Labour Together/APCO used GCHQ's 'investigation' into a non-existent hack to get journalists to leave @pauleholden's explosive revelations alone. @PaulMasonNews pulled off the exact same trick to deter mainstream reporters from covering his leaked emails: thegrayzone.com/2026/03/22/b…

My SAR to APCO unearthed mainly blacked out pages. However, interviews I gave about my May 2023 terrorism detention over false allegations of involvement in Russian hacking were transcribed by APCO, then fed to GCHQ as "proof" damaging leaks on Labour Together were hacked:

I was listed prominently among Labour Together's "significant persons of interest" when APCO was tasked with digging up dirt on journalists to kill critical reporting on Starmer's corrupt rise to power. No outlet that reported on the LT/APCO scandal contacted me, however.

Wow. Coverage on the Houthis may have stopped, but their strikes haven’t. With the U.S. unwilling to provide real help, the Saudis have done something unprecedented: their defense minister has flown a plane carrying one BILLION dollars to Tehran in a bid for peace. More on John Kiriakou’s Briefing Room.
BREAKING: Saudi Arabia offers Yemen's Houthis $1 billion through Tehran to halt their attacks as part of a ceasefire, with Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman flying to Iran to negotiate it and even bringing the money with him aboard the C-130 aircraft he arrived on, per diplomatic Gulf sources to Israel Hayom. Iran offered to mediate between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis. It was represented by President Pezeshkian, SNSC chief Mohsen Rezaei and senior IRGC officials. Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin and Pakistan's army chief Asim Munir were also taking part. This is one of the biggest concessions from the Saudis yet.

I worked in the NHS for 14 years. Now doctors like me who speak about Gaza are being reported to the GMC, written up in the press, and left fighting for our careers. This is my experience, and why I won't be silenced. Please watch, share, and contact your MP. @georgegalloway @abierkhatib @SangitaMyska @ShaykhSulaiman @HussainShafiei @Bushra1Shaikh @FranceskAlbs @TheBMA @Partisangirl @mehdirhasan @caitoz @hasanthehun @AyoubKhanMP @jeremycorbyn @KNEECAPCEOL @guychristensen_ @AJEnglish @Lowkey0nline @guardian @TomLondon6 @Tracking_Power

This is the latest in a long series of abuses and irregularities that plague this blatant case of political persecution. Fergie Chambers is being punished for standing in solidarity with Palestine, donating to hungry families and humanitarian projects. He must be released.
🚨 “Chambers’s legal team discovered that [Fergie’s] phone was no longer in the custody of the national court in Madrid and had been turned over to the FBI…” Where is the law? Apparently, no where to be found in this case of political persecution. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

"with the Russian leader" -- quite a change of rhetoric
Spoke with President of Finland @alexstubb and Prime Minister of Norway @jonasgahrstore following their call today with the Russian leader and as a continuation of our discussions in Oslo with representatives of America, Europe, and NATO. I am grateful for the detailed briefing and for their active support for our diplomacy and the peace efforts we are pursuing together with all our partners. Alex and Jonas made it clear to the Russian leader that real de-escalatory steps are needed regarding our energy and infrastructure. We discussed preparations for the trilateral meeting planned for November at the team level – Ukrainian, American, and Russian. Finland and Norway, as countries that border Russia, have a particular interest in sound and reliable security arrangements. We also discussed various formats for our engagement with partners in Europe that could be useful in further supporting diplomacy, our defense, and our shared security. There must be peace, de-escalation is needed, and Russia must stop dragging out the war. I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine!

The now-deceased paedophile Greville Janner also served as the president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews from 1978 to 1984. Janner was protected from prosecution by Tony Blair and latterly by David Cameron. He died without ever answering for his crimes.

The Board of Deputies of British Jews is trending. Who remembers when former BoD President Lionel Kopelowitz threatened to kill Jeremy Corbyn as a 'sacrifice?' Rather than condemn Kopelowitz, the chairperson warns speakers to watch what they say as the meeting is live-streamed.

