Will the FCDO demand Zimbabwean Ambassador - [Rtd Col] Christain M Katsande, be asked to answer accusations of intimidation of the Zimbabwean diaspora in the UK, with yet another article of Zimbabweans being named, here in the UK. The Zanu PF mafia cannot be allowed to strong-arms its lunatic demands here in the UK?
""THE Government of Zimbabwe has intensified its scrutiny on individuals in the diaspora - alleged to be disseminating information and engaging in activities aimed at destabilising the country's image abroad.""
They are seeking to "invoke" (according to this article)
""The Government of Zimbabwe has invoked the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Amendment Act of 2023, widely known as the "Patriotic Act". The Law criminalises "wilfully injuring the sovereignty and national interest of Zimbabwe," - including collaborating with foreign governments, media or NGOs in ways that are deemed harmful to national security or reputational integrity.""
Given the gross hypocrisy of Zanu PF talking of "Patriotism", "injuring sovereignty", "national interests" and "REPURATIONAL INTEGRITY" - considering Zanu PF's 45 year LOOTING spree - this is surely just a joke by a junior 'Staff Reporter'??
Will the Home Office become involved by virtue of those named having leave to remain, or in the process of asylum?
How can this happen? What if this was Iran or Ukraine?
This is not new, the Zimbabwe press and media has {slavishly} demanded action against legitimate protest here in the UK. Under "instructions" from Zanu PF it wouls seem??

We are at a loss to understand the regime's concerns (incidentally they cannot be called a government - a kleptocracy is a better term) - they are really complaining that their myriad of criminal activities is being exposed by an active and perceptive diaspora. Which should be the PATRIOTIC DUTY of all Zimbabweans!
UPDATE: We must also thank AI which produced this very poignant concluding summary statement:
The fact that this targeting comes after activists successfully influenced diplomatic visits shows their advocacy is effective - which is precisely why the government is trying to silence them through intimidation.
We are deciding upon various courses of actions to challenge this pathertic attempt to further white-wash the multiplicity of crimes perpetrated in Zimbabwe and beyond by the military junta masqurading as a "government" in Zimbabwe: Watch this space!!

What is happening at the FLAIR SUMMIT 17-18th June 2025? Last week they 'claimed' they had an "Emergency meeting" to discuss the issue of the Zimbabwean Dictator's Wife - Namely Auxilla Mnangagwa - herself an ex CIO (Secret Police/Informant/Operative) within the horrendous, evil and corrupt Zanu PF regime that has held Zimbabwe HOSTAGE for over 45 years!
Then another claim was that Auxilla (herself) was rushed to Hospital (in Zimbabwe? not likely!!) - semi-conscious!! Plus, a request from an unknown tourism "businessman" at the Zimbabwe Embassy in London - should like to talk through our grievances!! But are there actually any businessmen/women in Zimbabwe - who are NOT looting from the State? Valid Question we feel.
But now silence? Was this yet more Zanu PF disinformation - ruses to defuse the protests expected? Who knows - but since AUX is listed as "Patron Elect" our 'guess' is that it is Auxilla & Zanu PF are on a regime "Laundering Exercise" and money has "changed hands" - allegedly!!
the MAIN EVENT! TODAY and already we are responding to the 714 people who listened to the Twitter Spaces on Sunday evening:

More Disturbing Zanu PF Disinformation Today
Today we are experiencing some Déjà vu
In 2021 when the regime decided that there was “mileage” in the ‘Climate Agenda’, they foolishly put ED Mnangagwa’s name down to attend COP26 in Glasgow! Cue UK Protests! We followed Zanu PF cynically parroting the meaningless Climate Hogwash – as they perceived “an opportunity” to make money and “refresh” their stale-image.
Wrong on so many levels.
We think it was the UK Passport Holder and Spokesperson in Harare, Nick Mangwana who coined the first iteration of the Zanu PF ‘thinking’ about COP26 with the now infamous “Booze Cruise” utterance – but we could be mistaken as Zanu PF re-write history far too often.
This Time
So today, the 30th May 2025 we have a very similar attempt to both discredit (including further libel) and frighten legitimate Zimbabwean protest – with threats of “imminent deportations” back to the Zimbabwean regime – where threats of physical violence have been documented on returnee’s deemed against the regime. But more later – let us review the Déjà vu.
Last Time
On hearing that ED Mnangagwa was attending COP26 in Glasgow in November 2021 our protest planning started in the September. We started questioning why was the Zanu PF regime in the UK (and Europe) when all they profess in Zimbabwe is so attractive.

