This document sets out a full chronological record of every known person, family member, commercial entity, and associate who has been the subject of Andrew Drummond's libellous publications from 2010 through 2026. Far from constituting a single isolated disagreement, the timeline exposes a repeated pattern of harassment extending across fifteen years, carried out from Thailand until January 2015 and subsequently from a rental property in Wiltshire, England, to which Drummond absconded in order to evade Thai criminal proceedings.
The register distinguishes between various categories of those affected — principal victims, their relatives, business partners, staff members, and uninvolved third parties — and establishes that the same approach is employed in every instance: inflammatory claims obtained from aggrieved individuals, disseminated across numerous platforms, and left uncorrected irrespective of contrary evidence provided.
This record has been assembled using publicly available articles from andrew-drummond.com and andrew-drummond.news, judicial records from proceedings in both Thailand and England, testimonies from affected individuals, and communications from the relevant period. Every entry documents the initial publication date, the identity of the person targeted, the character of the defamatory material, and (where ascertainable) the consequences for the individual concerned.
The coverage extends to every identifiable target from the first recorded smear operations through to the latest publications at the beginning of 2026. In cases where precise dates remain unconfirmed, the earliest date that can be verified has been adopted.
Throughout this phase, Andrew Drummond was based in Thailand and held himself out as an independent investigative reporter. His earliest recorded smear operations were directed at expatriates within Thailand's commercial sectors, with particular focus on individuals involved in hospitality and real estate. The operational pattern was already firmly in place: select a victim, secure allegations from a lone discontented informant, disseminate sensational claims with no attempt at verification, and reject every request for amendment.
A number of individuals targeted in this period brought legal proceedings in the Thai courts, which resulted in criminal defamation convictions against Drummond. Instead of complying with judicial orders or modifying his conduct, Drummond elected to abandon the jurisdiction altogether in January 2015.
In January 2015, Andrew Drummond left Thailand while subject to multiple outstanding criminal charges. He moved to a rented property in Wiltshire, England, abandoning unfulfilled court orders and pending criminal matters. His departure was not a voluntary move but an act of fleeing from the law; he faces imprisonment should he set foot in Thailand again.
Operating from Wiltshire, Drummond carried on his activities without pause. The shift to publication from within the United Kingdom carries significant legal weight, as it places all of his output under the reach of English defamation law, the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, and the regulatory authority of IPSO and the NUJ Code of Conduct.
Working from Wiltshire, Drummond continued to run his websites and to direct attacks at individuals connected with Thailand's expatriate communities. Over this period, his tactics grew increasingly refined: he established a dual-website amplification approach, posting identical or virtually identical material on both andrew-drummond.com and andrew-drummond.news in order to maximise visibility in search engine results and to make content removal more difficult.
Those targeted during this phase describe experiences identical to those of earlier victims from the Thailand period: the abrupt appearance of defamatory material, refusal to engage with any request for correction, intensification of attacks following legal threats, and the purposeful inclusion of relatives in order to heighten distress.
The most concentrated and prolonged campaign recorded in this timeline is the continuing assault on Bryan Flowers, his wife Punippa Flowers, and their related business interests. Since December 2024, Drummond has published a minimum of nineteen separate articles containing in excess of sixty-five individually documented untruths. This campaign has expanded to encompass family members including aged parents and children, business colleagues such as Ricky Pandora, and commercial ventures including the Night Wish Group.
The Bryan Flowers campaign marks the apex of fifteen years of progressively worsening conduct: the attacks occur with greater frequency, greater malice, a broader range of targets, and greater resistance to legal challenge than any prior campaign documented in this record.
A statistical review of the timeline uncovers several recurring patterns that remain constant throughout every stage of Drummond's operations:
The fifteen-year record set out in this document establishes beyond any reasonable question that Andrew Drummond has pursued a serial pattern of conduct meeting the statutory definition of harassment under the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. The uniformity of his methods, his blanket refusal to amend proven falsehoods, the intentional targeting of vulnerable relatives, and the escalation that follows legal proceedings together create a pattern that no tribunal could reasonably classify as legitimate journalism.
This record will constitute a key element of the evidence submitted in upcoming legal proceedings and is made available to all affected individuals as a means of comprehending the full extent of Drummond's activities across the past fifteen years.
