Novara Media revealed that a leading figure in Kier Starmer's campaign had extensive links to Owen Smith's leadership bid in 2016. When asked if others from the Smith campaign were also involved in Starmer’s leadership Keir's office did not respond #LabourLeaks #Pfizer #Pharma
Keir had a campaign website, the controller for this DATA, according to the site itself, is a company called Movement for Another Future Limited. Alexandre Samuel Barros-Curtis is the sole director of Movement for Another Future Limited. Alex controls the DATA. #LabourLeaks
According to his LinkedIn profile, Barros-Curtis’s day job is as a consultant solicitor “Providing specialised legal advice in the area of derivatives and structured finance” in particular “Hedging, project financings, securitisations, credit derivatives” #LabourLeaks #HedgeFund
He has worked extensively on derivatives and structured finance matters in Europe and Hong Kong; as well as formerly working for the Clinton Foundation. Asked to comment on Mr Barros-Curtis and his role in the party Labour said they do not discuss staffing issues. #LabourLeaks
“For anyone seeking to stay in their jobs it would not be sensible to disobey the new managers’ requests. The manager has also been given the power to step in and make decisions himself about cases if need be.” #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut #DATA
''Labour's executive director for legal affairs, who sits above the head of the party's GLU unit, is Alexander Barros-Curtis. He was the DATA controller for the Keir Starmer *leadership campaign*. The party's disciplinary apparatus is supposed to be 'impartial.'' Aaron Bastani
But who hacked? - The Labour party formally reported two members of Sir Keir's team - one of them is his compliance official accusing them of hacking into the party's membership database. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51432440
Starmer's team members were accused of what's called "DATA - scraping" - seeking to obtain certain information from a wider set of data. Was the compliance offical Mr Barros-Curtis?, after all he is also the DATA controller for Keir's campaign website. https://librarycarpentry.org/lc-webscraping/aio.html
The Labour Party had previously reported a data breach to the ICO after MPs resigned to join the Independent Group, funded by multi-millionaire pro-Israel lobbyist Sir David Garrard (“cash for peerages” scandal Tony Blair) a major financial backer of Labour Friends of Israel
The team allegedly combed through the central party database to obtain a subset of information about members. Hacking into the members database to gain an unfair advantage is cheating. Is Keir's position as LOTO legitimate? £300,000 on Posters👇 #StarmerOut #LabourLeaks
Was this "DATA - scraping" information stored and later used against ''Corbynistas'', left wing Jewish members, Palestinian supporters?. I hope not but many members have been purged. Keir and his staff have some serious questions to answer. #StarmerOut https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/b/labour-leader-accused-of-direct-political-interference-in-purge-of-party-members
