Dismayed by lack of transparency and questionable behaviour by some within EMUK Sunlight is the best disinfectant, & scrutiny has never been more important

The WhatsApp group where much of this smearing takes place is overseen by Anna Bird and Lord Andrew Adonis. Andrew does not like uncomfortable truths and blocks people who he disagrees with. Thus I have no route to resolution with him. 2/ #Labour #Grassroots #Europe #Brexit

For some months I have attempted to resolve a worrying problem with a concerted smear campaign against me by Grassroots for Europe and The European Movement. I have had no reply in private from CEO Anna Bird, so I have decided to go public. Here is the summary 1/ @euromove

So, when Richard Wilson and his "gang" claim that I have damaged EM, I must report that Lord Adonis achieved more to kill their reputation in one decision than I could do in my lifetime.

Replying to @cmcknz77 @MODEMUK
Adonis made the decision to target 44 Tory seats that included strong pro-EU Conservatives. It led to the loss of the Conservative European Forum from the EU and its inability to claim cross party credentials. A major disaster

And they use blocking to stop me seeing and replying to their views
They asked me to be "deplatformed" at the World Wide Wednesday event, said that I should never have been allowed to go to #Brighton to speak and that #London for Europe were wrong to give my books positive reviews. Pathetic I'm not @OwenJones84

It has come to my attention that a number of figures in #Grassroots for Europe / #European Movement continue to spread smear stories about my work. For complete clarity and transparency it appears that they are looking for someone to blame for their own problems ...

Point 2 He was then told that the issue only demanded 3 minutes of the Exec's time! I mean, three minutes Later on EM realised its mistake and then got involved in some ambulance chasing by piggy backing on the march. Admirable, but a face saving gesture

Point 1 : The person who was kicked off Whatsapp simply asked that the group considered the awful situation in #Ukraine. There is a clear link with #Russian money and #Brexit - see brexitrage.com/brexit-and-ww… He was bullied for asking and removed. I have seen the messages

I'm sorry Gavin, I have been banned from attending your event by @euromove East Kent since they are unhappy that I am taking them to court for a simple matter of non-payment of legitimate expenses. I would have enjoyed your talk and a quick chat about prog rock @gavinesler

This is unbelievable. EU citizens have been overwhelmed by problems, none of which were their own doing. thelondoneconomic.com/news/l…

Still going badly for Putin over all. Three commanders killed as they move closer to front.

If you want to see how quickly the conservatives can impose sanctions just go to the job centre five minutes late.

The last line is great as well
James O'Brien tears into Priti Patel for going to Poland to 'pretend' that she really cares about refugees. @mrjamesob
