Afuckingmen to that.Never understood why people support political sides as if were a football team. This isn’t city vs United, it’s your fucking country and none of these tossers have your best interests at heart. Some of them are working against the country to line their own pockets and it needs sorting !

nothing to see here.
So little to see that they have ramped up (fave phrase) their deflection tactics
am - teachers doctors and cops get an above inflation pay rise though they aren't putting the money in to pay for it ( already back firing as schools are going to have to cut back when they need money to accommodate smaller classes / more teachers going forward - likelihood is to pay the teachers they will make teaching assistants redundant )
midday - report released - awks - do something quick
pm - Patel, through gritted teeth, announces to the House they are going to be really really nice to the Windrush generation from now on.

The biggest take is government being lax.
Boris can blame it on May/Cameron and move on.
He can't explain away why he suppressed its publication for no good reason

“Russian influence in the uk is the new norm and gov welcome Russian oligarchs and their money with open arms”
with no due diligence done to ascertain where they even got the money from.
It’s just a free for all as it stands and Gov giving everyone Who asks questions the middle fingerwith no due diligence done to ascertain where they even got the money from.

Why are you of the opinion that this report was written by some extension of the 'remain' campaign?
What evidence do you have for it?
None - but that's what he wants it to be.....

Corbyn would have been justified in his publishing of the leaked trade talks during the election campaign.He can't explain away why he suppressed its publication for no good reason

You mean the one the Russians sent to him direct and secretly by publishing it on Reddit a month beforehand?

I see Jimmy Crankie wants another enquiry because the ISC didn't find anything - perhaps she should look more closely to home with her predecessor being paid to do a TV show on Russia Today?

“The defence of democratic processes has appeared something of a ‘hot potato’, with no one organisation considering itself to be in the lead, or apparently willing to conduct an assessment of such interference. This must change,”
For that to happen then people have to acknowledge it’s happening or at the very least, accept it’s a possibility. Until then, we’ll be stuck doing nothing.

He was clearly guilty of being a Brexiteer.
No case to answer for on the Electoral Comission charges according to the police so what does our survey say on this charge as well?

I found this in the Government response to the Russia report:
Protecting UK democratic processes
Since the Committee took evidence in January 2019, the Government has established the Defending Democracy programme, strengthened cross-Government counter disinformation capability and established frameworks to counter state sponsored influence campaigns, and oversee election security. The Cabinet Office established the Defending Democracy programme to bring together our work to safeguard our democratic processes and to make sure that our democracy remains safe and inclusive, now and into the future. The Programme was formally announced in July 2019. It brings together capabilities and expertise from Government departments, the Security and Intelligence Agencies and civil society to ensure UK democracy remains open and vibrant as well as secure. Given the cross cutting nature of this task, the Minister for the Cabinet Office, supported by Cabinet Office Officials, coordinates work to secure UK Democracy. The programme has four priorities:
Protect and secure UK democratic processes, systems and institutions from interference, including from cyber, personnel and physical threats.
Strengthen the integrity of UK elections.
Encourage Respect for open, fair and safe democratic participation.
Promote fact-based and open discourse, including online.
Well it made me laugh.
Fact based......
