One month in and there's no surprises from the campaign director of the group under a police investigation; a man in contempt of parliament who has disrupted the status quo, initiated the digital lies and is preparing to wrong-foot and out-think the impotent Remain faction.
Johnson (Cummings) seeks legal guidance from attorney general Geoffrey Cox on a five-week prorogation to facilitate Brexit - and the initial legal guidance given is that shutting parliament may well be possible unless (distr)action is taken in the courts. theguardian.com/politics/2019/…
Demos and petitions won't stop this attack on our democracy and without any form of cohesive opposition it will be up to others to step-up and speak-out to deliver the creative destructionism that will stop the criminals in their tracks whilst the politicians fiddle.
Now ask yourself, why are billionaire hedge fund managers once again so keen to finance the Tories in a general election designed to deliver a devastating Brexit?

Nominated for peerages in Liz Truss’s resignation honours list, Matthew Elliot, Mark Littlewood, Jon Moynihan and Ruth Porter, are all connected to the nexus of opaquely funded right-wing lobby groups emanating like Japanese knotweed from 55 Tufton Street.

Unfamiliar with the work of Matthew Elliott? Here is the brazen CEO of Vote Leave, which, incidentally, was originally based at 55 Tufton St.
Unfamiliar with the work of Mark Littlewood? Here is the brazen Director General of the Institute of Economic Affairs, a lobby group masquerading as a charity, who are based just around the corner from 55 Tufton St.

Perfectly normal - "Truss’s most senior adviser, Mark Fullbrook, has been interviewed by FBI agents about an alleged criminal plot to bribe an American politician and influence a US election." thetimes.co.uk/article/no-10-…
Prosecutors have said those responsible for the alleged conspiracy to subvert the democracy of Puerto Rico “struck a blow to the heart of our democracy and eroded the confidence of our citizens in their institutions of governance”.
Strangely echoing our own laws that "ensure fairness, confidence and legitimacy at electoral events" - the same laws that both Vote Leave and LeaveEU broke, the same laws that this Tory government have been attempting to desecrate ever since the 2016 EU referendum.

As the sixth anniversary of the UK’s vote to leave the EU approaches and Jacob Rees-Mogg scrambles to invent imaginary Brexit benefits, economists begin to quantify the immense damage caused by a small group of well funded electoral lawbreakers.

“Would I like to be in a better place on Brexit?” asked one pro-Brexit member of Johnson's cabinet. “Yes, absolutely. But we’ve got to find a way of doing it without it looking like we’re running up the white flag and we’re compromising on sovereignty.” 🤦‍♀️
"Using the beginning of 2021, economists have shown how the UK’s trade performance compares with those of other countries before and after the TCA’s imposition. The results have been increasingly ugly."

"Banks is suing not the Observer, but Cadwalladr in person over one sentence in a TED Talk in April 2019 where she said: “And I’m not even going to go into the lies that Arron Banks has told about his covert relationship with the Russian government.” bylinetimes.com/2022/01/17/arr…
Remarkable that Banks' ghost writer, Isabel Oakeshott, had inferred exactly the same in 2018 when she wrote in The Times, "In Arron Banks and Andy Wigmore the Kremlin had spotted men it could use. Then they vaulted to the heart of western politics." thetimes.co.uk/article/a-clas…
The Brexit backing, Murdoch owned Times appeared to infer this relationship on other occasions too - "Rise of Brexit’s bad boys was fuelled by Stalin’s vodka. Emails show the Ukip donor Arron Banks and his sidekick Andy Wigmore got a fair wind from Russia"

Dear .@CommonsSpeaker here is .@Keir_Starmer asking a straightforward question to which .@BorisJohnson responds with a straightforward lie. Is there anything further you need to put an end to this farce?
WATCH the full exchange from 28th April 2021 that proves the liar has absolutely no understanding of 'when you're in a hole stop digging'
And the record from Hansard - hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2021-0…
