1/ This is an important story. Some ex-Labour staff allegedly (they haven't denied it) were made to sign non-disclosure agreements stopping them revealing what was going on in the Party and how it was handling anti-Semitism and sexual harassment claims thetimes.co.uk/article/d93cf1…
2/ This is something I have been hearing for a while from a few different sources, that the compliance unit of the party, which filters all allegations against members, has been a total mess for years and almost everyone left. Nb Labour haven't denied the NDAs
3/ I am pretty confident that there is a big story underneath all this, based on what I have heard especially re political interference with the complaints process. Will be interesting to see what happens to those NDAs (which Labour said they are against in #metoo type cases)

Thatcher’s resignation
No wait it was Mandella’s release - that was earlier in the same year

No wait, it was the fall of the Berlin Wall

I’m not very good at this. It was stuff that happened in about 1989/90

I wasn’t very interested in politics
Wait, does Scott and Charlene’s wedding count?

Have dusted off my Nintendo Wii and playing through Super Mario Galaxy with my 8-year-old. Extreme fun and pleasure!
Such an amazingly imaginative and charming game and surprisingly good with two players
Watching a child play a classic Nintendo game for the first time is an amazing pleasure. These games are magical. Takes me back to playing Super Mario World on my friend's imported Super Famicom in 1991 #nerd

What a shame. I was heartened to see the Golders Green mosque, which got a lot of nasty criticism from within the Jewish community when it took over the building, was organising an outreach event commemorating Muslims who helped Jews during the Holocaust. Now cancelled.
Here is the story. Another example of the damaging hostility shown to Muslim-Jewish interfaith events by @RmSalih (see also his idiotic response to the @MitzvahDay chicken soup making event) journal.quilliaminternational.com/2019/01/04/the…
@RmSalih @MitzvahDay The event was a travelling exhibition by internationally renowned Holocaust museum Yad Vashem. Here’s what the chicken soup truther had to say

[cn/tw: sexual abuse, R Kelly]

Episode 1 of #SurvivingRKelly watch happening right now. I’ll thread here.

I’ll use the same cn/tw on each tweet if you’d like to mute. Please take care of yourself in whatever way you need to. 💜
[cn/tw: sexual abuse]

This opening sequence is powerful. You feel the pain of these women right away.
[cn/tw: sexual abuse]

Talking to his brothers about his childhood and his determination, his difficulties reading. And into a series about his past as a child victim. His little brother, Casey, talks about how it happened to him too, and R didn’t believe him, so he stayed quiet.

Road Haulage Association at Brexit committee today confirm my story from March - a number of organisations obliged to sign non disclosure agreements before discussions re: Brexit border with Government -not impressed with what they have been told, but blocked from talking details
Here’s the Sky News #brexitforensics story from March: RHA conforming they signed that the customs system they were shown “won’t work” Government “not listening”
no doubt in my mind from multiple sources that important industrial and logistics providers feel gagged by these NDAs in telling the public the reality/ correcting erroneous optimistic political claims re Brexit border preparedness.

Cant think of a precedent.

Donald Trump knows everyone hates him.

He knows everyone will turn on him.

And he knows he will turn on them.

How do I know he knows this?

He makes everyone sign Non-Disclosure Agreements.

NDA's aren't needed between people who trust each other.

1/3
NDA's are only needed between people who plan to screw each other.

And you know what scares him the most?

Stormy Daniels just proved those NDA's are all meaningless.

They're unenforceable, and most are illegal.

2/3
Trump knows everyone around him hates him.

He knows they're chomping at the bit to turn on him.

Stormy Daniels just showed them they can do it with impunity.

The flood gates are about to open.

Trump is likely to panic.

Watch for the signs.

I have come to the conclusion that the UK is irrevocably fucked.

Seriously, I think it's doomed. I don't think it can recover from here. This week has seen some incredible events take place.
Firstly, the UK's suicidal dive into a glorious past that never existed continues apace. All to appease 50 or so unhinged Tory MPs, UKIP, a few yobbo news editors, and several people are going to die of old age soon anyway.
Unilever announce they're moving their headquarters out of the UK - not Brexit. Prices are up - not Brexit. Businesses being forced to sign non-disclosure agreements about border arrangements - taking back control.

It's all fine, it's all great.

(THREAD) BREAKING: In an extraordinary move, Sen. Feinstein (D-CA) has *unilaterally* released the transcript of Fusion GPS's testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

What follows is a live-read of the transcript by a former criminal defense attorney. Hope you'll share.
1/ First, here's a link to the transcript, which is on Senator Feinstein's government website:
2/ This testimony is from August 22, 2017.

It's not the only testimony Glenn Simpson (Fusion GPS) has given before Congress. The Republicans did not want Americans to see this testimony; after publicly saying he'd vote to release it, Sen. Grassley (R-IA) reneged on his promise.
