To help those seeking to make sense of the #FordeReport, here are some *open source* LinkedIn screenshots of the work timeline for former Labour Party GLU Head Sam Matthews (formerly of Margaret Hodge's Royal Holloway University) @Standup4Labour
P.S. I've got screenies of the threatening facebook messages last decade, from your friend - so no more of that silliness please. 👍🏻

A data system that perhaps held.... members & supporters data for leaflet printing? In 2015? Yet there was no central system according to the #FordeReport? Probably completely irrelevant... 😂

🧵1/9 On today's #NOTPMQs show we covered the growing threat of a leadership challenge from #WesStreeting against #KeirStarmer. Here's the small (for us) thread on it...
🧵2/9 Why has the #LabourParty right abandoned Starmer in favour of Streeting?
It's a legitimate question - whose ice cream (donor support) will melt first?
🧵3/9 The Financial Times piece that kicked off the race... "Is Wes Streeting the saviour Labour desperately needs?"
It could be re-translated "Rich donors around Canary Wharf, please send money and nudes."
Did you know the @TheGrayzoneNews story about #PaulMason is tied to the #LabourParty? Here is a thread that explores the anti-left / abusive outfit Labour have outsourced lots of former staffers work to: #ValentProjects
🧵1/21
The report by @KitKlarenberg displays secret communications between #PaulMason and various intelligence community wonks, in a coordinated effort to smear indy media, and 'take down the left' - Corbynites especially. Because apparently, 'anti-imperialism' is BAD. 🤷🏻♂️🤡
🧵2/21
Mixing deplatforming, "full nuclear legal" (we've had a taste of that from the #LabourParty), and various other abusive and dehumanising techniques, this 'intel contractor' was happily working with #PaulMason and others to put leftists at risk.
2) Behind Labour received many requests to look at Teddy Ryan, because of his central role in the #ItWasAScam hostile takeover of the Labour Party. Actioned with cash, logistical support, direction and encouragement from the right wing of the U.S. Democrat Party... shocking!
3) Ryan works as the South East Regional Director, out of their London-based office (yes we thought that was sad as well), after working underneath his partner Hollie Ridley in the East Of England Region. He makes MANY lofty claims about his achievements on his public profile.
2) Before we dive in, there has been an important change in the structure of the Labour Party unnoticed by most. This has centralised the control of party regions, by making regional directors mere proxies of the General Secretary David Evans.
3) Regional Boards, which before had oversight power over regional staff, have been done away with in favour of practically toothless "Regional Executive Committees" or REC's.
