We've updated our report to reflect that Paul Mason's intel compatriot/handler, Andy Pryce, is now UK Head of Public Diplomacy in the EU, and likely also serves in the Foreign Office’s newly-founded Counter Disinformation Unit. Why's this significant? 1/ thegrayzone.com/2022/06/13/pau…
Andy Pryce boasted to Mason of engineering YouTube’s recent ban on “Russian stuff.”
Further, UK ministers confirmed the CDU where Pryce is likely posted was responsible for the ban, and that it was “working closely” with social media platforms to remove "disinformation." 2/
So a very likely culprit behind YouTube's removal of my and @aaronjmate's livestream on #masongate in violation of its terms of use & policies on "bullying and harassment" is Andy Pryce and/or the UK Foreign Office's CDU.
Pure security state censorship.
Now we must ask why British media is so studiously ignoring one of the biggest media scandals of the year, in which a celebrity UK journalist has been caught plotting with the intel services to neutralize the left & launch a covert information war project.
YouTube has censored my & @aaronjmate factual discussion of Paul Mason’s secret collusion w/ the UK state to harass, bully & relentlessly deplatform” us.
It has done so on the basis of “harassment & bullying.”
We assume pressure came from the same elements seeking to ruin us.
Mason appears to have been coordinating with Andy Pryce of the UK FCDO's Counter Disinformation and Media Development unit, who helped shape the UK govt's response to Skripal.
And it appears to have been Andy Pryce who messaged Nina Jankowicz to discuss a plan to undermine/attack @Consortiumnews.
Which means a foreign intelligence official has sought to sabotage a US-based independent media outlet.
“it’s highly likely that Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelenskiy will Zoom in” to Bilderberg. “Just a few days beforehand, Zelenskiy met with a Bilderberg and US intelligence representative Alex Karp, who runs Palantir…” amp.theguardian.com/world/2022/jun…
Elected officials will hold “an ‘Energy Security and Sustainability’ talk with the CEOs of oil giants BP, Shell and Total. There’s also ‘Post Pandemic Health’ w/ the CEOs of Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline, who are locked away for days with Wall Street investors and no press scrutiny”
CIA director Burns will attend along w/ “head of the UK’s Government Communications Headquarters; the director of France’s external intelligence agency, DGSE; the leader of the US Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency; & Biden’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan”
I attempted to enter DC’s Mandarin Oriental Hotel, secret site of the Bilderberg Meeting.
CIA director Burns, NSC principals Sullivan & Campbell, Pfizer’s CEO Bourla, Peter Thiel, Kissinger & media elites are there to discuss Ukraine & global economy - entirely off the record.
As this man’s response to me makes clear, Bilderberg participants and security were barred from disclosing the location of the meeting and from quoting anyone during the off the record sessions.
The entire Mandarin Orient hotel was reserved and blocked off for the event.
US media is not covering the Bilderberg Meeting - except for @FreeManReporter, who confirmed its location and filmed participants including the Dutch PM & Adm. Mike Mullen.
Josh described the past two days and why the secretive de facto NATO meeting is so troubling.
Corporate/national security state censorship operation @NewsGuardRating is preparing to blacklist several anti-imperialist sites including @TheGrayzoneNews.
We will not grovel for approval from spooks that rated CNN highly & deny the US backed a coup in Ukraine.
My response:
The board of @NewsGuardRating is infested with war criminals, neocon propagandists, corporate lobbyists, spooks, and stenographers for power.
Newsguard's partners include the Pentagon, the Department of State, Microsoft and a bunch of US regime cutouts. newsguardtech.com/our-advisory-b…

If @realGonzaloLira has indeed been disappeared by Ukraine's SBU, he joins a long list of dissidents, leftists, human rights activists, and local officials kidnapped, tortured and even assassinated by Zelensky's death squads – and with Kiev's open support thegrayzone.com/2022/04/17/tra…
Vladimir Strok, the mayor of the Ukrainian city of Kreminna, was assassinated by an SBU death squad for urging negotiations with Russia.
@Gerashchenko_en, the advisor to Ukraine's Ministry of Internal Affairs, celebrated Strok's murder, writing, "There is one less traitor..."
Officials across Ukraine have been terrorized by the CIA-trained SBU security service
Gennady Matsegora, mayor of Kupyansk, released this video appealing to Zelensky for the release of his daughter, who was kidnapped and is held hostage by agents of the Ukraine's SBU
