According to his ego online at https://www.petersquires.net

"In 2003 he was briefly co-opted onto the Home Office Firearms Consultative Committee as a result of his work in the field of firearms and crime. "

I found the word 'briefly' interesting. It suggests he was rumbled by someone that actually knew what they're about.

I do believe this to be BS he made up. There are reports that there was a FOI request to find out what role he played and it turned out they didn't know who he was.

I read he was an advisor direct from the NABIS website, several years ago - cant find any trace of it now.

A lot of information that was originally on their website, when it was first set-up, now seems "out of view".

All of these lead to a dead end.:

Its interesting that the GCN seems to have no way for a person to join .

Clearly a very secret society .

I remember seeing a list of their supporters, included Sainsbury's as I remember it. I did try to look it up sometime later but the reference had disappeared from their web site.

Someone summing up the GCN:

If you search "Gill Marshall-Andrews" (Wife of Ex Labour/Liberal MP, Bob Marshall-Andrews) you will see just how much of the anti-gun hysteria she is responsible for.

The article is a straight, localised copy paste job (I.e. lazy journalists)

If you google a phrase from it, you’ll see all the other local rags that have run the same article

It happens every year or two. Same 'local' rag network spamming the same article at the same time.
