In our next segment of our #WhoArmsAfrica campaign we turn our attention to Defex S.A., a Spanish company that exported security and defense products. We, at CT, have found out both how and why they did so. But first, who was Defex S.A.? 🤔 Let's find out together 🧨

My statement on the Filton 4 case, as an expert on the global arms trade: ‘These quadcopter drones are key instruments of genocide, used by the Israeli forces in Gaza for surveillance, targeting and to kill. Had they not been destroyed by these brave actionists, they could have easily ended up facilitating yet more killing and devastation. To call those who disabled them terrorists is a perverse distortion of the truth. The real outrage is the continued arming and enabling of a genocidal military campaign that has devastated an entire civilian population. Those who smashed these drones to pieces were not spreading terror - they were trying to prevent it.’

John Healey and NATO think we're stupid and don't realize that instead of looking at actual defence needs, they're just setting an arbitrary spending target. I'm sure arms companies are more than happy to match any sky-high spending target in their pricing.

Healey’s resignation is the military industrial complex announcing its programme for the next Labour leader. It finishes Starmer. Arms spending is the key issue of the age. Come to the international anti war conference: tickettailor.com/events/stop…

Shadow World Investigations & Paul Holden - author of The Fraud: – are today announcing a new investigative project about the transformation of the Parliamentary Labour Party under the Labour Together Project. Please RT this. Thank you.

'The Fraud' author to investigate how Labour Together shaped parliament Labour Together and its key donors spent over £2m to get two-thirds of the Labour MPs currently in the House of Commons elected. @StarmertheFraud Paul Holden wants to know why. thecanary.co/uk/news/2026/06… thecanary.co/uk/news/2026/06…

New piece by Paul Holden @StarmertheFraud hosted by our friends at @TheCanaryUK "Shadow World Investigations and Paul Holden are today announcing a new investigative project about the transformation of the Parliamentary Labour Party (PLP) under the Labour Together Project".

CALL FOR EVIDENCE: THE LABOUR TOGETHER PARLIAMENT Please share widely and help us expose the hyper-factional remaking of the Parliamentary Labour Party by the Labour Together/Morgan McSweeney project. Submissions to be made to research@shadowworldinvestigations.org Shadow World Investigations (SWI) and Paul Holden - author of The Fraud: Keir Starmer, Morgan McSweeney and the Crisis of British Democracy – are today announcing a new investigative project about the transformation of the Parliamentary Labour Party (PLP) under the Labour Together Project. This long-germinating project is soliciting evidence about how Labour Party processes were used (and abused) to manipulate the selection of Labour MP candidates who now make up the majority of the PLP. Sir Keir Starmer was the frontman for a scandalous political project that spent the best part of a decade remaking the Labour Party along rigidly factional and exclusionary lines. The most consequential transformation was of the Parliamentary Labour Party. Two thirds of the Labour MPs currently sitting in the House of Commons were selected through a process tightly controlled by Morgan McSweeney and his allies, allegedly with direct (albeit informal) input from Peter Mandelson. Labour Together, and its key donors, then spent over £2 million on getting this intake of MPs elected. The selection process that McSweeney oversaw was beset by allegations of misconduct and irregularities so widespread that veteran journalist Michael Crick warned of potential ‘corruption’. One MP selection has resulted in criminal charges being filed against Labour officials. These are the MPs that not just determine the future of the country but will play a key role in either making or breaking the political fortunes of whoever next succeeds Starmer. In a follow up to The Fraud, SWI, Paul Holden and Jessica Murray will be embarking upon ‘The Labour Together Parliament’ project to examine the legitimacy of the process that resulted in the current Parliament, upon which any Labour government will rest. What we need as a first step is information. We would like evidence of any wrongdoing or stitch-ups during the selection process. We would like to build a collection of evidence about the ways in which bureaucrats forced through or manipulated the selection process, including in the finalisation of longlists and shortlists, and, where it happened, the decision being removed from local democratic decision making altogether. We are particularly interested in the vote tallies from every Labour candidate selection between 2022 and 2024. These have not been routinely published. We are particularly interested in tallies that distinguish between postal/online/and in-person votes. These different vote tallies would have been provided to losing candidates. Sometimes they were only read out in selection meetings. We are not only looking for results that seem ‘dodgy’ – but all vote tallies, including those that are not in the least suspicious. This will allow us to build a holistic database and rigorously test different hypotheses. We would also like tallies from candidate selections in seats that weren’t Labour targets and didn’t result in any MP. Ideally, it would be great if we could be provided with contemporaneous evidence of these vote tallies – such as a screenshot of a message or email relaying the result. We would also be interested in narrowing down which CLPs used Anonyvoter for MP selection, even if the vote tallies are not available. Please send any information you think is relevant to the selection of the current PLP toresearch@shadowworldinvestigations.org. And please share this call for evidence widely!

Thanks @PulaRJS !!! Please all share if you can! Submissions of evidence are made to research@shadowworldinvestigations.org

⚡️New from @DropSiteNews: How Secret Pro-Israel Money Flooded the Labour Party and Ended with a Ban of Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur Story by Paul Holden dropsitenews.com/p/hasan-pik…

@hasanthehun said that he couldn't believe he was banned from the UK by a Labour government. But this is not a Labour government: it is a Labour Together government. Honoured once again to write for the inimitable @DropSiteNews and to draw the links between the ban on @cenkuygur & @hasanthehun and the sordid history of Morgan McSweeney and Labour Together's war on journalism, free speech and those speaking truth to power about Israel. Includes newly released documents about how me, my family and colleagues at like @andrewfeinstein were targeted by Labour Together because of my factually accurate reporting on the Labour Together Project & the unlawful slush fund that delivered us a Starmer government.
