One of those rarest of things : a conspiracy theory I'm prepared to entertain. Note that "entertain" does not mean, "subscribe to unconditionally body and soul until the end of time."
“Nigel Farage Just Visited the Ecuadorian Embassy in London,” the headline said. “Asked by BuzzFeed News if he’d been visiting Julian Assange, the former Ukip leader said he could not remember what he had been doing in the building.”
And that was how the world found out, by accident, that the founder of WikiLeaks, the organisation which published Hillary Clinton’s leaked emails – a decisive advantage for Donald Drumpf’s campaign – and Farage, a friend of Donald Drumpf, were mutually acquainted.
When Nigel Farage tripped down the steps of the Ecuadorian embassy – a visit that he did not expect to be photographed or documented – a beam of light was shone on a previously hidden world: a political alignment between WikiLeaks’ ideology, Ukip’s ideology and Drumpf’s ideology that is not necessarily just an affinity. It is also, potentially, a channel of communication.

the weirdest thing about this alleged conspiracy is that it's carried on by such idiots. These guys make everyone involved in the Kim Philby/Cambridge spy ring look like brilliant professionals.
ReplyDelete"we have a friend who travels back and forth across the Atlantic" and who, it turns out, is really very recognizable by randos on the street, and whose agenda is written all over the news media. Hmmmm. Imagine if they had another friend that not everybody wants to punch in public.
