Lighthouse Daily – 28th July 2026…
Good day, fellow citizens and brothers and sisters in Christ,
Today’s update is about a 10-minute read.
In this update:
- The First Divine Law
- The Cowardice of Richard Thomas Exposed
- What Is the BBC Doing to Our Children?
If you are new to our work at Lighthouse Global and want to know why the Establishment attacked us, click below to read a statement from our CEO and founder, Paul S. Waugh.
A Statement by Paul S. Waugh – Why Lighthouse Global is a Provably Observable Threat to The Top-Tier Establishment and Its Totalitarian Agenda and Why They Have Attacked Us in Order to Destroy. Click the + to expand and read the full explanation.
I have written this statement as a contextual precursor to all articles written in relation to the Establishment, BBC, agencies and mainstream media attacks on us.
It is critical that you understand the real underlying reason we were — and are — continually and increasingly attacked in order for us to be destroyed by their hand.
Here is a starting question…
Why would they spend five very long years (to date) and tens of millions of pounds attempting to destroy us?
SPOILER ALERT — I will tell you this, it’s not because we are this micro “cult” founded and run by a petty liar, mind-controller (like them) and non-criminal (like me).
Note: I would like to be clear that our main restraining force to getting the truth out to date is, has been and will be the extent, or lack of global public reach; something the BBC, mainstream media and agencies are working hard on behind the scenes to deny us (such reach) at all costs.
They cannot afford for us to expose and reveal them for who they really are, for what they have done and are doing.
They will never be trusted by the public ever again once they are fully exposed, in line with their diabolical modus operandi.
This is now about to change dramatically for the Glory of God and His Truth…
So why did the Establishment spend millions on attacking Lighthouse Global?
Well it certainly wasn’t because they were "exposing" this tiny micro entity (or "cult") called Lighthouse for all the laboriously false reasons they gave in their provably fake documentary.
A documentary with literally hundreds of falsehoods, lies and deceptions in it, which we will reveal comprehensively.
Here is the real reason why the Establishment spent so much time, effort and money on us...
They spent millions of pounds attempting to destroy the credibility of the people (us at Lighthouse) in order to obliterate the most ground-breaking human potential research ever.
This is totally in line with our plans to influence the building of millions of purpose-built, solution-orientated, problem-solving communities worldwide.
Secularly speaking, most of these purpose-built communities would not be formed under or initiated by Lighthouse (as this huge dark "sinister cult" - cue sinister BBC music...) but independently started and run.
Why?
So that people would not be as reliant on the state and the Establishment and so they could be in better control of our common problems.
Governments would be smaller and taxation a fraction of what it is now.
Here is the problem to the Establishment, especially those at the top tier... They do not want to relinquish control.
They want more.
How much more? Totalitarian levels of more.
They therefore desperately need to stop us.
Note: Additionally, many of these purpose-built communities would be started by us Christians, in line with our commission in Christ, and our obstacles to achieving the Kingdom's said aims and objectives etc.
When the Establishment realised this... they REALLY pulled out their big war chest and their collective big guns!
So what did they do?
They spent millions of pounds to prevent our research, findings and evidence being revealed publicly.
They simply could not afford to be exposed.
They spent millions of pounds and years of effort using huge multi-agency teams to try and destroy us.
They spent millions of pounds and put hundreds of people to work at huge risk to their reputation, credibility and existence.
Why?
As said, to do their absolute damnedest to destroy this Christian initiative of global purpose-directed community teachers and builders.
No… they were not using all these resources over the last five years to attempt to destroy a little micro “cult”. A supposed cult that was taking over a relative handful of people's lives (20 or so at the time)... apparently.
They were out to destroy our work because its potential to empower people’s lives threatened their very existence as a totalitarian-intentioned Establishment.
It threatened their power, position, their totalitarian-control agenda and their stranglehold on all resources and wealth.
Most of the Associates at Lighthouse have had little idea of the extent, breadth and depth of our research program. It had to be kept largely, almost extensively under the radar.
