Omg I need to show you something. 🧵

BBC QT plants.

This week it’s “The Lady in Yellow” - look at Alastair Campbell retweeting full-time content creator Farrukh (who’s blocked me). Image
We’ve also had “The Man in Red” - see how Farrukh prepares the material for retweets by people like Campbell and Carol Vorderman Image
“The Lady in Pink” Image

FarageRiots is a hashtag that leads back to Carol Vorderman, Otto English, Reform Party Exposed UK and Blade of The Sun.
It’s not an organic hashtag. Everyone was clearly told to use it. Bot and propaganda accounts - like this one - also fired with it:
You were meant to think that everyone in the UK was suddenly tweeting FarageRiots when it was actually a small group of activists creating an artificial uproar.

By the way, Zoe Gardner is a product of The New Economy Organisers Network (NEON), which trains young people to be spokespeople for "social justice" movements.

NEON is funded by Lankelly Chase, ECF, Open Society Foundation, Urban Movement Innovation, William and Flora Hewlett, Polden Puckham, Partners for a New Economy, Oak, Friends Provident, JRCT, Unbound Philanthropy, Trust for London, Paul Hamlyn, The Blagrave Trust, amongst others.

Open Society Foundation = George Soros
Polden Puckham and Friends Provident = Quaker foundations
William and Flora Hewlett = fund Sadiq Khan's C40 Cities and More in Common (which is also funded by Soros)
Paul Hamlyn Foundation receives TAXPAYER funding and supports open borders
Unbound is a US, very wealthy funder that promotes open borders

There's a lot of cross-pollination between these groups, in terms of funding.

Here's Gardner in 2022 - part of "the newest freshly-trained cohort of the Spokesperson Network"Image
Another star pupil of NEON is Grace Blakeley: Image

Earlier this week Steve Bray tweeted the “Stop Reform” tactical voting site promoted by Carol Vorderman and her shill network.

The shill network includes Mike Galsworthy, founder of Scientists4EU and Chair of the European Movement - both of which are Soros funded.

In fact, Soros has given MILLIONS to The European Movement, which has an international and UK wing. opensocietyfoundations.org/grants/past?fi…

Bray repeatedly tweets “SODEM” - which stands for “Stand of Defiance European Movement”.

Ergo, Bray is part of the Carol Vorderman/ Galsworthy/ Movement Forward network.

PS. Caroline Lucas and Dominic Grieve run The European Movement, and the group has access to Parliament (The APPG on Europe).Image

Bray is very much in the club Image
EU shilling from Bray’s BFF Jemma Forte

Of course she had to link to EU mega shill Mike Galsworthy Image

Thread time 🧵

This man is called Josh Russell, and he's no stranger to tactical voting - as well as starting and dissolving companies on Companies House.
Here's Russell in 2023, with the caption "Getting organised" and some familiar faces:

Carol Vorderman likes Russell SO much that she named him in her book "Now What?"

She writes “‘Stop The Tories’ was our first adventure, I’m sure we will have many more”... Image
