This couldn’t be clearer. Bannon’s texts to Epstein in mid July 2018 - “overthrowing May right now” and in “London with Boris” as well as his appearance on LBC with Nigel Farage are prettying damning evidence of a cross party plot with foreign backing

Here’s the LBC recording of Bannon talking with Farage about getting rid of Theresa May, just as his text messages to Epstein suggest he’s work with Boris Johnson to the same end youtu.be/nU0F8rP7dr4?...

Great that people are noting Epstein’s role as a classic ‘disaster capitalist’ along with Paul Marshall and Crispin Odey. I wrote a week ago how he told Bannon “Brexit is just the beginning” bylinetimes.com/2026/02/03/i...

The Bannon/Farage/Johnson plot to topple May looks pretty damning by November 2018, but starts that summer when Johnson resigns. 15 July Bannon goes on Farage’s LBC show to lambast May. Epstein texts: “Good work on LBC”. Next day he tells Epstein he’s in “London with Boris”

Both phone hacking and Cambridge Analytica data misuse were vehemently denied at the time. But we now know Palantir tools are being used to target protestors by ICE. So public interest concern about them is completely legitimate — let alone Thiel’s political agenda and background

SCOOP: Tensions at Palantir have grown in recent weeks over the company's work with ICE. On Friday, CEO Alex Karp tried to calm concerns in an hourlong video that offered few specifics—instead offering NDAs to workers who want to understand how it's empowering ICE. www.wired.com/story/palant...

We are seeing more and more details of an international conspiracy to artificially engineer the fall of our democracies by pushing the far right into power. We need to fight back with anything we got.

Given the timescale of the Epstein/Bannon/Farage European ‘Movement’ in 2018, you’ve got to wonder about Johnson’s visit to see Putin proxy Alexander Lebedev earlier that year without his security detail. The Russian Bots started pushing ‘moggmentum’ bylinetimes.com/2019/02/19/h...

It is so embarrassing that it has taken nearly a decade for a British minister to say this, a statement of the absolute bloody obvious

Palantir was slipped into the NHS and the UK's police under Boris.

This👇. Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees Mogg should all be brought before a parliamentary committee to explain their connection to Steve Bannon, Jeffrey Epstein, the Brexit referendum and Russian interference in our elections. What is the punishment for treason?

Now let’s hear Farage, Badenoch et al screech about foreign interference in our elections

Peter Thiel was very involved with Epstein. There's a Musk Thiel Epstein connection that I hope the next 3 million materials reveal. DOJ cannot get away with refusing to release those files.

I'm sure everyone who voted for Brexit will be glad to learn they made Epstein and Thiel happy Totally worth it - and obviously a good idea since it helped their agenda, who wouldn't want that? Peak "taking back control"

A fine example to hold up to those who still maintain that leaving the EU was a good thing, right for Britain, and should be maintained. The intent of Brexit was to DESTROY Britain. External powers planned to ruin the UK and profit from its ruination. Brexit was the optimum route to achieve that.

Now more details in the Epstein files reveal Bannon as part of a successful plot to topple Theresa May with Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees Mogg, here’s an article from the archive about Johnson and Bannon’s collaboration bylinetimes.com/2023/04/24/b...

It also needs to be added that when Boris Johnson resigned and plotted to topple Theresa May, Bannon said he advised him on his opening gambit — the nasty Islamophobic column about Muslim women looking like letterboxes and bank robbers bylinetimes.com/2019/10/10/a...

It’s a serious criminal offence to conspire to remove a UK Prime Minister Meanwhile, let’s have a look at Steve Bannon’s well documented and ultimately successful attempts to remove Theresa May (with Epstein’s support) from 2018-19 bylinetimes.com/2025/11/19/d...

The same people who tell us “oh, dear boy, you don’t understand” when reassuring us about Palantir embedding itself in the British state were almost exactly the same people who told us Russian interference, Cambridge Analytica and phone hacking were just ‘conspiracy theories’

Yes right here hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2026...