The Last Days: A Critical To-Do List
There is an entire series of books coming out on this and our proposals on what to do about it moving forward in Christ entitled;
“The Last Days: A Critical To-Do List: 22 years of Ground-breaking Research - Warning: Christian Interventions Needed Soon, Lest It Be Too Late”.
There will soon be a comprehensive write-up (ongoing) on this series starting in the next few weeks.
No matter how much they endeavour to destroy myself, Paul S. Waugh, with their lies — or even the truth (which would be an extreme change) — it does not and will not change the truth about the systemic strategies they use to drastically limit the masses, A.K.A. the non-elites.
Destroying us by smearing or otherwise will not change who they are and what they are doing.
It will not change the truth.
We will vindicate the truth by eliminating the false narrative between us (the people and the truth) that is being orchestrated by a corrupt media and its establishment.
We will soon be launching our new desperately needed organisation, Vindicate International, for this very purpose. We will correct the record one way or the other.
We will lobby and do the necessary advocacy work in relation to how correction of the record is implemented and most notably stymied at an implementation level by various regulatory organisations, like Ofcom and IPSO.
So attempting to destroy us at Lighthouse Global will not change the truth... or who hears it.
In fact, all this time, money and effort spent intending to destroy our work and our lives has just served to make their problem - and the consequences for their heinous actions against us - worse at an exponential level!
We are now seeing that they are slowly starting to realise this.... finally.
They still have a way to go, but they are getting there.
To attempt to ruin myself, Lighthouse Global and its Associates - or not - is to ruin themselves. They have done and intend to do terrible things to the global population.
The Establishment simply, by God’s own laws and principles, cannot TALK themselves out of what they have collectively ACTED themselves into!
In The Final Analysis...
When an Establishment organisation like the BBC needs to destroy someone or a group that are doing the right thing that is genuinely in the public interest (especially for the Glory of God), but against their overlord and elites’ ruinous agenda, they need to find a fabricated and contrived reason in the so-called public interest to do so.
They did this with their fake documentary “A Very British Cult”.
THEN THEY PROVABLY GOT ESTABLISHMENT AGENCIES AND CO-CONSPIRATORS TO GRANT IT FALSE CREDIBILITY.
This ultimately all comes imminently with two ruinous things for them:
- A terrible price in the medium and long term across the board.
- A very short timeline from here.
We are about to reveal our research with full evidence of how the establishment and its media have attempted to destroy us. All glory to our Lord, Saviour and Redeemer, Jesus Christ.
You are all in our prayers.
Yours sincerely,
Paul S. Waugh
1. Our Personal, Interpersonal & Global Commission from Christ: The Problems We Face and Solutions Needed
The First Divine Law
“We love, because He first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19
Why has God commanded us to love Him with all our heart, mind, soul and strength?
This is a question many ask, but few genuinely wrestle with.
The answers have multiplied exponentially, yet the full answer is inexhaustible. Every possibility in time and eternity is bound to love, and ultimately to God. The first divine law is agape—constructive, self-sacrificing love—and it precedes every other command because it gives every command its right order and purpose, and the spirit life essence to live them.
Love is not a sentimental addition to faith. It determines whether our perception of God’s law becomes life-giving guidance or a weapon turned upon ourselves and others. Without love, we end up resisting the truth where we so need it, until we break ourselves against it.
The love of God that we receive governs every other human love: love in marriage and family, love for the Body of Christ, for ourselves and even for our enemies. It shapes how we treasure righteousness, what is sacred, discipline, character, problems and their true solutions. It is the force that orders how we relate to everyone and everything, how we solve problems and the subsequent optimal value we create TheoChristologically, humanly, materially and financially.
As the Apostle John states through the Divine Inspiration of the Holy Spirit, we do not love from our own sense of will. We love, and we love God, because He has loved and continues to love us first.
We must therefore not rush to love others from an empty heart. We cannot give what we have not first received. Before we try to love our spouse, children, brothers and sisters, neighbour or enemy, we must receive God’s love personally, deeply and continually.
This is not an optional beginning; it is the source of every true act of agape constructive love. Only as His love fills us can it flow through us—transforming our understanding, our fellowship and our obedience from the inside out.
