Hi, I've already been in contact with the Complaints Manager at the IPCC, but this hasn't resovled the problems. I suspect could be some corruption involved there, because something is obviouslly wrong there in my opinion. Also I wondering a bit on how to escalate the case I've been in contact with the FBI, or the American Embassy, about. Also, I've been in contact with the Norwegian equivalent, of the IPCC, that's Spesialenheten, regarding another, but linked, matter. And they sort under the Norwegian Ministry of Justice. So, I think that the IPCC are sorting under the British Ministy of Justice(?) If not, who should they then be sorting under? Sorry if I'm asking stupid questions. Yours sincerely, Erik Ribsskog On 6/23/08, Holmes, Ryan <Ryan.Holmes@justice.gsi.gov.uk> wrote: Dear Mr Ribsskog Thank you for your email reply of 19 June. The Ministry of Justice is unable to submit a complaint on your behalf to the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC). Additionally, a complaint against the IPCC cannot be directed to the Ministry of Justice for review as this does not fall within the remit of this Department. If you wish to make a complaint against the IPCC you must do this by addressing your concerns to the IPCC directly. The information provided below outlines how to do this. If you have a complaint or query about a casework decision, the IPCC will do their best to clearly explain the reason for their decisions and answer any concerns you have. Please note however that IPCC casework decisions are final and they will not necessarily be able to change the outcome. For further information or advice on your rights you can contact a Citizens Advice Bureau, solicitor or your local MP. If you have a complaint about a member of staff at the IPCC, in the first instance you can contact the person concerned and the matter may be resolved there and then. As mentioned in my previous email, Casework Manager Sarah Brown is one of a number of IPCC staff that has conducted an investigation into your file and she can be contacted on 0207 166 3934 should you wish to discuss the details of your complaint further. However, since you mention that Miss Brown has not contacted you in the past, you may wish to raise any issues of concern through a line manager, or write to the Internal Complaints Manager. Alternatively, you can download a complaint form via the link http://www.ipcc.gov.uk/index/contact-us/complaints_ipcc.htm and make your complaint against the IPCC using the contact details below. Internal Complaints Manager Independent Police Complaints Commission 90 High Holborn London WC1V 6BH Fax: 0207 404 0695 Email: internal.complaints.unit@ipcc.gsi.gov.uk.

I wanted to complain about the IPCC, since the whole case is a mess, and they don't reply to my e-mails, and they don't call me, you mention Brown, she has been supposed to call me, regarding the problems with the missing answers on the e-mails, but she haven't called. I think that the IPCC must have some serious problems, with handeling the complaints I sent them, which I view as one case really. So I was wondering, how I could submit this complaint, on the IPCC, to the Ministry of Justice. If you think that you could please submit this complaint for me. Also, I've contacted the FBI, in the American Embassy, in London. And I asked them, on how should go forward, regarding reporting a crime in the US, that someone, has set up a hate-blog against me there. The FBI/The American Embassy Legal Advice, tells me to contact my local police-station, about this. But I've lost a bit of confidence, with the Merseyside Police, due to the things mentioned in the complaints, sent to the IPCC, and more. And then I thought, that I could contact the IPCC about this then, since I didn't think I could contact the local Police about this. But now there has been so much problems, with the IPCC, so that I've lost a bit of confidence, in the IPCC, as well. So then I have to contact the Ministry of Justice about this, since I don't think that eighter the Merseyside Police or the IPCC, have showed themselves, to be worthy, of much confidence, unfortunatly. So I'm mentioning this now. Hope this is alright!