🇨🇴 Colombia formally requested to leave The Hague Group, a group of states aiming to hold Israel accountable for war crimes, a Colombian government spokesperson announced on Tuesday. The spokesperson said that the group aims “to isolate and attack Israel.” The Hague Group was formed in 2025 by nine countries of the Global South to support the rulings of the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice. It has sought to curtail weapons sales to Israel.
El Gobierno de Colombia, bajo el liderazgo del presidente Abelardo De La Espriella, anuncia su retiro oficial como Estado miembro y copresidente del Grupo de La Haya, reafirmando que la política exterior de la nación responde a valores democráticos e históricos y no a activismos ideológicos. A través del Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores, el Estado rechaza la instrumentalización de este foro para atacar o aislar sistemáticamente a otras naciones soberanas, alejándose de los verdaderos propósitos de la diplomacia. Con esta decisión, el país recupera su verdadera voz y ratifica su compromiso irrestricto con el multilateralismo, el derecho internacional y la paz en escenarios legítimos como el sistema de las Naciones Unidas, devolviéndole la decencia, la sensatez y la soberanía a sus relaciones exteriores.

🇫🇷 “Bordering on Mockery” / “A Full-Blown Parade of Hypocrites” Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu offered students a package of concessions on Monday that student groups rejected immediately, vowing to keep protesting, LCP reported. The offer reportedly included: 🔹 Replacing Parcoursup, France's centralized university admissions system, in 2028 🔹 15,000 new places in higher education and scholarships indexed to inflation 🔹 A cap of 28 students in 10th-grade classes from 2027 🔹 €4 billion in loans to renovate schools and €1 billion for universities Louis Letoublon, vice president of the high school group Les Lycéens!, called the 15,000 places "bordering on mockery," and the Union étudiante gave Lecornu "0/10." Groups were also angered that Lecornu met education influencers that morning, one of whom announced the measures on TV before the unions were received. UNEF's Manon Moret called it "scandalous," LCP reported. Student unions are demanding 10 measures worth €10 billion and plan to march again Saturday alongside the Yellow Vests, then join a national strike on Nov. 5. --- 🎥 1: Sabrine Kharbach, Union étudiante spokesperson, outside Matignon called the discussions a “full-blown parade of hypocrites.” Source: BFMTV 🎥2: Content creator Mathilde Fouqué after meeting Lecornu at Matignon.

Alla vigilia delle elezioni in Israele, una commissione delle Nazioni Unite formula un’accusa gravissima e devastanti contro Israele: sterminio, tortura e stupro come crimini contro l’umanità nella Cisgiordania occupata. A Gaza, conclude la commissione, Israele continua a commettere atti di genocidio. Anche durante il «cessate il fuoco». Il rapporto delinea un quadro di uccisioni, espulsioni, pulizia etnica e violenze sessuali: •In Cisgiordania occupata , dall’ottobre 2023: L’IDF ha ucciso 1.080 palestinesi, tra cui 237 bambini, e 10.940 feriti. •Dai campi profughi sono stati espulsi 34.176 civili: il più grande sfollamento in Cisgiordania occupata dal 1967. •A Gaza, dall’ottobre 2025, durante il «cessate il fuoco»: l’IDF ha ucciso 1.431 palestinesi, tra cui 300 bambini. • Nei pressi della «Linea Gialla», 196 palestinesi uccisi. Israele ha esteso l’area sotto il proprio controllo dal 53% al 60% del territorio di Gaza. Il capo di Stato maggiore israeliano ha definito quella linea il «nuovo confine». Dietro i numeri, le atrocità’ documentati dalla commissione: a Hebron, un bambino di sette mesi ucciso con un colpo alla testa mentre in braccio alla mamma in auto, dopo che il padre aveva alzato le mani. Una famiglia di sei persone uccisa nella propria auto. A Nablus, due fratelli uccisi. A maggio 2026, il generale israeliano del Comando centrale israeliano si è vantato: che soldati israeliani stanno «uccidendo come non facevamo dal 1967». La commissione riferisce inoltre nuovi casi accertati di stupro e violenza sessuale sistemiche nelle carceri israeliane: uno stupro di gruppo con l’uso di oggetti nella prigione di Megiddo e abusi sessuali e torture ai danni degli attivisti della flottiglia.
