Members of the cross-party Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) were told that Moscow built up a network of friendly British diplomats, lawyers, parliamentarians and other influencers from across the political spectrum. One witness described the development as "potentially the most significant threat to the UK's institutions and its ways of life,"
...and it's being buried.https://mobile.twitter.com/TomJHarper/status/1193279348851314688?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5EtweetJohnson refuses to publish the security services report on Russian interference in UK elections.Sunday Times reporters dig into this and find that that NINE Russian oligarchs named in that report are also donors to the Tory party.This is bigger than any other story or issue by a million miles.This is how democracies fail.And from the BBC?f**k all. I stead they lead with a story the Tories want pushed, about them guessing how much Labour's policies will cost us.And the Sunday Times also leads with that Labour cost story splashed all over it's cover. While the investigative journalism by its own reporters I to Johnson and the Russians is buried inside.
Kwarteng is awful. The worst type of politician to be interviewed. He never,ever engages with the substance of questions. He just bulldozes through with the pre-planned statement he wants to make.
I give a shit about as much as you give a shit about corbyn and his terror links and as much as you do about the once in a generation vote, your outraged because it suits your agenda

Bpool. Just stop and think.What happens if and when Johnson wins s big majority, with his critics in the Tory party booted out?THAT is what is going on here. He's already got most of the Tory MPs who don't like him either standing down or not being chosen as candidates. So, if he wins a big majority, with MPs who are solidly behind him, and THEN the report is published, what is the mechanism for bringing him to task?THAT is why the report has been sat on.
