Since Nigel Farage has just sided with Russia again, and said “the idea Ukraine is going to win, frankly, is for the birds,” it’s time to re-ask those five questions he’s never asked about his support for Vladimir Putin 1/5

We now know that the former Russian Ambassador to London, Alexander Yakovenko, was part of a strategic plan to disrupt Western Alliances in the run-up to the invasion of eastern Ukraine and the illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014. Why did Farage lie about meeting him? 2/6 Image
How Could Farage Not Have Known About Arron Banks’ Multiple Visits to the Russian Embassy During the Brexit Campaign?

Banks donated £8m to Farage’s Leave EU campaign, funded a £4.4 million rented home, luxury car, bodyguard, private office and trips to the United States.

What Did Farage Know of the Russian Hacking of the Clinton Campaign?

Farage had a secret dinner with Roger Stone and the Infowars host Alex Jones… Stone warned that there would be a WikiLeaks “October surprise”… “Trust me, it will soon [be] Podesta’s time in the barrel.” 4/6
Bannon described his combination of Cambridge Analytica targeting and Breitbart publications as his “weapons”… US electoral data from Cambridge Analytica was handed over to an alleged agent of the GRU before the 2016 Presidential Election. 5/6 Image
It is not credible that Farage knew nothing about Russian interference in UK elections by 2018. Why did he never mention it?

His close ally Isabel Oakeshott was concerned that Banks could be working as an “agent of influence for the Russian state” 6/6 Image

🧵This is what, according to the FBI indictment, Kiryenko, the First Deputy Chief of Staff of the Presidential Office” and reportedly “Putin’s domestic policy curator” aimed to achieve with paid for US disinformation

“Creating of a nuclear psychosis”

justice.gov/opa/media/1366…
The group planned in 2022 “first and foremost, we need to discredit the USA, Great Britain and NATO, and secondly, we need to convey the truth about the war in Ukraine”
‘Zakharova instructed the creation of “websites to tell the Germans the truth!” Another participant suggested using “real facts to complement fake facts.” One suggestion included trying to “make a fake on an American soldier that raped a German woman. That would be great!”’

So Farage (and his funder Arron Banks) are dismissing their multiple Kremlin connections as a hoax. However, looking at the Russian-backed Facebook accounts i the Reform Party, Xenophobia and GB News are exactly what they boost.

Some examples 🧵1/9

Two of the Facebook accounts identified as part of this pro-Kremlin network were called Common Sense Britain and UK Patriots. The first bigs up Farage and Lee Anderson and demonises Muslims 2/9

Since Nigel Farage is seeking high office as a leader of Reform, and the media is happy to give him a platform but rarely challenges his track record, let me put in a 🧵

The Five Questions Nigel Farage is Never Asked About Brexit, Trump and Russia 1/6 ⤵️

bylinetimes.com/2024/06/19/the…
1. Why Did Farage Lie About Meeting the Russian Ambassador?

UKIP was targeted by a spy, Alexander Udod, who set up meetings with Farage's campaign and Ambassador Yakovenko,

So why did Farage protest in June 2018 that “I’ve never met the Russian Ambassador”? 2/6 Image
2. How Could Farage Not Have Known About Arron Banks’ Multiple Visits to the Russian Embassy During the Brexit Campaign?

Banks donated £8m to Leave EU and provide Farage with a £4.4 million rented home, luxury car, bodyguard, private office, and trips to the United States 3/6 Image

The Media, Johnson and Covid: ‘An Orgy of Narcissism’ that Killed Thousands 1/23

bylinetimes.com/2023/11/01/the…
I was still ill from an early dose of COVID-19, vitiated by a fever, strange dreams and a constant popping sound in my head when I was interviewed by @PoliticsJOE_UK in mid-April 2020 about a speech Boris Johnson had made two months earlier. 2/23
These remarks were ‘a smoking gun’ to my eyes because they revealed that Johnson’s ‘take it on the chin’ comments 5 March 2020 were not casual. Though dismissed by organisations like @FullFact as just speculation, they were indeed the real strategy 3/23fullfact.org/health/boris-j…

It's actually worse. Lebedev was part of Russian Govt's “Open Crimea: By Own Eyes” International Media Forum in 2017.

Working for occupying govt. Hiding in plain sight

https://t.co/1ZhXb4SU2m https://t.co/eQz3wfDgtW

Lebedev was more than just a hotel owner after the annexation of Crimea - he was initiated this event and is described as chair of the Board of Directors of the National Reserve Corporation, aswell as publisher of The Independent and The London Evening Standard Alexander Lebedev.
During that event, which he organised, the Russian Foreign Ministry's spokeswoman Maria Zakharova denied all the documented abuses of the Crimean Tartars. Pure Putin propaganda - six years ago sputnikglobe.com/20170611/crime…
