🚨BREAKING 🚨

🚨BREAKING 🚨

Britain has named and charged a third Russian military intelligence officer over the Salisbury spy poisonings, in a significant development that will enrage Russia.

Russian interference threatens British democracy. Despite this, the Uk government has refused to take the unequivocal recommendations of parliament's own Intelligence and Security Committee that it says are essential to protect our national security.

Along with a bipartisan coalition of MPs we have challenged this decision in court
leighday.co.uk/latest-updates…
Last June, we went to the High Court in an unprecedented case: the first time MPs have ever sought to legally challenge a PM on grounds of national security.

Our legal challenge was rejected
independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
But we won't stop. Please help funding our legal action against Boris Johnson's government for failure to investigate foreign state interference in the UK's democratic process.

🙏🙏🙏

Do you have any burning question on Russian interference in Uk politics and on why the Uk government delayed the publication of the #RussianReport?

Ask Boris!
With your support to our appeal to the High Court decision, we can still get much needed answers on the ongoing Russian interference in British politics.

As the Parliamentary Intelligence and Security Committee made clear, national security is at stake

NEW: 🚨Femi fact checks PMQs🚨

Honestly @DominicRaab, if you’re going to spin *exactly the same lie* about the G7 as Johnson did, don’t do it while @Femi_Sorry is watching.

It’s another brutal fact check for @allthecitizens by the great @Femi_Sorry
@DominicRaab @Femi_Sorry As hinted by @Femi_Sorry, the Road Haulage Association is calling for action as "the shortage of HGV drivers in the UK is at crisis point, and we’re urging you to use this quick tool to write directly to your MP to raise the issue".

@DominicRaab @Femi_Sorry The shortage of lorry drivers in one of the contributing factors to the risk of permanent food shortages the @Foodanddrinkfed has warned about

NEW: 🚨Femi Fact Checks PMQs🚨

Did you see Boris Johnson at today’s PMQs? Well, here he is again, this time with added FACTS.

A masterclass in debunking from the brilliant @Femi_Sorry for @allthecitizens

Is the Secretary for Work and Pensions Thérèse Coffey unaware that lots of people on #UniversalCredit already work themselves to the bone and still can't make ends meet?
And that it actually would take up to 9 extra working hours for #UniversalCredit claimants to recoup their £20-a-week benefit cut? And that this cut is predicted to plunge half a million more people into poverty, including 200,000 children?

🚨BREAKING:

Department of Health (test & trace) rush to replace Adult Social Care dashboard software run by controversial US firm Palantir. After only using it for one year, they are shifting to an in-house model developed by BAE Systems.
THREAD:
A newly published contract from DHSC (T&T) reveals that, after only having installed the American analytical firm’s software in 2020, the department is now spending £100k to migrate an entirely new data-analytics platform designed to process Covid-19 data.
contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/bc37a8e…
The dashboard itself, part of Palantir’s larger Covid-19 data-store work within the NHS, is aimed at combining “data from the Capacity Tracker and other sources, allowing critical data to be viewed in real time, at national, regional, and local levels”

🚨EXCLUSIVE:

More than a quarter of ‘elite’ Conservative Party donors (giving a minimum of £100,000 in a single donation) have been given a title or honour, raising fresh concerns of a ‘cash for honours’ scandal at the heart of government - from @BylineBITE and @AllTheCitizens
Of the Tory party’s 20 biggest donors since 2010 – individuals donating more than £1.5 million – 11 (55%) hold some form of honour. 10 were awarded these in the last decade

Of 259 donors who gave £100,000+ (where info is available), 67 (26%) hold an honour, title or peerage.
Also, almost all of the 67 decorated donors (96% or 64) were given their titles or honours by the Tories in the last decade - either through New Year, Birthday or Prime Minister’s Resignation Honours or made a life peer by the leader of the Conservative Party.
