itsnotoutthere Posted July 22, 2020 #51 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) Anybody.....give me an example of Russian interference. Anything even approaching the BBCs anti-Brexit interference? If the state broadcaster & combined media can't persuade the electorate to vote remain with their reach & constant anti-brexit propaganda then what chances a few tweets from a Russian bot. https://www.spiked-online.com/2020/07/21/the-russia-report-is-full-of-prejudice-but-no-evidence/ Edited July 22, 2020 by itsnotoutthere 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how the SNP tried to distance themselves from the report that said Russian interference in the Scottish Referendum, which put the SNP on the same side as the Russians. but the plot thickens, not long after Alex Salmond got his own TV show on RT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Wellington Posted July 22, 2020 Author #53 Share Posted July 22, 2020 At todays Prime Minsters question time it has come out that the government only received a report on Russian interference 10 months ago. Thats 3 months before the General Election, long after the Brexit referendum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't say for certain, but my money would be on a collection of disgruntled remainer MPs taking a lead from the democrats in the US, any chance to throw a little bit more s**t on the fan & chip away at democracy.

You'd probably almost manage to do the same monumental mistakes without Russian support, but their propaganda offensive was the drop that spilled your glass of historic stupidity. 'scuse me now, I rather wouldn't comment anymore, I've got so much pointing and laughing to do. Care to outline 'The Russian propaganda campaign' as I missed it. "but their propaganda offensive was the drop that spilled your glass of historic stupidity" .......Ever thought of writing poetry?

The timing of the report is not the issue. the report highlights deliberate inaction previous to the report when action should have been taken. The 10months thing is simply a question of why did the government deliberately sit on it. Was it the reference to Londongrad and laundromat that unsettled the government? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of more importance to the general public is why did they sit on the report into muslim child grooming gangs & why is the left wing MSM reluctant to push the government on that issue?

So the Government asked the ISC to provide a report then failed to provide any relevant material for that report? Just curious, are you using this as a defence of the government..?

They determined the Scottish referendum was interfered with (unsuccessfully). They supplied nothing on interference in the EU referendum because they were unwilling to look. What does that tell you? What possible reason could a government have to not look at an issue of national security except they were afraid of the answer? Quote You are just another remoaner trying to undermine Brexit, guess what, too late, we left. And you're just another pathetic leaver who'd happily sacrifice our national security to avoid any difficult questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know because we don't know what interference there was and the government doesn't want to find out. That is the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
