"The government have actively avoided looking for evidence Russia interfered."
This is arguably the greatest scandal of modern British politics. The Intelligence & Security Committee's Stewart Hosie said the government didn't investigate alleged Russian interference in the Brexit vote, and no one wanted to touch this "with a ten-foot pole".
Successive British governments including Starmer's have covered up the extent of Russian interference in the most important vote in modern British history.
Please repost to demand that Andy Burnham shows the courage to put an end to this cover-up and allows an inquiry to expose the truth about Russian interference in the Brexit referendum.
The first rule of information warfare: distract. We published evidence that @arron_banks May have colluded with a foreign power. That’s the story. Don’t fall for the utterly false claims about material being hacked. It wasn’t. Back story here https://t.co/iBdgCC128j
@atrupar Nope nope nope — he said you couldn’t cut that shit with a knife. It would last “a century.”
I’m so fucking sick of the blatant lies and the way he’s banking on the press just moving the fuck on.
The West was incensed when the Taliban blew up the Buddhist Bamiyan statues in Afghanistan.
Crickets as Israel blows up a UNESCO heritage site in Lebanon.
700 tons of explosives.
Israel detonated 700 tons of explosives beneath Beaufort Castle in South Lebanon, in the middle of the night.
A 900-year-old Crusader castle that UNESCO just listed as endangered heritage.
Cape Verde was a great story. Truly great. But 2 weeks after, football doesn't give a fuck, less so after 1, 2 or 4 years.
If Mauritius, Mozambique, Mali do the same, great, but for 99% of fans, 99% of the time, across the world, nobody cares.
If France, Italy, Germany, England, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal boycott a World Cup, it's automatically invalid. It's just the truth.
Likewise, a club World Cup without any of Europe's top 25 clubs is invalid. Nobody is watching Inter Miami v Boca Juniors except in markets that simply don't generate revenue or global interest.
UEFA should immediately take over global law making ( UEFA replace FIFA 4 votes in a new IFAB with the 4 home nations continuing holding the other 4 votes).
Europe has paid football's bills for 150 years. It does not need to vote for a man in an island of 100,000 to hold the game to random because FIFA are giving him 20 mil.
I'm half English, half Barbadian. One has paid its football dues, the other hasn't, so the other cannot and must not hold the balance of power.
When two thirds of football nations fill their stadiums, support grassroots football, create a pyramid, have women's teams, find kids, then their vote is equal to a European powerhouse.
Not a day before.
Time for UEFA to secede from FIFA
FIFA needs UEFA. UEFA doesn't need FIFA.
There's much, much more that we exposed - a Reform UK corporate infrastructure surrounding Cottrell that extends from London to the waters of the Adriatic. And it started, an old school friend of Cottrells told us, with a cosy friendship with Arkadiy Abramovich /15
O comentarista suíço David Lemos, encerrou a transmissão resumindo com precisão os problemas desta Copa do Mundo, ele foi perfeito.
🗣️"Não há dúvidas de que esta foi a Copa do Mundo mais comercial da história e também uma das mais politizadas."
"Não esqueceremos os preços que pessoas sem grande poder aquisitivo tiveram de pagar para viver sua paixão pelo futebol."
"Em alguns casos, sequer puderam entrar no país por causa de sua nacionalidade, fossem torcedores, jornalistas ou até árbitros, como o somali Omar Artan."
"Também lembramos do tratamento inaceitável dado à seleção do Irã, que não pôde defender suas chances de forma adequada durante o torneio."
"E há ainda o caso de Folarin Balogun. Vimos um presidente se vangloriar de ter ligado para o presidente da FIFA para conseguir retirar a suspensão de um jogador."
"A política se infiltrou no coração do futebol, embora a FIFA afirme querer mantê-la acima de tudo. Fica claro que isso só vale até certo ponto."
"Foi uma Copa do Mundo em que todas as partidas foram disputadas em quatro tempos, e cuja final teve um intervalo de quase 30 minutos."
"A crise tem dois nomes: dinheiro e poder. Hoje existe uma crise de confiança entre muitos dos envolvidos no futebol e a FIFA."
"Nas próximas semanas, muito dinheiro será distribuído a diversas federações e a muitos agentes do futebol, que serão educadamente convidados a permanecer em silêncio."
"Esperamos que tudo isso seja levado em consideração e que não volte a acontecer."
This is interesting . In today's @spectator mag, @CountBinface reviews Sir Christopher Nolan's new movie, @odysseymovie . He does so with great insight, sympathy, knowledge & erudition of his own odyssey, suggesting he might make a far better MP for Clacton than his opponent.
🚨 Donald Trump ran for office for three main reasons:
1. To stay out of jail
2. To exact revenge on his enemies
3. To line his pockets and his family’s pockets
Everything else he says is bullshit.
Thumbs up 👍 if you agree.
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Todd Blanche says that he is President Trump’s personal lawyer. The Attorney General of the United States is expected to act independently of the president. This could tank his nomination.
