Former head of UK drugs regulator faces being struck off medical register after failing to reveal convictions for child sex offences

A former head of the UK drugs regulator has been banned from working as a doctor after failing to reveal his convictions for child sex offences.

Dr Ian Hudson trained as a paediatrician and worked in the pharmaceutical industry before going on to serve as chief executive of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for six years.

But a tribunal this week ruled his fitness to practice is impaired and ordered his erasure from the General Medical Council’s register of doctors, preventing him from practicing in the UK.

The panel heard Hudson was convicted at Chelmsford Magistrate’s Court in 2024 of two counts of attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child.

He was sentenced to a six month custodial sentence suspended for 18 months, forced to sign the sex offenders register for ten years and subjected to a five year sexual harm prevention order.

But the father-of-one failed in his duty to notify the GMC of the charges and convictions ‘without delay’, the Medical Practitioner’s Tribunal Service was told.

The hearing, presided over by three tribunal members, determined his conduct and offending were at the upper end of the scale of seriousness and there was a ‘high risk’ to public safety.

They suspended Hudson from the GMC’s Register with immediate effect and he will be permanently struck off he fails to appeal the outcome within 28 days.

The GMC asked the tribunal to erase Hudson from the its Register, citing the seriousness of his offences and the importance of maintaining public confidence in the medical profession.

Arguing that ‘the Tribunal could not conclude that Hudson’s behaviour’s wouldn’t be repeated and that the level of risk was high with only limited insight and that remediation was limited and incomplete,’ it also asked that an immediate suspension order be imposed during the customary 28 day appeal period.

Hudson, who represented himself at the virtual hearing, insisted ‘he had good insight into his actions and had done as much to remediate as he could think of’.

He said there were ‘elements of his work that required him to be on the medical register despite having no contact with patients’ and asked to remain on it – but with restrictions that prevented him from working with children in a medical capacity.

Given his significant expertise and experience ‘he still had a lot to offer for the benefit of wider society and could do so without risking the public,’ he added.

The GMC said there were no extenuating circumstances for the Tribunal to take into account.

Dr Hudson began his medical career in the 1980s working as a paediatrician.

According to his official Government biography he worked in pharmaceutical research and development team at SmithKleinBeecham for 12 years before his appointment in 2001 as the Head of Licensing at the MHRA’s predecessor the Medicine’s Control Agency.

He served as the MHRA’s Chief Executive from 2013 to 2019.

Following his departure from the MHRA, Hudson was awarded an OBE in the 2020 New Years Honours in recognition of his leadership and work on healthcare regulation and medicines oversight.

Hudson later worked for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation as its Senior Advisor, Regulatory Affairs, Integrated Development, Global Health until 2024.

His appointment by the BMGF immediately following his tenure as MHRA Chief Executive was subject to review by the Office of the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments who imposed two conditions restricting his use of privileged non-public information acquired during his time at the MHRA and prohibiting any direct involvement in lobbying the UK government.

More recently he has worked a director, advisor or consultant for various heath firms.

Kincora: British intelligence-run sex abuse brothel?

Half a century after the public learned that boys at a Belfast group home were sexually assaulted by senior staff, a key question remains unanswered: was British intelligence implicated in the abuse conspiracy, and did Kincora serve as a ‘honeypot’ to entrap and blackmail powerful figures?

A vast trove of declassified files on Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual, political, and intelligence escapades released by the US Department of Justice has once again thrust disgraced former Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor into the spotlight. With British police reportedly reviewing Andrew’s past sexual activities and links to Epstein, questions are growing about whether Britain’s spy agencies were aware of Andrew’s alleged escapades with minors.

If the darkest rumors turn out to be true, it will not be the first time a British royal had been embroiled in a child rape conspiracy with spy agency involvement. Back in 1980, a scandal erupted when the Kincora Boys’ Home in occupied Ireland was exposed as a secret brothel run by powerful pedophiles. Chief among the alleged perpetrators was Lord Mountbatten — Andrew’s great-uncle.

