If you see any posts attacking Good Law Project soon – bear THIS in mind
Don’t feed the trolls: it seems that a worthy organisation of legal experts are about to face a storm of abuse on the social media – funded by a Tory contractor.
It looks like this plan is about to go south in a big way:
I know this sounds dramatic, but we hold copies of a "confidential" plan run by the Tory attack agency Topham Guerin to pay influencers to attack @GoodLawProject over the Christmas period.

Those who accept the offer – which bears the branding of Topham Guerin – are told they must “keep the brand confidential and not tag Palantir”. The briefing document is clear that Good Law Project is the only target. And the content must "go live before the New Year."

Already this propaganda scheme is attracting the kind of attention it deserves:

This might help you work out your own position on this matter:
Who is Topham Guerin?
It’s these two, Sean Topham (left) and Ben Guerin (right).
They have worked for the Saudi Arabian Government and Conservatives since 2019.
Of course they got a Covid Contract for £3m, and now apparently their focus is on attacking Good Law. pic.twitter.com/rGSYq16GEL

Meanwhile, the Good Law Project continues to provide useful information (with a view to court action) on government misdeeds like the following:
It's a day of the week with a 'y' in it – which means another Tory VIP PPE contract, this time involving two Tory peers: Lord Chadlington and Lord Feldman. https://t.co/3ca2YuEyr3

Well, the cat’s out of the bag, so let’s see what happens now.
This Writer’s hope is that nothing happens and Topham Guerin (and Palantir) make big noises about never having wanted to smear Good Law’s good name.
Otherwise, we can all have fun finding out where the money for this little wheeze has come from.
Shall we do that instead, guys?
But here’s a serious question: if this little wheeze has been discovered now, how many other such wheezes have been carried out – successfully – in the past?
