@upickahandle How the sick smear got started:

zelo-street.blogspot.com/2018/01/starme…
@upickahandle It’s especially unfair because Starmer’s actual record as DPP in changing the culture around prosecuting sexual assault cases was good - introducing a presumption of belief for victims, mandatory reporting of CA cases, transparency about prosecuting etc.

My 3rd thread on who else might be involved with the Laurence Fox Party.

Some clues are in the first follows of its new Twitter feed.

My guess is Reclaim will have its first Parliamentarian as soon as the party officially launches in November:

Lady Claire Regina Fox

(thread) Image
First, the first 14 follows:

Looza
Darren Grimes
Peter Whittle
Titania McGrath
Claire Fox
Calvin Robinson

Journals/ists:
Spiked
The Critic
The Epoch Times
Christopher Hope (Telegraph)
Tim Shipman (Sunday Times)
Harry Cole (Sun)
Tim Montgomery
Julia Hartley-Brewer (talkRADIO)
This thread is going to concentrate on these particular first follows: ImageImageImage

I’ve been looking at some of the people behind Lozza ‘Loser’ Fox & his new party.

The 1st thread looked at his PR company of mostly ex-Telegraph staffers, to show that they - not he - should be taken seriously

But this 2nd one is a comic tale

A rom-com even

Read on:

After all, throw a party for a clown, expect a circus.

Or in this case, Darren Selkus.

Former soldier, businessman, & failed Brexit Party candidate.

A man it’s hard to take seriously. Image
He blew his cover when he posted the privacy policy on the new Looza Party website, (hat-tip to Guido).

So, we *know* Darren helped build the site.

But if the first thread was about serious professionals, Dazza is very much the comic amateur... Image

We laugh at Lozza ‘Loser’ Fox but we’ll have to take this seriously, I’m afraid.

Not him. Those behind him.

He’s just a figurehead.

They have the cash - £5 million up front - and a plan.

The expertise, experience & contacts too.

But who are they?

Read on & pls RT

1 of 10/

Some are trying to use sex assault victims to criticise Keir Starmer.

In fact he’s been their champion.

2012

After 1st convictions in the Rochdale scandal as DPP he orders:

“Radical changes to the way sex abuse victims are dealt with”

telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/la…
2/
March 2013

Learning from the failings of Rochdale, Savile & Warboys, he changes CPS rules.

Issuing “guidelines making clear that we had to abandon the notion of the “model” victim and do justice for real victims”

news.sky.com/story/savile-n…
3/
He keeps going.

July 2013

Polly Neate, Women’s Aid:
He’s been a "powerful force for change over the past five years"

Liz Kelly, co-chair, End Violence against Women coalition:
"I hugely appreciate what has been done at the CPS under his watch.”

1./

In 2018, some on the right disgracefully tried to smear Keir Starmer, then Shadow Brexit Secretary, using the Warboys case. They were wrong and had to retract.

Sadly, some on the left are now repeating those old smears to try to score points today.

Please read & RT
2./

It’s a distressing, emotive case:

An overview:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Worb…

The police were found guilty of bungling the initial investigation, refusing to believe those reporting assault. The police appealed, unsuccessfully, supported by then Home Secretaries May and Rudd: Image
3./
Warboys was finally arrested & in April 2008 was charged with 23 offences. He was convicted of 19 the following March.

Starmer only became DPP in Nov 2008.

Here, the CPS explains the prosecuting decisions & makes clear he had no involvement in them:
