General Election

All the above adds to shameful language, illegal behaviour, lack of diplomacy, undermining of the judiciary, distortion of the truth, uncaring attitudes to suffering  etc. etc.

I want to be able to vote for a party with principles and worthy values, not a sly, manipulative set of hoodwinkers. Don't be taken in by their lies.

For more information, consult the Donald Trump playbook.

Most of Corbyns rhetoric is lifted straight from trump.

Obviously it's all above board. Right.

If only there were some sort of review into Russian interference with our democratic processes we could clear this all up. So who is suppressing this report?

According to the cyber experts opinions on the TV, the DDOS indicated both Russia and Brazil, but could quite as easily come from someones bedroom in the UK. DDOS software can be bought on line it seems.
Needless to say, and I've used the term before, paranoia is striking almost everywhere, but especially with the Remain parties and its followers.

The government is suppressing a report of national significance, excusing that is pathetic.
