Alex Thomson, Eastern Approaches

After learning what today’s British Establishment was all about at Rugby School and Cambridge, Alex Thomson served in a Christian mission in the former Soviet Union and went on to spend the rest of his twenties as a GCHQ officer.

He moved to the Netherlands aged thirty in 2009 and has spent the last decade and a half more quietly as a translator and interpreter and a researcher of networked evil.

Since 2014, Alex has presented his emerging findings via the Eastern Approaches brand on UK Column News, where his specialisms are Europe, geopolitics, religious affairs and constitutional matters.

He maintains the Eastern Approaches YouTube channel, mostly of careful readings of key documents indicating the scope of corruption of British and Western public life. He has two Telegram channels: Eastern Approaches and All the Eastern Approaches.
