Peter Robbins is a regular guest on the UFOlogical radio
programme Podcast UFO. In the latest
show in which he is featured he describes his split from his Left at East Gate co-author Larry Warren
from about thirty-six minutes in to the fifty-five minute mark, see: https://youtu.be/xuffO2ayvNQ?t=36m51s.
Peter explains how his doubts began "a
little over two years ago." This is about the time Larry's friendship
with Sacha Christie broke down; shortly before the Scottish UFO and Paranormal
Conference 2016, see: http://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.co.uk/2016/06/scottish-ufo-and-paranormal-conference.html.
Peter refers to this conference soon afterwards and says that people began to "do their own investigations"
and wrote to him with "increasing
frustration until I began to look at this material". However other
people, including myself, were examining the same material and finding serious
flaws in it. I also contacted Peter and discussed this with him; I published my
conclusions in a detailed series of articles, see: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.co.uk/2016/12/is-larry-warren-fraud.html.
I've called this series The Larry Warren
Controversy and it is almost finished; I have just one more instalment to
write. I originally entitled it Is Larry
Warren a Fraud?, but soon changed it when it became obvious to me after a thorough
and dispassionate examination of the facts, that the answer to that question is
an unequivocal "no". However Peter Robbins has bought into the hype
completely. He wrote a very extensive statement describing his position which,
in the minority of its content that is factual, is virtually a transcription of
Sacha Christie's assertions. He has never been a writer renowned for brevity,
and this was no exception; in fact it has been nicknamed the "War and
Peace" document. However I believe I have successfully deconstructed all the
points Peter made in it, see: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.co.uk/2017/06/the-larry-warren-controversy-part-16.html.
Since then Peter has done a U-turn that a Turkish taxi driver would have
trouble carrying out. He has withdrawn his two response books to Nick Pope and
Col. Halt as well as unilaterally ceasing the publication of Left at East Gate. He has publicly
apologized to most of the people he previously criticized. He now uses the word
"defaming" to describe his
actions. His mea culpa has been
generously received by his former enemies and they have warmly embraced him back
into the fold. Peter repeats the falsehood he wrote in his statement that Larry
had threatened a member of the audience at the Scottish conference. As I
explain in my review, Larry did nothing of the sort. Peter also tables the
accusations that Larry purloined and hawked counterfeit rock-and-roll
memorabilia. We are still waiting for Larry to be arrested and questioned over
that very serious alleged offence. Tino has made another video with Larry
countering the smears regarding Larry's relationship with the music industry,
see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SLMYr9vI3I.
Despite all this I detect some inner conflict with Peter.
It's impossible to know for sure because he has broken his friendship with me
as well. Interestingly this only happened when the polygraph results were
published. Before that he was perfectly happy to tolerate me on an
agree-to-disagree basis. We communicated regularly in a civil manner during
this period, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.co.uk/2017/12/the-larry-warren-controversy-part-27.html.
Why then? Why not before? Why not
after? I also found it very odd that Peter had a stall for LAEG at the Roswell
