Corbyn may not have been a spy, but he always opposed the West

Corbyn? Really?? He’s like someone’s doddery grandfather!

Earlier this week Theresa May issued a blunt message to the Moscow, accusing them of seeking to “undermine our institutions” by spreading fake news.

A new study released today suggested some 150,000 fake Twitter accounts based in Russia had been used to try to influence last year’s Brexit referendum.

But while Mrs May has struck an assertive tone towards Russia, Jeremy Corbyn’s spokesman urged conciliation with Mr Putin’s government.

Pressed on whether Labour view Mr Putin as a threat to democracies, the spokesman replied: "There are all manner of threats which we have talked about which are an issue for the government as a whole and for the Ministry of Defence – and Labour supported maintain our armed forces and prioritising our cyber security.

"I think we need to see more evidence of what's being talked about...[but] Jeremy has made clear on a number of occasions that we need to see an attempt through dialogue to ratchet down tensions with Russia,” the spokesman told reporters."

“He has made clear that in the Nato-Russian relationship there has been tension on both sides.”

The Labour leader has previously described Nato as “a danger to world peace and a danger to world security”, although he has since said he wants to “work within Nato” to enhance global security.

HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — The Latest on Failing Cheeto-Faced Ferret-Wearing Shit Gibbon's visit to Asia (all times local):

11:20 a.m.

Failing Cheeto-Faced Ferret-Wearing Shit Gibbon says stronger U.S. relations with Russia would benefit the globe and suggests that Russian sanctions may be lifted.

Trump says in Vietnam that Russia has been "very heavily sanctioned" and "it's now time to get back to healing a world that is shattered and broken." The president is pointing to the need to work with Russia to solve problems in Syria, North Korea and Ukraine.

Trump says he believes "having Russia in a friendly posture as opposed to always fighting them is an asset."

Congress slapped sanctions on Russia last summer for interfering in the 2016 election. Those sanctions were in addition to existing U.S. penalties on Russia for its support of separatists in eastern Ukraine and 2014 annexation of Ukraine's Crimea region.

Hillary Clinton went too far when she claimed that Donald Trump said “we should pull out of NATO.” Trump has said that he would “certainly look at” pulling the United States out of the international security alliance, because it is “obsolete” and “is costing us a fortune.” But the Clinton campaign provided nothing indicating that Trump advocates pulling out now.

Trump, who has nearly clinched the Republican nomination for president, has been critical of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which was established in 1949 by the U.S., Canada and 10 Western European nations to defend against the former Soviet Union. Trump’s main criticisms of NATO, which now has 28 member nations, are that the alliance no longer serves its founding purpose and that it is too costly to the U.S., which pays about 22 percent of direct spending by NATO, the most of any nation, according to budget information. The U.S. also pays a much larger portion of the organization’s indirect costs, NATO says.

The head of British Labour Jeremy Corbyn consciously collaborated with the STB and took the money for it, former member of the STB Jan Sarkocy, who Corbyn met, told told ČTK. 

“Corbyn was recruited. He also received money,” Sarkocy said… He added that Corbyn had “won” the StB now a prominent member of the Labour Party, and that Corbyn’s recruiting took place “under the protection of Russia”. Asked if Corbyn knew he was talking not only with a diplomat but also with an StB member, Sarkocy replied that at that time there was no doubt that Czechoslovak diplomats were working for the StB.
“All the information we received not only from him but also from one supporting source, to be verifiable, was rated in Moscow as the number one. What we could not do was to do the Russians, “Sarkocy said. Corbyn, for example, participated in the reception of the Czechoslovak embassy about twice a year.
Sarkoci claimed that the British Secret Service had learned about the recruitment of Corbyn and that he had to leave Britain afterwards. “If something happened at that time, he (Corbyn) could go to live in Russia,” he said.
According to Sarkocy, who, according to archival documents as a member of the StB, worked at the embassy in London from 1986 to 1989 as third embassy secretary, the StB and other representatives of the Labour Party also cooperated. “They were not only those in the position of deputies, but they were also those of the highest authority,” he said without further details.

“As Svetlana Ptacnikova, Director of the Czech Security Forces Archive, has made clear, Jeremy was neither an agent, asset, informer nor collaborator with Czechoslovak intelligence. These claims are a ridiculous smear and entirely false. The former Czechoslovak agent Jan Sarkocy’s account of his meeting with Jeremy was false 30 years ago, is false now and has no credibility whatsoever. His story has more plot holes in it than a bad James Bond movie.”
