    One of the dangers of our time is the political-media nexus that fabricate narratives to influence public opinion in order to ensure that elite control is maintained over governments and national economies that they see as their natural right to own and direct.

    Presently, in the UK the neoliberal economic agenda has basically remained unchallenged since the days of Margaret Thatcher - despite the fact that large tracts of the nation are poor -bordering on destitution, and many families have to rely on food-banks provisioned by charitable giving.

    One politicians who could change this disastrous ongoing selfishness is Jeremy Corbyn. This makes him an enemy of the elite and their gofers in Parliament and the media.

    Which is why I've maintained, since he won the Labour Party leadership contest, that Corbyn will never be permitted to win a General Election.

    The below book review by Peter Oborne explains how Corbyn is being systemically screwed in Tom Bower's new book. Which for me, is simply another case of watching the narrative bout Corbytn being reinforced and spun to ensure he doesn't stand a chance to win an election contest.

    If my perception is true what this tells us about the elite and their media managers and fixers is that it is they who cannot be trusted.

    But then many of us knew this anyway.

    It isn't just the UK where the Press is deliberately and collectively feeding the people a lie, I was watching some stuff from the US today where the Spokesman for Trumps regime was telling the press off because some of them called Guaido the opposition leader and some called him the 'self appointed President' when as far as he was concerned the truth was he was the legit President and there were no two ways about it. It will not be long till there are punishments for not having the correct political view. Meanwhile the The Simon Wiesenthal Center has Corbyn down as one of the most terrifying anti-Semites. He's on No 4 of their top ten!!!

    Yep I agree. These tactics are worse in the US than here. We've simply adopted and adapted them from the Trump Hilary Russian meme. The Anglo-American sphere usually marches in lockstep.

    The days when the Simon Wiesenthal Centre stood for anything died with Wiesenthal. In fact, it died before then - based on my enquiries to them about Bormann during a telephone call back in the 1990's.
