THREAD: Interesting Peter Jukes now claims to have voted Labour in 2019. He dedicated not insignificant time and energy to propounding nonsense conspiracy theories about how Jeremy Cobryn was in league with the Russians for years prior (and afterwards). ImageImageImageImage
Of course, this was also core objective of #IntegrityInitiative's black propaganda operations. Oddly, after files leaked online, Jukes dedicated significant time and energy to dismissing significance of scandal. Despite claiming to have never heard of the organisation prior. ImageImageImageImage
Jukes and Byline have taken lead in framing Boris Johnson as Russian agent (despite vast arms shipments to Ukraine). We know chief of MI6's Counter Disinformation and Media Development unit, Andy Pryce, views the Tories as Russian inspired and advocates tackling them as such... ImageImage
CDMD implementing unit behind #IntegrityInitiative. Pryce frequently emailed journalists talking points related to issues of interest to organisation. Such as Skripal affair. Which his friend Paul Mason took the lead in urging people to accept the official narrative "on trust." ImageImage

THREAD: In light of Amnesty confirming what's long-been clear - Ukrainian forces are basing themselves and weapons systems in residential areas, including schools and hospitals, thus endangering civilians - it's important to revisit the March 9th Mariupol hospital incident. ImageImage
This was universally reported in the Western media as a deliberate Russian airstrike on a maternity hospital, conducted for genocidal purposes. NPR dubbed such strikes "a terrible wartime tradition" for Moscow. But there was just one problem... ImageImageImage
Weeks later, a video interview with Mariana Vishegirskaya, the pregnant woman photographed leaving the hospital bloodied and dazed, began circulating. In it, she revealed the hospital was almost completely taken over by soldiers. And she flatly denied there'd been an airstrike. Image

There are strong grounds to believe @PaulMasonNews' parliamentary ambitions are being managed by, or at least coordinated with, his British intelligence contact. His attacks on Corbyn, his supporters and @STWuk certainly are.

thegrayzone.com/2022/07/16/pau…
In April, @PaulMasonNews was invited to, and attended, a peace conference arranged by @Podemos. He provided on-the-ground reports on proceedings to his "friend" in British intelligence, boasting of having "successfully cauterised" Corbyn within the Labour party.
It's in this context @PaulMasonNews so aggressively attempting to be a prominent public champion of RMT comes off as sinister rather than just desperate opportunism. What was his actual objective here?

Hey @paulmasonnews, on April 9th you emailed your British intelligence contact asking "how can we fight back?" in response to a @MintPressNews article exposing Kyiv Independent's Western intelligence cutout funding. What action did you want/expect to be taken against them? Image
Problematically for Paul's characterization of MintPress as "Putin proxy", several of its contributors have condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine - including @AlanRMacLeod, who wrote the offending article. He needed to look no further than the article itself for evidence of this ImageImage
His contact, Andy Pryce, has boasted to Paul of how he was behind YouTube's ban on Russian media in the UK, and how "there is something we can do" about private channels/groups on WhatsApp. So clearly PM had good reason to believe something would be done about MintPress too... ImageImage

THREAD: Seeing quite a lot of people reporting - often with surprise as they've never interacted before - that disgraced former DHS 'disinfo expert' Nina Jankowicz has blocked them. It would be unsurprising if Amil Khan of Valent Projects gave her a blacklist to work from.
In wake of @MaxBlumenthal and I exposing how Khan and @PaulMasonNews conspired to get The Grayzone deplatformed, he took to Twitter to declare article had primarily been shared by "coordinated networks" of bots and trolls, and that information on these had been passed on...
These charges completely false. Khan was even repeatedly challenged on this nonsense by a supporter of his (in since deleted tweets). Assumed this to be a copium-inspired lie, but no - he truly believed this. And tens of thousands of people will have been put on lists as a result

About three years ago Loki Nash and I were trying to arrange legal (and other) assistance for several women who could testify to @NickCohen4's sexually abusive tendencies. We were told by multiple sources that The Guardian explicitly warned new female employees about him.
The picture that emerged from the women we spoke to - who didn't always know or even know of each other - was one of someone completely insulated from repercussions thanks to his peers, the institution behind him, and fear among victims that speaking out would ruin their careers.
One had been openly told by a *friendly* coworker that they were likely to never work in journalism again if they went to management, or even the police. "Literally everyone knows about it, but nothing ever happens," they reportedly said.

Hey @Guardian, can I ask if you sought comment from @AaronJMate before you reiterated unquestioningly the claims of an extremely dubious 'study' produced by an extremely dubious set of self-interested organizations? And why did you change the HL so quickly? Bit libelous?
Interestingly, Eliot Higgins of Bellingcat tweeted out the article under its original headline, then promptly deleted it after it was changed. Almost like the report's release is part of a secretly coordinated campaign targeting @TheGrayzoneNews! Who could be behind it, I wonder?
And oh look, here's irredeemable Peter Jukes using this slanderous garbage to deter British left from Aaron's award-winning reporting. He has previously - and ludicrously - claimed anyone sharing Grayzone's work on Paul Mason is "colluding with Russian sponsored info warfare."