From the very beginning, hints began to appear that MI5/MI6 knew of the child abuse taking place Kincora, and could have even been running the group home as part of a dastardly intelligence plot. With Britain’s domestic and foreign spies engaged in a savage dirty war in Ireland, and both services running operatives in Republican and Unionist paramilitaries, Kincora would have provided an ideal means of recruiting and compromising potential assets. Official investigations have strongly insinuated British intelligence chiefs had a close bond with many individuals who ran the Boys’ Home. 

In May 2025, veteran BBC journalist Chris Moore published a forensic account of the case titled Kincora: Britain’s Shame. Featuring four and a half decades of firsthand research by the author, its groundbreaking contents have been met with general silence by British mainstream media.

In the book, Moore argues persuasively that the Boys’ Home was just one component of a more extensive child abuse network extending across British-occupied Ireland and beyond — in which London’s spying apparatus was not only aware, but likely complicit. 

In 2023, Moore met personally with Kincora victim Arthur Smyth in Australia. Smyth’s stay at the Home was brief, but the horrors he endured there left him scarred forever.

“Having interviewed a number of Kincora survivors, I found Arthur’s story familiar. Sent to the Boys’ Home by a Belfast divorce court judge aged 11, he was continually preyed upon by the pedophiles who ran it, and intimidated into silence,” Moore told The Grayzone. “Arthur was also brutally abused repeatedly by a man he knew only as ‘Dickie’, who raped him while bending him over a desk.”

In August 1979, two years after Smyth escaped Kincora, he learned the true identity of ‘Dickie’ was none other than Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas Mountbatten, a member of the royal family and Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin. Mountbatten had just been murdered in an apparent IRA bombing attack on his fishing boat off the coast of Ireland. Though the British government appears to remain committed to concealing his crimes from the public, Mountbatten’s pedophilia was common knowledge among both British and US intelligence for decades.

As early as World War II, the FBI had identified Mountbatten as “a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.” A Bureau file detailing this was later identified by historian Andrew Lownie. After requesting other files the Bureau maintained on the royal, Lownie was informed by US authorities they had been destroyed.

Lownie says he was told by an FBI official that the files were only disposed of “after [he] asked for them” — indicating they were “clearly” shredded at the request of the British government.

Former US ambassador Peter Mandelson pictured in the Epstein Files standing in his underpants in paedophile financier’s home

An extraordinary photograph emerged of what appears to be Peter Mandelson standing in his underpants in one of the homes of paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

The photograph, which has been released as part of the Epstein files, apparently shows Lord Mandelson, the UK’s former ambassador to the US, talking to a woman who is wearing a white bath robe.

A source close to Lord Mandelson said that the peer had no recollection of the photograph being taken and had no idea where it was taken or who had taken it.

Wearing a dark t-shirt and white Y-fronts, Lord Mandelson – who was fired as UK ambassador US last September when the depth of his links Epstein became public – appears to casually chat to the young woman.

The former Labour Cabinet minister points to a computer tablet inside what appears to be a room inside Epstein’s New York mansion.

New emails released on Friday as part of three million documents related to the child sex offender show Epstein sent £10,000 to Mandelson’s Brazilian husband Reinaldo Avila da Silva to pay for an osteopathy course.

Da Silva emailed Epstein on September 7, 2009 – two months after the paedophile was released from prison after serving 12 months of an 18-month sentence on child sex offences – and asked for money.

At the time, Mandelson was business secretary and in a relationship with Da Silva. The pair married in 2023.

Republican who said trans healthcare ‘harms’ kids gets lengthy sentence for child sex abuse imagery

A former South Carolina Republican lawmaker and member of the ultra-Conservative Freedom Caucus, who supported drag and trans healthcare bans “to protect childhood innocence”, has been handed a nearly two decade prison sentence for distributing vile child sexual abuse material.

Robert John May III, known as ‘RJ’ , 38, had represented the state’s 88th district in the House of Representatives since November 2020 but resigned from his seat in August 2025 after he was arrested and charged two months earlier with 10 counts of distributing sexual abuse material involving children. In September, May subsequently pleaded guilty to the charges.

During his time in office May was outspoken against gender-affirming care, trans inclusion in sports and drag performances, and was listed as a speaker at Mom’s for Liberty’s Reclaiming Education in America event in 2022. Many of his concerns about LGBTQ+ topics were cited in regards to child safety.

