS, and separating vehicle keeper and owner details. I also explained why I believe these steps can help listeners handle disputes around property, vehicles, utilities, fines and day-to-day administration more confidently.In the second half, we opened the floor to questions from listeners on utilities defaults, council tax and insolvency threats, parking notices, vehicle paperwork, and dealing with bailiffs. I also introduced the thinking behind the Challenger Collection tool, including role-play training, body-worn video, and structured doorstep responses, and we touched on wider topics including credit agencies, Chris Coverdale’s work, Bitcoin, and long-term planning around assets and inheritance.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Discord: https://discord.com/Zoom: https://www.zoom.com/Companies House: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/HM Land Registry forms: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hm-land-registry-formsHM Land Registry Form UN1: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/unilateral-notice-application-to-enter-un1HM Land Registry Form RX1: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hm-land-registry-formsChange your name by deed poll: https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-pollEnrol a deed poll with the courts: https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-poll/enrol-a-deed-poll-with-the-courtsHM Passport Office name-change guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/change-of-name-passport-applications-caseworker-guidanceNHS: https://www.nhs.uk/DVLA vehicle registration certificate (V62 / V5C): https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/application-for-a-vehicle-registration-certificateCompare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/Anglian Water: https://www.anglianwater.co.uk/E.ON Next: https://www.eonnext.com/ScottishPower: https://www.scottishpower.com/TransUnion UK: https://www.transunion.co.uk/Equifax UK: https://www.equifax.co.uk/Experian UK: https://www.experian.co.uk/GOV.UK bailiff guidance: https://www.gov.uk/your-rights-bailiffsRumble: https://rumble.com/Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung UK tablets: https://www.samsung.com/uk/tablets/Apple iPad (UK): https://www.apple.com/uk/ipad/CeX UK support: https://uk.support.webuy.com/support/solutionsCash Converters UK: https://www.cashconverters.co.uk/Revolut UK: https://www.revolut.com/Chris Coverdale / Peace Strike: https://peacestrike.org/about-2/Bitcoin: https://bitcoin.org/en/The Art of War by Sun Tzu: https://tuttlepublishing.com/china/the-art-of-war

    Common Man Airwaves: Democracy, Jury Power and the Case for Self-Governance

    In this episode, Sukh and I opened with a quick recap of last week’s disrupted conversation before getting into episode four of the series on trial by jury. We revisited the role of jurors, conscience and bodily autonomy, then moved into a wider discussion about democracy, self-governance and what Sukh described as the spiritual expression of anarchy: a flat structure in which people organise, participate and hold authority to account directly. We also touched on how these ideas connect to community responsibility, the limits of hierarchy, and the importance of leaving future generations practical tools rather than simply temporary fixes.We also explored the value of local organisation, from community assemblies to rapid mutual support, and looked at why groups working towards autonomy should be building alongside one another rather than competing. Along the way, we mentioned thinkers, campaigns and organisations that have influenced the discussion, from Larken Rose and Lysander Spooner to CABBI, TECA, The Sovereign Project and The People’s Lawyer. We rounded off by looking ahead to future conversations on trusts, home education, Freemasonry and the next episode’s focus on Princess Diana.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Medicine Festival: https://medicinefestival.com/The Pirbright Institute: https://www.pirbright.ac.uk/US10130701B2 - Coronavirus (Google Patents): https://patents.google.com/patent/US10130701B2/enLarken Rose / The Rose Channel: https://therosechannel.com/Lysander Spooner Works: https://www.lysanderspooner.org/worksCommunity Assembly of the British Isles (CABI): https://ca-britishisles.com/The English Counties Assembly (TECA): https://www.teca.live/The People’s Lawyer - David Adelman: https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/about/david-adelman/The Sovereign Project: https://www.thesovereignproject.live/Willoughby Data Busters: https://www.willoughbydatabusters.uk/Willoughby GDPR Institute: https://www.willoughby-gdpr.institute/United Grand Lodge of England: https://www.ugle.org.uk/Southgate Masonic Centre: https://www.southgatemasoniccentre.co.uk/

    Willoughby Surgery: Limited or Unlimited? My Foundation Course Guide to Protecting Yourself