To assist you with your concerns, I shall set out the avenues of legal assistance available to you that acknowledge your specific financial concerns. Firstly, while I understand you have already been in contact with the Citizen's Advice Bureau (CAB), you may also wish to consider contacting your local Law Centre. Contact details for your local Law Centre can be found via the Law Centres Federation on 0207 428 4401, or by accessing their website www.lawcentres.org.uk. You may also find it helpful to access the Community Legal Services Direct website for information on providers of legal advice at www.clsdirect.org.uk. Alternatively, you may choose to contact Community Legal Advice for free confidential help regarding your legal queries on 0845 345 4345. Secondly, it may be worth investigating the possibility of a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA). This allows a solicitor to accept a case on a 'no won, no fee' basis, under which they receive a fee from you only if the case is won. It is worth pointing that the solicitor's standard fees can be increased by up to 100% to reflect the degree of risk to the solicitor in taking the case on (the 'success fee'). However, should you lose your case, you may still be liable to pay the successful party's costs, as well as expert witness fees and other disbursements. There are insurance schemes that, for a premium, provide cover for these items. As part of the implementation of the Access to Justice Act 1999, we have made it possible for the successful side to recover their lawyer's success fee and insurance premium form the loser. Effectively, this has made the operation of conditional fees fairer and more attractive to clients. Thirdly, some solicitors may be prepared to take on your case on a pro bono agreement (i.e. provide you with a free service). You can contact the Law Society who can provide you with a list of solicitors that may provide pro bono services. The Law Society is the regulatory body for solicitors in England and Wales and you can write to them at the following address: The Law Society 113 Chancery Lane London WC2A 1SX Tel: 0870 606 2555.

Thanks in advance for the reply!   Yours sincerely, Erik Ribsskog   On 4/25/08, Holmes, Ryan <Ryan.Holmes@justice.gsi.gov.uk> wrote: Dear Mr Ribsskog Thank you for your email reply of 7 April, in which you request further advice on ways to proceed forward with your complaint against the Legal Services Ombudsman (LSO).  To assist you with your concerns, I shall set out the avenues of legal assistance available to you that acknowledge your specific financial concerns. Firstly, while I understand you have already been in contact with the Citizen's Advice Bureau (CAB), you may also wish to consider contacting your local Law Centre.  Contact details for your local Law Centre can be found via the Law Centres Federation on 0207 428 4401, or by accessing their website www.lawcentres.org.uk. You may also find it helpful to access the Community Legal Services Direct website for information on providers of legal advice at www.clsdirect.org.uk.  Alternatively, you may choose to contact Community Legal Advice for free confidential help regarding your legal queries on 0845 345 4345. Secondly, it may be worth investigating the possibility of a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA).  This allows a solicitor to accept a case on a 'no won, no fee' basis, under which they receive a fee from you only if the case is won.  It is worth pointing that the solicitor's standard fees can be increased by up to 100% to reflect the degree of risk to the solicitor in taking the case on (the 'success fee').  However, should you lose your case, you may still be liable to pay the successful party's costs, as well as expert witness fees and other disbursements.  There are insurance schemes that, for a premium, provide cover for these items.  As part of the implementation of the Access to Justice Act 1999, we have made it possible for the successful side to recover their lawyer's success fee and insurance premium form the loser. Effectively, this has made the operation of conditional fees fairer and more attractive to clients. Thirdly, some solicitors may be prepared to take on your case on a pro bono agreement (i.e. provide you with a free service).  You can contact the Law Society who can provide you with a list of solicitors that may provide pro bono services.  The Law Society is the regulatory body for solicitors in England and Wales and you can write to them at the following address: The Law Society 113 Chancery Lane London WC2A 1SX Tel: 0870 606 2555.

Problemer med maktmisbruk/korrupsjon fra myndighetene i Norge og Storbritannia.

