Ok. Serious question. A lot of people are, I'm sure, fed up with me & others banging on & on about Brexit crimes & foreign interference. While almost every other British news org ignores it. Almost all politicians. Almost all political journalists. So...what if it is Watergate?
Theresa May is clearly covering something up here. What? What will we find out in 2, 5, 10 years' time?
Clarification! This wasn't a fishing-for-support sort of a tweet (though thank you). It was a 'how can we we reframe this story so that people understand we are witnessing - and indeed participating in - a political cover-up of potentially historic proportions'. Thoughts? Ideas?

These docs are pretty extraordinary. The Cambridge Analytica/Facebook scandal always smelled like a cover-up. But now it looks one too. Washington DC Attorney General publishes redacted docs from inside Facebook that shows the official timeline is a crock of shit
If this seems like a complicated story, it isn't. Do you remember the weird silence from Facebook that followed publication of Cambridge Analytica story? The 4 days before Zuck emerged? The story he told then & later to Congress is now in serious dispute

Late last night Facebook changed its story on Cambridge Analytica. Again. Press office came up with whole new line. Now saying there was *another* Cambridge Analytica security alert. Which, after 3 years of denials, they only just thought to mention..

Another big day in the life & times of Cambridge Analytica. @profcarroll in High Court trying once again to get to the bottom of the ‘toxic data swamp’. He’s asking for administrators to be dismissed, claiming much too close to CA’s new zombie, Emerdata
‘Why did Cambridge Analytica sell one of its companies SCL insight to an SCL director days before it went bankrupt?’ asks @profcarroll’s QC
Here’s @profcarroll who Cambridge Analytica’s administrators painted as a ‘lone creditor’ in court today. They’re trying to make you into the crazy cat man of dodgy data, I say. Exactly, he said. What blows theory, of course, is that FBI & US Congress is seeking exact same info

Predictably, the MI6 ran & NATO funded warmongering propaganda operation "Integrity Initiative" blames the anonymous hack of their servers on "Muh Russia."

#PropagandaWars
#IntegrityInitiative
#RussiaGate
#SpyGate
Link to the article posted by @Avery1776 attempts to make the case that the GRU hacked Integrity Initiative and leaked their findings.

The Institute of Statecraft is the HQ for Integrity Initiative. The co-founder has no proof it was Russia but claims specifically the GRU was behind the hack.

So..

"Muh Russia" again.

Sir Ivan Rogers has crashed the Policy Scotland website with his 11,052 word #Brexit speech.

The link is below, but in the interim, here are some excerpts and some commentary - since, as you'd expect, it gives a shrewd account of where #Brexit is now/1

policyscotland.gla.ac.uk/blog-sir-ivan-…
First point is this speech is a plague on both houses - remainers and brexiteers - and a call for analysis based on what is possible, not on wishful thinking.

That will always lead to charges of 'defeatism', but while Rogers may be an Eeyore, he knows too much to be ignored /2
First substantive point. There has been a rise in 'no deal' rhetoric again - see @FraserNelson column for a synthesis of these renewed threats here

...But Rogers isn't buying.../3

Take back Control?

A brief thread about the big lie told to working class voters.

There has always been a strong latent undercurrent of racism in U.K. I grew up in a working class family where the gags of Davidson & Manning about black & Indian stereotypes were accepted.
Other races were regarded in that community as inferior. Sometimes tolerated, IF they behaved like us, even welcomed, but never on an equal footing. You still hear it in pubs and football terraces, it never went away.
For me, it was Tony Blair who finally excised the racist DNA I carried. For years, I exaggerated my “Toryness” - the party I had adopted against all family tradition because it stood for getting ahead. I barked about the EU, with its feeble minded “foreign” thinking.

I guess it’s time to take a look at Pueblo Sin Fronteras. If you think the Honduran march to America is a grassroots movement, hold on to your hat.
This caravan was deliberately planned by Pueblo Sin Fronteras. pueblosinfronteras.org/viacrucis.html Their expressed goal is to break down borders and assist “refugees” in moving from country to country.
“Our dream is to build solidarity bridges among peoples and turndown border walls imposed by greed.” Notice how it’s greedy to want to protect your own country from being flooded with poor, illiterate immigrants with no visible means of support.

1) Megathread - Yes, the #Brexit vote is illegitimate, and it's not elitist to say so

Simply put, a vote that is based on misconceptions and illusions but which *cannot* be reversed is an affront to democracy therefore the very concept of the referendum is illegitimate
2) So why was the #Brexit vote illegitimate? Well, broadly speaking:
1) The Brexit we "voted for" ends FoM, the ECJ & payments to EU
2) This will be severely damaging to the economy & jobs
3) If the public was asked today the same question but were told the above,Remain would win
3) Leave simply would not win if the costs of the #Brexit they promised were revealed honestly in a second referendum. The only way they could win is if these costs were obscured again
