That's the only point I'm trying to make. I understand the point you are making, but I wonder if it is too nuanced for most. Let's see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30266 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 It does seem an unusual move. In the leadership contest and up until this point his advisors have tried to keep him quiet obviously fearing an inevitable gaffe. The only thing I can think is that they're trying to avoid May's complacency in assuming that her lead would remain intact throughout the campaign. In 2015 didn't Cameron and Miliband do something different? They were both interviewed one on one by Paxman immediately after one another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30266 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) So Arron Banks' twitter has been hacked. I'm not quite brave enough to download what is supposed to be his private Twitter correspondance. https://twitter.com/Arron_banks Edited November 19, 2019 by ewerk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44395 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 People are tagging Cadwalladr and Guido. Hopefully someone is brave enough to jump on this, I bet there's some very dodgy shit in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30266 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 What I'm taking from that is that Dominic Raab refers to himself as simply 'Raab'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44395 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 No one would fake it and sign the messages off "Raab". You'd find a slightly more subtle way of revealing his identity. Plus that is so on-brand for that psychotic, narcissistic cunt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44395 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 There's a further Raab chat where he's brokering the deal for Johnson btw. Banks says that Farage wants a WTO exit and that's "surely not too much to ask". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5183 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Tories just dropped a hint that they could permit a second independence referendum after 2021. So about the time Labour was talking about doing it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're right about this but in the tweets below the main post, there's a few people saying that this specific message didn't appear in the information dump, and that the IDs don't correspond to Raab's account.

Rayvin 5183 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Have a slight feeling of dread ahead of these debates. Corbyn is usually pretty solid in them but I hate the idea that votes could be won or lost on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