Fagerli Marianne <marianne.fagerli@stortinget.no>	Tue, Apr 29, 2008 at 12:59 PM
To: Erik Ribsskog <eribsskog@gmail.com>
Tusen takk for dine tilbakemeldinger. Jeg skal bringe denne videre til Erna Solberg. Med vennlig hilsen Marianne Fagerli førstekonsulent Høyres stortingsgruppe tlf: 23 31 33 46 mobil: 416 46 094 -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: Erik Ribsskog [mailto:eribsskog@gmail.com] Sendt: 25. april 2008 20:33 Til: erna.solberg@hoyre.no Emne: Problemer med maktmisbruk/korrupsjon fra myndighetene i Norge og Storbritannia. Hei Erna Solberg, sorry at jeg driver å skrive til deg, sånn helt uten videre. Men jeg ble så imponert, over det prinsipprogrammet, som du presanterte på Høyre-møte, tidligere denne uke, om at dere ønsker å fordele makten i samfunnet, og at dere ikke ønsker, at det skal gå politikk i enkeltavgjørelse, om enkeltmenneskers skjebner osv. Det er i hvertfall sånn jeg skjønte det. Og det synes jeg virker som en veldig god ide, siden det virker litt for meg, som at det er en ny elite, som, mer eller mindre, styrer og 'herjer' som de vil i landet nå, uten noe tanke i det hele tatt, for medborgernes universale menneskerettigheter, og sivile rettigheter. Jeg blir i hvertfall tullet med, av alt som heter myndigheter i landet, det vil si Kripos, Politidirektoratet, Justisdepartementet, Ambassaden i London, Konsulatet i Liverpool (hvor jeg bor), UD; SMK, Sivilombudsmannen, Fylkesmannen i Oslo og Akershus, Spesialenheten, og også uavhengige organisasjoner, som Amnesty Norge, og Norsk Røde Kors og Statsministerens Kontor. Pluss da i tillegg, organisasjoner i Storbritannia, som det Britiske Politiet, IPCC, Liverpool City Council, the Local Government Ombudsman, the Financial Ombudsman, the Citizens Advice Bureau, the Law Society, the Legal Services Ombudsman, the Legal Services Commission, the Ministry of Justice, Amnesty UK. Listen går bare videre og videre, det virker som at det er noe lignende, av det som er beskrevet i den boken, som heter 'Mafiaen i Eiker', hvor en enkeltperson, blir systematisk motarbeidet, av offentlige myndigheter, til de klarer å knuse han. Det virker ikke, som at det, nå for tiden, er noe som helst tanke for, hva som er rett og galt, og hva som er folks rettigheter. Jeg har ikke klart å finne noen, ikke en eneste organisasjon, som bryr seg en døyt, om hva som er rett og galt, og hva som er folks sivile rettigheter, og folks menneskerettigheter. Så jeg synes det var veldig bra å høre om det programmet dere har lagt fram nå i Høyre, hvor dere ønsker å motarbeide nettopp slik behandling av enkeltpersoner, fra myndighetene. For dette synes jeg ikke, sånn som jeg ser det, at er verdig for et demokratisk samfunn. Og det viker som at det er like ille, her i Storbritannia, hvor jeg måtte flykte til, ettersom, at jeg ble jaget fra gården til onkelen min, i Kvelde i Larvik, på 35 års dagen min, i july 2005. Av folk som hadde våpen og hunder, så det kan virke som at det var noe politi, eller noe, for meg. Og jeg overhørte, at de sa de ønsket å skyte meg, så det var bare flaks at jeg kom meg unna. Så hva det er som foregår, det vet ikke jeg. Jeg får ikke noe hjelp, fra noen som helst myndigheter, eller private/uavhengige organisasjoner. Så sånn som jeg ser det, så har verden gått helt av hengslene. Jeg prøver å skrive, om det skjer, på en blogg jeg har, med håp, om at noen kanskje skal reflektere, eller reagere, over det som foregår. Pressen har jeg kontaktet flere ganger, de er ikke interessert i å hjelpe meg. Så at pressen, er involvert, i noe samrøre, med offentlig forvaltning, og også til og med frivillige/private organisasjoner, i både Norge og Storbritannia. Det er i hvertfall sånn jeg ser det, at dette er realiteten, i dag, i min situasjon, jeg klarer ikke få noe som helst hjelp/råd/informasjon, om hva det egentlig er som