This is head-in-the-sand stuff. No 'dark forces' in our societies? Not Rupert Murdoch? Tony Blair? The military-industrial complex? Corporate money in our politics? Our societies are full of dark forces. And they're there precisely because we're not supposed to talk about them
What about the 'dark forces' of an army general – he was given anonymity, of course - telling the establishment paper The Times that there would be a military coup before Corbyn was allowed near No 10? No 'dark forces' my foot!
What about ex-MI6 head Sir Richard Dearlove fabricating smears to paint Seumas Milne, Corbyn's main adviser, as a Kremlin asset? That not count as a 'dark force'? Arguments like this deserve only derision
What about the Integrity Initiative - you know, that shadowy UK government-funded black ops group, staffed by ex-military intel people, with ties to leading journalists? The one that the British press corps refuses to investigate. That not a 'dark force' enough for you?
