The UK’s intelligence agencies were aware that Donald Trump may have been compromised by the Kremlin but Theresa May’s Gov – including then-foreign secretary Boris Johnson – chose not to pursue the matter for fear of offending the US president, a new book claims.

They knew.

They knew.

The politicians refused to act. As they are now #RussianReport
Simpson said Russian influence had wholly “compromised” the British political establishment. “There is a wilful blindness and determination to look the other way. ....
.......No-one in power wants to have that conversation,” he warned.”

This story links into a much wider story involving corruption both within and outwith Malta.

I shall attach a thread from last December. And I shall also attach a thread from @Turloughc who has tracked associations of people within the story with Farage.
Here is my thread on an interview towards the end of last year.
And here is @Turloughc thread.

I was interested to discover that Farage’s/EDFF aide, Kevin Ellul-Bonici, who was thought to be a Russian asset in promoting literature from the Russian Embassy in the EU Parliament, had been an Inspector in the Maltese Economic Crimes Unit.

“
Hill had been the top Russia expert in the White House, a senior director of the national security council (NSC), but the president seems to have been only vaguely aware of her importance, mistaking her early on for a secretary. “

Of course he did.

And a very handy little clip via the excellent @shady_inf0 spelling out the difference between Trump’s attorney, Giuliani and HIS interventions in Ukraine issue compared to Bush and Obama’s attornies who she did not even know

My my.

As if we have not been blessed enough with Royal Family benefits this week with Prince Andrew, now we seee unfold before us the “benefits” of the Toey Party having Camilla Parker Bowles’ nephew, Ben Elliott as Tory Party co-chair and fundraiser.

Buy elections too.
A bit more about Ben Elliott here.

But, apart from the Quintessential Group of companies he also owns Hawthorne Associates that helped Lord Barker, Chair of Deripaska’s EN+, get the EN/Deripaska Mueller sanctions lifted in the USA.

How proud they all just be.
Just seen this. The gap is even bigger than the article and thread suggest because the Tories ALSO received c £4mill in under the limit small donations in the same period Labour received £1m.

Today is possibly .@theresa_may's last day as PM, if .@BorisJohnson can command a majority (which is in some doubt...)

So it's a great opportunity to look back at some of the *highlights* of Mrs May's premiership in memes👇
13 JUL 2016: May was appointed as PM and named her Cabinet shortly thereafter, surprising many by giving 3 of the top #Brexit-related jobs to arch-brexiters Boris Johnson, David Davis & Liam Fox. Sheer folly, or genius in making them own what they'd sold? Sadly, the former😢
/1.
5 OCT 2016: With such a narrow result, the country could be forgiven for expecting May to propose a consensual solution, as Norway PM Erna Solberg had done in a similar situation. Most Remainers would've accepted #Norway.

May's #CitizensOfNowhere speech crushed all hope.

A shallow dive into the infinite supply of appallingly offensive, sexist and racist remarks made by Boris Johnson. This deserves a whole lotta love, so you know what to do... RT, RT, RT!