foregår. Jeg har kontaktet politet i Norge og Storbritannia, veldig mange ganger, men de vil ikke fortelle hva som foregår, så jeg tror nok at du har rett i det du la fram, i det prinsipprogrammet, at myndighetene, nå for tiden, ikke bryr seg noe om folks rettigheter, men at de lar politikken sin, gå foran folks rettigheter. Og dette er jeg enig, som i det det stod i en nettavis, at du sa, at folks universale rettigheter blir ignorert. Så da kan jeg gi den tilbakemeldingen, at sånn som jeg ser det, så har du og Høyre helt skjønt hva som foregår. Så da må jeg innrømme, at jeg ble imponert, når jeg leste det prinsipprogrammet til Høyre, i en nettavis her, tidligere denne uken. Så det synes jeg var veldig bra! Jeg var faktisk selv, på et eller to møter, i Høires Hus, skrives det vel, i Oslo, på begynnelsen av 90-tallet. Det var vel, i forbindelse med Unge Høyres program, til skolevalgene osv., i forkant, av kommunevalget, i 91. Og da, pratet jeg og en kamerat, i hvertfall tidligere kamerat, Magne Winnem, med noen av Unge Høyres, politiske strateger, eller i hvertfall, de som skulle utarbeide valgkampmateriale til Unge Høyre da. Så fikk vi si vår mening om det, vi var jo fra Røyken og Svelvik vi, så hadde vel kanskje et litt annet perspektiv, enn de fleste som var på møtet i Høires Hus der, tror jeg, for dem var nok mest fra Oslo Vest osv., så da kanksje vi la merke til ting, som vi trodde ville gi et dårlig inntrykk, i f.eks. i Buskerud, eller Vestfold da. Men jeg får håpe at vi ikke fikk dem til å moderere programmet for mye. Jeg husker ikke navna på de her nå. Den eneste jeg husker navnet på, det var at den var en jentene der, som het Huitfeldt vel, og det var ikke Anniken Huitfeldt, men ei som var datter av en Høyre politiker, eller noe tror jeg. Det var kameraten min, Winnem, som kjente til dette. Men samme det. Så jeg må innrømme det, at jeg ble veldig imponert, over det prinsipprogrammet, som Høyre la frem, her nå nettopp. Jeg hadde ikke tid, til å drive med politikk, på begynnelsen av 90-tallet, og jeg synes egentlig ikke, at det var rett av meg, som bare hadde sittet på skolebenken hele livet, til da, å bli aktiv i Unge Høyre osv., og diskutere, og si at dette er best, osv., når jeg ikke hadde noe erfaring fra annet enn skolebenken selv. Jeg synes det ble litt dumt, og visste ikke om jeg da egentlig visste noe særlig, om de temaene, som ble diskutert, på møtet der osv. Det var vel mest at jeg gjentok det, som lærerne hadde sagt på skolen, at Norge burde satse på kunnskap, og forskning. Men jeg hadde jo ikke helt oversikten selv, jeg mener det jeg synes ikke det var noe hensikt, for meg, som ikke kjente så mye til verden, å drive for mye med politikk, ettersom, at jeg jo ikke egentlig hadde noe særlig livserfaring, og da ville det vel antagelig ikke vært så hensiktsmessig, at jeg skulle prøve, å finne løsninger på alt mulig forskjellige, når jeg ikke selv syntes, at jeg visste så særlig mye om hvordan verden var. Så derfor, så ble det ikke til, at jeg gikk noe mer på møter på Høires Hus osv. Men, i de siste årene, så har jeg jo skjønt det, at det er noe, som ikke er som det burde være, i det hele tatt, i Norge. (Og nok også andre land). Så nå skjønner jeg jo det, at det er faktisk er veldige viktige temaer, dette med maktfordeliing, og det som kan synes, å være samarbeid, mellom forskjellige offentlige etater etc., for å motarbeide enkeltpersoner. Det virker som at det en mafia i offentlig adminstrasjon. Og jeg har skrevet før, at det kan virke som at det er noe i forbindelse med noe New World Order agenda. At man skal ha en underklasse, som blir styrt og kontrollert helt, av den nye overklassen/den nye eliten. Og middelklassen, den forsvinner, så det blir bare eliten, og undersåttene igjen, så og si, kan det virke som, for meg. I hverfall så synes jeg det jeg har opplevd de