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.

🧵THREAD🧵 (or how Israel wages war on foreign universities): On November 15th @DukeU's student government rescinded recognition of campus group Students Supporting Israel after it publicly targeted another student who said the move meant "my school supports settler colonialism."
The @DukeU SSI chapter (dozens at unis across US) posted screenshot of tweet to its Instagram and attacked her for it, in blatant breach of student government rules, then apologized publicly, then deleted apology, then appealed decision, which was upheld despite "pressure"...
In response, an ACT.IL WhatsApp group, which corrals users to oppose criticism of Israel online + directs them to like/comment on/share pro-Zionist material, yesterday directed its followers to sign a petition calling for SSI’s reinstatement.

This is absolutely shocking and needs to be shared far and wide. @FCDOGovUK must secure Steve's release from Mexico immediately.
It can only be considered terrifyingly serendipitous that this follows mere days after @jmcevoy_2 exposed how Foreign Office info warfare unit IRD spied on and attempted to discredit dissident journalists and publications in the 1970s - including @M_Star_Online.
John's writing gains an eerily prophetic character in light of what's now happened: "there is little reason to believe that such covert practices have ended."
Read. Learn. Be very, very angry. Write to your MP. Steve Sweeney must be freed NOW.

🧵THREAD🧵: First Steele memo to mention Russia hack of DNC July 19th 2016, three days before @wikileaks posted thousands of DNC emails on eve of Convention meeting. Intel based on info allegedly provided by Source E - @SergeiMillian. States WL used for "plausible deniability". ImageImageImage
Now, we know from #DanchenkoIndictment that he and @SergeiMillian never actually spoke, he was lying. Now, this could be eg of Steele dossier being based on news... ImageImageImageImage
As @aaronjmate has so incisively pointed out. Meme of Russian hacking already well-seeded by this point. WaPo and NYT reports in mid-June had warned of Russian hacking (although content rather different to what was released) and @wikileaks published many DNC emails already ImageImageImageImage
