No offence to Laura, but we’ve learned the hard way. This literally means fuck all. It’s not even fake news, it’s non news. Non-verifiable, non-accountable, non-sense. Quote on the record or ignore. Everything else is propaganda

Facebook is a malignant global power destroying liberal democracy - when I said this at TED, it seemed to genuinely shock Silicon Valley. 16 months on, everyone now sees it. But we’re frozen in the headlights. Of what feels like an oncoming freight train

You were named in a UNESCO report for the misogynistic attack you directed at me. It mainstreamed abuse that continues to this day. You never retracted. You never apologised.

Disgraceful treatment of @BBCNewsnight Nick Watt. A fine reporter and good friend. Subjected to the intimidation and thuggery of the mob. Simply terrible. Solidarity with Nick.

‘Is it right to seize people’s assets without any form of due process?’ Nigel Farage defends Abramovich. One of the greatest of failures of last 10 years has been failure to see Farage for who he is. His pro-Putin views in plain sight the entire time.

Bank holiday reflections: I’ve worked flat-out on this for 2.5 years. It’s triggered multiple investigations & billion $ fines. But I’m in @guardian bubble. Most of UK still entirely in dark. Took a US media org to do this. What next? How to get it out??

From March 12-23, I was among those seriously alarmed at govt failure to act. Was repeatedly told I was ‘scaremongering’ & tone was ‘inappropriate’. I hope my tweets today are as scaremongering & inappropriate because this is another critical moment & govt is again failing us

You have not been sued for libel. I have. There are many things I have wanted to say in the last 6 weeks of #DeppvHeard But I haven't. Because whatever I say will be used to attack not just me but others too. Because that's how libel works. That's the whole point of it. 1/

The fact that his case was brought clearly shows how our libel laws favour the rich & powerful. I was only able to defend myself because of the incredibly generous support of the public. But this judgment is a huge victory for public interest journalism. 3/

The story of Arron Banks is intertwined with every single element of the above. That's for another time. What matters now is Ukraine. And the key to helping it is to understand that Putin isn't just coming for us next. He already has. FIN

I’m sorry Robert but what unsourced bollocks are you spinning now? The committee already signed it off. The non-publication is down to Boris Johnson alone. It has *nothing* to do with the committee. Your *source* is lying. If Cummings has told you he plans to publish it, say that

Apparently that famous - notorious (?) - report into Russian interference in UK that many wanted published before election will be released as soon as parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee is up and running again. I guess that will be January
