I wrote this in Nov 2017. Days after FBI revealed multiple strands of Trump-Russia investigation ran through London & I pulled them apart further. It was also when the attacks against me began in earnest. From Cambridge Analytica, LeaveEU & Russian govt 1/ theguardian.com/politics/2017/…
Nov 17 is when it all suddenly got real. That first FBI indictment revealed it was unpicking a whole web of relationships between the Trump campaign & Kremlin. To people who not only had contacts in the UK. But with actual ministers in the govt. 2/
The govt refused to answer any questions about its own ministers connections to figures FBI was investigating. One week previously, Johnson was asked if he'd seen any sign of foreign interference. "Nyet," he said. There are multiple reasons that we know this can't be true. 3/
This all happened in summer of 2016. We know these contacts with Trump campaign & Kremlin proxies were taking place in London. We know Wikileaks received material from Russian Intelligence & threw bomb into US election. And who was foreign secretary at the time? Boris Johnson

There are sound reasons to criticise BBC. We’re all pissed off with it over something! But our valid critiques are being weaponised by the enemies of democracy.
The BBC is a crucial firewall in a moment of unprecedented danger. Why do you think Russia is joining in?! 3/

Meet Nadia Sass.
This is the wife of the man who bribed Nathan Gill.
Today @thenerve_news reveals how she was a key part of the Kremlin operation that targeted not just Gill but at least 2 other MEPs and a member of the House of Lords.
In Israel, Ellison’s Oracle partners with Rafael Systems whose weapons are being used in the Gaza genocide & implicated in the deaths of British aid workers.
The targeting & killing of journalists in Gaza & the failure of the media to show collective solidarity & to take collective action is…incomprehensible.
I feel a such profound sense of shame & failure. It’s not just the death of journalists. It’s the death of journalism. 1/
This is Mariam Abu Daka, one of 3 journalists killed in latest strike, warning that journalists are being deliberately targeted & killed.
‘The Israeli occupation targets journalists because they tell the truth’
She calls for urgent international protection. It did not come. 2/
It is not that there has not been efforts to mobilise a collective response by press freedom orgs, including @RSF_inter, but there has also been silence , denial & cowardice from the prestige legacy outlets.
There’s a reason trust in all media is plummeting.
