Intent To Influence Or Refrain

Within seconds of the close of poll at Gorton and Denton, an organisation of which no one had ever heard had alleged an offence of which no one had ever heard, and that was the news according to all outlets. Today, the Police finally told that organisation to get lost.

I do not defend a party of anti-industrial Malthusianism, drug legalisation, "sex work", gender self-identification, EU reaccession, war in Ukraine, municipal austerity, and parliamentary opposition to workers' rights. But the burning oil wells in the Gulf are the retort to the injunction to the Greens to stay in their environmentalist lane.

And John Ault is a veteran Liberal Democrat activist and a sometime Lib Dem parliamentary candidate, whose previously unknown Democracy Volunteers are funded by the Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust. This was how it started against Jeremy Corbyn, not with the Far Right, but with centrist astroturfers such as Labour Together.