This love may begin simply as childlike infatuation. But it must become the ruling principle of our lives. As we learn self-sacrifice and apply this law, truth and wisdom can work as God intended: not coldly, harshly or abstractly, but to build, restore and make whole.
We will expand on what it means to both receive God’s love and love Him, in the coming days and weeks.
2. Targeted from Within: The Greatest Threats to the Body of Christ from Inside
The Cowardice of Richard Thomas Exposed
“The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.” — Proverbs 28:1
Following the BBC’s hit-piece “A Very British Cult”, on Lighthouse in 2023, and after initial signs that the BBC might not be willing to grant us our full and comprehensive right to respond to every false and true allegation made in their program, we decided to create our own opportunity to do so.
After all, if the BBC really thought Paul S. Waugh was the nasty cult leader they alleged, and that Lighthouse was this terrible controlling cult, what would be better than having an opportunity for audiences to witness a live, unedited debate between Paul S. Waugh and his maliciously false accusers?
Surely, given the BBC’s desperation for ratings and clicks, they would love such an opportunity to reveal just who they falsely characterised Paul as to the blood-thirsty public? They knew they couldn’t. When their dark fantasy meets reality… poof… the BBC goes up in smoke!
We therefore set a date for the 23rd April 2024, to host what we called the David vs Goliath showdown; a chance for Lighthouse and our accusers to meet in a livestreamed debate, where both sides would have the opportunity to present all of their evidence, accusations, defences, etc. in front of a live audience.
Why live? Because the BBC thrives on smearing by way of editing their programs in order to deceive the public. Just ask President Trump. Just ask us at Lighthouse.
We sent 52 invitations via email and social media to every single individual involved in the production of “A Very British Cult”. This included their false, malicious and demoniac sources who gave false witness statements, and anyone involved in the smear and hate campaign on Lighthouse that pre-dated the BBC’s attack.
Richard Thomas was one of those individuals.
Just like the coward that Richard Thomas is, so is every single one of the other 51 predators that we sent the invites to.
If you are unfamiliar with who Richard Thomas really is, you can read a brief summary here:
The excerpt below is from a Twitter/X post by Paul S. Waugh about Richard Thomas, posted on the 21st April 2024, two days before the showdown.
It was made following a typically cynical, arrogant and totally foolish, unwise statement made by Richard Thomas in response to his personal invitation to the David vs Goliath Showdown.
This post is one of many, many posts in the public domain that completely exposed all of the BBC’s fake whistleblowing sources, their so-called cult-expert Alexandra Stein, and many others — yet the BBC still went ahead with their diabolical assassination attempt…
21ST APRIL 2024 – “CHIEF PREDATORY TROLL RICHARD THOMAS OF MONETATE TRIES TO JUSTIFY HIS COWARDICE” BY PAUL S. WAUGH
These people really cannot help but reveal themselves!..
For context, let me make a few things clear about our Mr Thomas…
This is a man who actually DIDN’T want to leave Lighthouse. He left because his hateful nagging and spiteful wife, Antonia Brider-Thomas of XDP Ltd, harassed him night and day for him to leave, to the point where he felt he had to choose between his family or Lighthouse.. (all provable in his own words on text messages to us at the time but VERY inconvenient for him now).
This is a man who I personally supported, paying for supplements and whatever he needed to get well after he became very sick with Covid-19. I made both public and personal commitments to him and the care of his family at a time when he was battling with his health and employment (all on recordings). What a terrible place of anguish for him to have been to warrant me needing to make such assurances.
CHIEF PREDATORY TROLL RICHARD THOMAS OF MONETATE TRIES TO JUSTIFY HIS COWARDICE!
This is a man who (before he ever made any complaint about me or Lighthouse) I proactively offered a full £25,000 refund, which he was not entitled to, on purely compassionate grounds, because of his illness. Once again provable.
This is a man who, despite being severely ill, and struggling with his full-time job and who had a family to look after, BLANKED that refund offer and all attempts to contact him, for 5-6 MONTHS!..