An excellent and important article covering an excellent and important moment in UK politics. Thank you to @mattmgallagher.bsky.social. It gives us solidity to point to now when others downplay Russian interference and manipulation in British Politics. The MPs said it. Is this debate on Hansard?

👏👍 “The Epstein files make it clear that Gill was not one bad apple, but part of something much bigger and darker: a web of far-right, Russia-linked anti-democratic forces. It is an oblique and shady movement, in which [Farage] appears to be embroiled deeply.” - Green MP [email protected]

Very nearly there with the front page of the new edition of @bylinetimes.bsky.social which goes to the printers tomorrow. One big theme we can’t avoid, but with unique exclusive new content, @hardeepmatharu.bsky.social has turned this into an illuminating story

i think they’re being overly optimistic regarding the canine literacy rate

Really good debate, worth a listen

🧵6/6 Key points Russian threat clear, present, serious Reform heavily involved in manipulation Details cited Treason and fraud stated MPs dismissing Russian interference are lying Press not reporting and media playing down is misleading public This should be shared widely by MPs, media, and us.

🧵5/6 Giving thanks to the 114,000 who signed the petition that led to this debate, Security Minister @danjarvismp.bsky.social (Lab) summed up what is already in place and what still needs to be worked on. Overall, I was relieved and heartened by what was said in this debate. Politicians ARE aware.

🧵1 Following a petition signed by 114,659 people, today (16:30-18:50) Parliament held an excellent debate on Russian influence in UK politics. MPs I'll list in this thread know, offered details and remedies. Full debate starts 4 mins in: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXlk... +The Citizens live notes ⏬

Watched the whole debate live. Not one Reform representative showed up, unsurprisingly. The MPs who spoke were more alert to threats than expected and I think that's at least partly due to the work of Peter Jukes and Carole Cadwalladr. Here's a 6-part summary thread of it. bsky.app/profile/stev...

First we need to get rid of the Lobby.

But they're not elected. SpAds wield the whip, but can never suffer it

Which leads to relationships where scrutiny, impartiality and honesty all suffer at the alter of access. They are definitely not in the best interests of the electorate!

Access & info is the currency. We all expect journalists to ask hard questions of politicians. But that journalists career is dependent on having access & info. If they ask too hard questions, then access & info can be denied & their career damaged. The prob is, it also works the other way round

How access journalism works. Every political editor/correspondent falls in love with the SpAd who provides them with scoops. Until, inevitably with McBride/Timothy/Cummings/McSweeney, the SpAd's demise becomes the next scoop. Rinse and repeat. Ad nauseam

Greetings from Kyiv. Just checking in. Nothing new, electricity and heating remain difficult here. The frost doesn’t leave us, -16 °C now. Hope your Monday is (or was) kind, and that you’re grateful for everything you have.

We're making the UK the hardest possible target for foreign interference. Last week, I led briefings with MI5 and key sectors to help them identify the threat. This week, we're launching a new tool to help universities report cases to security experts. www.gov.uk/guidance/pro...

Lots of mentions in the Parliamentary debate today of former MP and DCMS member Ian Lucas’ book on information warfare ‘Digital Gangsters’ — three years old but ever more relevant subscribe.bylinetimes.com/product/digi...

This is worth watching in toto. And though I am loath to single out any politician given the existential threats of Russian interference in Ukraine our democracies, @danjarvismp.bsky.social’s grasp and reach and generosity on this issue is stunning. www.youtube.com/live/BXlk5uf...

Required reading.

Outstanding reading, brilliant insight.

This is a good read

🔴The End of Morgan McSweeney: Peter Oborne on Keir Starmer's Departing Chief of Staff As McSweeney resigns, we re-publish Peter Oborne’s Byline Times reporting on how Keir Starmer's chief strategist drove Labour towards defeat by the far-right www.bylinesupplement.com/p/the-end-of...

Oborne couldn't be more right about this bit: "Yet more shocking was the withdrawal of support for Labour’s candidate in Clacton, paving the way for a smooth victory for Nigel Farage and the synchronised dog-whistle attacks against Britain’s vulnerable Bangladeshi community."