    Tonight I gave a fuller walkthrough of the Foundation Course and why I believe it gives people practical building blocks for taking more control of their affairs. I talked through the thinking behind setting up a limited company rather than an unlimited one, why I see that distinction as important for protecting property and assets, and how company structure, trademarks, enrolled deed poll changes, and paperwork around homes and vehicles fit into the wider process I teach. I also explained why I think listeners should research both the legal and lawful approaches for themselves, take what is useful, and build knowledge layer by layer rather than blindly copying anyone else’s method.I also shared updates from the Willoughby community, including our push towards 1,000 Discord members, the upcoming Wednesday Zoom sessions, and the new Sunday role-play session designed to help people practise dealing with bailiffs more confidently. We touched on the new Challenger tool, the value of keeping a strong evidence trail, and some recent success stories from members using Willoughby Genius and related tools to feel more prepared in court and in day-to-day disputes. As always, the message was to get informed, ask questions, and help the next person along once you’ve learned something yourself.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Discord: https://willoughbydiscord.uk/Willoughby Zoom: https://www.willoughbyzoom.uk/Willoughby Rumble: https://www.willoughbyrumble.uk/Willoughby Role Play: https://www.willoughbyroleplay.uk/Willoughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/Willoughby Challenger: https://www.willoughbychallenger.uk/Willoughby Data Busters: https://www.willoughbydatabusters.uk/Compare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/Companies House: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/companies-houseEnrol a deed poll with the courts (GOV.UK): https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-poll/enrol-a-deed-poll-with-the-courtsHM Land Registry: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registryHM Land Registry forms (including RX1): https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hm-land-registry-formsDVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency): https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/driver-and-vehicle-licensing-agency/aboutHM Revenue & Customs: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-revenue-customsFinancial Conduct Authority: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/financial-conduct-authorityRevolut: https://www.revolut.com/NHS: https://www.nhs.uk/

    Common Man Airwaves: Trial by Jury, Courts of Conscience and the Power of the Juror

    In this episode of *Trial by Jury*, I sat down with Sukh to unpack what he sees as the three pillars of governance — the legislature, the judiciary and the executive — and why he believes an independent judiciary, rooted in jurors acting from conscience, is essential if people are to defend their autonomy over mind, body and property. We explored what a juror’s role should be, why he argues that a jury must be free to weigh evidence and conscience without interference, and why he rejects the idea of a grand jury as an unnecessary delay in delivering justice. We also touched on how local communities could begin organising, learning the process, and preparing to act at a village or town level before attempting anything national.We then brought the conversation into the present day, looking at examples of grassroots action, local support networks and the growing appetite for communities to stand together when they feel their rights are being eroded. Even after Sukh dropped out of the live link, I carried on reflecting on why trial by jury has returned to the forefront for so many people: as a way of questioning imposed rules, rebuilding local confidence, and encouraging ordinary men and women to become better informed, more involved, and more willing to take responsibility for the future they want to leave to their children and grandchildren.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Rapid Response Support Network: https://rapidresponse.support/Telegram: https://telegram.org/Zoom: https://zoom.us/The People’s Lawyer (David Adelman): https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/Truth University: https://www.truthuniversity.co.uk/Lloyd’s of London: https://www.lloyds.com/Magna Carta – The National Archives: https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/explore-the-collection/explore-by-time-period/medieval/magna-carta/12 Angry Men (official trailer): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEN-2uTi2c0

    Willoughby Surgery: Companies, Trademarks and Enrolled Deed Polls

    In this week’s Willoughby Surgery, I opened with a recap of the first stages of the foundation course, focusing on setting up a limited company, registering a trade mark, and using an enrolled deed poll as part of the wider framework I’ve been teaching. I walked listeners through how I believe company structures, trademarks and court procedure interact, why I see class 35 trade mark registration as important, and how an enrolled deed poll can be used to establish a separate lawful identity and update records such as property deeds. I also moved into the fourth step of the course, discussing vehicle paperwork, the distinction between keeper and owner, and how I approach registration, insurance and notices connected to motoring issues.We then moved into a lively Q&A covering whether these approaches can be used in court, how tax is handled for employed versus self-employed people, what changes in Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, and what practical risks people face around uninsured vehicles, e-scooters and e-bikes. I closed by flagging upcoming episodes of Common Man Airwaves with Sukh Singh on trial by jury, pointing listeners towards Food For Thought Radio, the Discord group, the Rumble channel and the live Zoom sessions for further discussion and follow-up material.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Charles Fernandez host page: https://www.fftradio.com/djs/charles-fernandez/Willoughby Trinity: https://www.willoughbytrinity.com/Willoughby Surgery: https://willoughbysurgery.uk/Willoughby Discord: https://willoughbydiscord.uk/Willoughby Rumble: https://www.willoughbyrumble.uk/Companies House: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/companies-house/aboutFind and update company information: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/Register a company: https://www.gov.uk/register-a-company-onlineRegister a trade mark: https://www.gov.uk/how-to-register-a-trade-markTrade mark classification guide: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/trade-marks-manual/the-classification-guideChange your name by deed poll: https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-poll/how-change-nameEnrol a deed poll with the courts: https://www.gov.uk/change-name-deed-poll/enrol-a-deed-poll-with-the-courtsForm LOC020: Enrol a deed poll with the court to change your name: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/enrol-a-deed-poll-with-the-court-to-change-your-name-form-loc020The National Archives guide to changes of name: https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/changes-of-name/HM Land Registry: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/aboutGet information about property and land: https://www.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land/search-the-registerDVLA vehicle registration guidance: https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-registration/new-and-used-vehiclesV5C and proof of ownership guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/the-re-designed-vehicle-registration-certificate-and-buyer-beware-consumer-protection-initiativeCompare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/HM Revenue & Customs: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-revenue-customs/aboutRoad Traffic Act 1988: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/52/contentsNHS England: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/nhs-england/about

    Common Man Airwaves: Are the People the Highest Court in the Land?

