Has anyone seen Nigel Farage MP? He had some things to say about ‘the Russian conspiracy’ that I think we need an update on, no?

Correct! It’s techfascist favourite, Palantir. We’ve found a revolving door of UK officials who’ve gone from the highest levels of government into Peter Thiel’s firm. Transparency experts describe it as an ‘acute risk’ for corruption

This speech *is* one for the history books. But that’s less a compliment, than a coda. Carney has given us the words to mark the end of the ‘rules-based order’…by acknowledging it never really existed. It was a collective illusion. That now is over.

You’ll be shocked to learn Nigel Farage is using me as a punchbag at today’s rally. Of course he is. It was my trial established the facts of Arron Banks’s relationship with the Russian ambassador. Will Labour finally commit to investigating foreign interference in our politics?

So, today @tedtalks announced that my TED talk ‘This is What a Digital Coup Looks Like’ was their most watched talk of the year. It’s sort of amazing & terrifying. Because this *is* what a digital coup looks like.

I gave this TED talk warning Silicon Valley of the profound threat of it posed to democracy nearly 6 years ago. It provoked a lawsuit that caused me years of pain. The UK government did nothing to contain the threat. And here we are.

So Clegg is out. And Zuck goes all in on Trump. Top Facebook PR flak now is guy who helped Kavanaugh through his sexual assault hearing. Please don’t ever forget Clegg’s role in this. He’s an enabling reputation launderer who will always carry the stink

What I want to know is why UK govt swept evidence of years of Kremlin influence operations under the carpet. If you do too, please consider supporting this project. UK broadcasters have utterly failed to cover any part of this story. And we need answers.

Kudos to ⁦Mehdi Hasan⁩. Not only did he invite me on his show to talk about my investigation into Farage’s funders (no UK channel ever did). But he also asked a former colleague of Nathan Gill’s in the EU parliament whether UKIP had ever taken Russian bribes 🔥

‘Speaking outside his chateau in France, former Brexit Party and UKIP MEP Coburn answered "no" when a BBC journalist asked him whether he had ever been paid to give a speech to promote pro-Russian campaigners.’ Great work from BBC Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. Keep going

This is president of Google - a company accused of illegally harvesting copyrighted work - saying journalists need to learn to use AI or ‘risk missing out’. He’s just been appointed to the board of The Guardian. I hope every journalist in the org watches this & asks: why?

Please watch this & see what you make of it. Laura Kuenssberg seems to have a scoop: she reveals Palantir's UK boss was actually *in the middle* of US-UK trade negotiations. But instead of breaking that story & asking hard qs of him & UK govt, he's invited on as a political pundit.

A long day but I’m so proud & happy to have stood alongside my Guardian & Observer colleagues to fight for what we believe in: liberal journalism free from corporate interest. 500+ journalists giving up almost a week’s pay just to be heard while the Guardian sits on a 1.3bn trust fund! ✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊

Thank you so much to Sky News & Katie Spencer for such a great package on the Guardian & Observer's strike. The Guardian has a £1.3 billion trust fund that makes millions of £ in interest a year...but has to sell the Obs in a secret deal to a failing media org by Xmas? Really?!?