On Wednesday (14 January), May was handed a 17.5 year sentence in federal prison by US District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a term that was slightly less than the 20 years prosecutors requested but much longer than the five years the former lawmaker requested for himself.

Currie said May was given a higher sentence than the average for similar charges because the content he disseminated was the “most severe the court had seen”.

Following his release from prison, May will have to spend another 20 years under supervised release, with federal parole officers monitoring his actions to be sure he doesn’t reoffend. He was also ordered to pay $58,500 in restitution to eight victims who the authorities identified and will be required to register as a sex offender for life.

Washington Democrats Sponsor Bill to Slash Penalties for Pedophiles Snared in Online Sting Operations

Four Democratic Washington State Senators are pushing legislation to reduce penalties for individuals busted during sting operations for attempting to sexually abuse children.

The bill, Senate Bill 5312, sponsored by Sens. Lisa Wellman, Noel Frame, T’wina Nobles, and Claire Wilson, aims to shorten sex offender registration and post-release supervision for first-time offenders involved in stings where law enforcement poses as fictitious minors.

The proposal comes on the heels of a November vote by the Washington State Sentencing Guidelines Commission, which recommended lighter sentences for such offenders.

The commission’s decision mirrors SB 5312, advocating for alternatives to incarceration for crimes with “no identifiable victim,” citing lower recidivism rates among those convicted in stings compared to offenders who target real children.

Art dealer who told FBI about Epstein’s child porn affinity in 1996 says he threatened to BURN her house down

An art dealer who sounded the alarm on Jeffrey Epstein‘s sickening affinity for child pornography a decade before the FBI investigated the disgraced financier said he scared her into silence by threatening to set her home ablaze. 

Maria Farmer, who Epstein once hired to help him buy artwork, has long asserted that she filed a complaint against the sex offender in September 1996. 

On Friday, the FBI finally released a copy of the document – solidifying what Farmer has been arguing for years. 

‘I’ve waited 30 years,’ Farmer told The New York Times. ‘I can’t believe it. They can’t call me a liar anymore.’

But she said it does not negate the fact that investigators ‘harmed all of these little girls’ by not taking her concerns seriously. 

In the released complaint, which has Farmer’s name redacted, authorities wrote that she had taken photos of her 12 and 16-year-old sisters for her personal portfolio that Epstein stole. 

Farmer, who was 25 at the time, claimed that Epstein ‘sold the pictures to potential buyers’ and told her ‘that if she tells anyone about the photos, he will burn her house down,’ as per the document. 

The now 56-year-old visual artist clarified in an interview that the photos Epstein stole included nude images, according to the NY Times.

Democrat and CONVICTED Child Molester Runs for Mayor of Providence, Rhode Island

A Democrat with a documented conviction for child molestation has quietly entered the 2026 mayoral race in Providence.

According to reporting by the Providence Journal, the upcoming Providence mayoral contest currently includes incumbent Mayor Brett Smiley, state Rep. David Morales, and a third, lesser-known challenger: Michael English.

What voters are only now learning is that English is not merely an outsider candidate, he is a convicted child molester who served multiple prison sentences stemming from sexual crimes involving a 13-year-old girl.

English, now 54, acknowledged in a campaign announcement that he had been incarcerated, vaguely referring to “immature decisions” that derailed his life.

What he did not initially disclose is that those “decisions” resulted in four felony counts, including first-degree and second-degree child molestation, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

According to the Providence Journal, then 26-year-old English engaged in sexual acts with a minor between January and March of 1997, meeting the girl at various locations across northern Rhode Island, including the Lincoln Mall. In 1998, he pleaded no contest to the charges.

Despite prosecutors recommending a 40-year sentence, a Superior Court judge handed English a 20-year sentence with more than 90 percent suspended, meaning he served just 15 months before being released early for “good behavior.”

If that were not disturbing enough, English later violated a court-ordered no-contact order involving the same victim. In 2009, the victim reported that English drove to her home and attempted to initiate contact.

He was found guilty and sentenced to five more years, ultimately serving nearly two additional years behind bars before being placed under house arrest.

Yet today, English is not listed on the Rhode Island Sex Offender Registry, thanks to a court ruling that limited his registration requirement to ten years, which expired in 2007.