    In this second instalment of our Trial by Jury series, Sukh and I dig into jury nullification and the claim that ordinary people are meant to be the final arbiters of law. We explore the difference between suffrage and democracy, the idea of courts of conscience, and why trial by jury is presented here not as a procedural detail but as the practical mechanism by which people can defend autonomy over mind, body and property. Along the way, we touch on Magna Carta, constitutional principles, and the argument that real justice should be rooted in conscience rather than blind obedience to legislation.We also work through the lockdown-era pub example to test these ideas in practice: if government measures interfere with a person’s ability to trade, earn a living and make informed choices, what remedy should exist in real time? Sukh argues that jury nullification is that remedy, and we discuss how this connects to modern courts, administrative overreach, old legal texts, and the wider question of where sovereignty truly sits. The episode closes by setting up the next conversation: what a juror’s role really is, and how courts of conscience might be understood in today’s world.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Democracy Defined Campaign: https://democracydefined.org/Democracy Defined: The Manifesto (Kenn d'Oudney): https://democracydefined.org/Magna Carta (UK Parliament): https://www.parliament.uk/magnacarta/Halsbury's Laws of England: https://www.lexisnexis.co.uk/legal/commentary/halsburys-laws-of-englandBlack's Law Dictionary: https://legal.thomsonreuters.com/en/products/law-books/blacks-law-dictionaryThe Sovereign Project: https://www.thesovereignproject.live/William Keyte / Common Law Constitution: https://www.commonlawconstitution.org/Freemasonry (United Grand Lodge of England): https://www.ugle.org.uk/discover-freemasonry/what-is-freemasonryHoly Royal Arch (United Grand Lodge of England): https://www.ugle.org.uk/discover-freemasonry/blog/supreme-grand-chapter-completing-journeyKnights Templar (Mark Masons' Hall): https://markmasonshall.org/orders/ktRumble: https://rumble.com/Julian Assange / WikiLeaks: https://wikileaks.org/Julian-Assange-Statement-on-the.htmlUSA PATRIOT Act (U.S. Department of Justice): https://www.justice.gov/ola/usa-patriot-act

    Willoughby Surgery: Foundation Course Q&A, Debt Challenges and Utility Disputes

    This week on the Willoughby Surgery, I walked listeners through the opening stages of our Foundation Course and explained why I believe they matter. I focused first on "claiming your name" by setting up a limited company, then on registering a trademark, sharing how these steps fit into the wider structure I teach around personal protection, jurisdiction, and dealing with official systems. I also explained how the Foundation Course is designed as a sequence of steps, and why I want members to understand not just what to do, but the reasoning behind each part.In the second half, we opened the floor to live questions from the Zoom room and covered a wide range of practical concerns, including speeding tickets, dormant companies, car ownership and keeper arrangements, TV Licensing doorstep visits, utility disputes, pay-as-you-go meter threats, debt collection, DSARs, GDPR-based challenges, and how the Challenger and Data Busters training fit into all of this. It was a lively session with plenty of real-world examples, and a useful introduction for newer members trying to understand both the Foundation Course and the wider Willoughby ecosystem.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Surgery: https://willoughbysurgery.uk/Charles-edward Fernandez / Willoughby Trinity: https://www.willoughbytrinity.com/Community Assembly of the British Isles (CABI): https://www.ca-britishisles.com/Community Assemblies page (John Gilbert / CABI context): https://www.ca-britishisles.com/community-assembliesCrystal Water Experience (Dr Jo Whitaker): https://crystalwaterexperience.com/about-us/Crystal Water: https://www.crystal-water.com/Weekend Truth Festival: https://weekendtruthfestival.co.uk/Companies House: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/Apply to register a UK trade mark: https://www.gov.uk/how-to-register-a-trade-mark/start-your-applicationCompare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/inside-ctm/who-we-are/about-us/Ring Video Doorbells: https://ring.com/gb/en/support/products/doorbellsDiscord: https://discord.com/Zoom: https://zoom.us/Information Commissioner's Office (ICO): https://ico.org.uk/Financial Conduct Authority (FCA): https://www.fca.org.uk/Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA): https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/driver-and-vehicle-licensing-agency/aboutLowell: https://www.lowell.co.uk/Link Financial Outsourcing: https://linkfinancial.eu/Lantern Debt Recovery Services: https://lanternuk.com/Marston Holdings: https://marstonholdings.uk/Marston Financial Services Limited: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/03005457Amigo Loans: https://www.amigoloans.co.uk/mobile-appToyota UK Magazine: https://mag.toyota.co.uk/Road Traffic Act 1988 (PDF): https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/52/pdfs/ukpga_19880052_en.pdfTribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007: https://www.legislation.uk/tribunals-courts-and-enforcement-act-2007Gas Act 1986 (PDF): https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1986/44/pdfs/ukpga_19860044_en.pdfElectricity Act 1989 (PDF): https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1989/29/pdfs/ukpga_19890029_en.pdf?view=extent&wrap=true

