As the Labour Party Conference closes, here’s yet another documentary that Keir Starmer will be hoping won’t attract any media attention – so please tell everybody about it.
The world premiere of Labour: The Big Lie is currently taking place online. Visit this site to see it – but be quick because it’s only on until midnight on Thursday, September 29.
The premise is very simple: Jeremy Corbyn led a movement that caused shock waves in the global establishment. Who brought it down?
Narrated by Alexei Sayle, this 75 minute long documentary feature from Platform Films reveals an extraordinary story of intrigue and conspiracy that the mainstream media has systematically ignored.
There will a screening in a London cinema in the last week of October at a venue to be advised. It will be advertised on the Platform Films website at www.platformfilms.co.uk
This Writer has not seen it yet, so I can’t say how good or bad it is – although Alexei Sayle’s participation is encouraging.
So if you pop over and watch the film, be sure to come back and tell us all what you think of it.
Once more, with feeling (I’ve used this image many times): the PPE used in UK hospitals at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic is pictured bottom right. Instead of buying proper PPE from trusted providers, the Conservative government created a special back-channel to funnel cash to their cronies in return for faulty or unusable trash.
It’s less than seven minutes long and you need to know what it has to say.
The information in it is accurate – as far as it goes. This Site has published some of the facts before.
But this film, which was apparently projected against the walls of Parliament, puts it all in a nutshell.

SuperTory: this previous BBC attempt to make Rishi Sunak acceptable had just one thing right – the “£” sign on his chest, signifying that he exists for one thing alone: money.
Let’s get this straight: Tory chancellor Rishi Sunak is an out-of-touch money-grubber whose wife is richer than the Queen.
He has nothing in common with you.
But the BBC keeps trying to turn him into something acceptable – as if there was any such thing as a “cuddly Tory”.
Its latest attempt at a free party political broadcast for the Tories was broadcast today – Budget day – and received the roasting it deserved:
Obsequious, fawning idolatry of a party responsible for the worst covid response on the planet and 10 years of austerity, of war on the poor.
— Damo #JoinAUnion #20More4All (@Cornish_Damo) March 3, 2021
Steve Topple’s piece in The Canary* hit exactly the right notes:
BBC News‘s video was little more than a cuddly look at a man who, however you dress him up, is a Tory. He’s one who’s left some sick and disabled people in dire straits. Sunak is a man who’s ignored the plight of the so-called three million “excluded” people. Yet BBC News even went as far as to push the idea Sunak could one day be PM.
“Client journalism” is where the government uses reporters for its own agenda. Peter Oborne wrote about this for openDemocracy. He noted an example where both BBC and ITV political editors Laura Kuenssberg and Robert Peston quoted an unnamed government source in 2019. Here the news they put out was, as Oborne said, “fake” with no basis in fact. But the two corporate journalists pushed it anyway.
This latest BBC video, with its upbeat music, rapid-fire delivery, and glossy production reeks of client journalism. What the public needs on Budget day is critical and unbiased analysis of Sunak and his policies. It doesn’t need yet more pro-government propaganda from the BBC posing as something informative.
Damn straight. Now try complaining to the BBC about it. You’ll get a load of hogwash about “balanced reporting”.
*If you’re about to hit the ‘comment’ button to come out with a claim that “The Canary is unacceptable because…” then step away from the keyboard because you have been brainwashed.

Contagion: Matt Hancock (in his own mind), yesterday.
Tory ‘Death Secretary’ Matt Hancock has admitted he decided to order 100 million doses of anti-Covid-19 vaccine – not on the basis of expert advice but after watching the Hollywood blockbuster Contagion.
Matt Hancock tells Nick Ferrari he was inspired to order 100 million doses of the Oxford jab instead of 30 million because of the film Contagion, which taught him there would be a scramble for the vaccine.@NickFerrariLBC | @MattHancockpic.twitter.com/H8SQiVM9hw
And this comment could explain everything about the way the UK is currently being run:
Matt Hancock confirming that his response to the pandemic was helped by watching Contagion while Boris Johnson got a similar benefit from watching Mr Bean