Now let’s pause a second for me to ask you a very reasonable and objectively logical question.. Does that sound to you like:
1. Something a supposed cult leader and scam artist would do, offer a compassionate refund?
2. The behaviour of someone (Mr Thomas) who is in a coercively controlling, financially swindling cult!? OF COURSE NOT and that is WHY he’s not coming to our event.. Because
3. Lighthouse is not a cult and I am no cult leader
4. Richard Thomas knows all of these points about him are true and would only be held up in front of him in public if he did attend on Tuesday. Not only did he NOT want to leave Lighthouse, but he argued with his wife about it for 6 months while he worked at his 9-5 job.. That’s right! Richard was only at Lighthouse on Saturday mornings and even then he struggled with just that! What sort of “coercively controlling cult” has part-time members where people can choose their own level of involvement and commitment, based on their individual circumstances?
What you have read here is just 1/5th of the entire slam-dunk post. You can read the full post here, on Paul’s website.
We are deeply concerned for the wellbeing of Mr Thomas, despite how he has single-handedly sought to destroy Lighthouse Global instead of dealing with the poisonous and toxic relationship with his own wife that jeopardises the health and safety of his children.

3. Targeted from the Outside: How The Establishment Persecutes us Christians
What Is the BBC Doing to Our Children?
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” — Proverbs 22:6
In its recent propaganda advert, “What has the BBC ever done for me?”, they boast about their children’s entertainment and charitable service to “Children in Need”.
The reality is that the BBC abuses millions of children; but this is not limited to sexual abuse. It is wholesale physical, mental, emotional and spiritual abuse.
Children are not ideological raw material to be abused. They are sacred image-bearers of God, entrusted to parents and communities to be formed in truth, wisdom, courage and responsibility.
When it comes to all matters, but especially children, the BBC’s falsified public record must be fully and comprehensively corrected.
Rather than helping children understand the sanctity of their God-given life, biological reality and full spiritual, emotional, mental and physical potential, BBC output has repeatedly normalised confusion about sex and identity for young audiences.
The evidence is in plain sight:
- “I Am Leo” Introduced children aged 6-12 to a child’s use of puberty blockers through CBBC’s My Life series.
- No More Boys and Girls: Can Our Kids Go Gender Free? Used a class of 7-year-olds to promote gender-neutral ideas. Interventions included changes to clothing and toys, whilst making boys and girls use the same toilet.
- BBC Teach’s “Understanding Sexual and Gender Identities” Told children aged 9-12 that there were “over 100 gender identities”—a claim later removed after complaints.
These are not harmless entertainment choices. They are powerful messages deliberately delivered to children at an age when they need clarity, stability and truthful guidance. This is because psychologists almost unanimously agree that a child’s first 7-10 years will significantly shape their beliefs and choices for the rest of their life. This starts with how they see themselves and the world, which ultimately determines their subsequent health and success in life.
This point about the BBC abusing children is not just relating to its programmes. It is who the BBC are, fuelled by the BBC Savile Syndrome. This means that they’ve funded and facilitated abuse by convicted paedophiles as well as protecting child abusers, as the case of “Erin” in their hit-piece on Lighthouse Global, “A Very British Cult”.
Christian parents are called to train children in the way of God’s wisdom—not to surrender that duty to broadcasters, activist educators or institutions that present ideological claims as unquestionable fact. Truth-seeking citizens should be just as concerned. Children deserve education that equips them for reality, not programming that deliberately detaches them from it and from God.
The fully evidenced reality is that the BBC has access to extensive Lighthouse Global’s research on the conditions that help people realise their God-given potential and build healthy, purpose-built communities. Yet instead of engaging honestly with that work, it has sought to discredit Lighthouse and bury the questions its research raises.
Why hide this evidence?
The Establishment objective is to indoctrinate children and make them weak so they stay infantilised and institutionalised throughout their lives. By controlling our children, they get control of a whole generation, and that’s what they’ve been working on for decades.
This update is a tiny insight into our research over the last 22 years
“They spent millions of pounds attempting to destroy the credibility of the people (us at Lighthouse) in order to obliterate the most ground-breaking human potential research ever.” – Paul S. Waugh
Note: Given Paul’s longstanding ill health resulting from the multiple Establishment attacks on him, these daily updates are generated by the team, drawing from recent and older meetings and transcripts that Paul has shared with us. We ask for you to keep him in your prayers as he builds strength and renews in our Lord.
