Absolutely intriguing excerpt from Guardian coverage of Cadwalladr/Banks trial. She claims to have "intelligence files from organisation contracted to undertake work countering Russian disinformation in Europe on behalf of a government agency." That would be #IntegrityInitiative.
She appears in their files, of course. When challenged, she claims she merely spoke at event organisation convened. Also used opportunity to further baseless smears/conspiracy theories about @WikiLeaks + Julian Assange colluding with the Kremlin.
It's in this context that her false claims that #IntegrityInitiative "also pushed attacks on the government and the Conservatives", not just Corbyn, become super interesting. This can't have just been her being characteristically foolish or ignorant...
Super interesting too Carole's good friend Peter Jukes (liar, fantasist, Magnitsky fraud endorser and vexatious little man) fought the suggestion #IntegrityInitiative targeted Corbyn so aggressively while also claiming to have no links to org or even have heard about it before...
Worth reinforcing #IntegrityInitiative "intelligence files" are invariably baseless lies from start to finish. One such document related to Catalan referendum falsely framed Julian Assange and independence movement as Russian agents on *zero* evidence.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that II staffer (and potential MI5 operative) Euan Grant specifically names Banks as a target in one document. And outlined a proposal for smearing individuals and organisations as in receipt of Russian funding.

🧵: As I go over some material strongly suggesting Britain was secretly aiding HTS for years prior to their seizure of Damascus, I'm reminded of how often MI6 programs indirectly seem to assist ISIS. It's really quite amazing how frequently this has happened, by total accident.
In 2017, the Foreign Office decided it'd be a perfect time to secretly run a psychological warfare campaign to deter Afghans from joining the Taliban, right when the Taliban was engaged in a bitter civil war against ISIS-K. I wonder what prompted this 🧐

thecradle.co/articles/bad-t…
Funnily enough, in leaked docs related to the effort, it is repeatedly acknowledged by the MI6 cutout running it Afghanistan's puppet government had zero legitimacy or power outside Kabul itself. Occupation officials and the media weren't publicly saying that in 2017, were they? Image

Jesus Christ, after talking and acting insanely hawkish on China for years, the UK is now abruptly backtracking completely, and "seeking closer ties." Could this be in any way related to Trump suddenly taking an extremely dovish stance and calling Xi his "friend"? I wonder... Image
Fascinating report published in January by British intel-linked Kings College found literally almost *all* media reporting on China in the UK is deeply negative and misleading, therefore making rational discussion about Beijing impossible.

I know many people in the UK - including some who identify as leftists - inebriated by anti-Beijing kool aid and thus rabid CPC haters, to the point of outright Sinophobia. If London is seeking to change tack now...it's going to be a problem manufacturing public consent for that.

🧵: A key reason for the Romania coup was Calin Georgescu talked *a lot* about anti-Russia sanctions causing more harm to the sanctioners. Western omerta on this elemental fact is extraordinary. Every establishment pillar is committed to a conspiracy of silence on the issue.
Over past 18 months, there have been several mainstream articles on Germany's economic woes. Not all mention higher energy prices post-February 2022, but those that do use all manner of verbal gymnasm and distancing language to avoid acknowledging this is self-inflicted. Image
Image
Germany's AfD committed to ending sanctions on Russia, and faces getting banned. Fico in Slovakia has stood firm on the issue, and got shot. Elsewhere, no mainstream politician or party or government in EU has acknowledged the reality, while their industries crash and burn.

🧵: Absolutely shocking, brazen move, executed as 'wrong' candidate was gonna win. But unsurprising. Calin Georgescu stood on explicit anti-war, anti-sanctions platform and garnered widespread support in Romania and diaspora circles. His victory simply couldn't be permitted. Image
Romania very interesting case as population predominantly eastern-leaning but EU/US has invested *vast* resources in turning the country pro-West, and NATO has grand plans for missile/base expansion there. So of course any threat to those ambitions must be neutralised.
Said it before, will say again - we are living in an age of shameless tyranny. The West is no longer concerned about negative optics of draconian, undemocratic, illiberal actions like this, and don't even bother concealing them. Very, very dark time we're living in. What's next?

🧵: I surmise key reason Brits can't give up on proxy war is they are terrified of the scale of their involvement, and huge responsibility for Ukraine's destruction, being exposed publicly. All of Kiev's most embarrassing military blunders were British operations. Let's dive in.
As I've written about extensively, Kursk was British planned, armed, directed, trained op. This was publicly admitted. Was supposed to normalise overt British involvement in the proxy war, in the hope Germans and Americans would follow suit. That failed.

kitklarenberg.com/p/britains-kur…
Kursk will likely in future be considered one of the biggest military blunders in modern history. So too will Krynky, a lunatic suicide mission that saw wave after wave of ill-equipped Ukrainians get killed under relentless Russian fire, to seize a village. They failed. Image

🧵: In May 2022, BBC broadcast a deeply libelous and misleading "documentary" - Ukraine: The Disinformation War - slandering academics @jrschlosberg and @Tim_Hayward_ and anyone questioning what happened in Bucha as Kremlin pawns. Let's dive into why this is highly significant. Image
The program, fronted by since-fired @chloehadj-iMI6eou, and starring spooky @mariannaspring and @PaulMasonNews, stated anyone questioning Russian culpability for purported war crimes in the Ukraine proxy war - even if unintentionally - was serving Kremlin "disinfo" narratives. Image
@chloehadj @mariannaspring @paulmasonnews British intelligence asset @PaulMasonNews was at this point working overtime,to smear, censor and deplatform anyone questioning Bucha or opposing arming Ukraine - including @TheGrayzoneNews. The BBC "documentary" provided him with an international platform to do so. Image