The Empire Windrush brought many people to the UK to help rebuild the country after World War II. If it had still been in service a couple of years ago, the Tories would have been trying to use it to deport them all again.
Did you know the BBC is screening a drama based on the “Windrush generation” racism scandal?
It’s on this evening (Monday, June 8, 2020), starting at 8.30pm and the BBC appears to have done its best not to promote it in any way.
Make up your own mind on what that says about the BBC’s relationship with the Conservative government, whose racism is likely to be a major story element.
And make up your own mind on whether the Corporation’s reticence has anything to do with the death of George Floyd in the United States, and protests in support of people of colour that have taken place in the UK since it happened, culminating in the removal and sinking of Edward Colston’s statue in Bristol yesterday (June 7).
Fortunately, Radio Times at least mentions the play. It says:
Sitting in Limbo could hardly be more timely. Arriving at an extraordinary moment in history as the Black Lives Matter movement grows and as protests take place around the world, this feature-length BBC One drama shines the spotlight on the painful, raw and recent Windrush scandal.
Starring Patrick Robinson and written by Stephen S. Thompson, the factual drama is based on the real-life experiences of a Jamaican-born British man whose life was upended when the Home Office decided that he was actually here illegally.
Anthony has lived in the UK since he was eight years old, but when he decided to obtain a passport and visit his elderly mother in Jamaica, he learnt that there was no record of him as a British citizen. The onus was now on him to prove his citizenship to the Home Office.
Unable to claim his benefits and forced to leave his job, Anthony was left in limbo. He was later forcibly removed from his home and detained as an illegal immigrant, placing his story at the heart of the Windrush immigration scandal, which saw a government crackdown on the children of the “Windrush generation,” who unlike their parents often travelled without their own documents.
Thompson said: “Like everyone caught up in the Windrush scandal, Anthony has been severely traumatised by the experience. It has badly affected his confidence and left him questioning his very identity. As his brother, I saw what he went through first-hand. I couldn’t bear the idea that he had suffered in vain and it made me determined to tell his story. For me, this is personal.”

The second part of a BBC documentary series on Universal Credit has been aired – notably without contributions from people at one Job Centre.
People working at Toxteth Job Centre, in Liverpool, refused to take part – according to the Liverpool Echo.
The reason was that they did not want to be publicly associated with a documentary that puts forward the Tory government’s propaganda:
It was reported last year that there were problems in the filming of the Liverpool episode of the documentary because staff at the Job Centre didn’t want to be involved.
The internal note explained that staff were unhappy about being identified on screen.
With the volume of hardship and problems associated with Universal Credit in the city of Liverpool – it is thought staff didn’t want to be publicly associated with a documentary that the government is pushing forward.
The Tory government, and the Department for Work and Pensions, have been trying to make Universal Credit look better with propaganda campaigns.
A series of advertorials in newspapers last year fell foul of the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA).
It ruled the campaign in the Metro “exaggerated and misleading” and stated that there was “simply no evidence to back the Department for Work & Pensions’ (DWP’s) claims about people being better off on Universal Credit”.

Have you wondered why the Establishment – the mass media in step with the Conservative government and the suits behind them both – is so desperate to smear Jeremy Corbyn as an anti-Semite (or whatever they’re saying today) and Labour as unfit for government?
It’s because they have a lot to lose if a government is elected that will end the exploitation of the wider public and the domination of industry and the economy by a tiny few billionaires.
All of this is laid out in a very short film.
The Deep State has been made by Flying Tiger Productions and is available to view – free – on Facebook.
See for yourself – here it is:
The Canary has described it as follows:
“This important film exposes how the establishment uses the mainstream media, smears and deception to stay in power. The complex web of lies and misdirection they weave has been expertly unpicked and laid bare by our friends at Flying Tiger Productions. Please watch and share widely.”
Yes – please watch and share widely.
Unless, of course, you enjoy having blinkers pulled over your eyes and wool stuffed into your ears by liars.
Your choice. But bear in mind that you have until Thursday to decide whether to change the UK for the better, or leave it to get worse.

First – an apology. This Writer misconstrued a press release about the new documentary Reaching over the noise – Is Labour really Anti-Semitic?
I mistakenly believed the documentary was all but finished and people were being invited to a screening, at which more filming would take place.
In fact, people were being invited to come and take part in the documentary, offering their own views on the so-called Labour anti-Semitism crisis.
Next – som facts: Indy Media Productions, the crew behind the film, has been making it in response to the BBC Panorama documentary Is Labour Antisemitic? that was riddled with falsehoods and gave an inaccurate impression of the situation in the Labour Party
Anyone with left-wing political loyalties is welcome to attend the event at the Britons Protection in Manchester.
The meeting will be captured on film and used in the final scene of the documentary (and also in the trailer).
Tickets are available from this site. The 50p price is only so organisers can gauge the numbers attending.
“There is an election taking place and the antisemitism narrative is being used against us,” said a spokesperson for the production company.
“It is vital that during this election, as Labour supporters and Labour members, we hit these allegations head on and state exactly where we stand.
“We are not racists. We are not anti-Semites. We are just people who care deeply about injustice, equality, poverty and homelessness.
“If we don’t speak out and state exactly what we stand for, others will do it for us and what they say will not be the truth.
“We are hoping to capture footage of as many speakers as possible but we may also ask questions of some that attend to get their opinions on the allegations of institutional anti-Semitism made against Labour.
“This is your opportunity to have your voice. It is time for those on the left to speak out and not be silent. There is a lot at stake at this election and a lot to lose.”
Finally – the unpleasantness: Almost immediately after my original article went up, managers of the original venue were subjected to abuse from the kind of bigots responsible for the false “anti-Semitism” narrative.
Here’s an example of the kind of message they received (now edited to stop Facebook shocking readers when I try to share it):
Yeah.
Hard to believe these people are claiming the moral high ground, isn’t it?
They never succeed in stopping the facts from getting out; they just show themselves up for what they are.
To attend the event, use the link above and you’ll receive directions. Enjoy it!
