Some of you may recall that the interview with Fusion GPS was leaked a while back. It's a long old thing but recently people noticed something. Fusion GPS think that Britians top Brexititier and all around smarmy bag of shit, Nigel Farage was acting as a go between for wikileaks and the trump campaign. In particular between Assange and trump.
You see old naughty Nigel had been visiting Assange in the ecudorian embassy and having a good old chit chat. A chit chat that Nigel simply doesn't want to talk about, even when he was pressed about it by a german reporter. Fusion however believes there was much more to it.
Now we all know just how much wikileaks has shilled for the Trump government. However there have been long held suspicions in the UK that Farage and the UKiP party have been involved with russia. Nothing concrete but the whiff of vodka has always been around.
Here is the part of the interview relating to Farage and his "Trips"
Pages 100-101:
MR. SIMPSON: And so, you know, some of it - so there's -- it really isn't, I don't think, that Cambridge is the nucleus. I think that it's there's some Bannon connections. I know there's - and there's some other Bannon Stone associates, a guy named Theodore Roosevelt Malloch, who was — is an American who was living over there and associating with UKIP and, I believe, is a significant figure in
this. So I don't - I had had some run into Cambridge and Analytica previously, and I would - there was a lot of skepticism about whether they really were capable about doing anything or whether they were just selling snake oil, and that was certainly my view when I first heard about them years earlier. So I don't view them as nucleus. The Mercers, I think are significant.
MR. SCHIFF: And, I mean, were you able to find any factual links between the Mercers and Assange or WikiLeaks or Farage?
MR. SIMPSON: Well, I mean, the things that we heard, which, you know, I think could be sorted out by an official inquiry are that Nigel Farage made a number of trips to New York and had a number of meetings — Nigel Farage and Air Bank had a number of trips to the U.S., and that they sort of — that there's been a misrepresentation of the length of that relationship and the extent of it. There's -- I've been told and have not confirmed that Nigel Farage had additional trips to the Ecuadoran Embassy than the one that's been in the papers and that he provided data to Julian Assange. IV1R. SCHIFF: What kind of data?
Tut tut Nigel....
