👉 The US Air Force is expanding its deployment on the RAF’s #Cyprus base to 129 airmen, and is building a new 147-room installation costing $27m.

The US spy force, the 1st Expeditionary Reconnaissance Squadron, is permanently deployed at the British base, RAF Akrotiri.

👉 NEW -- Imran Khan: ‘West gains from corruption’

by @pmillerinfo

Western nations are benefiting from corruption across Asia, the ousted prime minister of #Pakistan has said in a brave new documentary: Behind Closed Doors

declassifieduk.org/imran-khan-wes…
👉 @ImranKhanPTI says of the UK authorities in the new film:

“They are benefiting from billions of dollars which flow into their properties and their businesses stolen from this country.”

He opens up about trying to stop “this plunder of the poor countries” by corrupt elites.
👉 The film also features a possible coup by BP in #Azerbaijan.

Emin Huseynov, a journalist who fled fearing for his life, says -- “The political opposition has always said BP was responsible for the [1993] coup, they brought Heydar Aliyev to power.”

👀 @DavidLammy's foreign policy speech is traditional Labour, positioning the party in government as the other half of the UK establishment. It offers no clear change to the Tories.

Short 🧵

labourlist.org/2023/01/we-wil…
👀"I will not hide my trans-Atlanticism", Lammy said, also quoting from Biden.

Labour has an "unshakeable commitment to NATO" and "would invest in AUKUS".

Under Labour, the UK would be "NATO’s leading European power".

Lammy is clearly ingratiating himself with Washington.
👀 In his speech, Lammy also referenced the "intelligence agencies" and reassured them of working in "partnership".

Last June Lammy was paid by the former head of MI6's company to attend the Bilderberg elite meeting in Washington.

🇬🇧🇺🇸 NEW: ‘The UK executive is wining and dining with people plotting the assassination of my husband’

@Stella_Assange, wife of the imprisoned WikiLeaks founder, sits down with Declassified's @kennardmatt for her most candid interview yet.👇
declassifieduk.org/uk-executive-i…
👉 Stella on British media: “If the UK press had reported fairly and critically about this case, would Julian be in Belmarsh prison today? I don’t believe so.”

👉 Stella on US extradition: "I’m convinced Julian cannot survive under the conditions the US will put him in."
👉 Stella on prison: “I think they keep him in Belmarsh because they can get away with it. It’s most effective way of silencing him.”

👉 Stella on UK judiciary: “These concepts of independence and fairness are only thing standing between us and a complete darkness of raw power."

How the ‘permanent government’ turned on Boris Johnson

By Richard @NortonTaylor

While many celebrate the PM’s resignation, we cannot ignore role played by unelected officials – often remainers – in bringing down Britain’s democratically elected leader.
declassifieduk.org/how-the-perman…
.@NortonTaylor: "The prime minister’s downfall was encouraged, even engineered, by parts of the Whitehall establishment. This included Britain’s top spooks – what I call the ‘permanent government’ and in the US they call the ‘deep state’."
.@NortonTaylor: "It was the decision of Lord McDonald, former permanent secretary at the Foreign Office, to publish a letter accusing No 10 of telling lies over what Johnson knew about the behaviour of his former deputy chief whip that was the last straw for hesitant ministers."