God bless,

It’s powerful to read Paul’s tweet from 2024! Holding Richard Thomas – and everyone behind the BBC’s hit piece “A Very British Cult” accountable. 52 invites, 1 cynical response, and where is Richard Thomas now? What is he doing? Why did he run from the BBC when he was so brazen in the Daily Mail? He realised very quickly – albeit too late for him – that we were not an easy target and the repercussions were coming back on him thick and fast, especially when the police investigated him.
As is outlined here, he and we all need to receive the love of God and not be ridden by fear, hatred and cynicism. God help him… look at the BBC literally burying themselves in the opposite direction. I am incensed that I was so glued to BBC programming as a child. How much they hooked me in with their children’s programming! Yes, it wasn’t transgenderism, but it certainly was not teaching me about God, or the truth, or about my value as a human being. What a sick world. Jesus Christ we need You.
This shows again how deeply falsehoods, lies and the control of the population, often through abuse, are ingrained in the BBC’s DNA. They have so many scandals, with so many people being prosecuted for sexual abuse, and in addition they create programmes full of falsehoods that confuse people from an early age onwards. So, thank you for sharing more evidence about what they broadcast and how they indoctrinate our children through their CBBC programmes. These facts, together with their reach, create a toxic reality that is far removed from Truth.
I pray that the Body of Christ comes together, that we can receive God’s love to create much needed theochristological, human, material and financial value, so that we can serve the vulnerable and never have to say no where we ought to say yes.
Richard Thomas’ behaviour is a clear example of the consequences of not loving your neighbour, and I pray for him, that he recognises what he has done and the areas for which he needs to repent. Thank you to Paul for his post about Richard Thomas, pointing out Mr Thomas’ cowardice, how he smeared Lighthouse Global, and what the truth actually is.
What a powerful update! Thank you.
It is damning what happens when digging into the details of what’s happened over the last few years. The more I and we look into the BBC, the worse it gets. Meanwhile, the more I and we look into the evidence we hold in relation to our response to the attacks by hateful trolls on Reddit, the Daily Mail, the Insolvency Service and the BBC, the more it’s shown how absurd these assaults are.
Richard Thomas, who put his name and mugshot to a Daily Mail article, was provably offered a compassionate refund by Paul S. Waugh!
This was publicly stated on our Daily Mail site before the BBC broadcast A Very British Cult. However, it was so inconvenient to the production team’s ‘cult’ narrative that it had to be omitted.
Can you imagine if they said, “What makes Lighthouse so sinister and malevolent is that it extorts people out of money… but what’s worse is it offers compassionate refunds to those suffering with illness, provided multiple forms of support during the COVID pandemic and has invested tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of pounds into a multitude of single parents as well as those battling with cancer.”
Why was this not broadcast? Surely it’s relevant to produce an “impartial” investigation and broadcast?!?
But, it’s the BBC as the Establishment mouthpiece tasked to absolutely decimate us and our work at Lighthouse because of our work to empower citizens, especially conservative Christians…
Then lastly, what’s been presented about the BBC’s abuse of children is damning! Again, to reiterate, the more that’s investigated about the BBC, the worse it gets! They can’t talk themselves out of things they’ve acted themselves into.
So, thank God for God because without His Love and the Hope of His Kingdom, we would be so utterly and completely hopeless!
Reading how the BBC has indoctrinated children! Oh my..that really is sick and satanic. How could they possibly think this is healthy!! This is a national broadcaster receiving millions and billions. It’s an absolute abuse of our resources. This is why Christians in particular need to receive God’s love and use it to protect children.
If God is the eternal, infinite, personal, omniscient. omnipresent, omnipotent uncreated, life Field, love field, ultimate Being and first cause of all space-time and everything and everyone in it — which I totally believe He is and more — then to think that we don’t need Him and that we aren’t dependent on Him for even existing is folly in the highest of levels. Realising and coming to learn that I can’t love God first without Him first loving me, and receiving that love, totally changed and continues to change everything for me. This is not what the world will ever teach you or, for that matter, want you to know.
