Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

hes a member of the trilateral commission, his actions whether or not he's an intelligence asset would be the same
there was certainly the collusion against corbyn you talk about but corbyn himself was also quite incompetent. i think even mcdonnell would've beaten may in that election (unless he would've prompted a larger response)
Agreed that Jez was incompetent, as much as I carry a soft spot for him. And yeah - I wonder about that situation, where someone more competent was leading. I think the response would have been larger - and potentially to the point where it’d backfire.
I need to go back and rewatch A Very British Coup….the thought of Prime Minister McDonnell joining the Belt and Road Initiative as a means to improve the economy post-Brexit feels very Harry Perkins
i watch it every year, seeing it for the first time after reading about the coup against wilson was definitely an inflection point in my radicalisation
