Christopher Steele, the disgraced former British spy behind the Russia hoax dossier, says the British intelligence community will target Reform Party leader Nigel Farage. Steele predicts the Security Service, a.k.a. MI5, will seek to establish connections between the Brexit populist, who is calling out Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer over the two-tier policing of riotous anti-mass migration protests and counter-protests, and the Kremlin.
The Secret Intelligence Service (SIS/MI6) alumnus says MI5 “will be looking very carefully” at Farage and anti-grooming gangs activist Tommy Robinson, describing them as “the instigators” of anti-immigration disorder and alleging they “said that we were being misinformed by the government about Southport.”
A deadly mass stabbing of multiple young girls in Southport, allegedly by a migration-background teenager, prompted the current protests, with Farage publicly questioning whether or not he was already known to MI5—like some previous mass killers.
Steele said MI5 will be “looking at things like their travel movements, who they’ve been in touch with, monetary transfers and so on, because that will reveal or not, as the case may be, a pattern of behaviour which can lead to some conclusions about the degree to which Russia has been interfering in this situation.”
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has already vowed to arrest social media users for “stirring up hatred” amid the protests, describing allegedly problematic posts as “online violence.”
Christopher Steele is infamous for supplying Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign with a discredited dossier alleging Russian influence over former President Donald J. Trump, eventually sparking an equally discredited federal investigation. Steele was later involved with a pro-censorship group seeking to ban War Room host and Trump advisor Stephen K. Bannon from social media.