    Common Man Airwaves: Trial by Jury in Plain English

    In this first instalment of our six-part series on trial by jury, I sat down with Sukh to begin unpacking the subject in plain English. We explored the idea of trial by jury in its ‘natural law’ form, the distinction Sukh draws between what is lawful and what is merely legal, and why he believes ordinary people need a clearer grasp of how conscience, autonomy and accountability are meant to sit at the heart of justice. We also looked at the three areas Sukh says every person must retain autonomy over — mind, body and property — and how intent and consent shape questions of right and wrong.Suk also set out the wider roadmap for the series, including jury nullification, the role of jurors in governance, common misunderstandings around Magna Carta, and practical action listeners can take. Along the way, we touched on COVID-era restrictions as a modern example of the tension between individual autonomy and state power, and why Suk sees trial by jury as a safeguard against unjust legislation. Next time, we’ll move from the ‘why’ into more of the ‘how’, with a closer look at jury nullification and the Coronavirus Act.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Magna Carta (British Library manuscript record): https://searcharchives.bl.uk/catalog/040-001102110Sovereign Trust: https://sovereigntrust.net/Democracy Defined: https://democracydefined.org/Lysander Spooner Biography: https://www.lysanderspooner.org/biopgraphyJudge Napolitano – Judging Freedom: https://judgenap.com/Calvin Perrins (Substack): https://calvinperrins.substack.com/p/karmic-retributionThe Bowler Hat Farmer: https://thebowlerhatfarmer.com/The People’s Lawyer newsletter (David Adelman): https://independentviewpoints.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/The-Peoples-Lawyer-Newsletter.pdf

    Willoughby Surgery: Speeding Tickets, DSARs and Debt Challenges

    In this week’s Willoughby Surgery, I took live questions from listeners on how to use Willoughby Genius and the wider Willoughby toolset more effectively. We covered practical issues including whether the platform can be used internationally and in multiple languages, how to upload and challenge a speeding notice, and how the training inside the Discord community is intended to help people deal with parking tickets, congestion charges and other paperwork. I also explained how the different products fit together, from Willoughby Genius to Pix Busters, Data Busters and Challenger, and how DSARs, reminders and escalation steps are meant to work when listeners are trying to force responses from companies and public bodies.I also answered questions on ongoing disputes with energy and water companies, debt collection, vehicle paperwork, ID verification, and the relationship between the training courses and the software. We talked through examples involving Affinity Water, DVLA requests, Money Claim Online, and the practical differences between keeper and owner arrangements for vehicles. I finished by sharing an update on the all-in-one platform build and previewing the upcoming Tuesday series, where I’ll be joined by Suk Singh to break down trial by jury and other complex areas of law into plain English.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Willoughby Radio: https://www.willoughbyradio.uk/Willoughby Genius: https://www.willoughbygenius.com/Willoughby Data Busters: https://www.willoughbydatabusters.uk/Willoughby Pix Busters: https://www.willoughbypixbusters.uk/Willoughby Challenger: https://www.willoughbychallenger.uk/Willoughby GDPR Institute: https://www.willoughby-gdpr.institute/Charles-edward Fernandez / Willoughby Trinity: https://www.willoughbytrinity.com/Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA): https://www.gov.uk/dvlaInformation Commissioner's Office (ICO): https://ico.org.uk/Companies House: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/companies-houseFinancial Conduct Authority (FCA): https://www.fca.org.uk/Money Claim Online (MCOL): https://www.moneyclaim.gov.uk/web/mcol/welcomeNational Grid UK: https://www.nationalgrid.co.uk/OVO Energy: https://www.ovoenergy.com/British Gas: https://www.britishgas.co.uk/E.ON Next: https://www.eonnext.com/Affinity Water: https://www.affinitywater.co.uk/Compare the Market: https://www.comparethemarket.com/Toyota UK: https://www.toyota.co.uk/Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Revolut: https://www.revolut.com/Nationwide: https://www.nationwide.co.uk/NatWest: https://www.natwest.com/thinkmoney: https://www.thinkmoney.co.uk/