Reading what the BBC has DONE and is DOING to children makes my blood curdle at how despicable that is. To say they have abused and are abusing their position doesn’t really cut it. The public must do something about this. A class action is the very least.
Paul’s 4 points at the end of his piece on Mr Thomas says it all. What you realise about liars, deceivers, smear campaigners and general purveyors of falsehoods is they can and never want to face the inconvenient facts and truth head on and out in the open.
What a powerful update!
It covered everything from our relationship with God being at the primary level, to exposing the sheer cowardice of Richard Thomas and the consequences of that. His example alone powerfully debunks the notion that Lighthouse is a cult.
Lastly, the discussion around the propagandist-fed lies being pushed onto our children was incredibly important. It is deeply concerning and disgraceful that a national broadcaster would allow such content to be aired. Having learned what we have, it is sadly unsurprising given what has been described here as the establishment’s agenda — not to truly educate the masses, but to further indoctrinate them into ideas that deny people are made in the image of God. They ought to be deeply ashamed.
Thank you for such a powerful update.
God bless.
The fact that Richard Thomas was offered a refund but then didn’t take it and then tried to blackmail Lighthouse shows the entire origin of the attacks against us were always a premeditated smear campaign. The source “critics” against Lighthouse whether it was the Daily Mail or the BBC are the same people, chief amongst them Richard Thomas who was Covid vaccine injured and needed support. But was so devoured at home that he turned fully against us. It’s honestly tragic and I pray that he is healing and that he repents to make this right.
The examples there of the harm the BBC have done by pushing radical gender ideology on kids is disgusting. They are pushing how much good they’ve done meanwhile the reality is that no supposed good makes up for radical ideologies that they are still pushing. Not to mention that they’ve also pushed materials to children normalising having two dads. Children have a right to their biological mother and a father, and anything else is at the expense of the child. Those children are in need and the BBC clearly doesn’t care about them. It’s outrageous that when they push ideology like that that anyone calls them anything other than state propaganda
It has been a revelation to have the paradigm of receiving God’s love first before loving Him, because I don’t know love, and who is love personified? God. Trying to love when you don’t know what love is… is very difficult indeed. This insight was a blessing of great magnitude.
Contrast that feeling and excitement with what I read about the BBC’s influence on children. The more I learn about the BBC, the more sickened I become. They are a bane on society of the worst kind, presenting themselves as friends while really being enemies. It’s like they’re trying to traffic our minds. Horrible!!
It is essential to connect with God and receive His love, so that we may love others. Mr Thomas and his wife have evidently not done this and so there is very little love between them and everyone else. Even those at Lighthouse who were asked to help them.
This same lack of God given love and care can be seen in everyone who works at The BBC. That is the only way they can claim to be loving children on one side, and promoting their abuse through woke ideology on the other.
This is why those who trolled us like Richard Thomas, did not accept our invitation….they would have had the truth laid out for them and would never recover from the total embarrassment of having each falsehood exposed effortlessly.
We have nothing to hide and we tell the truth and they do not tell the truth and have a great deal to hide. How incredibly sad and pathetic, we pray he will repent and make this right.
As for the sheer evil of the BBC and the pushing of their agenda to further confuse a generation of young people already battling with their identity, I hope as many parents see this as possible, that they come to see that the BBC care nothing for their children and are set out to destroy their susceptible and vulnerable minds.
Wow, what an update, thank you so much. How you bring together these updates, starting first with God, as it ought to be. Then bringing in situations and experiences where people are not putting God first for one reason or another, and the consequences of that…The situation of Richard Thomas and what he has tried to do to Paul and Lighthouse, there is a man who is not in God because if he was, he would not be bearing false witness…
The BBC are another example; as you have clearly proven, the way they share children’s programs, allowing them to be exposed to things they ought not be exposed to until they are well into their teens, if in fact then. This needs to change; our children need to be protected and nurtured, not told that it is ok to be something that they are not…God bless them all…