Problem Posed: “The Minister for State Security, Lovemore Matuke has warned social media users who agitate for the removal of Mr Mnangagwa through demonstrations that they would be dealt with ruthlessly by the system. His message comes when the Second Republic is accused of unbridled corruption in high offices and the economy is plunging with unemployment standing at over 80%.”

“War veterans led by Blessing Geza recently issued statements urging Mnangagwa to leave. Geza has however, gone underground after Police laid charges against him while journalist, Blessing Mhlanga who interviewed him is in custody.”
X/Twitter: Grok3 Item in Response
To assess the authenticity of the statement, "Minister for State Security, Lovemore Matuke has warned social media users who agitate for the removal of Mr Mnangagwa through demonstrations that they would be dealt with ruthlessly by the system," I’ll approach it by considering available information and context up to the current date, February 26, 2025. You mentioned having a photo of a press article, which could be helpful, but since I can’t see it, I’ll rely on reasoning, existing patterns, and relevant background data to evaluate its plausibility.
“Lovemore Matuke is indeed the Minister of State for National Security in Zimbabwe as of late 2024, appointed by President Emmerson Mnangagwa in November 2024 to oversee the Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO). He also holds the position of Zanu-PF Politburo Secretary for Security, giving him a significant role in both government and party security matters. His public statements, as reported in recent months, often focus on maintaining party discipline, countering dissent, and addressing perceived threats to Mnangagwa’s leadership.”
“For instance, in November 2024, Matuke warned Zanu-PF members against misusing social media to undermine party unity, emphasizing that the party would track and discipline offenders. He’s also been linked to efforts to curb information leaks and restrict media access to party events, signaling a hard-line stance on controlling narratives.”
“The statement you provided aligns with this pattern. Zimbabwe’s government, under Mnangagwa’s Second Republic, has a documented history of responding harshly to dissent, particularly when it involves protests or social media campaigns. Past incidents—like the 2019 crackdown on fuel price protests or the 2020 arrests of activists during the #ZimbabweanLivesMatter movement—show a willingness to use force and legal measures against those challenging the regime.”

On this day of all days, the 37th Anniversary of the {forced} signing of the "Unity Accord" - itself a testimony to the aberration of the Zanu PF Military Junta - in conducting the Gukurahundi GENOCIDE to force the hand of ZAPU President Joshua Nkomo {at that time their ally!} into subsuming his independence party within the {evil} Zanu PF structures. In effect the creation of a One-Party-State {Mugabe's plan all along} - thus destroying any semblance of a DEMOCRACY! So hardly "UNITY" at all!
Today in the scurrilous rag the New Zimbabwe is an article which stinks of INTIMIDATION upon all Opposition within the Diaspora {LINKHERE} but in case they decide to scrub this unhelpful {to Zimbabwe's standing within SADC or Globally} diatribe we have taken the time to create an image of the article HERE - which can be enlarged by clicking the image icon itself.
WE DEMAND an APOLOGY: From the Zimbabwean Ambassador and the Zanu PF administration in Zimbabwe. This is unacceptalbe INTIMIDATION and DISINFORMATION.
This is catastrophic for any hope of a democratic space in Zimbabwe, their infamous role within SADC - and most damaging - any hope of re-admission into the British Commonwealth {sic}. We should like to know this "Staff Reporter", who signed-off this article for publication and WHY - on the 22nd December 2024 - The 37th ANNIVERSARY of the {so called} "UNITY ACCORD" - itself a damning testimony of the sickening objectives of Mugabe and co, informing a One-Party-State - at ANY COST - that was the basis of the Gukurahundi Geocodes!
We have written before about CIO Spies in the UK {and elsewhere. CLICK HERE} who are subtly and not-so-subtly intimidating many within the diaspora - those who have fled the torture chambers of Zimbabwe's CIO's and assorted psychopaths. Some are named within this disgraceful article which is blatant DISINFORMATION. We recall similar disinformation way back in November 2021 after our demonstrations in Glasgow at COP26 and Mnangagwa's cynical visit, at the invitation of the UN.