siste årene, passer godt med det jeg har hørt om, angående de her New World Order-teoriene da. Men jeg vet ikke helt, jeg lurer litt på, om kanskje det hadde vært smart for meg, å for eksempel begynne med politikk? For eksempel, disse statelige og offentlige myndigheter, inkludert politiet, virker det som, de er jo i hælene mine hele tida, så det er ikke fred å få, må man vel si. Og det virker som at det er 'Street Theater' og 'Group Stalking' operasjoner, som iverksettes rundt meg, av noe overvåkningspoliti, eller hva det kan være. Enda jeg har aldri vært noe kriminell, og jeg har jobbet og betalt skatt hele livet. Det virker som at disse operasjonene, som er på nettet, hvis jeg diskuterer, f.eks. på Veggavisen, eller en Facebook diskusjonsgruppe, så dukker det opp en organsiert gjeng, som mobber og trakasserer meg systematisk og planlagt. Og dette har også skjedd når jeg går ut døra. At det virker som at politiet, eller noen andre, har en slags overvåkningaksjon, for å få brutt meg ned, virker det som. Dette går på ting som 'Mind Control', virker det som for meg. Og dette er ting, som går på, at de bryter ned folk, så de blir traumatiske, osv., og så, så får de kontroll på personene, og personene gjøre det, som dette nettverket vil. Det er i hvertfall sånn det virker for meg, jeg har lest om det på nettet, og jeg kjenner igjen det som står beskrevet der. Jeg skal legge ved noen linker, til blogg osv., som forklarer mer om det jeg mener. Nå bor jo jeg i Storbritannia da, så jeg vet ikke om Høyre har noe regler, for at man må bo i Norge, hvis man har lyst til drive med politikk osv., men det går vel mye på møter osv., så da er det vel antagelig en fordel å bo i Norge ja. Men jeg, er som jeg sier, nå i det siste, etter at jeg har fått tenkt gjennom dette. Jeg er en flyktning fra Norge jeg nå. Jeg ble jagd bort fra gården til onkelen min, i Kvelde i Larvik, sommeren 2005, av noen folk med våpen og hunder, som jeg ikke vet hvem er, eller hvorfor de skulle ha tak i meg, og skyte meg, som jeg overhørte de sa, når jeg var inni skogen ved gården der. Så jeg har tatt kontakt med FN's høykommisær for flyktninger, avdeling Storbritannia, for å få råd om hva jeg burde gjøre i forbindelse med dette. De sa bare, at de kunne ikke involvere seg i enkeltsaker, og ga meg to telefonnumre, til et par advokatfirmaer, tror jeg det var, som jeg ikke har kontaket enda, for jeg lurer på om dette ikke er mer generelle tema, som kanskje burde vært tatt opp med f.eks. FN da Jeg vil jo gjerne vite, f.eks., om jeg formelt oppfyller kravene, til å være en flyktning, for da ville kanskje dette hjelpe, til å få politiet i Norge, til å gi meg råd, informasjon, eller hjelp i forbindelse med den situasjonen, som er, at jeg blir forfulgt av noe slags kriminelt nettverk da, virker det som. Hvis det ikke er politiet da, som en jeg pratet med på nettet, mente det kunne være. For dette har holdt på, siden 2003, og det er helt umulig å få et eneste råd., eller ord omtrent, ut av politiet, så hva det er som foregår, det er vanskelig å si, men at noe er galt, det er nok sikkert. Jeg vet ikke helt hvorfor, at jeg bestemte meg for å skrive den her e-posten, men mye av grunnen, var vel, at jeg synes det prinsipprogrammet som dere presanterte, i avisene, tidligere denne uken, var veldig bra, så det virker i hvertfall som at det er noen oppegående folk igjen i landet, synes jeg, og det er ikke så mange andre jeg kan si det om, i forbindelse med de tingene som foregår nå, synes jeg det virker som. Så det synes jeg var veldig positivt, og jeg tror Høyres politikk, med konservatisme, osv., ikke vil være på langt nær så ille, som AP's New World Order politikk, vil jeg kalle det, med en ny elite, som får i pose og sekk, og men en underklasse, som må stå i køer, til Aker Sykehus, osv., og dit ville ikke jeg dratt for å operere eller