Former Top Virginia Democrat Official CHARGED with Distributing Child Pornography — Court Documents Reveal Disturbing Evidence

A former top Democrat Party official in Virginia has been charged federally with the distribution of child pornography, according to newly unsealed court documents filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.

Randon Alexander Sprinkle, a former finance chairman of the Virginia Democratic Party and former treasurer for the Metro Richmond Area Young Democrats, is accused in a criminal complaint of possessing and distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including videos involving infants and very young children.

The criminal complaint, obtained by National Review, was filed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and sworn out by an FBI special agent assigned to the Richmond Field Office’s Child Exploitation Task Force.

According to the filing, FBI Richmond executed a federal search warrant on October 16, 2025, at Sprinkle’s residence in Richmond, Virginia. Federal agents seized multiple electronic devices, including an iPhone and laptop computers.

The affiant states that, following forensic extraction and review, investigators identified multiple archived files constituting child pornography, including videos and images involving minors.

The complaint further alleges that at least one video recovered depicts sexual abuse of an infant, a detail explicitly cited in the court record to establish probable cause.

The case stems from an FBI undercover operation conducted in May 2025, in which a task force officer operating online allegedly engaged with a user later identified as Sprinkle on a dating application and subsequently on Telegram.

Court documents allege that the account linked to Sprinkle shared explicit child sexual abuse material and expressed interest in the exploitation of minors.

The complaint states that investigators later linked Sprinkle’s online identities to his personal devices, phone number, email address, and IP address, tying the communications directly to him.

New Zealand Ex-Top Cop Avoids Jail for Child and Bestiality Porn Offences

A New Zealand court sentenced the country’s former deputy police commissioner to nine months of home detention on Wednesday, after he admitted to possessing child sexual exploitation and bestiality material.

Jevon McSkimming, who until late last year was New Zealand’s second-highest ranking police officer, was arrested and charged in June with eight counts of possessing objectionable material.

The 52-year-old admitted to three charges in November, including possession of child sexual exploitation and bestiality images which were stored on his work devices.

Judge Tim Black handed down a nine-month home detention sentence in the Wellington District Court on Wednesday, ruling McSkimming would not have to register as a child sexual offender.

The judge adopted a starting point of three years’ prison, but gave deductions for McSkimming’s guilty plea, remorse and attempts at rehabilitation.

He said McSkimming was of low risk to the community.

McSkimming’s lawyer, Letizea Ord, said her client was deeply ashamed of his actions.

One of the original charges said the offences happened between July 2020 and December 2024.

McSkimming was suspended from his job on full pay in December 2024, when an internal investigation into his conduct was launched.

He was on leave for six months before his resignation in May.

New Zealand police commissioner Richard Chambers in November described the case as “disgraceful” after McSkimming’s guilty pleas.

“The outcome shows all police, no matter their rank, are accountable to the laws that apply to us all,” he said.

Former Prince Andrew May Live in Decrepit Farm After Leaving Royal Lodge Mansion, as Late Virginia Giuffre’s Family Is Furious With Met Police for Dropping Investigation on Him

Disgraced former Prince Andrew is still in the world’s headlines – for the usual bad reasons.

Late Jeffrey Epstein’s victim Virginia Giuffre’s family is furious with Met police, saying that ‘justice has not been served’ upon learning that the Met Police announced they will drop a probe against Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, the former Prince and Duke of York.

Andrew reportedly asked his security officer to ‘dig up dirt’ on his accuser Giuffre.

“A bombshell email obtained by the Mail on Sunday exposed how Andrew asked his taxpayer-funded Met bodyguard to find out information on Virginia Giuffre and passed him her date of birth and confidential social security number.”

The two-tier Met Police force announced on Friday (12) that it will not launch an investigation into the matter.

“Ms. Giuffre’s family has said they are ‘deeply disappointed’ by the force’s decision to drop the investigation ‘without explanation’, adding they were not told the announcement was being made.

[…] ‘With the Epstein files about to be released by [the US] congress since the passage of the Epstein Transparency Act, we are surprised that the Metropolitan Police didn’t wait to see what further evidence might appear.

‘While we have hailed the UK’s overall handling of the case of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor previously, today we feel justice has not been served’.”