noe igjen, etter at jeg opererte kneet der, i 1996. Der var det mye rart, jeg mistenker at dette nettverket, av offentlig forvaltning, som er beskrevet, i den boken, 'mafiaen i Eiker', jeg mistenker at dette eller lignende netteverk, også har sine representanter, på sykehusene. Uten at jeg skal gå mer i detalj om det nå. Jeg tror, at i et samfunn med Høyres politikk, så vil det være mulig, for enkeltmennesker, å komme seg f.eks. over fra arbeiderklassen, eller hvilket utrykk man skal bruke nå, og oppover, til middelklassen, eller overklassen da, hvis de jobber og står på, uten å bli motarbeidet, av diverse jantelover, som kanskje egentlig er et slags nettverk da, i tillegg til de netteverkene som er i offentlig admistrasjon osv. Men jeg tror ikke, at folk har så særlig muligheter, til å komme seg oppover, i samfunnet, i det samfunnet som vi har nå, med AP's poltitikk, med en overlegen elite, et såkalt plutokrati, som det skrives i avisene hele tiden. Jeg tror i et sånt samfunn, så er det så og si umulig, å komme seg over, fra 'undersåttene', til denne eliten, som styrer, i dette plutokratiet da. Som jeg selv har selv mange referanser til, i aviser osv, at Norge er egentlig et plutokrati. Og da mistenker jeg, at dette er samfunnet, som man får av, AP's politikk, med overformynderi, en ny elite, som kan kjøpe seg forbi køene, på de dårligere og dårligere offentlige sykhusene. Så dette AP/New World Order/den nye eliten samfunnet, det tror jeg man burde gjøre noe med, hvis man har noe som helst sympati, med de mange, altså flertallet som havner i denne, 'undersått' gruppen. Så dette håper jeg at det er mulig å gjøre noe med, dette AP-samfunnet. Er 2/3 samfunnet de kaller det? Betyr dette, at den siste tredelen ikke har noen rettigheter, men får rettighetene sine ignorert, av offentlig forvaltning og non-profit organisasjoner osv. Det er i hvertfall sånn det virker for meg, må jeg innrømme At noen av de her 2/3 av folka i samfunnet da, har bestemt seg for, at jeg er i den siste tredelen, og da ikke har noen rettigheter, og alle kan fritt tulle med meg. Det er i hvertfall sånn det virker for meg. Hvordan dette blir organisert i detalj, det kan jeg ikke si sikkert, men det er vel muligens noe frimurere, eller Illuminati f.eks., inne i bildet da, uten at jeg skal si dette hundre prosent sikkert. Men jeg ønsker i hvertfall lykke til videre med den høyre prisippolitikken, som jeg synes virket veldig bra. Jeg tror, at hvis Høyre, klarer å forklare velgerne, kanskje litt enklere, hva dette vil si, med at det går politikk i enkeltsaker, og at folks universale rettigheter blir ignorert av myndighetene. Kanskje hvis Høyre tok fram noen eksempler, på hva som faktisk foregår, av maktmisbruk og det som værre er, fra myndighetene. For jeg tror ikke det er alle som skjønner det som står i prinsipprogrammet om universale rettigheter, og at avgjørelser i enkeltsaker, tas med en poltisk agenda i bakhodet, og at man overkjører folks sivile rettigheter, og menneskerettigheter Men det er kanskje ting som kommer senere, i valgkampen neste år osv? Men jeg får i hvertfall ønske lykke til med det nye prinsipprogrammet, og si mange takk, for at det i hvertfall er noen oppegående personer tilbake i Norge, for det synes jeg det bli litt mangelvare på nå, hvis jeg skal være ærlig, så det synes jeg var et veldig bra og fornuftig program, å komme med nå, fra Høyre! Så beklager hvis jeg skriver mye her, jeg legger med noen linker, bare i tilfelle, at noen har tid å lese dette. Da håper dette er i orden, og igjen takk for at det dukker opp noen bra nyheter i mediene. Så beklager jeg skrev for mye i denne e-posten, jeg bare fikk en ide, om at kunne jo prøve å sende, en e-post i hvertfall, så da tenkte jeg at jeg kunne jo prøve å gjøre det. Så da får jeg håpe, at det var i orden! Med vennlig hilsen Erik Ribsskog PS.
